Chapter 321: Chapter 320 Sudden! Electronic Intrusion! (Extra for Alliance Hierarch DUKE777!)

Incredible fervor still lingered in the air, refusing to dissipate for a long time.

But before they had time to rejoice, suddenly, Zhang Yuan heard a small cry of alarm. He quickly turned around, “What happened?”

A middle-aged professor, his face flushed with excitement, eyes wide open, pointed at the screen and said in a panic, “Amoeba Points, they seem to have increased!”

“Increased? What’s going on?”

“They’ve increased again!”

“More increases!!”

Those vivid insects suddenly began to swarm in massive numbers!

Seeing this, Zhang Yuan’s heart skipped a beat, and his first thought was that humans might have been deceived, or perhaps due to the operating environment, these digital life forms had mutated?

What’s going on? Why are they suddenly reproducing?

Before he could say anything, the insects on the computer screen completely vanished, and the entire screen began to flash wildly, swarmed with fast-moving garbled data, forming a torrent of information!

In the next second, almost all the computers in the communications room began to malfunction, with some machines even emitting a buzzing noise, clearly indicating noise from the whole unit overclocking!

This scream and the noise from the surrounding instruments made everyone stop their discussions, each looking clueless.

Many computer experts finally reacted and began to diagnose the faults.

“Captain, all the computers on the local network have been hit, causing all normal operations to grind to a halt!”

Zhang Yuan tensed up and shouted, “Not good,” as he secretly felt relieved that defense measures had already been put in place. He turned his head to a communications expert to confirm, “Are you sure this local network is physically isolated from the external network? That damn interstellar merchant might be deceitful!”

“I confirm! It has been divided into two physically isolated networks.” One of the professors called out in urgency, “Just pull out a few network cables, it’s that simple, and the electromagnetic communications in this room are very secure… Oh, right! The external communication radars can’t be shielded. Without those radars, we couldn’t possibly receive signals from the other side… Could it be the radars?”

“Then…” Zhang Yuan’s first thought was to notify the military and the Guardian Fleet outside, to guard against potential attacks from the adversary.

But apart from the beeps of dead air in his earpiece, there was no reply at all.

What’s happening?

He hurriedly rushed out of the room.

If the network has been divided into two physically isolated networks, theoretically an invasion on this local network shouldn’t impact the external network… What’s going on?

Nothing but dead air.

No responses, still no responses!

Upon closer inspection, his mobile phone screen had also become a chaotic mess, and the battery was scorching hot.

Cold sweat flowed down instantly.

Zhang Yuan kept his cool and commanded a soldier following him, “Old Guo, go check on the state of our external network system. See if the cars can still run; if not, switch to manual driving mode immediately. Guard our weapons, and should they actually launch an attack, you’re authorized to use any weapons to counterattack!”

“Understood!”

Colonel Guo, clad in Power Armor, responded to Zhang Yuan and led a squad of soldiers leaping through the corridor.

Suddenly, there was a soft “snap,” and the mechanical gear seemed to have simultaneously collapsed, becoming rigid statewide, crashing against the walls, tumbling in all directions.

After the soldiers struggled to get out of their Power Armors for a minute, they all got out cursing and swearing.

“Captain, the Power Armor’s computer systems have crashed, they’ve turned into a pile of scrap metal!”

Only then did Zhang Yuan realize the grave situation, it might be more serious than imagined, the external network was also under attack!

If all communication networks were paralyzed, running from one end of the Kunlun Mountain spaceship to the other would be like the length of a marathon, requiring several hours!

In the age of information warfare, without information, without data, it’s like a person blinded, what’s the point of fighting!

He almost roared, “Get in the car quickly, check the status of the entire spaceship! If all communication equipment is cut off, then use the most primitive light communication! Notify the surrounding escort ships as soon as possible!”

“Understood!”

Watching the group of soldiers scatter and sprint, Zhang Yuan immediately returned to the communication room, “Li Zhendong, what the hell is going on? Didn’t we physically isolate everything?”

“It’s Digital Life! It must be those Digital Life screwing with us, they’ve just invaded our communication system!”

Li Zhendong was sweating profusely with urgency, “Our microwave radar is transmitting unknown signals at high power! But no one is operating these radars, I suspect that these signals are exactly the meddling of those Digital Life…”

“We made a mistake! The so-called physical isolation didn’t protect against this at all. These things can actually spread through electromagnetic waves!”

“Turn off the radar!” Zhang Yuan shouted, his face flushing red.

“It’s already off, but it’s too late…” Li Zhendong said with a bitter face, almost ready to cry.

It wasn’t just the microwave radar, including all cell phones and base stations, all were transmitting all kinds of signals, and it was impossible to turn everything off in half a moment!

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan’s pupils dilated slightly.

“Are you saying, anywhere that can receive signals could be invaded?”

“How could it…”

This fact was simply beyond human imagination.

“What about our firewalls? Are they all just for show?”

Li Zhendong stammered and struggled to speak; he was beginning to question life itself.

Human firewalls in the face of this kind of Digital Life were like paper, utterly ineffective!

“What about our military networks?” Seeing that Li Zhendong didn’t respond, Zhang Yuan swallowed, and asked again.

“I don’t know… But any electronic device capable of receiving signals could be attacked! How would I know how long the military network can hold up… Even unmanned cars might be paralyzed!”

“No good, can’t contact… It’s over, everything’s gone to hell at once.”

Zhang Yuan was so stressed that the veins on his forehead were throbbing, and he kicked out, “Get up, stop your whining!”

Instead of regretting here, blaming whose fault it was, it would be better to calm down and try our best to reduce the risk to the lowest point.

This sudden attack they faced was far too tricky. The entire Kunlun Mountain with signal-receiving electronic devices, such as unmanned cars, cell phones, communication networks, there might not be hundreds of millions, but there were tens of millions, and now all were paralyzed, what to do?

“Cut the power, try to cut off the power to all high-powered transmitters!”

He refused to believe that with so many capable and wise people, they couldn’t deal with this group of Digital Life!

But the trouble wasn’t just with Digital Life.

Given the enemy had already launched a special electronic attack, and humans were caught off guard due to insufficient experience, then… war would quickly follow!

“You, you, you, come with me!”

Zhang Yuan singled out a group of people and rushed out of the room; now was not the time to worry about so much, the most important thing…

Communication!

Notify everyone!
