Chapter 812 But Arabella didn't know him. His voice was unfamiliar, causing her to look at him quizzically.
"Your firewall might not hold up against the next attack. | want to give it a try" What? Did this guy just challenge the brand new firewall that Alex had just established? Were these two tech giants clashing? The director was baffled. Should he intervene? What if this guy actually broke through the firewall and left their system open to foreign attacks? "Don't worry. If | break it, I'll build you a new one.” The man's tone was relaxed, as if navigating through a few firewalls was as simple as grabbing a burger and a soda.
"You won't break it,” Arabella stated bluntly.

"So, what do you say? Up for the challenge?" Arabella thought the man had too much free time. "It's not a question of courage. It's that you can't win." The man laughed mischievously, seemingly intrigued by her audacity. "Do you even know who | am?" Was there a firewall he, the proclaimed top hacker of Astronisia, couldn't crack? Arabella didn't know who he was, nor did she care.
The man's smirk deepened. "Watch closely." His fingers quickly typed a series of codes, and the system responded promptly.
[Tik, tik, tik. Firewall under attack.] Many hearts skipped a beat.
When Clark made his move, how many seconds could Alex's firewall last? Probably not even a few seconds, considering it was hastily established.
It must be as fragile as glass.
Arabella didn't want to waste her time with him, but seeing his blind self-confidence, she decided to stay and enjoy the show.
Soon, a minute passed.
The man's smirk had frozen. This was taking much longer than he'd anticipated! Another minute passed.

The crowd's disbelief grew. Wasn't this guy touted as the top hacker in Astronisia? How come he couldn't even break through the outer layer of the firewall after two minutes?? Had they overestimated him, or was he a fraud?? Was he the real "Clark"? The third minute passed.
Arabella turned to leave, no longer willing to waste her time.
"Wait, Miss." The man was taken aback. He'd dominated the hacking industry for years, only to be scoffed at by a young girl! Worse still, she didn't even pause. She simply turned and walked away, leaving him red-faced.
Five layers of firewall, and he hadn't broken through a single one after three minutes! "Miss, I'm talking to you." Seeing Arabella continue to walk away, he turned to the director.
But the director quickly followed Arabella, not to stop her, but rather to escort her out.
"Alex, don't take it to heart. Clark just hasn't met a worthy opponent in along time." "Who?" Arabella was slightly surprised at the mention of the name.
"Clark." So, the arrogant cocky young man who was acting all high and mighty was the famous top hacker of Astronisia, Clark? That was all he's got?
