From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword

The Crystal Bottle Life Protection Box originally belonged to Augustus, and later was stolen by a team from the Creator Organization, deemed by the organization as a Holy Artifact.

It was then stolen from the Creator Organization by Xie Shi'en.

Afterward, Xie Shi'en was called into the Quel'dorei World and brought the Crystal Bottle Life Protection Box back with him.

This Crystal Bottle Life Protection Box had made a great journey, traveling through two worlds, and in the end, it still ended up back in the hands of Augustus.

Now it was kept by Queen Orelana as a memento, worn on her body.

All these details were unknown to the Creator Organization.

As for the Life Protection Box of Dionysus, it was not fabricated out of thin air. If the Creator Organization were to send someone to investigate, they would find information consistent with what Lu Heng said.

013 fell silent for a moment, then asked, "I'm talking about another Life Protection Box?"

"Which one?" Lu Heng countered.

"The one that Augustus used."

"You also know that Augustus turned into a Witch Demon? But Augustus is already dead, leaving no soul behind. The Life Protection Box should be with Queen Orelana."

Lu Heng didn't tell a single lie, but not a single piece of information he provided was what 013 wanted to hear.

013 continued to ask, "Have you encountered 027 in the Elf World?"

Lu Heng's response was straightforward: "No."

013 fell silent once again, then said, "Hand over all the records of the Superpower Users who were conscripted to the Elf World."

Lu Heng's expression darkened as he refused, "I don't have that kind of leisure time. There were a lot of people called up for the service in the Abyss Battlefield this time, including many Superpower Users from other countries, most of whom I don't even recognize."

013 narrowed the scope: "I only want the records of Da Xia Superpower Users."

Lu Heng thought it over and answered, "The Da Xia Superpower Users I've seen in the Elf World are roughly in the twenties. In addition to my team, ten others are from the military, there is also one named Xie Shi'en, and then there is Rong Xincheng's three-person team, though now only two remain. Basically, that's it, there should be four or five people I'm not very familiar with."

013 asked again, "Do you think one of these people could be 027?"

Lu Heng, slipping his boots back on his feet, suddenly said, "You first ask about Augustus's Life Protection Box, then about 027, so the Holy Artifact your organization lost is a Life Protection Box?"

013 fell silent for a long while before speaking sternly, "That's not something you should inquire about."

Lu Heng finished putting on his boots, stood up and jumped slightly, his tone turning cold:

"You don't want to reveal key information to me, yet you expect me to work for you. Go back and tell your superiors that I'm not that easy-going. If you piss me off, I'll chop you up along with them."

The atmosphere grew tense, and 013, holding back his anger, said, "When you're assigned a mission, the organization will naturally provide a corresponding reward."

Lu Heng turned to gaze into his eyes, the corners of his mouth lifting in a dangerous curve: "You can try using Superpower Potions on me again."

"Why do you refuse the SPA-3 model? It's currently the most successful Superpower Potion," 013 pressed on.

"You sound like an idiot asking that," Lu Heng's voice grew colder.

"027 has definitely been to the Elf World. As long as you can identify him, the organization will give you a reward that will satisfy you," 013 said before transforming into a Black Crow and flying into the sky, disappearing among the clouds.

Lu Heng was uncertain what the promised reward was, but last time, a box of SPA-3 model Superpower Potions was brought to him.

To be honest, if one were to calculate by price, that box of SPA-3 model Superpower Potions was indeed quite valuable.

Now, even the SPA-1 model Superpower Potions are priced in the tens of millions.

The price of SPA-3 model Superpower Potions would be many times higher, and they are even difficult to procure.

However, once started, these injections would lead to a dependency.

Even if one could endure the withdrawal effects, the drop in Combat Power would be unbearable.

Therefore, once the injections began, they couldn't be stopped.

Moreover, with the appearance of the SPA Superpower Potions, Lu Heng had already uncovered the hidden markers in the biological technology information of the Xavier Matrix.

It was now confirmed that the biopharmaceutical company the Creator Organization controlled was the production company for the SPA Superpower Potions.

