Chapter 857: 857 Everyone is here! First battle [Update 1]
Ye Wanlan nodded slightly and asked Estelle, "Do you have any idea who in the Wanguo Group wants you dead?"
"Of course I know." Estelle snorted coldly, "During meetings, those old bastards look like they wish to cut me to pieces, but unfortunately, they can’t do anything directly, so they resort to underhanded tactics behind the scenes."
"Good to know." Ye Wanlan said calmly, "There is always a culprit and a debtor; they must have connections with Atlantis."
Even though the arrival of the Battle of Ten Thousand Armies three hundred years ago made it impossible for Beta-level and above Atlantians to set foot on land, some powerful Atlantians had already stepped onto the land and lurked in various corners.
These Atlantians were all minions of the Supreme Wisdom.
Even the Yunjing Lin Family had Envoy Miao Yin infiltrated, so the Wanguo Group must also have minions of the Supreme Wisdom.
Mentioning Atlantis, Estelle couldn’t help but shiver, "When I entered that mine, the signal was intermittent, at first, I thought it was just because there weren’t any base stations there, but now I realize I had already reached the boundary between two worlds."
She hadn’t even seen what Atlantis looked like before Envoy Shenxiu captured her and took her to the peak of Lonely Mountain.
Estelle watched Envoy Shenxiu cruelly kill her colleagues one by one, and she was powerless.
Recalling past events, Estelle’s eyes turned bloodshot, "These damn envoys, I’ll never let them get away with it!"
"The envoys are not easy to deal with." Ye Wanlan said softly, "Envoy Shenxiu’s defense and attack are not strong, but he excels in Illusion Technique, which Penglai Magic happens to counter."
She still remembered Envoy Fu Tu’s casual and seemingly effortless strike.
"Are we just supposed to sit and wait for death?" Estelle pulled at her hair, as if thinking of something, she frowned and said, "Sister YN, Rich Sister, although I didn’t gather any useful information, I vaguely heard Shenxiu and other envoys talking. They mentioned that when the Final Day comes all creatures would perish, and only those who submit to the Supreme Wisdom would live to see the Final Day."
"The Final Day..." Ye Wanlan’s eyes deepened, "Not a good term."
"Isn’t it?" Estelle spread her hands, "What’s the difference between the Final Day and the end of the world? Also, who knows when their so-called Final Day will come."
"Since it hasn’t happened yet, there’s no need to worry about unknown matters." Ye Wanlan said, "Get some rest and make sure you are in a stable condition for tomorrow’s reporter conference."
"Got it." Estelle slowly stretched and muttered, "I’ve been away from the Global Center for almost two years now, I wonder what happened during these two years. Tell me all about it when I wake up."
Ye Wanlan and Christine went out and closed the door.
Wen Chaosheng immediately approached, nervously asking, "Sister YN, Rich Sister, has Sister Cow-Horse woken up?"
"Hearing that her job might be taken, she woke up." Ye Wanlan raised an eyebrow.
"No... truly worthy of Sister Cow-Horse!" Wen Chaosheng was stunned, "I could gladly retire right now, but she’s only thinking about work."
"Who doesn’t think so?" Christine shrugged, "Estelle truly loves her work."
"Waking up is a good thing." Darian smiled, "The Wanguo Group’s conspiracy will fall apart too."
They didn’t care who held power in the Wanguo Group, but harming their friends was not something they would let slide.
Ye Wanlan raised her head, "Tomorrow is our first battle, everyone, be prepared."
Six years later, everyone in this group finally reunited.
So they had to fulfill their promise—
Stand at the pinnacle of the Global Center in their respective fields, and meet again.

The night passed, and Estelle had a good sleep.
After waking up, she was still savoring how hard she worked in her dream.
"Sister Cow-Horse, I’ve missed you so much." Wen Chaosheng squeezed out two tears, "If you hadn’t woken up, I was planning to communicate with Yin Yang to fish you out."
"I’m not dead yet." Estelle said, speechless and choking back tears, "Alright, we can catch up later, brothers and sisters, time to get to work."
As she was about to have someone send her a suit for the reporter conference, Ye Wanlan stopped her with a hand on her shoulder, "No need to go to the site, your body isn’t well yet, it might cause more trouble."
"Not going to the site?" Estelle was startled, "Then how do I fight them?"
"Yes, no need to go." Ye Wanlan smiled lightly, "Right here."
She typed a string of characters on the computer at a leisurely pace, then gently pressed the enter key.
"Swish!"
The code generated, the command executed.
In an instant, Ye Wanlan took control of the network and all connected devices at the Global Center.
Wen Chaosheng’s jaw dropped, almost hitting the floor.
"I see, only Sister YN’s computer skills could be this quick." Estelle clapped her hands together, "Thanks to Sister YN this time, tell me where to strike and I’ll strike!"
Ling Yunzhan suddenly inserted, "What about the Heaven-reaching Tower?"
"The Heaven-reaching Tower of course—" Estelle’s voice suddenly stopped, she raised her voice, "I was only gone for two years, and you’re already planning to go to war with the Heaven-reaching Tower?!"
"Relax, Sister Cow-Horse, not yet," Wen Chaosheng said, holding a stalk of dogtail grass, "but it’s only a matter of time."
Estelle rolled her eyes, almost fainting again.
But she couldn’t.
She gritted her teeth, "Even if Sister YN’s ship sinks, I’ll still board. It’s just the Heaven-reaching Tower, fight!"
Ye Wanlan smiled, "If it really comes to that, I’ll go first."
As long as she lived, no one behind her could be touched.
At the same moment that Ye Wanlan was manipulating the computer, at the reporter conference site—
"What’s going on?" Cliff frowned, "Haven’t you even prepared the report? Where is it? Show it!"
"No... we prepared it, but..." The secretary stammered, "But we can’t control the computer right now."
No matter how the mouse was moved, the cursor on the screen didn’t budge an inch.
"We can’t control it?" Cliff laughed in disbelief, "Who can control it then? Are you kidding me? Restart the computer!"
This was a global reporter conference; even a small mistake could lead to fluctuations in stock prices, wiping billions off the market cap.
Having gone through the trouble of getting rid of Estelle, Cliff could not allow any more issues.
The secretary was about to restart the computer when suddenly, the screen went black.
By this time, media reporters had already gathered, and live-streaming equipment was set up, with countless Global Center People flooding into the livestream room.
Besides them, People of Shenzhou, Beilu People, Starman Federation Empire Citizens, and more were attracted to the event.
After all, Wanguo Group was the top company in the world, a name that commanded interest from all countries.
[Weren’t they supposed to announce the new CTO? Why hasn’t it been announced yet?]
[The screen’s gone black, don’t tell me Wanguo Group doesn’t even have a competent tech person?]
The black screen suddenly lit up again, and a familiar face appeared on the display.
"Hello everyone, I am Estelle Rubinstein."
