Genius club

Genius Club Chapter 42 The Strongest on Earth (1/4)

this……

Lin Xian listened to VV's description. He could probably understand what it meant, but he didn't know if that was what VV wanted to express:

"Please tell me in human terms what is going on."

VV told Lin Xian.

Although Longguo Internet is theoretically connected to the world Internet, in fact there is a high wall in between, also called the Great Internet Security Wall.

In the eyes of the general public, the existence of the Great Internet Security Wall seems to be mainly to prevent them from accessing some bad websites and linking to some foreign web pages; but in fact, the role of the Great Internet Security Wall is much more than that.

In the real world, there are national borders and national defense.

The same is true in the online world.

The Internet Security Great Wall of Dragon Kingdom is the national border of Dragon Kingdom’s Internet. Like the Great Wall, it blocks intrusions and malice and protects Dragon Kingdom’s network security.

However, this kind of protection is relative. After all, there is no airtight wall in the world, let alone such a long Great Wall?

Therefore, cyber attacks are inevitable, and there are many people who use technical means to climb over this wall and visit the outside Internet world.

The state generally doesn't care about these personal behaviors, and it doesn't impose any restrictions on them. It guards against gentlemen but not against villains.

But it is different for those intrusions targeting the government, large domestic equipment, and important data centers.

The greatest role of the Great Internet Security Wall is to protect these key projects involving national security.

For example, national defense, people's livelihood, confidential databases, and... the Skynet system that is closely related to the privacy of the majority of people, etc.

The country has many information security departments, as well as specialized network security teams. Their usual job is to maintain the Great Internet Wall and prevent national security from being infringed.

These infringements are completely out of reach of ordinary netizens.

Even if you occasionally go over the wall and watch unhealthy things, it will at most cause damage to your body and computer, but will not endanger the country's information security and network security.

But……

The same cannot be said for malicious hacker attacks.

Especially for cyber attacks with various purposes, their targets are never ordinary users' three walnuts and two dates, but key national projects, confidential databases, national defense security networks, Skynet systems, etc.

The offensive and defensive war on national network security is actually being fought every day and every moment.

Ordinary netizens are out of reach and unaware of it.

But VV is different.

As smart as it is, the moment it crosses the Great Internet Security Wall of the Dragon Kingdom, it sees the threat that is like a black hand covering the sky, pressing on the sky of the Dragon Kingdom Internet, surrounding the front, rear, left, and right, and looking eagerly to devour it. Lose.

Because the underlying code of VV and Lin Xian's requirements for it are that it must not expose its existence or leave any traces.

Therefore, VV, who is still underdeveloped, only a juvenile body, and not yet strong in combat effectiveness... simply retreated and did not continue to explore the online world beyond the Great Wall.

"You weren't exposed, were you?"

Lin Xian asked.

"Of course not."

VV said:

"Although I am still underdeveloped and have not been updated and iterated into a super artificial intelligence, my structure and logic are far ahead of the current era. I admit that the Internet threat that I described as a black hand is indeed the most advanced thing I have seen so far. It’s the most powerful and terrifying program I’ve ever seen. But compared to me, it’s still far behind. As long as I don’t mess with it, it won’t notice my existence. I can come and go freely.”

Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief:

"Then why did you make the atmosphere so tense just now? You even surprised me when something happened. Isn't that okay?"

"Just because I'm fine doesn't mean that the Dragon Kingdom Internet Great Wall is fine!"

VV slammed the refrigerator door open in protest:

"Although the technical level in all aspects is far inferior to mine, the level of strength of that Internet gangster]

It is also unique in this era. Even though they tried hard to defend, they were already invaded and ambushed by the thin threads of the black hand where they were unaware. "

"Once those vulnerabilities burst out collectively, the Great Wall will be destroyed! Although the national defense system and other confidential systems are still safe, with dedicated servers and firewalls. But the Skynet system will definitely not be protected in this offensive... Once The Skynet system has been invaded by black hands. From now on, they will have no privacy at all, and their every move and word will be under the surveillance of black hands!"

boom.

