Chapter 584 Secrets of the Starborn Order
The long, narrow eyes carried a roguish gentleness.
It was Quentin.
“You just walked over here?!”

“Of course!” Quentin dangled a piece of wire in his hand. With that, he could open any door.
“I covered the cameras in my room, but the ones in the hall definitely caught me. What’s the plan now, Beautiful?” Quentin grinned as he looked at her.
“I’m wondering what the next assessment will be. They’re moving us to another island. If it’s far away, that could be dangerous.” Theresa’s tone turned thoughtful.
The only reason she had dared to participate in this assessment at all was because the Blazing Sun Alliance had her back.
Just like before, when she had been able to enter the inner camp directly, she had been within her own sphere of control.
No matter how reckless she was, she always had protection. But heading to some unknown place? She had to weigh whether the risk was worth taking.
Just then, her door opened again–this time with a key.
The sound made Theresa shove Quentin into the bathroom and press herself against the wall by the entrance, poised like a predator ready to strike.
The door swung open. Standing outside was a staffer in a white coat, an access card hanging from her neck.
Theresa relaxed slightly when her eyes fell on the code stamped across the woman’s chest: A051.
The woman herself nearly jumped in fright at almost being ambushed, but then her eyes widened. “It’s you!”
“It’s you, Vinny’s mom.” Theresa straightened, her tone casual.
A051 froze at the words, eyes widening further. “Why are you still here? Where’s Vinny? I told you to leave!”
“She’s at my alliance base, safe. I didn’t bring her here,” Theresa explained.

At that, the panic in A051’s gaze eased a little, though her eyes flicked nervously toward the cameras in the room.
“Relax. I blocked them all,” Theresa said.
Only then did A051 exhale in relief. She shut the door quickly, her expression turning grave. “You shouldn’t have come. I told you the Divine Academy is powerful!”
“What exactly is the Divine Academy? How powerful?”
At the question, A051’s gaze darkened. Her brows furrowed. “You shouldn’t ask.”
Theresa’s eyes sharpened. “Do you remember what your daughter told you? She was nearly taken and turned into a meatfolk. You’ve never seen the meatfolk market, have you? I have. People are butchered and sold openly like livestock.”
A shiver ran through A051’s stiff body.
“The world is already hell under the zombie virus. Without it, you wouldn’t be separated from your daughter, and she wouldn’t have nearly ended up as someone’s dinner. How long do
you plan to keep protecting their secrets?”
A051’s face tightened. Finally, she asked, “Do you really want to know?”
“Talk.”
She let out a long sigh. “The Divine Academy isn’t just a school. It’s backed by an enormous organization.”
Theresa’s eyes lit up. “The Starborn Order?”
“You know of them?” A051’s surprise was clear.
“I’ve heard a little. The Divine Academy belongs to them, doesn’t it?”
“No. The Academy is only one branch, and the lowest one at that.” A051 met her gaze, her words slow and heavy. “The Starborn Order has four divisions: the Divine Academy, the Divine Institute, the Production Company, and the Legion.
“The Academy collects test subjects worldwide, selecting the strongest each year. The ordinary ones are used for basic research. The exceptional ones are sent to the Divine Institute.
“As for the Institute, the Production Company, and the Legion–I’ve never had access. I don’t know what they do. But the Academy alone is already terrifying, and it’s only the lowest level of
the Starborn Order.
“This isn’t something you can afford to provoke. You never should have come.”

Theresa’s heart pounded. The sheer scale of it, the power far beyond her imagination, thrilled
her to her core.
The Divine Academy, the Divine Institute, the Production Company, the Legion … the Starborn Order! So that’s what it looks like. So strong!
Just then, a shrill alarm rang out in the corridor. A051’s earpiece buzzed with a cold voice, and her expression shifted instantly. “They found out someone in the next dorm tried to escape. I have to go catch them.”
