"Extremely difficult," a competitor nodded. "The calculation for this step is the core of the entire experiment. We've been racking our brains and still haven't come close. The Hope Initiative finally made progress, but the power outage scrambled their data... Ugh, what a tragedy."
Hearing this, a meaningful flash of delight crossed Adrian's dark eyes.
When he heard Serena's equipment had some sort of fusion micro-module, it felt like a brutal slap to his face.
His proudly touted top-tier hardware was nothing more than commercial garbage that tanked the island's grid.
And the scrap metal he thought she was using...
Was now the envy of every elite competitor on the island.
He had overheard plenty of people expressing deep jealousy over how lucky her teammates were to have such an omnipotent captain.
To be able to use hardware with an independent power source.
Every word of praise made Adrian feel incredibly suffocated and humiliated.
But now, he learned that this specific calculation was the core of the whole experiment.
And this core algorithm was virtually unsolvable.
That meant The Hope Initiative was facing a massive roadblock.
Now, Serena would finally understand the critical importance of connections and resources.
"Serena."
Adrian strode over, locking his gaze on her and raising his voice. "I've heard of this algorithm. It's currently a major puzzle on the international stage."
He cast a casual glance at the tablet she held.
The screen was filled with dense, complex code.
He couldn't read a word of it.
And he didn't believe Serena could either.
"I can use my privileges as an observer to connect you with a team of experts in the United Realmon States. Let those professionals handle the math."
He paused, lifting his chin slightly. "As long as you beg me right now, I'll help you."
The competitors gasped. "Contact the outside? Isn't that cheating?"
