Battlefield Contract Worker

"Then why did nsa ask us to do this?" Jiangan frowned. ? Eight? One Chinese? W≤W≤W≤. ≤8=1≈Z≈W≠. ≥COM

"Because of my existence. They think I can find a shadow broker." Cobain shrugged, "It was said to be the suggestion of Mr. K from the CIA. They gave us a good price, and there were other targets for me and me. A personal benefit to the team."

"Personal benefit?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Yes, the **** order against me. According to them, my team and I have committed at least two hundred major cybersecurity crimes. Enough for me to serve more than ten years in prison." Cobain sighed, "They said that as long as this task can be done this time, they will help me get the ****, and all the previous things will be written off."

"They spent so much money to capture a hacker group?" Lin Rui shook his head.

"Dude, we're talking about cyber warfare tools. Think about the role of cyber in modern warfare. A single set of code can take down a command center with thousands of troops. Make satellites inoperable and Air Force fighter jets unable to take off. , the command of the 6th Army is in chaos, and the drones that Americans are proud of are out of control. This is modern cyber warfare, and our African buddies who are fighting the world with ak47 are not in the same era. And these uses What do you think is the value of a computer virus for cyber warfare?" Kishi shrugged.

Lin Rui sighed, "Listening to this, I feel like I've become an old guy who was eliminated."

"You're not old enough, but you're not advanced enough. Besides, you have a specialization in surgery." Cobain smiled.

"Well, what intelligence do the Americans have. Where should we go to catch these people?" Lin Rui frowned.

"It's not in the United States, so the Yankees thought of us." Cobain shrugged, "It is reported that the shadow brokers are going to hold an auction at the end of this month to publicly sell the top secret documents they obtained from the nsa formula organization— —Cerberus virus. This is probably the most powerful computer virus out there, a nuclear weapon in cyber warfare.”

"What is the United States going to do?" Lin Rui frowned.

"The NSA cannot unilaterally disarm everything - just as the U.S. will not abandon Tomahawk even if the Tomahawk cruise missile falls into the hands of an adversary. Nor will the NSA disarm everything because of a cyber weapon. Lost it and gave up. So they asked us to take this opportunity to solve the problem before the cyber weapons flow out.” Angel replied.

"So, where is this auction? How can we catch those hackers?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Auctions are on the Internet, traded in bitcoin," Cobain shrugged. "Americans can't catch them, let alone others. But I've got some insider information, you know the hacker circle. It is said that it is big and small, but it is actually very small, especially in the field of high-end security technology. In fact, it is only a small circle, with only a small group of people. Xia Xia is fortunate to be an elite among this small group of people. So In this circle, I still have some status in the arena, and I also have some friends and relationships."

"Stop showing off there and tell me where these people are." Lin Rui frowned.

"There's some news, but it's not locked down yet," Cobain whispered. "They're currently hiding somewhere in the Netherlands, and they've hired a private security team for a lot of money, and guess who they hired?"

"Private security team? So you are also a mercenary of a private military company. Which company is that?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Our old rival, Morningstar, Joe Claire. And his Lucifer team." Cobain whispered.

"This hacker organization can afford to hire the Lucifer team as a personal escort. This hacker organization is really rich." Jiangishi frowned. "But if that's the case, it's quite tricky. Morningstar is also one of the members of the Mercenary Alliance. We've made a taboo about the missions they're involved in."

"They made the taboo first, because they didn't put this task on the table at all. They did it in private. I guess they are also afraid of Americans, not wanting to offend the nsa, but also want to make a lot of money in silence. We just happened to be Take this opportunity to teach them a lesson." Angel sneered.

"Now that we know that they hired Morningstar, it's easier for us." Lin Rui nodded and said, "If we don't have any clues, it would be too difficult to track down these people. But tracking Morningstar is another matter. We know them well enough. So as long as we can track down the people at Morningstar, we can track down this shadow broker.”

"That's true. But I'm afraid this matter is not easy to handle. They must be extremely secretive for such a task, and even if we want to investigate, it is difficult to find out where they went. We can't find them all over the Netherlands. Right?" Jiangan frowned.

"I have a way." Cobain tapped the computer, "I was already working on this before you guys came back. I've implanted a virus remotely and hacked into Joe's cell phone and private communication devices. As long as He contacts the Lucifer team, and we may be able to trace the location of the Lucifer team."

"So have they contacted?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Not yet. But as long as Joe has any contact with anyone, I will get news here. Whether it's video communication, voice message, or even text communication, I can monitor it in the background." Cobain replied.

"So, you've been monitoring him for a few days, and he hasn't contacted the Lucifer team for a few days?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Indeed." Cobain also said hesitantly, "either he was too careful, or they have other contact methods."

As they spoke, a member of ~www.readwn.com~ Cobain's team waved to them, "We intercepted a message. Considering the delay, this message should have been a minute ago. Received. It's just that the content is somewhat unclear. It is composed of several words that are not related to each other."

"Who gave it to Joe?" Cobain asked immediately.

"Unknown. The other party deliberately concealed the communication address." The technical team member whispered.

"So where did this information come from?" Cobain continued.

"I can't find it yet. The other party used very clever means to cover it up. But it can be determined that it should be somewhere in Europe." The technical team member whispered, "Are we going to continue the reverse investigation?"

"No, this may be a trap. If we investigate in the opposite direction, we may expose ourselves, and then be seen by the other party." Cobain said decisively, "Even if it is a pre-agreed code word, these few words will not have much effect. . This is most likely just a test. If they confirm there is no problem, maybe they will contact again."
