Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest-Chapter 1325 Star Sea (130)
Chapter 1325: Chapter 1325 Star Sea (130)
Holy Capital, Wanhai Tower. freeweɓnovel-cøm
As the headquarters of the Wanhai Group, the Wanhai Tower, with its height exceeding 1500 meters, is undoubtedly one of the iconic buildings in the core area of the Imperial Capital, its unique design extremely striking.
And the top floor of this tower is the office and residence of Wanhai Group’s helmsman, Wan Yaokun.
This Earl, ranked among the top hundred on the Empire’s rich list, enjoys standing in front of the giant floor-to-ceiling window, smoking cigars while overlooking the bustling scenery of the Holy Capital.
The feeling of standing above the clouds and gazing down at the multitude is absolutely wonderful.
Of course, many times, there is also a charming secretary kneeling before him.
Yet today, Wan Yaokun has no interest at all, his face unusually gloomy, a storm brewing between his brows, making dozens of high-level executives in the conference room uneasy.
"Continue."
Wan Yaokun’s gaze is fixed on the window, his voice as cold and indifferent as ice.
A high-level executive swallowed, then switched the video on the wall screen, instantly displaying a photograph.
"Wang Chen, born in Long Sea City, Azure Star, later admitted to the Imperial First Military Academy, and enlisted the following year..."
The screen displayed the detailed information of Wang Chen.
The executive continued: "His first visit to Tampas Star was eleven months ago, and he rescued Xu Family’s direct heir, Xu Chengzhi, and returned to Tampas Star a month later..."
"I know all this!"
Wan Yaokun impatiently said: "What are your analysis results on him?"
The executive answered bravely: "The military department’s report lacks many details, making it difficult for us to accurately assess his strength, but he is considered the strongest superpower in the Empire, which should be indisputable."
"We therefore highly suspect that Wan Bangda’s death was orchestrated by him!"
"The group has already brought Wang Chen back to headquarters through connections with the investigation bureau for questioning, but due to Wang Chen’s special identity, we cannot use forceful means nor detain him for long."
"Useless!"
Wan Yaokun suddenly turned, throwing the cigar in his hand at the executive: "Do we feed dogs with the money Wanhai spends every year? Can’t even handle such a small matter, what good are they?"
The executive was struck in the face by the cigar, which was still sparking, causing him to twitch in pain but dared not retreat, meekly said: "We have already activated the line in the Military Department Marshal Office, preparing to arrest him under charges of violating military orders for further questioning."
"I’m leaving this matter to you."
Wan Yaokun said ominously: "No one can kill a member of our Wan family and walk away unscathed. You must pin down this Wang Chen, at any cost."
"By the way, what does the Xu Family say?"
Another executive stood up and replied: "The Xu Family has agreed to our terms and will transfer Xu Chengzhi to the Canglan Star Cluster for further service, ensuring no more trouble for Wanhai Group."
Wan Yaokun sneered: "That little bastard got lucky!"
Speaking of Xu Chengzhi, the teeth of Wanhai Group’s helmsman slightly itched.
If it weren’t for Xu Chengzhi’s frantic actions on Tampas Star, Wanhai Group wouldn’t be in such a passive position.
They’ve paid a colossal price for it.
The losses incurred exceeded the profits harvested on Tampas Star!
"You must handle the Tampas Star issue well, don’t give opponents a chance to strike, or else..."
While Wan Yaokun is chastising Wanhai Group’s core executives, a row of metal cabinets silently opens at the top of Wanhai Tower above his head.
Climber V-type Cleaning Robots are suspended onto the tower’s curtain wall by extended mechanical arms.
The Climber V-type is the latest model in the civil sector for external wall cleaning robots, equipped with low-grade artificial intelligence processing chips, its six-legged spider form enables it to climb freely on any walls, having a very high cleaning efficiency.
Thirty-six Climber V bases are installed at the top of Wanhai Tower, requiring only 24 hours to complete the glass curtain wall cleaning of the whole building.
Buzz, buzz, buzz~
Accompanied by the turning of motors, twelve Climber V robots simultaneously dive downward along the curtain wall.
Their rears are connected to a super alloy cable, normally descending at a constant rate of 1 meter per minute.
However, these twelve Climbers V descend incredibly fast, instantly reaching the next floor.
The very floor where Wan Yaokun is located!
Boom!
The huge glass curtain wall suddenly shattered into countless pieces as if hit by a powerful shell.
The construction cost of Wanhai Tower is extremely high, its materials first-rate, the glass wall’s strength and toughness very high, capable of resisting various weapon strikes.
Additionally, Wan Yaokun’s floor has an extra layer of special protective glass.
But under an invisible force, both inner and outer layers of glass simultaneously shattered into numerous fragments.
Wan Yaokun and a group of executives inside the conference room were caught off-guard, stunned.
It was only when the twelve Climber Vs swept in with roaring winds that they awoke from their daze, instinctively retreating.
Alas, it was too late!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The super alloy cables behind the twelve Climber Vs disengaged simultaneously, freeing the cleaning robots to wave their mechanical arms with deployable blades in a fierce charge towards Wan Yaokun and others.
Wan Yaokun faced an onslaught from three Climber Vs!
This Wanhai Group’s leader is no weakling; he is a certified B-grade War Professional of the Empire, though past middle age, his Physique rivals that of any young individual.
His reaction was swift, immediately pressing the personal terminal on his wrist as the Climber Vs lunged toward him.
Wan Yaokun cherished his life greatly, wearing a high-tech armor close to his body that could generate a defensive field upon activation to protect against external harm.
Although the field’s duration is short, it provides him the seconds needed to escape danger.
Yet Wan Yaokun astonishingly discovered his personal terminal was completely unresponsive!
The next moment, sharp blades thrashed against Wan Yaokun, shredding his clothes along with pieces of flesh.
"Ah!"
This Earl ranked among the Empire’s top hundred rich list couldn’t help but scream in agony, seeing himself sliced thousands of times, executed on the spot!
At this moment, this conference room, which has schemed countless conspiracies, has become a living hell.
Sounds of collision, screams, and wails interwoven.
When the tower’s guards burst into the room, the sight left them dumbfounded.
Some even vomited on the spot!
