Chapter 362


    Nicole gave him an indifferent look before turning away. Zeke was confused when he did not hear any


    response from her. When he lifted his head, he saw that she had already walked quite some distance


    away. He quickly chased after her.


    “Hey, Nicole! Don’t be so heartless!”


    Nicole ignored him. Her eyes glinted as she nced at the sky that was now bright. She did not speak.


    ‘That’s because there isn’t much time left,’ she thought.


    ‘I need to help Zeke get stronger as soon as possible,’ she thought again. In the end, Zeke did not get


    any answers. He dragged his feet back to his campus. He did not have many friends.


    Most people did not bother sparing him a nce. Zeke lowered his eyes-coldly. He did not want to be


    around thesemoners either. To him, only Nicole was his partner and good friend.


    ‘Nicole previously said we would take things step-by-step, but she’s suddenly sped up our training


    process. Something is definitely going to happen,’ he thought.


    ‘But I don’t know anything about it,’ he thought again.


    Zeke took out hisputer and sat in the corner. That corner was the camera’s blind spot, so no one


    could see what he had on hisputer screen.


    He opened The Hunters. To his surprise, the post that offered a 10-million-dor reward in exchange


    for the identity Lucifer had disappeared. Zeke frowned in confusion but quickly figured out what was


    wrong.


    The person must have realized how futile it was. He was not bothered. While he skimmed through the


    recent posts, one of the pinned missions caught his attention.


    It had a skeleton icon, indicating that it was a mission posted by a senior hacker. The person seemed


    to be asking the elites to set up a defensework to prevent data leaks.


    ‘Interesting,’ he thought.


    Zeke sent the mission details to Nicole.


    Nicole did not respond. However, Zeke did not get annoyed and looked at the screenshots instead. His


    expression started to change.

    He seemed to have seen this icon back at home before.


    During a mission one time, Karlo injured his right leg badly. When they brought him back, his leg was


    already infected and rotting. Karlo yelled at the military doctor when he said that amputation was the


    only. He then made a phone call while holding onto the pain.


    Soon after, a helicopternded. Several special force personnel that he had never seen before


    Nicole felt a hard object pressed against the back of her head as he spoke.


    The Nicole back then was a naive little girl, but the Nicole today was most familiar with this feeling


    ‘It’s the feeling of a gun pressed up against you,’ she thought.


    The man sneered when he saw her not put up a fight. He slowly utched the safety lever on his gun


    while watching the weak little prey in front of him.


    The sinister smile on his lips gradually grew wider. ‘She’s a mere child; I alone am more than enough to


    finish her off,’ he thought. She could clearly hear the sound of the man reloading the pistol. The man’s


    ‘What happened to Nicole? Why did she suddenly increase myps to twenty-five? Can a human run


    this manyps?!’ he thought.


    Zeke looked at Nicole, who was holding a stopwatch in the distance. At first, he would make silly faces


    at her. In the end, he was so tired he could barely lift an arm.


    Regardless, humans indeed have unlimited potential; Zeke managed to finish running twenty fiveps.


    He wiped away the sweat on his forehead with the towel on his neck. At the same time, he looked at


    Nicole and asked exasperatedly between pants, “Nicole, what’s up with you today? Why did I have to


    run ten extraps?”


    Soon after, a helicopternded. Several special force personnel that he had never seen before ran out.


    They were holding medical kits with the letter F on them.


    Karlo was taken away after he was given drugs and injections. When he returned, he was once again


    the strong father that he knew. That “F” he saw had a simr minimalistic and cold feeling to this icon.


    Zeke stared at the “G”. His gaze started to turn cloudy. He epted the mission and quickly got a


    response from the other end.


    “How confident are you? Hold on, Specter?”


    Zeke did not choose to stay anonymous. He revealed his hacker name to increase his chances of


    getting the mission.


    “How bad is it?”


    The person on the other end paused. It seemed as if the person found it hard to tell him what they had


    achieved with their ability. It took them a few seconds to type up a single message.


    Zeke stared at his response with a solemn expression.


    “It might crash any time. The backup defense system willst at most three days.”


    Zeke’s hands were busy. He quickly realized that the task required him to be onsite. He had to be there


    to operate the system unit. He gritted his teeth.


    “Send me the address.”


    Nicole was now back in ss. She noticed that everyone was looking at her strangely.


    Unlike the previous times, few were giving her scornful gazes.
