Chapter 324: On Plain Sight
I scanned through all the records, and the details inside provided me with more knowledge about the inner workings of Cerebrum South Korea.
I now knew the location of my mother, which turned out to be Jeju Island. Contrary to my initial belief, the Seoul Branch was not the main headquarters in South Korea.
The pieces of the puzzle fell into place, now I knew the reason behind the surprisingly weak security in this place.
*CLICK.
I turned off the computer and leaned back in my chair. My mind raced as I considered my next move, various simulations running through my mind as I tried to choose the best course of action.
There were 3 things I needed to do in order to fully control this place .
First, I needed to gain control over the other five directors, the highest ruling bodies in this place.
Second, I had to hack into the mainframe that controlled all the scanners in this facility, which could neutralize my powers.
The last step was to utilize my Oath to wrap everything up.
The directors would be easy; the main issue was hacking into the mainframe.
I communicated with the person I'm currently controlling within his subconsciousness and figured out that the central mainframe of this base was located on a different floor.
This floor was heavily guarded and directly connected to the mainframe of Cerebrum Asia. If they detected someone hacking into the system, the area had a self-detonator in place that would release gas, killing everyone.
If it were just a normal server, it wouldn't be a problem.
However, I found out that it was actually a biological computer with its own artificial intelligence. This was the reason it was isolated from other servers—Cerebrum feared it could leak into the Internet, so they only allowed it to communicate with other Biological Computers.
'I wonder what kind of biological computer we are talking about,' I thought to myself. I was curious about how they were able to create one to begin with, and whether it works similarly to my Mind Computer.
"Time to work ,"
After memorizing the location of the main server, I stood up from my chair and went to the next office .
DING !
I pressed the circular button on the metal door and waited for the person inside to open it. These doors were mechanical, and though I could bypass them through teleportation, I found it a hassle considering that I could just enter the normal way.
*SWING!
The door open up
"Oh, good timing," a man in his 50s wearing a white polo shirt greeted me. He looked like he was on his way to do something important.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"We have an emergency meeting," he replied and walked away, gesturing for me to follow him.
I was curious, so I matched his pace and didn't control him right away.
Fortunately, there were no scanners on our way to an area that seemed to be a meeting room.
The door slid open automatically, revealing a space that resembled a scene from a futuristic movie.
There was a large 100-inch monitor displaying a map of the world at the front, catching my attention. The table was made of glass, and various images were visible on its surface, creating a high-tech and sophisticated atmosphere.
'Advanced technology!' I exclaimed inwardly. I'm a sucker for this type of thing.
"Sit down so the meeting can start," a man with a mean-looking face commanded. He seemed to be a big shot among the directors, so I followed suit and behaved.
Seeing everyone here made me feel like I was really lucky; in this meeting, I could check off one item from my to-do list; Control Everyone .
"Do you all remember that Gifted in North Korea ?" The mean-looking man asked.
Everyone nodded, including me. After hearing the word "Powerful" , "Handsome, Awesome" and "North Korea," it was obvious that they were talking about me.
"We confirmed from our research team that he was in fact controlling Origin energy ," The mean looking man declared.
"Impossible! Are you sure?" Another director reacted, his face contorted in anger. He must really hate the Zol Bloodline.
I was already aware of this origin energy after reading my grandfather's files. If my assumption was correct, then it was the same energy that I could see whenever I use Telekinesis.
"It was a good thing that we killed that monster , " Another one chimed in with a sneered of contempt.
'Hey, hey, calling me a monster is a bit much,' I protested inwardly. These people could not even appreciate how good I was compared to my relatives. I should get recognition instead of insults.
But that was for a later time. I would make sure that they would prostrate themselves in submission after take over this place.
For now, I was curious about what would unfold in this meeting. Without the worry of being discovered, I acted casually and observed .
"But we still have a problem. The Main HQ is blaming us for allowing someone like that to cause international conflict. They are now asking for our stock of Varium." the mean-looking man answered. He seemed adamant about not parting ways with it.
'Varium?' I mused . This was new information, so I went back into the subconscious of my puppet and asked him about it.
According to him, Varium was some kind of special mineral. He didn't know where this material came from, but it had the ability to increase the lifespan of ordinary humans. It could also assist in cultivating powerful gifted without them going crazy.
'Oh, so it's basically useless to me,' I chuckled to myself. I did not need a special mineral to grow stronger; I already have the system.
Besides, I have a phobia against minerals and stones. For all I know, this thing they call Varium could kill me.
'Okay, time to wrap this up. I've heard enough.'
But before I could use my power, the mean-looking guy said something that almost made me jump in joy.
"So, who will deliver the Varium to Jeju Island?"
