Chapter 31—The Murderer (7)
Abraham Don took a deep breath repeatedly, and after twenty years, he was once again facing a similar problem.
Omega's life is in danger, if she is not rescued in time, then the entire safe zone will be in a desperate situation, Omega is his favorite person, Maxwell Sean is his old friend who has lived and died together for decades, all the survivors in the academy are his responsibility, and the life and death of all people are tied to him alone.
Twenty years ago, Abraham Tang faced the same problem, but this time he was no longer young.
He's a disabled person now, he doesn't even have sound hands anymore, a programmer with one hand missing is like a doctor with a missing arm, and his next job is to perform a delicate heart surgery, and no one is there to help him, and no one here knows how to do it except him.
It was an almost impossible task, and Abraham, the one-armed doctor, had to perform a difficult operation, but he had less than thirty minutes...... There is probably no operation in this world that has a time limit, and people who dare to urge doctors during the operation are definitely tired of life, but if a middle-aged person can't get this damn safety switch in thirty minutes, then all the data in the system will be completely emptied.
The hell is ...... The unknown intruder may still be in the computer room, threatening their lives at any time.
It's the equivalent of someone holding a gun to Abraham's head and asking him to solve a puzzle of the century in thirty minutes, while a vicious dog hides somewhere and will pounce on him and bite his throat.
If this kind of thing is put on ordinary people, I am afraid it will collapse long ago.
"Okay, I'll try! I'll try! The middle-aged man's face was pale, and he tried his best to suppress his tremors, and he put his right hand on the keyboard, "I can definitely save the princess!" I'll be able to get her out! ”
Maxwell and him back to back, pistol in one hand and dagger in the other, looking around vigilantly, all limbs of his body infused with strength, this old fellow was over sixty years old and still had the shadow of the old man, he served as a guard for the middle-aged man in case the intruder jumped out of the way...... As long as he still has a breath, the middle-aged man's work will not be disturbed.
White numbers and codes flashed wildly from the blue background, too fast to be seen by the naked eye, the middle-aged man stared at the display of the workbench as he tried to crack the black box that locked Omega, Abraham was powerless to reverse the safety switch, but he could free Omega...... As long as Omega is back to working properly, then she can recover the data in all the servers.
Abraham Tang, the technical genius of the time, once again showed superhuman quality, he showed the speed of ordinary hands with one hand, his five fingers darting rapidly on the keyboard, and the crackling sound of tapping was unusually clear in the dark. He was looking for a loophole in the black box, and the people who designed it used a simple and crude method - layer on top of each other like tying a knot, and if you don't have the corresponding key, the slipknot will become a dead knot.
The middle-aged man did not have a key, so he used brute force to directly turn all the slipknots into dead knots, and then open these dead knots.
There are nine layers of such a dead knot.
"Good girl...... My good girl, you are amazing! Come on! Come on! The middle-aged man roared, "Marx bless you!" ”
"Why Marx?" The colonel asked.
"Didn't I tell you?" The middle-aged man's gaze wandered quickly with the code, "My whole family is Marxists, and the iron fist of communism is invincible." ”
"What did you mean when you said the princess was amazing?" The colonel turned his head.
"The princess is helping us, she is struggling to break free from the black box!" The middle-aged man spoke quickly, "She's helping me analyze the loopholes of this...... Without her help, I'm afraid I'd have cracked a two-hundred-fifty-six-digit password! But not anymore! ”
"I gotta remind you that you have twenty minutes left!"
"I've opened the outermost floor! Now on to the second floor! Now on to the second floor! The middle-aged man stared at the progress bar on the workbench screen, anxious like an ant on a hot pot, he clutched the door of the server cabinet tightly with one hand, and the green tendons on the back of his hand flared up to barely calm himself.
The large-scale server shutdown has begun, and the colonel looks around, and the blue indicator light on the other end of the computer room begins to turn orange-red, which is a symbol of clearing data and shutting down, and the rows of indicators begin to change color, more and more orange-red, gradually spreading.
The hum of the cooling fan was also decreasing, and even a completely tech-ignorant person like the Colonel could feel the huge data stream being sucked out of this underground space, the supercomputer that had been running for more than twenty years was shutting down, and once all the data was emptied, the safe zone was over.
