Chapter 424: Chapter 226: The Champion Has Already Been Decided by Me_2

Among the employees, none are more excited than Fei Guang and the others.

The Iron Armor Corps players involved in the operation each earned a full two hundred thousand in performance. This achievement is enough to promote them to Level 2 employees with room to spare, and all they did was guide the boss over a wall.

In their eyes, Wu Chang not only recruited them against the odds, but also led them to earn substantial achievements. He is practically one of the top ten bosses in the Abyssal Game that moved them emotionally. Their loyalty to Wu Chang skyrocketed.

Fei Guang and the others were now smiling from the bottom of their hearts. If they knew that their department manager Sean was not a local, but a player just like them, who knows if they could still laugh.

After the same operation, they increased their performance by two hundred thousand, while Wu Chang’s grew by two billion.

It can be said that from this moment on, in the competitive sideline of the instance, the champion has been preordained by Wu Chang, and other players can only vie for second place.

With this thought, the corners of Wu Chang’s mouth curled even higher, his smile growing ever more radiant.

This is the gold standard of a "True Walker."

The department’s celebration didn’t last long before being interrupted by a woman wearing a gold name badge over her chest. Her title as assistant to the chairman caused everyone to instantly quiet down and return to their workstations in silence.

The woman smiled at Wu Chang, saying, "Manager Sean, the chairman would like to see you."

Wu Chang nodded and said, "Let’s go."

As the elevator stopped on the 99th floor, Wu Chang stepped once more into an office akin to the Schultz Library, but this time, his back was straight.

Wu Chang was mentally prepared for Schultz’s summons.

In the city of Willdow, or even the entire Federation, the wealthy enjoy special privileges.

The chaos is kept out of rich neighborhoods as an unwritten rule because both the Federation and Hymn Company rely on these big spenders for profit.

Even Farrell, who was insane enough to arrange shootings at kindergartens and elementary schools, let the gunmen avoid the private schools in affluent areas during the attacks.

However, his actions today have clearly crossed the line.

Passing through the rows of bookshelves, Wu Chang arrived at Schultz’s desk, seeing that Schultz wasn’t reading but leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, listening to the piano notes from a vinyl record.

As the CEO of the most technologically advanced company in the world, Schultz had a fondness for old items. Rather than the state-of-the-art sound systems worth millions of Federation Coins, he preferred the vintage allure of a record player.

Wu Chang’s footsteps were light, but Schultz opened his eyes as he approached.

Schultz scrutinized Wu Chang, as if assessing the latest experimental product from the Hymn Company laboratory.

"Sean, people often tell me that when a man senses the weight of responsibility on his shoulders, it takes only an instant to mature from childishness to understanding. I’ve always doubted this notion because, as I see it, an adult whose worldview is already formed won’t easily awaken without a concrete blow."

"But what happened with you has proven me wrong. Your resolve is stronger than I imagined, and your thoughts are clearer."

At this point, Schultz stood up, approached Wu Chang, and embraced him.

"Sean, welcome to the world of adults."

Wu Chang patted Schultz on the back, lightly saying, "Come on, you’re only a few years older than I am."

Schultz gestured for Wu Chang to sit and then returned to his office chair, asking:

"What are your thoughts about tonight?"

Wu Chang shrugged, "Honestly, not many thoughts. I just feel that as long as I let go of certain things, I can gain a lot more."

Schultz chuckled, "A good experience. If you had realized this sooner, you could’ve saved me quite a bit of trouble."

Taking advantage of Schultz’s good mood, Wu Chang asked casually, "I have few reflections, but I do have a few questions."

Schultz said, "Go ahead."

Seeing that Schultz didn’t mention the overstepping issue, Wu Chang took the initiative to address it.

"Will my actions negatively affect Hymn Company?"

Schultz shook his head indifferently, "Of course not, this is Willdow City, and you are Sean."

Schultz’s response was simple yet powerful.

Wu Chang continued to ask, "I assume Moritz should be aware of my actions, but why are he and the owners of Oslun Manor not angry, but instead..."

He paused for a moment and said with an uncertain tone, "Instead, they are very excited."

Schultz adjusted the books on his desk, speaking softly:

"Because I showed them the Essence Armor. Even Moritz has never seen a finished Essence Armor. For people like them, money is merely numbers; what they are more interested in is the future."

"The future of the world, and their own future."

Wu Chang suddenly realized: "So that’s it."

So that’s it? Definitely suspicious!

The Sean that Wu Chang embodied, like members of the Management Bureau, handled the instances chaotically but was adept at understanding his own people.

Sean had thoroughly studied Schultz. According to the intelligence in Sean’s memory, if Schultz was about to lie or conceal something, he would fidget slightly with the books.

Sean had noticed this habit of Schultz’s early on but never mentioned it.

The recent book adjustment by Schultz, to Sean, was a clear sign that Schultz had something to hide.

Wu Chang certainly did not expose Schultz. He asked, "One last question: as I am now, do I meet the standard?"
