Chapter 135: Chapter 135: Hacker_1

Hackers.

Two words immediately surfaced in Lu Xiang’s mind.

With the level of Tesla Technology’s technology, it would not randomly malfunction this way. Therefore, it’s most likely that a hacker had uploaded a virus in some way, changing the data of the bionic individuals which led to the current rebellion.

Actually, hacker defense technology has always been a project that the United Government highly emphasizes.

In core cities where bionic technology is well-developed, there are almost riots induced by bionic individuals every year. Even military-grade bionic individuals have been controlled by hackers to launch attacks against the United Government Army.

It’s just that in relatively poor cities like District 17 where bionic technology is not widely used, the elite hackers who have sky-high rewards on their heads seldom visit.

Yet now, they could be certain that the hacker they’re faced with this time is a master among masters, and is not someone casually hired. Anyone capable of breaking Tesla Technology’s security system would be worthy of rewards in the seven figures at least.

"Doug, halt the use of all armored floating cars provided by Tesla Technology immediately, and make sure all exoskeleton armor are also turned off."

After Lu Xiang gave the order, since hackers could hack into Tesla Technology’s security system and rewrite the program of bionic individuals to attack company employees, they could most certainly hack into the operating systems of armored floating cars and exoskeleton armor. She didn’t want to be interrupted by a sudden rocket launch from a floating car outside while she was in mid-speech.

Captain Doug, apparently recognizing the seriousness of the situation, turned pale and hurriedly headed downstairs with heavy steps. Today, they had received twelve sets of exoskeleton armors, and all of his excited brothers didn’t even go home. They were all gathered in the armory, testing the performance of the new equipment in turns.

Even after he completed his tasks, he didn’t want to take off the high-tech equipment.

When Captain Doug left, Lu Xiang moved forward a step, and locked the door again.

There’s likely another reason for the hacker attack on Tesla Technology.

Given the distribution of forces of the Rebel Army, it’s challenging to send a squad to confront Lieyang directly. Perhaps the Twelfth Nation had assumed this, which was why they only sent Lieyang alone for help in the territory of the United Government.

But if their opponent was a hacker, matters could turn out differently.

"There has always been a delicate relationship between the prosthetic implantation and hackers, especially those who have implanted operating systems. If a hacker finds a way to rewrite the system, they could effortlessly paralyze the operating system of the implanted individuals, causing them to fall unconscious."

The hacker who had rewritten Tesla Technology’s system was likely specially dispatched by the Rebel Army to deal with Lieyang.

Once her operating system was paralyzed, even the most expensive prosthetics would be ineffective.

"You’ll see, my foresight was really great when I didn’t get the prosthetic implantation before!"

Song Lan always felt that there was something off with prosthetic implantation. The prospects of having an operating system installed right into his brain was frightening. If the operating system were to be breached by a hacker, wouldn’t he be rendered powerless regardless of his capabilities? To him, prosthetic implantation brought no positive effects; instead, it would add a weak spot for no good reason.

Ultimately, he didn’t trust the United Government which held the ultimate authority to interpret this technology.

"Yeah, if you had told me earlier about your amazing skills, I wouldn’t have spent that money."

"Director Lu, when did you learn to be sarcastic?"

"Is it you or me?"

Without answering his question, Lu Xiang looked straight at Song Lan. Naturally, she was referring to the role of the "enthusiastic citizen".

"I’ll go. You stay and watch the Princess of the Fallen Kingdom. She’s so impulsive that she might run over to cause trouble as soon as she learns that the Rebel Army might be behind the attack on Tesla Technology."

Song Lan thought for a while before saying.

Since the Rebel Army dared to hack into Tesla Technology’s security system today, they must have prepared to deal with Lieyang. Yet, this Princess of the Fallen Kingdom didn’t seem like the exceptionally intelligent type.

She would likely suffer a significant loss if she rashly encounters the Rebel Army.

As he spoke, Song Lan pulled out his mobile phone and all his electronic equipment and handed them one by one to Lu Xiang. "Moreover, I am a nightmare to hackers."

Without carrying any electronic device now, what can even the best hackers do to him?

"However, I have a condition."

"You can proceed."

"A day off tomorrow. I need a good sleep."

"Granted, you may go."

Looking at the retreating figure of Song Lan, she turned her attention to the mobile phone that he had handed to her. Looking at the dark screen, she suddenly remembered something.

She entered the password she had memorized earlier, unlocked the screen, and opened the phone’s memo.

At this moment, the phrase that Song Lan had stealthily entered earlier revealed itself before her eyes.

"Invincible Universe’s Piercing Palm"

...

Looking at these few large words, Lu Xiang felt as if her heartbeat missed a beat. Without having a thorough look at the detailed description of the skill, she exited the memo and locked the screen again.

By the time she finished these operations, her palms were sweaty.

The news about Tesla Technology’s hacker attack didn’t excite her as much as this did.

She finally understood Song Lan’s unusual reaction earlier.

Well,

She didn’t see anything just now.

After placing Song Lan’s electronic devices into her bag, she tidied up her messy thoughts due to the shock, took a deep breath, and headed towards the meeting room where Lieyang was.

...........................

A moment later, Song Lan in a black coat stood outside the building of Tesla Technology.

From his recollection, Tesla Technology’s building was well-lit 24/7. It was said that it was because bionic individuals would take over the work after employees went off duty, working overtime through the night. But tonight, the entire building was plunged into darkness.

Even without any electronic devices to rely on, he could perceive all the details within this building with his ability.

Spiritual energy like a tidal wave ascended the steps, spreading towards the interior of the building.

No matter where the hacker or assassin was hiding...

But such thoughts didn’t last long. A wave of nausea overwhelmed him, distracting him from focusing on his thoughts.

Five minutes later, the restroom door on the first floor was kicked open, and an infuriated Song Lan stormed in.

This abrupt sound scared the man hiding in the restroom into stillness. He held his original pose - back facing the mirror, butt exposed, and trying hard to turn his head around.

"What are you doing here!"

This was the main reason why Song Lan found it hard to concentrate.

Whenever he tried to spread out his spiritual sense, he would perceive this situation in meticulous detail.

In response to his question, the man in the restroom finally responded. Overwhelmed with joy, he didn’t even care about his exposed butt. He was about to shake Song Lan’s hand when he stood up.

"Back off."

Song Lan coldly stopped him.

"It’s the ’enthusiastic citizen’, the ’enthusiastic citizen’ has come to save us!"

The man was ecstatic. "I’m the director of the Department of Biological Technology. There was a sudden rebellion in the biological exhibition area, and my butt was cut by the rebelling bionic individuals in the chaos!"
