Chapter 819: Chapter 819 Too Late! Chapter 819: Chapter 819 Too Late! Even the best experts couldn’t decrypt a virus in three minutes.
Soone hung their head in dejection and muttered, “Now we’re really finished.”
Xu Long glanced at him, a confident smile in his eyes as he said, “The three minutes aren’t up yet, what’s finished?”
The others, seeing Professor Xu still able to smile at this ti, couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Professor Xu, do you know her?”
Xu Long spoke vaguely, “This year’s national college entrance examination top scorer, a rare double top scorer in both arts and sciences, who doesn’t know her?”
The man still felt sothing was off—Professor Xu’s deanor, it was as if he treated that young girl like an idol?
It must be a mistake.
This young girl had just graduated from high school, and Professor Xu was over sixty years old—it should be the young girl admiring Professor Xu, if anything.
Jiang Jing saw that even now Xu Long was still so optimistic about Qiao Yun, and that he had been firmly defending her from the start, which made her complexion darken unbearably, unable to figure out where she fell short compared to Qiao Yun.
Hmph, once the three minutes were up, Professor Xu would realize his initial choice was a mistake.
Jiang Jing clenched her hands, her gaze towards Qiao Yun filled with obscure darkness.
In just a short while, only two minutes remained.
Yet Qiao Yun was still not panicked at all, sitting leisurely in her chair in front of a supercomputer. From her angle, one could only see her fingers rapidly operating the keyboard.
Jiang Jing’s eyelashes drooped slightly as she sneered inwardly, putting on quite the convincing act.
A technical staff mber shouted, “Only one minute fifty seconds left! We won’t make it!”
Upon hearing this, hearts leapt to throats, and so had even started to plan their next move in their minds.
If the virus couldn’t be decrypted, they’d be like trapped on a deserted island, with no help from the heavens or earth, only able to wait for soone to find them, or else await death.
But as per the original plan, this event was supposed to last three days, and such a crisis had occurred on just the first day. Not to ntion that all the smart devices on the cruise could not be used, even the food situation was uncertain to sustain so many people for three days until they were found.
Everyone thought of the possible consequences, filling their minds with panic, fear, and helplessness.
Compared to everyone else’s concerns, Qiao Yun’s fingers danced, swiftly entering the code into the respective fields, and she even had so ti to spare.
She wondered how Han Wang’s preparations were going.
Many things were indeed inconvenient for her to handle, so she had to let Han Wang act as her representative.
“One minute thirty seconds left!”
As ti slipped away, Qiao Yun remained motionless, which made many faces grow increasingly agitated, beginning to bla Professor Xu within their minds—for being old and blind, leading them into this ss.
“Professor Xu, I shouldn’t have blindly followed you!”
“Soone try sothing, if the defense system is completely breached by the Doomsday virus, we’re truly done for!”
However, no one had the courage to speak up, as they had all seen earlier that the virus was beyond their ability to solve.
Despair was evident on everyone’s faces, showing that they had given up on decrypting the virus.
Han Luo couldn’t sit still any longer, rose abruptly from his chair, walked over to Qiao Yun, and hissed, “If you can’t do it, move aside…”
As he spoke, he reached out to pull Qiao Yun away.
With a little over a minute left, maybe he could try to find a bug in the virus.
If this crisis couldn’t be resolved perfectly, not only would Huo Chi be unable to explain to everyone, but he might also be reviled.
His hand had just reached out when, glimpsing the computer screen from the corner of his eye, he froze completely.
After a long while, Han Luo’s pupils constricted sharply, his eyes filled with disbelief and incomprehension.
The screen displayed lines of code whizzing by, so of which even he couldn’t understand… Was this just ssing around, or was it actual skill?
Han Luo looked down at Qiao Yun.
Her gaze was calm, her pink lips pursed, her exquisite brows expressing nonchalance.
In that mont, a thought even crossed his mind—maybe she had not been lying from the start, maybe she really could do it.
But the thought was quickly and firmly suppressed.
Impossible!
A re girl, she couldn’t possibly do what even he couldn’t.
Han Luo’s eyes darkened, and then he lowered his hand. He decided to let Qiao Yun fail. After all, she was supposed to be the one who triumphed in the end. If she couldn’t solve the problem, they couldn’t bla him, right?
It was they who insisted on believing in a young girl.
Soone glanced at the countdown and inhaled sharply, “Fifty-nine seconds left!”
Less than a minute remained.
There was no way they would make it in ti, definitely not!
Su Qingyan stared at the ticking countdown and sighed, “Teacher, do you still think my sister can do it?”
He calculated in his mind how to console Qiao Yun afterwards.
Even though he didn’t interact much with his cousin, he could tell she had a proud streak in her that would likely not accept failure.
Qiao Xun seed quite at ease, “There are still thirty seconds left, don’t rush.”
Su Qingyan couldn’t help but show a bitter smile. Thirty seconds would pass in no ti—how could he not be anxious?
At this mont, he wished ti could slow down even more.
Li Hanzhou’s dark eyes were deep as he watched the countdown uncontrollably.
Twenty seconds!
Fifteen seconds!
Ten!
Nine!
…
Three!
Two!
Suddenly!
The lights overhead flickered a few tis, and the next second they lit up completely!
Everyone was stunned, unable to grasp what was happening.
It wasn’t until a cry of surprise broke the silence, “The system has started up!”
As the good news spread, everything seed to start functioning normally.
“The security systems on levels one and seven are back online!”
“The computers can work properly now.”
“All smart devices are functional again.”
“Satellite phones and radios can connect.”
Han Luo’s face was puzzled; he rushed forward, grabbed a technician’s computer, fiddled with it, and began to doubt life itself, murmuring, “The apocalypse has been hacked… How is that possible.”
His gaze instinctively turned to Qiao Yun, who was calmly putting away her phone; she seed unperturbed, not showing any excitent after hacking the virus, as if it were the most normal thing in the world.
The others also regained their composure, turning their stares towards Qiao Yun, their faces filled with shock.
Holy shit!
She succeeded!
She actually did it!
So she really could!
Who on earth is this person???
So many experts present, including the director of the Huo Research Institute, couldn’t tackle the virus, and yet she had cracked it in just three minutes!
It was unbelievable!
Soone excitedly grabbed Xu Long, pressing him for answers, “Professor Xu, that’s not very decent of you!”
Xu Long was confused, “What did I do that wasn’t decent?”
