Chapter 428
The conversation between April and Olivia from here on happened telepathically, which enabled Olivia to convey her thoughts without having them minced through her words. Olivia Hearts found out that Johnny Biggs, the CEO of Cortex Tech, is actually her mother's older brother.Apparently, the two of them grew up very poor, with an abusive father and a mother who got sick six days a week. Despite the hardships that they encountered at home on a daily basis, the two siblings got used to it. Johnny Biggs is half a decade older than Olivia's mother, so he had always taken it upon himself to keep his little sister safe from their abusive father. Due to their poor status, Johnny could only afford elementary school, but his IQ was so high that he was already solving mathematical formulas meant for high schoolers. Things got worse after they were evicted from their house, and they had to live in a homeless shelter.Despite not being able to further his education, Johnny began taking a part-

Less than an hour later, the female Whiteridge soldier pulled up at a high-end mega-mall that had all sorts of businesses in their various sections.Eight-Clover Chain is the name of this mega-mall. Worth hundreds of millions of dollars, it has various branches spread across the United States of America, including New Stone City. The shops here ranged from restaurants, movie theaters, to Salons, and Arcades.Olivia got out of the car, and the door opened by one of the Whiteridge soldiers who rode in the SUVs.“Eight-Clover Chain? What are we doing here, April?”She sounded like she was back to normal. A few minutes spent in the company of her best friend had helped a bit in raising her mood.April also walked out of the car, the door opened by the female Whiteridge soldier who drove Olivia's car.She rushed around the car to grab Olivia's arm, like the young woman would suddenly bolt and run away in her high heels.“We're here to unwind. Today marks the seventh month of knowing each

Johnny Biggs shook his head.“Apart from the serial name, she doesn't have one. But we usually leave that to the owners to decide on their….” April immediately came up with the name she found most suitable for her AI assistant.“Athena. Her name is Athena Scott.”Olivia raised an eyebrow at her best friend.“You're giving her your family's last name?”April nodded her head with eyes shining with glee. She was like a child naming her doll for the first time. Olivia could tell that the relationship April would foster with her AI assistant would eventually become a pain for her.Olivia pointed at April with a dead stare.“Don't you dare make me the third wheel in this relationship.”April chuckled before raising her pinkie.“Deal! Let's make an oath to it.”This is not the first time April has initiated a promise with a formal pinkie swear. At first, Olivia found it childish, but she had quickly come to accept April for who she is: a simple young woman who refuses to shed her naivety d

As everyone in the watchroom slowly got back up on their feet, looking down at the destroyed training room, they were shocked to find that the east wall now had a huge circular gash right through it. It should be noted that these walls are made of special steels mixed with concrete and other kinds of rare materials, all to make sure that these walls are practically impregnable. Yet, April had caused such a powerful degree of destruction, all with her psychic powers.Clearly, this woman can be easily ranked as a kind of existential threat, if she turned out to be one.April was still levitating in the air, an unnatural wind blowing, and her hair As she rose to the watchroom and floated into the broken window.Right beside her is none other than the fragile spherical object, looking as perfect as ever.Without taking off the blindfold, April smiled as she gently landed on her feet with a bright smile “So, did I pass?”There was utter silence for a couple of seconds before the female

The bald head of orange light shook itself laterally.“Give me a second, Sir.”A few seconds later, it replied.“Apologies, Sir. The primary hardware that grants me access to the energy supply route has been physically damaged by a recent burst of power in the area. Their energy supply to this area will need to be manually shut down.”Johnny Biggs didn't panic as he spoke to the AI assistant hovering over his clearly advanced wristwatch.“Call the tech staff in the area and pass my instructions to them, ASAP!”At this point, it was obvious that whatever needed to be done to put an end to this nightmare that had become a training simulation, it would take at least minutes. This amount of time, though, might not be something April could afford, as she was being endlessly bombarded from all sides by these needles being shot out with more than enough force to puncture tiny holes in the human body. With the endless streams, a human would definitely die if they suffer a moment of impact.A

The entire room was nicely filled with millions of needles, all aiming for April and the fragile spherical object levitating next to her.The forcefield was rapidly dissolving and the endless streams of needles were now surely about to impale themselves into April's flesh, and most definitely tear into the levitating object.But then, April's eyes shot open with immense fierceness, and with a loud grunt that seemed to echo in a vacuum of momentary silence, she rose back to her feet and spread out her hands once again, seemingly pushing back out on her surroundings.This sudden action sent a wave of spiralling, almost greyish light growing out of her and expanding to the entire room with a loud boom.The force of that spiralling light that burst out of April as she got back on her feet and made an outward pushing motion was so powerful that it actually reached the transparent glass window that led to the watch room on the other side where Olivia, the Coretex Tech CEO - Johnny Biggs, a
