Chapter 370: Smith Debut

Then they ignored the Elite Spitter whose ankles were crippled and entered the database.

With the presence of the hacker Max, they quickly got the building blueprint from the server, then they realized that they thought too simple of this place.

If they wanted to sneak into the building through the normal way, they had to face many traps and mechanisms. This would be a huge trouble for them, and they might be discovered at any time.

So, the best way to get to the 20th floor or above was to go to the 18th floor first, then climb out of the window directly to the 22nd floor!

Why not climb from the 19th floor to the 20th floor? This was because the surface of this building was actually equipped with a new type of sensor developed by SPX Corporation!

This kind of sensor could be understood as a high-end intelligent camera, which was in a dormant state at ordinary times. It would only be turned on immediately when there was an abnormal situation nearby.

It could accurately distinguish whether it was birds, humans, bullets or other climbing equipment that triggered the alarm, and this new sensor would also link with the rest of the defense system.

When someone climbed the outer wall and was in mid-air, the armed drones would be dispatched to attack it. The outer wall of the building would also be electrified.

However, Max found out from the maintenance records of the building that the department in charge of the sensors reported for repairs last week, but 2 of them were not repaired due to lack of components, so this loophole appeared.

It was just that this so-called loophole was almost impossible for normal humans to exploit.

One had to stand on a 50 meters tall landing point that was less than half of the sole of the foot, then jumped directly 5 meters away. The final landing point was only a palm-sized open space. What’s more, he couldn’t damage any surrounding things.

Max had no problem jumping over, so it depended on whether Fang Linyan could jump over.

After Fang Linyan looked at the environment there for a while, he said that there was no problem. He had enough confidence to solve this problem.

So they quickly reached the 18th floor, quickly climbed the outer wall, and soon came to this place that required a risky jump.

Max jumped over with ease. It could be seen that he should be the kind of experienced rock climber.

But Fang Linyan used a method that made him dumbfounded, that was, he jumped out with one easy step, but judging from where he was about to land, he was still 3 meters away.

Just when Max thought Fang Linyan had cold feet, he saw him tapped in midair! It was like the “double jump” in the game, borrowing strength out of thin air, then he jumped up very lightly.

This was equivalent to dividing a distance of more than 5 meters into 2 jumps, which was not difficult even for ordinary people.

Seeing this scene, Max couldn’t help being amazed. He directly asked Fang Linyan what was going on. Fang Linyan just smiled and waved, then a black [Drone] flew over not far away.

This was the [Drone] summoned by Fang Linyan. It came with a camouflage protection color. Although it couldn’t carry people to fly, it was still possible to temporarily be a foothold for Fang Linyan.

Just now, Fang Linyan stepped on it in mid-air to borrow the force, although the [Drone] descended a little, he gained enough strength to jump to the platform.

Afterward, they followed the route Max found out and successfully climbed into the 22nd floor.

The area they entered was the bathroom, but they couldn’t go out of the bathroom ostentatiously, because there were 2 surveillance cameras aiming at the door of the bathroom without blind spots. If they went out directly, they would trigger the alarm.

And WIFI was completely eliminated here, so the means used on the lower floors could no longer be used here.

Fortunately, Max had already thought of a way to sneak in. Since surveillance cameras were set up on the regular paths, and the security method is very strict, it couldn’t be circumvented by sabotage.

Then, they could just take the unusual path.

Max pointed his shoulder at the partition wall of the washroom and exerted a sudden force. This wall was not a load-bearing wall, so it immediately collapsed in face of Max’s 40 strength. The bricks and dust were scattered all over the place. A door was opened forcibly here.

Of course, the people who built the building did not expect that someone would intrude in such a way, so they the office next door without any danger.

Here, Max found a USB data cable access port. After inserting a USB flash drive, he waved his hand, summoned a virtual keyboard in mid-air, and began to invade the internal network.

However, about 5 minutes later, Fang Linyan suddenly smelled a smell of burnt plastic. After a closer look, he found that the smoke actually came the USB flash drive inserted by Max!

