Chapter 188 Chaos
Chapter 188 Chaos
There was no lonely figure of a master, nor the profound gaze of a genius.
Contestant number 002 was acting like a shrew who had lost her temper. She was holding a cute beaver plush toy tightly in both hands and was hitting Su Hao's head repeatedly with it!
Number 003 was even more extreme, resembling a gambler pressing for debt, tightly strangling Su Hao's neck from behind with both arms, as if he wanted to die together with him!
"You freak! How the hell did you do that?! Talk to me!"
"Explain yourself to us right now, you bastard! You're not leaving this room until you've given us a clear explanation!"
"Hey, hey, didn't I just tell you guys...?"
Faced with the two men's hysterical attack, Su Hao, whose eyes were rolling back in his head from being strangled, looked aggrieved.
"I just glanced at it and I knew it."
"You're talking nonsense! You big liar who spouts loads of lies! No normal person could tell this thing was real at a glance!"
"Do you think you have X-ray vision?! That you can break through ten firewalls with a single glance?!"
So how exactly did they see it with the naked eye?
God, I should have gone to Duke University to just coast along and live a life of leisure!
"On my first day at MIT, I ran into a monster like you who gives me no way out!"
Contestant number 003 was currently grabbing Su Hao by the collar and shaking him wildly, as if he wanted to shake Su Hao's brains out.
The usually composed Su Hao was completely flustered, his hair disheveled, and he could only raise his hands in the standard French military salute in surrender...
The whole place erupted into chaos.
The three masterminds at the door were dumbfounded.
"Ahem!"
Seeing that the scene was about to escalate into a bloody murder of a genius, Cyber Fox couldn't bear it any longer and coughed heavily twice.
"Alright, alright, you can stop now. If you keep shaking the MIT genius, you'll ruin him."
The three people inside stopped what they were doing and turned their heads in unison.
"Ah! It's the hacker behind it all!"
Numbers 002 and 003 quickly let go, nervously straightening their clothes.
"Um, are you sure it's okay for you to just show up like this so openly? Aren't you afraid of getting arrested?"
"It seems you freshmen didn't do enough research before coming here and are not very familiar with our school's rules."
Looking into the clear eyes of the new students, Cyber Fox smiled knowingly.
"At MIT, hacking is a 'fine tradition' that is tacitly approved and even secretly encouraged by the authorities."
Of course, this is all predicated on adhering to principles.
"Principles?" Su Hao asked, rubbing his neck.
"Yes. First, we must never cause any substantial loss to others;"
Second, after the matter is completed, everything is cleaned up thoroughly without leaving any trace.
Third, and most importantly: you absolutely cannot get caught.
"Wow! That actually sounds kind of cool, like an outlaw."
"Absolutely! He's so effortlessly cool."
"Alright, that's the end of the touching moment!"
Cyber Fox clapped his hands, interrupting the small talk.
"Numbers 002 and 003, take your prizes and go home to sleep peacefully."
You can absolutely hold your heads high and feel proud!
As a freshman, it's already quite remarkable that you managed to fight your way through all sorts of traps to reach the finals.
Root walked forward with a loving expression and handed two extremely strangely shaped cups to Ellie and "Backpack" respectively.
This is an incredibly bizarre coffee cup that was violently and drastically transformed from a real chemical beaker!
The markings printed on the outside of the cup are not normal milliliter scales, but rather "stress index percentages" in a very geeky style.
The two of them took the cups in a daze, their facial expressions almost forming a "囧" (a Chinese character meaning awkward or embarrassed).
"Look at the pressure index soaring wildly on this glass, and then look at that monster next to it that you can beat in an instant. I really need to fill this thing with alcohol and chug it down right now."
The backpack complained, on the verge of tears.
"How were those handles welded on like that? It's so ingenious!"
Ellie's focus was clearly different; she examined the strange beaker from all angles, as if she were appraising some rare treasure, scrutinizing the interface.
"Don't underestimate it, this is an absolute best-selling item in our circle."
This is a limited global edition, handcrafted by a geek team. Remember to use it carefully; it's not covered under warranty if it breaks.
Root coaxed and tricked the two of them out of the classroom.
As the door slammed shut, the classroom fell silent instantly.
"And what about me?"
Su Hao stood there blankly, blinking his eyes like a child waiting for candy, staring longingly at the three hackers in front of him who were smiling like human traffickers.
His eyes were clear and foolish; he had no sense of being a master who could solve an epic problem.
"The first-place prize, besides the graphics card, also includes something specially prepared for you."
Cyber Fox, with a mysterious smile, walked over, carrying the adorable beaver plush toy that had just been used as a weapon to repeatedly hit Su Hao on the head.
"This is no ordinary plush toy. We have completely hollowed out and modified its interior."
It contains various miniature modular devices and can be controlled directly via Bluetooth using a mobile phone.
drop--
As Root pressed a button on the phone screen, the originally dull-looking beaver doll immediately came to life, wagging its tail nimbly.
"You saw its celebratory gesture when it cleared the level and threw flowers, right?"
You can also make it talk using your own program. It also has a miniature gyroscope sensor inside, which allows it to make precise physical responses to various human movements.
Of course, if you don't find it fun enough, you can rewrite the underlying code yourself to change all its functionality.
Cyber Fox handed over the high-tech beaver.
"Wow! This thing is actually quite cute."
Su Hao took the doll with a look of delight and examined it with great curiosity.
His excitement was just like that of a child who had just received a new toy.
Each time the beaver's tail swings, the miniature motor inside the doll emits a soft "buzzing" vibration.
For geeks, that sound has a distinctly industrial aesthetic.
"Besides this doll, there's also the number one graphics card."
Alright, the prizes have all been given out, now it's time to get down to business..."
Cyber Fox suddenly stopped smiling, his expression becoming extremely serious.
"what?"
Su Hao was clearly taken aback.
He was just happily planning how to write a crazy program for this beaver when he got home.
I thought the awards ceremony would be over and everyone would go home, but now I can't help but widen my eyes.
