Chapter 18: Cracking the Virus
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Let’s go in!”
The teacher let Ralph in.
Under such circumstances, no one would deliberately pretend to be a master programmer to enter the main computer room. Otherwise, if they did not understand any problems, they would only be laughed at.
Moreover, there were too few students who came to help. If there were more, there would be more hope.
And the big streamer Mary also came in. As a celebrity streamer, her popularity was enough to make the teachers not dare to neglect her.
Therefore, Mary wanted to come in and have a look.
Of course, Mary also live-streamed the process of the elites of Lorraine University cracking the virus.
As for whether it could be cracked, many other viewers and fans did not expect it.
Many countries around the world were invaded by the virus. This was not a simple virus.
They believed that the virus would be cracked, but not so fast.
“Ralph, you’re also proficient in hacking virus programs?”
The teacher in the main computer room looked at Ralph in surprise.
“Kant!”
Ralph walked over.
Kant was Ralph’s computer course teacher, but his major was business administration, while the computer major was just an elective course. Not many people took this course, and Kant always called out names, thus, he recognized Ralph.
“Kant, not only am I proficient, but I’m already confident in cracking ransomware!”
Ralph smiled.
“What?” Kant was shocked.
The other students and teachers also looked at Ralph. Even the live broadcast of the live broadcast was directed at Ralph.
“Ralph, this is not a joke!” Teacher Kant said solemnly.
“Teacher, I’m not joking. Furthermore, I’ve already added a program to crack the ransomware virus into an anti-virus software that I’ve long written overnight. Originally, I was going to apply for a patent, but the school’s system crashed, so I immediately came over.

Lorraine University announced that their student, Ralph, had cracked the ransomware virus and helped Ralph apply for a patent.
The Central anti-virus software was officially launched!
And this anti-virus software was free. Anyone could go to the main website of the Central company and download it.
After a while.
The number of downloads on the main website of the central company increased at an incredible speed —
100,000!
Million!
Ten million!
Not long after that, an advertising company approached the Central company and prepared to spend money to buy advertising spots on the website of the Central company.
Ralph handed over the matters of cooperation and advertising spots to Alice to manage.
The Central company was officially transformed into a software system company.
And the DIFA project was the Central anti-virus software!
Ralph also took the 500,000 USD prize money from the school.
In fact, this time, Lorraine University did not lose anything. They had made a huge profit because the school had earned the attention of the whole world. Their popularity had increased all of a sudden.
Originally, Lorraine University was just an ordinary university. Now, its reputation was even higher than that of a top university. This was an honor that could not be bought with 500,000 USD.
With the Central anti-virus software, extorting viruses were like rootless duckweed. They were completely useless.
Subsequently, other anti-virus software companies also updated their anti-virus software. It was obvious that they had cracked the virus as well. Unfortunately, they were a step too late. Moreover, it wasn’t as useful as the Central anti-virus software. It couldn’t threaten the status of the Central anti-virus software at all.
The extortion of the virus could be considered as a temporary thing. However, Ralph did not intend to end it just like that.
He was very curious. Who was the person that created the virus?
It took him a few days.
Ralph constantly shuttled through the Internet, looking for the origin of the extortion virus. Currently, the mysterious person or organization was still trying to release the virus, so Ralph quickly found it.

Esper: Search for Power
Dan Martin has a good life. He's respected at his job, and enjoys his work. He is close to his family, and they love and support him. With engaging hobbies, relative financial security, and freedom to learn and pursue his interests, Dan is happy. So it's not particularly welcome when he's selected by an inscrutable and seemingly omnipotent System as a test subject. The downsides: All of this is insane and by any rational analysis he's gonna die. The upsides: Super powers, a cure for a physical disability that had limited him, and above all, so very much to learn (for as long as he can avoid dying). I am very much a beginner as an author, and any feedback or suggestions on how to improve would be deeply appreciated. Chapter releases should be daily for the first two weeks and sporadic after that as I use up my buffer. Please consider this work as a rough draft subject to revision and/or retcon. It is not only my first attempt at original story telling, but at world building and RPG style system design. The latter has been very difficult, even drawing on the brilliant work of many RPGs and LitRPGs for inspiration. Thank you to any willing to give a new story and a new writer a try!

The Infinite Labyrinth
(Story complete - Book 1 "Shanghaied", 2 "Shortcuts", 3 "Secrets" and 4 "Sanctions") It is the 19th century, and war smoulders between England and France. Any hope for a quick end to Napoleon's rampage across Europe ended when the Great Gates opened in 1800. For a fortunate few, the strange world of the Infinite Labyrinth offers opportunities, strange descriptors popping in their minds, informing them of growth, and status beyond that of a mere mortal. The materials and power crystal they bring back foster a new age, both military and civilian. Aether-powered Skyships prowl the skies, as all the great nations blessed by the Gates try to turn the blessings of the Labyrinth into immediate advantages. But for Jonas, an apprentice leatherworker, his friend Ira, and so many Londoners, the fabled ones that walk the Labyrinth are distant heroes, seen from afar. They fell short when their Potential was measured, and they fill their mundane lives with distant dreams. One man wants to break the stalemate. The Tyrant of the Dominion of France, Napoleon Bonaparte, has a plan. Eighteen years after the world changed, he will force it to change again. And when civilians are caught in the fallout, the unthinkable happens. Six people, unqualified, forbidden to ever enter the Labyrinth, find themselves stranded in a distant zone, forcefully turned into Professionals. They know little of what that means, but they have to figure out the rules that are now their lot, for they have little hope to escape their predicament otherwise. They need to understand what the descriptors in their minds mean, what each of the strange piece of gear waiting in treasure chests behind terrible guardians can bring them. They have to become Professionals on their own and rejoin the Empire. They will figure out their new lives one way or another. But will there be an Empire waiting for them when the Gates re-open? Caught in a clash of empires and high tiers, they will do what little they can. They will step up and do their best. One way or another. The Infinite Labyrinth is a slice-of-life litRPG adventure set in a real historical setting. It's a hard, crunchy litrpg. Expect blue boxes everywhere, and the system itself is very mathy. It started life as a serial. I prepared some proper worldbuilding, with enough details and background for lots of different potential story arcs, but as I wrote, I realized the main story needs to have a definitive end. So, there are four books in total, for a bit under 1500 pages, plus additional side stories, and even maybe a sequel one day. The Gore tag was added as a precaution because there are a few scenes with some light gore.

Oublivant
Oublivants: a category of dungeons characterised by the antithesis of life, necrosis. "Dungons as a whole tend towards the lethal side when it comes to exploring them; however, an oublivant actively seeks out destruction on a grand scale. No greater example of their deep hatred for life exists than the very first discovery of an oublivant. It was a massive dungeon spanning miles in all directions. It continuously expanded along the surface, so fast you could see it, and left nothing but a scorched, withered wasteland in its wake. Wherever the oublivant resides, nothing but the undead exist, as all living life has been eradicated. Why it is, exactly, the oublivant seem so against life so as to break the passive rule dungeons have is unknown. What is known, however, is that they're a threat that, upon discovery, is to be immediately eliminated." - Archomagus Addiom Onero, Court of VascilNote: This is my first story on royal road. It'd be nice if you were nice... nicely.
