Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Paying Respects to the Big Boss
When Nina Quinn and Nathan Jacobs were grappling with each other, Ollie put away his phone and couldn’t wait to open another computer, eager to use his skills to find information on July Quinn.
However, as soon as he turned on the computer, the screen suddenly went black, and the little chicken appeared, leaving droppings.
The droppings enlarged infinitely, the computer crackled and began to emit smoke.
Eventually, the computer burned out completely, and the droppings disappeared along with it.
Another computer was wasted!
But instead of feeling distressed, Ollie was so excited he shed two lines of tears: "Oh my god, this is it, this is it! I really provoked Lord Muck!"
The Lord Muck virus, which caused countless people in Aethelgard to be petrified five years ago!
Once invaded, no matter the data inside the computer or the computer itself, would be rendered absolutely useless.
No matter how skilled a programmer is found to rescue it, there is no remedy.
Moreover, the computers that fell victim were mostly those belonging to prominent family leaders in Aethelgard, and the economic crime shattered the legal bottom line.
Their computers typically held a lot of important data and ledgers.
After being hit by the Lord Muck virus, these ledgers and data would be directly sent to the department in Aethelgard specialized in investigating economic crimes.
Soon after, relevant personnel would be at the door to arrest them.
Therefore, industry rumors suggest that the Lord Muck virus was likely designed by people from the economic crime investigation department.
Thus, in response to the Lord Muck virus, and to dodge the investigation, those influential family leaders in Aethelgard had established a fund association dedicated to cracking the Lord Muck virus and finding the person who created it.
Once the virus is cracked and the creator is tracked down, not only would there be a huge cash reward, but supreme glory as well.
Such tempting incentives have driven countless programmers and hackers to madly study the virus.
Yet to this day, no one has been able to crack it.
As a result, the Lord Muck virus has become the number one virus on the COMEX list.
The hacker behind the Lord Muck virus has become a legend, a supreme idol in the hearts of countless hackers.
And Ollie is one of those who idolizes Lord Muck.
Even though he is from an ancient family in Aethelgard, he’s been rebellious since childhood.
Especially at the age of twenty, when he learned about Lord Muck’s "moving" exploits, he determined to become a hacker like Lord Muck.
Thus, he disregarded his family’s opposition to study abroad in Aphelion.
Only by breaking free from family control could he better and more freely learn hacking techniques.
Facts proved his decision was right.
Now, he has also become a member of the COMEX list.
Unfortunately, Lord Muck has vanished.
Indeed, since the world-shaking attack five years ago, Lord Muck hasn’t appeared again.
Even the Lord Muck virus hasn’t been seen again in its native land, Aethelgard.
To meet Lord Muck, Ollie who had fought hard to climb onto the COMEX list, also somewhat suspected whether the boss had passed away.
For this reason, Ollie was once disappointed, planning to return home and inherit his billion-dollar fortune.
However, on the very first day of his return to the family estate, both of his computers were burned.
And facts also proved, the attack on him was indeed the Lord Muck virus!
Lord Muck isn’t dead!
He broke into laughter through tears.
He could only use his phone to briefly search information on July Quinn and then booked a ticket to Aphelion...
Yes! No matter what, he must meet Lord Muck.
That’s the reason for him to have this journey in the world.

Meanwhile, at Jacobs Tower—
The weekly meeting on the progress of the Caelan Sea project was about to start.
Kyle Keaton was already at the conference table, looking through related documents.
At this moment, Miles Jacobs suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "When will Mrs. Keaton return to work at the company?"
