Chapter 1045

When Matthew reached the doorway, he could no longer contain himself and faced a wall. The thought of throwing a punch flashed in his mind, and the exoskeleton- covered fist suddenly shot forward.

The thunderous impact echoed through the room as the mechanical fist slammed into the concrete wall. The wall crumbled as if hit by a cannonball, sending chunks of concrete and brick scattering across the floor.

Matthew stared in shock as this kind of power was not humanly possible. The dust cloud made him cough, snapping him out of his amazement, and he quickly backed away several steps.

As he retreated toward Sonny, he noticed his legs felt heavy and realized he had forgotten to control the exoskeleton with his thoughts again.

Just then, Matthew's phone suddenly rang on the table. He focused his thoughts on picking up the phone, and the exoskeleton's hand reached out to grab it. Looking at the screen, he saw it was the person who had asked him to return to Delisnora Bay.

"Hello?" he answered.

"Why aren't you here yet?" Cameron growled through clenched teeth.

"Traffic," Matthew replied casually.

"Traffic?" Cameron exploded in rage. "I arranged for every road in Lambda City to be cleared. There's not a single traffic jam anywhere. Are you lying to me?"

Matthew was surprised. This guy had some serious pull if he could mobilize traffic police across the entire city just to get him to Delisnora Bay.

He improvised and replied, "I'm not in Lambda City. I'm stuck in traffic in the north. Just wait a bit longer-I'll be there soon!"

Cameron's patience was gone, and he snapped, "You're stalling again. If you don't

The threat to his home sent a surge

Matthew He no longer cared if

Delisnora Bay was a trap or if someone was lying in wait. "Wait. there. I'm heading to Defisnora Bay right now!"

Matthew quickly hung up and left.

"Wait! You haven't taken off the exoskeleton!" Sonny called out as Matthew headed

for the door. "Where are you going?"

"I need to take care of something while wearing this!" Matthew replied.

He realized the exoskeleton would

be too noticeable, so he grabbed a large lab coat and threw it over the suit Then, he focused his thoughts on running, and the exoskeleton immediately responded, carrying him toward the elevator.

After Matthew left, Sonny muttered, "He didn't even arrange for me to work with Emily before leaving."

The other researchers stared at the collapsed wall in awe. "Holy cow, he took down a wall with one punch!"

"This exoskeleton is basically a weapon of mass destruction," one commented. "Whoever wears this would be unstoppable," another added.

"Yeah, if that punch had hit me, I'd have been killed in a flash," a third researcher chimed in.
