Chapter 91: Blow Them All!

Mr. Ma looked at him and asked in an eager tone while trying to hide his excitement.

"Oh, where have you seen it."

No 2 scratched his head in embarrassment and replied.

"Boss, remember the case a few months ago, where a lot of video surveillance data was stolen from a police database. Since those guys were unable to find anything, we had to go and do their work. While checking their system, we found pretty high tech penetration traces. I did not notice it before, but after this guy started to fight back, I suddenly got a familiar feeling."

Mr. Ma nodded, though he was a little disappointed to hear this, he calmed himself down and asked.

"So, in your words, this guy is the same person who hacked the police database."

No. 2 nodded and replied with a confident tone.

"I was not sure before, but now I clearly remember, and I am 80% sure that this is the same guy."

Mr. Ma nodded. After thinking for a while, he said while smiling.

"I am getting more and more interested in this guy. I really want to get him. If we can get this guy and force him to... I mean, to get him to work for us, then our attack power will improve significantly."

After saying that, they looked toward the Alpha team and then said.

"You guys, get this guy, and I will make sure that all of you get a double salary bonus and a week of paid vacation."

Everyone in the Alpha team smiled when they heard this. They were not happy because of the double salary bonus but because they would get a vacation. Since they were not regular employees but criminals recruited to work for the national agency, they did not get the benefits that a regular employee would get, so this vacation was really great for them.

All of them smiled and replied in unison.

"Yes, boss. We will get him for sure."

After that, they all started to type on their keyboards more furiously.

"Big Brother, they have started to attack with more power. I have only 49 bots left. Do I attack them now?"

Fu Yan shook his head and said.

"No, keep holding. Gather as much data as you can. This is a rare opportunity for you to improve your database."

"Ok, Big Brother. I will do so."

Fu Yan looked at the data streams on the screen and smiled. Since he also knew about hacking, he knew that he was dealing with pros, the best ones on that. That's why he told Qing to keep holding and gather data because there was only so much that he could teach her. So he decided to use this opportunity.

Another hour passed, and when he looked, only 27 bots were remaining, so he decided to end it.

"Ok, Qing, start hacking their computers. Invade them and when the bot count hits 22, burn their computers."

Qing did not reply for a while, and then her robotic voice sounded in the room.

"Ok, Big Brother. I have already hacked half of their computers. There are a total of 14 computers, two servers for computing power, and 1 backup server. Do I blow them all?"

Fu Yan smiled when he heard this and replied while trying to suppress his excitement.

"Ok Qing, After you are done controlling all their computers, blow them all."

In the national agency, Mr. Ma looked at the screen and then towards his team, who were all covered in sweat despite the AC running on full.

"How the hell does this guy have so many bots? We have been trying and trying, but all we are getting are bots. I don't understand how this guy can compete with us all, with this much network lag." No 11 said while wiping sweat from his forehead.

"I am as confused as you are. This guy really is a legend. We have all been attacking him for 2 hours now, but there is no end to this. We got tired while working together, so what about him?" No 5 said while weakly typing on the keyboard. He was tired, and his fingers had started to go numb from all the typing.

No 2 looked at them and said in a weak tone.

"No, I feel that we are getting close. We just need to push a little more, and then we can all rest. I know we can all do this. Together that is." He tried to encourage them all.

They all started to type on their keyboards again, but the atmosphere was still not the same as before. It was a little depressing compared to before.

Mr. Ma looked at all this and did not say anything. He knew that they were all tired, but this was an official duty, and he too had sacrificed himself before being a chief.

There was silence in the room except for the noise of typing. Suddenly this silence was broken by No 8's voice.

"Shit, that guy hacked my computer. I am done. He is on my computer."

Mr. Ma hurried towards his computer and looked at it. After seeing that No 8 could do nothing, he said.

"Ok, shut down your PC, and turn on the other one. Go..." But before he could finish his sentence, another voice sounded in the room.

"Holy S**t, He got into my computer too. Is this guy even human? He suddenly started to attack while defending from all of us."

Then like a chain reaction, everyone started to report that their PC was hacked. When the last member reported that his PC was also hacked, Mr. Ma suddenly roared.

"Cut power to all of the PCs. Shut down them. Unplug the internet cable. Hurry up." But he was too late as a burning smell started to engulf the room.

Suddenly there was a loud bang, and No 8's computer exploded. One by one all computers started to blow up. The capacitors in the system and the power supply were being overcharged, and they exploded. After that high voltage started to fry all circuits on the motherboards, some even caught fire because of the excessive energy.

When the first computer exploded, everyone got away from them and stepped out of the room, which had started to fill with smoke. All this happened in just two minutes, which showed Qing's efficiency at destroying things.

Mr. Ma looked at all this with great shock. Suddenly his body jolted, and he said with a trembling voice.

"Shut down the server room. Cut down its supply. Cut it down. He is going to destroy it."

When he said this, others seemed to awaken from a dream. They hurried towards the switchboard, but they were too late. Small explosions had started to sound in the server room. Then suddenly, the whole area was plunged into darkness. Even the backup supply was cut off, which was the right decision.

After unplugging the external net modem, Mr. Ma ordered them to turn on the power, and then all of them started to assess the damage.

When they opened the server room door, thick smoke came out, which was filled with the smell of burning plastic.

They immediately backed down and let it ventilate for a while. After waiting for 15 minutes, they went inside only to see that most of the racks had smoke coming out of them, and only a few were safe. They survived because the power was cut off, or else this room would have been all burned. Though the fire extinguisher system worked, the foam did not do much as the power surge continued to burn the circuits.

Mr. Ma looked at the destruction and then weakly fell on the chair. He knew he was doomed. This was going to be the most challenging case of his career, and he knew that there was a chance that he might even lose his job.

He sighed and cursed the time when he decided to investigate this matter. At least the aftermath would not have been this severe. But what's done is done.

He leaned back on his chair and closed his eyes.While he was thinking about what to do, his secretary came in and said.

"Sir, we have checked everything, and most of the equipment has been burned, but the good news is that all hard drives are safe and no damage has been done to them. Also, one computer in the room where we were is safe. When we turned the power back on, it started by itself, and a message popped up on it. I think... you should see it yourself." His secretary paused a little while saying the last sentence.

Mr. Ma stood up weakly from his chair and walked towards the room. When he reached there, he saw that everyone from the Alpha team was there and they had surrounded the computer.

When they saw him coming, they stepped aside. Mr. Ma looked towards the computer where something was flashing.
