    “Even if we stay as just a private group, that’s still better than crossing the line and living like hollow shells!”


    “We don’t need that data vault anyway!”


    “Hahaha…”


    Benedict suddenlyughed. He even started pping his hands.


    “What are youughing at?”


    Tilda frowned, barely showing it.


    Anyone else would think Benedict was mocking them–seeing them as too young and naive to throw away such a golden chance just because of pride.


    But Tilda felt something different. Hisugh didn’t carry mockery at all. <fn167f> This text is hosted at f?i?n?d?n?o?v?e?l?</fn167f>

    “You’ve passed the test, Comet Squad.


    “As promised, you’ll have full independence. Your work won’t be much different from before.


    “You’ll also get national–level support, and we’ll give you ess to the national data vauk

    “That case stumped the cyber security centers of multiple countries. So in terms of ability, you’re the best. No doubt about it.


    “There’s no mission too hard for you. But this trial wasn’t about skill–it was about whether you’d hold your ground in a critical moment. Whether you’d stick to your bottom line and not

    “Like Wesley said, once you touch the national vault, we can’t guarantee you won’t leak anything. This wasn’t about ability–it was about character.”

    The misunderstanding cleared. Tilda finally understood his real purpose.


    “For hackers, a national–level data vault, full independence, and ess to national resources— that’s an almost irresistible temptation.

    “Exactly. And your answer was perfect. Wesley, you have nothing to say after seeing their choice, right?”


    Benedict smiled and nced at Wesley.

    Her eyes shimmered with determination.


    Jarrett and the others were moved by her faith in them.


    This woman–this “idol“-had led them over countless peaks. She had brought them to heights. they’d never dreamed of.


    Without Tilda, they would have stayed just another small private group, their skills never pushing forward.


    Without her, they never would’ve earned the nation’s recognition or saved the world from disaster.


    Tilda was like a zing light cutting through the darkness, guiding them to a future they couldn’t see before.


    They trusted herpletely.


    And what made them even prouder–someone so strong, so confident, so brilliant—trusted them just as much.
