424 Battle of the gods (2/2)

The most senior member of his tech team looked slightly taken aback at seeing his boss' full confidence in this second hacker. However, as he continued to observe the swift fortification of the system and the repeated failures of the first hacker to access the rest of the data, he concluded that the second hacker might just be one of those legendary god-level hackers.

”Do everything to assist the second hacker. Immediately surrender your access rights to him if needed,” he instructed everyone.

”Yes, sir,” they obeyed.

Jin Liwei nodded in approval.

Later…

”Hahahahaha! Yes! Take that, motherfucker! Can't do anything now, huh? Did you really think that you can just prance inside our company's system like it's your own backyard?! Think again!”

”President, the data breach has stopped at exactly 48%! The first hacker can't access the rest of the data anymore, as they are now tightly sealed and protected by this new rewritten security codes!”

”I want to know who this second hacker is! President, tell us!”

Jin Liwei pretended that he didn't hear them. There was absolutely no way he would tell them that the second hacker was his baby girl.

The employees didn't force him to tell them either. How could they? He was their scary big boss. If they weren't careful, he might just fire them like what he did to their stupid colleague earlier. They started celebrating the second hacker's victory instead. The tense atmosphere relaxed.

However, their celebration was short-lived because the first hacker suddenly switched gears. Perhaps he felt challenged, even angered, by the second hacker's interference. He abandoned his earlier harmless modus operandi and turned malicious instead. He started destroying the rewritten security codes and even tried infecting the system with several destructive computer viruses.

However, the damaged security codes were continuously rewritten and fortified. The computer viruses were also destroyed before they could even infect anything.

Everyone inside the main computer control room felt goosebumps watching such an intense hacking battle right in front of their eyes. However, they were also scared out of their wits because the battleground was Jin Corporation's system itself. If this battle became any more intense, it might just completely obliterate the company's entire system.

”President! Th-this is too dangerous! We can't let this go on any further!”

Jin Liwei pressed his lips into a tight line. ”Just wait. We'll definitely win. I'm sure of it,” he said through gritted teeth.

”A-alright, President…”

”Well, even if we try interfering, what can we do? It's like ants trying to join the battle of the gods. We'll just get squashed to death,” another commented.

”Hai. I guess we'll just have to wait until the battle is over and clean up all the mess afterwards.”

Jin Liwei and his employees were on high alert as they continued to watch the battle between the two hackers. They were anxious and cheered for the second hacker to win.

”You can do it, love,” Jin Liwei whispered.

”Did you say something, President?”

”No. I didn't.”

Observing that battle, the experts in the room determined that the two hackers' skills were on par with each other. The first hacker was growing more and more destructive by the moment, but fortunately, the second hacker was able to counter him while protecting the system at the same time.

Of course, there were unavoidable damage to the system but the second hacker was able to keep it to a bare minimum.

Then suddenly, the battle stopped…or so it seemed.

Since the system was constantly repairing itself, everyone knew that the second hacker was still there. However, the first hacker seemed to disappear into thin air.

”I-is it…over?” one of the youngest members of the IT department asked uncertainly.

”It looks like it. I hope so.”

When five minutes passed without any further activities from the first hacker, the employees finally started allowing themselves to release sighs of relief.

”Finally, it's over!”

But as soon as someone said this, the lights in the room suddenly started blinking. Not only that. A couple of computer monitors blacked out before displaying what looked like a logo of a bird. Some of the employees immediately recognized it and gasped.

Then a high-pitched robotic voice suddenly spoke in English. The creepy singsong tone made the employees shudder.

”Dear Drakon~ Where are you?~ Come out, come out, wherever you are~”
