Upon his return to Proton, Yuan Guanghui's first action was to report to Shi Lijun.
After hearing the report, Shi Lijun's facial expression changed dramatically. He was taken aback by the fact that Qiu Yang had threatened him, as he had initially believed that Qiu Yang had come to negotiate for peace.
Shi Lijun exclaimed,
"This is completely unreasonable!" in response to Qiu Yang's direct threat towards the Proton Group.
Shi Lijun's anger was palpable as his face turned livid, and through gritted teeth, he said, "Reconsider your options and report back to Universal. I will make sure that none of their ships leave the port."
Upon returning to the company, Qiu Yang wasted no time reporting the situation to Liu Yong.
After hearing the report, Qiu Yang heaved and said,
"Boss, it seems like we have lost the first battle. However, we can't let this slide. We need to take some measures to get revenge on Proton Group."
Qiu Yang didn't have a concrete solution for revenge at the moment.
After all, Proton Group was a formidable opponent with over a hundred ships of varying sizes, including at least sixty to seventy ships weighing over 10,000 tons.
Moreover, the company was an industry giant with a significant influence.
Global Marine Services Company was relatively new and still needed to establish its influence in the industry. Thus, it was not equal to the Proton Group's strength.
Qiu Yang knew they needed to devise a solid plan to take revenge on the Proton Group, but it would be challenging.
Initially, Qiu Yang had anticipated that his boss would inquire about the next steps for revenge.
However, Liu Yong surprised him by stating confidently,
"Mr. Qiu, just sit back and enjoy the show. I have a plan to counter Proton Group."
Qiu Yang felt relieved upon hearing this and wanted to know more about the plan.
However, Liu Yong seemed unwilling to share the specifics, and Qiu Yang wanted to avoid pushing further.
As far as Qiu Yang was concerned, as long as their boss had a plan, he was satisfied.
He trusted Liu Yong's capabilities and knew his boss would not let the Proton Group defeat their company without a fight.
Liu Yong took a moment before revealing,
"I have a design sketch here that we can use. You can take it to a capable manufacturing factory to produce the necessary items according to the specifications in the sketch. Cost is not a concern, speed is the key factor. Ideally, the items can be produced within two to three days."
Qiu Yang got taken aback when he looked at the design sketch.
The drawing depicted a 20-meter-long giant spear made entirely of metal, with a thick metal handle measuring 300mm in diameter.
The handle alone must have weighed more than ten tons, and the spearhead was even more massive.
He couldn't believe what he was seeing. The design was outrageous and seemed utterly impractical.
However, he trusted his boss's judgment and knew there had to be a reason for this unconventional plan.
The spearhead was two to three meters long and equally thick, weighing an estimated five to six tons. Qiu Yang couldn't help but wonder what this massive 20-meter-long metal spear was intended for.
Who could wield such a heavy and unwieldy object?
Despite his doubts, Qiu Yang trusted his boss's ability to strategize and execute plans effectively.
He was eager to see how this outrageous plan would play out in their efforts to counter the powerful Proton Group.
Despite his suspicion and confusion, Qiu Yang agreed and nodded to his boss's instructions.
Liu Yong waved his hand dismissively and said,
"Don't ask any questions. Just manufacture the spear according to the specifications in the design. Use high-strength alloy steel, even if it's expensive. Once it's complete, store it in our warehouse by the sea."
Qiu Yang was left speechless when the boss gave his orders, so he had no choice but to keep his doubts to himself.
"Alright, I'll carry out your request immediately," he said.
Liu Yong nodded and urged him, "Hurry up and do it as fast as you can."
"I understand. It's urgently needed," Qiu Yang almost blurted out.
Li Can owns a large forging factory in Huahai City, and today he received a peculiar request.
Despite having over a decade of forging experience, Li Can has not encountered such a job before.
However, the client was audacious and had already paid half the fee upfront.
Even though Li Could be perplexed about why someone would want a spear of this magnitude, he immediately began forging it.
Presently, at the forging workshop site, a spear requested by Liu Yong is being forged on a colossal 10,000-ton forging machine.
The rhythmic sounds of the forging process echoed through the air: "bang, bang."
After two day shifts and one night shift, the spear was almost complete.
The workers were doing the final precision forging to make the spear more elegant and refined.
As they worked, they discussed the peculiar nature of the job.
"I've never seen a spear this big before. It's quite impressive,"
said one worker.
"I bet it's just for decoration," said another.
"No, the customer requested a hardened spearhead," interjected a third worker.
"I see," replied another.
"But for decorative purposes, high-strength alloy steel isn't necessary. It could even be hollow instead of solid."
Despite their discussion, the workers needed to be more knowledgeable about the purpose of the colossal spear.
After all, the spear was enormous!
Measuring 20 meters in length and weighing over ten tons, no human could wield it.
A physically robust individual could not lift it, as it weighed around 100 kilograms.
The sheer magnitude of its weight, over ten tons, was awe-inspiring.
Liu Yong and Li Changle were enjoying a movie together when Liu Yong suddenly felt a sense of relief after pondering how to handle the Proton Group.
They held hands while exiting the cinema with Li Changle when Liu Yong's mobile phone received a WeChat message.
He took it out to check and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
Qiu Yang sent Liu Yong a WeChat message stating that the colossal spear had been completed and was placed in the warehouse by the sea.
He also sent several pictures of the spear.
As Liu Yong viewed the photos, his satisfaction grew even more.
The spear had been delicately crafted in just two days despite its size.
The enormous spearhead had been sharpened, giving it a menacing appearance.
Li Changle approached Liu Yong and looked at the photo on his phone, confused.
"What is this?" asked Li Changle.
"It's a spear, freshly made," replied Liu Yong with a smile.
It was evident that Li Changle was not interested in the spear.
Glancing at the time, she noticed it was already past 10 p.m. and suggested, " Yong, it's getting late, can you take me back?"
Liu Yong had the same thought. With the completion of the colossal spear, he was eager to test it with the Overlord.
After dropping off Li Changle at her home, Liu Yong contacted Bawang while driving. Given the giant size of the spear, Bawang was the only one capable of handling it.
Bawang's growth rate had been astonishing; he weighed nearly 20 tons. His immense strength made him the perfect candidate to wield such a massive weapon.
This spear was built solely for the Overlord, a weapon intended to deal with the Proton Group.
To achieve his goal, Liu Yong had to ensure that his tools were sharp, and this spear was one such tool.
"Overlord, I have a surprise for you. I have placed a toy for you in the warehouse by the sea. Head over there and try it out to see if it still fits in your hand,"
Liu Yong informed Bawang.
Overlord quickly responded to his master's request, saying, "I'll go there right away."
Overlord was in the middle of his meal, which consisted of a whale shark filling his stomach.
Whether he ate a great white shark or an enormous whale shark, they were all part of his diet and provided a good meal.
Overlord discarded the remaining whale shark and swiftly swam towards the seaside warehouse.
Despite not putting in his total effort, Overlord could swim at over 100 knots.
