Lucrezia responded with a serious and professional tone. “Everything seems fine, I’ve also talked to Captain Sabertooth, and nothing unusual has come up.”

“Isn’t that good news?” Nouel replied, maintaining a casual demeanor.

“I don’t know, it feels like there’s a covert plan in motion, something unknown is happening.” Lucrezia sounded suspicious, and Nouel himself was thinking the same thing.

“Oh, so you’re thinking what I’m thinking.”

“Do you have any suspicions or something?” Lucrezia asked seriously, knowing who Nouel was and what kind of mindset he had. Despite his sometimes unpleasant nature, Lucrezia believed he was someone who always thought quickly, openly, and responsively.

“It’s not certain yet, but it’s confirmed that there are supporters of the rebels, maybe even part of the rebels themselves. I don’t know if this faction is composed of staff, security, or one of NewTech’s executives, but I sense something is going on.” Nouel immediately revealed what he had observed a few

    Instantaneously, Nouel shifted his gaze, adopting a serious expression.“What’s happening?” Nouel inquired through his communication device.“There’s an attack, the rebels have emerged,” responded one of his subordinates promptly.“Of all times,” Nouel muttered under his breath.“Do they really show up?” Nouel clarified, referring to the rebels rumored to attack the NewTech building.“Yes, Captain, it’s confirmed.”“Hard to believe. They shouldn’t have come.”Nouel sounded displeased, as if all his predictions or assumptions about the enemy were off, not aligning with his thoughts, leaving him quite unhappy.“Their numbers are significant, and some vehicles breached the compound,” one of his subordinates reported from the other side.“What are your orders?” Vera asked, sounding vigilant and serious in responding to the situation.Nouel, remaining calm, immediately issued instructions. “All teams, be on high alert. If there’s contact, try to keep them in the compound, don’t let anyone

    The drone detected that the enemy’s armor was identical to the one crafted by Nouel himself. Clearly, the information provided by the drone caught him off guard, and Nouel, suddenly surprised, halted his movements and ceased firing.“How could this happen?” he murmured softly. For a moment, he stood still in his hiding spot. “How could they get their hands on my creations? My technology should be impossible to duplicate.”In reality, Nouel designed his armor, seeking and acquiring uncommon materials. The design of his armor was vastly different from the armor and equipment produced by NewTech Industries. One could say that Nouel’s handmade armor was unique. Now, discovering that the enemies were using his technology, he was genuinely taken aback.“Captain, what’s happening? Why are you silent?” Vera asked, indeed, Nouel seemed momentarily stunned. Fortunately, he hadn’t been hit by a single bullet.Hearing Vera’s words, Nouel snapped out of his thoughts and promptly resumed the attack

    Once his footing was stable, Nouel directed his unarmed left hand forward, activating the tracking launcher. The screen in front of his face instantly activated the long-range sight. Following the AI’s guidance, Nouel took the shot.“Tracking rocket launched, successfully hit the target!” declared the AI system.“Excellent. This way, I won’t lose their trail,” Nouel thought to himself. He then observed the screen displaying the positions of enemy vehicles tracked by the tracking rocket.Suddenly, something whizzed past his head, grazing the outer layer of his helmet. Reacting swiftly, he turned towards the source of the shot. The AI assistant promptly scanned, searching for the specific location of the shooter.“A sniper? Damn, where is it?” Nouel immediately went on high alert.In just a few seconds, the AI obtained the necessary information and quickly provided details on the sniper’s location.“There you are,” Nouel mumbled when he identified the sniper’s position.Since snipers ha

    As Nouel laid eyes on her, he was stunned, wearing an expression of disbelief, shocked by the armor the woman had on. Regardless of the angle, the attributes she wore closely resembled Nouel’s own. Earlier, it was explained that Nouel’s gear was his own creation, making it unique, but apparently, that wasn’t the case.Nouel regarded the figure with suspicion and vigilance. The person turned out to be a woman wearing the same armor as Nouel, albeit with slightly different colors and designs.“Oh, damn. This time it’s almost identical. What kind of absurdity is this?” Nouel felt irritated as he saw the woman emerge from behind the truck he had stopped. The armor she wore looked nearly identical to his, with a few distinctions.She ordered her troops to retreat, taking it upon herself to face Nouel. Nouel couldn’t comprehend why she was wearing armor identical to his own. Consequently, Nouel immediately set aside his mission, not caring even when the enemy forces unloaded the cargo from

    "I apologize for offending you, but that's the fact. Looking at that armor, even though it's my creation, it's an old model. What I'm wearing now is a new model with several improvements," Novel explained casually."You know, the armor isn't the only thing I rely on.""Oh, really? Judging by your movements, I'm superior in combat as well."The woman responded nonchalantly, "Maybe you prefer creating weapons rather than talking."Nouel shook his head. "I'm tired of responding to this useless conversation. Since you won't provide answers, I'll have to force you.""I'd be happy to be forced by you."They both moved again, accustomed to their respective speeds and agility. Nouel tried to intimidate the woman with a few swings of his fake swords, then suddenly directed a punch straight towards her face. She agilely dodged, smoothly evading the attack.As they continued to duel, Nouel's perspective suddenly changed, as if bringing the reader into his point of view. "So many mysteries behind