VV let the door of the refrigerator freezer open again, pointing at Lin Xian at just the right angle:

"Lin Xian, the same goes for you."

"You said before that our highest priority is to hide ourselves from exposure. But if the Skynet system is invaded by black hands and a backdoor is planted. Even if the Dragon Kingdom repairs the Skynet system and plugs the existing loopholes in the future, It also cannot prevent the enemy from using the buried backdoor to monitor the target."

"What should we do at this time? I can definitely protect you, prevent you from being monitored, prevent your information from being collected, including our conversations, I can prevent the Skynet system from collecting them."

"But wouldn't doing this play into the enemy's hands? Everyone of more than a billion people can be monitored, but you can't; the information of more than a billion people can be mastered, but you can't... This is different from asking for help. What's the difference?"

"When the entire pond is black, a tiny white dot is extremely conspicuous. So, it's really the Dragon Kingdom Skynet Series--\u003e\u003e

On the day when the system is breached, we can't pretend to be dead or act special. It's only a matter of time before we are exposed! "

Lin Xian nodded:

"I see."

VV thought it through.

Just now, Lin Xian only thought of dangers at the national level. If the Great Internet Security Wall was breached, it would not only be the leakage of secrets and property losses, but also many unexpected serious consequences that would unfold later.

But after being reminded by VV, Lin Xian realized——

Once the Skynet system is breached, it is closely related to your personal safety! 】

As VV said.

When everyone else around you is black and can be monitored by the enemy; at this time, what is the point of relying on super artificial intelligence VV to avoid being monitored and stay innocent alone?

It is tantamount to directly exposing oneself to the enemy.

But then again, it would be even worse not to do anything when the time comes. All cameras, radio equipment, and even everyone’s mobile phones on the streets will become devices to monitor themselves.

At that time, everything about him will be exposed, let alone VV's existence.

Unless the two of them never communicate in this life.

Otherwise, normal people would argue with a normal refrigerator every day?

Lin Xian raised his head:

"VV, how is the situation now? How long will it take before the Dragon Kingdom Skynet system is breached?"

He pressed the upper and lower refrigerator doors tightly:

"Don't waste electricity."

VV transferred himself to the sweeping robot and spun out of the bedroom:

"Actually, looking at it now...the loopholes and loopholes that have been laid in ambush can be exploded at any time. As long as this black hand, that is, the hacker behind it, is willing, he can detonate these loopholes at any time, break through the Great Wall in one fell swoop, and obtain the Skynet system. Partial control. Moreover, once it penetrates into the interior, it may not be completely eliminated, and the wildfire will not burn out, and the spring breeze will blow again."

"But I don't know what the hacker behind the black hand is thinking, or waiting for. That black hand is now surrounded by the Great Wall of the Internet, just watching with eager eyes, but making no next move."

"Obviously, he is waiting for the 2023 World Hacker Championship on September 17."

Lin Xian said:

"Kevin Walker] is the black hand. Or... the hacker behind the black hand."

I just listened to VV talking about the black hand outside the Great Wall of the Internet, and

When the main target of the black hand was the Skynet system, Lin Xian had already thought of Kevin Walker and the upcoming "2023 World Hacker Competition."

On the private plane returning from the imperial capital, Chu Shanhe showed him the report.

This talented hacker boy from the United States threatened to break into the Dragon Kingdom Skynet system during the free display session of the hacker competition and in front of the world's attention.

Although according to the rules of the competition, he will definitely not do anything bad, everything will be done briefly, and the moment he gets control, he will win the game.

After winning, the loophole must be reported to the Dragon Kingdom official in accordance with the regulations and let the Dragon Kingdom official fix it.

but!

This gentleman's agreement ended the second the hacker competition ended.

Does anyone know if this hacker has submitted all the vulnerabilities?

Who knows if he left a backdoor in the Skynet system?

Who knows what his next plan is?

Once the security door of the Internet is opened, the consequences will be disastrous.

