?Chapter 194:
Hearing Ewing’s words, Aelfric furrowed his brow. Moments earlier, Ewing had been terrified by Bee, but now, after a kick from Aelfric, he seemed to havee up with a n to handle Bee
Although doubtful, Aelfric replied, “Go on.”
“I can contact Him!” Ewing said, hesitating slightly
“With Him on board, we might find a way out. It’s unclear who is superior, Bee or Him. But if Him intervenes, it could give us time to devise a strategy and safeguard the Warren Group’swork,” Aelfric said
Raising his eyebrows, Aelfric asked, “Can you get in touch with Him?”
Ewing assured him, “Though Him’s been off the radar for years, his ount in the Hacker Alliance Network remains. I’ll send a message now and see if he responds.”
Your source: g??ln??v??ls.??????
Not entirely convinced but willing to try, Aelfric instructed, “Then reach out to Him right away! We’ll ept any conditions he proposes.”
“Got it,” Ewing replied, and he quickly moved to a secluded spot with his phone. Aelfric sat in front of theptop, reviewing the earlier conversation between Ewing and Bee on the screen
After a pause, he typed a message saying, “I’m Aelfric Warren. Why are you targeting the Warren Group?”
Bee replied, “Because I don’t like you.”
Aelfric was taken aback. He hadn’t expected Bee to be so bold. From this, he realized they must have crossed paths previously. Reflecting on past disputes and the many enemies he had made, Aelfric couldn’t pinpoint who might be seeking vengeance
After a moment of thought, he said, “Is there a way we can resolve this amicably? I could pay a settlement. Name your price.”
Bee’s answer was a simple “None.”
Aelfric asked, “Are we really heading for a do-or-die battle?”
Bee responded firmly, “Absolutely.”
Aelfric asked, “Do you really think you’re unbeatable, with so many skilled hackers out there? What if we hire someone better than you? A loss could really damage your reputation.”
Bee answered confidently, “I’m ready for that.”
Aelfric was visibly frustrated. Bee seemed unshakeable, resistant to any persuasion
While Aelfric was talking with Bee, Ewing reached out to Him, saying, “Mr. Him, the Warren Group would like to hire you to counter Bee’s attack. My boss says you can name the price.”
Despite his efforts, there was no reply from Him. It was as if the message had vanished. Ewing was anxious about how to tell Aelfric the disappointing news when he suddenly noticed new activity on the Warren Group’swork
His eyes widened in surprise. He thought someone was exploiting the turmoil. Unexpectedly, the neer joined the conversation between Aelfric and Bee, dering, “I’m Him.”
“Wow!” Ewing eximed, jumping up in excitement. “I actually got Him to join us! I can’t believe it!”
Overjoyed, Ewing hurried to Aelfric, pointed at the screen, and said, “Look, I’ve brought Him in!” Aelfric raised an eyebrow. He had been skeptical of Ewing’s ability to enlist Him, but now Him had entered the conversation
After a moment of thought, Aelfric said to Bee, “Him is with us now. Better watch out!” He then said to Him, “Thank you for your help. A handsome reward awaits you once we clear this mess!”
The senior members of the Warren Group gathered around theputer, energized and nearly ready to cheer and raise a ss to the good news
“Fantastic! Him is here!”
“With Him on our team, we’re in great shape!”
Ewing grinned broadly, proud to have recruited Him to their side. Despite this, Him ignored Aelfric and simply greeted Bee, “Long time no see.”
