Chapter 33 - the shadow offensive
The Cipher Syndicate did not wait for Emma to respond to their vile extortion. Within exactly twenty-four hours of the drone's arrival, they launched a massive, coordinated global offensive designed to completely cripple the intelligence agency.
A highly sophisticated, military-grade cyber-virus systematically infected the navigation and communications grids of three primary logistics hubs in Europe, permanently freezing thousands of automated systems and locking down entire tactical supply chains.
Simultaneously, heavily funded anonymous shell companies launched a devastating public relations smear campaign. They entirely fabricated massive unauthorized surveillance scandals to destroy Emma's immaculate global reputation and force congressional oversight.
The Syndicate fully expected the intelligence director to panic, to beg for a secret negotiation, and to surrender her multi-billion-dollar network to stop the bleeding. They severely underestimated the lethal brilliance of the woman they were attacking.