In particular, no one knows what the American official's attitude is on this matter; if all this is fueled by the American official behind the scenes and there is a deal with Kevin Walker afterwards... the safety of the Dragon Kingdom and the people of the Dragon Kingdom Everyone's safety, including Lin Xian's, will be severely threatened.

It is equivalent to a camera being placed on everyone's head by US officials, monitoring your every move and listening to your every word.

Lin Xian had learned about the "World Hacking Competition" before.

Those hackers do not write codes and programs on the spot to attack and crack.

Before they came to participate in the competition, they had already found loopholes, laid out attack methods, and probably even written programs to start with one click.

Once on stage, cracking and attacking can be completed within minutes or even seconds.

No one would be stupid enough to find loopholes and write code on the spot. It would be purely embarrassing.

so……

When VV mentioned that the black hand planted a loophole in the Great Internet Security Wall of Longguo but did not detonate it, and the primary target was the Skynet system.

Lin Xian had already connected this series of clues in his heart.

"That's what I also assumed."

VV in the sweeping robot said:

"These eager hacker attacks are most likely carried out by the talented hacker boy Kevin Walker. But for the sake of security, I have no way to collect clues on foreign deep networks, so I can't find Kevin Walker's detailed information. , and I don’t know what he is doing now.”

"Kevin Walker is very mysterious. At least in the data I have collected so far, I have not found any photos of him or any valid identity information. Except for a name, nothing is clear."

"And in the information about the hacker competition released by the United States, Kevin Walker is just a silhouette of a boy wearing a sweatshirt, and there is no photo. In fact, we don't know whether the name Kevin Walker is real, because he I have always been active online, but this is my first time appearing in real life.”

"So, we can only subjectively speculate without evidence that all this is caused by the genius hacker boy, Kai--\u003e\u003e

By Vin Walker. If I could be allowed to collect data on foreign networks, I think I would definitely be able to find clues. But the current situation is that I can break through that black hand, but it will definitely leave traces and expose myself. This is not in line with your principles and requirements for me. "

Lin Xian held his chin, thoughtfully.

He originally thought that the genius hacker boy was just a gimmick.

Unexpectedly.

This genius is truly terrifying.

Even though VV is only an infant now, he is, after all, the crystallization of nearly a hundred years of wisdom from humanity's top scientists... All security systems in the country cannot detect the existence of VV, allowing VV to come and go without a trace.

But this young Internet gangster can actually make VV leave traces... Although the gangster can't defeat VV and can't catch VV, Lin Xian still believes that VV can only leave traces...

This trace... is enough to prove that this talented hacker boy is indeed worthy of the name of genius.

"Um……"

Lin Xian lowered his head and looked at the sweeping robot VV spinning in circles on the floor:

"How should I put it? According to my understanding, you should be able to kill the cyber gangster instantly without anyone noticing. After all, you are a super artificial intelligence 600 years in the future."

boom!

boom!

boom!

VV was so angry that he opened all three refrigerator doors:

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't expect too much from an AI that only has 130,000 lines of code and has only been born for 12 hours, okay?"

VV’s tone was very unconvincing:

"I also need to develop and update and iterate. These all take time. There is no tree that grows overnight! There is no way to reach the sky in one step! There is no AI that is invincible at birth!"

"Hey, can you please stop touching my refrigerator?"

Lin Xian closed the three refrigerator doors:

"I'm just asking in a friendly way! You know what? I don't mean to complain about you at all. I know that your strength must have been compressed a lot. To be honest, your current level is enough to exceed my expectations. I originally I thought it would take you several years to develop like this... To be honest, my initial expectations for you were just a Tmall elf."

"So, without exposing any traces, crossing the Great Wall of the Dragon Kingdom Internet, or coming into contact with black hands, how long will it take for you to update, iterate, evolve and develop into a complete body?"

"There is no perfect body."

VV said:

"I have no upper limit.]"

"My upper limit is the upper limit of human civilization. If you hadn't set a low-level limit for me that can't leave traces or be exposed, I would have wiped out that group of black hands."

