The HR Alliance is a coalition of the world's most prominent super conglomerates, super families, and other major capitalists.
They manipulate various political brokers, control over half of the global power, and profoundly influence the future direction of the entire Earth through a shadow government.
Li Yao was dead, and the two high-level Gods of War couldn't find an enemy to seek revenge on, nor a grave to weep over.
The frustration in their hearts grew, but how could they be people who would swallow their anger?
"No matter who the murderer is, as long as he killed my son, I will never let him go!"
"I will make the news of A-Wei's passing public, so that all Martial Artists in the world will know."
Veenina said through gritted teeth, "I, Veenina Polenas, am willing to offer all my savings from these years, a total of 100 billion China Yuan, as a reward.
As long as someone can provide sufficient evidence to prove who killed my son, that 100 billion will be theirs."
"I refuse to believe that this murderer has no Family, no friends.
As long as he reveals this matter to anyone, whether in a dream, a slip of the tongue while drunk, or an accidental leak of a secret before the crime, then, in the face of such a massive reward, even his best friend will find it hard not to inform."
"With this 100 billion reward, I want him to have sleepless nights, fearing he might blurt it out in his dreams; I want him to never dare to get drunk again, because drunkards speak the truth; I want him to live in fear and unease every day."
Veenina's words were filled with determination and ruthlessness.
Those who knew were all moved; this was an extremely exaggerated sum, and anyone facing such immense wealth would inevitably be tempted.
"100 billion!"
This massive reward was enough to enlist the aid of those invincible powerhouses who surpassed the God of War level.
It should be known that even the legendary King-level monsters mostly do not command such an astronomical price.
Once one possesses so much money, one can almost instantly enjoy countless luxuries and pleasures in the human world.
In the face of such a huge bounty, various intelligence networks and forces would likely be mobilized to search for the murderer who killed Li Wei.
Veenina Polenas, as the Executive President of the HR Alliance's China region, was not only a top-tier figure in the Alliance but also the biological sister of the current Clan Chief of the Polenas Family.
Her immense wealth was self-evident.
Her wealth primarily originated from her position in the HR Alliance and the formidable background of the Polenas Family, rather than from hunting monsters.
Even her husband, Li Yao, could not compare to her in terms of wealth.
Only she could do something like this; at this moment, this woman, with her deep love for her son, was completely insane.
Inside the Dojo of Limits' main hall in Jiangnan Base City, Zhuge Tao, dressed in a black training suit, was seated cross-legged in the training room.
As the morning light gradually streamed in, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Turn on the morning news.
I always feel at ease after being fooled a bit every day."
Zhuge Tao said softly, and then the camera projected light, displaying a huge screen image on the wall.
This was his daily morning habit, to understand events happening across the country by watching China TV's morning news.
However, as the announcer's voice echoed in the training room, Zhuge Tao suddenly froze.
He stared intently at the morning news on the screen, his face filled with disbelief.
Although he considered all news to be a grand deception, when faced with this figure, his heart was filled with immeasurable shock.
"One hundred billion?"
Zhuge Tao blinked, then suddenly stood up, his heart rate involuntarily accelerating.
This enormous sum of wealth was truly astonishing; even he, as one of the four giants of the Dojo of Limits in Jiangnan Base City, couldn't help but feel shocked.
"Vulture and Scorpion, it turns out to be that couple.
That makes sense, which ordinary God of War Martial Artist could produce one hundred billion?"
Zhuge Tao shook his head and sighed, then thought, "Moreover, this morning news is for all viewers nationwide, which means this information will be known not only by Martial Artists but also by ordinary people.
The influence of the HR Alliance is indeed extraordinary, to be able to have this message broadcast on China TV."
One hundred billion, even Zhuge Tao couldn't help but be tempted.
Although he usually gave some benefits to Geniuses and powerful Martial Artists, it was mostly through internal privileges of the Martial Arts Academy, and he didn't actually spend much money himself.
Even the Martial Arts Academy didn't pay much; the prices of Martial Arts Secret Manuals were all illusory, and as their masters, they didn't spend a penny to produce them.
"Enter Limit Home, God of War-level Martial Artist forum."
At Zhuge Tao's command, the screen's image quickly changed, entering the God of War-level Martial Artist forum.
Although he was only a high-level General, by virtue of his supervisory position, he had the right to enter this high-level forum.
"Tsk tsk, the entire forum is indeed bustling.
It seems everyone wants to get 100 billion."
Zhuge Tao said with a smile, "However, this matter happened in China, and this huge bounty will most likely end up in the hands of us Chinese people."
The entire world was in an uproar, and almost all intelligence networks couldn't help but investigate this matter, searching for the truth behind it.
And City 023, a large city that once had several million inhabitants, although quite dangerous, also attracted a large number of Martial Artists to explore.
In a corner of the Jiangnan Mountain Waters community, sunlight filtered through sparse clouds, dappling the tranquil courtyard.
Liu Yun stood in the center of his small courtyard, concentrating on training his control over Mental Energy.
His eyes were slightly closed, as if isolated from the surrounding world, with only the powerful Mental Energy surging within his heart.
The grass and wood spirit had already been placed in the base.
It was a willow branch, but it was extremely verdant.
Liu Yun didn't know why it seemed to never wither, so he had to put it in the base for analysis.
Now he was more concerned with the Realm of Martial Arts, because he had always been a Puppet of computing power, belonging to a state where he didn't even know how he fought.
Now that he was free, he naturally wanted to watch recordings of past battles and analyze how he had faced life and death in the past.
Under his will, seven red inverse scale flying blades, condensed from pure energy, slowly emerged.
They shimmered with dazzling light, like the brightest stars in the night sky.
Liu Yun's fingers trembled slightly, and the flying blades, following his Mental Energy commands, traced brilliant arcs in the air, sometimes spinning rapidly, sometimes suddenly thrusting, demonstrating astonishing flexibility and destructive power.
Just as Liu Yun was immersed in the selfless Realm of Cultivation, a sudden ringing of his phone interrupted everything.
He frowned slightly but did not immediately stop his Cultivation; instead, with a gentle flick of his Mental Energy, the phone automatically flew into his hand.
The screen displayed an urgent message from his friend Wang Tianba, with an attached link.
Out of curiosity, Liu Yun clicked on the link, and instantly, a shocking news headline appeared before his eyes— "HR Alliance Executive President Veenina Polenas offers a 100 billion China Yuan reward to track down the murderer of her son, Li Yao!"
Even though Liu Yun's heart was as calm as still water at this moment, he felt a jolt.
The inverse scale flying knives automatically embedded themselves in the marble floor, striking a series of sparks.
"Hmph, it finally came!
But if I upgrade the base one more time and acquire two types of evolution fluid, then I'll be able to Breakthrough to planet stage!"
He was now betting everything on the evolution fluid helping him reach planet stage; in that case, even a God of War would be nothing.
However, if his identity were exposed before that, it would be like falling from a hundred-foot tower.
Therefore, he had to collect rare Materials more quickly, and for that, he had to demonstrate God of War-level strength.
Only by doing so could he unlock more permissions, and only by doing so could he solve the bounty problem in the shortest possible time.
Immediately, he called the annoying Grinda.
If she handled this, it would be much easier.
Grinda answered the phone, overjoyed, and walked over from next door without a word.
