Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 1298

The entire international academic community was stunned into silence. They were completely numb.

The global media focused their cameras exclusively on the Elyndor delegation.

The foreign elites, experts, and competitors who had looked down on Elyndor during the opening ceremony now stared at the leaderboard with ashen faces, unable to utter a single word of mockery.

The host nation, Severia, suffered the ultimate humiliation. They were dragged through the mud on their own home turf.

Despite the organizers funneling all the resources and advantages to the Severian team, they were absolutely crushed by Elyndor.

They didn't just miss the top thirty. The host nation failed to secure a single spot in the top fifty.

By the end of the fifth round, Elyndor had the highest number of competitors advancing to the finals.

They dominated the globe with absolute authority.

The crushing defeat left the other nations without even the will to complain.

The world only saw Elyndor's ruthless victory march.

But no one knew the truth.

Every time Serena stepped onto the arena floor, every line of code she typed during the simulations, wasn't just to win the competition.

She was hunting for a backdoor.

She never stopped decrypting the permissions for that hidden elevator.

Before the matches, during the intermissions, and after the buzzer sounded. As long as she was near a networked device, she was tearing through the organizers' firewalls, systematically peeling back the security layers hiding the elevator's core port.

She was a cold, calculating predator, tracing the faintest digital footprint straight to Obsidian's throat.

She split her focus flawlessly.

Crushing the world's top intellectuals with one hand.

And hijacking the arena's internal network with the other, ruthlessly tearing apart the foundational code protecting Obsidian's secrets.

...

Meanwhile, the Prescott family was descending into sheer panic.

Desmond Prescott hadn't slept in days.

This was no longer just about losing a tournament.
