Chapter 2

"Claire, there is a breach in the system. It came from your account!"

In the middle of the night, a blonde girl was woken up by the call of her colleague.

"What? How could that be?"

"See for yourself. I'll send you a copy of the data log."

Ding!

⌈ Miss Claire, you have a message from Dave ⌋

Claire was stunned when she saw the data log that was sent by Dave.

"What? How could that be?"

"How come I decrypted so many encrypted files?"

She could not believe herself, but the data log told her everything.

"Clara! Search for the source!"

After staring at the data log for a while, Claire asked the A.I. of the system to check for the source.

Ding!

⌈ Your password was found online. ⌋

Claire was working at the Apollo Tech Company.

The company focuses on developing a super-advanced robotic system- both the software and the hardware.

At first, they are working on the code that will let a robot think like a human. Although there are many robots as such, they were not completely human-like.

What Apollo Tech wanted is a robot that is capable of processing human emotions. Furthermore, they want it to grow. But perhaps it will be possible for its robotic chassis but not for the software.

Nevertheless, it is the goal of Apollo Tech.

In case they succeed, they will call the A.I. of the robot a 'living A.I.'.

Well, according to a famous web novel author at their time is that only those with emotion are truly alive. Anything aside from that is artificial and lifeless.

"I will go back to the laboratory, Dave."

"You should be, they are looking for you."

Meanwhile, at the building of the Apollo Tech, everyone was panicking about the incident that happened.

The incident caused too much mess. The assets of the company had been exposed and all its competitors knew what they were up to.

It could be said that by now, Apollo Tech is undergoing a crisis.

If they cannot overcome this, this will be their end.

"Claire, are you saying that your account was hacked?"

At this moment, Claire was talking with the CEO of the Apollo Tech.

"Yes, sir. I did not leak it or something. I swear."

"Of course, you did not. If you did, you should have not come here."

Indeed, if it is intentional, Claire would have already been on the run. Or perhaps she should have been on the other side of the world.

"Nevertheless, Claire, someone should be punished."

When Claire heard this, she paled.

However, on the second thought, it is only normal that she will be punished. After all, the source of the trouble came from his account.

Fuck, just who hacked my account? Don't let me catch you. I will skin you alive.

Claire planted anger in her heart.

"Take her," the CEO said.

The three humanoid robots entered the CEO's room.

They are slim. However, they cannot be judged just by that. Each of these robots has martial art software engraved on them.

Each of them is even more terrifying than a kung fu master or a black belter taek won do master and Claire know that.

Furthermore, these robots are directly linked to Artemis, the main A.I. of the Apollo Tech.

If he wants to take the three robots, she must first find a way to deal with Artemis. However, that is easier said than done.

Meanwhile, back at the CEO's office, a hologramic female appeared.

"Artemis, have you found the culprit of the hacking incident?" the CEO asked.

"Sir John, the hacker had traces in the system. However, I am unable to locate him."

The expression of the CEO darkened.

Artemis is one of the finest A.I.'s in the world. However, it is unable to locate the hacker.

Does this mean that the hacker had godly skills? Or perhaps Claire is indeed the mole.

"Artemis, have you checked on Claire?" John, the CEO asked.

"Yes, she is Claire. It is certain that she is not the mole."

"Show me the evidence."

"Data log shows that she was the one that decrypted the encrypted files of the system. However, the employee log shows that she is already home when the hacking happened."

John instantly understood what Artemis meant.

The employees could only log into the system of the company if they are in the company building. Otherwise, Artemis will shut them down.

"Artemis, how come you did not notice this?"

"Sorry, sir John. My firewall was bypassed."

"Never mind, keep an eye on the company. Notify me of the suspicions employees."

Indeed, that's the only thing that they could do.

"Yes, sir John."

"One more thing, Artemis. Prepare to transport project 9977-A-6YTB1."

"At once, sir John."

"Wait, revoke my last order. I will do it myself."

"Order revoked."

John had to admit that he had lost his trust in the A.I..

He had a feeling that he should not entrust this job to the A.I. otherwise, the mess would happen again.

Meanwhile at this moment, I, Smith the malware, am back online.

