Chapter: 511

Norah scoffed. Star probably believed his encryption was unbreakable and was likely reveling in his perceived success and potential financial gain.

Norah scrutinized the forum posts, her opinion of Star plummeting to rock bottom. Star was simply a regular guy eager to flaunt his newfound skills. He was probably clueless about the prison time he's facing.

Norah dived into Lochdeer International Bank's system and saw many data clerks at a standstill, unable to combat the system lockout.

Upon investigation, Norah realized the code was quite basic, something she had encountered in early forum hacks. It seemed no other hacker had reached this level of intrusion yet.

Norah wasn't interested in the specifics of the breach. Once her intervention was complete, she stepped back from the situation.

Thinking about Star's smug attitude, Norah felt frustrated. Star had only picked up some surface-level knowledge but was causing trouble nonetheless. If she didn't put him in his place, her reputation as the top hacker would suffer.

She swiftly unlocked the International Bank's system, granting its operations returned to normal. The data clerks gathered around the system were all amazed.

"What's going on? The system has been unlocked?"

"Who managed to unlock it? That's incredible.”

"Did someone actually remove the lock Star set on the system?"

"The system's back up and running. Someone must have intervened."

"It had to be Moon. Only Moon could bypass Star's security."

Norah returned to the hacker forum and saw a post stating that Moon had assisted Lochdeer International Bank in restoring the system's operation. The post was filled with other hackers praising Moon's expertise and generosity.

Hackers often resorted to profit-driven and unjustifiable attacks to fulfill their destructive goals.

Leveraging their expertise in computer systems, network technology, and various tools, they concealed themselves online, unleashing boundless malice.

Just as virtuous and malevolent individuals coexisted, some hackers disapproved of those who sowed social chaos for selfish ends, resorting to extortion and blackmail through the acquisition of private data. Those with a strong moral compass found such conduct reprehensible. Norah was one excellent example of having strong moral compass.

Within the hacker forum, opinions were divided regarding Star's recent attack against Lochdeer International Bank.

Some advocated for a carefree and indifferent approach akin to that of Star.

Others championed technical brilliance paired with a commitment to justice, echoing the ethos of Moon.

The two factions initiated a thread on the forum, sparking a heated debate under the title that read, "How do you view Moon's and Star's actions regarding the Lochdeer International Bank?"

A disheveled man slammed his fist against the table in frustration within a dim and cramped single room. “Curse Moon! Always meddling!"

This man was none other than the culprit of the chaos whose codename in hacking was Star. His meticulously crafted schemes had been foiled upon encountering Moon! Every effort he had exerted had unwittingly served to bolster Moon's reputation.

The more notorious the incident, the wider his own notoriety spread, and the same held true for Moon's virtue!

Star seethed with anger. After painstakingly mastering hacking techniques, he had finally ascended to the fifth position on the hacking leaderboard. He had seized an opportunity to target Lochdeer International Bank, poised to amass wealth, only for Moon to thwart his plans!
