The sun blazed over the desert like an unyielding eye, consuming everything in its path. The heat was so intense that waves of hot air distorted the landscape, making every shape appear like a trembling mirage. Gat, his shirt already askew, exposed a torso sculpted by hours of physical training. Veins bulged in his arms, taut as ropes under the scorching brilliance of the sun. "We’ve already defeated two units and captured them," he announced confidently, though his voice carried a tinge of exhaustion. "These guys aren’t a challenge."The girls didn’t even blink at his display of muscles, but the kids stared at him with childlike admiration. "Wow, you’re like those guys on TV who lift weights!" one of them exclaimed, pointing at him with excitement. Riota, always sharp-tongued, couldn’t resist: "Yeah, at least what you lack in brains, you make up for in brawn." Her words sparked laughter among the group, and Gat scowled, pretending to be offended. "Ha, ha, very funny," he shot back, t

They were attacked again, and Podbe began fighting to incapacitate the mind-controlled soldiers. "Who would’ve thought the boss had a higher-up," Reia remarked from within Podbe."Hey, Podbe, I hadn’t noticed before, but now you have an extra crescent moon below where your frown starts," Leila pointed out while using her powers to shield herself from the attacks. "Hey, little dog, does that thing on your head hurt?" Adia asked. "To me, it looks like they’re painted on his forehead," Drake commented as he fought, delivering punches and stunning enemies with his weapon faster than before."Hey, no fair! Leave some for me. I barely managed to handle two, and I only had 1,500 points. I need to get stronger to save Aiden," Podbe thought to himself, realizing he now needed to reach 2,000 points to advance to the next level."Well, we finished quicker than expected. The boss said we can’t kill people," Leila remarked as she used her telekinesis to bind the mind-controlled children and place

"Open the door and bring him to me," Eliot ordered his soldiers, who quickly obeyed."Because my robots say you’re someone special," began Eliot, the leader of Radar’s European division, as he observed the newcomer with curiosity. "And also because you abandoned your team to come to me. Who are you?""I am known as Agent I-5, but my name is Eliot Rodriguez," replied the intruder."Well, you’re named Eliot too. It’s a nice name. You’re starting to grow on me," interrupted the other Eliot with an ironic smile."But in reality, I’m not human," continued the newcomer, stepping closer to one of the robots in the room. "This body is human, but I am an artificial intelligence. My real name is Xen." With precise movements, Xen began manipulating the surrounding technology, projecting his face onto a nearby monitor. His digital eyes glowed with a mix of defiance and superiority as he stared down the villainous leader."So, an artificial intelligence, huh?" mused Eliot, raising a hand to stop h

In Europe, specifically in Russia, Eliot, the leader of Radar on that continent, watched with disinterest as his colleagues at the table faced off against their adversaries in various parts of the world."Wow, everyone’s having fun except me," he muttered, taking a sip of his energy drink from a glass. His tone was nonchalant, but there was a hint of arrogance in his voice. "Lucky or not, I would have liked to use the gift our lord Zeus gave me on them, not on mere humans." His eyes remained fixed on a screen showing one of his mind-controlled super soldiers finishing off a worker from Odentre, a rival company.Eliot continued drinking calmly as he witnessed the massacre carried out by his own controlled soldiers against the employees of the enemy corporation. Finally, he set his glass down on the table and rose elegantly."The future doesn’t wait, and neither do I," declared the young genius with a mocking smile. "This place has no style, not like our lord Zeus." Then, turning to his

Marie’s voice echoed in the earpieces, clear but laced with tension. "Sir, I found nothing in them. They seem clean.""Understood," replied the boss at the other end of the line. His tone was firm, but there was a hint of concern in his words. "Stay alert. For now, we can’t trust anyone.""Understood," she responded before cutting off the communication.Meanwhile, Podbe’s team advanced through the desolate landscape, accumulating a total of 2,000 experience points and reaching level 12. With two skill upgrade points pending, each member was ready to face whatever awaited them. However, the ship carrying Eduard’s team had also been shot down, crashing in the middle of the inhospitable Nevada desert. There, under a scorching sky and surrounded by golden dunes that seemed to stretch endlessly, they stood before Radar’s operations base, led by Aragon Barns.Aragón didn’t hesitate for a second before sending his super soldiers to test the intruders. Thanks to the telekinetic powers of Rach

Marie observed Dani and Gin as they waited anxiously in her office. Her mind was a whirlwind of questions: Were they the ones responsible for the information leak? Although they seemed to have changed since leaving Radar, Marie knew appearances could be deceiving. She decided to proceed cautiously. She couldn’t afford to raise suspicions too soon."Hello, guys," she said in a tone that was kind but firm, offering a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes. The two former Radar scientists, dressed in white lab coats from the agency, responded politely, though their gazes betrayed both curiosity and a hint of discomfort. "You’re here because I’m going to give you a surprise test," Marie announced."A test?" they asked in unison, exchanging confused glances."Yes, a test. It’s always given to new recruits a week after their initiation. Normally, the boss would handle it, but since he’s unavailable, it falls to me." Marie explained matter-of-factly, concealing her true intentions behind a p
