Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Lin Ou's expression was rather unpleasant.

He wondered how Gao Shenxue knew the company's network IP address.

Could it be... that she had already marked him when he infiltrated the Ye family last time?

"technician!"

The chairman picked up a microphone from his desk and said in a deep voice, "Investigate immediately what happened and find out who hacked into the company system!"

"No need to investigate further," Lin Ou said bitterly. "It's definitely Gao Shenxue..."

The chairman looked up at him: "Gao Shenxue?"

"This virus is the one I used to deal with their city," Lin Ou sighed. "Now it seems she's already used it, and may even have upgraded it..."

The chairman frowned: "If we immediately disconnect all of the company's network connections now, will it still be of any use?"

Lin Ou shook his head: "No, the virus has already invaded the company's deep virtual network space. If we disconnect the network now, not only will the company's system completely collapse, but the entire company's virtual network space will also be completely occupied by the other party."

Upon hearing this, Karl looked at the chairman and said, "The company's virtual network space still stores hundreds of trillions of trillions of data-level extraordinary energy. This data-level energy is enough to nurture more than a dozen Apocalypse Realm extraordinary individuals. If it were stolen by the other party..."

The chairman's expression changed.

He looked at Lin Ou: "Since that's the case, why don't you hurry up and go?"

Lin Ou: "?"

Chairman: "Isn't this the virus you created? Of course, it's your job to solve it!"

Lin Ou: "......"

Lin Ou recalled the scene from not long ago when Gao Shenxue had repeatedly tortured and killed him more than three hundred times in the virtual world...

My body shuddered involuntarily.

"...Chairman, I'm afraid I can't be of any help in my current condition."

Lin Ou gave a bitter smile. He sat in the chair, pale-faced and utterly exhausted: "To eradicate these viruses, we need a brain-computer interface to enter a virtual hacker space, but with my current mental strength, even if I got in, it would be useless..."

Chairman: "......"

"Furthermore, Gao Shenxue has definitely rewritten and upgraded the virus code," Lin Ou said. "My original cracking program is definitely useless now..."

"Enough with the nonsense." The chairman said sternly, "If you don't use the virus you created, who will? No matter what, by any means necessary, at any cost, you must preserve the company's assets in the virtual cyberspace!"

With that, the chairman waved his hand.

Several burly security guards in suits rushed over, came to Lin Ou's side, and forcibly pressed him into a chair.

Lin Ou was startled: "Chairman, no..."

Several burly men in suits held him down tightly and forcibly put a high-tech helmet on him, connecting him to a brain-computer interface.

"Don't......"

"Uh......"

Lin Ou's pupils turned pure white, and he quickly sank into the virtual world of the internet.

"..."

"Aaaaaah...!!!!"

About ten minutes passed.

Lin Ou let out a shrill and mournful scream.

The device connected to his brain-computer interface exploded slightly, scattering sparks.

The high-tech helmet on his head emitted wisps of smoke and soon became completely unusable.

After struggling and tearing at the air with both hands on the chair several times, Lin Ou tilted his head to the side, his body went limp, and he became completely still.

Carl checked his properties panel.

Health has dropped to 0%...

“Dead.” Karl looked at the chairman.

"Useless." The chairman's face was ashen. He paused, then said in a deep voice, "...However, at least you bought us a dozen minutes. How are things with the other system technicians in the company?"

Carl opened the system panel, glanced at it, and then said, "They're already working together to remove the virus."

"Hmm." The chairman nodded.

At this moment, countless tangible data energies rapidly gathered and converged within the office.

Karl saw the visible data energy and his expression changed: "Chairman, look!"

The chairman looked up with a stern expression.

The data energy rapidly coalesced into a human shape.

The final data condensed into the appearance of a tall, slender girl.

Gao Shenxue suddenly appeared in front of everyone!

Chairman: "!"

Carl: "!!"

Orc Am: "..."

The security personnel in suits inside the room were all stunned and quickly surrounded the chairman: "Is this... a holographic virtual image?"

Gao Shenxue's fair, aloof, and breathtakingly beautiful face slowly rose. She hovered in mid-air, her eyes slowly opening, her obsidian-like pupils coldly staring at the group of people in the office.

“Gao Shenxue…” The chairman narrowed his eyes, looking at the super BOSS with the highest difficulty level in the game.

"It really is you, Number 03." The chairman leaned back and said coldly, "What, suddenly appearing in front of me, do you want to go back to the company?"

Gao Shenxue narrowed her eyes, staring at the chairman and carefully observing his face. She said in a completely emotionless voice, "I don't know you."

Then, the girl slowly raised her right hand.

Ten Herka swords, shimmering with nano-textured light, materialized from data and appeared beside her, aimed at the chairman, Karl, the orc Am, and others.

"Om-!"

Mechanical lightsabers were unleashed simultaneously, several beams of light slashing through the air!

As the screams of the security guards in suits rang out, several of their bodies were sliced ​​in two!

Their lower bodies quickly separated from their upper bodies, and the action of pulling out magic guns only stopped at the "pulling" stage, with the hands holding the guns separating from their arms!

Seven or eight security personnel lost their lives in an instant.

The chairman's desk was also cleaved in two!

The orc Am looked down at the scalpel in his hand, which had also broken in two and fell to the ground with a clatter.

Karl's pupils contracted.

It's not a holographic projection?!

Is this a physical object?

and......

Gao Shenxue has clearly absorbed hundreds of billions of trillions of data energy within the company's virtual network space.

At this moment, her level had soared from the first level of the Saint Realm to the peak of the ninth level of the Saint Realm!

"Ninth-tier Mechanical Skill - Nano Hunter!"

Behind Takayuki, dazzling spots of light bloomed, revealing a massive virtual data network.

Thousands of tiny nano missiles were downloaded from the other end of the data network, eventually materialized, and then were all launched toward the chairman and Karl!

"Boom boom ...
