Chapter 509 - Chapter 519 Begins

"Working 16 hours a day? And to ensure Level 5 concentration! 100% activeness! Are you fucking insane?" A company executive ferociously slapped his subordinate.

"Don't you see what time it is! If someone gets pushed too far and downloads Sun Jack, causing trouble, whose fault will it be? Yours or mine?"

"So, Boss! What should we do?" Li Zongxian asked timidly.

"Change it! Starting now, the internal work hours of the company are 13 hours! And you only need to ensure Level 2 concentration! Don't even check for activeness."

"But... will this... affect the progress..."

"What can we do! Damn it! Do you want to push someone into becoming Sun Jack and then get strangled to death by him? Also! The head office has sent down a directive! A 10% salary increase for all subsidiaries!"

"Holy shit! Really? Boss." The subordinate's face involuntarily broke into a smile.

"Smile! All you know is how to smile!" The supervisor angrily flung a transparent tablet at the other person, "You have no consideration for the company, do you know how much money the company has lost by giving out these benefits collectively? Damn Sun Jack!"

As he spoke, the supervisor, irritated, took out a drug chip from the drawer and directly inserted it into his neural slot. As the dopamine levels quickly adjusted, his furrowed brow gradually relaxed. "You're done here; go on. There was an accident in the mines, some people are protesting. Go there and settle them with money as quickly as possible."

"Under the current circumstances, the order from above is to maintain stability as much as possible until they figure out a solution for Sun Jack's move. Then find a way to earn this money back from them."

"Yes, sir!" Li Zongxian hurriedly boarded the Hover Car and rushed to the mining district.

Sitting in the Hover Car, and taking advantage of the break, he started looking through the attachments.

Through the attachments, he learned that to improve the mining efficiency in the new underground mining area, some miners' skin and organs had been modified to ensure they could work normally in the deep underground at a temperature of 120 degrees Celsius.

However, such modifications weren't free; they were on loan. Originally, if the miners had work, they could pay off the loan every week and still make some money.

But it turned out the quality of the mineral resources in the new underground mining area was problematic, and profits were low, so they simply shut down the whole mining area and fired all the miners.

Although it was done in accordance with the contract, after losing their jobs, these miners had to face high loans and also their completely disfigured bodies, which was why they were protesting.

If this had happened in the past, he could have just sent a company combat unit to suppress them, but that was not an option now. They had to be pacified with money to avoid another Sun Jack popping up.

As Li Zongxian was pondering over what kind of rhetoric he should use to represent the company in negotiations with the miners, accompanied by the Hover Car's rapid descent, he arrived at his destination.

The hatch opened, and as he smelled the dreadful air of the mining district, Li Zongxian couldn't help but frown and immediately activated his internal air filter before heading towards the mining area.

But before he had taken a few steps, with the earth-shaking, a building in the distance exploded into a fireball. Right after that, the huge mining area sign in the sky turned into the face of Sun Jack.

"Damn, I'm too late! They're already rioting for Sun Jack!" Li Zongxian was almost instinctively about to inform the corporate security department's special operations team, but he stopped as soon as he opened the contact list.

"Wait, if nothing has happened to the company yet salaries have already gone up by 10%, if Sun Jack causes more trouble, won't the salary double?" As he considered the impending salary increase, Li Zongxian's delighted grin was almost too hard to contain.

When he saw some miners emerge from the flames and begin a frenzied killing spree, he immediately yelled in anxiety, "Damn it! What are you guys doing? You mustn't take control of the large mining equipment in the mine to kill people! The efficiency is so much higher than fighting alone!"

Seeing the gigantic construction machinery come to life, using all sorts of tools intended for rocks now on humans, Li Zongxian immediately opened video feed to adjust his demeanor before reporting to his boss.

"BOSS, this is bad! I've come too late! The mining area has already started rioting for Sun Jack! 10% is far from enough! I think we need to raise it by at least 50%!!"

However, after waiting for a while, he got no reply, only to see his boss utter with a deadly pale face, "Look at the sky."

"The sky?" Li Zongxian abruptly raised his head and saw a pale gray metallic planet slowly emerging from the eastern clouds, its sheer size almost instantly causing goosebumps to rise on his skin.

And when he saw seven or eight spacecraft carriers following the giant metal planet as it slowly enveloped the whole city, his face turned ashen in an instant.

"Sun Jack, has Sun Jack really come? Why would he come here! This is so far from Metropolis!"

But the next moment, the spacecraft carriers began to transform, revealing their large assault equipment, and with a "zizz" sound, accompanied by huge beams of laser light, all the military outposts in the city came under attack.

Caught off guard, the FFP subsidiary was overwhelmed for a moment, but soon all combat units took to the skies, and the anti-air systems were fully activated. The battle heated up rapidly, both on the network and the physical plane, with new Suns igniting in the sky, and the flames of war beginning to burn.

While Li Zongxian was huddled inside a Hover Car, panicked and restless, the car door was suddenly yanked open, and a miner engulfed in flames walked in.

When he saw the cigarette in the man's mouth, Li Zongxian, who had witnessed Revolutionary Sun Jack's actions, instantly realized that this person was Sun Jack!

The moment he realized this, before Sun Jack could lift the industrial explosives he was holding, Li Zongxian abruptly got up from the ground and threw himself into the driver's seat.

"Why have you only just arrived? Hurry, get in! I'll take you to capture our boss!"

"Didn't I remember this thing can drive itself?" Li Zongxian trembled when he felt the scorching mechanical arm of Sun Jack slap onto his shoulder.

"I'm a local! I know everything about this city! I also know where the Lord Mayor of London City is!" Having said that, Li Zongxian transmitted all information about London to him without reservation.

Then he turned around, facing Sun Jack whose flames had already been extinguished on his body, and excitedly thumped his chest hard.

"I can also be Sun Jack!! I can also rebel against the Holy Grail! I am irreconcilably opposed to capitalism!!"
