Chapter 13 The Fear of Troy

Feng Xiaotian didn't think much, but Professor Vincent was a little puzzled at this moment. After tracking Troy's address, he entered the New York Times website and carefully checked the traces left on the website. Soon, he found that the website was embedded with a virus-killing tool. Professor Vincent was a little confused: What's going on? Why is there this thing on the website?

Another question plagued Professor Vinson: Who was the mysterious person who fought with Troy? Through supercomputer monitoring, Troy launched an extremely large flood attack at that time, but the data flow of this person was negligible. How did he resolve Troy's attack?

Professor Vinson knew very well that the best way to deal with flood attacks is flood attacks. Only by fighting hard can one ensure his survival. However, this mysterious figure did not launch a flood attack at all. How did he defeat Troy under such circumstances?

Professor Vinson thought for a long time but couldn't get the answer, but he always had this idea in his mind: the other party must be an extremely powerful master, and Troy himself is not bad. No matter what method he used to defeat Troy, this has proved his strength.

The American Cybersecurity Center has divided all known hackers into five levels: S, A, B, C, and D. Troy belongs to B. Of course, he is one of the most powerful people in B. If his attack method was not too single, he would be afraid that his level would be improved. However, such a master did not have the slightest ability to fight back in front of this mysterious character, so this mysterious character was engraved in Professor Vincent's mind.

At about 2 p.m. US time, the New York Times released the news of this hacker war. They condemned the hackers' actions and called on the country to increase the crackdown on hackers. A news report was written similarly to a battle manifesto. It seemed that under the threat of hackers, the United States was about to be destroyed.

Feng Xiaotian was not aware of all this. He had turned off his computer and went to bed. After working hard for most of the night, Feng Xiaotian felt a little tired. Not long after he went to bed, he fell asleep.

At 2:30 p.m. local time in the United States, Troy was arrested by FBI agents and sent to a secret trial agency to deal with hackers. The FBI naturally had a special procedure. Troy knew that his IP address was exposed and did not escape. Even if he ran away, it would not last long. Since that is the case, it would be better to face everything calmly.

In the secret trial agency, Troy met Professor Vincent. Troy seemed quite relaxed. He said the first sentence after the two met: "Hello Professor Vincent, I didn't expect that we would meet in such a situation."

Professor Vinson smiled slightly when he heard this. He sat down on the chair opposite Troy, and then said, "Troy, you have always been relatively restrained, but today you made a big mistake. You shouldn't launch such a large-scale hacking attack, and you shouldn't choose the New York Times as the target."

Troy laughed and said, "Professor Vincent, you only said half of the sentence right, and I can't agree with the latter. It's nothing to choose the New York Times as the target. My biggest mistake is to underestimate your abilities. I didn't expect that there were such masters among you, and I was convinced."

Professor Vincent naturally knew that Troy was talking about the mysterious person who fought with him, but unfortunately, Professor Vincent didn't know who this person is at the moment. After thinking about it, Professor Vincent raised his own question: "Troy, I really want to know how you had a conflict with him. If you don't mind, can you tell me?"

Troy was stunned when he heard this, and saw him hesitate and said, "What? He is not yours?"

As a master of hackers, Troy is naturally very capable of logical analysis. Hearing Professor Vincent's words, he immediately noticed the problem.

Professor Vincent smiled and had no intention of hiding it. He only heard him say, "He is not our person, and we don't even know who he is. For the moment, we know nothing about his situation, so I want to understand the conflict between you and maybe infer his identity information from it."

Troy was silent when he heard this, then sighed and said, "Okay, there is no need for me to hide anything - I spent more than two months writing a Trojan virus and embedded it on the New York Times webpage this morning - can you give me a computer? I want to introduce you to how this virus works."

Professor Vincent seemed generous when he heard this, and immediately asked someone to bring a laptop. Troy turned on the computer, connected it to his own database, and directly adjusted the virus out. Then he started talking with a gaze. Professor Vincent knew that Troy had a high attainment in virus programs, so he listened very carefully. When Troy finished speaking, Professor Vincent nodded repeatedly and said, "It's worthy of being Trojan. This virus is already quite powerful. At least it has exceeded the boundaries of Trojan viruses and is a bit similar to a worm virus."

Troy smiled and said, "Thank you for your affirmation. Since you have a deep understanding of this virus, how long does it take to crack it?"

Professor Vinson heard this and pondered for a moment before saying, "I am not an expert in this field, so I don't know much about it. However, judging from the characteristics of this virus, I think it is not that easy for even professionals to crack it."

Troy nodded proudly when he heard this, and laughed and said, "You are right. Even the creator of the virus program, I have worked a lot to find a way to crack it, but-"

Troy paused at this point, with a thoughtful look on his face. After a while he sighed: "But... less than half an hour after I embedded this virus on the New York Times website, this person had cracked it."

Troy's tone seemed helpless and depressed. After all, this was the fuse for his arrest. Thinking that the other party was cracking the virus so quickly, all Troy's pride disappeared without a trace. He had only fear in his heart, yes, fear!

He has always felt that he was a top expert in this regard. It is undeniable that the truth is indeed the case. In the hacking world, if we want to talk about the familiarity with the virus, Troy can definitely be ranked in the top three. But unfortunately, until today, he finally understood: he is just a jumping clown, and he is a scumbag in front of this mysterious character!
