Unbeknownst to her, just two centimeters from the back of her head was the enemy’s weapon.
If Lil’ Teacher discovered them, she would likely be so angry she’d drop dead on the spot.
After several glances back yielded no results, she could only attribute it to her imagination and walk into the residence with her eyes closed.
However, as she passed through the door, the smart module on it suddenly emitted a red alert.
[Warning, unverified identity detected, please cease actions immediately and await staff review]
[Warning, unverified identity detected, please cease actions immediately and await staff review]
Lil’ Teacher thought the alert was directed at her, and she was so frightened she dropped the Medical Box and raised her hands in surrender.
She had seen on the street how the thing dealt with robbers, regardless of gender, they ended up incontinent from the shock.
If it happened here, her gaming life would probably be over.
But to her surprise, when she looked up, she found the camera of the smart module was not pointed at her but behind her.
She felt a chill as if remembering something, and began to tremble.
They say cameras can see spirits... having several people die tonight, could it be... a haunting spirit?
Lil’ Teacher, after conjuring up such thoughts, was so scared she sat down on the ground, not letting out a scream for a while.
"A ghost... there’s a ghost!!!"
But Yumi, who was glued to Lil’ Teacher’s back, was even more nervous than her, wanting to retreat but worried about startling the other.
[Yumi: Captain, I think I’ve been found, this family’s door seems to have a detection system QAQ]
[You Xiang: Weaving Princess, try hacking into the system and get Yumi out of there.]
Actually, at the first moment the door triggered the alert, Weaving Princess in the team had already tried hacking into the system.
But the slight issue was, the doorframe robot used a Gestalt network; the doorframe robot itself had only simple program responses, and the real role performing feedback was Sea God, the AI.
Even though Weaving Princess could be considered an elite hacker, in the face of a mature AI with server support, she was like walking into a trap.
Just entering the subnet, without analyzing the data fort, she was overwhelmed by Sea God’s data stream, barely holding on, unable to even spare computing power to answer her captain.
If Sea God’s aggression hadn’t been suppressed, its brain might have already turned into a babbling fool.
[You Xiang: Yumi, stand still, I’ll be right over]
[Yumi: Am I going to die... Captain, I’m still young, I don’t want to die TAT]
Although she said that, being a trained agent, Miyamoto Yumi stood motionlessly.
Unexpectedly, the second-floor A2 and 2B jumped off the balcony after sensing the commotion downstairs, and their landing was just right behind Yumi.
Optical camouflage only deceives vision, not entering subspace. This directly caused the immobilized Yumi to lose her balance, staggering and swaying towards the door.
The moment she moved, it immediately triggered the doorframe robot’s response—a pair of electric motors shot out wires directly, hitting the target and delivering high voltage.
Under the influence of the voltage, the optical camouflage skin immediately failed.
And in Lil’ Teacher’s despairing gaze, a large-breasted ghost abruptly appeared, lunging at her; there was no time to escape as the enormous weapon directly hit her head, pressing Lil’ Teacher entirely beneath.
"Ugh!!! I can’t breathe!!!"
"I cannot breathe!!!"
You Xiang witnessed her team member being toppled in such a comical way, feeling both painful and distressed.
Meanwhile, hacker Weaving Princess finally suffered defeat at Sea God’s hands, fainting instantly, her optical camouflage skin naturally failing, collapsing onto You Xiang.
Undoubtedly, the mission was a failure, and an abject one; Valerie couldn’t help but cover her face, unable to look.
Exposed Yumi directly triggered the entire camp’s players to sound the alarm, while unresponsive Weaving Princess was noticed by Gulu Gulu, who covered her with a towel and brought her into the residence. Read full story at novelꞁire.net
As for You Xiang, no way she could outrun the patrol doorframe robots—hardly anyone noticed these robots previously because their design was too inconspicuous, both goofy and silly, nowhere compared to Zeta Technology, military tech, and Huang Ban’s robots, which scream futurism.
Soon they scanned You Xiang, sneaking out, and surrounded her completely; patrolling players made escaping impossible, forcing her into a dead end.
You Xiang, unable to take it anymore, immediately pulled out the monomolecular wire, attempting to slice one of the robots and exploit the breach to break out.
2B instantly synced with the doorframe robot’s view, seeing a retreating figure, quickly rushing to the person’s back, the long blade pressed against You Xiang’s neck.
"Reveal yourself, surrender."
The brief four words were in an unquestionable cold tone.
You Xiang was more shocked by the opponent’s speed, such speed left her no chance to resist.
Valerie immediately slapped the table, stood up, and said
"Initiate self-destruct protocol, we can’t allow them another captive."
Yet someone acted faster than her, 2B immediately jabbed a data cable into You Xiang’s nape, directly overwriting the opponent’s system program, erasing internal self-destruct software, and on Huang Ban’s side, it showed destroyed, even surveillance view vanished.
Counterintelligence suffered a miserable defeat, losing three waves of agents consecutively.
Even Carter couldn’t help but step back two paces, distancing from Valerie.
Such a level of failure was enough to end this woman’s career; whether she could keep her life was now uncertain.
