Chapter 243
After Athena, who was in seclusion doing scientific research, received the latest news from Jaden, she expressed her admiration for the way Jaden handled the scandal.
She used her hacking skills to dig out the private messages and personal information of the rumormonger and handed them to Jaden. Then, she stood up and stretched. “I’m so tired.”
After twisting on the spot a few times, she walked to the window and looked at the boundless sea outside.
The Institute of Physics was situated on an unassuming island, surrounded by cliffs on three sides, with a beach and a small parking area for aircraft on the fourth side.
The island was enveloped in lush greenery, Most parts of the large research institute lay underground, with only a small portion visible above ground, mostly hidden by foliage. It was nearly impossible to recognize it as a building.
What was even more remarkable was that the people and equipment in the research institute could see outside, while the humans and creatures beyond, including satellites and detectors, could not see anything within the institute. Even the lights couldn’t penetrate its confines.
Athena still had not figured out what the building’s external material was made of. Her master told her, “If you want to know, study it yourself.”
She felt it might take her a lifetime to understand it all. Her master possessed technology that was far ahead of its time.
“Miss Donovan, your tea and coffee.” A staff member walked over and handed her a cup of coffee.
“Thank you, Miss Einstein.” Athena took the coffee from her and took a sip.
Newton Einstein stood by and stared at her.
Athena narrowed her eyes slightly and revealed a satisfied expression. “The coffee you made is improving all the time. I love it.”
Newton’s eyes crinkled, and the sweetness of her voice rose by at least ten percentage points. “I’ll make your coffee next time
too.”
Athena nodded. “Alright, I’m honored.”
Newton went off with a spring in her step.
Athena looked at her back and sighed secretly. The bionic robot made by her mentor was awesome. Not only did they have the appearance of humans, but they could also complete all kinds of work and research independently. They also had a certain level of intelligence and unique personalities.
For example, Newton Einstein was very interesting. After reading numerous biographies of scientists, she decided to abandon the code name “XR-083” and adopted the name Newton Einstein, reasoning that “They are not only the greatest scientists but also the most renowned. I want the same name so I can be cool too.”
She was also extremely stubborn and cared a lot about things like “achievement” and “honor.”
For example, when she made coffee for Athena just now, she had to watch Athena drink it in person and only leave happily after receiving Athena’s high praise.
If Athena said the coffee wasn’t good, she’d dejectedly hide and practice over and over again until she was recognized.
The other bionic robots also had their own tempers, like children.

Chapter 243
Like the other researchers, Athena tried to figure out how these bionic robots were created, but with their current standards. they could not understand at all. In the end, they gave up and went to do their own experiments.
Her mentor’s matter was also Athena’s greatest secret.
To a certain extent, she was also her master’s work, just like those bionic robots.
However, these bionic robots were only at the level of a few-year-old child. While they could easily handle setup and programming tasks, they were incapable of conducting groundbreaking research. So the Institute of Physics still needed human scientists.
The research institute employed over 60 researchers and staff members. Half of them were bionic robots, while the other half comprised brilliant minds handpicked by Athena’s master from around the globe.
Most of these geniuses came from slums, orphanages, war-torn areas, or backgrounds of homelessness. They possessed remarkable talents, but their potential was often overshadowed by their circumstances. Athena’s master discovered them and nurtured their abilities, giving them the opportunity to shine.
Five years ago, her master passed on the Vission Group, the medical research lab, the comprehensive experimental base, the secret Institute of Physics, and more to her. As a result, Athena became the successor of these advanced technologies and immense wealth. Otherwise, at her age, even if she had started a business from birth, she wouldn’t have achieved what she has today.
Athena thought that someone as powerful as her master would be able to settle his private matters quickly and contact her. However, year after year, her master did not contact her. She tried her best to contact her master, but to no avail.
With her current level, she was actually not qualified to worry about her mentor, but she would still be worried.
At the thought of this, she could not help but send a message to Cora. “Is there any news of my mentor?”
Cora replied after a while, “No. However, we found that someone is also looking for your mentor.”
Athena frowned. “Do you know who is looking for my mentor?”
Only Athena knew the truth about her master’s background. If someone was searching for her mentor, it meant they might also be aware of that background, which could spell trouble for him…
Cora said, “Those individuals are highly professional and have significant funds and connections. We haven’t looked into them yet. Would you like us to investigate their backgrounds?”
Athena responded without hesitation, “Yes! But for now, don’t alert the enemy, even if it means giving up the clues right in front of you.”
Cora said, “Yes.”
After the call, Athena was a little depressed, so she called Matthew, thinking his voice would cheer her up.
She and Matthew called about once every two to three days.
She was doing experiments every day and basically had nothing to say. On the other hand, Matthew was like a movie blockbuster. His life was very exciting every day.
Fo as talking to Matthew, she often heard the sound of fighting over there.”Another fight?” she asked with concern.
“Yes, someone wants to kidnap us again,” Matthew said calmly. “To the local gangs, people from Osceiton are like easy prey. Everyone wants a piece of them. Here, reasoning doesn’t matter. The one with the strongest fist has the power.”
“Makes sense.” Athena cracked her knuckles. “When are you coming back?”

Matthew said. “I originally wanted to make Anabel get lost, but lidn’t expect her to be transferred to Uroterin so quickly. I should be able to go back before the summer vacation.
“What about you. Miss Donovan? When are you going back?”
Before the end of June,” Athena said seriously. “I have to go back and take the final exam.” Although she had mastered a lot of cutting-edge scientific knowledge, she was still a student. If she was absent from the exam or failed the exam, she would be criticized.
Matthew seemed to have thought of this and laughed softly. “Miss Donovan, you can do it. Try to get full marks for the final exam.”
Athena clenched her fists and raised her arm. “Of course!”
