Chapter 222 Information Tower
Chapter 222 Information Tower
?
'System, you are indeed an almighty system. Angel, you are a good guide as well. So, you'll have to make sure that you maintain your image as the best system guide.' Jack chuckled as he flattered.
No sooner had Jack completed what he was saying than he received another system's prompt that made his expression turn.
[Changes have now been made. Now, there will be things that the host will have to find out all by himself by testing them out. Although the host might receive the system's guide tips, it is not something that happen.]
[This is all so that the host can put in more effort and work harder.]
Jack was fuming at this point. What the system was basically saying was that it would no longer give him the hints like the one that he had just received previously. If he didn't receive such important hints, how was he supposed to exploit the system to the limit.
After all, although it was true that there was an introduction when he received the system, he didn't know about all the features that the system had. Jack had to complain about this as well. 'Angel, you are not serious about what you are telling me right? There are things that I definitely don't even know about. So, how am I supposed to exploit this gap at all?'
[There have already been changes that have already been made by the system. And among the changes is the fact that the system will no longer compromise in its decisions. As such, you shouldn't expect that the system will make any changes at all.]
[Just as it was stated before, you'll have to exploit the system features on your own from now on. To get any more clues on what you are supposed to do, you will have to upgrade the level of your authority to the second level. In this way, there will be a lot of things that you can finally access from the system]
Jack didn't give up. He had lost quite a lot of things due to the changes that the system had made. Although he had gained two slots for the skills, he didn't think that this was enough compensation for all that he was losing.
But before he could even say a word, the system beat him to it.
[You shouldn't ask about how you are supposed to gain the knowledge on what you are supposed to do. You are supposed to exploit the system on your own. And the best means to do that would be for you to work hard in earning more money. Remember, there are always first income rewards that come every first time that you earn the money from different activities.]
Jack understood what the system was trying to imply to him. Just like the way that he had gotten the free skill slot that he could select a skill of his liking, he could as well engage himself in the activities that would make him earn money from those fields. In this way, he could gain several slots
And as he utilized them, he would come to realize that he would be getting better skills as long as he had the slots for a long period of time.
But still, to Jack, this was nothing than a waste of the precious skill slots that he would be receiving. 'Is there really no other way for me to work harder while still receiving the hints about what I'm supposed to do?' Jack asked for the last time.
[No compromise about this host. The changes have already been made and there is no way that another change is going to be made without any specific reasonable reason.]
In the end, Jack could only sigh as he set aside the thoughts about making the system change the decision that it had made. But, he had already made a resolution at that moment.
Since the system wanted him to work harder, then that was just what he was going to do. He was going to make sure that he abused the system to the limits that it could allow. And maybe if possible, he would surpass the limits that it would set for him.
All this while, he had been so lenient with the system. He would now have to make sure that all the features that could be used in the first level of his authority was used. In this way, he would be able to fulfill the final condition of upgrading his authority to the second level.
'I have already fulfilled the condition that I'm supposed to have a girlfriend, right?' Jack asked in his mind.
[That's right. Two of the three conditions have already been fulfilled. The only remaining condition that has yet to be fulfilled is the one that concerns the five companies under you.]
With the confirmation from the system, he could now focus on what he had originally intended on doing. That was dealing with Collins' family.
Since they were not his competitors but his enemies, he wasn't ready to play with them at all. He was going to use the method that he would find the easiest and fastest in dealing with them.
The first thing that he would have to do would be to get all the information that he could get on them. He had to make sure that he got the information about their wealth, backing and so on.
That's right, he had decided that he would destroy any backing of theirs that would try to get themselves involved in this. It didn't matter to him who it was. Even if it was the government, the current one could always be replaced by another in a democratic country like Azima.
So, he took the laptop and placed it on his lap. What followed that was that he began typing several codes. With the help of the muscle memory plus the memories that had been ingrained in his mind, he was fast enough to right several lines of codes in just a matter of seconds.
Of course, the high speed was also due to the high speed that came with the professional combat ability plus the boost of taking the body strengthening solution.
Jack continued typing on the laptop and slowly but surely, he was able to break through several firewalls and the information about Collins and his family were revealed to him. Just to note, Jack didn't start hacking from blank. Instead, he had already gotten several pieces of information about Collins and his family.
With all this information in place, he was able to get the information that he wanted easily. Had he had not been having these pieces of information, he would have been forced to take the longest route to get all this information.
Jack had decided that he was going to use the shortest means possible to destroy Collins' family. So, to get all the information about them as fast as possible, he had decided to go to the place where all the information about the citizens was stored.
It was referred to as the information tower. This was a company that was reputed to be having the most information about each and every citizen in the country. But of course, this wasn't a private company, instead, it was owned and controlled by the government's ministry of public information.
As expected, all the servers of the company were protected tightly by several firewalls that were created by the best of the best experts in net security in the country. The servers were protected tightly because, once the information that was contained in the information tower fell into the hands of an enemy country, the situation of the country wouldn't be good.
After all, with all these pieces of information, they could do a lot of things, blackmailing would also be included. And this in itself could be used to cause internal strife while the enemies attacked from the outside.
Still, these walls that these experts were so proud of, the walls that had never been breached before, were easily infiltrated by Jack in a matter of seconds. And to make matters worse, all the alarms that they had set up so that they would be warned in case there was an infiltration failed to detect him at all.
As such, Jack accessed the servers and got all the information that he wanted to get. After that, he left as if he was never there before, changing nothing at all.
With all the information in hand, Jack began working again. He began looking into the deals that involved the company that was owned by Collins' family.
Since he wanted to acquire all the shares of the canned food company that was owned by Collins' family, he had to make sure that they didn't go bankrupt. That would be a loss to him.
What he was going to do was to simply ruin the reputation of the company. He would make sure that they would see that the company was going to fail. In this way, he would force them to sell it. But of course, he would buy the company at the least price possible. This was his way of dealing with things.
And since all of this involved Celine, he was going to make Celine the owner of the company. And after clearing the name of the company, he would let her view the path that she would like to have it develop towards.
With this thought in mind, jack began making his moves. The first ones would of course to make sure that the reputation of the company went down the drain. And unlike how Denali had dealt with the companies that were owned by the Alfonso family, where they asked several people to pretend or those that had really suffered to come out, he was going to do all the work by himself.
And, he was going to do all of this from the comfort of his villa. With the laptop, he began hacking into several media platforms before he began doing the posting of all the information that he had gotten.
Even he himself was surprised by all the dirty information that he had found on the company alone. And to make matters worse, this wasn't the only company that was owned by Collins' family. They were involved in others as well through the ownership of shares. All of this was what Jack had to deal with.
Jack had to agree that there was no way that a snake could be born by a cow or a goat. Just like how vicious Collins was, his parents were the same. So, jack had no intention of being merciful to them at all.
