Angel was in a dilemma.
He had to admit that he had done a great job in the last mission. Out of the five Mavericks, he was the only one to complete the mission. The other four had failed at the last door. Angel felt a sense of pride as he thought of the brilliant trap he had set. A faint smile formed on his lips.
The mission was a little difficult, but Angel was attracted by the high reward. Such a high reward, and the Luo family had done business with him a few times, so they were trustworthy. Most importantly, this mission was perfect for him.
The person the Luo family wanted to find out about, and the reward was so high that Angel thought it was most likely some big shot, or an advanced mech pilot that the Luo family wanted to rope into their side. Angel had thought of many possibilities, but the results were far from what he had expected.
There was no trace of this person called YC in the message box. If he had not copied some of the other people's information, the Luo family would not have believed that he had been in there!
Angel was a little worried when he realized that there was no information on YC.
Could he be a Maverick too?
This thought had been bothering him ever since Angel could not find any information on YC.
Although Mavericks were no different from normal people in the real world, once they entered the virtual world, they became a different species in people's eyes. The rules of the virtual world could not restrict their existence. In the virtual world, they had great power, and in the eyes of normal people, they could do whatever they wanted.
But was that really the case?
Angel could not help but smile bitterly at the thought. There were many unwritten rules in the world of Mavericks, and these unwritten rules were a huge constraint to most Mavericks. For a Maverick like Angel, who did not belong to any faction and believed in freedom and neutrality, he was even more restricted.
Being related to other Mavericks was one of the taboos he believed in.
There was no absolute difference in strength between Mavericks. Everyone had chosen a different field of expertise, so there was no comparison. Even in the same field, a beginner's unique algorithm could cause a fatal injury to a veteran Maverick. After all, creativity was too mysterious.
Angel did not want to test the waters between Mavericks. Nowadays, the virtual world used electromagnetic waves to stimulate the nerves in the brain, so that the brain waves would be the same as those in the virtual world. Although it was difficult to hack into the connected devices, it was not absolutely safe.
Angel had once witnessed a battle between two powerful Mavericks, and one of them had suffered a complete brain necrosis. This was the first time he had experienced the power of a Maverick in the virtual world, and the unforgettable cruelty.
Fortunately, the Mavericks who could break through the last line of defense were few and far between, and they were the cream of the crop among the Mavericks. On the other hand, most of these people respected their status and would not commit any atrocities. They also kept each other in check, and the restrictions they faced were even more stringent than the average Mavericks. This was the only reason the virtual world was not in chaos.
Do not provoke any Maverick, even if he is weaker than you.
Being able to move around freely in the training grounds and using all the facilities without any registration, this did not look like a weak Maverick at all. If he was a Maverick.
Angel could not help but shudder at the thought that her actions might have angered the enemy, a Maverick who could very well be a high level boss.
But the problem did not seem to be over.
The Luo family came to him with another commission – to find out the real information of this YC. Regardless of the information, address, name, etc. This commission was also in line with the Luo family's style of not being afraid of spending money, and the reward was astronomical.
The Luo family came to Angel of their own accord and presented him with this commission. Angel had never failed before, and the Luo family hoped to get his help.
In many ways, the angels should not have rejected this contract. The Luo family was his biggest client, and they were close. This commission was just as suitable for him as the last one, and the reward was the highest he had ever received.
But Angel was still hesitant.
What if the other party was really a super Maverick?
Angel knew his place. He was like the mole. When it came to tracking and trapping, he was considered top-notch. But when it came to direct confrontation, that was not his forte. If the other party was a Maverick, then Angel had to consider the other party's revenge.
If he had only angered the other party last time, then this commission was definitely a huge taboo. The thing that Mavericks feared the most was having their true identity exposed. This was the thing that all Mavericks feared the most. In the real world, Mavericks were no different from ordinary people. They did not have the ability to protect themselves. If their identity was exposed, then their freedom, and even their life, could very well be gone.
Angel did not dare to accept this commission easily. His mind was still clear, and he was not blinded by the high reward offered by the Luo family. He understood that if he accepted this commission, he would have to face the wrath of a super Maverick. He might even be besieged by other Mavericks. After all, what he was about to do was the biggest taboo in this line of work!
But Angel was still hesitating. The exorbitant reward on the commission was extremely tempting, and it constantly tickled Angel's heart. With this deal, he would not have to worry about food and clothing for the next ten years. Angel was seventy percent sure that the other party would not be able to find out what he was doing. The "bone maggot" had never let him down.
This commission was a headache. Angel rubbed his temples in pain. If he rejected it, he could not bear to look at the exorbitant reward. If he accepted it, Angel's heart was pounding. He was afraid that he would not have the life to spend the money. He did not dare to do so!
Angel had an idea. Why not meet this YC first, and judge his opponent's strength before making a decision?
Based on the information provided by the Luo family, Angel came to the NR Training Base as a visitor.
Soon, he found his target – YC.
YC seemed to have just finished a match, and was walking out in his mech. Angel involuntarily took a few steps forward, trying to figure out who this YC guy was.
People came and went, and YC did not stand out in the crowd.
Suddenly, Angel's sharp eyes narrowed, and his heart skipped a beat!
Mavericks!
The few people who brushed past YC! They were Mavericks! Angel's mind raced. It must be the other Mavericks who accepted this commission! Based on the Luo family's habits, they wouldn't just look for one family for some of the more difficult tasks! Angel was sure that they were Mavericks based on the aura they exuded!
Must they be trying to do something here?
Angel decided to wait and see. Just as well, let them test out who this YC was!
Angel focused his mind, and in silence, the "ripples" spread out. Every detail of his surroundings was reflected clearly in his mind.
Good! They were indeed experts. Their timing was perfect, and their movements were well hidden! Angel could not help but admire them! These Mavericks were indeed experts, and their teamwork was flawless, as if they were made in heaven. It was a sight to behold!
But what happened next almost made Angel's blood stop flowing. That moment would become a nightmare that he would never be able to shake off for the rest of his life!