They had fifteen minutes left.

The members of the hummingbird hunting team rushed into the pitch-black server room before dispersing their guards.
They didn't know what was going on, so far, the hummingbird team only knew that Omega's server room had been invaded, and the colonel and the middle-aged man didn't explain much, but a fool could see how critical this matter was, and the raider killer invaded the safe zone in the first place, which didn't make these two old guys so panicked, and they couldn't even squeeze out time to explain.
The Colonel didn't have time to direct the Hummingbird team to take any action, so they had to act on their own, and Rehro Cheng Belle and Lu Xun and the others quickly dispersed after entering the server room and began to search for the intruders.
Lu Xun hunched over between the server cabinets, holding a Beretta 92F in his hand.
It happened suddenly, everyone was unprepared, and Lu Xun carried this pistol with him, so he pulled out the gun as soon as possible, like Lei He even had only a crowbar in his hand.
"What's going on?" Lu Xun asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Lao Jia? ”
A few seconds later, Lao Jia spoke.
"I already know the general situation." Lao Jia replied, "To put it simply, it was the security system of this supercomputer that judged that the computer room had been seriously invaded, so it began to self-destruct. ”
Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, "Self-destruction? You mean Omega is committing suicide? ”
Why did Omega commit suicide? She's living a good life, she still jokes with herself from time to time or something, and she doesn't see this tendency at all, can virtual personalities also suffer from depression?
"It's not Omega killing itself." "It's another set of security insurance that is independent of Omega, and it may be designed to protect Omega, and the logic of this thing is that when a computer is severely damaged or hacked irreversibly, the Omega system is prioritized, and then all servers are destroyed to prevent data from falling into the hands of the enemy." ”
Lu Xun nodded.
"But now this thing is useless, its function of protecting omega is gone, but it still retains the function of destroying everything." "Now it's the situation: the security insurance system is going to be finished, so it starts destroying the server in order to prevent the data from falling into the hands of the enemy. ”
"What happens when the server is destroyed?"
"The safe zone will be destroyed." Lao Jia replied, "There is a nuclear reactor under your feet, it is under the control of Omega, if Omega is gone, then it will stop functioning, and the safe zone will lose all energy." ”
Lu Xun was startled, glanced at his feet, and his eyes widened.
There's a reactor under your feet? This safe zone is a secret after a secret, and you never know if you can dig it up.
"What should I do?" Lu Xun asked, "Can you be saved?" ”
"The academy is working on it, Colonel Maxwell Sean doesn't understand technology, and the person who is trying to rescue the system at the moment is Abraham Don, who was one of the people who designed the Omega system back then." "There are fifteen minutes left until the server is completely shut down, but Abraham Tang's speed is not enough, at his current speed, he will need at least an hour and five minutes." ”
Lu Xun stood in the dark, his mind a little dazed.
This great crisis that destroyed the entire security zone came at once, and he didn't even say hello.
He's still worried about Lemon's murder this morning, and now he's told that the whole academy is going to be finished.
He can't help with this kind of thing at all, if you want to say fight bayonets with marauders and killers, he can still carry a gun into battle, but this kind of data war that broke out between servers and fiber optic cables, full of numbers and codes, he can't even read it, even if he wants to help, he doesn't have the ability.
Professional barriers are insurmountable, and interlacing is like a mountain.
"Is there really no way?"
Lu Xun slowly sat down against the server cabinet.
"Unless Abraham Tang has three more hands, at his speed, there's absolutely no way he'll be able to get the job done before the data is completely emptied." Lao Jia said, "Unless I help." ”
Lu Xun was stunned.
"I rely on Lao Jia, can you handle this?"
"I'm a more advanced system than Omega, so of course there's no ...... to do this kind of work."
"Then you fucking hurry up!" Lu Xun almost shouted, "Don't rub it off!" Solve this problem as quickly as possible! ”
"If I interfere, then I will no longer be able to hide my whereabouts, and the Omega system will find out about my existence." Lao Jia said, "You and I will be exposed, are you sure you want me to interfere?" ”
Lu Xun was stunned for a moment and gritted his teeth, "If it's exposed, it's exposed!" It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married, so go with him! Saving lives is the most important thing now! ”
