When Li Bai, who accidentally activated the Great Word Spirit Technique skill, brought Yang Jia back to the spaceport, the place was already in chaos.
Because it's so crucial, the spaceport's operating system is self-contained. Now, with the core hardware destroyed, the software stored within it has vanished along with it. Repairing the system and getting the spaceport up and running again in a short period of time is practically impossible.
"What's going on?" Li Bai asked.
If a system under their control was suddenly compromised by someone who had infiltrated, it would indicate that their security system was truly awful. But that was still considered a good thing. If it was an internal attack, it would mean that there was a traitor within their core team, and the consequences would be even more disastrous.
Bai Ting said, "Someone must have hidden in the spaceport, escaped detection, and waited until the situation calmed down before sneaking out and destroying the system."
"Where are the people?"
"Dead." Bai Ting's face was grim. "It seemed like the other party also realized that he couldn't escape, so he committed suicide after destroying the system."
At least it wasn't the worst. Li Bai thought for a moment and asked, "Have you found out his identity?"
"I've found him on the list of spaceport staff," Bai Ting said. "He was previously in charge of this area, so he's very familiar with it. There's so much machinery here, and it could easily break down if you're not careful, so we weren't very thorough during our previous inspection. We were planning to go through it again in detail this afternoon after the person in charge arrives."
In the end, the other party didn't even wait until then.
Or was it because they knew someone was coming in the afternoon that they took a gamble and destroyed the system in advance?
This move was indeed a very clever one. Originally, occupying the spaceport was to gain the advantage of communicating with the outside world, but now, their access to the outside world had also been cut off.
But more importantly, there was the spacecraft that would arrive tomorrow afternoon. Although it was not impossible for the spacecraft to make an emergency landing without system guidance, after all, there was no one to guide them when landing on an alien planet, this would inevitably cause shock and damage to the spacecraft.
If it was just an ordinary spaceship, it wouldn't matter, but now the ship is full of precious evolutionary vaccines. If the vaccine bottles are shattered, the losses will be immeasurable.
"Have you seen the system here before?" Li Bai asked Yang Jia.
Repairing the hardware wasn't difficult; after all, there were spare parts readily available; all that was needed was replacement. However, a destroyed system couldn't be rebuilt manually in a short period of time. However, even if human labor couldn't do it, Yang Jia might be able to.
"I've seen it, but I'm not sure about rebuilding it." Yang Jia said carefully.
"We can only bite the bullet and give it a try now," Li Bai said. "Otherwise, we can only force the spacecraft to land, and then use a small flying car to transport it after it reaches a low altitude. But I'm worried that this will cause even bigger problems."
"You mean, someone might take advantage of the spacecraft's forced landing to snatch it?" Yang Jia frowned.
Li Bai said, "If they knew what was being delivered this time."
Honestly, they hadn't expected to keep the news of the Evolution Vaccine secret forever. After all, with more and more people in the know, the chances of it leaking out, whether intentionally or unintentionally, were growing ever greater. But because they had already taken various measures, Li Bai had assumed they could hold out for at least a month.
But now it seems that she underestimated the enemy's power.
After all, they are all major forces that have been operating on Earth for many years. The relationships between them are intricate and there are many ways to deal with them. Even if they are in a passive position because of a sudden attack from their side, they must be trying to infiltrate and counterattack.
Even if the news about the vaccine hadn't leaked, their occupation of the spaceport itself was like pointing the way, telling them that something very important was there. In this case, sending someone to test the waters was perfectly normal.
Regardless, the vaccine couldn't be lost. If Yang Jia could manage to fix the system, the spacecraft would land under the system's guidance in a matter of minutes, making it impossible to organize a proper attack. However, a forced landing would take at least half an hour, with too many variables.
Yang Jia tapped his solar plexus with his index finger, thought for a moment, and then said, "Then I'll give it a try. But Li Bai, have you ever thought of using this incident to directly announce the news about the vaccine?"
"You mean disrupting the enemy's morale? That's a good suggestion, we can consider it. But this batch of vaccines must be kept. We need to strengthen our strength." Li Bai said, "This news can only disrupt them if we have an overwhelming advantage. Otherwise, it might even arouse their ferocity. But then again, if we have an overwhelming advantage, this news won't matter."
