“Take your positions. Raven got away last time, but we must catch him this time,” Leo commanded.
With that, all 12 members swiftly got into position.
An intense showdown that was one versus 12 commenced.
Hera’s eyes quickly scanned over the stacked windows on the screen where codes flickered rapidly like an emotionless robot. At the same time, her fingers rapidly tapped away on the keyboard.
As time passed, the 12 people in the control office began to sweat nervously.
“This speed is unbelievable! Is he really alone over there?” Aries quipped.
The sound of everyone’s voices filled the air.
“My Blue Screen Virus was prated in seconds. Is Raven really human?”
“Crap. We’re losing control!”
“Damn it. How careless! He actually used a virus! We’ve been hit!”
One of their screens suddenly displayed a large red error alert, and the next second, it went blue.
“Aquarius, how did your Blue Screen Special Attack end up on my computer?” Gemini looked up and asked.
Aquarius’ screen had also gone blue. She slammed her mouse down hard. “No! Not only was my special attack instantly broken, but the other party also learned it!”
Just as she finished her words, the remaining ten computer screens turned blue and froze one by one, with only the large screen on the wall still functioning.
A message then appeared on it: “This Blue Screen Virus is pretty handy.”
Aquarius was so enraged she nearly fainted. Her ultimate skill, which she had perfected over ten years, was one of the best in the hacking world. Not only was it instantly broken but also instantly learned. She felt utterly embarrassed.
The other members were stunned too. Just as they saw the firewall was about to be breached by Raven again, it was suddenly intercepted. “The grandmaster is here!” Aries said excitedly.
At the café, Hera implanted a virus into 12 computers at once, causing the enemy team to be completely wiped out. Just as she was about to continge attacking Astral Nova’s firewall, a dialogue box suddenly popped up on the screen.
Recognizing the familiar data, she smirked. The grandmaster of Astral Nova had finally appeared.
He had been hiding behind the screen all along, giving her no chance to approach. She had no choice but to use this method.
In the next second, codes flashed rapidly across her screen, and the windows appeared to overlap as if her laptop was freezing. Having learned from last time, Hera’s defense was noticeably stronger this time.
She was adept at learning and applying new skills immediately. After confronting the 12 zodiac signs, she turned their ultimate attacks against them. However, being the grandmaster of Astral Nova, Bernard possessed skills far superior to the 12 zodiac signs. He was able to counter Hera’s attacks instantly.
…
In the control office, everyone
gathered in front of the large screen to watch this epic battle. The lines of coding raced across the screen. It was so rapid that a blink of an eye would miss crucial data.
“What a display of skill. Just watching it strains my eyes. How are they doing it?”
“Damn, I think I just saw my ultimate attack.”
“Me too!”
“Me too!”
“Why do I feel like our ultimate attacks have all been copy-pasted by the other side?”
“Is Raven even human? Are we really not dealing with a machine?”
“I suddenly feel resigned. With this level of skill, it’s no wonder we got wiped out.”
The two engaged in countless exchanges over tens of thousands of rounds. As time went on, what started as an even match began to show disparities.
Hera realized she wasn’t cut out for a prolonged struggle against here opponent. She cleverly exposed a vulnerability to him while gaining access to an icon from the other side.
