Ch. 616..620: My Wife Is A Hacker Chapter 616-620

Chapter 616

Simon looked with intense disdain at Nicole, who was walking toward the workshop unhurriedly.

“This girl knows nothing about robotics. Letting her use the material is the biggest waste of resources.’

Simon did not hold back but snorted at Nicole and bellowed, “If you don’t know robotics, stop pretending that you know. You should go home instead. If you can make a robot, I will eat this material.”

Simon mocked Nicole for a while, but he did not get a single response. Upset, he slowly approached Nicole, who was walking ahead slowly. Then he glanced at Nicole, who was keeping a straight face and then walked toward his workshop. Nicole looked at Simon and frowned before heading toward her workshop. Nicole looked expressionlessly at the workshop hatch in front of her and gently put her finger to it.

Simon looked at the workshop in front of Nicole, his face turning extremely contemptuous.” That workshop is not something you may touch. My father forbids anyone from entering the workshop. Do you know the consequences of trespassing?” A faint sense of schadenfreude quickly appeared in Simon’s eyes as he thought about his previous experience of trying to go inside and almost being shot by infrared light. ‘This stupid girl has extended her finger. I want to see what will happen to her before leaving.’ Simon stood where he was, folding his arm and looking at Nicole with expectation in his eyes.’ Quick! I will be most pleased to see the girl, to whom Elijah has given her the right, get killed.’

But what happened next utterly surprised Simon; the workshop hatch slowly opened after sensing Nicole’s fingerprint. Simon looked on with his mouth agape, doubting his eyes for a moment. ‘How did she open the sealed workshop hatch?’ Nicole glanced with a half-smile at Simon, whose face had almost collapsed. The hatch closed behind her after she walked in, leaving Simon standing there with a blue face to deal with this hard-to-accept outcome.

‘Who the hell is this woman?’

Simon frowned, but there was no time to waste; he also entered his workshop. But he had difficulty concentrating, resulting in the waste of a lot of materials.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was the day of the robotic competition.

Everyone left the workshop early. Some of them looked excited as if they had won the game, and some of them looked dejected, seemingly giving up this competition. Vera’s expression did not look too good either; her changed plan did not work to her satisfaction, but it was the best she could come up with now. Meanwhile, Merry looked extremely confident. She proudly scanned her eyes over everyone at the scene

Carl had also emerged. He looked around with disappointment in his eyes when he did not see

Nicole.

Elijah sat there nonchalantly, looking at the young generation of the family. As Nicole came out of the workshop, his eyes lit up, and he finally opened his mouth.

“Go to the venue.”

Chapter 617

There are about fifty indirect descendants of the Turmann family, and only those in the top ten list of robotic competitions could sit and dine with the direct descendants.

So the robotic competition became the only chance for the indirect descendants to become somebody.

Many people stood nervously under the stage.

Because of the large number of participants, they would be divided into groups by ballot and compete for one-on-one.

Since the total number was even, each group comprised two people.

Nicole sat on the judges' bench, flanked by Eber and Elijah, both of whom were sitting precariously looking down at rings with a very serious look on their faces.

There were five rings; one main ring and four sub-rings.

Each had a mechanical barrier around to prevent people from being accidentally harmed outside the ring.

There was a large screen that broadcasted the robotic combat live and displayed the data analysis.

Everyone waited with great excitement for Elijah to announce the start of the draw.

Merry's expression remained unchanged; she kept looking at the entrance of the venue as if waiting for someone to arrive.

At last, she saw the door slowly open as Jared and Janus walked in.

The moment she saw Jared, her face glowed.She straightened her back reservedly, making her stand out from the crowd.

But Jared did not even spare a glance at her but looked straight at Nicole with a smile.

Janus was standing aside with tablets that had records of the data of the first and second generations of combat, ready to record all the data that would appear and surpass the combat data of the previous two generations.

Merry looked at Jared with an almost unstoppable flash of resentment in her eyes.She then looked at Nicole, who was sitting on the bench, and said coldly to Elijah, 'I wonder what makes her qualify to be a judge."

Elijah frowned at Merry, who was filled with resentment.

"Nicole is capable of it."

Merry sneered and looked around.

"Who here can prove that she can be our judge?"

Elijah's face sank.

But Merry was not afraid of him.She craned her neck to look at Nicole beside Jared, the jealousy in her eyes so apparent as if she was to cut Nicole into pieces.

Nicole's expression remained unchanged.

Just as Elijah wanted to say something, she stopped him and looked at the people who did not think she was qualified to be a judge.

"How do you want me to prove it?"

Merry saw her take the bait and was secretly delighted.