Not only that, the loudspeaker in the office actually sounded an indifferent electronic voice,

“Warning, traces of suspected intrusion have been found in this area.”

“Warning, traces of suspected intrusion have been found in this area.”

“The self-check program will start in 10 seconds!”

“The self-check program is initiating. Please do not use the intranet, telephone and other communication equipment in this room. If the self-check program fails, it will enter the level 2 alert mode!”

“10?”

“10,”

“9?”

“9,”

Obviously, Max screwed it up. Fang Linyan was about to comfort him, but then he saw Max take out another USB drive.

The appearance of this USB drive looked very strange. The surface was still shining light green light continuously, and there were digital codes of 0 and 1 constantly appearing and disappearing on the surface. It didn’t look like a USB drive at all, but a piece of intangible data that was not real.

Max just put the thing into the socket, then it slid right in instantly.

Then after Max did this, he didn’t operate anymore. He dragged a stool beside him and sat down, then he found an unopened can of Coke on the desk next to him. He opened it, raised it head, and drank it.

Fang Linyan was very surprised after seeing this scene. When he was about to speak, he noticed a strange thing.

Almost 3 seconds after the thing slid into the socket, the synthetic electronic sound that was counting down in the office actually stopped.

After Max drank a mouthful of Coke, he pointed his finger into the air, and a virtual 3D modeling of the building appeared immediately.

Immediately, it could be seen that starting from the room where they stayed, a red dot had begun to spread rapidly, like a plague spreading along the intranet crazily toward every corner of the building!

Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan said in amazement,

“What did you just put in there?”

Max said,

“It’s a virus I bought at a high price, or it should be the life of the network virtualization ***software.”

Fang Linyan wondered,

“What it is?”

Max said,

“The seller said that they brought it from a place called Zion. Its name is Smith. The virus they sold to me was actually sliced from the clone of Smith in the virtual world! It is said that it is half a toe of the clone.”

“I can’t control this virus at all, and I can only receive limited information from it. Its instinct is to destroy and multiply. I have never seen such a brutal and violent virus before.”

“You know, it gives me the feeling of a wildfire in Australia that has spread for thousands of miles, then it met with a dry and frantic hurricane! It seems to destroy everything in the network!”

Fang Linyan stared at the 3D modeling of the building Max summoned and laughed,

“Then didn’t you pay a huge cost in this?”

Max said,

“It’s fine. Once the virus is released, it will be completely uncontrollable, so it is equivalent to a consumable item.”

Fang Linyan said,

“Then wouldn’t it mean that the network of the whole world will be destroyed by it?”

Max said,

“No, didn’t I just say that? This virus should be called a virtual life. Its own vitality is limited, and it belongs to another world. It cannot be supplemented here, so in the end, when the multiplication reaches a certain level, it will exhaust its vitality and die.”

While they were chatting, the firewall software that SPX Corporation was proud of had collapsed under the attack of Smith Virus.

In fact, in the duty room of SPX Corporation at this time, a group of software engineers was frantically typing on the keyboards, especially the security director was desperately trying to strengthen the firewall, but all this was of no avail.

This was an absolute sense of technological domination and dimensional crushing!!

Wherever the Smith Virus passed, there was a mess. Its essence was destruction! Destroy!

The electronic gate originally designed to require multiple security checks was directly destroyed, unlocking it. The restricted areas that originally had many locked programs were unlocked one by one!! The alarm notifications leading to the outside world were all disintegrated. Even communication was completely blocked.

In a word, the things that the designer intended to protect were all accessible; the things that the designer wanted to imprison were all released; the things that the designer wanted to suppress were all unleashed.

In this case, Fang Linyan and Max easily obtained the structural blueprint of 20 floors above, and they quickly found the place they wanted to go.

That was the president’s office. According to the information obtained, there was a private computer that the president usually used. It only went online when necessary. In other times, it was physically disconnected.

TL: Wouldn’t they be noticed by other contractors for causing such a huge commotion?
