Chapter 619 - Xiong Zhi is Angry
A few days passed since the news of the first expansion of ZD World created waves. Since then, ZD World made a huge step and left Univ One behind. The dubious rumors were left behind as well, because the expansion had proved that the developnt of ZD World had long been underway and was ticulously done.
In the most distinguished R&D laboratory of SC, four n gathered.
Linfeng, Jang Shin, Tanaka Shinichi, and Gu Zhen were currently discussing the details and progress of their system upgrade and new features. It was nearing completion and they were now having beta tests and evaluation procedures with Gu Zhen and the team of beta testers.
Gu Zhen handed to them the results of his tests. "It's all good. I ran a few batches of security tests too and it passed level C."
Shinichi's fox-like eyes narrowed into a thin line. "Level C only? I thought it could at least withstand Level B."
Gu Zhen's glasses glinted. "My anti-security system is tougher than yours."
Shinichi: "...."
Beside them, Linfeng was watching quietly.
He looked at the genius Gu Zhen who was now almost at the sa height as him. If this tall man was not wearing his glasses, he would even look manlier.
Who would have thought that this tall man was the sa as that small and skinny boy from four years ago?
Gu Zhen's appearance really changed. The only thing that did not change was his taste in his clothes and his thick glasses.
Linfeng asked Gu Zhen. "How long will it take for the newest upgrade to get into level A?"
"At this rate, it will take at least a year. Level A is second to the highest security level I have. But I won't sell it to you. Not for now. "
Gu Zhen's proud work was the creation of a security system that had the most impenetrable and toughest firewalls in the whole world, Level Z.
Currently, only three people have it.
Gu Zhen, Song Xuantin, and Xiong Zhi.
(A/n: This was Gu Zhen's creation in progress in the earliest chapter when he t Xiong Zhi, refer chapter 8. This is constantly being updated.)
This Level Z was not for sale.
Right now, the whole IT world only leveled the toughest firewall at Level A.
Only a few people, such as the top level of the national governnts of a few first world countries, the ric.h.e.s.t international tycoons, and other selected individuals in the IT world had the privilege to buy a Level A security system to protect themselves from the highest level hackers who were trying to pry into their confidential information in the dark web. Of course, so IT geniuses had been constantly trying to program various kinds of viruses that can defeat Level A security system, but so far, no one had succeeded.
If they learned that a higher wall existed other than the current, most sought after yet extrely difficult to attain Level A, not only the geniuses of the IT industry but even the most powerful businessn and various governnt leaders would surely flock over to Gu Zhen.
His life was constantly under the national military's protection as well as Linfeng's monitoring.
Gu Zhen had no plans to make other people get an advantage of his proudest creation other than himself and the people he cared about. If he created a higher level of security capability than Level Z, only then would he reveal Level Z's existence.
But for now, his company's Level A was already the best out there in the world of information technology.
Of course, the price was extrely sky-high too.
Linfeng and Shinichi Tanaka were both eyeing Level A and planned to get one for themselves.
Linfeng himself wanted to incorporate Gu Zhen's security system Level A in his ZD World. His current security system was very powerful, courtesy of Gu Zhen, but it would not hurt to get the best out of all available to them.
Linfeng still persuaded Gu Zhen. "I don't plan to use it now. I will pay you the remuneration today and then use it for next year, for ZD World's second upgrade."
The three simultaneously looked at Linfeng. Their eyes looked at him with awe.
"It looks like you already have plans for the next ten years for your ZD World," Shinichi joked.
"Of course." Linfeng smiled.
He planned to leave Univ One behind in the dust. He would make ZD World the best that no one could compare to. If there was a second or a third ZD World, he would make sure that they all pale in comparison.
Considering that Linfeng will use his Level A by around next year, Gu Zhen agreed.
The people in the room continued their discussion when suddenly, Jang Shin and Linfeng's phone both rang.
The ring tone was classified as urgent.
Jang Shin and Linfeng looked at each other. They knew well each other's ergency ring tone. How co they have received an urgent call at the sa ti?
Linfeng excused himself and went to a secluded place. There was only one person under 'urgent' label, it was his young miss.
Jang Shin also excused himself and went to another place.
Linfeng answered the call. "Zhi'er?"
"Linfeng, did I disturb you?"
"No, you didn't. What's the matter? Is everything alright?"
Xiong Zhi usually called him during his break or after work, so calling him this ti during work was quite unusual.
Did sothing happen?
He began to worry.
"Nothing happened on my side. Have you seen the news?"
"I haven't seen the news yet. We have been in the R&D laboratory the whole day. Why?"
"I see. Check the news. Univ One's creator is revealed."
Linfeng halted.
He was not surprised. He knew this was going to happen anyti soon.
"I see."
"..."
After a short silence, Xiong Zhi asked. "You know beforehand that it's Guan Gao Huan. Why did you not tell ?"
Linfeng's lack of response made Xiong Zhi assud that Linfeng had known this information beforehand.
"This..." Linfeng decided to be honest. "Actually, I did not plan to hide it from you. He challenged on the day of my debut to the society. It's a challenge that I cannot avoid nor I can ignore. "
On the other line, Xiong Zhi sighed. She began to rember Linfeng's hurried pace with regards to ZD World's progress.
So all this ti, he was going against Guan Gao Huan?
Her man was fighting alone again.
Was she not dependable enough?
Xiong Zhi's mood fell low. "You did not purposely hide it from , but did it not cross your mind about how I will feel once I find out that you are facing Guan Gao Huan alone? Am I soone so fragile that you have to protect and shield from everything? "
Linfeng's heart skipped a beat.
Xiong Zhi was angry?
He scolded himself inwardly. He got too focused on proving himself as a man that he overlooked Xiong Zhi's feelings. He knew that she did not want him to be involved with the enemy alone.
"I'm sorry, Zhi'er. I did not think it through."
Xiong Zhi was silent on the other line.
Linfeng's heart was tensed.
