September 30, 2020, 12 PM sharp.
Both John and Hamlet were sweating from exhaustion.
However, neither of them looked tired.
The two were still happily training.
John checked the time on his watch.
He stopped training and said to Hamrez, who was training in his punches, “Come, go somewhere with me.”
Hamlets didn’t hesitate. He nodded at John and said, “Okay.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Both of them entered a washroom.
They took a hot shower and changed into new clothes.
John was still in his never-changing casual outfit.
As for Hamlet, he was wearing an explosive black leather coat. As he stood there, his childish face revealed a hint of handsomeness.
John said to Hamlets who was standing behind him, “Let’s go.”
Eric State’s core business center.
The buildings of the three major corporations were all located in the center of this area.
These three buildings represented Eric State’s front.
There were also other big companies located here. Companies and corporations with a market value of several billion or more all had their headquarters built in this luxurious commercial city center.
This commercial city center was a truly luxurious and high-cla.s.s location in Eric State.
No other place in Eric State was comparable to here.
John led Hamlet to Victoria Corporation’s underground parking lot.
September 30, 2020, 12.31 PM.
John called Victoria again.
He didn’t wait long.
The call went through.
John smiled and according to the steps in Foresee, said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Miss Victoria, I spoke to you this morning.
“You must leave five minutes later than usual at 7.30 PM today, which means you must leave at 7.35 PM.
“Because someone wants your life.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the person at the other end of the phone could no longer remain calm. It was obvious that her steady breathing had become hurried.
A cold voice sounded on the other end of the phone and said to John, “Who are you?
“Who exactly are you?
“Why do you have my number? And why did you tell me all these things?”
According to Foresee, John didn’t need to say anything now.
He only had to wait a few seconds for Victoria to ask him to go meet her.
As expected, Victoria’s cold voice sounded again, “Who are you?
“Can I see you? Where are you now? I’m in Victoria Corporation’s office.”
But John ignored her. He only said, “It doesn’t matter who I am. I hope you will do as I say.”
Then, he ended the call.
On the other side of the call, hearing the beeping sound in the phone,
Victoria couldn’t help but frown.
She thought: “Who exactly is this man who called me?
“Can his words be trusted?”
Then she shook her head and said self-mockingly, “Hehe, it’s probably just a fool threatening me.
“If someone really wanted to kill me, how could I not know anything?
“I never thought that I would be affected by a stranger’s phone call.”
After hanging up, John’s eyes lit up.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
‘She’s probably feeling dismissive of me on the other end of the phone.
‘After all, no one would easily believe a call from an unknown number and tell him that someone wanted to kill him. No normal person would believe that, right?’
Including John himself.
John chuckled.
‘I don’t need you to believe me at all. I just wanted you to know
that there is someone who is secretly observing everything, making you feel that you have no secrets to speak of.’
Hamlet, who was beside John, looked at the strange smile on his face and felt a little puzzled.
He didn’t understand John’s purpose for doing this, but he didn’t ask.
Up to this point, Hamlet also didn’t know that John’s true strength was the terrifying Foresee ability.
He also didn’t know that John could even play the entire world into his hands.
He only knew that John was strong in martial arts.
And that he would have a good life following John.
He wouldn’t ask what John was up to.
He just needed to know that he just had to follow orders.
After John was done with matters here.
He left the bustling city center with Hamlet.
They arrived at a decent-sized restaurant.
After ordering two dishes and soup, the two of them started eating.
After eating and drinking to their heart’s content.
John said to Hamlet, “I observed that you’ve always been wearing this black coat.
“Don’t you have any other clothes to change into?”
Hamlet shook his head and said to John, “I don’t have much spare money, so I’ve been wearing this outfit since I was young.
“This is also the only property I have.”
John looked at the slightly pitiful-looking Hamlet who was standing before him.
His heart couldn’t help but feel moved.
In this world.
Powerful people live a life of luxury, while those who lived at the bottom of society lived a life of hunger.
They didn’t even have any decent clothes.
John loathed the age of capitalism.
Because it was this kind of capitalist who destroyed the life he once dreamed of.
In the past, John also lived at the bottom.
He was deeply aware of the suffering of these people.
Therefore, he wanted to establish an organization that was above all other dark forces and control everything in the world.
So that he could let all the poor in the world live the life they want.
This was John’s greatest wish.
John also knew that even if he established the largest dark force,
there were also places where the light couldn’t reach.
However, even if he could only illuminate one territory, he would do it without hesitation.
This was the kind side of John.
The righteous and evil John
actually have more kindness in his heart than evil.
His evil and terror were only given to his enemies or those bloodthirsty capitalists.
These people were squeezing dry the benefits and value of the people at the bottom.
They would squeeze dry all the benefits they could obtain from the poor, and when they no longer have any value, these d.a.m.ned capitalists would kick these people away.
What John wanted to do for these people living at the bottom of society
was to establish an environment where they could depend on for their survival.
Although it wasn’t exactly a life of luxury, at least they could have a stable life.
They would have enough food to eat, be able to buy new clothes, and could afford to send their children to school.
And building a huge dark force was enough to fulfill this wish of his.
It could satisfy his compet.i.tive desire to conquer.
John didn’t want to return to that weak, helpless life.
He needed to establish a huge force so that everything would be under his control and no one could defy him.
John was as ambitious as some capitalists.
But there was kindness in John’s heart.
He hoped that this force he was building could illuminate the world.
And bring a trace of light to those who lived in the shadows.
