Chapter 256: Revenge of the Survivors
Wu Chang entered the conference room and the first words he said made all the media present lively.
"Good evening, everyone. Mr. Schultz needs to devote himself to research and has no time to take care of the company's development, so he entrusted me to manage the company. From today, I am the new chairman of the Anthem Company."
He paused for a moment and continued, "My name is Sean, Sean Brown."
The media people who were sent to attend the original press conference had a basic understanding of the Anthem Company. Many people knew about Sean's existence, a fisherman who was just eating and waiting to die.
The news that Sean took over as chairman was as explosive as Schultz's retirement.
Wu Chang coughed lightly, stretched out his hand and pressed down, signaling the media below to gather their attention, and then said:
"Next, I will announce three things, and the rest will be handed over to the employees of our news department."
"First, my appointment will not affect the rules set by Schultz. Whether it is the operating philosophy of Anthem, the internal promotion assessment rules, or even the department layoffs and personnel appointments, I do not intend to make any changes."
"Everything remains the same. Anthem will still be the Anthem known to the world."
This is not only for the world, but also for Anthem employees around the world.
New officials take three actions when they take office. This means of establishing authority is universal all over the world, especially the newly appointed manager Sean, who is also a well-known relative. No one knows how he will mess up the company, and the employees are all in danger.
No matter whether Wu Chang's declaration is true or not, at least it gives everyone a reassurance on the surface.
"Secondly, as you have just seen, our Anthem Company's Essence Armament has been a great success. It is not only ordinary Essence Armament, but also the laboratory confidential hymn-level Essence Armament, which is equally effective."
"I believe you should have recorded the battle just now. It doesn't matter if it is not clear. We have officially recorded it and will release it with the machine parameters later."
The second point announced by Wu Chang instantly diverted everyone's attention from the first point.
They had seen the fight between several giants before.
Although the battle was extremely restrained and did not even leave the square, it did not tear down a city to add to the fun like some monster special dramas, as if it was a large outdoor AR performance.
But they who had experienced that battle personally could use anything to guarantee that it was definitely not an ordinary performance.
Everyone was very curious. Among the three giants who had just fought, how many were Anthem-level Essence Armaments of Anthem Company.
One, two, or three.
Wu Chang did not give the audience more time to think, and then said:
"As for the third piece of news, it is probably not good news for everyone, or even for the entire human race."
"In fact, the world we live in has always been facing the spying of aliens. The huge Buddha statue that appeared in the battle just now is an alien. They visited our world thousands of years ago and attempted to rule the world."
"Not only him, the strong man driving the ram chariot, the man in a suit who shuttled quickly in the sky, and the woman holding a snake staff, as long as you read carefully, you can find similar character prototypes in the myths of different countries."
"This is not a coincidence, but a planned, organized, and long-term invasion."
As soon as this sentence came out, the media people present were going crazy.
What does it mean? The prototypes of myths and legends around the world are actually aliens?
If the speaker was an unknown netizen, everyone present would only think that he had a problem with his brain. It was a certain era, and he was still playing elementary school conspiracy theories.
But the one who said this was Sean, the chairman of the Anthem Company, and a mythical battle just happened in front of them, which made them have to think about the authenticity of it.
One of the bold reporters stood up and asked:
"Chairman Sean, what you just said is the background setting of the hymn-level original weapon?"
Wu Chang said: "It is true."
Wu Chang's affirmation made the atmosphere in the audience even more explosive.
You know, more than 80% of the people in the world have faith. The federation where the hymn company is located is a religious country. Most people believe in a certain religion in a paranoid and conservative way.
Then what do they believe in...
Wu Chang saw the doubts in everyone's hearts and said: "You are right. All the gods in mythology are aliens in a sense. Some of them have integrated into us, and some choose to leave and wait for the right time to return to harvest."
The reporters present exclaimed in unison. Some reporters with poor self-control were already red-hot and shouted to come up and punch Wu Chang.
Before the security personnel made any move, a huge figure with white on top and black on the bottom appeared next to the red-hot reporter and lifted him up.
As soon as his feet left the ground, the virus was shut down, and the smart IQ occupied the high ground again.
The reporter was lifted up by the back of the neck, and his angry eyes suddenly cleared. He was carried around the venue twice by the figure and put back in place. He became very obedient.
The huge figure flashed and appeared behind Wu Chang the next moment.
Wu Chang said calmly: "In fact, the conspiracy theory of the outside world about the Shengong Company is partly correct. Since a long time ago, Shengong Company has been cracking the technology belonging to aliens, and has been cooperating privately with federal officials."
"The most well-known psychic stimulation surgery is one of the important achievements. Now, we have basically completed the analysis of alien technology. From today, our Shengong Company will be able to enable ordinary humans to have the power that belongs exclusively to gods in mythology."
