My Ultimate Sign-in System Made Me Invincible Chapter 721 It All Ends

Across the globe, humanity engaged in its most consistent behavior. They found a target for their rage. The video released by Nova Technologies provided a very clear target.

Everyone who watched the footage felt a deep sickness form in their stomachs. The public could not stomach the reality of the situation. The rage directed itself at the wealthy culprits, but it also slammed into governments around the world.

The Guatemalan government faced the most brutal backlash. The abduction happened on their soil. The mercenaries took a Guatemalan citizen from a house the government explicitly promised to keep secure. The video proved a high-ranking state official actively helped the Meridian Continuum bypass local security.

Less than an hour after the video flooded the internet, the Guatemalan President walked into the national press briefing room. He stood behind a heavy wooden podium.

Camera flashes went off in rapid succession, blinding him for a second. He looked at the teleprompter. He cleared his throat and read his prepared crisis management script. He apologized to his people and to the world for the state's negligence.

He announced the immediate suspension of the corrupt officials named in the video. He confirmed the police had already detained the traitors. He promised thorough investigations and strict punishments according to the law.

The public refused to accept the apology. The journalists in the room did not write down his promises. They yelled over each other, demanding real answers.

Outside the government building, thousands of citizens pushed against metal barricades. The crowd threw rocks at the reinforced windows. They chanted for life imprisonment. The extreme factions of the crowd screamed for immediate executions.

The citizens of Guatemala did not just feel angry about the trauma Maya suffered. They felt a deep, burning betrayal. The leaders they elected to protect them threw a child into a den of wolves for offshore bank accounts.

The shameless level of corruption disgusted everyone. No one wanted to hear a rehearsed speech about investigations. They wanted the people responsible to cease existing.

The President heard the crowd chanting through the thick glass. He realized his script held no value. He pushed the papers off the podium. He leaned into the microphone and spoke directly to the citizens. He dropped the political tone and showed actual sympathy.

He talked about Maya and her mother and he stated the military currently surrounded their house in a defensive perimeter.

Across town, armored personnel carriers blocked the street in front of Maya's home. Heavily armed soldiers stood shoulder to shoulder on the lawn. They held their rifles across their chests and watched the dark street. Inside, Maya and her mother sat on the couch, safe but surrounded by the chaos of their new reality.

The rest of the world watched the same panic spread through their own capitals. Politicians scrambled to survive the fallout. Governments with any ties to the entities named in the video held emergency press conferences.

Prime Ministers and Presidents stood under bright studio lights and publicly denounced the Meridian Continuum. They severed all contracts and froze accounts.

No one wanted to go down with a sinking ship. The global leaders understood the reality of the situation. Nova Technologies operated with post-scarcity absolute capital. They possessed the industrial capacity to build a fifty-five-kilometer space station in thirty days. The old world leaders knew they could not fight an entity with that much power.

To further appease the angry public, governments whose citizens were clinical trial volunteers, issued statements of absolute condemnation. They ordered local law enforcement to mobilize. Police cruisers parked outside volunteers homes around the world. Officers stood on the sidewalks and monitored every passing car. The governments ramped up security to prove they still controlled their own borders.

For the billionaires and executives named in the video, their lives collapsed overnight. The Meridian Continuum originally believed they could outsmart Nova Technologies. They thought they could steal the technology and reverse-engineer it in the shadows. They now realized the true scale of their miscalculation.

Inside a high-security detention center, a Meridian Continuum executive sat on a metal cot. He wore a standard orange jumpsuit. The rough fabric scratched his skin. He stared at the concrete floor. The cold air blew from a small vent in the ceiling. He rubbed his bare wrists.

He and his partners thought about fighting the allegations. They wanted to claim Nova Technologies fabricated the whole thing. They wanted to tell the media the video was a deep fake generated by artificial intelligence. He knew that defense would fail before his lawyers even spoke the words.

Nova Technologies provided a flawless paper trail. They released the encrypted chat logs, the bank routing numbers, and the exact timestamps of the offshore transfers.

The video showed every meeting and every transaction in perfect clarity. The footage covered every angle of the conspiracy. The lawyers could not argue a breach of privacy. The world saw their overarching plan exposed in high definition.

The executive rested his head against the cold concrete wall. He sat in his cell and accepted his defeat. It all started with the Maybourbe group. The Maybourbe group tried to challenge Nova by exposing Liam's wealth and lost everything. Now, the Meridian Continuum followed them into the mud. They lost completely. Nova Technologies destroyed their entire empire without firing a single weapon.

The sun set and rose again. The day passed quickly with the global commotion running at full speed. Even after more than twenty-four hours, the video remained the only thing anyone talked about.

News anchors played the footage on a continuous loop. People argued on social media platforms. They discussed the geopolitical fallout in coffee shops, on trains, and in grocery stores. The global public remained entirely consumed by the incident. There was no end in sight for the outrage.

The anger fueled endless conversations. Pundits wrote long articles about the failure of global security. Citizens signed petitions demanding harsher laws.

The world focused entirely on the mercenaries, the corrupt politicians, and the rescued girl. Everyone expected this single event to dominate the news cycle for the rest of the month. They thought nothing else could possibly capture their attention.

And just as everyone thought that the rest of the month was going to be filled with conversations about the incident, Nova Technologies dropped an announcement.

In the Lunar Base, Lucy smiled proudly to herself on how she handled the situation. She had finally taken care of the nuisances in her father's way, which made her really happy.

But not everyone was happy, as Yanxia was sulky about not getting her scorched earth scenario.
