1048 The Apocalyptic Power Flood
Just by being born as a member of the infamous Vetrov family had automatically put countless limitations on her life as Evelina Vetrova no matter how hard she refused to involve herself with the organization. Although she had always dreamed of a better life of freedom pursuing her passions and dreams without any worries, her actual living situation prevented her from believing that she could actually achieve her ideal life. Her environment during that time had instilled the concept of impossibility deep within her.
It was only when Cross Academy recruited her as a student that her mindset drastically changed. She might not have studied in the campus but the remote education she received wasn’t inferior to the other students. She began to finally believe that anything was possible as long as she was creative and determined enough to think of ways to make the impossible possible.
She might not have succeeded in escaping her caged life as Evelina Vetrova until her death, but Cross Academy’s values remained deep in her heart and allowed her to achieve numerous breakthroughs both as a hacker and as a musician. Her life had been extremely short, tragic, and devoid of real happiness, but it was undeniable that her name, Evelina Armanovna Vetrova, and her achievements would remain in the history books of Cross Academy for more generations to come.
Such an impossible theory as the power flood was one of her breakthroughs as a hacker. It wasn’t the best in her repertoire but it was one of the most destructive.
Due to issues in legalities and its questionable application in real life, she had been reluctant to test it on a grand scale, deciding instead to develop the theory in secret even from Cross Academy. After all, its actual application could be categorized as a weapon for warfare.
It wasn’t a weapon in the sense of artillery or combat weapons, but it was still a destructive weapon that had the potential to paralyze or even permanently damage entire nations. Everything would be in chaos. Whole economies would collapse. The list of its destructive effects was long and frightening.
The power flood was designed to target and destroy all telecommunications and computer networks via overloading. It wouldn’t only be the devices that would be fried but the actual software frameworks that were making everything work.
In theory, the power flood was a weapon to forcefully send a target to a situation akin to an era before electricity and advanced technology. It wasn’t foolproof and would not work on less technologically dependent targets, but for the most part, it should be incredibly effective to the majority of the world that was now so reliant on modern technology.
Its reach wasn’t limited within Earth. Based on her theory, it should also be possible to target satellites, and if developed even further, perhaps it could also affect space rovers sent to the moon and other planets, maybe even spaceships in deep space in the future.
At the moment, however, the power flood was still too far in reaching the stage of achieving those kinds of incredible extraterrestrial feats, not to mention that the field wasn’t exactly her specialty.
But if she wanted to develop the power flood in that direction in the future, she would need a partner whose specialty was in that kind of field. Her fellow Cross Academy student, the aerospace engineer Trumann Seekerton, was the best candidate. Amanpio Kileksy was also another possible collaborator since the inventor had patented mechanisms that the best space agencies in the world were currently using. Both were excellent choices but she still felt reluctant sharing such a dangerous weapon of potential mass destruction.
In other words, the theory of power flood had the potential to bring about an apocalypse when used by the wrong hands. She was its creator so she knew all too well the possible extent of the damage it could incur.
Although she trusted the integrity of Cross Academy, she didn’t trust everyone in it. All the students, alumni and instructors were certified geniuses but nobody among them would claim that they were saints. All of them were still humans after all. The heart could change when greed was involved.
In addition, she was 100% certain that Cross Academy would keep a closer eye on her and perhaps even try to permanently tie her to them if she ever revealed the whole theory of power flood and its true potential as a warfare weapon. She couldn’t risk that. It might put various restrictions on her freedom like in her past life as a Vetrov.
Due to all these issues, she had been unable to test the power flood on a large scale. She could only test it on a small scale within a few Vetrov properties in the past to the great ire of her mother, Madam Vetrova. Of course, nobody including her parents or even her big brother knew about the power flood. They only thought that she was just causing trouble, her form of rebellion for refusing to work for the family organization.
In tonight’s battle against a more aggressive and powerful Eagle, she still decided to initiate the power flood despite its lack of successful testing. It was a huge risk, no doubt about it, but she still went ahead with it anyway.
One, there was no time to think of a better strategy when Jin Corporation was in grave danger, not to mention that her husband was in a dangerous situation inside the hotel as well.
Two, her current health condition didn’t allow her to tough it out like usual. Her pregnancy significantly decreased her physical and mental endurance, not to mention that her emotions had become too sensitive.
Three, she wasn’t the exact same person as she was in her past life. Her skills as a hacker had greatly improved and even her style had changed.
Finally and most importantly, she now had her two AI children, Ketchup and Bacon. She didn’t want to refer to them as mere secret weapons because she and her husband had already long grown to love them as their own children, but technically, Ketchup and Bacon were indeed her most powerful secret weapons.
She could say with great confidence that creating the two of them was her highest accomplishments as a hacker so far. However, they were still practically babies so they needed to grow more, learn more, and gain more experience in order to become more powerful in the future. They hadn’t reached their full potential yet. Not even close.
