Chapter 37: Mineral Resources



Even though the family had entrusted him with the management of Green Ivy Group, he still felt somewhat powerless in the face of that old man from the Taylor family. If it wasn\'t for Anna and the others arriving in time, the outcome would have been hard to predict…

"Stop crying for now." Lily, sitting next to Vicky, comforted her while expressing her indignation, "This is too much! I\'ve heard about that Dennis before. He\'s no good, always frequenting upscale clubs, who knows how many women he\'s ruined...

And that old man from the Taylor family, his methods are even more devious. Who knows how many families in the city have been destroyed by them over the years!"

"And that one, he\'s your uncle, right?" Lily glanced at Vicky and continued, "Anyone with a keen eye could see that, in order to curry favor with the Taylor family, he actually pushed his own niece into the fire! Such a person is the worst, and he deserves to die the most!"

"Enough, Lily. Stop talking." Seeing his sister\'s unrestrained words, James cautioned her, then turned to Vicky, "Vicky, even though we haven\'t had much contact before, since you are a friend of Irving\'s, you are also my friend. If there\'s anything the Green Ivy Group can help with, don\'t hesitate to ask."

James was somewhat aware of the current situation of the Smith family. Joseph had almost taken control of the entire Ocean Group. He continued, "Vicky, I suggest you don\'t go home for now. At least not until this matter is completely resolved."

Under Lily\'s comfort, Vicky\'s emotions gradually stabilized.

She wiped her tears but did not speak, her moist eyes turning to Irving.

It was this man who saved her from the brutal beasts, who helped her survive the first round of disasters, and who pulled her out of the mire of life.

She didn\'t know how to thank this man…

"Tears are the cheapest things in this world." Irving said lightly, "No one can help you forever. If you want to reclaim what belongs to you, you must first prove yourself. Only true strength is the key to breaking the chains."

Vicky was stunned, and the tears in her eyes stopped at that moment.

In an instant, she seemed to understand something. Not only her, but even James and Lily nearby were shocked by his words.

In this world of survival of the fittest, power is always king!

Whether it\'s the upcoming second round of disasters or the impending end of the world, countless cries and howls will echo in every corner of the world. But even crying your throat hoarse will be of no use.

"As for what you just said, the Taylor family will seek revenge." Irving gave a subtle smile.

He really didn\'t take the Taylor family seriously. Even without the government, even if Anna hadn\'t come, those from the Taylor family wouldn\'t have been able to take any advantage of him.

"If they want to come, I\'ll accompany them to the end!" After saying that, Irving looked at James, "By the way, what about that mine I told you about?"

"I\'ve already sent some of the powerful members of our guild over there. They should be mining by now." James replied.

Irving nodded, a touch of worry flashing through his heart for some reason.

When he discovered the mine, he wasn\'t the only one. And the resources in that mine were ideal materials both for upgrading equipment and for shelters.

"I suggest we send more people there. We can\'t let others take over the mine. Also, you need to speed up the mining process, especially for [Obsidian]. I need that material right now," Irving instructed.

After spending these past few days with James, Irving concluded that there was no need to keep secrets about the mine from him. Although his experiences in his previous life made him wary of trusting anyone easily, he recognized that his energy was limited. He couldn\'t possibly oversee the mining operations all day on his own.

The two talked a little longer. Since the first round of disasters, every player\'s shelter location in the Other World would be marked on the map and could be shared.

Irving shared the location of his shelter with James and then prepared to leave.

He originally had three days to prepare for the second wave of disasters. But time was running out after today\'s incident, and he got up to leave.

At this point, Vicky also got up, "Irving... I think I\'ll stay with you for now. I can\'t go home, I\'m afraid I\'ll be house arrest again, and hotels outside aren\'t safe."

Irving hesitated, "You can live with me, but you can\'t stay for free."

He continued, "How about this, you take care of all the housework and cooking, okay?"

Before Vicky could respond, Lily stood up, "How could you, Irving? Vicky doesn\'t know housework, and she has to cook for you? What are you thinking?"

It goes without saying that if others heard Irving\'s demands, they would also find them excessive... Vicky was one of the top ten beauties in the capital city. Many men would love to have her in their home.

"If not, forget it." Irving said without looking back, heading outside.

"Irving!" Vicky hurried after him. ""I promise you. It\'s just sweeping the floor and cooking meals. As long as you don\'t mind my cooking, I\'ll consider doing some chores as paying rent to you."

She wanted to thank Irving, let alone doing housework for him.

Seeing Vicky agree, Lily didn\'t say anything more. But she was uncomfortable.

In her eyes, Irving was just a talented player in the Other World, not worthy of a miss from a wealthy family.

"Irving, I want to ask you something." James came over with the car key. "Do you know the user called[Lucky Pretty Boy]on the forum? The guild is currently amassing a huge amount of gear, and I want to buy some from them. The monsters in the game are becoming increasingly powerful, so I really can\'t manage without proper equipment."

"James, don\'t bother asking him. He definitely doesn\'t know." Lily finally found a chance to embarrass Irving. "Since that post was published, not only us, but other powerful families have also been looking for[Lucky Pretty Boy], but no one has found him yet."

"Do you think he knows him if so many people can\'t find him?" Lily continued. "I think [Lucky Pretty Boy]must be handsome."

"Handsome?" Hearing this word, Irving laughed, "Didn\'t you say no one could find him? How do you know he\'s handsome?"

"What do you know?" Lily retorted. "In TV shows or movies, such mysterious players are usually handsome. And he has so many equipment, he must be powerful."

TV shows? Movies... Irving didn\'t expect that Lily actually liked chasing dramas and stars in her spare time.

Somewhat speechless, Irving asked with a hint of mockery on his face, "So, by your standards, do you think I\'m handsome?"

"You?" Lily looked at Irving critically and commented, "Well, your facial features are quite decent. But it\'s a pity about your dress sense - plain white t-shirt and jeans. No wonder the security at the banquet wanted to kick you out..."

"Lily!" Seeing his sister\'s words getting more and more excessive, James glared at Lily. His expression also became serious, and he scolded, "How can you talk to Irving like that? Have you forgotten what happened in the park last time? If it wasn\'t for Irving, we\'d be dead!"

James\'s gratitude for what happened in the park was still strong.

"All right, it was just a joke." Irving said, patting the annoyed James lightly. He said in a deep voice, "Forget about the equipment on the forum. The Angel Squad has already taken them all."

Hearing this, James was slightly taken aback and then seemed to realize something.

He had had suspicions about Irving from the start, and they were confirmed now. When he looked at Irving again, his eyes were full of astonishment.

"You... how did you know? Did Miss Anna from the Angel Squad tell you?" Lily pouted and asked.

"Because all that equipment is Irving\'s." Vicky explained. "During the first wave of disasters, I followed Irving and killed all the mutant beasts."

At this moment, the room seemed to freeze.

Both Lily and James were stunned, unable to say a word for a long time.

"What did you say? The user called[Lucky Pretty Boy]on the forum is him?" Lily was dumbfounded.

She originally wanted to use this issue to embarrass Irving, but in the end, she was the one who was played.

"Vicky, are you saying... all of them? You guys killed all the beasts in the horde?" James\'s heart was churning.

At this moment, he could no longer control his expression, opening his mouth in surprise.