The reporters looked at the huge figure with white upper body and black lower body, and then looked at their colleagues who had just flown in a circle, and also looked at Wu Chang who had been speaking, and finally looked at the big screen.
It's broken, the eyes are not enough.
Not only the eyes, but also the brain is not enough. A lot of information poured in, making everyone's CPU almost burn.
Wu Chang continued:
"The more ignorant you are about this matter, the better you are protected, because we have been marked from the beginning. Once our world and civilization progress to a certain level, it will attract aliens and reap all our achievements."
This sentence is not a lie, because the copy plane has long been targeted by the Abyss Game. Strictly speaking, the players who descended are aliens.
"In order to cope with the impending disaster, to develop rapidly, and to get all kinds of support as soon as possible, we have cooperated with the Federation and done many things that are not glorious. For this, I can apologize, but I will not regret it, nor will I stop."
Wu Chang looked around at the dumbfounded media people and said with a smile:
"To be honest, there is no need to let you and ordinary people know this information. Telling you this is not to express the greatness of the Anthem Company, nor to reflect the heroism of saving the world alone."
"Telling you is to let everyone know that our civilization can come to this point today, and the truly great is human beings themselves, not some other existence."
After Wu Chang finished speaking, he turned and left without waiting for others to react.
Leaving the silent conference room to the confused media people and the equally confused Minister of Information.
Minister of Information Liam Liu looked at Wu Chang's back with tears in his eyes, Chairman, this part is not in the pre-prepared part of the press conference.
You pretended to be powerful and ran away, what should I do!
Wu Chang left the venue and sighed at the huge Anthem Company logo in the first floor hall.
Schultz's bloody last words were too dark, and he was temporarily powerless, but Xiao Xiao's wish could still fulfill part of it for him.
It can be expected that the gods believed in by the world are all aliens. Once this information is spread, the world will definitely be in turmoil.
No matter what religion the believers believe in, they will probably regard the Anthem Company as a heresy, especially the fanatics with firm beliefs, who are more likely to launch some radical actions against the Anthem Company.
But it doesn't matter. He used to be the manager of the fully automatic defense system department. He knows that the defense system will never be soft when dealing with thugs.
If the fanatics in this world can't be killed no matter how hard they try, and they must have a god to place their faith in to survive, he doesn't mind moving Irene here and letting her harvest the faith of this plane.
The press conference just held not only satisfies Schultz's unfinished wish before, but also puts an end to everything tonight.
This is his private space. The Anthem Company is now in his hands again. Of course, he must ensure that everything can be landed smoothly.
By portraying the concept of aliens as the public enemy of mankind, one can gain the reputation of protecting mankind, justify many of the past actions of the Anthem Company, and at the same time, blame the aliens for the wealthy people killed by Schultz tonight.
80% of the media in the copy plane are controlled by the Federation, and the Anthem Company is behind the most mainstream media in the Federation.
He only needs to throw out a self-consistent argument, and it is not up to these plane natives to believe or not.
Do you understand what journalism is?
While the company's internal energy is focused on the press conference, Wu Chang's body changed his clothes, left the company by car, and came to the river outside Danube Street.
Where Raymond and Mok once met, his true self and Raymond were waiting here.
Wu Chang pretended to be unfamiliar with his true self. The two had a brief conversation, and then Wu Chang passed a piece of information to Raymond and said, "Take a look for yourself."
Before Wu Chang came, his true self had already made a lot of preparations for Raymond as a righteous member of the "aliens" who opposed the invasion of the plane.
The real me turned into a sea giant in front of Raymond. Raymond also saw Booker and others disappear into light from a close distance. In addition, the extraordinary power used by everyone during this period was obviously not something that ordinary humans could obtain through psychic stimulation surgery.
All these factors combined made Raymond accept the alien statement very smoothly.
Raymond quickly flipped through the information on his mobile phone, and the expression on his face became more and more ugly.
The information contained a lot of information, including but not limited to the fact that the mastermind behind the Sid tragedy was actually the federal military, the CIA, the FBI, and the Speaker of the Federal House of Representatives.
The FBI was responsible for setting up the bureau, the military was responsible for stimulating the disqualified monsters and acting, and the CIA was responsible for taking advantage of the chaos to deal with the stubborn elements and the natives of Sid Town.
The real estate company opened by the husband of the Speaker of the House of Representatives was responsible for purchasing the local disaster-stricken properties at a low price, and completely turning the original scenic town into a luxury resort.
Including Raymond, many orphans were sent to welfare homes. In the welfare homes, they learned about the Sid tragedy through various channels and vowed to take revenge.
Some of the best, like Raymond, have a belief in revenge that goes beyond everything and can make great efforts for it. At this time, the CIA will take the initiative to contact them, give them a chance, and promise that as long as they work hard enough, the CIA will help them find out the truth of the year.
