Chapter 362

According to reliable sources, Drakengard Games and Pentime Group had been steadily increasing their investment in "Legend of the East" to maximize profits. Their spending covered a wide range of areas, including server leasing, international government relations, and large-scale advertising campaigns across Eastern Everreach.

The funds poured in like a steady stream-all to make "Legend of the East" an even bigger sensation.

Claude updated Jack on another piece of good news-due to "Legend of the West"'s overwhelming success, numerous business giants and financial institutions had expressed their interest in investing in Genesis Games.

Claude had already selected some reliable investors and wanted to invite Jack to head to Genesis Games' headquarters in Vexburg when he was free. He wanted the latter to meet these potential investors in person so they could proceed to cooperation.

Jack considered the matter after hanging up. The desire to get revenge surged within him. He elegantly threw his cigarette butt out of the window as his lips curved into a cold smile.

Patrick and Pentime Group's Wendy Trader had disrespected him, and he wasn't going to let them get away with it anymore.

Patrick and Wendy dreamed of having "Legend of the East" dominate Eastern Everreach's gaming market-they invested astronomical funds into the game to continue expanding the market. However, a sudden embargo descended on them like a lightning strike, destroying their dreams.

The embargo swiftly spread across various countries in the Eastern Everreach region, reducing Drakengard Games and Pentime Group's ambitious blueprint to dust. The funds they'd invested in the game went down the drain.

It turned out Genesis Group had already leveraged its international patent advantages to file lawsuits with the relevant departments. The operation was carried out discreetly, so Drakengard Games and Pentime Group had been entirely unaware.

This unexpected move caught Patrick and Wendy off guard, hitting them like a sudden, heavy blow. Only now did Jack's foresight prove itself worthy.

He'd long since had plans for Drakengard Games to stand on an international stage. So, he'd secretly applied for international patents when developing "Legend of the East" and similar games. This decision now became a fatal weapon to "Legend of the East".

With the announcement of the embargo, Eastern Everreach's regional distributors of "Legend of the East" descended into panic. Fearing removal due to copyright infringement and potential legal action from international intellectual property organizations, these distributors scrambled to protect themselves by swiftly pulling the game from their platforms.

Patrick and Wendy were dumbstruck when the news reached Zargonia. They would never have dreamed of a locally developed game infringing on international patents. Patrick fell sick because of this, and Wendy was furious.

They knew very well that "Legend of the East""'s failure didn't just mean massive financial loss—it would also be a destructive blow to Drakengard Games' plans to go public.

As for Wendy, this would be a powerful attack on her status as Pentime Group's successor. After all, plenty of people within the company were waiting to see her fall flat on her face. Even her siblings wouldn't mind kicking her when she was down!

She was a proud graduate of Harford University and had used her outstanding skills to lead Pentime Group to higher heights. Her move to work with Drakengard games in developing "Legend of the East" was viewed as an important battle to prove herself in her career.

If the game successfully won over the local market and even all of Eastern Everreach, it would undoubtedly make her influence and status in Pentime Group

soar.
