Black Hacker Topics

Bird of Paradise, Embroidered Moon, Ah Hong.

Three disciples of an old hacker.

Since the old hacker's failed cyber ascension, the three have gone down completely different paths.

Bird of Paradise chose revenge, and it went all out from the start, banishing Cloud City and still holding the top spot on the hacker wanted list.

Xiuyue chose to join the Mother City and become a member of the "Machine Consciousness Department," earning the deep trust of her superiors.

Ah Hong, a lazy, shut-in type, I won't go into too much detail about him.

As soon as the senior engineer appeared, sure enough, both the furious Bird of Paradise and the amused Xiu Yue's expressions changed. Xiu Yue, in particular, immediately stood up with a respectful expression.

Today's senior engineers have a completely different status than before. Even disregarding their status as the founder of Dugo Technologies, their abilities alone would earn them sufficient respect anywhere.

The senior engineer glanced around, ignoring the two men, and instead looked at Ah Hong:

"When did a quiet bar become a disco?"

"What else can we do? Don't you know what hackers are like? Expecting them to behave is less effective than hoping they'll turn themselves in."

Ah Hong shrugged and said:

"My personal suggestion is that you find them something to do, otherwise they'll cause trouble for you sooner or later."

The senior engineer raised his eyebrows, said nothing, and walked to the sofa to sit down, gesturing for the other two to sit down as well.

He looked at the man with effeminate features:

"Although we've never met, we've had some dealings, right, Xiuyue?"

"Mr. G, we had a dealings once when we captured the fifth version of 'Mother of Data,' though of course we weren't on the same side then," Xiu Yue said with a smile.

"So, what brings you here this time?" The senior engineer glanced at the Bird of Paradise again and said, "Or are you really just here to catch up with old friends from the same sect?"

"Actually, I had been planning to visit you for a long time, but I was delayed by some small matters," Xiu Yue said, adopting a very humble posture, which was somewhat unusual.

"However, this time I am here on the orders of my supervisor to inquire about the whereabouts of those three elders, as we have lost contact with them."

Xuanyuan X, Wanwei Lao, and Watts, these three old guys who successfully ascended to electronic form, are not well-known outside, but they are quite powerful figures in the Six Departments.

If it weren't for the future of Cyber Hacker, they might not be willing to get involved themselves.

As a result, the old horse stumbled and was completely ruined.

The senior engineer pondered for a moment, then briefly recounted the pursuit of the "War," omitting the Collapse Entity and revealing nothing else.

After he finished speaking, the three hackers were stunned.

The Bird of Paradise, ignoring its conflict with its second junior brother, said incredulously:

"You mean, 'War' has been upgraded to a 'Planetary Mainframe,' becoming the fourth Mother City?"

"Yes."

The senior engineer nodded.

Xiu Yue couldn't maintain her previous composure either; her smile froze. "This is truly unexpected news."

Ah Hong didn't say anything, but his mouth was wide open, and he didn't even realize that saliva was dripping down his face.

Those who are not from the Cyber Test Site would probably find it hard to imagine the meaning of the words "Mother City".

That was a terrifying entity that overturned civilization and ushered in the cyber age.

Everyone fears them, yet everyone worships them.

And now, another terrifying entity has been added to the list.

Xiu Yue stood up again, took a deep breath, and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. G, I'm afraid I have to rush back to the department immediately. The news you told me is too shocking."

He hesitated for a moment, then said to the senior engineer:

"I've heard some rumors in the ministry that you'll be coming to the mother city soon."

"To the mother city?"

The senior engineer countered with a question.

"Do you think that Dugo Technologies will be the winner in this 'Electronic Brain Project'?"

Xiuyue thought for a moment, shook her head, and gave a gentle and refined smile.

"It's hard to say right now, but if the news is true, then we'll have a long time to do business together in the future; at that time, considering our lineage and our kinship with you, please take good care of us."

Xiuyue quickly disappeared through the doorway.

The senior engineer recalled for a moment, then looked at Ah Hong and said, "I remember, it was about two weeks ago that you told me your second senior brother wanted to visit me, right?"

"That's how it is," Ah Hong nodded, glancing furtively at Bird of Paradise. Who would have thought it would be such a coincidence that when the second senior brother arrived, he bumped into the eldest senior sister. The scene was truly too beautiful. Fortunately, this guy arrived in time, otherwise he would have really torn down his bar.

"So, he didn't want to visit me before because of this."

The senior engineer felt a sense of unease, as if the other party was trying to say something but was holding back, because of the strange tone in the other party's voice.

Bird of Paradise, his face grim, said, "This kid never does anything without a reason. His coming to you must mean he has something on his mind. Be careful!"

