Chapter 1138


    Zeke reassured him, “Don’t worry. Once I find theyout, I will immediately cut off the power supply in


    the whole base. That way, I can erase all the traces I make in thework. They can’t track me down,


    and perhaps they won’t even realize someone has hacked their system.”


    Jack was worried. “The base is enormous. Are you sure you can cut off its power supply?”


    Zeke replied, “The base’s circuits are connected in series, so if one of them is short-circuited, the whole


    base will be affected.”


    He picked up a ss of water and passed it to Jack. “Follow my instructionster. Pour the water on


    the light switch when I ask you to.”


    “Alright!” Jack nodded.


    Zeke then used the tablet to connect to the internalwork as he began his work.


    His fingers glided across the keyboard nimbly, and the cking sounds of the keys rang incessantly.


    After a brief moment, the tablet started to beep.


    “It worked!” Zeke stared at the screen that showed theyout of the underwater base.


    In just one minute, Zeke analyzed the most likely location that the real Ares was incarcerated and the


    path he should take.


    Zeke instructed, “Pour the water now.”


    Jack quickly poured the entire ss of water on the light switch.


    Buzz!


    After a few sparks flew out from the switch, the entire base was plunged into darkness.


    The power had been cut off.


    Using the darkness as cover, Zeke followed the path in his memory.


    Half a minuteter, the power was restored, so the base was lit up once again.


    Meanwhile, Zeke reached his destination as well, the dumpsite at the edge of the base.


    Wearing a pair of white gloves, he destroyed the rm system on the door with his dagger and hacked


    into the electronic lock using his tablet.


    It took him only five minutes to unlock the door.


    After he took a deep breath, he pushed the door open and stepped inside.


    The ‘Dumpsite’ was cramped, dark, and humid to the point where the walls wereced with beads of


    water.


    A bald, old man was meditating on the floor as he breathed regrly.


    His limbs were all shackled by thick metal chains, so he couldn’t move at all.


    He was none other than the real Ares, and he looked much older than before.


    When Ares heard someoneing in, he opened his eyes abruptly.


    When he saw that it was Zeke, tears of joy started to well in his eyes.


    Imagine the happiness he must’ve felt to meet his old friend again after being locked up in darkness for


    so long!


    Zeke initiated the conversation first. “Ares, I never thought we would meet this way.”


    Ares eximed, “I never thought you would be the first one to find me too. How did you find out that I


    was here?”


    “With my instincts.”


    As he said that, he tried to break the chains shackling Ares.


    However, the chains were too sturdy, so it was impossible to break it by hand.


    Ares said, “Don’t waste your time. Even I can’t break this chain.”


    “What a stubborn man. Don’t forget that I have defeated you before.”


    Ares defended himself, “That’s in the past. Over the past few years, I have been developing new


    Zeke smiled wryly.


    Ares is just aspetitive as before.


    Zeke replied, “I think that you can’t leave this ce just yet. The chains shackling you are probably


    made of the strongest metal on earth. I can’t possibly break them by hand.”


    Ares suggested, “Destroy this base and release me afterwards then. Remember to leave some of the


    Bloodsworth Syndicate’s members to me; I want to kill them personally.”


    Zeke shook his head once again. “It’s not that easy. I took a look at theyout and realized that there


    are a few dozen exits here. Once weunch an attack from above, they’ll have more than enough time


    to escape. The Bloodsworth Syndicate poses a huge threat to Eurasia, so I can’t possibly let any single


    one of them of the hook this time.” N?velDrama.Org ? content.
