In the evening.
When Hayashi River walked out of the laboratory, he saw the little girl holding a dry mop, dragging it back and forth in the room, doing the final cleaning work.
Unlike before, the little girl, Laknia, tied her hair up and simply tied it into two braids. She ran around the room, and the two braids swayed. With her petite body, she finally had the cute look of a little girl.
On the sofa in the hall, Blue Kitty sat there, watching dramas. This little guy had worn a pair of glasses since some time ago. It was multitasking to supervise the little girl's housework, and from time to time, it would pick up the optical screen to give a few pointers.
Laknia carried out the little blue cat's instructions unconditionally, as if treating this mysterious little guy as a teacher.
This scene was inexplicably strange …
"Mr. Chuan."
Seeing Hayashi River walk out, Laknia immediately stopped, stood far away, and bowed.
Hayashi River nodded slightly. "Why don't you use those cleaning machines? Why use this mop?"
The mop in the little girl's hand was not high-tech at all. There were all kinds of automatic cleaning tools available here.
Otherwise, with Hayashi River's busyness and Blue Kitty's laziness, if they really cleaned by hand, they would not be able to stand it.
The reason why they did not hire servants was because Hayashi River's residence always had to do some secret things. If it was exposed, it would not be good.
"Teacher Meow said that my body lacks exercise, so I'm not allowed to use those machines," Laknia said timidly.
Speaking of those cleaning machines, the little girl's eyes inexplicably showed some emotions, as if she had thought of some bad memories.
Hayashi River did not say anything. Blue Kitty's consideration was right. Laknia's body really needed exercise.
It would take quite a long time for such a berserk spiritual energy to be treated.
And the first step of treatment was to first have a healthy body. A weak body would only aggravate the berserk spiritual energy.
"If you have any questions, ask Little Meow. Also, wear this, it can relieve your headache."
Hayashi River threw a bracelet over, and the little girl took it. This bracelet was very exquisite, and it was also inlaid with gems. It looked like a work of art.
After putting it on, Laknia felt a cold sensation coming from the bracelet, making her mind clearer.
"This is …"
Laknia touched the bracelet, looked up and asked in surprise, "Is this really for me?"
Hayashi River nodded and didn't say anything else. He instructed the little girl to stay here and be good.
Then, he left.
"This bracelet is so beautiful!"
The little girl muttered to herself. She had never had anything like this before.
Meow …
The Blue Kitty called out from behind. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and clean up. It's almost time for dinner. Don't tell me you want to leave things till night time? Things should be done together.
Thud thud thud …
The little girl started running again. She was panting heavily in the hall, but she was running very happily.
Downstairs, in the hover car, the mossy voice sounded in the earpiece, "This little girl is very talented! She was born with such strong spiritual energy. Unfortunately, she had experienced too many hardships. The symptoms of her spiritual energy rioting would probably take at least seven or eight years to recover. She missed the best time to cultivate. Her future achievements will depend on her. "
Hayashi River held the holographic screen and looked at the things inside. It was the data from the bracelet, showing the little girl's current physical and spiritual conditions.
He had rushed to make this overnight. It could not only suppress Laknia's spiritual energy rampage, but also treat her symptoms.
"Being born with extraordinary talent might not be a good thing sometimes. This little girl is an example. In her heart, she might never want to cultivate spiritual energy in this life … "
Hayashi River's expression changed slightly. "The Foka Tower matter is over. It's time to return to the Sea-Ao Empire and uproot the Black Net organization. It's better to completely wipe this kind of organization from the world. "
"That's right. You've finally made up your mind! "Mossy Bone immediately said happily.
"It's not that I haven't made up my mind. It's just that I didn't have enough strength in the past. Oh right, the materials have been sent over. How long will it take to repair [Phantom of Void Bones]?" Hayashi River asked.
"At most four days. I'll control [Phantom of Void Bones] and bring people over." Mossy Bone calculated the time and gave a date.
Hayashi River did not say anything else. He started the hover car and drove toward the west side of the Foka Tower.
…
After the banquet at the city hall, the entire Foka Tower fell into a year-end celebration for the next four days.
Various media platforms were summarizing the victories of the Foka Tower army against the Oceanic Beast Army in the past year. Battle reports were posted one after another, and the citizens of the city were excited. It was as though the Oceanic Beast Army had been chased back to the White Nightmare Sea forever.