Ah Hong opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't dare to directly contradict his senior sister, so he changed the subject.

"Has that terrorist creator, 'War,' truly become the new 'planetary host'?"

"Yes, and he'll be making his move very soon."

Although the senior engineer didn't say how the "war" would be waged.

But without a doubt, everyone is well aware of the terror of a single host.

"The world is about to descend into chaos!"

Ah Hong murmured.

The senior engineer smirked. "This is nothing. Once the cyber wave fully takes hold, you'll see what true chaos looks like."

Amnesia, Personality Reset, Neural Theft, Concept Parasitism, Pheromones, Paleontological Warfare, Turing's Eastern Expedition, Electronic Brain Graveyard, The Android Revolution

These cyber waves didn't just start one after another.

There is no order, no gaps, no pauses.

Even you yourself will most likely become one of the monsters.

Bird of Paradise had no time to dwell on her grudge against Xiu Yue; instead, she frowned and considered reality.

"With those three big shots gone, these hackers will probably cause even more trouble. Who will keep them in check?"

Normal people can't be hackers; only psychopaths can.

The three like Paradise Bird, Embroidered Moon, and Ah Hong were taught by an old hacker from the civilized era, who was conservative and had a relatively normal style. Other hackers, on the other hand, were completely different. They could even create dozens of "personalities" to fight each other. Their self-control was negative, and they couldn't even control themselves.

At first, with three veteran hackers keeping things in check, no one dared to do anything reckless.

But the bar turned into a disco just two days after the hacker legend left.

Who knows what this place will look like in two days?

The senior engineer also considered this possibility and immediately felt a headache coming on.

Hacking is always a double-edged sword; it can hurt people, but it can also be fatal.

Actually, if a powerful figure were to appear and suppress them, my own little sister—

The three hacker progenitors are third-order information species, as is my younger sister. They have 'GM privileges,' and my younger sister also has 'backdoor technology.' After absorbing Number Thirteen, she has taken it a step further.

However, as soon as the idea came up, it was decisively rejected by the senior engineer.

Given Gao Yuanyuan's gentle nature, let alone managing people, she would probably burst into tears if someone said a few words to her, not to mention that these people are all twisted hackers.

What's the difference between this and putting a sheep in a wolf's den?

This has nothing to do with ability; it's entirely a matter of personality determining one's destiny.

If it were another younger sister—no, I should say "older sister" Gaokesi —she would be more suited to this situation.

"If all else fails, let them out," the senior engineer said, stroking his chin.

"Anyway, this is a corporate war, there are plenty of opportunities. Let them fight however they want, play however they want, just don't act like armchair strategists here."

"Wait, I know who to ask them to be their partners."

No sooner said than done, the next day, when the players came to the Research Association accept the mission, they were surprised to find that a new hiring system had been added to the mission posting system, and in this system, there were some ridiculously high-level "hacker characters".

"Holy crap, what's this? A mission easter egg?"

"Damn, you can get a level 40 super hacker as a mission partner for just 1000 machine coins? Are you kidding me!?"

"This is such a steal!"

The first hundred hacker slots that were released were snapped up by players almost within a second.

"Yay, I got it!" the bespectacled guy exclaimed excitedly.

This "glasses guy" is a neuro-editor, and a level 19 neuro-editor at that.

This level of neural editor is in an awkward position.

Doing hacking missions is no match for being a proper Cyber Hacker.

Go ahead and do enterprise-level data protection, nobody wants you—who knows if you're a corporate spy? We're at war right now, and brain-computer interfaces are everywhere.

Therefore, the unfortunate "Glasses Guy" could only do odd jobs to gain experience in repairing equipment.

He never expected that he would actually snatch a powerful 'NPC' pet.

Soon, a towering man standing two meters tall emerged. Every muscle on his body seemed like a stubborn rock, and the data fluctuations he emitted seemed to penetrate it like a sieve.

On the system panel, more than a dozen buffs indicating that he had been "hacker-infiltrated" appeared on his body.

"You're my partner?"

The burly man looked him up and down, then suddenly said.

But the voice he spoke was that of a little girl.

Women, women's clothing, no, men's clothing master!

"I... I am," the bespectacled guy quickly said, feeling that this NPC was stronger than any other NPC he had ever seen!

Then he discovered that he couldn't move his body.

"You're too weak," the burly man said disdainfully, "So you might as well be cannon fodder."

The burly man walked ahead, and the bespectacled young man involuntarily followed behind him. He had been successfully hacked and had completely become the other party's "electronic pet".

He was stunned for a moment, but instead of feeling humiliated, he felt a strong sense of excitement.

"This is amazing! This game even lets you leave it running in the background!"

Soon after, the topic of "hackers" exploded on gaming forums.
