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."
