Ergebnis für "the squad" in Abenteuer

Kai hat die Begegnung mit der Killer-KI, die sich selbst "Der Gott in der Maschine" nennt, im Dark Net nur knapp überlebt. Doch er hat keine Zeit, um sich zu erholen. Er wird auf Level Zwei befördert, und hat nun Zugang zu allem, was Helltek zu bieten hat. Das Leben auf dem Campus könnte perfekt sein, wäre da nicht die Tatsache, dass der Cyber Squad einer der riskantesten Jobs der Welt ist. Die mörderischen KI ist längst nicht Kais einziges Problem. Auch die Hacker, die TSOTA angegriffen haben, planen schon bald wieder zuzuschlagen, und ein Verräter innerhalb des Cyber Squad hilft ihnen.

Als Kai, einer der besten Gamer der Welt, in das Cyber Squad aufgenommen wird, glaubt er zunächst, seinen Traumjob ergattert zu haben. Spiele testen und dafür fürstlich belohnt werden, was kann es Besseres geben? Doch schon bald stellt er fest, dass das ein Irrtum war, der ihn sein Leben kosten könnte. Bekleidet mit einem Hightech-Anzug, der seinen Körper und sein Gehirn schützen soll, dringen Kai und sein Team in die gefährlichsten und aufregendsten virtuellen Welten ein, um sie von allem zu säubern, was für normale Spieler schädlich sein könnte.

Kai thought he had the best job in the world. Playing VR games for a living. Not if the games are trying to kill you. The Net is the last great frontier, a wilderness of data filled with mysteries beyond imagination. Bugs, a harmless annoyance in earlier decades, have become a deadly menace in times when gamers connect their brains directly to VR.

Nichts ist so, wie es scheint...Nach dem Hackerangriff, bei dem Kai und sein gesamtes Team fast ums Leben gekommen wären, ist jeder bei Helltek nervös. Schlimmer noch, alle Beweise deuten darauf hin, dass der Saboteur ein Mitarbeiter des Unternehmens ist. Kai fürchtet nicht nur um seine Sicherheit sondern auch um die seiner Freunde. Der Verdacht, dass jemand, der ihm nahe steht, dafür verantwortlich sein könnte, ist beunruhigend. Und das ist nur eines von Kais Problemen.
