Chapter 665: Surrender
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the same time, the entire Stick Nation's network descended into chaos once more.
The Y-virus was no longer making its own link, but instead lodging itself into the links on other sites.
At first everyone had learned their lesson not to click on those weird new links. However, they habitually clicked into familiar links like Baidu, Google, and some other trusted sites. Nevertheless, they were still affected.
The Stick Nation...
The Computing Center was once again forced to sound the S-grade alarm.
The Y-virus was suspected to have mutated and spread once again. They originally thought they have finally found a way to get rid of it. However, renewing the virus database was of no help. This time, the announcement warned the Stick Nation's citizens not to enter any websites, even the official websites!
Unfortunately, the warning came too late. The current Y-virus caught them off guard and countless people already fell for that trick!
Who would have thought the sites that were previously fine would suddenly infect them with a virus the moment they enter?
On the Stick Nation's network, tens of thousands of people posted angry comments!
[F*ck! How did the Y-virus come back?]
[Damn it, I got infected. This is just so sad!]
[Didn't they claim to have found a solution? Why did this happen?]
[What's the experts in our country doing?]
[This time it's even worse than before. We can't even access any websites. I really need to disconnect my internet cable at this rate.]
[Hacker Y is too mean. How can you do this? What did I do to you?]
Just a moment ago, they were celebrating for finding a solution to the Y-virus. The very next instant, a mutated virus appeared. That was beyond all their expectations.
Within the Stick Nation's Computing Center, everyone was overwhelmed with work, scratching their heads around the topic of the Y-virus.
"Just how was this virus created? Did it mutate by itself, or was that part of its program?"
"Hacker Y's skills are really too great. If he can create such a virus, it means he's capable of writing a self evolving program?"
They looked at each other. Just what did writing such a program signified? Artificial intelligence! It would automatically evolve and improve itself. That was just terrifying.
The next instant, someone shook his head, denying it. "Impossible! I think it should be coded to be so when Hacker Y first created the virus. A self evolving virus is not that simple. Didn't you notice? Our newest firewall is still quite useful at suppressing the spread of the virus."
"I don't think it's evolving either. This should be programmed by Hacker Y. He must've set two different instructions, the first is to infiltrate and spread, while the second instruction was to go into hiding. Just as we thought he had cleared the virus, the one hiding in the network reappeared and lodged itself on various sites. However, this level of skill is unheard of!"
"No matter how you put it, he's clearly targeting us!"
"Whatever it is, we should hurry up and research this. We must solve this evolved virus within two hours and update the virus database! Otherwise the personal computers that are affected would only grow more and more out of control!"
A middle-aged man declared urgently, "It's already uncontrollable. I've just received news that the number of infected computers are over a million, and it's still growing!"
"The network coverage is too wide. This is like the snowball effect, growing bigger by the second!"
"Alright, cut the crap and do your research quickly!"
The Stick Nation was once again in a dire situation as the infection rate was even worse than before.
The cause for that was because they felt that things were solved after renewing the antivirus software and upgraded the virus database. Just as they let their guard down, it allowed the Y-virus to spread even faster.
Nevertheless, in just half an hour, the Stick Nation's research team had dark expressions.
It was too difficult. This Y-virus was nowhere to be found. They felt that the virus Hacker Y wrote was not in the same dimension as them. In fact, they have no idea how the virus managed to lodge itself to the address of various trusted websites.
Within the Stick Nation Computing Center, the experts and hackers were watching the Y-virus in despair. All they felt was helplessness.
Their skills were no match, absolutely outranked!
They finally realized what kind of godly figure they offended.
One should know that Hacker Y did not keep watch over them since the beginning. He had merely created a virus and dumped it in their country's network. It was as though Hacker Y had put in no effort while their own people were trying their absolute hardest, yet were unable to figure out the concept, much less decode the virus.
China lacked good hackers?
China's computing skills were bad?
Now that they looked back, their statements were absolute bullsh*t. Moreover, they were given a big fat slap by Hacker Y.
Although the Y-virus' initial spread was fast and threw them off, it was not unstoppable. However, that was merely the beginning. The unexpected part was the second form of the Y-virus.
It lodged itself on the network, making it impossible for them to wipe it away. Did that mean the entire country would have to go offline?
[Oh god! This is impossible!]
[What can we do?]
[Solve this quickly!]
[How to solve it? Our brainpower is insufficient!]
[The initial solution to the Y-virus took us two days and nights. Moreover this time it became even harder to deal with. Both types of program seem to be totally different.]
[Damn that Hacker Y!]
[All the websites are inaccessible. We can't stop this virus from spreading!]
[OMG, we've suffered a huge loss this time.]
The entire Stick Nation was wailing, all of them on the verge of breaking down.
At that moment, the Stick Nation went silent!
Murica, England, and the rest of the world went silent!
International hacking experts were all following this incident. At first they thought the incident was done with. None had expected such a great plot twist would happen toward the end.
Everyone was shocked. That Hacker Y was truly a devil in human form, extremely terrifying. His skills were leagues beyond all of them.
They thought it was already a spectacular feat for him to create the Y-virus with such a great destructive power that required an entire country to counter. Who would have thought it would have a second setting that was impossible to solve?!
That was too scary. This type of person should never be offended. They could not afford to!
On the desktop of the infected computers, just like before, all the icons on its display turned into Y. Below the letter was written, [Those who humiliate China must be taken down no matter how far away they may be!]
All the hackers of the Stick Nation were speechless!
Those icons were extremely difficult to look at. With such a terrifying character, they would not dare think of vengeance in this life.
Two days passed with the blink of an eye.
Early in the morning, Ye Lingchen had completed his training and walked out of the forest with a gloomy expression.
'Slow!'
'The progress is too slow!'
He was extremely dissatisfied with his current training progress. When he trained in the past, he would see major improvement everyday. However, right now, he would be stuck in the same state for multiple days!
Just then, Hao Yun ran toward him excitedly. Her beautiful face flushed red as she exclaimed excitedly, "God Ye, the Stick Nation surrendered!"
