<P>
<P>FORUM CITY - Yet another company appears to have been swallowed by the seemingly endless pit which is WorldCorp.
<P>
<P>The multi-billion-credit corporation owned by the eccentric and infamous Scara B. King has bought Luminous Research Ltd., likely as a part of their plans to gain complete monopoly in the entire city.
<P>
<P>It was completely impossible to get a comment from anybody at WorldCorp yesterday, and neither would the owner and founder of Luminous Research comment on the matter. King Kashue of PlanetDeusEx, however, expressed his deepest concerns over what will happen to the economy of the city once WorldCorp has bought the last independant companies, a situation which now seems quite unavoidable. Is even the mighty King Kashue helpless to stand against the rampaging ruthlessness of WorldCorp?
<P>
<P>Raving Nutter of the well established Weapon Shop had the following to say about the case: "I dare Scara to come here and make me an offer I can't refuse. Because that can't be done! Whatever he offers to bribe me with, I will NEVER surrender my weapon shop to that old kook!"
<P>
<P>Whether or not the last few businesses in Forum City have what it takes to stand against the crushing tide of WorldCorp and their money, we will see soon enough. With rumours abound of trouble within Aunt Betty Industries following the WorldCorp takeover, one can always hope that the remaining businesses in the city will take heed and stay out of WorldCorp's way.
