CHAPTER 59: THEY ARE NOT HUMANS BUT EVIL CREATURES!

On the way to the Golden Phoenix Tower, Noah recounted to Edgar what had happened in Alexander Morgan’s office.

After a few moments, Noah concluded his explanation with a somewhat awkward smile, glancing at Edgar beside him.

"Edgar, I have no choice but to use a little force on Jeremy. I hope this won’t cause you trouble dealing with this matter..."

A subtle smile formed on Edgar’s lips, and pride rose within him after he realized how brave Noah was to face the Morgan family alone.

"It’s alright, sir. No need to worry about it. They won’t dare to act, especially if you threaten to reveal the voice recording. Their fear will keep them in silence."

Noah paused for a moment, his brows knitting together as if deep in thought, before he finally looked back at Edgar. "Well, the truth is, I didn’t have video recording, only voice..."

Earlier, Noah only managed to take out his voice recorder in his Space-Mind; he didn’t have tech like a smart pin in there.

"A voice recording will do... I’ll ask Ethan to prepare all the technicalities."

"Ah, I forgot about Ethan. He is my Father’s lawyer, isn’t he?"

"Yes, he owns the Ethan Water Law Firm, the top law firm in the country. However, only a few know that more than 90% of the Firm’s business and revenues come from your Father’s company, Golden Phoenix, and its direct and indirect subsidiaries. Only a small fraction of business comes from his other clients. So, basically, your Father owns his Law Firm."

Noah is no longer surprised.

Just checking his Father’s wealth in his system already shocks him. His father has numerous hidden companies, and only a select few in the country are aware that he owns the Golden Phoenix Group.

After meeting his father’s siblings and parents, those people will truly come after him if they discover how wealthy his Father is. What the media said about Billions was all fake data.

The truth is far beyond that!

"I see. So we will be alright if they come after me because I injured Jeremy."

Noah asked again, just wanted to make sure.

"No need to worry about that minor issue, sir," Edgar reassured him.

"Alright then..."

Noah smiles and leans back in his seat while pretending to sleep. He needs to check his system.

Knowing his system would not punish people twice, Noah avoided punishing Jeremy Morgan earlier because the rewards and punishments available were not worth it.

After selecting [N], he looked at a few more notifications to check if anything needed immediate attention, but he saw nothing interesting.

However, when Noah was about to dismiss his system, suddenly something crossed his mind.

’Zoe? Did you hear me? Can we still talk even though I’m not in the Golden Phoenix Tower?’

’Yes! You can talk to me as long as you’re in this city. If I’m out of reach, you can only access the system as usual. But, if your Power Level is high enough, we could communicate like this without a distance limit.’

Zoe’s soothing voice echoed in his mind, filling him with warmth and happiness.

He yearned for this ability—to speak with her directly whenever needed, especially in moments like earlier.

’If only I knew. I will ask you to record what happened at the Morgans’ family house.’

’Sir, I’ve made sure to record everything you see or hear, so you can feel confident that nothing is missed.’

’For real, Zoe? This is awesome. I can finally take down Morgan if they try to mess with me.’

Noah felt a warm glow of happiness in his heart. But that happiness gradually faded as he realized something important.

’Wait, wait... Zoe! If you can see and hear everything, can you do it every time?’

Noah’s anxiety grew as he realized Zoe knew every secret about him, even his most personal moments.

Thinking about it just made him feel nauseous.

’I only do that if something important happens, or, to be more precise, when you are in trouble; I will be aware.’

’Zoe, what about my mind? Are you able to access it?’ Noah asked, expressing his concern.

’Of course I can’t unless you allow me, sir.’

Noah feels relieved after hearing her reply. This is precisely what he hoped for; he has control over his mind, and this powerful system can’t access it.

After Noah asked Zoe to send him the video recording, he finally relaxed. But again, he was distracted when Zoe’s voice echoed in his mind.

’Sir, have you had a chance to look over The List yet?’

Noah’s eyes widened instantly. He had wanted to avoid it ever since Zoe mentioned The List on his first day in the Command Room.

He inherited ’The List’ of people he needs to eliminate, along with his wealth and system.

However, his low Power Level makes it impossible for him to complete this task.

He needs to level up before those people from ’The List’ discover his existence. And he believes some of them already know about him.

’Not yet!’

Noah didn’t completely tell the truth. He has checked a few times, but hasn’t made any move yet.

The most frightening element of The List is not a name or enemy profile; it appears in his system as a creature with a bizarre name.

They are not humans but evil creatures that have long been a part of fantasy stories. He never imagined such a being could exist, but now he knows it does.

’Sir, it might be a good idea to check it out! Try to locate them and attend to the weakest first before they become aware of your existence. That’s your best option.’

Zoe’s voice sounds calm, but Noah feels like her words are so sharp, stabbing his heart. It makes him gradually feel tense and slightly anxious again.

’What the... Why remind me now, Zoe!’

Noah sighed deeply. He didn’t try to find them sooner because he didn’t know their location.

And Zoe unfortunately doesn’t know either.

He must find them, as these creatures can disguise themselves as humans and blend in, and they are very powerful.

’Sorry, sir. I only try to warn you—’
