Chapter 342


    "Stork is the leader of Earthworm, so naturally, he''d be more cautious and cunning than most. Have


    Shane keep an eye on him at all times; we cannot afford even the tiniest oversight," Kingsley ordered.


    "I''ll be heading back to Cleapolis tonight after I tie up the loose ends here in Diosna City. We''ll talk


    about this in depth when I see you tomorrow."


    Upon hearing that Kingsley was going back to Cleapolis, Lancer quickly said, "Boss, there''s something


    else you should know about—the Anonymous appears to be right here in Diosna City."


    "What?" Kingsley''s eyes lit up when he heard this.


    While the world was currently in the midst of a decade-long peace, the strife under this thin veneer of


    harmony was still raging on. Therge number of spies being sent into Qustia by other countries near


    the border was proof of this. It was only a matter of time before an information, intelligence, and


    technology war broke out. There would be no firearms and no cannon fodder, only cyber attacks that


    could cripple a government from within.


    Take the web manager for example. If Qustia had technology that rivaled Sweoya, then there would be


    no need for them to rely on the Anonymous, whose loyalty had yet to be verified, to gather intelligence.


    On the flip side, if the military could uncover the Anonymous'' identity and recruit them as a military


    organization, then the army''s technological advancement could very well reach new heights. The


    military of Qustia could take the lead in this espionage war if that came to pass.


    But even if the Anonymous'' debut hadunched them into the league of the top five hacker


    organizations in the world, not to mention, being the first hacker organization the military of Qustia had


    paid attention to recently, there was still the issue of their elusiveness.


    No one knew anything about the head of the organization, its members and its location. As such, even


    if the military wanted to pull some strings or rub elbows with them, it would still be quite a challenge.


    Consequently, the military had to beg for the Anonymous to gather intel with the promise of a ludicrous


    reward.


    This was why Kingsley had been excited to hear that the renowned hacker group was here in Diosna


    City. If he could just track the Anonymous down and find out who was behind the organization, then


    perhaps he could make them part of the technology department in Coliree Ind.


    From there, he could sharpen the Anonymous'' cyber prowess like a sword and use them to stab


    through their enemy''s heart!

    "Send me whatever information you have on the Anonymous," Kingsley said to Lancer. "They''re vital to


    our espionage, and I have to personally meet with the head of the organization."


    "Coliree is all I have at the moment," Lancer admitted ruefully. "I only learned of their location because


    they slipped up during the coboration and told me they were at Sris University in Diosna City."


    Kingsley frowned at this. "Sris University? Is the head of the Anonymous a professor there or


    something?"


    "Maybe," Lancer said. "The Sris University of Computer Science, which was what the university was


    originally known as, is alma mater to the CEO of thergest software producer in the country. There


    could be a powerful hacker hiding among the faculty."


    "Got it. I''ll drop by the university and check things out for myself," Kingsley said. Then, he saw Serena


    peering in his direction and added over the phone, "I have a couple of things to take care of here. We''ll


    talk about this when we meet in Cleapolis. As for Stork, make sure you keep a close eye on him and


    call me if anything goes wrong."


    With that, he hung up and returned to Serena''s side. "Serena, I need to stay here for a while, so you''ll


    have to go back to Cleapolis alone."


    "Did something happen, Kingsley?" Serena asked worriedly. "Should I stay here with you just in case


    you need help?"


    "No, I''ll be fine," he said with a shake of his head. "I''m just meeting a few friends whom I''ve known for


    ages. It''s a reunion, so there''s nothing to worry about." He grinned as he added, "Besides, you still


    have to go back and deal with Tyler. I bet that guy''s been tortured to the brink of death."


    She nodded, then smiled as she said, "You''re right. I''ve been away for more than a month now, and I


    should probably return to thepany to see how everything''s going."
