Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 168 Graplena

To her dismay, Violeta had beaten her to the chase.

Hence, she had to search the black market herself to find someone suitable.

When she received a message from the other side, Violeta sensed their boldness.

Having one's IP encrypted on the black market meant that a hacker had to break through the black market's protective barrier before uncovering their IP address.

This could lead to Violeta's own location being revealed.

It wasn't impossible to break through, but the danger was significant.

Taking such a risk, exposing her own IP and taking on the black market's firewall for just one deal, was something very few could do without getting caught. It was all danger and no benefit.

Most people with a good head on their shoulders wouldn't attempt it. After all, protecting oneself was vital.

However ...

Violeta happened to love excitement!

'Your test is quite innovative, buddy,' she replied.

From the amateurish test, Violeta deduced that the other person must be a newbie.

Only desperate hackers would resort to such risky tactics!

'Before me, I bet nobody agreed to your test, right?' she teased.

Zelena hesitated, wondering how the other person knew.

Many hackers had approached her before, but they all stopped replying after hearing about her test.

However, she maintained her arrogance, replying, 'You're wrong. Many have tried before, but all failed. My test is strict! If you can't handle it, don't bother wasting my time.'

Hah.

Violeta found this amusing.

The user's arrogant attitude reminded her of someone.

Plus, the ID 'Graplena' made her wonder if it was Zelena.

Intensely curious, and unafraid of anyone on the black market, Violeta replied directly, 'I accept your test. I'll give you an answer in half an hour.'

Then, she left the chat and started typing away on her keyboard.

Cracking the black market firewall was challenging, and she had to be careful not to expose herself.

Twenty minutes later, she successfully infiltrated the encrypted IPwork.

After scanning through countless encrypted IPs, she found Graplena's.

Following the search, she located the IP at 17-601, Fairwind Villas, in Arlowand, Hoiten.

Violeta stopped for a moment when she saw this IP.

This particular IP address.

It was one she knew very well.

It was from the place she was extremely familiar with ...

It was where the Blake family's residence was located.

So, the person behind 'Graplena' was Zelena after all.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Violeta leaned back in her chair, a faint smile forming on her lips.

"Zelena, seems like our destinies are intertwined, huh?

"We're bound to be lifelong enemies."

Now that she knew Zelena's identity, Violeta shared the IP address she found.

Zelena watched the time tick by, but there was no sign of Six. She

But suddenly, a chat box appeared, and she clicked on it.

Her own address was displayed. Zelena was amazed, surprised that Six had some skills after all!

Since the other person had found her IP, Zelena trusted their technical abilities.

She sent her contact information, saying, 'You can add my number. I'll text you when I need your services.'

Zelena shared her WhatsApp number.

Violeta registered a new phone number and added her on WhatsApp.

After successfully adding her number, Violeta noticed a new payment in her account.

As soon as she closed her computer, she heard a noise outside.

She rushed out of her room and found the window at the end of the corridor had been blown open by the wind.

She closed it and was about to go back when she heard strange sounds from Niall's room.

Violeta paused, then looked towards Niall's room.

She heard running water and singing from inside.
