Chapter 242 The Shadow Never Disappeared

It seems that, over time, some people have probably forgotten what she said!

Then, in the blink of an eye, he vanished from the spot without leaving a trace.

After the Chinese delegation returned, they found the leader and several important elders standing below. As soon as they went down, they were taken inside.

Meanwhile, Mu Qinghe was also in the crowd. Listening to their excited words, a smile involuntarily appeared on her face, and she was deeply moved.

For some reason, although he had never met the mysterious supervisor, he had a gut feeling from their descriptions that it was Sister Xi.

He then received a message on his phone.

Hearing the special message tone, Mu Qinghe couldn't wait to open it. His handsome face beamed with a smile that grew wider and wider, even the corners of his eyes seemed to burst into flower shapes.

[Sister Xi: Don't worry, I've got everything covered.]

.......

Washington, D.C., White House Situation Room.

A blinding red light flashed on the huge monitoring screen. Fine beads of sweat appeared on the National Security Advisor's forehead, and his hands trembled so much that he could barely hold the coffee cup.

"Mr. President, we have lost control of our defense systems." His voice was hoarse. "Not just us, but island nations, E-nation, F-nation... the core systems of all countries were compromised at the same time."

The president's face was ashen. He stared intently at the screen. Suddenly, all the surveillance footage flickered simultaneously, and a line of elegant silver text slowly appeared:

"Some people may have forgotten me, but I have never disappeared."

“This line of text…” The National Security Advisor’s pupils contracted sharply. “It’s exactly the same as the message in the ‘mysterious’ incident more than twenty years ago!”

The president recalled the message from his country's delegation.

Could it be that the shadow has actually appeared?

London, MI6 headquarters.

"Sir, the intruders' methods..." The young technician swallowed hard, "are exactly the same as 'Shadow's' methods from over twenty years ago."

"Impossible!" The commander stood up abruptly. "'Shadow' has already disappeared, hasn't it? More than twenty years ago, the entire area there vanished..."

“But sir,” the technician pulled up a piece of code, “look at this signature, it’s a unique mark of ‘Shadow,’ and she also left a message.” The technician took a deep breath and brought the screen back to its initial state.

"Some people may have forgotten me, but I have never disappeared."

Moscow, KGB headquarters.

"Have you found the source of the invasion?" The commander's voice was filled with suppressed anger.

“The other party used quantum encryption technology.” The IT engineer’s voice trembled. “Moreover… we found a coordinate in the code, but I feel that this coordinate is a bit strange, as if the other party deliberately revealed it.”

The general leaned closer to the screen, and when he clearly saw the coordinates, his expression changed drastically.

It was once an island deep within country X. More than twenty years ago, "Shadow" disappeared there, and the entire island vanished without a trace. Many explorers tried to find it, but all to no avail. Gradually, the story became a legend, a myth known only to the older generation. They believed it was a real event.

However, as the geographical location disappeared, it could not be verified and was gradually forgotten.

However, to my surprise, these coordinates reappeared.

Tokyo, Cabinet Information and Research Office.

"Report!" An agent rushed into the conference room. "We've located the source of the intruder's signal!"

"Where!"

“In…” the agent’s voice suddenly became hesitant, “in the deepest part of the dark web, an encrypted node that we have never discovered before.”

A deathly silence fell over the conference room. Everyone knew that 'Shadow' was the most mysterious entity on the dark web, and that it had vanished during the great battle more than twenty years ago.

And now it has reappeared with the same method.

Based on 'Shadow's' methods, he shouldn't be able to find out, which means...

The agent sensed the deathly silence. He opened his mouth to say what he wanted to say, but no words came out.

Just then, the island nation's team walked in, their faces full of anger.

"What bad luck! I didn't get anything today and even got beaten up. I can't swallow this. It must be China's doing."

The captain spoke first, and everyone immediately noticed the wound on his face.

"Weren't you going to discuss talent allocation? How did you end up like this?"

"And you're still talking? I pressed the button, why didn't you come over and let her take the people of China and leave our country in broad daylight?" The captain's tone was somewhat dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to show it too obviously in front of the highest ruler.

"A button? It wasn't triggered. We haven't received any information," suddenly, the ruler seemed to realize something. "Who... is this 'she' you just mentioned?"

Although the captain was puzzled by his words, he still replied, "A woman who calls herself some kind of mysterious supervisor."

Mentioning her still makes him feel a dull ache in his body.

"What?" Upon hearing this, the ruler stood up in shock. "She... she really appeared."

The other people in the conference room also looked at the team members with shock, and a hint of fear flashed across their faces.

So many years have passed, and probably only these old bones know how powerful 'Shadow' is.

Thinking about these several unusual celestial phenomena, they suddenly realized the truth.

The last time the 'shadow' appeared, it seemed like the same strange phenomenon occurred. No, this time it seems to be much more powerful.

That's why all the countries tacitly blocked this news.

It seems that the other party has begun to feel dissatisfied. However, so many years have passed, and their development is different from before. They are no longer easy targets.

At that time, other countries also repaired their security systems.

Looking at the complete security system, I instantly felt much more at ease.

'Shadow,' whether you return again or are just bluffing, the same methods won't affect us anymore.

Little did anyone know that Lin Xi, behind the computer, was leisurely sitting at the computer desk, looking at the security systems that those countries had already fixed, and couldn't help but sneer.

People just don't know how to be grateful; they've forgotten when they asked for help from us.

But since they're not listening, we'll beat them until they do.

At this moment, Lin Xi's eyes revealed an aura of domineering arrogance, and the moonlight shone down, falling on her and adding a touch of divinity to her.

At this moment, Lin Xi was unaware that other countries had begun to formulate a series of plans targeting China and her. However, even if she knew, Lin Xi would not care; at worst, she would simply speed up her collection of faith points.

That's right, she has successfully leveled up to level 10, and the entire system has undergone a complete transformation...
