Ch. 571..575: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 571-575

Chapter 571

The Turmann family was powerful because of the mastery of the most powerful robotic technology, almost to the point of making Mecrounia the most powerful nation on earth.

Their influence spread over the world, just because they possessed a top-notch core technology in robotic weapons manufacturing.

Technology had developed to a level that robots had gradually become the most powerful combat weapon.

No country could fight a robotic weapon-equipped force.

But because of the difficulty of manufacturing and the rarity of the material, robots were rare.

But one robot had the combat strength of a thousand troops.

That was why the Turmann family could almost do whatever they wanted in Mecrounia.

Some time ago, however, when Mecrounia requisitioned the Turmann family's robots, she suffered an almost fatal defeat on the battlefield.

The enemy had used the same robotic weapons, even twice as many, and almost instantaneously shattered and destroyed the Turmann family's robots.

Mecrounia lost badly in that battle.

After that, the government of Mecrounia demanded an explanation from the Turmann family.

People from the Turmann family were among the best robotic talents.

From the footage they retrieved from the battlefield, they were almost sure that the enemy had used the same robotic weapon as the one they made.

There was only one explanation: the enemy had stolen their robotic design drawings, mass-produced the robotic weapon, and used it against them.

Everyone's face looked grave at the thought of this.

Faced with the leak of the family's core secrets and the claim of compensation from the Mecrounian government, the entire Turmann family was facing an unprecedented crisis.

The biggest problem was that they did not know who had stolen their trade secrets.

Each robot produced by the Turmann family bore the family crest with a conspicuous ouroboros logo, while the enemy's robots had none of these on them.

Simon was the first to speak.He looked emotionally at Elijah across from him.

"Now that things have come to such a pass, are you still not willing to reveal the Dodge Tomahawk in its physical form?"

There were only two Dodge Tomahawks in the world and both were made by the Turmann family.It was much more powerful than people could imagine.

But no one else except Elijah had seen the Dodge Tomahawks—not even Simon and two other brothers.

The Dodge Tomahawk was said to be equipped with the most advanced robotic system in the world, and unlike the robotic weapons that the Turmann family usually produced, the Dodge Tomahawk represented the most advanced combat strength.

Unlike outsiders, they knew very well that the Dodge Tomahawk was not just a motorcycle but also what it really meant.

But as much as they knew, it was still useless, as these people from the Turmann family had never seen it once.So upon hearing Simon's question, not only Eber and Merry, but even those indirect descendants were eager to see it.

Elijah's expression remained unchanged.He squinted at them without saying anything.

Simon was not expecting anything.

He quickly looked at Elijah and said covetingly, "If we can't see the Dodge Tomahawk, can you give us a drawing of it so we can study it?"

Then, he seemed to realize that he had revealed too much of his intention and tried to cover it up.

"Half of it.Err...maybe not.How about a quarter of it?" he said.

Elijah raised his eyes, glanced at Simon insouciantly, and said in a tone of voice that revealed none of his emotion.

"It's not time yet."

It was not just Simon, but even Merry was looking at Elijah with bafflement.She also became impatient.

"When will it be time? The faster we got a hand on the drawing to study it, the earlier we could gain an advantage in the conflict."

 

Chapter 572

Elijah looked at his sister, still expressionless.He then looked at the others, who had different expressions.

"You can't.Not only you, but we all can't do it."

‘What?! This time, even Eber was a little surprised.

‘Merry is a well-known robotic expert in the family.Yet Elijah said not even she was qualified to study the drawing.What is he thinking, or who is he waiting for? Since the start of the crisis, Elijah has been under tremendous pressure, but he still seems to be confident"Thinking of this, there was a thoughtful look in his eyes.

'I'm stodgy, but not stupid.None of us in the Turmann family is stupid.If I can think of it, anyone who can sit at this table can."

Hearing her eldest brother's dismissal of her ability, Merry was surprisingly calm and looked at Elijah with a faint disdain in her eyes.

"Don't wait for your hopeless son anymore, Elijah.If even I can't understand the drawing, then no one else would.Just take out the drawings, would you?"

At this point, a shallow sense of self-satisfaction appeared in her eyes.

To her surprise, though, Elijah smiled, shooting a puzzling glance at her, and asked, "Who told you I was waiting for someone in the family?"

This time, Merry could not find a word to respond.

Everyone looked at Elijah in shock, suspecting that this leader of theirs was not Elijah himself.

The Turmann family was a well-known robotic specialist.If the family members could not understand the drawing of the Dodge Tomahawk, then absolutely no outsiders could.

Merry almost cried out, "Absolutely not! Elijah, stop kidding us!"