    With time running short, they returned to the NewTech building.The damage caused by the rebel attack seemed to be under control. Machines, construction robots, and human forces were all engaged in repairs. Of the total security guards who resisted, more than half were injured, excluding the cyborg forces, who were better trained for dangerous situations, equipped with armor to minimize the impact of injuries.Currently, Nouel and his team gathered in a room where the head of NewTech Industries was scolding them, furious about the failure that occurred.“You’re all a disaster! I can’t entrust this crucial mission to you! All you’ve produced is failure and losses. What’s the point of paying you so much if you only create problems and can’t accomplish tasks properly?” Mr. Gustavo appeared extremely angry, far more than he should, as if he had lost something invaluable.Nouel and his team remained silent, ears tuned in without uttering a word.“Damn it! What have you done?! I gave you a

    After leaving the general’s room, Nouel rested in the Wolf team’s special room, where no one was present at that moment, all members had left the headquarters.“Nouelvaegnr.” Professor Volkov entered the room while Nouel was enjoying a cold drink, still wearing his armor. “Do you have a moment?”“You rarely seek me out. Is there something important?” Nouel asked, turning towards the man. Professor Volkov’s mood seemed to be in good spirits.“Yes, it’s about the autopsy results of those cyborgs.” Professor Volkov nodded, responding to Nouel’s earlier question.Nouel became immediately interested since this information was what he had been waiting for since yesterday. “Oh, so your team has obtained the results?”“You could say that. It was a challenging and meticulous task, but in the end, we managed to gather all the necessary information.”“I’m honestly tired, but this is something I need to know. Right now, I need information in any form. This attack was once again different from the

    Professor Volkov knew Nouel was joking, but he still reprimanded him. Ignoring the reprimand, Nouel promptly gave orders. “Continue.”Edith then resumed explaining the autopsy process, detailing how they successfully extracted the necessary information from the deceased cyborg’s body. “The team needed not just days for corpse identification, but also time for the body and head dissection, especially when unlocking the well-secured chip system. A slight misstep in movement could burn the chip. Hence, everyone involved in this task proceeded with utmost care and caution.”“I anticipated it would be challenging, but I didn’t expect the execution to be even more difficult than I thought,” remarked Nouel thoughtfully.“Yes, the system is intentionally designed to erase evidence when someone attempts to dissect these cyborgs’ heads.”“The chip?” Nouel glanced at the carefully placed chip inside a special glass-covered holder on the table. Besides the secured chip, there was also a computer

    Nouel was in the garbage area, in a slum district where there was a massive landfill site originating from various areas, especially the city center, resulting in the landfill site being mountainous. The landfill site was located outside the city walls, and Nouel had already made a hole to enter and exit the city through a secret passage.“What are you doing here?” Dvliericht asked, having managed to catch up. He looked uncomfortable walking on the pile of trash, his gas mask protecting his entire face and head looked worn out and unfit for use.“Looking for the trash I need.” Nouel answered without looking, digging through the garbage. Since Nouel had been forced to stay in the shelter by Dvliericht, the two young men had developed a close friendship, despite having very different and somewhat contradictory personalities.Dvliericht placed his hands on his hips and scanned the surroundings. “We shouldn’t be here, if the city patrol catches us, it could be dangerous.”“In that case, k

He took precise aim, picking off the robots one by one.“Wow, you’re really good, so accurate with your shots.” Velia praised and appreciated Xander’s actions through the earpiece.“It’s not enough yet, there are still some robots evading my attacks!” Xander exclaimed, then explosions were heard, destroying the walls of the long corridor.“Keep it up, Xander, we’re approaching the exit!” Velia cheered, seeing that their exit route was close ahead.“Of course, I’ll keep attacking until all the ammo is gone!”When the rover vehicles finally reached the end of the escape route, they immediately halted. Xander and several others hurriedly got out of the rover and attempted to close off the escape route. They collectively tried to seal off the passage.Some others disembarked and headed towards the aircr

    Inside the underground headquarters, after Xander delivered this information, everyone immediately started packing, which naturally took a very long time as everyone was unprepared for evacuation.“The aircraft is completed, but it hasn’t been tested yet. Should we still go?” Dimitri asked, concerned about the aircraft’s condition, which hadn’t undergone testing yet.“Yes, we don’t have time anymore. Regardless of the aircraft’s condition, we’ll use it. It’s risky, but we have no other choice.” Makarov replied.“Let’s hope we make it.”Elsewhere, inside a large cargo aircraft, Volkov and his forces of robots and cyborgs, who were aware of the underground building being used as a headquarters, were preparing for their attack.“See, I told you this would work.” Clerick smirked evilly at Darina. “Instead of capturing and torturing one of them, it’s much better if we follow them discreetly and install a tracker on the target.”That’s how Volkov found out about the secret project being wor

