Chapter 771
Chapter 771 Dealing With the Small Fry Although the opposing hacker team was exceptionally powerful, Hacker Alliance had been able to stand tall in the hacking world for many years, indicating its formidable strength.
The opposition came with great hostility, but Ronin dealt with it effortlessly.
He initially thought that the Duncans' cyber department was very weak. After all, in his view, the Duncans were good at making money, but they needed professionals like him when it came to technical matters.
However, he didn't expect the Duncans 'cyber department to be reasonably competent. Ronin organized his team, assigning them specific tasks, and the work proceeded smoothly.
The sudden attack left the entire cyber department disoriented, and the Duncan Corporation's technical staff were all confused by the massive onslaught from the hackers.
But once Ronin took charge, the situation changed. He seemed familiar with such attacks.
In the beginning, the Duncan Corporation's technical staff were chasing and encircling the opponent. Whenever the opponent attacked one department, they would rush to rescue, resulting in exhaustion without significant effectiveness.
But when Ronin joined, the situation changed. He always managed to anticipate the opponent's moves and make preparations before the opponent could act.
As soon as the attack was launched, they could track down the hackers, find their IP addresses, and neutralize them.
When the situation was under control, Ronin decided to leave the current battle to the Duncans' cyber department.
He needed to free up his hands and set up a new strategy; being constantly on the defensive was not their style.
They had always been the ones initiating attacks. When had they ever been constantly attacked by others?
Ronin turned the brim of his baseball cap to the back, rolled up his sleeves, and waved to Zobber. "Come on, lend a hand."
Zobber shrugged off her clothes and confidently approached Ronin. "Step aside. Let me handle them."
After Zobber took over, Ronin grabbed the keyboard, moved to the side, and swiftly typed lines of code on the computer screen.
After the recent counterattack, Ronin had gained a good understanding of the attackers. Now, all he needed was some time to write a program to deal with them.
As time passed, the battle between the two sides became intense, almost reaching a stalemate.
Though neither side emerged victorious, the fact that they stood on par with the Hacker Alliance was a significant morale boost for the attackers. After all, the Hacker Alliance was previously considered an insurmountable obstacle.
This newfound confidence fueled their preparation for a large-scale attack.
Sensing trouble, Zobber shouted impatiently in Ronin's direction, "Are you done yet? Why are you so slow? I can be faster than you."
Ronin's hands sped up as he retorted, "You're the slow one. You're slower than anyone!"
This remark earned Ronin a quick thump on the head from Zobber, causing him to wince in pain. Fortunately, his hands didn't slow down, and he quickly completed a set of programs.
After finishing the program, Ronin immediately implanted it into the computer. He called back all the defensive staff he had deployed earlier. Now, it was time for them to strike back.
Ronin's program was a trap designed to lure the attackers into exposing themselves.
Watching the excited group of attackers in front of the screen, Ronin couldn't help but laugh. "Come on, let's see how long you can keep smiling.
Ronin pressed the start button, and all the computers instantly crashed.
Some savvy hackers had already sensed the danger and tried to escape. Ronin quickly tightened the net, and in a matter of minutes, the original balance of power had reversed.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
The once arrogant hackers were now in disarray, retreating in defeat.
Watching the characters on the screen indicating victory, Ronin felt somewhat displeased. "Disappointing. We didn't manage to catch all of those arrogant brats. A few slipped through the cracks; what bad luck!"
Actually, Ronin's achievements in such a short time were remarkable. After all, there were still many experts within the attackers, and the attack had been sudden.
The opponents were organized and planned, while they had only joined the battle midway.
To be able to turn the situation around and drive away the hackers was already an incredible feat.
Seeing Ronin's displeased face, Paxton was about to console him, but before he could speak, Catherine said in her usual leisurely manner, "Don't worry. None of them got away."
Ronin immediately perked up, turning to look at her. "Catherine, what do you mean?"
Catherine quickly tapped a few times on the keyboard, sending a link to Ronin. "See for yourself."
Knowing that Catherine never fooled him, Ronin opened the link on his computer. "Wow... Catherine, you're amazing!"
Hearing Ronin's exclamation, Zobber immediately leaned over. Seeing the content on the screen, she couldn't help but give Catherine a thumbs-up.

Catherine, you're truly incredible.
Ronin, you see it? You should learn from her."
Ronin couldn't argue with Zobber's statement. After all, in his view, Catherine was indeed the most formidable presence in the world, surpassing everyone.
Seeing everyone excited but not revealing the reason, Paxton grew anxious.
He turned his head to Branden and saw his calm expression as if indifferent. He could only gather the courage to ask, "What are you all marveling at? Share some joy with me."
Ronin was in a good mood and didn't hesitate to boast about Catherine's feat. "Just a moment ago, a few small fries slipped through, but they were intercepted halfway by Catherine."
After Ronin finished, Zobber added, Not only that, Catherine also hacked m e
into the bank accounts of these! hackers.
Upon hearing this, Paxton couldn't help but laugh. "I didn't expect this bunch of brats to be taught a hard lesson by you and even have to cough up their hard-
earned money."
Ronin looked proud. "Of course. Don't they know who's backing the Duncan Corporation, huh? With Catherine on our side, these people are asking for trouble."
With that, Ronin felt that the surroundings had quieted down a bit, and the atmosphere seemed a bit off.
He recalled what he had said and realized he misspoke again. He turned to look at Branden and cautiously said, "Mr. Duncan, please don't misunderstand. I was just joking."
Branden didn't mind, just gazing at Catherine with a hint of playfulness in his eyes, and his low voice sounded slowly: "Catherine, I'll rely on you to take care of things in the future."
Catherine was proud and raised an with a eyebrow, looking at Branden with a triumphant expression in her eyes.
O She readily agreed, "No problem. You'll definitely have good days ahead following me."