She maintained a bitter tone of voice as she said, "You come to compete with us, take part in the draw; the competition is absolutely fair.We can all see if you are qualified to be a judge and an agent for the Turmann family."

Jared looked at Merry, his eyes sharp as if a sword pierced through the foolhardy woman across from him.

But Nicole gently squeezed the palm of his hand, signaling him to stay calm.

"Why not?"

Nicole said, letting out a half-smile, not pretending but still looking as pure as the frost and snow.

"I'll compete with you all in the ring."

Elijah's eyes sparkled upon hearing this.

Nicole left the bench at once without giving Elijah time to think.

Carl clenched his fists as he looked at Nicole.

There was nothing more exciting than watching others competing on the same stage with Nicole.

Nicole looked at this group of people and walked casually into it, then quietly looked at Elijah on the other side.

Seeing that she had indeed made up her mind, Elijah smiled and announced that the draw had begun.

 

Chapter 618

Merry looked at Nicole from behind with a sinister expression in her eyes.

‘Nicole is either overconfident or too dumb to accept her challenge so easily.She probably doesn’t even know what robots are, let alone win the competition"

With this in mind, a look of disdain appeared in her eyes.

Merry looked bigoted at Jared, who was sitting languidly on the stage.She told herself she would prove to him that only she—not an eye candy like Nicole—deserved a powerful man like him.

The nervous faces in the surroundings eased up when they saw the fate awaiting Nicole.

They knew there would always be someone performing worse than them.

Thinking of this, all of them had a delightful look on their faces.

But in the process of drawing lots, many people had already expected their results, such a shy boy whose draw was making him pit against Merry.He froze as he looked at the number 7, which Merry also had in his hand.

Merry did not spare a glance at her opponent, though.

Instead, she held her head high and looked straight at the judges' bench with a prideful face.

Carl's opponent was a girl whose robotic talent was not outstanding but must not be underestimated.

Vera stomped her feet indignantly, but she quickly calmed down and looked at her opponent with disdain in her eyes.

As much as she would love to be in a group with Carlisle, she did not want to be eliminated so early in the competition.

So now she would make do with this opponent.

Thinking of this, a smile slowly crept across his face.

The boy saw her cute expression and started to stutter.

Both of them were number one, which meant that they would be the first to compete.

He had wanted to cotton up to the top player of the younger generation, like Vera, but she had no intention of talking to him, although she was polite.

Instead, she kept glancing at Carlisle affectionately, almost cringely.

The boy soon came to his senses and stopped being a wuss.He started practicing the formula and remote sensing method of controlling the robot.

Because of Nicole's participation, the even number of participants had become an odd number.

One person would get to skip the first round and go straight into the final of the second round.

Everyone wished they would be this lucky person.

But Nicole turned out to be the lucky one—the place belonged to her.

Everyone looked at the blank ballot paper in Nicole's hand, speechless and filled with envy.

After all, being able to advance to the final so easily, luck was also a part of strength.

Merry looked with a grave face at Nicole, who had a calm expression.

But she was not in a hurry because she expected that those who reached the final would all be the elite of the Turmann family.

Nicole was expected to lose badly to them, no matter which of them she faced.

But she very much hoped that she could compete against Nicole in the final so she could fix her in person.

Chapter 619

There was a fleeting cold light in Merry's eyes.

The draw was over, and the competition officially began.

Vera and the boy were the first to compete.

The boy controlled his remote- sensing robot; his combat data was quickly evaluated and displayed on the screen.

When Vera saw the data, a look of mockery appeared on her usually sweet face.She soon maneuvered her robot.

When it appeared, everyone exclaimed in awe, looking at her eyes with deep admiration.She deserved the name of being the best person of the younger generation.She adopted the cab mode of the first- generation robot, which crushed its opponent in terms of tonnage.

Vera proudly accepted the adoring gaze of everyone.She started her robot named Leah.

This robot, with a feminine appearance, bent down and took Vera into her body.

Cold sweat trickled down the boy's face.

‘Everyone knows that second- generation robots can't fight with first-generation ones.But how did Vera get the cab programming and manipulation? How did she get the comprehensive drawings of the first- generation robot?! But even so, he still gritted his teeth and chose to fight.

Merry looked at the robot that Vera had brought out with a hint of mockery in her eyes as she quickly realized something after the initial surprise.

No one expected to see the first-generation robot in the first round, and there were all second- generation robots in the other rings, which was disappointing to watch.

So almost everyone was focusing on Vera's battle.

At first, they had great expectations, hoping to see a devastating victory.