She stood up and looked almost angrily at Elijah across from her, feeling humiliated.

Both Eber and Simon also frowned; they both agreed with what Merry said.

If outsiders could understand the drawings and they could not, this would be the biggest shame of the Turmann family.

Just when they opened their mouths and wanted to say something, the door suddenly opened.

Everyone looked back.So did Merry, who was annoyed and knew without thinking that it must be her errant nephew.She was only twenty-five, the youngest among her siblings.

Supposedly, she should be able to get along well with her nephew.

But the opposite was true; the two of them were like oil and water.She had, on multiple times, thought of getting rid of her annoying nephew.

But as Merry was thinking about this, she keenly saw Elijah, who was sitting in the head seat, finally open his half-closed eyes, and a light almost burst out of his dark green pupils.

She then heard him whisper, "It's finally here."

‘Who? Who can make my stone- faced elder brother show such an expression?! Merry turned her head back completely with this question in mind.Then she saw a slender figure walking alongside Carl.

‘It's a very young girl!’ Merry looked at the young and pretty Nicole.At first, she was wide- eyed, but quickly, a look of mixed feelings came up on her face.

Eber and Simon also looked back.

When they saw Nicole's face, there was a look of pleasant surprise in their eyes.

Chapter 573

This girl who was slowly approaching had a cold rosemary-like mysterious feeling in her and looked even prettier than Merry.

The people sitting at the end of the table were closer to Nicole and received a greater visual impact.

They all looked at Nicole and were lost for words.

Nicole looked nonchalant despite all the stares.She felt that she had learned nothing else at the Royal Creek Institute, but her endurance against the stares from others had at least doubled.

Carl had a hint of surprise in his eyes when he saw Nicole's insouciant face.

The two ignored everyone around them and walked straight toward Elijah.

Everyone was surprised to see that their leader, who had seemed to be uninterested in anything, had stood up and made a gesture of embrace.He watched as Nicole came over and gave her a gentle hug.

"Thank you for coming, Nicole."

Nicole did not resist.

The courteous hug was just a social etiquette, and they had said goodbye in this way before.

This was hardly surprising for Carl, but everyone was looking at what happened with their mouths agape.

‘We didn't know that our leader was so gentle"

Even Eber and Simon had not snapped back from their surprise.

‘What the hell is going on here? Who is this girl who received the highest level of treatment from our Elijah?"

Nicole ignored the others’ glances.She and Carl sat down on either side of Elijah naturally.

Elijah looked at Nicole with a smile and then instructed a servant, who was also in shock, to serve food.

But at least, this servant of the Turmann family, who was highly professional, quickly snapped back and went into the kitchen right away.

Soon, everyone was served a sizzling sirloin steak.

Nicole looked at the steak and smiled gently —after all these years, Elijah had still not forgotten her favorite medium -well steak served with black pepper sauce.

Elijah looked at Nicole's expression and was happy to know that she was pleased.He gently lifted the glass full of red wine, swirled it a little, and became the first person to clink glasses with Nicole.He then took a sip, looked at the rest of the people at the table, and slowly opened his mouth.

"From today onward, Nicole will take full control of the investigation and handling of this incident.All of you need to cooperate and listen to her.So you all hear me clearly?"

‘Listen to this little girl?"

Everyone looked at Elijah, dumbfounded and incredulous, but still nodded because of his authority.

Merry was the only person who looked defiantly at Nicole 'l asked Elijah for this right many times, and he refused every time.When this brat came along, he immediately delegated his power to her.This is not good and proper"

The steak was not to her taste, and she had no appetite for the meal anymore.

Merry bitterly put cutlery in her hand on the plate in front of her, making a crisp clank, which was a subtle expression of her dissatisfaction.

"I'm full.I will excuse myself first," she said.

Although not a direct rejection of Elijah's decision, the move had silently challenged Elijah's authority.

 

Chapter 574

But Elijah could not care less about her.He nodded, then turned his head back as if he enjoyed talking to Nicole.

Merry looked at Elijah's indifferent attitude toward her and trembled with anger.She blamed it all on Nicole for not being self- aware.She shot a glare at Nicole before going back to her room ina hoff.

Simon looked thoughtfully at Nicole with cold eyes and then also put down his cutlery, wiped the corners of his mouth, and stood up to leave.He did not even excuse himself, and it was already a provocation.

But Elijah was sitting, unperturbed.

Instead, it was Carl who gazed the back of Simon with a cold look in his eyes.

Thinking of what Simon had done, Carl moved his hands, wanting to say something.

