<h4>Chapter 310 Chapter 310: How Could We Lose?</h4>


    "Such bad luck, it was already a gloomy day, and first thing in the morning upon arriving at thepany, we have to see the manager''s sour face."


    "Exactly, calling me at two or three in the morning to discuss the project, and now summoning us for a morning meeting at 5:30, are they sick?"


    "s, dare you not do it? With thepanyying off people so severely, believe it or not, the manager will tell you to get lost the next day."


    "Every additional day in this job feels like it shortens one''s life!"


    "Stopining, many people wish they had the chance to shorten their life like this. Thepany isn''t doing well in profits, let''s just endure it."


    "Pfft! Not doing well in profits? When profits were good, I didn''t see them giving us much benefits either. Didn''t it all go into the pockets of those higher up who do nothing all day but boss us around?"


    "That''s the reality, what can we do? Hope for a missile to suddenlye and blow all the higher ups away?"


    Just as this Kael Technology employee finished speaking with a yawn, a streak of crimson light appeared in the dim morning sky above the Kael Building.


    Initially, the red light was just a small dot, but in the blink of an eye, it turned into a zing fireball in the eyes of the employees below the building, and then


    Boom—


    Thunderous!!


    The fireball directly hit the top of the Kael Building, the huge explosion sounding like the loudest rm clock for Dream City.


    The roaring mes illuminated the morning, and now the Kael Building looked like a burning torch, with thick ck smoke rising continuously from the upper floors of the building.


    "What the—!?"


    The employee who just spoke opened his mouth wide, and several colleagues who came to thepany for the morning meeting were also stunned, standing still with their necks craned.


    Their first reaction was, has the emperor finally opened his eyes, fulfilling their wishes?


    ''No!''


    They quickly shook their heads, now was not the time to think about that!


    Realizing this, several Kael Technology employees hurriedly took out their phones from their pockets, snapped photos of the burning top of the building, and quickly posted them to their Dream Circles.


    "Beep! Beep! Beep!!"


    The piercing rm sound echoed in Renji''s ears, and all the disys on the floor, including the liquid crystal ss, automatically turned into a conspicuous red.


    The ceiling''s fire sprinklers, detecting the source of the fire, activated automatically. At the same time, Renji looked towards the end of the corridor, where electronic gates were automatically closing in emergency,pletely sealing off the floor space to effectively prevent the spread of the fire.


    As a securitypany, their response to emergencies was indeedmendable.


    The hundred-story Kael Building, where floors 1-20 are mostly upied by the majority of regr employees, floors 20-40 are mostlyboratories and researchers, and floors 40-60 are essible only to senior employees like Chief William.


    As for the floors above, Renji''s employee manual didn''t specify, but it''s certain that they are mostly unupied areas.


    Especially after the eightieth floor, walking in the corridor, Renji observed his surroundings, not seeing offices but mostlyrge server rooms used to store thepany''s important documents and secret data.


    Plus, given the early morning timing, Renji didn''t have to worry about injuring innocents.


    The serial killer had already prepared a route guide for Renji, with the servant machine data being Kael Technology''s top secret, located on the ny-fifth floor.


    Originally, to get here, one would have to pass through multiple verifications from the building''s ground floor. Even directors need severalyers of infrared scanning and eyeball recognition before they can briefly stay.


    After Renji chose to directly barge in from above, he now directly arrived at the periphery of the ny-fifth floor, just a fewpartments away from the central data server room.


    Convenient as it was, the consequence was...


    [Warning! Unauthorized entry detected!], [Warning! Lethal weapon detected!], [Restriction protocol lifted, area lockdownplete, initiating XG-3 guard machinery.]


    In less than fifteen seconds, Renji saw several red dots appear in front of him. The usual trash can-like cleaning robots now opened their arms from both sides, with the barrels of machine guns aiming at Renji.


    Simultaneously, the ceiling above Renji also opened, and guard drones resembling flying spiders targeted Renji with theirser-


    guided miniature infrared sights.


