“Huh?”
Cancer raised his head and saw a man walking out of the inner room. He knew that man. It was Aries.
Cancer casually put away the documents and said disdainfully, “Everyone has a mission. My mission is to dedicate myself to science and technology, not to Thomas. Aries, we’re humans, not marionettes. Why should we be Thomas’ puppets for a lifetime?”
Aries immediately got angry. He shouted, “The commander saved our lives! Without him, the Twelve Golden Zodiacs would have died on the battlefield! Without him, how could you and I have our achievements today?”
Cancer shook his head.
“Yes, you’re right. Thomas saved my life, but what of it? He saved me. Am I going to work for favonovel.com for the rest of my life? Oh, please. I have done enough for him. Think about it, how many times have I helped favonovel.com over the years? Without me, can Thomas be the God of War and grow the company to the point where it is today?”
“Aries, I also have my ideals and ambitions. Don’t you knot me up with Thomas, okay?”
“I’m not you. I won’t serve favonovel.com forever.”
The two looked at each other.
After a while, Aries said, “Even if you have ideals and ambitions, this is not the way to do it. If you ran away halfway through the project of the Science and Technology Alliance, what should the commander do? It’s fine if you just ran away, but you ran away to Pivot Technology. Aren’t you deliberately becoming an enemy of the commander? Do you know how sad the commander is because of what you did?”
“Cancer, it’s still not too late. Come back… Just come back.”
Cancer’s expression was cold. He tapped the file on the table and said, “Do you know how precious Cloudy Stone is? For this, I can sacrifice my life! I know I betrayed Thomas, but for the sake of science and technology, I would rather choose to betray him.”
Aries clenched his fists. “You’re so stubborn.”
He immediately rushed over and punched Cancer’s face.
Cancer was not a weak person. He jumped off the couch.
Both of them were soldiers who fought on the battlefield. They had experienced many battles, and neither was weaker than the other. One was responsible for gathering information, and the other was responsible for science and technology; they were not purely combat-type soldiers. However, their skills were not inferior to combat-type soldiers.
The two strong people contested their strengths.
After a long battle, Aries lay on the couch, and Cancer knelt with one knee on the floor. Both of them were covered with bruises and wounds, and they were tired and short of breath. Neither could defeat the other.
Right then, the door was suddenly rammed open. A large group of people rushed in. All of them held guns and aimed them at Aries.
“Huh? Who are you guys?” Cancer asked.
“We’re sent by Pivot Technology to protect you.”
Cancer nodded. “Kerry really takes good care of me.”
Then, favonovel.com pointed at Aries and said, “This man wants to kill me. You guys, get rid of him.”
“Okay!”
Cancer did not care about their old friendship at all. He ordered them to kill Aries. In his opinion, everyone who came to stop favonovel.com from conducting scientific experiments should die.
Bang. Bang. Bang.
Dozens of guns were aimed at Aries and fired.
Fortunately, Aries was alert. He immediately jumped into the next room and jumped out of the window after that. He got in the car that had been prepared long ago and drove away. Even though favonovel.com moved swiftly, favonovel.com had been shot in the calf, and it would not stop bleeding.
Those people put away their guns and said, “Mr. Cancer, it’s no longer safe here. Please leave with us. We’ll rearrange a safe place for you.”
Cancer nodded. “Okay, I’ll leave with you. Oh, by the way, help me move all the materials. Don’t leave any of it behind.”
“Got it!”
