Just as Guan Sanke was frantically worried, a semi-transparent AI beauty came to his side, shoving a question right into his face.
"Director Guan Sanke, do you think you bear an inescapable responsibility for the current situation?"
"Every time something goes wrong, you want to pin the blame on the director!? Do you think I wanted things to turn out like this? Do you think a director does whatever they want? I said from the beginning, no reality shows, no reality shows! Did anyone listen to me? And now the blame falls on me again?"
Although Guan Sanke began shifting the blame through the Holy Grail media outlet, he didn't stop working. He began multitasking, controlling the Holy Grail's public opinion while steadily cleaning up Sun Jack's clones.
If such a big IP were truly ruined, there would be huge trouble, and he still wanted to try and save it.
Watching the red dots gradually vanish from the system, Sun Jack remained calm. Standing alone atop the rooftop, drenched in a downpour, he took a deep breath and raised his arms high.
"Holy Grail viewers and friends! I am Sun Jack! Want to see how I beat up Guan Sanke? Lend me your strength!!"
As he roared, various authorization requests began popping up on his system interface. Clearly, as Sun Jack had anticipated, there were plenty of onlookers on the Holy Grail who loved watching trouble unfold.
Soon, under Sun Jack's control, various combat mechs previously stationed inside various companies sprang into action. The subdued online public opinion also started to tear open, and those daredevil streamers who valued money over life began to emerge all around.
At the same time, Sun Jack began to mobilize all the liquid funds from the four companies, hiring all mercenary organizations in Metropolis. The corporate troops of the four companies also began to appear around Shendong Street.
"Sun Jack! Badass! You dare to mess with Holy Grail folks!" Steelheart, spouting flames from his back, flew past Sun Jack, giving him a big thumbs up.
Following behind him were Utopia Security mercenaries, who, led by Steelheart, charged towards the swarm of drones descending from the sky.
"Don't act recklessly, listen to my command!" Abu's voice rang in the ears of the mercenaries.
As Utopia Security got into action, all the corporate troops around started disarming their weapon safeties and opened fire.
"I thought you wouldn't come," Sun Jack laughed as he sent a message over to Number 13 from Gaofeng Technology.
"I'm loyal to capital, not to Holy Grail. You said that if we win this one, Gaofeng Technology will revert to me," said Number 13 coldly.
"My word, not even heaven can change!" Sun Jack declared. A blaze erupted behind him, and he lunged towards Guan Sanke.
The next second, gunfire erupted, and the entire Puxi District turned into a fierce battlefield.
Wielding a long stick in hand, Sun Jack continuously slashed at the various combat machinery lunging towards him.
Amid the flames and explosions, he once again confronted Guan Sanke, gripping the laser weapon tightly as he swung it towards his opponent's head with force.
However, the yellow laser stopped abruptly, 30 centimeters from touching Guan Sanke, and then his body started to deform.
"I designed this gear for you. Did you really think you could take me down with this?"
Just as Guan Sanke easily took control of Sun Jack and was about to say something mocking, he saw a red light flashing around Sun Jack's neck—a collar necklace adorned with a micro nuclear bomb that had been used before to threaten others.
The next second, the nuclear bomb detonated, and a blinding light enveloped both of them.
Sun Jack, who'd just switched into a new body, bore the pain and looked up, only to discover that the spaceships above didn't cease their attack; on the contrary, more and more spacecraft carriers kept dropping from the clouds, 2... 3... 4... until there were 10 before they finally stopped.
All ten spacecraft carriers, with their red sensor lights flashing, replaced the sky and shielded the rainfall, casting shadows over the entire Shendong Street.
"Sun Jack!!"
The thunderous voice of Guan Sanke once again erupted.
As the swarm of drones densely gathered in the sky and started twinkling with different lights, they gradually formed a humanoid shape, and in no time, Guan Sanke appeared in midair, almost as large as the spacecraft carriers themselves.
He looked down from his lofty position upon Sun Jack like ants below. "You think something that can't even kill you could kill the Holy Grail People?" he sneered.
The very next second, five of the spacecraft carriers started attacking with full force, utilizing lasers, unmanned drones, fighters, gravitational weapons, space missiles, and neutron bullets.
In the deafening explosions, death began to envelop the entirety of Shendong Street.
Facing the onslaught of ten spacecraft carriers, Sun Jack's combat forces were rapidly dissipating.
Yet in the face of all this, Sun Jack did not give up; he was waiting for something. "Of course, I know I can't kill you, but I know what can!"
He waited until the companies' troops were nearly annihilated, the whole Utopia Security building was flattened by gravity; still, he did not give up, he was waiting for something.
As his consciousness kept jumping and memories overlapped, Sun Jack began to suffer from splitting headaches and his consciousness seemed to become muddled.
One moment, he was Sun Jack experimenting inside a test body, the next moment he was Sun Jack checking the company's finances.
This wasn't the worst of it; the real problem was that Sun Jack's clones were also diminishing rapidly, and without clones, even with repeated overlaps, there would be no clones left.
Just as his clones were about to drop to single digits, the DNA research team from Gaofeng Technology sent a message.
"Boss, we've just made a significant breakthrough in DNA genetic technology! We can recombine your DNA! Not only will it help you escape Guan Sanke's control, but you will also gain more new abilities!!"
Soon, a drone carrying a syringe pump swiftly flew to Sun Jack, hovering in front of him.
Looking at the syringe pump with its semi-transparent liquid, Sun Jack laughed; he had finally waited for this moment!
Without any hesitation, he grabbed the syringe pump and fiercely plunged it into his neck.
The next moment, his pupils shrank to the extreme, his heartbeat accelerated, and his emotions surged with abnormal excitement.
"Oh, oh, oh~!! That's the feeling! It's coming! It's here!!! "Revolution Sun Jack"!! A grand serialization!!"
With Sun Jack's roar, the live show on the Holy Grail suddenly switched on with a snap.
The broadcast not only captured the once Sun Jack, but also Guan Sanke who towered above us all.
