Chapter 1070
“Oh my, my p>
Lydia clicked her tongue, deliberately raising her voice to put on a show with Vanessa. “You know, people just shouldn’t plot against others. See? Instant karma p>
Vanessa nodded. “Exactly. Certain people tried to team up with the Chief Arbiter to screw over another team, trying to force them into living in a pigsty and assigning them a lab that didn’t even meet basic regulatory standards, hoping the awful environment would break their mental state. But look what happened… tsk, tsk, the boomerang spun right around and hit them dead in the chest, didn’t it p>
“Evil breeds evil, the old saying never lies,” Lydia said, her eyes curving in a deliberate, mocking laugh.
“Mhm.” Caleb glanced at Lydia, the corners of his lips twitching upward. “Karma always balances the scales p>
The back-and-forth sarcasm was relentless.
It drove Bianca absolutely insane.
She wanted nothing more than to charge over, grab Lydia and Vanessa, and slap them across the face.
But Isabella stopped her just in time.
They both knew perfectly well.
With Serena sitting right there.
They didn’t stand a chance of laying a finger on anyone from The Hope Initiative.
If Bianca actually charged over p>
The only ones losing face in the end would be themselves.
Bianca was shaking with fury, completely unable to swallow her anger. She could only clench her fists and spit out a furious threat. “Serena, you just wait p>
“Don’t think you can win like this p>
“Research requires a brain, not your cheap, dirty tricks p>
“Once we’re in the lab, I’ll make sure you lose spectacularly p>
“Oh?” Serena arched an eyebrow, looking at her with a half-smile. “I’ll return those exact words right back to you p>
“You!” Bianca was beside herself with rage. She spun on her heel and stormed off.
She was terrified that if she stayed a second longer, she would completely lose control of her emotions.
And end up humiliating herself again.
Seeing Bianca storm out, the rest of The Dreamscape Initiative practically inhaled a few bites of their breakfast.
Then they hurriedly chased after her.
Isabella hadn’t even managed a single bite. She bit her lower lip, glaring at Serena for a long moment.
Five days.
There were five days left.
She refused to believe Serena could stay this smug forever!
She turned and hurried after Bianca.
Watching their pathetic retreat.

Caleb pushed his glasses up and smiled. “That’s what you call a psychological attack; it’s always the most lethal p>
This was precisely the tactic the Doyle family and Chief Graves had originally planned to use.
Only now p>
The attack had rebounded entirely onto The Dreamscape Initiative.

Their fighting spirit was at an all-time high. “Yes, Captain p>
Across the entire island, the signal jammers had been upgraded to maximum capacity.
Cutting off all contact with the outside world.
Serena led her team and swiped her keycard to access their Apex Research Hub.
The humming of heavy machinery booting up echoed through the room.
The group changed into their lab coats and pulled on their safety goggles.
In that instant.
Serena’s lazy, nonchalant aura vanished completely.
With a calm, unflappable tone, she began issuing orders.
