Chapter 390


    A tense expression crossed Dave''s face when he heard Miguel''s words. “What do you mean?”


    “Someone hacked into the Overseer System and tracked where your car was heading from the airport.


    I''m guessing that you are being followed,” Miguel informed with a stern expression.


    Dave and Keh exchanged worried nces at the same time.


    “Can we find out who it is?” Dave asked grimly.


    Miguel shook his head. “Our men tried to track the perpetrator but failed. Whoever the hacker is, he''s


    more skilled than us and swiftly withdrew once he knew we were on to him.”


    Narrowing his eyes, Dave inquired curiously, “If the hacker is as sophisticated as you say, why was he


    discovered when hacking into the Overseer System? Miguel, I remember that no one noticed when you


    hacked into it thest time.”


    “I was thinking about this inconsistency too. There can only be two possibilities. Firstly, someone


    noticed thework freezing. Secondly...”


    “What is it?” Dave asked.


    “The hacker deliberately left tracks for us to find,” Keh suggested.


    Miguel nced at Keh before nodding in agreement. “These are the only two possibilities.”


    Dave broke into a smile. “It looks like the party in Spaunia is getting livelier.” Just as he spoke, he


    looked in Keh''s direction. “J, do you think I''m the target or you?”


    Keh wasn''t surprised by the question. “Is there a difference?”


    “Of course there is. I can''t allow a friend on a rare visit to be dragged into my affairs,” Dave answered.


    An indiscernible glint shed across Keh''s eyes. “I''m afraid I''m the one who got you involved.”


    “Do you mean he could be from Vermillion Base?” Dave asked but quickly answered his own question.


    “That''s unlikely. If they knew who you were, I probably would have heard of it. Besides, how would


    Boss, who''s extremely busy now, have time to keep an eye on you?”


    “He doesn''t have to because he knows that I would definitelye,” Keh remarked with certainty.


    “Are you saying that it was his men?” Dave asked.


    Keh shook his head. “I can''t say. It feels more like an entirely new faction.”


    Dave''s eyes narrowed. “That''s what my hunch says too. If it were Boss, he would have openly dered


    war instead of using such ndestine methods. Furthermore, he would let us know that he was


    watching us.”


    Keh concurred with a nod.


    Unfortunately, no matter how hard they wracked their brains, they couldn''t think of anyone else.


    Dave looked at him. “Aren''t you supposed to be retired? How did you end up offending so many


    people?”


    Keh quipped, “I can''t help being born attractive.”


    “That''s true. You never fail to attract enemies!” Dave teased.


    Not disputing the statement, Keh curled his lips in response. After all, he couldn''t deny that was


    At that moment, Dave broke into a mischievous smile. “From my perspective, it seems that God is on


    my side. Look at how many experts are gathered here. Fate has evidently brought you here to help me


    take them all down. Say, do you think DX will stand at the top once all of them are wiped out?”


    Keh was cognizant that when Dave mentioned “all of them,” it naturally included Shadow Seeker.


    Keh calmly reminded him, “Be careful of getting carried away, for you might end up biting off more


    than you can chew.”


    Dave ignored the warning with a smile. “With you around, what have I to fear? Furthermore, peace has


    reigned too long in Spaunia. It''s time to shake things up a little.” At that moment, a bloodthirsty glint


    faintly shed across Dave''s eyes.


    Keh threw him a nce without making ament.


    After all, Dave might not follow through with his words.


    If he did, he would run the risk of being attacked by thebined strength of the other organizations.


    That was a development that brought no benefit to DX at all.


    Nevertheless, Keh could vaguely sense that there were many different factions hidden within


    Spaunia itself.


    He didn''t know why they hade and couldn''t care less about them. However, he had a strong hunch


    the matter with Vermillion Base wouldn''t be easily resolved. More importantly, there was a sense of


    impending chaos just beyond the corner.


    As for how it was all going to end, no one had any idea.


    Regardless, he would keep Natasha safe,e what may.


    At that moment, his train of thought was broken by Miguel''s question. “Dave, in that case, do we need


    to make any preparations?”


    Dave''s eyes sparkled momentarily. “Didn''t you say that the hacker is more skilled than you are? What''s


    the point in preparing?”


    “I can gather a few of my friends tounch abined attack. We''ll stand a better chance that way.”


    Dave furrowed his brows upon hearing Miguel''s suggestion. “Is there really such a big difference


    among the skills of hackers?”


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Miguel nodded. “A small variation makes a world of difference.”


    “In that case, is there a way to differentiate those among you? For example, even though people have


    different characters and methods of doing things, we are still able to stereotype them. A person of a


    certain character has a fixed way of doing things. Therefore, aren''t you able to tell after battling each


    other so frequently?” Dave asked.


    “There is. Some like to attack aggressively, while others prefer a more indirect approach. However, I


    have nevere across someone like that amongst all my opponents. His method might look ordinary,


    but his sequence is illogical, making him unpredictable. Furthermore, the way he attacks is extremely


    ruthless—” Midway through his exnation, Miguel suddenly froze with his brows furrowed.

    “Such methods remind me of someone,” Miguel suddenly remarked.


    “Who is it?” Dave asked.


    Miguel answered hesitantly, “Anonymous...”


    Dave''s eyes narrowed. “Are you sure?”


    Miguel shook his head and borated, “I have not battled him before and only saw a video about him.


    Someone had made a recording while going against him. Even then, it was only a short clip, but it


    made a deep impression on me. Nheless, I''m still not sure if it''s really him.”


    Dave cracked a smile. “If it really was him, there''s more to this matter than meets the eye.”


    “Can it be that Anonymous challenged you on purpose, knowing that you''re looking for him?” Keh


    spected.


    “I have been looking for him for a long time, so why is he only making an appearance now?


    Furthermore, the trail started from the airport...” Dave wondered aloud.


    No sooner had he finished than their eyes met. The answer dawned upon them at the same time.


    Looking at Keh, Dave curled his lips into a mysterious yet mischievous smile. “J, I told you that you


    are good at attracting enemies. Even Anonymous has his sight locked on you!”


    When something urred to Keh, he asked Miguel, “Didn''t you say earlier that Anonymous has


    joined Darz?”


    Miguel nodded. “That''s what''s being spected within the hackermunity. There''s no official


    confirmation of it, though.”


    “But there can never be smoke without a fire,” Kehmented.


    “The rumor started when someone seemingly saw Anonymous being close to Kyle of Darz,” Miguel


    continued.


    Keh''s eyes narrowed as he listened on.


    Anonymous... Darz... Why do I keep having this niggling sense of dread? Also, Darz has


    be particrly active recently. Their headquarters isn''t even located here, so why have they


    All of a sudden, Keh had an epiphany.
