Chapter 1358: Chapter 1356: Commencement of Work

[Black Tower – Lower Area]

Just as Han Dong had guessed.

Upon making contact with the Black Tower, Handsome Jack had completely lost interest in Pandora… The Black Tower that connects and manages thousands of worlds was his true belonging.

However, this time when he returned to the Black Tower, his expression wasn’t great.

“Didn’t expect to be outplayed by a newbie who’s just opening the gate~ That’s really annoying…

But then again, how many young people who are just opening the gate could accomplish what he did with the Pandora’s Magic Box, and even dare to negotiate terms with me.

And what’s strange is, despite being a life from [S-01], how could he have established a connection with the Black Tower?

Let’s check out his background.”

Handsome Jack, already a ‘Senior Employee’ within the Black Tower, had made a fortune using his business-savvy brain.

He went to the nearby office, where, for a small fee and by providing an employee number, one could obtain basic information that’s publicly available.

“Hmm? His positioning is human, not a Demon?

Strange, aren’t the Demons in [S-01] world completely enslaving humans, using them as lower-class servants? How have they given them the chance to develop freely… Could there be some hidden reason?

Besides being a formal employee, he’s also a member of the [Fight Club]? A madman, huh? No wonder he could talk to me calmly.”

Just then, a thick hand rested on Jack’s shoulder, accompanied by an extremely dangerous aura of resentment.

“Young bro, why are you checking Han Dong’s info?”

“Hmm?”

Jack turned around with an annoyed look on his face, to find a headless, muscular man with a face full of horizontal flesh standing behind him, with a capable-looking skeleton by his side.

In terms of level, the three were equal.

However, this was the Black Tower Office, and causing trouble was not allowed.

“What’s it to you? Is checking an employee’s information any of your business?”

Headless pointed his finger at the portrait on the documents, and a resentful voice emerged from his long-haired neck:

“Han Dong is one of our club members, and also a good friend of mine… If he’s offended you in any way, I hope you could show some mercy.

Otherwise, if we find out something happened to him, and it’s related to you,

the club will come after you with all its might.”

Jack scratched his stitched-together handsome face, revealing a very amiable smile, “Oh! So you two are friends from the Fight Club.

Don’t worry, I have no issues with this young man, Han Dong.

Moreover, we’re business partners!”

“Business?” Headless was curious, but also recalled something, “Speaking of which, shouldn’t that kid Han Dong currently be busy dealing with the trouble the Black Tower is causing in the [S-01] world?”

“Not at all.

It seems you don’t quite understand the situation of this little brother. The specifics are roughly like this…”

Following Jack’s detailed explanation of the world’s separation, Headless’s entire body of fat crowded together, anger and resentment interweaving, with his neck’s black hairs standing on end.

“The Black Tower is really playing dirty.”

Jack spread his hands, “Right, I warned the lad, advised him to come back and do business with me… but he insisted on staying there.

The Black Tower is playing rough this time, clearly a warning to those Demons, the death rate is starting to get pretty high.

Ah~ I’m quite worried about him too.

If he does make it back alive, please ask him to contact me as soon as possible.”

…

The scene returns to the Hyperion Corporation headquarters.

Whew!

Han Dong could finally breathe a sigh of relief as he watched Handsome Jack leave the Pandora world through the space-time rift device designed for single-person use.

“He’s at the same level as Headless, a lower-class Old King… but the pressure is completely different.

Lucky I held firm, otherwise this negotiation would have been tough to settle.

I wanted to ask more about the world core issue, but Jack’s patience was at its limit; I was afraid he might just shoot me dead on the spot.”

It had been a long while since he felt such immense pressure. The recent conversation had Han Dong risking his life as a wager, with the entire dialogue directly affecting the world’s strategic layout.

“Nevertheless, the outcome was acceptable.

Leaving aside making money… at least Jack won’t intervene in the entire war situation, and I’ve gained direct management rights over Hyperion Corporation.

Even without the opportunity to inquire about the world core, with control over Hyperion Corporation, I can definitely find related intelligence.”

Just then.

Boom! A loud noise came from below.

The several meter-thick steel floor was forcibly torn apart by a black claw, as Green arrived here, his head crowned with data cables.

Behind him followed Dumps and the robot Little Yellow who was responsible for leading the way.

The legendary Black Blade was already in Green’s hand, ready to wreak havoc.

Also noteworthy, a string of heads hung at Green’s waist… they were the heads of other contestants he had executed during the beauty contest.

“Hmm? Just the two of you… Where is that guy called Handsome Jack?”

“That’s been taken care of. Jack has left the world, and the ownership of Hyperion Corporation is all mine.”

Upon hearing this, Green looked disappointed. “Ah, that’s boring… By the way, what level was that Jack guy?”

“A King, likely a lower-class King.”

“Lower-class, huh…” Green stroked his chin, “If I used all of my hidden cards, I could probably have a close fight… but this is his territory, and the risk of defeat and death would be very high.

Hmm~ Mr. Nicholas, not bad, not bad!”

Although Green was mad, he still had a sliver of reason in front of absolute rank restraint.

The robot Little Yellow, on the other hand, was spinning around in extreme excitement. In its mechanical brain, Jack was an unyielding dictator, a Tyrant… and such a person had willingly transferred company shares and left.

Just as Little Yellow was about to ask Han Dong how he managed it.

Han Dong’s hand was already on its mechanical head.

“Little Yellow, you are certainly more familiar with Hyperion than I am. According to the original plan, you’ll be in charge of the overall control of the corporation.

From now on, you are the [Chief Engineer].”

“Yes!” Little Yellow danced with joy, the excited voice coming out through the speakers: “We can use Hyperion Corporation’s highest network privileges to trace back the mastermind behind Little Pink’s death.”

“Finding the controller of the ‘World Network’ is just one thing; to crush the opposition, relying on us alone is not enough.

There are a few other things I hope you can achieve in the short term, Little Yellow.

First, I want to use the remaining forces on the planet to form an army that isn’t afraid of death, and the [Metal Zombies] lurking at the bottom of the company are a good example.

We need you to attract meatballs on Pandora to Hyperion Corporation through broadcast, energy lure, and other means. It would be best if you could restore the planet’s station system.

At the same time, completely release the infective bacteria from the Organic Research Institute, allowing them to flood all areas of the corporation.”

Little Yellow asked with a puzzled look: “Metal Zombies might not fear death, but they’re equally uncontrollable… What’s the use of them?”

“They should be controllable now… The core strain that caused this series of mutations is in my body; combined with my mental powers, I can have a strong army.”

“The strain! No wonder Jack left the company… Is there anything else, Mr. Nicholas?” Little Yellow’s reference to Han Dong had completely changed.

“Second, extract information about the world core from the company’s database.

Any slight piece of related information, remember to compile it all.

Third, fully restore Hyperion’s military production lines. I can provide high-purity yttrium gold… Since we’re building an army, we must ensure the quality is up to standard.”
