Chapter 1258

Although the executives didn’t fully understand, they knew this was far beyond the scope of dirty tricks at an international competition.

Jerrick continued his report. “Furthermore, since the Elyndor delegation arrived in Severia, their strong public performance and high-profile counterattacks have drawn the vast majority of Severia’s security and media resources toward the competition itself p>

“This has created perfect conditions for The Dragon-Thorn Squad to infiltrate the tech center’s perimeter and its underground levels p>

“Currently, we have successfully intercepted live samples of the perimeter Mutated Augments. Everything is proceeding very smoothly p>

Hearing this, the executives in the room were so shocked they couldn’t speak.

It was only then that they belatedly realized there was a reason the Elyndor delegation was enduring all this public hostility.

Ambassador Sterling had suppressed the reports and chosen not to intervene immediately when the Elyndor team was targeted.

It was all for p>

The Dragon-Thorn Squad’s investigation?

Consul Bennett swallowed hard and looked at Ambassador Sterling. “Ambassador, what do you mean by Mutated Augments? What is The Dragon-Thorn Squad investigating? And what does this have to do with the Elyndor delegation p>

Ambassador Sterling looked at the screen and finally spoke slowly. “Thirty years ago, an incredibly arrogant organization emerged on the global stage p>

“That organization attempted to steal Elyndor’s neurological research. Thirty years ago, they dealt a massive blow to Elyndor’s scientific community. It took Elyndor over a decade to eradicate the Obsidian Sun, and they went quiet for a long time.” “But recently, this organization… has started popping up internationally again p>

The executives naturally knew which organization Ambassador Sterling was talking about.

That war thirty years ago, which had devastated Elyndor’s scientific research, had been a massive ordeal.

They had thought p>

That the organization had vanished without a trace.

They never expected p>

Thinking back to the Mutated Augments mentioned by the captain of The Dragon- Thorn Squad, everyone’s expression grew solemn.

“Has the Obsidian Sun never given up on their neurological research?” Consul Bennett’s pupils shrank as realization hit him. “Are these

so-called Mutated Augments net

the

byproduct of the Obsidian Sun’s neurological experiments p>

Ambassador Sterling’s gaze darkened further as he switched the content on the screen again. “A while ago, the Federal Defense Command received a piece of classified, anonymous intelligence p>

A series of organized photos, bank statements, chemical data, and experiment footage appeared on the screen.

One of the photos was an aerial shot of a private island.

The marking on the island was striking-it belonged to the Obsidian Sun.

The executives stared at the data and photos, their faces turning grim. “This… this is p>

Ambassador Sterling said, “The Obsidian Sun has been conducting illegal human experiments on this private island for a long time p>

“Furthermore, their organization has fully infiltrated numerous wealthy and powerful families across various nations, engaging in illicit trades with them p>

“Especially this report.” Ambassador Sterling pulled up another

document. “Evidence shows that the Obsidian Sun has been using neurological research to create Mutated Augments while amassing insane amounts of wealth in the shadows. Many top-tier billionaires and elites across various countries have become beneficiaries of their operations p>

“Among them are even royal figures from certain nations p>

Ambassador Sterling tapped the table. “The reason the finals of the Global Elite College Challenge were ultimately held in Severia was because Severia was far too enthusiastic about hosting this

academic event. is.g

cevent. This allowed us t follow the trail and discover that the Obsidian Sun has been highly active in Severia recently p>
