Awakening the Daily Intelligence System

Even if they truly didn’t understand, they could still roughly give out an estimated market price.

But now the situation was completely different,

Lin Mo had no idea who to ask for a while and worried that if he acted rashly, he might attract Chen Shanhe’s attention.

After he sold those swords to Wu Jingguo last time, didn’t Chen Shanhe go visit him?

Although being forced to flee to Northern Sea City didn’t relate to Wu Jingguo, Lin Mo had also noticed that there were connections between those big shots.

If so many good goods suddenly appeared on the market, it would inevitably draw attention.

“I’m still thinking, it’s definitely not safe to handle this domestically, let’s wait a few days more, there’s no rush anyway.”

This was Lin Mo’s excuse to his family; in fact, he was quite short of cash, considering the hacker Dark had said he would give him an answer in three days, and today was that promised third day.

Speaking of which, it was already late at night, why hadn’t the hacker Dark come looking for him yet?

However, just at that moment.

Buzz… Buzz-buzz…

It really was true what the old saying goes, don’t speak of people during the day, nor of ghosts at night.

The moment Lin Mo thought of Dark, his phone started vibrating in a unique pattern, indicating that he had received a new message from deep within the network.

Who else could it be sending messages through the deep web at this time?

Since his exposure, Chen Shanhe had not contacted him for a long time, nor had he contacted Chen Shanhe; it was like they were in a cold war. And as for the other hackers he had previously been in touch with, they wouldn’t contact him out of the blue, so most likely, the one contacting him now was none other than the world’s number one hacker—Dark.

Lin Mo couldn’t help but take a deep breath quietly.

His heartbeat started to speed up a little.

“Whether I can strike back at that old man Chen Shanhe through live internet broadcasting depends on Dark’s response.”

Lin Mo stood up, spoke to the three people beside him, “I’m going to make a call. You guys think about it and see if there’s any suitable and reasonable channel to sell off all these items for cash.”

There was no need to tell his family about the dealings with the deep web hackers for now; they wouldn’t understand and wouldn’t be able to help much. Knowing these things would only cause them unnecessary worry.

Lin Mo got into the SUV, then unlocked his phone with a different set of gestures and logged into the deep web.

Just as he had guessed, at this very moment, it was the hacker Dark who had sent him a video call invitation over the deep web.

Lin Mo glanced at the three people in the distance, then, just like the last time, covered up his phone camera before he answered the video call. Immediately after, the familiar ghost mask appeared on the screen.

[Abyss, my apologies for disturbing you so late.]

[It’s okay, I’m glad to be disturbed by you. Tell me, how is your plan progressing?]

Dark went straight to the point: [It’s going very smoothly, many top hackers have expressed great interest in this project, and a part of them has already explicitly mentioned they are willing to join the team. But now, we need some start-up capital.]

Lin Mo was not at all surprised that many hackers were interested in the live streaming software he had requested to create.

The hackers in the deep web were not ordinary; most of them also enjoyed seeking thrills.

When he had previously gathered intelligence on the deep web, many hackers had already expressed their willingness to join.

[That’s good news.] Lin Mo asked directly about his most concerning issue: [So, please tell me straight, how much money do you need?]

[Conservatively estimated, 200 million dollars, which equates to roughly 1.4 billion in your country’s currency,] Dark answered, then clearly added, [It’s not a small sum, and before you decide whether you’re willing to spend this money, there are a few things I must remind you of.]

[First, the live streaming software you want to create is very difficult to develop. Grand Xia Country has many excellent red hackers. In fact, it’s not just technically challenging but also difficult in practical terms, as Grand Xia isn’t as free as the USA. Furthermore, the needed preparation period will be lengthy; it’s not something that can be achieved overnight. In short, based on our preliminary research over these past few days, I can only give you a success rate of around 9%.]

[You need to think carefully whether you want to pay this fee; it might all be for nothing in the end.]

Lin Mo listened attentively to Dark’s words.

There was no change in his expression.

Money was not such an important resource for Lin Mo.

Nor was it a non-renewable resource.

The decision to go ahead was definite; although a 9% success rate wasn’t high, who said he could only try once?

If this attempt failed, then he would just save up more money and try again next time.

Although it was hard, what if he succeeded one of those times? Then he could deliver a heavy blow to Chen Shanhe!

He might even crush Chen Shanhe outright!

For that alone, Lin Mo had to try!

He was in a tough spot, did Chen Shanhe really think he could have it easy?

If you’re willing to endure scars,

You can bring down even the emperor from his horse!

However, before agreeing to pay, Lin Mo asked a question of great concern to him: [Dark, forgive my impertinence, but is your health condition able to withstand the completion of this live streaming software development?]

Since Lin Mo had already disclosed his real name previously, Dark didn’t seem too surprised when Lin Mo showed awareness of his illness.

He paused for a few seconds, then seriously replied, [I’m sorry, but I can’t guarantee that.]

[Only God knows how long I have left.]