    Chapter 137 – Accelerating the Ongoing Project

    June 9, 2094Time passed quickly, years went by, and humans had grown accustomed to synthetic food. Numerous factories were established in all four cities, and cyborg projects began to be implemented. Initially, it was limited to body parts like hands and legs, then expanded to organs like eyes. After the success of the project applied to Vera, cyborgs started to appear all over the city.Due to the special requirements for humans to endure the surgical process, the limited number of cyborgs created across the city meant they weren’t dominant yet. Only a few hundred existed, mostly composed of city security forces, not commercially available to ordinary residents. Therefore, despite the success, Volkov continued experiments and developments to make the cyborgs he created more perfect and applicable to all humans.While working on advancing cyborg technology, Volkov accidentally discovered several individuals recruited by Dimitri and Makarov. He was surprised by this development becaus

She was depressed and desperate with her life.Some time later, Volkov came and comforted her. However, Vera didn’t respond, despite being continuously ignored like that, Volkov kept trying to console and strengthen her resolve.“I know you’re very desperate with your body condition. But you can’t torture yourself like this continuously.” Volkov spoke gently and softly, truly reflecting like a man who could be relied upon by Vera, who really needed it.After ignoring Volkov for a while, Vera finally spoke up, asking him a question. “Professor, what would you do if you were in my position?”For a moment, Volkov didn’t respond, he glanced briefly out the window, then turned his attention back to Vera, calmly and softly speaking to the teenage girl. “I think I would also feel desperate, and I would also want to die.

    Thanks to advanced medical technology, Vera, who suffered serious injuries due to Darina’s actions, was able to regain consciousness quickly. Severe injuries that should have put the teenage girl in a coma turned out to heal much faster. Unfortunately, there were still limitations in the equipment and technology applied at the hospital, as they couldn’t yet cure serious injuries resulting in physical disabilities. And that’s what happened to Vera, the injuries she sustained left her whole body permanently disabled.For a few seconds, Vera glanced around, her eyes feeling very sore as she looked at the ceiling of the room. The light in the room wasn’t dazzling, yet Vera’s eyes still felt sore and irritated.Vera closed her eyes, trying to move to pull the blanket, but she had no access to her body, she couldn’t move any part of her body.“What’s this? I can’t move my body.”Vera tried to turn her head sideways, but she couldn’t do it, she couldn’t move her head even slightly. Failing i

    Finnick, Darina, and Clerick were already in position, monitoring the movement of the electric car driven by the small family from a distance. Volkov himself was opening a transparent tab as if he were working on something.“Okay, I think the subject has taken the bait. I don’t see any other humans within a 1-mile radius, we can execute the mission now.” Darina murmured while observing the small family through the scope of the sniper rifle she was aiming at the car. She herself was lying prone on the rocks, positioning herself strategically for the attack.“Moreover, this area is highly prone to accidents,” Clerick replied, standing next to Volkov. They were amidst the trees of the forest, monitoring using long-range binoculars.“Yeah.”On the other side, atop a tree, Finnick was adjusting the control of the machine device he had created. “My puppet’s status is stable now, we can act anytime.” He informed.“Good work, wait for the signal.” Volkov replied.They spent a few more seconds

Darina and Volkov focused on being doctors at Hudson Hospital, they appeared very kind and friendly to the staff, nurses, and the patients they treated. This made no one suspicious or even think that they were evil people who had conducted various experiments that violated ethics and humanity.In addition to their friendly nature, their work was also very good and fast. Their surgical skills were very reliable and made them among the most trusted doctors. They also interacted quite a lot with every patient they treated, so almost all patients could get to know them well.Unbeknownst to them, two days had passed. This was the day when Clerick would present the results of his work.“Huh, it’s also enjoyable to train in acting by playing as a good and holy doctor.” Darina stretched her body.

    Chapter 132 – Failed Cyborg Project

    Hudson Hospital.A five-floor hospital, it was one of the major hospitals in Lycaelus City, admitting more than one new patient daily with various conditions. The hospital was always bustling with patients, and the number of nurses and medical staff working there was substantial.At this hospital, Ferdinand Volkov worked on his project. Whenever someone underwent amputation, they would be offered artificial limbs. Those who wanted to live normally would readily accept the offer. Similarly, those in need of organs would be offered either donor organ transplants or artificial organs. Since waiting for a donor or purchasing existing organs was costly, patients tended to opt for Volkov’s artificial organs. Besides being more affordable, easier to care for, these artificial organs and limbs had several advantages over those of regular humans. Gradually, over the years, Volkov’s cyborg project began to take shape.Unbeknownst to anyone, many of the surgeries to implant organs and artificial
