88: Chapter 88: Quality Needs Improvement

Times had changed. With enough "props" in his warehouse, Lin Fang no Long Er feared this body being imprisoned, abused, whipped, or even hypnotized.

He could not only commit suicide but also instantly kill everyone around him.

Inside the conference room, someone showed a look of anger.

The leader at the head of the table chuckled, showing no signs of anger, and simply looked at Lin Fang, saying, "These two Worlds are indeed desirable, but they do not contain the soil for our survival."

"Presumably, they would not welcome our arrival; that would only lead to conflict."

The old man sighed slightly, "And abandoning our homeland to fight among our own kind is not something I wish to see."

Hmm... Lin Fang was uncharacteristically silent. Could he say that he had just seen a light in this old man? Especially when the old man knew that the opposing World's development level was decades behind theirs, and all it would take was throwing a MOSS over there to let the other side know what a gap really meant.

Of course, one could not rule out the possibility that he was testing him. Just like in that immigration propaganda video, Lin Fang, the great villain, had overtly and covertly encouraged how easy it was to bully these two Worlds and that they could wage wars of aggression.

"Then can I take things as I please?" Lin Fang was very concerned about his own interests, then continued, "Otherwise, I will go ask other countries."

As soon as these words were out, Lin Fang felt the pressure surge. He was almost glared to death by the others, especially the old man in the military uniform, who slammed the table, losing his previous gentle demeanor. His murderous gaze made Lin Fang feel as if two holes had been burned into him.

If the matter of the parallel Worlds were to spread, the already sci-fi United Government would collapse in an instant, and this World would completely lose its future.

"Let me tell you another story. The future of this Earth begins with a strange prophecy you received in the year 4044..."

Before they could make a move, Lin Fang spoke again. He prepared to drop spoilers to increase his bargaining chips.

Inside the conference room, the old man with three teeth smiled. From the top-secret information of 4044 to the Moon Fall Crisis guided by MOSS, and then to the plot of the Wandering Earth I, Lin Fang added embellishments and fabrications as he spoiled the future summarized from movies and novels.

Regardless of whether it was right or not, the priority was to bluff them first.

As Lin Fang spoke, an undisguised horror appeared in the eyes of the few leaders. How did he know? Everything matched up!

"In the end, MOSS achieved mechanical ascension. The Returnists, thinking the Sun's helium flash was a scam, drove the last 5,000 people of the United Government to the surface at minus 100 degrees, leaving them to die outside. They then spent 100 years driving the Earth back to the solar system, and just as the Returnists were cheering, the helium flash erupted, and the Earth exploded too..."

The whole "plot" took half an hour to finish. Lin Fang looked regretful, because even he believed it himself.

But the effect of this mix of truth and lies was remarkable, even better than Lin Fang had expected. The people in front looked grave, not knowing what they were thinking.

A moment later, one of them said coldly, "How can we verify that what you said is true?"

Lin Fang's expression was indifferent, "You don't have to believe it; it's just a story."

[Evacuation Countdown: 00:20:36]

The conference room fell into a long silence again. The leader at the head of the table suddenly laughed and rubbed his temples with his fingers.

"Humanity, always consuming the sparks of civilization in endless strife. Only when the last glimmer of light is extinguished do we realize in horror that what we have destroyed is the future of the entire race."

"Sir, what can we obtain?"

This last sentence was directed at Lin Fang, startling him awake from his boredom, during which he had started fantasizing about what to have for lunch after evacuating. It seemed it was a success.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Fang said, "A hope, or perhaps you could say, my attention."

[Evacuation Countdown: 00:01:06]

"Looks like he's gone. Did you write down everything he said?"

"Strange things happen every year, and now someone pops up to steal things. Is he very poor? Is the youth from the parallel World's Central Continent so rude? This is a table made of yellow rosewood!"

"His decorum needs improvement."

"Sigh, let's think about what to do next. I almost had a cerebral hemorrhage listening to that just now. Those Returnist bastards..."

In a daze, Xie Ming seemed to hear voices of discussion. Had the Angel left his body? Where was he now? Where was his granddaughter Ruoxi?

Xie Ming opened his eyes and was terrified by the scene before him. In the empty conference room, several dignified and solemn people were surrounding him, speaking words he couldn't understand at all. What shocked Xie Ming even more was that he seemed to have seen these people on TV. Where had the Angel brought him!

"Not bad, though it's a bit big. Long Yi, Long Er, come over and eat too."

After replacing the dining table that he had accidentally broken a corner off of, Lin Fang ate the lunch prepared for him by these two Clones. It was delicious, fragrant, and visually appealing, covering the whole table.

"Understood, BOSS." The two Clones began to eat in a rigid, proper manner, with every bite of food and soup following a fixed cycle.

Long Yi and Long Er were two of the five Clones into which Lin Fang had initially implanted the Hades Chip. They had Asian tough-guy faces. After Lin Fang returned to Coastal Sea, they also rushed back to the country from Switzerland, responsible for external security while Lin Fang was exploring.

They also cooked part-time; after all, Force Field training consumed a lot of energy, and a high-energy intake every day was essential.

After lunch, Lin Fang left the steel Villa in the suburbs of Coastal Sea, preparing to take the time to visit the Binhai City branch of Third-Party Technology.

Unlike the headquarters located in Tiangang City, the focus here was related to the Internet, including businesses like browsers, logistics network services, short video, and reading platforms.

It was doing quite well, its domestic popularity was no less than that of leading enterprises, and the daily income was a huge number.

But it was far from comparable to the Metabolix Diet Pills; this was the true cash cow! Lin Fang was also tongue-tied when he saw the revenue of these pills, which had already been launched in most countries. Last month, because of these pills, Third-Party Technology brought in 12.6 billion, and that was in U.S. dollars! These heavyweights were truly crazy.

At this rate, it wouldn't be long before Lin Fang became the richest man in the country. The prerequisite was that he could hold onto it.

Seemingly thinking of something, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of Lin Fang's mouth.

"BOSS, we are here." Hearing Long Yi, who was driving, speak, Lin Fang snapped back to reality.

In his view was a magnificent fifty-plus-story building, no Long Er the six-story building on the outer ring from last year. At the entrance, the Third-Party Technology logo shone in the Sun.

He was truly rich now, Lin Fang couldn't help but sigh. He had come here because he wanted to make an attempt.
