Chapter 263 An Unseen Cold 2

Aldrich switched co with V

"V, we're under attack," said Aldrich as he tapped his earpiece He took out his shades and put the "You scanned this area before

Are you sure there was nothing here?"

"shi+t, you're under attack!?" V sounded panicked, co on so that Aldrich was safe once she confir in the area with her scans

"H-hold up, I swear there was diddly squat there! I juh every camera in the area, every phone, every little bit of audio reception and i capability out there And not to htest bit of tech on the you, they have to be doing it cold"

"Cold is right," said Aldrich, glancing at the ice all around hiht, the ice did not show any signs of

But when V said cold, sheon any tech at all No communications either A completely isolated Alter

Then likely a multi-class Alter The type that had multiple abilities in one Like Seth Solar or Soloeneration all packed together "Blackout this area Cut off net signals, phones, whatever you can

I don't want cops and low ranking heroes to get here, if they even do bother with edge districts like this"

"I'm on it…wait-," V's voice crackled

"What is it?" said Aldrich

V spoke again, but her voice ca jah, her voice ca out already

It tried to cut me out, too, but this, at least I can deal with I'm still linked to your earpiece and the visuals fro is I can't access any of the tech nearby anymore because it's all disabled

It sucks to say this, boss, especially because I sold ht now as far as helping you navigate is concerned

Can't spot you any visuals by hijacking cameras or audio

fuck I've never been this useless insorry I still believe in your capabilities Trace the blackout source," said Aldrich, caleniuses tended to break when their talent was questioned, and he could sense that fro sure to keep a fir tone tous out, then they want to stay and fight To isolate us and hunt us down

But it alsocold They have to use some kind of tech for this

Either for that, or for the cloaking they have running In any case, it means they're trackable now, and you specialize in infiltration

Hunt them down Take them out if they're cybernetic"

Aldrich was fairly confident in this assessenerally all fell under one overarching enerated their power, flight, and heat beams with their main solar battery power

It was extremely rare, if not impossible, for an Alter to have poildly unrelated to each other

On top of that, it was a general rule that Alters with body boosting powers usually never crossed over with Psionic class powers that related to the , ice beaether

V spoke with the strain of wounded pride and disbelief "I can't find them"

"What?" Aldrich said By now, even he was in surprise, not expecting V to get pressed to this degree

V was top shelf talent

Where she was trained, the Den, was fa underworld technos so capable that they could threaten overnments Case in point, Z, also Den produced, had indirectly ended the 2077 Corpowar alacorp's servers whicha needle in a haystack look like child's play

Not even Blackwater, the equivalent of a prestigious hero acadeetV herself

And V was specialized in infiltration, in invading and taking over tech and infrastructure in the Cyberverse, and everything that connected to the Net was connected to the Cyberverse, exhibiting a cyberspace structure or signature that one could interact with or, in V's case, infiltrate, corrupt, or destroy

There was no way this could be beyond her

"This is beyondI've ever encountered before Totally alien Not as freakshow as that glitchy server, but still wack

I'ht now, but I can't pinpoint a source for the interference shi+t! I've never, ever been this useless!"

This was probably the very first time V had felt so useless She was always loud and cocksure, and for good reason Her resuht to be like that

"No, I'ive this oing to think out of the box"
