Chapter 1617
He looked at Xavion and asked, “Did Quincy brief you about the situation?”
“Yes,” Xavion said with fire in his eyes, “Quincy told me that we will establish a brand-new telecommunications
company with an upfront investment of approximately one trillion dollars. Once the research yields results, I will
receive an additional ten trillion dollars in funds. We will soon begin establishing Z network cell towers all across Sol.
I estimate that the Z network signal will have national coverage within five years.
“In ten years, I will expand the Z network to encompass the globe.”
Xavion began babbling non-stop.
James knew little about this. He looked at Xavion and asked, “So, in essence, how long do you need to research the
Z network after we provide you with sufficient capital and the world’s best scientists?”
Xavion said, “The Z network is just a general term that is divided into many stages. If it’s telecommunications
technology you’re talking about, I have already completely mastered them. In fact, we can begin construction of
the cell towers anytime.

digitalize everything. I wouldn’t dare make guarantees, but there should be some preliminary research findings
within ten years.”
This was simply too complicated for someone like James who only had a high school diploma. He only understood
that everyone could stand to gain from Xavion’s technology. All he needed to do was to ensure the Z network’s
national coverage in Sol. As for the rest, he would leave everything to Xavion, Quincy, and the others.
“Let’s go. I’ll bring you to New Era’s first Annual General Meeting.”
At that moment, in a courtyard in the Capital.
This was where Sky resided.
Sky had also received the invitation letter from Divine Sword Villa. However, his time was limited. A storm was
brewing on the horizon in the Capital, and he could not leave..
“Sir, the situation is turning from bad to worse. James’ First Era Commerce’s first Annual General Meeting will be
held today. Besides, there are rumors that he has already found Xavion and is planning to bring. him to the AGM.
“Not only that, there are rumors from within New Era Commerce that James is planning to establish a new
telecommunications company. Every member of New Era will each have a slice of the pie. If they succeed, the
consequences would be disastrous to Orient Commerce.”
Sky’s expression darkened as he listened intently.
“James… Give him an inch and he’ll ask for a mile. I should have taken action against him a long time ago.”
“Sir, Xavion is currently at the Cadens’ residence. In my opinion, we should head over there immediately and
abduct Xavion. Without him, James cannot proceed with his plan.”
Sky stood up and ordered, “I’ll head over to the Cadens’ residence personally and stop James from
1/2
leaving. You, on the other hand, should mobilize the Phantom Army and arrest everyone at New Era Commerce for
unlawful assembly. We’ll keep them temporarily locked up for now.”
“Understood.”
Sky’s subordinates immediately turned to leave.
At the same time, James was heading to New Era Commerce along with Xavion. As James departed from the
suburbs, he needed to travel for two hours.

James shut his eyes and meditated. Meanwhile, Xavion was a little nervous. He had been waiting for this. day to
come for decades. Finally, his wish was about to come true.
Screech!
The driver of the convoy slammed on the brakes.
James lunged forward and Xavion almost smashed against the front window. Fortunately, James managed to grab
him in time.
“What happened?” James questioned.
“Emperor, someone’s in the way.”
Some vehicles and fully-armed soldiers were blocking their path. Upon seeing their attire, James furrowed his
eyebrows, “The Phantom Army?”
He was puzzled.
Tobias, the Leader of the Phantom Army, was dead. Why would the Phantom Army emerge now? “What’s wrong?”
Xavion asked anxiously.
James glanced at him and said, “Everything’s fine. Just stay put in here. I’ll go have a look.”
As he said that, he opened the door and leaped off the convoy.