Orphans like Raymond are like nuclear-powered cattle and horses, chasing the "carrot" of revenge hanging in front of them.
They go to perform the most dangerous tasks, do the most shady work, and finally hold on to hope, like a wild dog, and die in an unknown alley.
For example, the mission that Raymond performed this time, whether it was to steal the secrets of the Anthem Company according to the original plan, or to track down the Anthem Hunter in the future, after the mission was completed, when he met with Mok again, Mok would not hesitate to kill him.
In the intelligence provided by Wu Chang, in addition to the part about Sid Town, there is also the part about Raymond.
Raymond always thought that his infiltration and disguise were seamless, but in fact, the wealthy Moretz who took a fancy to him because of an accident was actually cooperating with him in acting.
Moretz was one of the biggest beneficiaries of Sid Town back then. He had close ties with the upper class, and the task of stealing the secrets of the Anthem Company was even his request.
Schultz, whom Raymond regarded as his biggest enemy, knew that it was him when he first sneaked into the second laboratory and stole the disqualified monster conversion agent.
Schultz just pretended not to know, so that Moretz and Mok and others misjudged his control over the Anthem Company, and then relaxed their vigilance and did not do more small actions.
Just wait until the Anthem plan is carried out, and then settle them together.
The above intelligence, one by one, has detailed and complete evidence, and it is not difficult to distinguish the true from the false.
Raymond looked at the intelligence in his hand, sweating profusely, as if he had been fished out of the water, his pupils were dilated, as if he had lost his soul.
Raymond has always shown himself as a social elite, not only to maintain the persona of a rich man's assistant, but also because he is extremely conceited about his own abilities in his bones.
He is an orphan. With high IQ and EQ, he has constant opportunities in life and learned skills that many people cannot master. He was appreciated by the CIA and became an agent.
He can escape from countless dangerous missions. He is the ace agent of the CIA and the IRS. He easily walks between the CIA and the IRS and uses the power of the two organizations to avenge himself.
He can play with the legendary financial street crocodile Moretz in the palm of his hand. The coincidence he planned is seamless and he easily gains Moretz's trust.

He took revenge with superb skills. Even without a behemoth like the Anthem Company, he could do nothing to him and was easily controlled by him.
But when he saw Wu Chang's intelligence, he realized that all of this was a false illusion deliberately compiled by others.
Even his entire life, his every move, and the deepest thoughts hidden in his heart, all came from the manipulation and guidance of others.
What is this?
Clown?
No, no, no, although the clown is funny, when the clown performs on stage, he clearly knows that he is a clown.
And he always thinks that he is performing an elegant drama. He thinks that he is the protagonist, the prince of revenge, and the person favored by fate.
He looks at the audience who are grinning in the audience and thinks that they are all stupid and foolish people. Their wisdom cannot appreciate art, cannot see through his vivid micro-expressions and exquisite lines, and will only laugh at some flaws he deliberately reveals.
He despises these people.
But in fact, in the eyes of the audience, his performance is not elegant at all. He is obviously a domestic fat duck, but he shows a bloated and obese figure, trying hard to play the role of a white swan.
It's like four 500-pound fat boys with chest and leg hair and three layers of folds on their stomachs, standing hand in hand on the stage, wearing a small ballet skirt with broken lines, and proudly performing the four little swans.
The smiles on their faces are not silly, but the smiles they squeeze out when they can't hold it back.
This huge gap almost destroyed Raymond's spirit. The shame that overturned his cognition even overshadowed his anger and hatred after discovering the truth.
Wu Chang looked at the pale Raymond. He regretted that he had given all the information to Raymond in one breath in order to hurry up.
Raymond might have been too shocked and made the child stupid.
Fortunately, Raymond was indeed very good. Ten minutes later, the CPU finally restarted and the pupil regained focus.
Wu Chang's body was posing in a cold and arrogant manner, and the real me asked with concern: "Raymond, are you okay?"
Raymond smiled bitterly and said: "It's terrible, even worse than the day when the Sid tragedy happened. Just now, I even had the idea of abandoning reason and escaping reality."
"But when I think of the relatives who died in the Sid tragedy, and the orphans who were exploited by the CIA, I wake up again. I must do something for them."
At this moment, the Anthem Company, which Raymond originally hated the most, has become the most insignificant target. He even feels grateful for the intelligence sent by Wu Chang's body.
You know, there are a lot of intelligence in it, which are the highest level of federal secrets. It is extremely difficult to know it, not to mention that each piece of intelligence is attached with evidence to verify the complete chain.
A lot of the intelligence in it may not even be known by Mok. Only the Anthem Company has such means and energy.
The real me patted Raymond on the shoulder and said, "Everything will pass."
Raymond looked at Wu Chang's body and asked, "Mr. Sean, I want to expose these things. I hope you can help me."
