Perhaps because they shared the same mathematics and the same logic, the development paths of the earliest God Plague Curses in the Divine Land and on Earth had overlapped to an extremely high degree—almost perfectly identical.
On Earth, the first case of a computer virus wreaking widespread havoc appeared in 1988. Its creator was neither a great mathematician nor a pioneer in computing, but merely a graduate student. At first, he had only wanted to conduct an experiment, planning to make a self-replicating program slowly "worm" its way from one computer into another, with no malicious intent to damage any computer network.
Yet this terrifying program of only ninety-nine lines of code destroyed America's entire network at the time, causing hundreds of millions of dollars in losses. That graduate student had merely typed in the final line of code, then gone out for dinner. By the time he sat back down before his computer, the situation had already spiraled beyond control.
And that had been with the "tiny water-pipe" internet speeds of '88.
That ninety-nine-line program contained far too little—only "self-replication" and "transmission." It had no additional functions—and precisely because of that, even its creator could not control it.
Yet it was precisely because it was simple and uncontrollable that its power was so frightening. The compact "body" represented by those "ninety-nine lines of code" made their replication speed far exceed their creator's imagination. Once that terrifying capacity for replication had occupied all of a computer's resources, the computer became no better than junk.
Beyond that, the virus had no other function. No one could implant anything more into ninety-nine lines of code. Its author could not control it, could not use it to open any backdoors or steal any information, and could not direct it to destroy specific data