The atmosphere in the city was enthusiastic. The armed forces of the various kingdoms stationed in the city also began to work, writing reports on their achievements in the past year.
For the various kingdoms, these reports were necessary. This was their pride.
For the armed forces stationed here, these reports were even more indispensable. They had to fight for their military merits and for their own futures.
This was the busiest period of the year in the Foka Tower. The nerves of the people here had been tense for almost a year, and they could finally relax at this time.
These four days were also days of success for the president of the West River Society, Bapman.
A week ago, the accident in the machinery warehouse had caused West Peace Association to lose Gu Teng, but they had managed to get in touch with another young machine master from the mechanical hive, Lin Chuan, who had a strong background.
In these four days, Bapman had learned that although Hayashi River was young, he did not just have a strong background. He had a considerable amount of influence in the Mechanical Hive and even the Machinists Guild.
At least, in the Foka Tower, many things about the Machinists Organization that this young man said carried a lot of weight.
In just four days, the number of machinery parts that the West River Society had purchased from the machinery warehouse was more than in the past six months. This made Bapman very proud.
Fortunately, he had made a prompt decision that day to give up on Gu Teng and directly prepared a valuable gift to send to this young Mechanic's house. Otherwise, there would not be such a good thing.
"This is foresight. Foresight! I was able to sit in this position because of my sharp eyes … "
Sitting in the large office, Bapman was smoking a cigar and boasting to the two senior executives with a satisfied look on his face.
"President Bapman, although there is progress in the Machinists Organization, you still have to be careful of the North Chamber of Commerce. I heard that old thing, White-Beard, seems to be making some moves these days," a senior executive reported.
Hearing this, Bapman's face immediately darkened, and he glared at this subordinate. He was quite dissatisfied with this subordinate's untactful behavior.
At this time when he was the most proud, this subordinate had to mention the North Chamber of Commerce. Wasn't this just making things difficult for him?
This person's position would have to be lowered in the future …
Bapman took a puff of his cigar and looked at this subordinate, secretly making this decision.
The North Chamber of Commerce had always been a pain in Bapman's heart. They were both local forces of the Foka Tower and the overlord of the district.
However, the outside world's evaluation of the North Chamber of Commerce had always been higher than that of the West River Society.
Especially in these three years, the North Chamber of Commerce had successfully transformed into a force that could do well in both the underworld and the underworld. This made Bapman very jealous.
"White-Beard, this guy's proud days will only last for a few more years …"
Turning his head, Bapman looked out of the window. The night sky of the city always had a kind of frightening mystery.
"In another two years, the West Peace Society will accumulate enough power to uproot the North Chamber of Commerce. White-Beard, that bastard, and his son, I will kill them with my own hands …"
Bapman gritted his teeth. He touched his left rib, where there was a scar. It was left by White-Beard in a crossfire decades ago. It injured his internal organs and almost took his life.
It was also at that time that Bapman and White-Beard became mortal enemies. Later on, the two became the presidents of the West Peace Society and the North Chamber of Commerce respectively, and they were like fire and water.
"Just wait, it won't be long …"
As he muttered, Bapman had many doubts about the past. At that time, he had planted a spy and sold out White-Beard, putting him in a desperate situation. During the confrontation, White-Beard's injuries were obviously more serious than his. Later on, he was hunted down. How did that damned White-Beard survive?
Could it be that the Tauren's body was too strong? Even after such serious injuries, he did not survive and recovered even better than him …
At this moment —
Bapman suddenly felt that something was wrong. It was too quiet around him. To be exact, it was too quiet outside the window.
Admittedly, the office was soundproof, but he could still hear the faint sound of wind near the window.
But now, not a single sound could be heard. It was as if the whole world had suddenly fallen silent.
Something was wrong?!
Bapman's many years of experience with blood on the edge allowed him to react immediately. Without thinking, he opened the drawer and took out the four-star weapon.
Then, in a flash, under the dumbfounded gaze of his two subordinates, he opened the window and dashed out.
"President!?"
"President Bapman!"
The two senior attendants exclaimed in surprise. They immediately reacted and followed him.
Bang!
