Chapter 256 Taking the Stage
The old man was seething with fury!
Kevin’s chest heaved with rage as his eyes stayed glued to the stage.
Jeremy strutted up to the platform with an insufferable`smirk.

Flanked by an army of assistants, he made a grand entrance and seized half the stage, acting as if he owned the entire showroom.
Seeing such behavior, plenty of onlookers felt an uneasy knot in their stomachs.
[Isn’t Perez laying it on a bit thick?]
[Why are his aides shoving Carter Group’s engineers out of the way?]
Jeremy’s assistants shoved Carter Group’s staff aside with open disgust, treating them like second–class citizens.
This was Valoria, Carter Group’s home turf, for heaven’s sake!
[Sure, Perez is a world–class authority, but there’s no call to be this rude.]
[The arrogance is just off the charts. Guys, I’m getting sick of watching this clown.]
The second such comments popped up in the chat, paid trolls and foreign worshippers instantly started barking back.
[What are you whining about? Carter Group got caught with their pants down and now you’re crying foul?]
[Exactly! Professor Perez just despises academic fraud, and who can blame him?]
[If you don’t have the tech, hit the books! Why fake it?]
[Carter Group brought this humiliation entirely upon themselves.]
[Right! If they hadn’t pulled this scam, Perez wouldn’t be on stage showing his disdain for Valoria! Carter Group dragged the whole country down to be mocked!]
[You reap what you sow. Why attack Professor Perez for calling out a blatant fraud?]
[Well said!]
The noisy mob spammed the chat, pinning all of Jeremy’s disrespect on Carter Group as though their alleged deception justified every bit of insolence.
Meanwhile, Jeremy finished setting up his diagnostic rig on stage, announcing smugly, “Valorian tech could never pull this off. Whether they cooked the telemetry or masked the brainwaves, this analyzer will lay their trick bare for all to see.”
Pure condescension dripped from his expression.

He certainly didn’t believe an actor was hiding inside G1, nor did he buy the nonsense about optical illusion rigs distorting everyone’s vision.
Those were just wild conspiracy theories concocted by uneducated netizens.
Yet he remained convinced that Carter Group had cut illicit corners somewhere, resulting in Gl’s unnatural fluidity.
It made no difference. If Carter Group dared to rerun the demo under his rose, his diagnostic suite would flag every anomaly and blow their scam wide open.
Turning toward the audience with an air of superiority, he continued, “Look here. This parameter tracks peak neural cortex activity.
“Only the sharpest spikes in activity register across this display.
“Only when neural thresholds push past this baseline can the interface’s EGEC Module lock onto the wave patterns and trigger physical motor reflexes in the bot.”
Jeremy cast a mocking glance at Eugene and sneered, “I wonder what kind of baseline Carter Group’s toy can actually pull?”
With that, he proudly commanded his own unit to run a brief loop, boasting, “My unit easily registers over twice that threshold, and that isn’t even my theoretical ceiling!
“To drive a frame with the kind of agility Carter Group glaimed, their baseline would have to be ten times higher than mine–over thirty times the standard index!
“How could that even be possible?”
A smirk of pure disdain curled his lips as he added, “No neural interface on this planet can process a data volume that massive!