But there was still an unclear piece of information.

Indeed, it was a biopharmaceutical company under the control of the Creator Organization that produced the SPA Superpower Potions, but it couldn't be confirmed if the production was orchestrated by the Creator Organization itself.

It was also possible that this biopharmaceutical company, after obtaining the Sikes Biotechnology Information, began to produce Superpower Potions on its own to make money.

However, whether the Creator Organization was behind it no longer mattered.

To stop the proliferation of the SPA Superpower Potion, it was necessary to deal with this biopharmaceutical company.

But there was a problem, if the biopharmaceutical company was a foreign company, the nature of the matter became somewhat delicate.

Currently, only a few countries like Da Xia had legislation banning superpower potions, while these drugs were legal in many countries and had even been legalized in some.

In other words, if this biopharmaceutical company was from the White Eagle Federation, then they were "legally" producing superpower potions.

How do you regulate someone who is "legally" producing superpower potions?

It was not impossible to regulate.

As long as the SPA Superpower Potion was sold within the boundaries of Da Xia, it could be regulated.

...

Elemervie Pharmaceutical Company.

It was this biopharmaceutical company whose SPA Superpower Potion had trap markers.

This was not hard to investigate.

In some countries where superpower potions were legal, brand names for superpower potions had already been established, and sales and production channels could be traced.

All that was needed was to go to the White Eagle Federation and buy a superpower potion through "legal" channels. If the potion's components contained the marker, the producer's identity could be confirmed.

That is to say, Elemervie Pharmaceutical Company was a company controlled by the Creator Organization.

The actual controlling shareholder of this biopharmaceutical company was a financial tycoon named Gordon Jacob.

Among the Fortune Global 500 companies, there were fourteen pharmaceutical companies, including Elemervie Pharmaceutical.

This was a pharmaceutical company from the White Eagle Federation that ranked within the top three in the Federation.

One could imagine how large this company was.

Elemervie was a public company, so its equity structure was extremely complex.

Actually, Gordon Jacob was not the largest shareholder of Elemervie.

Within the stock equity structure of Elemervie Pharmaceutical, none of the top ten shareholders were individuals; all were fund management companies or holding companies.

However, no matter how complex the equity structure was, there would always be an actual controlling shareholder who controlled the company.

Gordon Jacob was that person; he was the actual controlling shareholder of the Kate Investment Group, which was the largest shareholder of Elemervie Pharmaceutical.

In addition, the second largest shareholder of Elemervie Pharmaceutical was the Belair Fund, which was also owned by Gordon Jacob.

Therefore, Gordon Jacob was the actual controller behind Elemervie Pharmaceutical.

That is to say.

It was very likely that Gordon Jacob was a member of the Creator Organization.

A few days ago, Lu Heng had received information about Gordon Jacob from Iron Blood.

Gordon Jacob, 78 years old, was a famous financial magnate in the White Eagle Federation, controlling the Kate Investment Group, one of the White Eagle's Five Major Investment Companies; he was truly wealthy enough to rival nations.

According to the information provided by Iron Blood, Gordon Jacob was also associated with the ASE All-Knowing Eye Alliance, a member of the ASE Alliance.

In the information, Lu Heng had also seen an interesting piece of information.

One year ago, that is, in the third month after Abyss Descent, the Kate Investment Group had acquired 9.3% of Elemervie Pharmaceutical's shares, totaling 17.5%, becoming the largest shareholder.

That is to say.

Gordon Jacob had acquired the shares of Elemervie Pharmaceutical after Abyss Descent to become the actual controlling shareholder.

With additional information in hand, revisiting these data, many secrets behind the scenes could be seen.

Gordon Jacob owned more than one biopharmaceutical company, and Elemervie was the largest biopharmaceutical company he controlled.

There had once been rumors that Gordon Jacob acquired biopharmaceutical companies to develop drugs that delay aging, and later he invested heavily in anti-tumor drug research.

Behind these rumors, obviously, key information was hidden.