Wu Chang's body, who was posing on the side, said coldly, "I don't have the habit of doing charity. Giving you information is just to repay the favor of the guy next to you."
Raymond took a deep breath and said, "As long as I have your support, I am sure that I can use this matter to get promoted and control the real power of the CIA. At that time, the CIA will be the CIA of the Anthem Company."
"No matter what kind of guarantee you need, even if you implant a special chip in my head, I am willing!"
Wu Chang's body shook his head and turned away.
Raymond looked at Wu Chang's back, clenched his fists tightly, wanted to say something, but couldn't speak, and lowered his head with frustration on his face.
At this moment, Wu Chang, who had walked five meters, stopped and said:
"I can help you find a fearless reporter, and then help you find a few professional teams as the behind-the-scenes promoters, make this matter public, and then accidentally reveal that you are one of the few survivors in Sid Town to help you build momentum."
Raymond raised his head suddenly, his pupils widened.
Wu Chang continued: "I will give you two months. Within two months after the incident is exposed, the Song Company will provide you with the help you need. During this time, you must at least enter the core of power of the CIA."
"My people will evaluate you in real time, don't let me down."
Raymond immediately promised: "Mr. Sean, I dare to guarantee that your will will be the will of the CIA in the future!"
Wu Chang nodded and continued to leave.
He nodded not because he thought Raymond was determined, but because of the system prompt in front of him.
"Players complete the hidden side quest: help Raymond complete his revenge, reveal the truth about the Sid Town tragedy, and stop the real conspiracy of the Anthem Company."
"Players get the hidden side quest reward: Survivor's Revenge."
As the hidden side quest is completed, Wu Chang has a necklace in his hand, with a town printed on the front and Sid written on the back.
"Item name: Survivor's Revenge."
"Item level: A"
"Item skill: Perfect actor."
"Skill description: Equipped with the Survivor's Revenge, when playing a certain role, you will not be suspected by others, and will subconsciously relax your vigilance and caution towards you. You can store three roles at the same time."
"Item skill: Hate mark."
"Skill description: After obtaining a token of an organization, you can mark the organization with the token. Once a member of the organization enters the 3 km range around you, you will automatically lock the target position and cause 10% additional damage to the target. Cooling Time: 12 hours. "
"Item Skill: Survivor."
"Skill Description: When acting alone, all physical attributes increase by 10%, and the effect of stealth skills increases by 50%; when the first damage is received, the health value is reduced to below 20%, and the survivor status is obtained. Survivor: Immediately restore 20% of life, increase all physical attributes by 30%, and greatly improve luck. The duration of the survivor status is 10 minutes. Cooldown time: two planes."
"Note: Those who survive a great disaster will have good fortune in the future."
The completion of the hidden side quest made it unnecessary for Wu Chang to continue to stay in the copy plane.
His original body returned to the Song Company and instructed the chairman's assistants to work according to the original plan. Unimportant problems can be solved by themselves based on experience. If there are any problems, ask Jeffrey.
The real self followed Raymond to drink a lot, and Raymond drank until he fell asleep while lying on the toilet while vomiting, and then left after leaving a note.
Wu Chang chose to leave the copy. With the familiar transition light, he entered the copy settlement space, and his various performances in the copy were played on the TV wall.
"Player No. 4444444 has successfully completed the Anthem Company dungeon. Settlement will begin based on the player's performance in the dungeon."
"The player has completed the main mission 1: become an employee of Anthem Company and complete a promotion or three weekly performance assessments."
"The player has completed the main mission 2: Investigate the secrets hidden in Anthem Company."
"The player has completed the main mission 3: Maintain the peace value of Weld City, so that the peace value must not be less than 30 points."
"The player becomes an employee of Anthem Company and is promoted to the chairman of Anthem Company."
"The player finds out all the secrets hidden in Anthem Company and finds out the hymn plan."
"The player successfully maintains the peace of Weld City and prevents the tragedy of Sid Town from happening again."
"The player uncovers the conspiracy of Sid Town and helps the survivor Raymond "The dungeon has been completed."
"The dungeon has been completed by 100%!"
"The title of Perfectionism is activated, and the dungeon has been completed by 5%. "
"The title of True Walker is activated, and the dungeon has been completed by 15%. "
"Congratulations to the player for getting the first place in the dungeon completion in the branch competition task, and adding 30% additional dungeon completion. Since the player's dungeon completion exceeds 90%, the excess part will be converted into dungeon rewards."
"The excess dungeon completion totals 50%, and the dungeon basic reward increases by 250%. "
"Dungeon rating: perfect!"
"Experience and decayed silver coins settlement correction: 300%!"
"The player gains experience: 52,500 (5,000×3.5×3)."
"The player gains decayed silver coins: 105,000 (10,000×3.5×3)."
Wu Chang rubbed his hands. The basic reward settlement was completed. Next, it was his favorite dungeon reward settlement.