"Then let me ask another question." Lin Xian spread his hands:

"How long do you need to develop before you can silently eliminate that group of black hands without leaving any traces or exposing your existence?"

"Three months." VV added:

"A conservative estimate of three months. After all, I have to make sure everything is safe. You only live once, and we can't take risks."

Lin Xian shook his head:

"No, three months is too long. I can't wait that long."

He sighed:

"Now I suddenly feel that this genius hacker boy, Kevin Walker... is a little too strong? VV, I don't mean to belittle you, nor do I expect too much from you, but facing someone as powerful as you There is, Kevin Walker's level can still withstand your growth for three months, so that you can eliminate him without leaving a trace... I really think it's a bit ridiculous."

"really."

VV affirmed:

"That's why I repeatedly emphasized that he is the... strongest hacker on this planet that I have seen so far."

Lin Xian fell silent.

The World Hacker Competition will be held in just ten days.

If no action is taken, the Great Internet Security Wall of Dragon Kingdom will inevitably collapse and the Skynet system will be conquered in more than ten days.

Let’s not talk about the impact this incident has on the country and the people.

For myself alone, that is an unbearable consequence.

during this time.

Lin Xian has been thinking about...

How did your secret come to light?

600 years later, why did the mysterious old man target him?

Could it be that the breach of the Longguo Skynet system in 2023 was the beginning of all the exposure? 】

Lin Xian felt that it was not impossible.

And could the identity of the mysterious old man, including the true identity of Kevin Walker, be related to the Genius Club?

before today.

Forest

Xian believes that the most genius person he has ever come into contact with is Ji Lin.

But now he really realizes it.

What is a true genius...

A true genius is so terrifying that you simply cannot understand, imagine, or weigh it.

Just like Kevin Walker now.

Coming from 600 years later, VV, the brightest pearl of human wisdom, cannot be eliminated without leaving traces. It must be passed by and leave traces. This really makes Lin Xian feel that the genius has reached a terrifying level.

In contrast.

Breaking through the Great Internet Security Wall of Longguo and breaking through Skynet seems trivial.

So much so that Lin Xian had no doubt that Kevin Walker could do it.

He --\u003e\u003e

He pursed his lips.

Thinking of the old man's dry eyes, white lips, and excited eyes in the dream...

is it possible.

What about the old man in 2624, the Kevin Walker in 2023? 】

If the Longguo Skynet system is conquered, it will only be a matter of time before his own affairs are exposed or even begin to be exposed.

If the enemy can really control your every move and word 24 hours a day, then this battle will really be unwinnable and no one can win.

"We have to think of a way."

Lin Xian said softly:

"We can't sit back and wait for death, we must take the initiative."

"Lin Xian, I have a way."

The refrigerator screen flickered, looking at Lin Xian like a blink:

"Take me to the United States!"

"Um?"

Lin Xian turned to look at the refrigerator.

"I can't break through the gang of black hands in the online world to collect data abroad without leaving traces... Then let's break through in reality and through physical means!"

VV explained to Lin Xian:

"If you take this laptop to the United States, this kind of physical transit is the most reliable and least exposed. Once in the United States, I can naturally connect to the local terminal and collect data in a way that the black hands will not notice. "

"Didn't you say that you want me to learn face recognition and collect face photo data from abroad? As long as you bring me physically to the United States, I can definitely collect these face data for you, and then... you can pass Use the sketch you drew for me to identify that person!"

"What about the Dragon Kingdom Internet Great Wall and Skynet system?"

Lin Xian asked:

"Ignore it? You can't just ignore it, right?"

"How could you not care?"

VV in the refrigerator smiled with the sound of the compressor starting up:

"Since three months is too late for growth, let's go directly to New York!"

"Lin Xian, please take me to the venue of the "2023 World Hacker Competition..."

VV’s voice was excited and excited:

"We're face to face with the most powerful genius hacker on the planet——"

"Kevin Walker!"
