Chapter 1536 Panic
"Your Majesty, I did try to stop him, but the hacker is more skillful than me, and I failed to stop him," a weak male voice belonging to the hacker she hired, Ollie, sounded from the other end of the line.
That was the first time he had ever run into a hacker that was more competent than him. The hacker's firewall was also stronger than his.
"Find someone who's better than you! We must stop him!" the queen mother hissed furiously.
"I'll have to ask my senior, Gaston, for help, then," Ollie answered after a brief deliberation.
Ollie was the second-best hacker in the country. Apart from this hacker who was currently hacking into their security system, the most skillful hacker around would be his senior, Gaston. Without hesitation, the queen mother ordered, "Get him to do it, then!"
The man fell silent at once as it wasn't easy to get his senior to agree to help them out.
The more outstanding a hacker was, the less willing he was to work for others. Gaston was a prime example, for he would only accept cases that caught his interest.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" the queen mother snapped impatiently.
"Gaston doesn't accept cases easily," Ollie answered hesitantly.
The queen mother snorted. He doesn't accept cases easily? He will if the payment is enough.
Arrogantly, she announced, "Tell him I'll pay him five billion if he successfully stops the hacker."
Indeed, getting paid five billion for one case was an inviting offer.
"I shall try to contact him. Don't put the blame on me if he refuses to accept the case," Ollie said. Hearing that, the queen mother grunted in acknowledgment.
After cutting the line, Ollie contacted Gaston. The latter was about to reject the offer when he heard that the hacker was more competent than Ollie. At once, his interest was piqued.
Switching on his computer, Gaston started typing on his keyboard furiously. Soon, he hacked into Ollie's computer and saw that Ollie's network had been intercepted. A devilish smile flitted across his lips. Interesting. Since when did such a hacker exist in our country?
His fingers flew over the keyboard as he typed furiously.
Meanwhile, Arielle was still at her computer when she realized someone was trying to hack into it. Her gaze narrowed as she typed on the keyboard furiously. Instantly, she managed to track the hacker down. She pressed a few commands, and the hacker's computer screen went blank. A smile nudged her lips. Trying to hack my firewall? Dream on!
Gaston chuckled. "Interesting. This is interesting!" With that said, he tossed his computer aside and got up to get another laptop he kept aside. Once again, he tried to hack into Arielle's computer. Alas, her firewall was too strong, and he couldn't bypass it.
Hmm, this is getting more challenging!
Gaston loved challenges. As he typed on his keyboard, the codes flashed on the screen. Suddenly, a few words appeared on his screen.
If you don't stop, don't blame me for being ruthless!
The warning did nothing to deter Gaston. On the contrary, he grew increasingly excited. After all, this was the first time someone had dared to threaten him. Naturally, he refused to stop, for a strong rival could motivate him to get stronger!
The moment he typed something, his laptop leaped into action. Gaston could only watch as the other hacker copied all his data. He tried to switch off his laptop but to no avail. His laptop remained on no matter what he pressed.
At once, he began to panic. Grabbing his laptop, he tossed it to the ground forcefully.
D*mn it!
Despite knowing that his action wouldn't stop the hacker from getting his data, he couldn't help breaking his laptop in fury.
