Chapter 84 - Chapter 84: A Technological Overmatch, Herta Panics, Fulfills the Bet

Oliver brought Herta to Belobog with two flashes, back and forth.

This was why Herta insisted Oliver pick her up.

She was too lazy to travel such a long distance herself.

With Oliver's spatial technology, it was an instant trip, incredibly convenient.

"Here, this is the super-intelligent network security system I made for you. Just find a main control device to use as the core."

Herta handed Oliver a chip.

It looked small, exquisite, and full of high-tech flair.

Oliver inserted it into a device in Qlipoth Fort.

It immediately connected to the entire planet's network.

Of course, currently, the entire planet only had Belobog's Upper and Lower Districts.

"Now, if anyone tries to invade Belobog's network, they will be intercepted, and an alarm will be triggered, even if they just try to modify game data."

Herta confidently puffed out her chest, her expression as if telling Oliver, "Praise me."

"Hmm, not bad. Now I don't have to worry about the Stellaron Hunters coming to steal the Stellaron."

Oliver pretended to be relieved, but in reality, he secretly used his phone to send Silver Wolf's virus program to his own network.

Just like when he invaded accounts at the company before.

Oliver 487 used the same method, launching the virus with Guaranteed Hit, striking the super-intelligent network system's terminal.

"When this genius takes action, it's that simple."

Herta stretched in front of Oliver, "Besides, with me here, the Stellaron Hunters would never dare to come."

Beep beep beep!

Suddenly, all the surrounding devices simultaneously sounded an alarm.

"Virus program detected, firewall about to be impacted!"

Herta froze for a moment.

What did this mean? Was it specifically to make her look bad?

Coincidence or premeditated?

She looked at Oliver, suspecting he was playing a trick for the bet.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? Disaster strikes right after the bet?

"Why are you looking at me?"

Oliver spread his hands, looking innocent.

Herta thought about it and realized Oliver had been under her nose the whole time, with no opportunity to play tricks.

So she temporarily set aside her doubts, immediately found a device, and personally operated it to intercept the virus.

Da da da, pa pa pa da da da.

Herta typed code extremely fast.

She wasn't a hacker, but she had the same professional hacking abilities.

This was genius.

"Impossible!"

The more Herta fought, the more shocked she became.

The opponent's virus program was like it had cheats enabled!

She used every method she had, but was completely unable to stop the virus invasion.

Herta was incredibly surprised and astonished. Who was this Mysterious expert with such powerful hacking skills?

She couldn't stop it, simply couldn't.

"It seems the alarms were deliberately left as a flaw by the opponent. If they were serious, my firewall probably wouldn't even be able to respond with an alarm—the gap is too big."

At this moment, Herta actually felt a sense of helpless despair.

It had been how many years since she last felt this...call out~6 Erhai 8 (Four) Shi Ba

Suddenly, all devices simultaneously went to a blue screen.

A small Silver Wolf figure was dancing on the screen.

"Herta."

"Herta."

"Hey, hey, hey."

All electronic devices around, anything capable of making sound, were repeating this audio segment.

Even Oliver's phone was playing it.

"Silver Wolf, you're really something."

Herta saw the provocation on the screen and instantly fumed.

An unidentifiable anger flared in her heart.

It seemed the other party had already invaded here, knew she would come to install a firewall, and deliberately waited to make her look foolish.

Herta clenched her fists in anger, veins bulging on her forehead, looking like she was about to go on a rampage.

Fortunately, two deep breaths brought her back under control.

The virus broke through the firewall and began to attack the network terminals.

At this moment, Herta discovered that the virus was not strong; in fact, her antivirus program could automatically eliminate it.

But why couldn't she stop it herself?

Why was this happening?

Beep beep.

Soon after, Silver Wolf's virus was eliminated.

After all, it was only used to bypass the firewall, not to actually destroy Belobog's network.

Coupled with Herta personally taking action, it naturally died quickly.

As soon as the virus was eliminated, the surrounding equipment immediately returned to normal.

Oliver was glad he had been extra careful.

He had Silver Wolf transfer the virus to devices in other locations and then grant Oliver's phone sending rights.

This way, Oliver was just an innocent victim used as a pawn.

"Hmph, deliberately trying to annoy me? Very well, you all just wait!"

"I'll find someone to ban your accounts!"

Herta cursed Silver Wolf and that Mysterious accomplice at her computer.

She had lost this round of offensive and defensive battle, losing completely.

It also completely dispelled her suspicions about Oliver.

After all, Oliver had stood by her side the entire time, doing nothing, not even playing on his phone.

And although the opponent's virus wasn't strong, it could continuously break through the ten firewalls she had just built, which meant it was a real-time confrontation.

So it couldn't have been Oliver.

But if that were the case, wouldn't it just confirm her bet with Oliver?

Regardless of whether it had anything to do with Oliver, she had indeed failed to stop the Stellaron Hunters' invasion.

Damn it!

"Wait until I call in reinforcements; let's see how many of you can handle."

She wasn't stupid; if she couldn't handle it alone, she'd ask for help.

Screwllum, as an Automaton, was a master of network data.

Just as Herta was seething with resentment, a phone was held in front of her.

Oliver's voice rang in her ear:

"Herta, can you help me watch this video and tell me what it's about?"

What else could it be about?

Of course, it was the bet Herta had recorded.

If the firewall was breached by the Stellaron Hunters, she would work for Oliver for free for a hundred years!

"What's the hurry? I never said I'd go back on my word."

Herta turned her head away and snorted coldly: "Hmph, to have a genius like me work for you, you must be thrilled, right?"

"Of course, who wouldn't be happy to get a genius beautiful girl for free?" Oliver teased.

"What 'getting for free,' that sounds terrible." Herta added with a resentful expression: "One hundred years of work is one hundred years. I keep my word. Come back to the Space Station with me; I'll fulfill the bet immediately."

She stood up, radiating immense resentment.

Clearly, she was very angry.

It was understandable; a small fry she usually didn't even notice had publicly shamed her in front of outsiders today.

And even mocked her to her face; who could tolerate that?

Only Herta, with her strong rationality, could suppress it.

"That quick?"

Oliver was slightly surprised.

Herta was actually so quick about something like this?

He felt like something was off... She wouldn't try to trick him into going there to harvest his organs, would she?

"Oh, right, the Stellaron is on you, isn't it? Remember to bring it."

Herta suddenly turned around and smiled at Oliver: "Now, you're my bait."

Oliver calmly nodded.

But in his heart, he was thinking: using the mastermind as bait to catch the mastermind, is that even possible?

If Herta knew the truth, she would probably break down.
