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 glanced 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 glance. Zeke lowered his eyes-coldly. He did not want to be around these commoners 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 his computer and sat in the corner. That corner was the camera’s blind spot, so no one could see what he had on his computer screen.

He opened The Hunters. To his surprise, the post that offered a 10-million-dollar 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 defense network 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 helicopter landed. 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 unlatched 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

laughter slowly faded away. It was at that moment that Nicole shut her eyes. She knew, things were about to go down.

‘What happened to Nicole? Why did she suddenly increase my laps to twenty-five? Can a human run this many laps?!’ 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 five laps. 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 extra laps?”

Soon after, a helicopter landed. 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 similar minimalistic and cold feeling to this icon. Zeke stared at the “G”. His gaze started to turn cloudy. He accepted 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 will last 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 class. She noticed that everyone was looking at her strangely.

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