The next day, since he went back late, Tony slept all the way until noon before waking up.
When he awoke, he saw everyone casually moving around in the living room.
As soon as Tony walked out, Miguel noticed and immediately asked, “Master, you just woke up?”
Tony nodded and walked over, asking, “Is there anything to eat?”
If it weren't for hunger waking him up, he would probably have slept until the afternoon.
Hearing his request, Miguel immediately responded, “Yes, I've saved some food for you.”
Upon seeing the situation, Tony walked over to the table. Miguel took out the food and placed it in front of Tony , then sat down.
“Is it enough? If not, I can go out and buy more,” said Miguel.
Tony glanced at it and said, “It's enough.”
Miguel finally nodded in relieve.
Tony sat down and took a few bites of his meal. He glanced around the living room but didn't see Thalia. Frowning, he asked, “Hasn't Thalia woken up yet?”
“She went out after eating,” said Miguel.
“She went out? Where did she go?” asked Tony .
“Well, she said she is going out to ask for backup, but specifically...” said Mu Bai shaking his head.
Tony nodded thoughtfully, and then, as if suddenly remembering something, he looked at the side, and called out, “Ben .”
“Yes?” responded Ben when he heard the sound and looked at him, “What's up?”
“Is there a Darknetz outpost here?” Da Bao asked.
When Ben heard that he pondered for a moment before saying, “…It seems like there really is!”
Upon hearing his tone, Tony furrowed his brows and asked, “You know about this too?”
Tony 's impression of Ben was that although Ben was involved in Darknetz, he was a philosophical person who didn't really care about these matters.
Ben also walked towards the table, sat across from Tony , and said, “I just happened to glance at it when I was browsing the internet for mechanical information earlier!”
Tony asked, “Why didn't you say something if you knew about it?”
Ben immediately played innocent and replied, “Well, you didn't ask!”
Tony retorted, “Do I need to ask about this kind of thing?”
“Why isn't it necessary? Besides, how do I know that you don't know?” asked Ben .
Everyone knew that Tony spent most of his time surfing the internet. Apart from studying, he devoted all his time to researching things on the computer. Who would think that there was something he didn't know?
Tony looked at him, and for a moment, he was at a loss for words.
At this moment, Tony looked over to Donna , who was watching television in the living room, and couldn't help but ask, “Donna , do you know about this, too?”
“Of course, I know!” responded Donna without even turning her head.
When Miguel noticed the situation, he asked, “Do you know what we're talking about?”
Upon hearing his question, Donna turned and looked at them with a somewhat helpless expression. “Aren't you talking about Darknetz's outpost that is here? Of course, I know about it!”
Miguel's eyes widened. Wasn't she watching the television just now?
However, Tony didn't seem surprised at all. He looked at her and asked, “How did you know?”
“Thalia told me,” said Donna .
“When did she tell you?” asked Tony .
“Before coming here, we talked about it on the helicopter,” said Donna .
“How come I didn't know about this?” asked Tony becoming even more curious.
However, Donna smiled and said, “That's a question you should ask yourself.” After saying that, she looked away and continued watching TV.
Tony was rendered speechless.
So, I'm the only one who doesn't know, huh?
Now, I realize I have spent too much time surfing and have neglected some crucial matters. Today, I must start cramming information.
With that thought in mind, Tony glanced at the computer nearby, pulled it closer, and turned it on.
As he ate and browsed the internet, Miguel was about to lean in for a closer look when Ben , sitting nearby, spoke up mysteriously. “Darknetz secrets, if you know too much, be careful of being caught by Thalia and...” As he said that, he made a throat-slitting gesture.
Upon seeing that, Miguel hesitated for a moment and then sat back.
It isn't that I am frightened, but out of respect, I shouldn't lean my head over again.
At that moment, Tony was eating while looking at the computer, quickly browsing all of Darknetz's secrets.
Tony had always known that Darknetz was developing quite well, but after seeing all these materials, he understood better how good Darknetz's development was. And, it wasn't just good, it was top-notch, especially in the past two years. Since he first joined the dark web with only four or five locations, it has expanded to cover almost the entire world.
Among them, some were events he had participated in. When Tony saw those, he couldn't help but feel a slight pride.
It's impossible to say he didn't have a sense of honor, as Darknetz was his pride and joy. If it weren't for Alpha Kilian 's involvement with Darknetz, he would never have considered leaving this line of work.
Now that he had gained such a clear understanding, he realized Darknetz held infinite possibilities for the future, and here, he could unleash his limitless potential.
His eyes became increasingly clearer and brighter as he thought of these things.
And so, Tony quickly crammed information on those things and gained a clear and comprehensive understanding of Darknetz.
By the time he looked up from his computer, the sun had already begun to set in the west.
Tony glanced at his wristwatch, noticing it was already around four o'clock.
Turning his head, he saw Miguel was already propping his head and dozing off at the side.
“Has Thalia not returned yet?” asked Tony .
Upon hearing his voice, Miguel immediately opened his eyes and, seeing Tony , asked in a daze, “Master, what did you say?”
Tony glanced at him without saying anything, and directly took out his phone, about to call Thalia. Just at that moment, a sudden noise came from outside.
As he looked up and gazed outside, he saw Thalia walking in from outside.
Tony noticed her, so he got up to walk toward her, and asked, “You just came back? What took you so long?”
“If we are asking for backup, shouldn't we make some arrangements?” asked Thalia as she raised an eyebrow.
At that moment, Tony 's gaze shifted behind her, and asked, “So, where are the people?”
“I didn't let them come over but sent them straight to the place we were at yesterday. I've also arranged for a few people to stake out the meet-up place tonight. Don't worry, everything is well taken care of!” said Thalia.
Tony was quite at ease when it was Thalia handling things.
Tony followed behind her and sat down at the table. He also called over Ben and Donna to join them.
The few people gathered together.
Tony looked at them and said, “Let me go over tonight's plan. Today, Miguel and I will move together. Magus will meet up with Lindon, and we must take Lindon down. Thalia and Darknetz's
buddies will go and rescue Lina.”
Miguel heard the plan and nodded.
At that moment, Ben asked from the side, “What about me and Donna ?”
Tony looked at them and said, “After we finish our task today, we'll leave this place. You and Donna will be in charge of tidying up here. Once everything is settled, we'll come and pick you up.”
Ben furrowed his brow and said, “We didn't bring much stuff when we came here, so there's not much to pack. Besides, shouldn't you all take care of your things yourselves? We're not responsible for that!”
“Ben !” shouted Tony .
“Ben is right, Tony. I know we may not be much help in this matter, but since we're all together here, shouldn't we act as a team? Just in case, I'm just saying, just in case there's something we can help with, right? At least we won't cause any trouble!” said Donna looking at him.
