Willy Morgan and his group arrived at the hotel lobby, passed through security, handed over their invitations, and received their bidding paddles. A hostess led them directly into the venue.

"Master, many prominent families are here today," Eleanor quietly reminded him.

"Oh?" Willy replied casually.

"That over there is Anthony Lee, the heir to the second-ranked Lee Family in New York. Despite his status, he doesn't have a good reputation or much capability, but the Lee Family’s influence remains strong, so many people flatter him."

"That gentleman is Hudson Hernandez, heir to the Hernandez Family."

Willy nodded again, taking in the information without much reaction.

Just then, a familiar voice called out, "I was just talking about you, and here you are! Willy, my brother!"

"Sebastian!" Willy greeted with a smile as Sebastian Robinson approached.

"Come on, Willy, let me introduce you to a few people!" Sebastian led him ove

    The Will Planet immigration plan was officially scheduled to launch in one month. During that time, Willy Manufacturing was tasked with mass-producing the spacecrafts needed for the relocation effort. Big Shot’s vision was to first relocate a portion of Earth’s elderly population to Will Planet so they could live out their later years in peace. At the same time, one-third of the young population would be moved over to build and reproduce, effectively jumpstarting the planet’s development.These two groups would be covered under special immigration policies from NVMD and other allied nations. Everyone else, however, would not receive such benefits. On Will Planet, residential areas and personal space were far larger than what was available on Earth, offering an entirely new quality of life.Everything on Will Planet was still at zero. Anyone young and willing to work hard had the chance to create real wealth there.Driven by a wave of news cover

    "So, what's the current plan, Big Shot? What do you need me to do?""Willy, the Four Great Families mentioned they wanted land on Will Planet. I agreed. Have they chosen a location yet?""Not yet. We don't have a detailed map, and they’ve never been there. No one really knows the current state of Will Planet, so they're not in a rush to pick a spot.""I’ve already assigned someone to work on mapping. The only problem is, the communications system on that end still needs more time to be fully operational. We're missing a lot of components. Once the map’s done, they can choose then.""I promised them—and also the presidents of New York University, Washington University, and Grok University—that I’d arrange a visit to Will Planet. They can decide after they’ve seen it with their own eyes.""Right. By the way, Willy, I remember you were setting up a communications system between Earth and Will Pla

    Flames erupted across Willy’s body, instantly igniting and incinerating the vines that had bound him. Freed from the entanglement, he launched a fiery counterattack, hurling one flame-forged arrow after another at the green-robed man. One didn’t work? Then two. Two weren’t enough? Then unleash a barrage!Willy manipulated a storm of fire arrows, shooting from all directions, surrounding his opponent like a net of flames.But just as the arrows closed in—no more than a meter away—the green-robed man’s body suddenly radiated a blinding light. The luminous burst neutralized every single arrow in an instant.Willy narrowed his eyes. His elemental powers had no effect. It was time for physical combat.Activating Warrior Mode, he gripped his Precision Light Saber and charged straight toward his opponent....Time blurred. Willy lost track of how long the fight dragged on or how many blows he had taken. Finally,

    "Quit your whining already. Has your system given you anything good lately?""What? What are you trying to do?" Charles asked defensively, wrapping his arms around his chest."Son! What’s that reaction for? You think your old man’s up to something shady? I’m just asking if your system’s upgraded or given you something new—nothing more!""Oh! I thought you were trying to snatch my stuff. Lately, the system only gives me things for fun. They have nothing to do with your business, so… go do your thing.""Stingy brat.""You’re the stingy one! Anything else? My siblings and I are going to sleep.""Nothing else. Get some rest, son."After leaving the kids' room, Willy received a message from David and the others, saying they had already sent people to NVMD to learn how to operate the flying craft. Willy welcomed them and immediately had the team at Willy Manufacturing in New York prepare to receive

    “Come on in, have a seat. Is there something urgent?” Willy said as he welcomed Owen in, pouring him a cup of tea.“Son-in-law,” Owen began, “while you were away and Willy’s Company shut down, every business connected to it worldwide took a hit. The Brown Family was no exception. I came today because this incident made us and families like the Robinsons realize something: we might be considered prominent families in our local circles, but in the global economy, we’re insignificant. When Willy’s Company fell into crisis, we were powerless. We couldn’t help—and barely protected ourselves. It made us question: in the current era, do families like ours even have a place?”“Dad, are you asking because you genuinely want to shut down the Brown Fami

    "Have you been through a lot lately? Where have you been all this time? We were so worried about you!" Penelope clung to Willy, looking him over from head to toe. He didn’t seem injured or visibly different, though she couldn’t shake the feeling that something about him had changed—something she couldn’t quite put into words. Still, her son was home, and that was all that mattered.“I’m fine, Mom. It’s all over now. Violet and I just came by to check in on you. We’re heading to the office soon—today’s the company’s first day back to work, and we’ve got a lot to do.”“Son, listen to me,” Penelope said gently. “This whole mess—it wasn’t Violet’s fault. It was mine. I shouldn’t have suggested what I did. Don’t let this come between the two of you.”“It’s okay, Mom. It’s behind us.”“Son,” Cale
