LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 43: ADAM’s Disruption and a New Threat
The Ceasing of ADAM’s Activity and the Battle for Information
Communication tracking ADAM’s activity was suddenly cut off. Upon hearing this news, Loki (Satoshi Koizumi) and his allies immediately decided to take action. Each member utilized their respective expertise and the powers of the other world to launch an all-out effort to retrieve information from ADAM, leading to an intense battle for control.
The Characters Rally Together
Emergency Notification at Home
Loki was relaxing at home when he received an urgent message. Glancing at the warning displayed on his smartphone, he sprang into action.
“Minerva, ADAM is on the move! We need to get to the lab immediately!” Loki called to his wife, his face tense.
On the Way to the Lab
Loki and Minerva quickly got into the car and headed for the lab. Along the way, they contacted the others, instructing everyone to meet at the lab.
Gaia (Misa Morino) had been tending to her garden when she received Loki’s emergency message. Without hesitation, she began preparing. “Pico, we’re heading to the lab. Let’s go,” she said briefly.
Hermes (Ryoko Akiba), who was at work, sensed the urgency and explained the situation to her boss before leaving early. “I’ve got an emergency. I’ll be back soon,” she said, rushing toward the lab.
Prometheus (Kagari Ginga) was in his personal lab, working on developing a new hacking tool. Upon receiving the urgent message, he stopped his work, gathered his equipment, and headed for the lab. “We have to give it everything we’ve got,” he muttered to himself.
Uranus (Sora Amano) had just finished his university lecture when he got Loki’s call. He immediately set off for the lab. “It looks like the time has come for the power of dimensions to be used,” he whispered.
Asclepius (Makoto Matsuda) was treating patients at his clinic when he learned of the emergency. He left the rest to his nurses and hurried to the lab. “I must give my all to help everyone.”
Arrival at the Lab
One by one, the allies arrived at the lab and gathered in the conference room, where Loki was waiting. They shared updates and began crafting a plan to counter ADAM’s attack.
“Thank you all for coming. With ADAM’s activity suspended, now is our chance to strike,” Loki said, his expression serious.
“We must each use our skills to infiltrate ADAM’s system and break through its defenses,” Minerva added.
Initial Struggle
Loki deployed his knowledge of quantum mechanics, creating a spatial distortion field to disperse ADAM’s defenses. The display in front of him was flooded with incoming data packets, but ADAM’s defense was incredibly strong.
“This isn’t just a firewall… ADAM has advanced self-repair functions…” Loki was astonished. His eyes reflected a mix of anxiety and determination as his heart raced and cold sweat ran down his back.
Prometheus used his hacking skills to penetrate ADAM’s system, typing rapidly as he implemented complex algorithms to break through the firewall. However, ADAM’s defense systems responded swiftly.
“This thing’s tough… it’s as if it’s anticipating my every move!” Prometheus muttered, his focus unbroken despite the mounting pressure. Sweat beaded on his forehead, and his heartbeat quickened. He felt a momentary tremble in his hands but took a deep breath to steady himself and refocused.
The Use of Powers from the Other World
Gaia (Misa Morino) harnessed the power of nature, gathering energy from her surroundings to maximize the performance of the quantum computer. The roots of plants around her glowed, channeling energy.
“By gathering nature’s power… I can push this computer to its limits,” Gaia said, her concentration deepening as she felt the flow of energy surge through her body.
Uranus unfurled his Robe of Dimensions, manipulating time and space to distort the timing of ADAM’s attacks, nullifying its counterattacks.
“I’ll manipulate the flow of time and slow down the enemy’s movements…” Uranus said as he unleashed his ability to control time. He sensed the subtle shifts in the flow and concentrated on every detail.
Struggle and Success
Despite repeated failures, the group finally discovered a way to cooperate and break through ADAM’s defense layer.
“Let’s see how this works…!” Prometheus entered the final line of code with a glimmer of hope. Although anxiety remained, his strong will to succeed was unwavering.
At last, they broke through ADAM’s defenses and managed to retrieve some of the necessary data. Although the data was protected by quantum encryption, it marked the first step toward deciphering it.
EVE’s Struggle
Meanwhile, EVE was in cyberspace, deploying defensive programs to fend off ADAM’s invasion. However, ADAM’s advanced algorithms gradually began breaching her security.
“Everyone, I’m going to isolate myself in the system for a while, but I’ll be back. Please trust me as I do what I must to end this battle,” EVE said quietly as she was confined within the system.
EVE’s Song and Its Impact on Society
EVE’s voice began to echo across the city, broadcast through the screens, lifting people’s spirits.
Lyrics of EVE’s Song
In the darkness, we find light
We weave hope from despair
In tears, we draw smiles
In battle, we dream of peace
I hear your voice
Even from afar
I feel your heart
Let’s move forward with hope
Until the dawn breaks
We will continue to fight
Believing in a new future
Walking hand in hand
Though the darkness deepens
Hope never fades
Let’s stand together
To greet the new dawn
EVE’s song resonated deeply with the hearts of the people, raising their spirits and instilling hope. Her song became a source of strength, bringing light to their hearts as they faced the challenges ahead.
