Chapter 1315
Ear-piercing alarms suddenly shattered the silence.
The previously stable computer monitors were instantly engulfed in a sea of blood- red pixels.
A frantic swarm of warning pop-ups flooded the screen.
[WARNING! ILLEGAL INTRUSION HAS TRIGGERED MAXIMUM-LEVEL COUNTERMEASURES p>
[INITIATING REVERSE-TRACKING PROTOCOL p>
[TARGET IS CURRENTLY REVERSE-TRACKING p>
A massive countdown timer slammed into the center of the display.
T-minus: Ten seconds.
The cocky smirk on Jasper’s face froze entirely.
“Fuck p>
His eyes, which had been dancing with triumph moments ago, widened in shock as
his fingers flew across the keyboard in a blur, frantically trying to intercept the
enemy’s reverse-tracking program.
But the opposition was clearly prepared.
The hostile firewall surged back with predatory aggression.
The entire system flashed a manic red, the blaring sirens escalating into a frantic tempo.
T-minus: Seven seconds.
Dread curled tightly in Jasper’s gut.
Panic set in.
He was supposed to be The Obsidian Dark Web’s most formidable bounty hunter and a world-class hacker.
He had just boasted to Serena about exacting her revenge, promising her absolute justice.
And now, before he could even finish showing off, he was about to get spectacularly exposed in front of her?
Exposing his alias as The Abyss’s Top-Ranked Hunter was a minor inconvenience at best.
But if this blunder dragged Serena into the crosshairs p>
He would never forgive himself.
“Dammit, those bastards p>
Jasper gritted his teeth, his spine rigid as his fingers flew across the keys faster than the eye could track.
Yet the harder he fought the interception, the more blinding the crimson light became.
The countdown ticked down to its final three seconds.
A slender, pale hand landed firmly on Jasper’s shoulder.
“Move p>
The command was delivered with an icy, effortless drawl.
Before Jasper could even process the words, he and his chair were effortlessly shoved aside with a single hand.
He looked up at the girl now standing before the monitors.
Serena didn’t bother sitting down.
She simply leaned against the desk with one hand, letting her other hover casually over the keyboard.
Her posture was the very definition of nonchalant grace.
Her cold, clear eyes swept apathetically over the frantic sea of flashing red warnings.
The harsh monitor light illuminated her breathtaking profile, casting a striking shadow that somehow radiated an absolutely suffocating, predatory aura, despite her Tazy stance.

She raised her hand, resting her delicate fingers against the keys.
There was no flashy blur of motion, unlike Jasper’s frantic typing.
She just tapped away with casual, rhythmic precision.
Within a heartbeat, a few lines of elegant code completely overwrote the system’s failing firewall.
Jasper had shot to his feet, desperate to stop her.
A tracking protocol of this magnitude was lethal-what if she got hurt messing with
it?
But the moment he registered the complex strings of code she
executing, he froze as det
This technique p>
This routing path p>
This was entirely beyond the realm of any ordinary hacker!
Three seconds.
That was all it took.
*Click p>
Serena’s fingertip lightly tapped the Enter key one final time.
The deafening red-alert sirens abruptly died.
The blinding crimson sea vanished from the monitors, instantly replaced by a cool, stable blue glow.
The countdown froze on its final second before shattering into countless digital particles.
A brilliantly clear and hyper-precise set of coordinates materialized right in the center of the screen.
Meanwhile, in the bottom right corner, a blood-red skull icon slowly faded into view.
The skull looked as though it were
drenched in fresh blood, its hollow eye sockets glowing with
eere
sinister light.
Jasper’s breath hitched in his throat.
He knew exactly what that was.
That was no ordinary Trojan horse.
That was a catastrophic virus, injected directly into the heart of the enemy’s
mainframe!
