Lin Rui also thinks that things in the world are really wonderful. He only recently lamented that his team needs a good hacker. Today, his base is getting taken over by a hacker.
The network of the guardian base started out as Lin Rui’s own defense at first. Later, after forming an alliance with Tony, J.A.R.V.I.S helped raise the firewall. However, he did not expect that it would still get attacked by someone. It can only be said that there are still many smart people in this world.
“Mr. Sky’s Eye, that’s your nickname. What are you doing hacking into our network?” Lin Rui asks calmly, looking across the screen at the young man.
Fortunately, Lin Rui is accustomed to wearing a mask even in the Guardian Base. Otherwise, he may have been seen by the opposite guy. Lin Rui did not believe that this was the first time he had attacked their network. On the other side, Jack didn’t care much about his face being seen. His identity was made for him as a secret killer from an early age. He didn’t believe that a hacker would find him in reality after seeing his face. And, even if someone found Jack, there is nothing to worry about, after all, there is an entire Frankenstein Family between him and that person.
“Mirage Knight, my sincerest apologies for having attacked your network without your consent. However, this is the only way I could reach you.” Hearing Lin Rui’s words, the person at the other end of the screen first apologized, then went on to explain why he had hacked their network: he wanted to contact the League of Defender.
“Contact us? Do you need anything?” Lin Rui frowned when he heard Sky’s Eye’s apology, and then asked.
It seems that Jack may be right, this guy does not look malicious. If the guy calling himself Sky’s Eye is really dangerous to the League of Defender, Lin Rui would be forced to ask JARVIS to do something. Lin Rui is still confident in the Advanced intelligence of JARVIS and he knows that JARVIS would be able to take care of him.
“Well, in fact, I am one of the moderators of the League of Defender forum. I have always admired what you guys have done, and I just want to ask, can I join you? Don’t worry, I know that I won’t be able to fight but my hacking skills are pretty good!” Seeing Mirage Knight asking him, Sky’s Eye shouted his request somewhat shyly. In the end, it seemed that his qualifications were not enough in front of Mirage Knight, and he quickly added a sentence to show that he was not an ordinary person.
Hearing Sky’s Eye’s words, and then looking at his serious expression, Lin Rui and Jack beside him looked at each other tacitly.
“Is it really god’s will for you?” That’s what Jack means when he looks at Lin Rui. Lin Rui also told him a few days ago that their team lacks a good hacker and he asked Jack to pay attention to whether there is anyone trustworthy in the Frankenstein Family who can join them.
“Probably, this guy also seems to have a protagonist halo over him!” Lin Rui answers in his mind as he looked into Jack’s eyes, but it’s up to Jack to understand what he means.
“Well, are you our fan?” Lin Rui put away the surprise on his face and looked at Sky’s Eye and asked.
“Yes! Spiderman and Mirage Knight, I helped build and maintain your fan’s site later, and I spent a lot of time building the Guardian forum with a few other friends.” Sky’s Eye replied seriously as if he is trying to sell himself.
“Furthermore, I also know that you have secretly done a lot of things that are not available online. For example, you have fought against Wilson’s underworld empire and the Vampire race. These are things that are not available online and ordinary people would not know but I know them. You have been secretly protecting the safety of New York and the entire American people, which is why I worship you and want to join you.” After revealing his admiration for the League of Defender, Sky’s Eye said something that surprised Lin Rui and Jack again.
What Sky’s Eye said about Vampires and Wilson’s empire is not something that ordinary people can know at all. Apart from ordinary people, even people in some special departments can hardly access this information. And Mirage Knight, Spiderman’s fans website and the League of Defender forum have no information about this. Lin Rui doesn’t want to expose these too dark things to the public as he doesn’t know how Sky’s Eye was able to get this information.
“Ok, ok, I know what you’re doing. But it’s not that easy to join us.” Suppressing his surprise, Lin Rui looks at Sky’s Eye and speaks calmly.
“I know! I know! There must be a test to join your team! But I believe I can gain your trust as a good teammate!” Sky’s Eye shouted with excitement after hearing Lin Rui’s words.
“Okay, I understand what you mean. So, let’s talk about this in person, do you know where our base is?” Waving to Sky’s Eye on the other side of the screen, Lin Rui asked.
In fact, after chatting with Sky’s Eye for a while, Lin Rui had almost accepted this powerful hacker in his heart. But he still needs to be tested carefully. Lin Rui won’t let an untrustworthy person join the team.
“Uh, do you have a base? I don’t know, although I tracked this IP, your network defense is also very strong, and I cannot locate an accurate address. Speaking of which, the defense of your network is similar to that of Stark Industries. It’s just a lot weaker compared to them.” Shaking his head, Sky’s Eye says he does not know Lin Rui’s location. And he can see that their cyber defense has something to do with the Stark corporation. It seems that Sky’s Eye must have been fighting against JARVIS, and he didn’t know how many times has he been secretly fighting JARVIS?
“Well, let’s do this. Two days later, you are …” Lin Rui was a little relieved to hear Sky’s Eye’s answer, or they might have to consider changing bases.
“Well! I’ll wait there early!”
Lin Rui then tells Sky’s Eye that they will bring him over and make him wait in one place. Hearing that he could finally see his hero with his own eyes, Sky’s Eye seemed very excited and said that he would certainly wait for him early.
After another brief conversation, Lin Rui hung up the video call. Before hanging up, Lin Rui asked Sky’s Eye not to control their network, so that Lin Rui and others could have some privacy in the base. Sky’s Eye agreed of course, and the laptop recovered quickly after the call was ended.
However, Lin Rui is not so trusting. After the call, he simply shuts down any network on the base, either wireless or wired, to ensure that no one can break in again. After doing all of this, Lin Rui solemnly sat down with Jack.
“What are you going to do about this? Just accept him?” Jack looked at Lin Rui and asked as he himself had no opinion anyway.
“Let’s take a look first and then we’ll talk about it. I can’t decide this thing alone, but everyone needs to look at it together.” Glancing at the laptop on the table that has been completely powered off and shut down, Lin Rui said seriously.
