Chapter 1483: cutie_pie143

Since the finals weren't finished, the organizers had to restart the competition. But somehow, whoever won didn't matter anymore—at least, not to the gentlemen who came just to see ten people try to infiltrate Fortress. Someone had already tried --X-- and all the men got more than what they came for:

The new security system Prime Group planned to launch in a few months.

So, while the finals continued, the VIPS on the second-floor section relaxed and enjoyed themselves. That mostly meant flocking around Penny and praising her to the high heavens.