    [Warning! Please disarm immediately! Warning! Please disarm immediately! Otherwise...]


    Before the synthesized electronic warning could finish, a figure beside Renji, the serial killer, had already transformed her hands into alloy des and charged forward.


    Even if the corridor''s terrain was against them, the serial killer, relying on her agility, managed to wreak havoc. With her astonishing jumping ability, she leaped up to slice two drones flying above her head, causing them to explode and fall to the ground.


    Attacked by the serial killer, the guard machinery stopped issuing warnings and opened fire in retaliation. The barrage of gunfire in the corridor was incredibly dense, leaving almost no room to dodge. Yet, the serial killer, as if performing stunts in a movie, executed a mid-air backflip to dodge the first volley. She then tilted her body,nding on the wall. Using the walls on both sides, she began to leap back and forth, and the Kael Technology guard machinery''s gunfire couldn''t keep up with the serial killer''s movements.


    Once she got close, the narrow corridor became an advantage for the serial killer. Her feet, too, had turned into sharp des at some point, and all her limbs had be des, wreaking havoc among the drones and guard machinery, truly living up to her nickname as a cold and merciless killing machine.


    Seeing the serial killer perform in such a manner, 86 beside Renji became somewhat restless.


    For the current battle, the serial killer alone could handle it, so 86 initiated hacking mode, extending a palm towards the surveince equipment in the ceiling corner aiming its lens at them.


    86 swiped her finger as if operating through thin air, initiating the hacking process. After exchanging information with Control Number One and the serial killer, among other sisters, 86''s hacking abilities were greatly enhanced. Theplex firewalls of Kael Technology, which used to be formidable, now seemed like toys in front of 86.


    In less than three seconds, with a "bang," the surveince camera sparked and burst,pletely disabled and out of order.


    As the surveince was disabled, angry curses were heard from elsewhere simultaneously.


    As soon as Renji crashed into the Kael Building, numerous emergency emails were automatically sent to thepany''s executives by the security program. However, these emails were actually superfluous.


    Renji was mistaken; the top floors of the Kael Building are not uninhabited. Many of the board''s senior leaders have their own residential rooms here. After all, this building is a symboldmark of the Dream City, representing the pinnacle of the city.


    Those who have rooms here asionally stay to enjoy the feeling of having the entire city beneath their feet, a privilege the directors naturally wouldn''t pass up.


    Since there was a board meeting yesterday, many directors were actually staying on the nieth floors and above. Most of them were awakened by the explosion caused by Renji crashing into the building with his mecha armor, resembling a missile.


    So now, many directors gathered in the surveince room, still in their pajamas, having rushed out in a panic without even changing clothes after being startled awake.


    At first, they thought it was a terrorist attack or that the building was copsing. But after seeing that the explosion, though loud, only created a hole a few meters wide, they all breathed a sigh of relief.


    Renji had used a few meters tall exosuit form, not the gigantic mech of the Bright Leftover Woman, since his goal was merely to retrieve data, not to destroy the building.


    "What are those drones and turrets even for! Why didn''t they stop him from the sky!"


    "All the funds we''ve poured into our defense projects might as well have been fed to dogs!"


    "No, look at the footage, I''ve already slowed it down to ten times slower, but all we see is a red meteor. Such speed exceeds our interception capabilities!"


    "It''s impossible! Current single-pilot mechs can''t possibly ascend that high, let alone reach supersonic speeds in the air, impossible!"


    "Wait, look closely at the footage again!"


    A researcher slowed down Renji''s figure by dozens of times, and a vague shadow could be seen, a ball of crimson light with what seemed like two mechanical wings, resembling angry dragon wings, on its back.


    "Could it be, is it... the Evil Dragon Mech!?"


    After a researcher stuttered out this suggestion, many directors in the safe room changed color, with several turning noticeably paler, their eyes filled with fear.
