Liam grinned, clasping his hands together. "Touché. But at least I wasn\'t the one throwing boulders at people for showing up in the wrong neighborhood."

Ram, who had been quietly laughing at their banter, finally spoke up. "Alright, you two, save some of that energy. We\'re on the same team now, so let\'s not waste it before the real fight starts."

Liam gave a mock salute. "Yes, sir! But seriously, Bro, what about you? Did you manage to awaken?"

Ram\'s grin widened as he pointed to the small creature sitting on his shoulder. "Haha, don\'t you see it? I successfully awakened and became a Spiritual Planter. Meet Ling\'er, my spirit pet."

Liam\'s eyes widened, the playful glint replaced with a mix of awe and disbelief. "But… how?" he whispered; his voice barely audible.

"Didn\'t they say you had zero affinity to Reiki? That it was impossible?" Initially, he sensed something different after meeting him, but he only thought that it was his own imagination.

Now, it\'s confirmed; Ram appears more relaxed and approachable than before, he felt more carefree and approachable, all that pent-up anger and depression of being unable to awaken, was now gone and he seemed to be back to himself as when they were kids.

Ram shrugged, still smiling. "I\'m not sure how the Shadow Society pulled it off, but it worked. Based on what you\'ve told me, I must have been unconscious for over five days. All I remember is waking up two days ago, already an Awakener."

Liam, still processing the information, quickly asked, "Then, are you allowed to go back? I mean, it\'s great that you became an Awakener, but don\'t you want to leave? The Cyber Core district is a nightmare compared to the underground city we grew up in." While he was genuinely happy for Ram, he was also worried.

The thought of the Cyber Core district—made him uneasy, he witnessed sights he had never wished to see in his life.

Things like slave trading, organ trafficking, illegal trade of advanced cybernetic enhancements, implants, or artificial intelligence chips that could violate ethical boundaries, and smuggling weapons can be called small-time jobs here.

Ram sighed, shaking his head. "Nope. They made me sign a 15-year contract. If I break it, my name goes on the bounty list."

Liam frowned. "So, anyone can hunt you down for the reward, not just the Shadow Society?"

"Exactly," Ram said. "I don\'t know what the Shadow Society\'s true motive is, but for now, I have to focus on staying alive and keeping my status."

They quickly made their way back to the dimly lit subway station, where Su Mu and Groot were busy organizing the supplies into the truck.

Given Groot\'s current physique, he could effortlessly carry items weighing thousands of pounds, which simplified the arrangement of all the necessary equipment.

Mai on the other hand was still in her workspace with Xiao Mu, she was meticulous, making sure all the weapons were working perfectly.

These include weapons such as traditional firearms like enhanced Assault rifles and enhanced Sniper rifles that fire high-caliber bullets, made with advanced materials to increase range, accuracy, and stopping power.

Special firearms, such as the Gauss rifle, utilize electromagnetic coils to propel metal projectiles at high velocities over long distances.

Along with various types of grenades, such as Explosive grenades, Smoke grenades, Fragmentation grenades, which disperse shrapnel upon detonation, and a few EMP grenades, that can emit an electromagnetic pulse to disable nearby electronic devices, cybernetic implants, and vehicles within a specific radius.

As the group gathered, Ram introduced Liam and Little Black to the rest of the team.

Liam quickly got adjusted to the environment. Well as soon as he spotted Su Mu, he couldn\'t help but start flirting.

"Hey there, Miss. Need any help with that? I\'ve been known to be pretty handy with tools." While Little Black went off running around playing with Ling\'er.

Su Mu didn\'t even look up, her hands moving swiftly arranging things with practiced ease.

"I\'m fine, you should focus on getting yourself ready for the mission," she said coolly, brushing off his flirtation with the same disinterest she had for a broken screw.

Liam chuckled, unbothered. "Acting cold huh, I see. You\'re really not making this easy for me."

Sid, noticing the exchange, rolled his eyes and stepped forward, clapping his hands to get everyone\'s attention.

"Alright, team, enough with the distractions," he said, his voice cutting through the noise of the busy station particularly towards Liam, like someone who\'d been through this routine many times before.

"According to the mission description, there\'s a monster den that\'s popped up nearby. Our job is to clear out the monsters and get our hands on the Source seed."

"Remember, we\'re not the only ones gunning for that source seed, we need to be as quick and efficient as possible."

"Since there will be others taking the same mission, you can expect the unexpected." He continued, "However, with my sister\'s help, it should not be that difficult."

His trust in Mai\'s strength is not solely because she is the only Tier 3 among them, but also because he knows her sister is a rare professional with two main professions that complement each other well.

He knew how strong she could be once she got serious, he didn\'t want to remember what happened last time when she got angry.

"Well, it seems everyone is here; this makes it easier," Mai said as she walked out of the workshop and approached the group, with two humanoid robots.

The robots, were the same working robots Ram used for cleaning a new compartment for Su Mu last night, were now equipped with multiple weapons.

They bore no resemblance to their former selves from the night before, one was carrying a long blade, while the other was equipped with a large rifle.
