Chapter 142


    “And so it seems like we might actually die in this room.” Vinson smiled wryly. Yet, he had no fear of


    death. The word ‘fear’ did not even exist in his vocabry. Come to think of it, it’s not too bad to die


    here with Arielle by my side. “No way!” Arielle was very firm in her belief. “I can’t die yet, I still have lots


    to do.” His heart sank. I was just thinking it’s nice to stay together at the face of death. Lo and


    behold, she’s not even thinking about this… at all. I want to curse so badly, but I can’t. He coughed


    lightly. “What shall we do now? I’ve tried opening the door, but all efforts are in vain.


    All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    If we keep waiting for people toe and rescue us, we would’ve turned into ashes then.” Staring at


    the programming code which got hacked, Arielle fell silent for a moment. “Move aside, let me try.”


    “You?” Vinson remembered that Arielle knew some programming. However, he was doubtful of her


    skills. With only limited skills, can she do what I couldn’t achieve? While he was still contemting, his


    body had subconsciously shifted to give space for Arielle to take her seat in front of theputer.


    Calmly, she assumed her role and started searching for files on theputer without first addressing


    the programming issue.


    Vinson saw how she worked on the keyboard. She did not use the mouse, but merely carried out all


    operations on the keyboard swiftly. Her speed was even faster than his typing. It suddenly dawned on


    him that they might have a chance to escape death. Gradually, his trust for Arielle increased multiple


    folds. Seeing how she operates on theputer, I’m afraid she’s just being modest with her earlier


    statement. When she said she knows a little bit about acupuncture, she ended up demonstrating


    exceptional skills and healed the guy we caught. A few minutester, Arielle stopped.


    “What did you find?” Vinson asked. She pointed at the D drive on the screen. Narrowing her eyes, she


    exined, “The problem doesn’t lie in the program which can’t be removed, but here. This section has


    been tampered with. Originally, thisputer controls the program. Now that it’s been modified, the


    control system automatically relocates to a different ce.” “Where’s that?” he pressed on in curiosity.


    She shook her head. “I don’t know.


    I need to break the firewall in order to hack into their ultimate terminal and locate the ce. Also, when


    I get there, I need to delete the control system.” Vinson turned solemn. “Entering their terminal… This


    requires an expert level hacker. Can… can you do it?” Arielle took a deep breath. “I can’t promise you


    anything, but this is the only way. We’ve got to try it. Otherwise, everyone will die. Considering the


    material of the ss door, I’m not too hopeful that it could be broken from the outside either.”


    A rare and frightful uncertainty settled upon Arielle’s face. Gazing at her deeply, Vinson was about to


    say something when another deafening explosion came from upstairs. Bomb! That was the second


    explosion and it urred right above their heads! A humungous hole cracked open from the ceiling,


    apanied by raging mes.