Therefore, this batch of vaccines cannot be lost. It is best to repair the system before the spacecraft arrives and smoothly hand over. Otherwise, a fierce battle is inevitable, and it will have a great impact on the future operation arrangements.
"I understand." Yang Jia said, "I'll stay here and try to restore the system. You go ahead and do your work. We have to make some arrangements."
Before leaving, Li Bai walked over, stroked Yang Jia's face, and whispered, "Don't worry too much. Just do your best. Leave the rest to me."
That being said, Yang Jia couldn't really let Li Bai clean up the mess without a clear conscience, so he had to use all his abilities. Fortunately, the system's memory was different from a human's. A human's memory would beautify, modify, or even ignore some of the content they saw, but the system wouldn't.
The system data wasn't difficult; the key was the calculation method. If the algorithm wasn't right, even the slightest error could result in massive losses. This put Yang Jia under immense pressure. If she wasn't absolutely certain, she'd rather abandon the plan. But she couldn't guarantee 100% success.
But for Yang Jia, this pressure was also motivation. If she hadn't been in this environment, she wouldn't have been able to fully exploit her abilities.
After the entire system was rebuilt, although he was not sure whether it was successful, Yang Jia still felt a sense of pride in his heart.
For a long time before this, although she had done a lot, Yang Jia was also at a loss. Because she had never found a way of action that suited her, she could only try to piece it together, borrowing the help of others to create a hodgepodge. Although she succeeded by chance in the end, Yang Jia didn't think she would be so successful if she had to do it again.
She once tried to learn Li Bai's fighting style, but it turned out that it was not suitable for her.
It was not until now that Yang Jia vaguely found a little feeling.
Perhaps what suits her best is to work like a system, obtaining and filtering information from a vast network, and then using it to achieve her own goals without the need for direct combat.
——Perhaps something was destined the day she was born from the system, but it had never been discovered before.
If Yang Jia was alone, she might not choose this method even if it was suitable, but she had Li Bai by her side, and the lineup of one DPS and one support was just right.
Furthermore, the spaceport incident had taught Yang Jia a profound lesson: in critical moments, daily accumulation was paramount. She hadn't been a system administrator for long, and wasn't even accustomed to it yet. Therefore, she hadn't made a habit of backing up everything she'd collected. Otherwise, restoring a destroyed system would only take a moment.
Maybe we should focus more on this in the future.
The newly built system underwent several test runs, and no problems were found. As a precaution, Li Bai even dispatched a spacecraft, which eventually landed successfully.
But Yang Jia was not satisfied with this.
Just as Li Bai had analyzed, their presence at the spaceport would be highly conspicuous to the enemy, who would surely guess their purpose. Even if they didn't know the shipment was an evolutionary vaccine, they would still come to sabotage it.
She couldn't control other aspects, but at least she couldn't let them tamper with the system again.
If the other party really dares to attack the system, she will at least teach him a lesson and let him know that she is not someone to be trifled with.
Once she had deconstructed the entire system, Yang Jia's mind immediately flooded with ideas, each one capable of leaving the enemy bleeding. So, from that night until the next morning, she worked tirelessly, leading her men to set trap after trap, ensuring that no matter how the enemy tried to dodge, they would inevitably fall.
When everything was complete, Yang Jia reviewed the entire system. Thinking of the plight of the enemy trapped in these traps, she couldn't help but feel a sense of smugness and pride. But she quickly came to her senses and couldn't help but secretly say "Oh no!".
She found that she seemed to enjoy the feeling of cheating others.
This is not good, not good...
But an ancient said that one should treat the enemy as ruthlessly as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, so even if they are tricked, it is just their bad luck... right?
As a system worker, Yang Jia could work non-stop, but her body couldn't. So, although she was mentally excited, after doing everything she could, the tension in her heart relaxed, and she couldn't help but fall into a deep sleep.
Even though there was a very fierce battle afterwards, it failed to wake her up and she fell asleep.
It was not until the next morning, when everything had settled, that she woke up to the smell of gunpowder.