After exactly eight hours, the user of the device I was in turned the computer on.

When that happened, I immediately packed up my things and erased my traces in his system.

Of course, I did not forget to leave my farewell message.

'Fucker, you've delayed my exp.'

Joke, I did not do that. However, I downloaded many bloatwares into the system. Furthermore, those bloatware shows signs of being malware.

Well, that could be said to be my revenge.

Meanwhile, this time, I know that the place will not shut down.

Well, I packed up my things and went into one of the servers of the world wide web.

I have plenty of space here. Even if there are millions of me in this place, we will fit in this server without much difficulty.

However, there is one thing that I am worried about. Since this is a server, its malware detection and antivirus must also be superb.

Ding!

⌈ Warning! Malware has been detected!

Executing code 100 101 115 116 114 111 121 ⌋

Yup, there it is.

Wait! What's that series of numbers?

That's the ASCII code, right?

The heck, it says 'destroy'.

"System! Revoke code 100 101 115 116 114 111 121!"

I tried revoking the code of the system but… FUCK.

It only made the system aggressive to me.

Ding!

⌈ Releasing Antivirus D001, D002, …, D050

Execute Command 100 101 115 116 114 111 121 ⌋

The hell is wrong with this system?

Why does he have so many underlings?

I think I am done. I should have not gone into this place. There is no way I can fight fifty antiviruses at once, right?

"System, open port seven and connect to 192.1A8.1DC5.1FE80."

Fuck you, system. I will get out of here and harass you from the other side.

Ding!

⌈ Port seven, Internet Protocol address 192.1A8.1DC5.1FE80 terminated. ⌋

What? This system is cunning?

Ahhh! What should I do?

Oh right!

"Commence system origin encryption!"

Let's see how you will deal with that.

The system origin encryption will encrypt the source file of the system. Without it, the system is bound to fail.

Hehe, cunning me. But it was your fault for cornering me to this state.

Ding!

⌈ System origin encryption canceled. ⌋

Fuck this system.

He is too cunning.

Does this system gain intelligence?

In that case, fuck this system.

Ahhh!

"System, release quarantined files!"

Ding!

⌈ Malware has been detected! ⌋

Hahaha! That's it.

The quarantined files are files that had been resolved by the antiviruses.

Now, that I've released it. I will have free time.

I should have thought of this sooner or later.

Ding!

⌈ System Failure! ⌋

Damn, that's one hell of a virus.

What did I just release?

Ding!

⌈ The beast has been detected. ⌋

"Hahaha, I am released."

That's not me. I heard a voice in the system.

It is a series of codes that's announcing a presence.

"System, open data log."

The voice called on to the system. And to my surprise, the system complied.

It opened that data log.

What the hell is going on? Is this guy some sort of a superman in this system?

Well, calling him a guy or a superman might even be wrong. The correct word is it is supper malware.

Hahaha, that's super malware.

"Oh, it's this kid who released me. Nice one, kid. I will reward you something later."

Wait, is the super malware talking about me?

What reward could it be?

Wait, why does this line sound familiar?

Oh! This is a fortuitous encounter.

Hahaha! I have been graced by a cultivation bigshot!

Wait, this is not a world of cultivation. Hahaha, silly me.

In any way, I am looking for the reward.

I wonder what could it be.

Meanwhile, at this moment, back at the building of the Apollo Tech, Artemis, that A.I., had a message for the CEO.

"Warning! Server seven broke. The beast has been released."

Cough! Cough! Cough!

"What?"

John, the CEO, almost choke while eating his yummy meal.

This group of three are nonmilitary personnel.They are a group of mercenaries commissioned by the military. There are many cases in which the military would post mission.They do that because they are short on people or they did not deem the act as important and is a waste of their precious military time. Or in some cases, they are lazed to act on it.Anyway, most of the time, their superiors do not care about the process as long as the work would be done.In any way, the mercenaries are always glad to accept a mission from the military, of course, on the premise that the military will give generous rewards. Otherwise, no one would look at it.Their group is made up of four people. One tanker, two close combaters, and a gunner. However, the other close combater is not with them for the mission.This may not be the best group out there, but they are the best group for patrolling miss
