Chapter 792 Low Profile Yet Arrogant
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.
He narrowed his eyes and directed his attention to Natasha. He wasn't worried at all, but he just couldn't understand her actions.
He had to admit that she was a completely different person in front of the computer.
“Dave,” Cosmos called out worriedly.
However, Dave ignored him.
Cosmos had to tamp down his frustration and turned his attention to the screen.
They were still chasing each other around on the screen. Slowly, the hacker got closer to Natasha and breached the firewall.
“We're doomed!” Cosmos muttered. “It's over.”
Natasha remained calm and composed. The screen changed to a string of numbers. She took a screenshot of the screen before turning to Dave. “This is the hacker's location. You should be able to find him if you're fast enough.”
Everyone was dumbfounded.
What does she mean?
Delight flashed across Dave's eyes. “Got it.” He quickly turned around and made a call. “Find him as soon as possible. We can't let him escape no matter what.”
As he spoke, he didn't forget to glance at the screen.
By then, Natasha had already began her counterattack.
She's amazing. I can't believe she managed to track that hacker down.
The man didn't know how she did that, but it was true that their firewall had been breached. He muttered, “What's the use of tracking him down? He might have already stolen all the data from our base. If we fail to apprehend him, we risk losing everything.”
Natasha increased her speed. “Losing a flawed firewall in exchange for his location is a great deal.”
“Flaw?” Cosmos was displeased. “Are you saying that there is a flaw in our firewall?”
“How do you think he managed to bypass the firewall several times?” Natasha didn't even bother looking up from the screen.
“My team leader and I spent over a year coding this firewall. It's our team's baby. How can it be flawed?” Cosmos retorted, clearly agitated.
Natasha continued typing on the keyboard as she chatted with him casually. “Even if you spent a long time coding it, does it mean it's good enough?” As she spoke, she gave him a look. “A hacker shouldn't think that way. Besides, you didn't spend too long on it. Some people spent years coding and perfecting a system.”
Cosmos was rendered speechless.
The hacker was able to bypass the firewall several times, which proved that something was wrong. His team leader had mentioned it to him several days ago.
Before they had the time to check the firewall system, Natasha had pointed the problem out directly.
He knew that better than anyone else but was just too proud to admit it.
Seeing that he fell silent, Natasha looked away and focused on the hacker.
Behind her, Kenneth glanced at Cosmos coldly.
Suddenly, the hacker asked: What was that?
Natasha replied carelessly: What was what?
The hacker went straight to the point and demanded: Why didn't you counterattack? Why did you allow me to breach one of your firewalls earlier? Why are you counterattacking now?
Without looking up, Natasha instructed, “Kenneth, tell Dave to hurry up. This hacker is cautious and will discover my intention soon. They don't have much time left.”
Kenneth grunted in acknowledgment.