To their surprise, after the combat began, Vera's robot was indeed much more powerful than the opponent's, but it was in no way near crushingly strong.

Most people had never seen the combat of the first-generation robots, thinking that this was the limit of the first-generation robots and that the all-powerful first - generation robots that they admired were just a myth.

They screamed excitedly, thinking that Vera's first-generation robot was badass enough.

The boy who fought Vera also felt that he was strong.

The fact that he could hold out for such a long time while facing Vera convinced him of this, especially when he was against a first-generation robot.

Nicole narrowed her eyes as she looked at the data about Vera.

'Her robot's performance isn't as explosive as it should be.Its energy is unstable, power consumption is too high, and it lacks the most important core control of the first-generation robots, not to mention there is no multi- form transformation.Vera's robot is just a second-generation robot with the skin of a first- generation one.But even so, it is still not something that second-generation robots can handle"

The battle lasted about ten minutes and ended in Vera's victory.

Then came Merry's turn.

She looked at the shy boy across from her and said coldly, "Bring out your robot first."

The boy's robot was also a second- generation model, but it was much larger than that of an ordinary second-generation robot, which meant it had an advantage.

The fact that he could produce this proved that he had an exceptional talent for mechanics.

It was a pity that he was pitted against Merry.

Merry sneered, and then a massive humanoid robot appeared from behind her; its date was almost the same as that of Vera's robot.

When the boy saw this, he was almost in despair.He tried his best to fight on, but neither his strength and speed nor control could match his opponent's robot.

So he lost in the end.

Nicole looked at the boy across from Merry with a light flashing in her eyes.

There were still second - generation robots in the battle of the third, fourth, and right up to the eighth group.

Janus looked at the data on his tablet and frowned.

Chapter 620

Up to now, there had been only six people who had surpassed the ordinary second- generation robots, but none of the data could surpass the value of the first-generation robots.

Nicole looked at the group of people in front of her, exchanged a look with Elijah, and gently shook her head.

Elijah's face turned grave, but he said nothing, just giving her a nod of acknowledgment.

Finally, it was time for the ninth group.

Nicole saw Carl walking toward the main ring.His opponent was a girl with round, black- rimmed glasses that covered most of her face.

Nicole smiled and mimed an all-the-best with her mouth when Carl looked in her direction.

Vera was sitting offstage after her round, just in time to see the interaction between Nicole and Carl.She was exasperated.

The girl whom she grabbed by the arm cried out in pain.

When Vera came to her senses, she smiled and comforted the girl.

"I'm sorry.I was distracted.I didn't mean it."

The girl was quickly appeased and did not make a fuss about it.

Vera then turned to look at Carl on the stage and was shocked to see a round thing behind him.

‘What's that?’ Carl's expression remained unchanged as he saw those dumbstruck faces.

Using all five fingers of his hand, he pressed on the round robot, and soon the hatch opened, taking him in.

Nicole looked at the black-and-yellow ball-shaped robot, a smile flashing in her eyes.

The girl, who was Carl's opponent, was stunned for a long while before she snapped back and laughed uncontrollably.

"Carlisle, what the hell are you doing? Are you sure this is for combat?"

As soon as her voice trailed off, her robot appeared.It was a robot in the shape of a handsome male.

Nicole saw her combat data and was slightly surprised.

It had broken through the threshold of the second-generation robots, having a slightly higher combat strength than that of Vera.

Carl's voice came out of the round thing, and it sounded a little cute.

"Of course, it's for combat.Try me if you dare."

Olivia could not resist the dare.She was quiet on the outside, but deep down inside, she was a warlike person.

Olivia looked at Carl and controlled the robot remotely.

It was just a second-generation robot, but this girl had made it achieve such a parameter.

Meanwhile, Janus was writing something down on his tablet.

Carl just watched on, doing nothing but just standing in his place as his opponent charged at him.His behavior startled Olivia fora second.

But she had made her move, and there was no way to recall it.

So she could only watch her robot slash at her opponent.

"What the hell are you doing, Carlisle? You make me look as if I'm taking advantage of you!"

In her mind, it was low-class of her to attack if her opponent had not made its move.

Nicole raised an eyebrow and thought this girl was cute when she overheard Olivia's words.

But Vera, who was watching on the sidelines, obviously did not think so.She looked at Olivia with vicious eyes, as if she not only hated that Olivia could fight Carl but was also afraid of the capability of the robot Oliva had built.

Olivia had a quirky temperament, and the small team she led did not accept her.She did not expect Olivia had such powerful combat strength.

Elijah and Eber glanced at each other, surprised by how capable the quiet girl was.
