Chapter 2410 - 2418: Basic Firewall

Xin Shixun’s words gave the hackers of Country H a backbone, invigorating them one by one!

"LT, let’s take back the official website of Huaxia’s Network Office!"

Xin Shixun nodded without hesitation, "No problem! You guys go first, I’ll cover you!"

"Don’t rush! Let’s first devise a strategy and tactics!"

As soon as the IP of the South Korean hackers showed any abnormal activity, Qin Yu noticed it. Grinning, he said, "Gentlemen, please exit the official website of Huaxia’s Network Office and help lin create a variant 6 removal tool."

What? Qin Yu’s words left everyone stunned, and they were all at a loss for words.

Qin Yu couldn’t be bothered to explain and simply used his super admin privileges to boot out all staff accounts from the Network Office’s official website.

The staff of the Network Office, furious but unable to protest, could only look towards their director Chen Dong with eyes pleading for help.

Seeing Qin Yu busily typing away at the keyboard, Chen Dong frowned deeply but didn’t disturb him.

Soon, after discussing their tactics, the hackers from Country H, led by the three Sugars, launched another assault on the official website of Huaxia’s Network Office!

Then, all of a sudden, the hackers from Country H were dumbfounded!

What the hell?

There was only one firewall on the official website of Huaxia’s Network Office? And this firewall was just a basic one that even the weakest programmer could set up!

This... wasn’t what they had expected at all! The hackers from Country H were completely confused!

All the tactics they had prepared became useless!

Dammit, this isn’t how the script was supposed to go!

Where were the dozens of firewalls they were promised?

How come there was only one?

And just a basic firewall at that?

For a moment, the hackers from Country H looked at each other, none of them daring to initiate the attack, fearing it was a trap by Huaxia’s Network Office.

It wasn’t just the hackers from Country H who were stunned; the onlooking hackers were also dumbfounded, pontificating amongst themselves.

"What’s going on? Did Huaxia’s Network Office give up on their official website? Why is there just this one weak firewall?"

"I get it, the Variant 6 of the ransomware just appeared, and lin must be fully focused on cracking the removal tool for Variant 6, that’s why there was no defense."

"But even if Lin couldn’t set up the defenses, other people in the Network Office could! There are dozens of people at Huaxia’s Network Office; they could surely set up dozens of firewalls?"

"I have no idea what Huaxia’s Network Office is thinking."

...

The staff of the Network Office were also very irritated. What was Qin Yu thinking?

Just because he had super admin rights, did he think he was so great?

He had kicked them all out of Huaxia’s Network Office official website, asking them to help lin make a specialized removal tool instead.

And even more infuriating, after all his fussing about, he only set up one firewall?

And it was a basic firewall at that?

Everyone complained to Chen Dong in turn.

Chen Dong, with a bitter face, said to Qin Yu, "Mr. Qin, I’m not questioning your abilities; after all, the previous firewall stopped Lin’s attack.

"But, just now you were only facing Lin by himself. Now you’re up against the whole Hacker Alliance from Country H!

"Although my subordinates aren’t highly skilled, they can still give you a hand with the grunt work. Why won’t you let them help?"

Qin Yu laughed, "Grunt work? What I want to do is completely block the invading hackers’ main IP. Can your subordinates do that? If they can, then fine, let them come!"

What? Completely cut off the main IP?

Don’t make me laugh, okay?

Do you think you’re a god or something?

Finding the main IP among over a million disguised ones?

That’s absolutely a joke!

Liu Zhi, a disciple of lin, said coldly, "Since Mr. Qin is so awesome, able to directly block the opponent’s main IP, then let’s just sit back with our little stools and watch the show!"

"Exactly, since we aren’t going to do anything like a specialized kill switch 6 and can’t offer any help to Team Leader lin, we might as well just cheer Mr. Qin on here!"

"Hey, people these days, spewing big words without fear of twisting their tongue. I’m really curious to see how Mr. Qin is going to wrap this up."

Qin Yu smiled slightly. He had a plan up his sleeve! When the South Korean hackers launched an attack wave, he did two things.

First, he set up tracking source code to mark all the main IPs of the H country hackers.

Second, he created several variants of a ransomware virus using 64-bit, 128-bit, and 256-bit encryptions. You think you can mess around in our Huaxia, Lotte Group?

I’ll make you pay the price! Let you all experience the thrill of ransomware!

In fact, even if the H country hackers didn’t launch an attack, Qin Yu could still seek them out one by one and take them down!

But if Qin Yu were to launch a counterattack, it would take a lot of time, since searching for them one by one is very troublesome, and the hackers could possibly go offline to hide if they caught wind of it.

However, it was a different story when the H country hackers took the initiative to attack, allowing Qin Yu to wait at his leisure for them to come at him, making it easy to block their main IPs.

Qin Yu waited for a long time but didn’t see the H country hackers make their move, which made him a bit anxious. Had his plan been discovered?

Qin Yu quickly used Liu Yi’s account to post in the World Hacker Alliance official website chat window, "Kiddos, are you chickening out? Come on if you dare! Watch me block your main IPs."

As soon as Liu Yi spoke, the Vital Essence Spirit of the Huaxia hackers surged instantly.

"God Liu Yi, what were you doing just now? Why didn’t you participate in the defense? If you had patched up a few more vulnerabilities, they probably wouldn’t have been able to breach the website office’s official site, right?"

"I got it, God Liu Yi must be working hard on creating an invincible firewall! With this invincible firewall, they will surely be kept out!"

The hackers from H country laughed, "Pfft... such a mighty invincible firewall! Just like the legendary basic firewall!"

"I’m speechless, God Liu Yi is a true deity, spending a whole hour just to write a basic firewall!"

"Don’t celebrate too early. It might look like a basic firewall on the surface, but who knows what’s inside?"

...

Seeing the H country hackers and the Huaxia hackers getting into a war of words, Xin Shixun felt somewhat annoyed.

"What are you dawdling for? Even if the Huaxia website office does have traps, don’t be afraid! With me here! Even if long_7 is lying in wait, don’t be scared! Charge!"

As soon as Xin Shixun spoke, the H country hackers stopped hesitating and attacked all at once!

They rushed towards the firewall with a very aggressive approach!

You should know, the range of defense against vulnerabilities is very small, but they can be patched up very solidly.

But a firewall is different. It defends the entire site!

The scope of defense is broad, and there’s no way it could be as solid as a patched-up vulnerability!

In everyone’s mind, the violent assault by the H country hackers would surely shatter Liu Yi’s basic firewall!

The hackers from H country were already preparing to mock, beginning to polish the words they would use to greet Qin Yu in their minds!

But the bloody reality blinded their "dog eyes"!

Hundreds of IPs bombarded the firewall, not even causing the slightest ripple, almost scattering their own computer’s data flow instead!

Fortunately, the IPs used by the hackers in their attack were disguised, so even though one meat machine was wasted, it didn’t cause too much damage.

The people from the website office were ready to mock Qin Yu, but the scene before them nearly choked them! They couldn’t believe their eyes!

This had to be a dream! How could this be? How could a basic firewall withstand the assault of hundreds of hackers?

Mo Yuqi’s eyes were shining; her husband really was the best! Even though her hacking skills were average, she could read expressions!

The goose egg-swallowing expressions on the faces of the website office staff said it all!
