[Beginning Fake Transmission.]
The first thing that Pat did was to piggyback off the service transmission again, and this time he added a video transmission of the most recent episode of Jujutsu Kaisen. His video began to cause a destructive interference with the system and Pat moved his focus to the module while the NSA was distracted with trying to get their service up again.
Pat broke through the outer shell of the firewall and navigated his way to the central processing system of the module. He got into the system and planted a single file in there. The system had a seventh-generation firewall protecting it, and this firewall was self-regenerating. So if Pat tried to just brute force his way in, he would only meet more resistance.
Instead of trying to brute force his way in with only one system, he was going to use a million nanosystems.
The file that Pat added to the CPU immediately began to multiply itself at an astounding rate. It is a virus that Pat created himself just for the fun of it called DupliKate. This virus was relentless in copying and duplicating itself.
Every copy that it creates is ten times larger than the previous copy, and no matter what sort of method you try to use to make it go down, it will constantly copy itself until it fills up your storage and tears your CPU to shreds.
Once Pat was sure that the firewall was focused on trying to kill DupliKate, he immediately went to work on charging through the blind holes that the firewall left. Pat created backdoor after backdoor. He used rogue IPs and even some real ones that he created and stored within the system, but at every turn, the firewall was there to tear down the backdoor before it could complete itself.
Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack!
Clack! Clack!
A roguish smile appeared on Pat's face as he typed furiously on his keyboard as the battle with the firewall raged on! But as time went on, there was an obvious lag in the firewall's response time as it became oversaturated with both the DupliKate file and the constant barrage of attacks from Pat.
Pat yelled in victory as he managed to create a backdoor and enter the system before the Firewall could do anything about it!
"Ha! Up yours, NASA!!"
"Now... what the hell did I just watch?"
...
Ratatatatatatatata!!
The sound of helicopters arriving at the NSA headquarters resounded all across the region as they came closer to the building. There were doctors and nurses in lab coats rushing out from the building with stretchers and first aid kits as they ran toward the landing pad!
"Hurry up! Get the ICU open and make sure there is enough space in the hallways!"
"Treat anybody with an intensive injury first! I don't want to see a drop of blood falling on the damn floor! Get them bandaged up and close every wound!"
"Make sure you sanitize all the lacerations and take all possible amputees to the waiting room! We'll send the bone doctor to them!"
The nurse quickly pulled the man through the door and took him away, and Jeanne sighed as she looked down at her gloved hand. That small procedure just took two years from the man's life. If she had gone any further, then it would have taken more than ten years. The more injuries she heals, the more of her patient's life that she burns as a sacrifice to Thanatos.
Jeanne didn't know if her blessing was really a blessing or if it was just a curse.
What sort of doctor shortens their patient's lifespan in exchange for healing?
Ratatatatatatatata!
The sound of another helicopter began to echo through the sky, and Jeanne turned around and narrowed her eyes as she saw the new helicopter coming towards the landing pad from the horizon.
