Chapter 1487: The Great Hacker War!

Translator: Legge  Editor: Legge

On this very day.

On Weibo.

The people were all fervently discussing.

“How is God 2 doing?”

“I don’t know.”

“I think she’s been taken into custody, and the investigations are ongoing.”

“I feel that there should be amnesty given.”

“Yes. In the Sino-Korean Hacker War, it was clearly the Korean hackers who started the large-scale attack first, and God 2 was forced to retaliate. Why didn’t the Koreans investigate their hackers first before coming over to latch onto our people? They’re such bastards! If I were from the Internet Surveillance Bureau, I would pretend not to know anything nor arrest my own people.”

“Well said. When God 2 joined the war back then, all of the world’s hackers got so frightened by her. All sorts of evil spirits, demons, monsters, and thieving bastards were scared off by her. Just look, have there been any foreign hackers who dared to show up and flaunt themselves in China in the past few years? Not even a single one them dared to do so. If they arrest God 2 for bringing harm to cybersecurity, I’ll be the first to protest. God 2’s existence is a deterrent itself, and it alone is enough to improve cybersecurity.”

“Ah, this is bad!”

“What happened?”

“Our government’s website has been hacked!”

“What?”

“Look at this, the largest forum in China is no longer accessible!”

“Are those fellas at it again?”

“What the heck!”

One!

Five!

Ten!

Twenty!

The Chinese websites were gradually paralyzed by the attacks. It was happening at an alarming rate.

The attack this time was too sudden and had caught everyone off guard!

…

At a supermarket.

“Shit!”

“The cash registers have crashed!”

“We can’t handle transactions anymore.”

“It’s the hackers!”

…

At a school.

“Teacher, what’s wrong?”

“Everyone, do some self-studying for now. There’s something wrong with the computer.”

“Teacher, why has the screen gone dark?”

“The school’s network has been hacked!”

…

At a company.

“Ah, the computers are all down!”

“We’ve been infected with a trojan horse!”

“What is this?”

“A Korean flag?”

“It’s the Korean hackers!”

…

Overseas.

Korea. In a chat group.

“It’s started.”

“Alright, let’s execute the plan as previously discussed.”

“Don’t worry.”

“Haha, I’ve already taken down three sites.”

“I’ve taken down four sites. The Chinese network is too vulnerable!”

“We can finally take our revenge for what happened!”

“2 has been taken into custody. There isn’t anyone in China who can stop us anymore!”

“Everyone, attack!”

…

Overseas.

America.

“The Koreans have made their move.”

“They finally couldn’t sit idle.”

“It looks like they’ve been enduring the shame for too long.”

“With 2 as a deterrent, very few foreign hackers have targeted China in recent years. I myself haven’t messed around in China for a long time as well. Why don’t we go and have a look too?”

“Haha, alright!”

“I’m gonna join in for the fun of it too!”

…

Overseas.

Japan.

“China has been hit by hackers.”

“It’s such a major attack?”

“Is it the Koreans?”

“Why are the Americans getting involved as well?”

“With 2 in custody, it looks like a lot of people are itching to target the Chinese network again.”

“Let’s join in as well then.”

“Alright, let’s assemble with the others!”

…

At the Chinese Internet Surveillance Bureau.

“Director Dong, this is bad!”

“The number of hackers has increased again!”

“The Japanese have joined in as well!”

“And the Americans too!”

“Why is this happening?”

“We can’t hold them off!”

…

Attacked by hackers from multiple countries!

Countless websites went dark!

Countless websites were crippled!

This was clearly an organized and premeditated hacker attack!

Korean, America, Japan, France, and many other countries’ hacker groups had joined in this operation. The Korean hackers were taking revenge for the Panda Burning Incense virus that raged through their country, while the other countries’ hackers were just here to be part of the action. Right now, the whole world’s cybersecurity industry had its attention on the capture of Hacker 2, so it was a good opportunity for a lot of hackers to show what they could do. Fame was equally important to a hacker as well.

Thus, another grand hacker war began!

The Chinese hackers fought back but kept getting defeated and pushed back!

The opponent’s faction was too large. They had too many people on their side, with people like America’s John, Korea’s Sun, and France’s Joseph, who were all ranked among the top twenty hackers in the world. Meanwhile, the Chinese side could not even muster enough people. The highest-ranked hackers, FAN and 2, were now thought to be the same person and was being held in custody for investigations. Don’t even mention getting on the Internet or touching a computer. All of her freedom was restricted at this moment. In the end, they still needed a big brother of the Chinese cybersecurity world to step out of retirement and get involved. The 41-year-old Li Weidong was given the responsibility of leading a team of Chinese hackers to face the attacks.

“We can’t hold them off anymore!”

“Dammit!”

“Those bastards! Who do they think they are!”

“Charge!”

“We have to take them down even if we die!”

This war continued being fought for three days and three nights!

The multinational hacker army kept assaulting!

The Chinese hacker army was overstretched!

An American flag!

A Japanese flag!

A Korean flag!

All of them started appearing one after another on the Chinese Internet!

In the end, even the network of the Chinese Internet Surveillance Bureau’s office was brought down for a while! The war was completely one-sided, and many of the citizens’ daily lives were severely affected. They couldn’t log on to the online forums they frequented, or encountered problems with paying for items when trying to make purchases, or the companies’ computers were collectively infected with viruses and became inoperable, etc.

No one thought that it would be this serious!

Very few hacker wars in history had been this large scale, and this one was caused by one particular incident—the exposure of legendary hacker 2’s identity!

At this moment, the entire world’s attention was on China!

…

On the other side.

At Old Wu’s parents’ courtyard house.

Wu Zeqing was sitting in the yard admiring the moon.

Zhang Ye walked over with his hands behind his back. “What else is there? What else do we need for the child?”

He always had the feeling that he hadn’t done something!

He always had the feeling that he hadn’t left instructions for something!

“Everything is in order,” Wu Zeqing said.

Zhang Ye waved his hands. “No, there must be something that I forgot.”

Wu Zeqing said, “That’s enough. You’ve already bought all that needs to be bought.”

Zhang Ye sighed and then sat down. “Is that right?”

Wu Zeqing reached out and adjusted his shirt collar. The collar was not actually crooked, but Old Wu always liked doing this. “It’s good enough.”

Zhang Ye gave a bitter smile. “Yeah, I guess it’s good enough.”

At this moment, Wu Changhe shouted from the house, “Little Ye, why can’t I get into the Go server? Why is there also a Korean flag showing on it?”

Zhang Ye raised his head and shouted back, “It was probably attacked by hackers.”

Wu Changhe said, “Those foreigners, they’re all crazy! I can’t even play Go now!”

Li Qinqin’s voice also rang out, “Hai, what’s with our country? Is there no one who can take them on?”

Zhang Ye said, “Hacking has a very secretive nature to it. Our country has limited strength in this area, and the hacker groups have free rein. With so many hackers from so many countries joining forces, it will definitely be very difficult to cope with in the short term.”

Wu Changhe said angrily, “So many days have gone by. Are we just going to continue allowing them to be so arrogant?”

Zhang Ye looked at his wife. “Old Wu?”

Wu Zeqing smiled. “Like I’ve said, I’ll support whatever you do.”

Zhang Ye also smiled. He looked up at the moon.

It was very round.

It was very bright.

And it was very beautiful.

He had said all that he needed to say.

He had made clear everything that needed to be done.

Then before I go, let me again do a little something for everyone.
