Siheyuan: At the beginning, I can integrate everything!

In the central server room of futuristic technology, the blue screen faded, and the green light of the system restarting shone on everyone's faces.

The cheers hadn't even had a chance to erupt.

Zhang Huaimin's eye twitched as he looked at the English question that popped up on the screen.

"Your technology is outdated. Who are you, anyway?"

This hacker is quite alert, and also has a bit of a delusional personality.

Zhang Huaimin chuckled and casually typed a few words on the keyboard.

"I'm your grandpa."

Press the Enter key.

These words traveled along that invisible network data stream, hurtling towards the other side of the ocean at the speed of light.

He had no intention of letting the foreign rat that was trying to chew through his network cable get away with it.

"Ling'er, activate the 'Electronic Data Reverse Tracker'."

Zhang Huaimin issued the command in his mind, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.

"By the way, find out that kid's coordinates for me."

[Ding! Reverse tracking has been initiated.]

Within the system space, the immense computing power is like a behemoth awakening.

The source of the virus was instantly identified.

There are no obstacles, and no firewall can block this quantum penetration from higher dimensions.

"Oh? You've kept it well hidden."

Zhang Huaimin looked at the three-dimensional Earth model that appeared in his mind.

A red dot of light landed precisely on an extremely hidden coordinate deep within the Sierra Nevada Mountains in western North America.

"A military-grade bunker 100 meters underground, with an independent local area network and external communications."

"No wonder he dares to be so arrogant."

Zhang Huaimin touched his chin.

"Since you enjoy playing computer games so much, I'll grant you a peaceful night."

His fingers flew across the keyboard.

This time, he didn't attack the server that had already terrified him.

Instead, it follows that encrypted physical line, like an all-pervasive leech.

They infiltrated the external city's power grid dispatch center in the area where that secret base was located!

North America, Nevada, an underground secret base.

The ghost stared intently at the sudden message, "I'm your grandpa," that appeared on the screen.

He didn't understand Chinese pinyin, but the result translated by the translation software made his pale face turn bright red instantly.

humiliation!

The ultimate humiliation!

He, the uncrowned king of the Western hacker world, was actually ridiculed by a network administrator from a backward country!

"Damn bastard! You think you've won already?!"

The ghost, like an enraged beast, frantically typed on the keyboard.

He's going to activate the backup server; he's going to unleash an even more destructive ultimate virus.

He wants to turn that arrogant and ignorant Chinese internet into complete ruins!

"Alert! An abnormal external data stream intrusion has been detected!"

"Alert! The physical firewall has been breached!"

Inside the base, a piercing, synthesized mechanical voice suddenly went off wildly.

The ghost was stunned.

His hand froze in mid-air as he stared at the screen in disbelief.

"Impossible! This is a completely physically isolated military intranet; how could he possibly get in!"

Before he could react...

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound of electricity being cut off echoed in the empty underground machine room.

Followed by.

All the server indicator lights, the overhead incandescent bulbs, even the sound of the exhaust fans.

In the same second.

It was completely, thoroughly, and completely extinguished!

The entire secret base, hundreds of meters underground, was instantly plunged into absolute darkness where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face!

Dead silence.

A chilling silence.

The ghost sat in the darkness, his heart pounding violently as if it would burst from his chest.

What happened?

What about backup power? What about a standby generator set?

Why is there not even the slightest sign of it starting up?

Just when he was terrified.

The monitor in front of him, which should have been powered off, suddenly lit up faintly.

There is no startup screen, and no operating system.

There was only a pure black screen.

In the very center of the screen, there is extremely glaring white text.

A line of pinyin was slowly typed out:

"Turn off the lights and go to sleep, you're welcome."

"ah--!"

The ghost stared at the line of pinyin, which was full of sarcasm.

Feeling the cold, deathly silence around me, the darkness was like a tomb.

He finally broke down.

He buried his head in his hands and let out a desperate and mournful cry in the endless darkness.

he knows.

The other party not only easily destroyed his attack, but also went through the network cable and directly seized control of the entire city's power grid!

Furthermore, they precisely cut off all power to the base and even locked the backup power supply startup program!

What terrifying, what incredible, god-level technology this is!

Faced with this force.

His hacking skills, which he was very proud of, and his glorious record of breaching the Pentagon.

It's like a baby who has just learned addition and subtraction trying to challenge the gods who control the laws of the universe!

"A monster...that's a monster..."

The ghost slumped into the chair, tears streaming uncontrollably down her face.

Huaxia, Future Technology Building.

Zhang Huaimin looked at the screen and saw the confirmation that the power outage had been successfully completed.

Satisfied, I unplugged the black USB drive.

"Done."

He stretched and turned to take the still-warm roasted duck leg from Chen Bing's hand.

"Brother Chen, your takeout is getting cold. Hurry back to your office and eat it."

Zhang Huaimin took a big bite of duck meat, his mouth dripping with oil.

It was as if the feat of crossing half the globe and paralyzing a secret military base was less important than the roast duck leg in his hand.

Looking at Zhang Huaimin's nonchalant demeanor, Chen Bing couldn't help but swallow.

Although he didn't understand computers, he could tell from the way those technical experts looked at Zhang Huaimin as if he were a god.

he knows.

This five-and-a-half-year-old little devil, on the unseen battlefield, once again rubbed the foreign devils to the ground a hundred times.

At this time.

The headquarters building of the Mitsubishi conglomerate in Tokyo, Japan.

Like a trapped beast, Ichiro Sato paced anxiously back and forth in his office.

"Any news from Ghost? Has Future Technology's network crashed?"

He yelled at his assistant behind him.

The assistant was covered in sweat and his face was as pale as paper.

"Mr. Sato..."

"We just received news from the United States."

"The secret base where the ghost is located... has suddenly experienced a large-scale power outage."

"Not only that, the power grid in their entire city block was also paralyzed."

"The ghost... the ghost..."

The assistant swallowed hard, his voice trembling.

"He's gone mad and has been sent to a mental hospital. He keeps shouting, 'There are monsters in China.'"

"What?!"

Sato Ichiro was struck dumb.

His legs went weak, and he collapsed onto the sofa.

It’s over.

It's completely over.

Short-selling funds have been liquidated, heavy industry companies have been reverse-acquired, and now even the last trump card, "Ghost," has been driven crazy by people using the internet!

All his chips, all his calculations.

In front of that young man named Zhang Huaimin, they were like snowflakes under the scorching sun, melting away without leaving a trace.

"Baka! Baka yarou!"

Extreme fear and despair instantly transformed into hysterical madness.

Sato Ichiro suddenly stood up and overturned the coffee table in front of him.

The precious tea set was shattered on the floor.

His bloodshot eyes flashed with a frenzied killing intent, a desire to take everyone down with him.

"Since you're not giving me a way out."

"Then nobody should live!"

Sato Ichiro roared through gritted teeth.

"Book me the next available flight to Beijing!"

"I'm going to meet this Zhang Huaimin myself!"

"Even if I die, I'll drag him down with me!"
