Immediately, the person in charge quickly said, “No!”
Natasha remained composed and looked at the man beside her. “I'm fine with this.”
“What if you lose?” the man asked.
“I won't lose.”
“How can you be sure?” the man asked. “We've been trying to take him down for a few days now, but he's really good at evading us. It took our entire team to barely even slow him down. You're alone, and you're a woman, so it's impossible!”
Before she could retort, Kenneth shot the man a sharp look. “Your team couldn't even stop the hacker. I can't believe you're still bold enough to talk right now!”
The man glanced at Kenneth. He had only joined DX Group some time ago, but he knew the rumors surrounding Kenneth.
“J, I'm doing this for the headquarters!”
“Those who are capable won't judge people by their gender. Those who judge other people by their gender are foolish.” Kenneth then turned to Dave. “I wonder where you recruited them.”
The man knitted his brows when he heard that comment.
Knowing Natasha's identity, Dave pursed his lips in silence before eventually saying, “I'll let you handle this.”
“Dave!” The man cast a disapproving look in Dave's direction.
“If she can't stop this hacker, not even twenty of you can,” Dave said slowly.
The man frowned yet again.
He couldn't help but cast a doubtful look in Natasha's direction. Is this woman that capable?
After receiving Dave's approval, Natasha was about to reply when the hacker asked: What's the matter? Are you too afraid to reply?
Natasha: Yeah. I'm afraid you'll regret your decision later!
In front of the computer, Natasha was arrogant and disinterested, just like Anthony.
Hacker: You won't get lucky this time.
The screen changed, indicating that the hacker had started his attack. Seeing that, Natasha calmly began her counterattack.
Things started getting nerve-wracking.
The entire team stopped what they were doing and gathered in front of the huge screen to watch the battle.
While female hackers weren't uncommon, it was unusual to come across one as low-profile yet arrogant as Natasha.
The screen was filled with lines of code flashing rapidly, and frequent pop-up alerts indicated that they were under attack.
Those watching furrowed their brows.
The hacker's attack was swift and dangerous, but instead of counterattacking, Natasha focused on stopping him and searching for something.
The rest felt their hearts jumping to their throats in anxiety.
“What are you doing? Attack him back! if this goes on, he'll breach our firewall soon!” someone yelled.
“Shut up, Cosmos,” Dave chided in a low voice.
He didn't know much about hackers, but after spending some time with them, he could grasp a basic understanding of hacker attacks.
Natasha was indeed in a precarious situation.
