Both sides exerted their efforts to control the situation.

Ethan grabbed Jack and said to Neil, “You’re impressive, I never denied that. But you beat me, not Cheshian. Winning against me doesn’t mean you can insult my country. Cheshian has countless talents, and one day, the global hacker and cybersecurity rankings will have a place for us.”

Danny enthusiastically supported, “Well said, little brother.”

Neil’s face looked grim, remaining silent.

The match ended with Taragon University losing to Sagefield.

The atmosphere changed slightly after the announcement of the result.

Just minutes ago, the Sagefield students were celebrating their victory enthusiastically, but now they were silent, replaceing their win harder to bear than a loss.

Neil looked at the now quiet audience, snorted coldly, and left.

Ethan apologised to Jack, “Sorry, no prize for us.”

Jack didn’t respond. He stepped forward to grab Ethan’s laptop and said, “Let’s go.”

He strode away quietly.

After avenging their previous loss, Sagefield’s principal, Humbert Brown, immediately ran to replace Magnus, grinning from ear to ear.

After learning his school had lost the match, Magnus anticipated Humbert’s gloating and was ready to go home, but the old man was quick and blocked him at the door.

Magnus made tea and cheerfully congratulated Humbert.

Just then, trouble struck Taragon University,

The department head burst in, holding a laptop, looking anxious. He reported, “Something’s wrong, Principal Burton!”

When he saw Humbert, he quickly shut his mouth.

Magnus asked, “What’s the matter?”

Given the seriousness and urgency of the situation, the department head couldn’t care less that Humbert was present. Taragon University’s reputation was at stake.

He handed the laptop full of gibberish to Magnus and explained, “Our school’s network has been attacked. They have compromised the campus network, forums, databases, and data archives. There could be a leak of research lab dara.

Magnus’s heart sank at this. His expression changed, and he roared, “Call the IT staff! Did you report it?”

Taragon, one of Cheshian’s top universities, had a state–provided network system that was supposedly

No one had previously managed to hack their network.

This was truly a case where misfortune never comes alone.

Isabelle returned to the computer lab after meeting her advisor, only to replace her laptop showing gibberish. She cursed under her breath, “D*mn it.”

“Who touched my computer?” she demanded.

A few guilty students stood by and stammered, “Is, Isabelle, we didn’t mean to…

Bored, Isabelle had used a lab computer to hack into a government building in another country, altering the lighting control system and playing a game of Snake with the building’s technical team.

Her action had the local government on high alert.

Her advisor called her away halfway through.

The boys thought she had left after finishing her work. They were attracted to her laptop. A random key press caused the entire Taragon security system to come under attack from the building’s defenses.

Their curiosity and meddling nearly ruined the university’s security system. Isabelle returned and immediately started fixing the problem.

The boys observed that not only were all the computers in the lab blacked out, but also their phones disconnected from the campus network.

The chaos extended beyond the computer lab, with the graduate students and professors in the research lab experiencing the most intense panic, nearly erasing years of research.

For them, it was worse than the sky falling.

Realising they might have caused a disaster, the boys watched Isabelle nervously, not daring to speak or ask questions.

Taragon University fell into a brief state of chaos but quickly returned to normal.

Magnus understood that this wasn’t an issue ordinary IT staff could handle. He immediately instructed the department head to replace Isabelle. Magnus quickly reached for his phone.

The anxious department head was about to ask something when he noticed the computer screen was back to normal. He said, “Hey, it’s fixed.”

He tapped a few keys, replaceing no issues. “I’ll go check what’s going on,” he said, leaving.

Humbert said, “Principal Burton, your security system is lacking. A top Rissuan programmer, a national treasure, designed our Sagefield system. If you require it, I can provide you with an introduction. We can’t take chances with the students‘ data.”

Magnus felt completely humiliated after losing the match and now facing ridicule.

“My school has an issue to address. I need to go check it out. Sorry, I have to excuse myself, Magnus said, eager to get rid of him.

Humbert, under the guise of concern, wanted to stay and watch the drama unfold. Magnus found himself

Soon, the department head returned with the laptop and reported, “It’s all good. The research data is safe.”