Elijah suddenly pressed his hand down and shook his head at him, then continued to look at Nicole and smiled.

''What do you think, Nicole?"

Nicole cut the steak slowly and methodically, brought the sauced steak to her mouth, and chewed it slowly.

Steaks were one of the few types of meat she liked.She took her time to chew and then swallowed the food in her mouth thoroughly before slowly saying, "It's not that difficult."

Elijah heard her reply, and the smile on his face grew broader.He gently patted Carl on his hand before letting go of him and starting eating.

With Nicole's assurance, he basically did not have to worry much.

After the meal, someone took Nicole to the room that Elijah had prepared for her.

Instead of asking Elijah how he got to know she was coming, Nicole gave Carl a meaningful look.

Carl noticed the look in her eyes and winked at her apologetically.

Nicole looked at him and shook her head helplessly before entering the room.She quickly took a shower.

Just as she was drying her hair, someone knocked on the door and called out in Hustuaburgian that sounded unnatural, "Nicole, I've brought what you want."

Nicole recognized the voice.It was the stodgy man she had seen earlier.

Her eyes lit up, and she quickly opened the door.

To her surprise, she saw a huge chunk of things outside.But she was quick to say thank you.

Then she walked over to the chunk of steel and effortlessly put her hand in.

A few seconds later, she pulled out a tiny chip with two fingers.

Eber watched what Nicole was doing and quickly understood what she was thinking.

So he reminded her, saying, "It's useless, Nicole.we've already checked; the enemy has destroyed their robots abandoned on the battlefield, and we couldn't extract anything from them."

Nicole looked at the man with a serious face and smiled.

"It's okay.I will try."

Then she turned and went back to her room, deliberately leaving the door open.

Eber looked at Nicole from behind and knew that she was letting him watch from the sidelines.

It just so happened that he was also eager to find out what kind of ability this young girl, whom his Elijah favored, possessed and if she was worthy of him listening to her.He politely took a few steps inside, kept a very polite distance, and watched what Nicole was doing.

Chapter 575

Nicole's expression remained unchanged.

Eber saw her take out her battered computer and found that he had seen it somewhere before.

Nicole did not give him much time to reminisce as she had connected the broken chip to the computer as if she was going to do something.

Eber could not help but say again, "It's not going to work.We have asked the world's top hackers to do the repair, but the damage is too severe; even they could not find a solution."

The undertone was that when even the world's top hackers could not fix it, Nicole was even less likely.But Nicole said nothing.She just looked at the reading progress bar on the computer screen and gently tapped on the desk rhythmically with her fingers.

Eber frowned in disgust at her stubbornness of not listening to the advice of others.

‘What's going on with her? I've told her that there is no way she can fix it.Does she think she is better than those top hackers in Mecrounia?'

Thinking of this, he turned around and wanted to leave, not wanting to look at the result that he had seen countless times.

All the previous attempts had failed.

In his eyes, Nicole was a fool who had too high of an opinion of herself.

But as Eber turned around, he heard an incredibly rapid keyboard tapping sound.

A look of consternation flashed in his eyes, and then he spun back and took a look.

'This is by no means the speed a layman could do at!' In the few seconds, while he was turning around, Nicole had activated her own restoration program, her fingers flowing over the keyboard so quick that Eber could barely see where she was typing.

But the reading progress bar that had paused because of the broken chip had started to move rapidly.He could not help but come closer and take a careful look at the computer screen with incredulity in his eyes.

‘This girl did it!' Until the reading progress bar reached 100 percent, Nicole's hands still typed rapidly on the keyboard.She looked extremely focused and convincing to him.At least at this moment, even Eber had a ridiculous thought in his mind.

'Maybe this girl can really help my family solve the crisis!"

The progress bar moved quickly, but Nicole's fingers moved even quicker until the reading reached 100 percent.Yet she was still not stopping but quickly following up with a stability maintenance program.Only then did she hit the enter key with a straight face.

The robot's chip was the carrier of all its information and programs, and the identity of the enemy must also be stored inside.

So the enemy had chosen to fry the chips when it was too late to clean up the battlefield strewn with the massive number of the wreckage of robots.

Frying the chips was almost equivalent to destroying the robots' central nervous system and also cutting off the possibility of the Turmann family tracing it to them and launching retaliation.

The enemy had really been meticulously trying to cover their tracks.But it was a pity that they met Nicole.

Eber was rooted to the spot as he looked at the layers of information that appeared in front of his eyes.

This thing had bothered them for a long time, and in just one minute, Nicole had solved it for them.

He now realized that he should have known better when Elijah had such high regard for this girl; she was more than met the eyes.