The window was opened, but there was no sound of wind. Instead, a terrifying surge of power sent Bapman and his two subordinates flying back to the office floor.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
Streams of energy pierced into the bodies of the three, causing them to lose their ability to move.
"Is this a powerhouse at the pinnacle of Realm Six?"
"A powerhouse at the pinnacle of Realm Six attacked the West Peace Society …"
Bapman's eyes widened, his expression full of horror. With his strength at Realm Five, being able to suppress him in an instant was not as simple as an ordinary Realm Six powerhouse. It needed to be at the pinnacle of Realm Six.
However, there were not many of such powerhouses in the Foka Tower. Yet, they attacked the West Peace Society. Bapman thought about it, but could not figure out which force it was.
A gang like the West Peace Society was considered a first-rate force in the Foka Tower. They were also the local tyrant, so they had good connections.
The armed forces of various kingdoms in the Foka Tower had to rely on the West River Society for many things. After all, the more official a force was, the more restrictions there were, and many things could not be done on their own.
In terms of influence in this city, the West Peace Society was even more popular than the branch of the black market. The latter was a strong dragon, but its focus was not here, so it could not suppress the local tyrant.
Who was it? Could they sit down and have a talk …
As he was thinking, a series of screams sounded. Even through the door, Bapman could tell that some of the screams were from his right-hand men, and one of his mistresses …
In an instant, cold sweat soaked his whole body. Bapman felt an inexplicable chill. Were they going to uproot the headquarters of the West Peace Society?
The screams came one after another, and they were getting closer. The other party had killed their way up from the first floor …
Outside the door, there was a sound of footsteps, but there was no movement. It seemed that a group of people stood outside the door and did not come in.
"Who? Who is it? How did the West Peace Society offend you? Please come out and give me a chance to apologize … "
Bapman shouted at the top of his voice. He did not want to die here. He was in the prime of his life, and he still had a long life to enjoy. He had amazing wealth in his hands. Even if he was not the president of the West Peace Society, he could still have ten lifetimes worth of wealth.
It was too aggrieving to die silently like this!?
Bang …
The door of the office was kicked open, and a tall figure stood in front of the door. He walked over and looked down at Bapman on the ground. It was a white minotaur.
"President Bapman, your West Peace Society has been fighting with the North Chamber of Commerce for so many years. Do you think we can reconcile with just a chance to apologize?" White Mane grinned and sneered.
"You … How is this possible?!"
Bapman's eyes widened in despair and disbelief.
He knew the strength of the North Chamber of Commerce very well. White Mane did not have the support of a peak level six powerhouse. Otherwise, the West Peace Society would have been defeated in these years.
Could it be that there was some powerful force supporting them …
Looking around, Bapman saw three people standing behind White Mane.
These three people were wearing cloaks, and their faces could not be seen clearly. However, the pressure was too suffocating. One of them was the peerless powerhouse who had sealed Bapman.
Three peak level six powerhouses!
Most likely three peak level six powerhouses!?
Bapman's scalp went numb, and he felt like his head was about to explode. The North Chamber of Commerce had the support of three peerless powerhouses?!
"How much did White Mane offer you? I am willing to pay double, no, ten times. The entire West Peace Society is at your disposal!" Bapman shouted.
The leader laughed and said indifferently, "The entire West Peace Society is at your disposal? Isn't that too troublesome? Wouldn't it be much easier to merge the entire West Chamber of Commerce into the North Chamber of Commerce? "
This person's tone was very calm, but there was a terrifying sense of oppression. Bapman had seen many leaders in his life, but none could compare to this person.
This was the kind of oppression that came from having the power to decide life and death, and having won countless victories …
Bapman had only seen this kind of oppression from Lieutenant General Feilong, but even this legendary general did not reach this level …
At this time, this person looked at White Mane and said, "President White Mane, you can handle the rest yourself. We will not interfere. "
White Mane nodded and thanked him for his help.
With that, this person led one of the people out.
The door closed, and another figure in a cloak spoke. An old voice rang out, "Bapman, do you still remember this old man …"
As he spoke, the figure lifted his hood, revealing a face full of wrinkles. In Bapman's eyes, it was as if he had seen a ghost.
"Old Mr. Aidan …" Bapman cried in horror. His face was as white as a sheet, without a trace of blood.
