Qin Hao''s fingers tapped on the keyboard, speaking as he typed, "Mmm, I see it."


    "Damn it, do they think Xuan Country is defenseless?" Chen Ping''s eyes didn''t stray from the computer screen as his fingers also flew across the keyboard.


    This scene was unfolding in many parts of the nation.


    Whether it was governmental agencies or large internet companies, everyone was mobilizing their personnel to start defense measures.


    This time, the adversary''s attack was clearly premeditated, or else all the major websites in Xuan Country wouldn''t have been taken down within a short ten minutes.


    Moreover, the number of attackers must be significant, at least over a hundred.


    All the applications open on Qin Hao''s computer screen were software he had created himself.


    He didn''t set out to defend; that wasn''t his style.


    Hackers can be categorized into many types: some specialize in defense, others in attack, and there are also those who infiltrate silently, akin to silent assassins.


    Qin Hao was the assassin type of hacker; through his software tools, he had directly infiltrated a computer in Beihai Country.


    Then, using it as a springboard, he successively infiltrated more than ten computers.


    Afterwards, he bypassed the firewall to log into a major internet company in the Federation.


    He observed for a while. This network company had shut down many ports. It was clear they were preventing attacks and were prepared.


    Once the Xuan Country''s major companies and government agencies realized what was happening, they began a tug-of-war with the invading hackers, with websites gradually getting back online.


    In recent years, Xuan Country''s development in the field of network technology has been rapid. In terms of the number and power of cyber hackers, they are no less inferior to the Federation; in fact, they might be even stronger.


    Tenglong Group, which TT belongs to, had even won the world championship in security defense.


    In just half an hour, Qin Hao had taken down the official websites of more than a dozen major internet companies.


    Besides, others like him were also attacking some well-known websites and forums in the Federation.


    While Qin Hao was attacking, he was also capturing bots. He now had hundreds of them at his disposal.


    Soon he targeted FDK, the largest social platform in the Federation.


    The server''s defense was very tight; even if he could infiltrate it alone, he probably wouldn''t be able to do much.


    He directly controlled the hundreds of bots to launch an attack against the FDK server, with each bot sending data packets at the rate of tens of billions per second to the server.


    Qin Hao''s intention was simple: push the FDK server to its limits, forcing it into a state of paralysis.


    The simultaneous attack from hundreds of bots was terrifying, with trillions of data packets being sent every second.


    At first, there were no issues, but after ten minutes or so, the FDK server began to stutter and respond sluggishly. The users found it hard to open pages on FDK. Some were even outright disconnected.


    A few minutes later, the Federation''s largest social platform collapsed, all users were forcibly logged out, and the server was in a state of paralysis.
