The Queen They Let Go (Alice and Eric) novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204 Serves Them Right.

At last, they could stand tall and defend their home country,

They clapped while tears streamed down their faces.

They were crying from sheer joy!

In contrast, the Molvanians looked completely crushed.

It was like someone had seized them by the throat.

Just then, a sudden twist appeared on the big screen.

The virus had indeed been powerful. The other countries‘ representatives truly had no way of dealing with it.

But the moment it hit a Chanaean computer system, it just…stopped working.

It didn’t even try to keep going.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the hall was stunned.

They had heard of animals gaining intelligence on their own, but a computer virus growing a mind of its own? That was totally unheard of.

What on earth was going on?

Was this some sort of sci–fi movie?

The live stream chat went wild, too.

“This is the power of home turf! Doesn’t matter if you’re human or a virus–once you’re in Chanaea, you better behave!”

“If you’ve got no real skills, then keep a low profile when you’re in Chanaea!”

“Wait, is this virus gaining self–awareness?”

“Yeah, it seems a little too smart. I really want to know what’s going on behind it!”

Alice frowned. The nonstop chatter about the incident was starting to get on her nerves.

She had only come to help, not to cause trouble for herself.

Without her noticing, Byron, the president of Riverview University, had appeared in the crowd.

As the murmurs continued, he slowly stepped onto the stage,

“You all seem to have forgotten that three years ago, there was a major tech revolution in Molvania.

“Back then, a hacker breached their central government system.

“Although the confidential files were untouched, it still sent a wave of panic through their government.

“From that point on, Molvania began training cybersecurity talents. After relentless effort, they finally managed to replicate the virus.

“When the virus was first replicated, they tried to use it to hack into the governments of other countries,

“Fortunately, a hacker stood up and intercepted it.

“The international community was outraged and demanded that Molvania seal the virus away.”

As he spoke, Byron glanced briefly at Alice.

But he quickly looked away.

Alice had always preferred to stay out of the spotlight.

Unless she chose to reveal herself as the hacker in question, he wouldn’t dare expose her.

After a brief pause, he went on.

“While all of you are focused on preserving this virus, Chanaea has already been working on neutralizing

1. it.

“Our researchers have made significant breakthroughs in recent years.

“That’s why your virus has no effect on us whatsoever. In fact …”

He deliberately stretched out the last word and looked toward Alice again.

Alice suddenly felt an overwhelming wave of secondhand embarrassment.

Still, with things having reached this point, she had no choice but to press the Enter key.

The screen burst into motion as countless lines of code began to scroll.

Each line glowed in its own distinct color.

For a moment, the screen turned into a blindingly colorful blur.

Byron immediately threw in a theatrical drumroll.

“From this moment on, all equipment in the venue will be under Ms. Spencer’s command!”

Alice gently raised her hand.

Suddenly, the computers from Malvonia started playing Chanaea’s national anthem..

Everyone in the hall was stunned.

She smiled ever so slightly.

Ruritania’s devices abruptly started blaring “Baby Shark“.

People were already growing accustomed to the chaos–some even clapped along to the beat..

The Ruritanians looked absolutely mortified.

At the same time, the Heswilians‘ systems were taken over too, playing another children’s song.

The crowd burst into laughter.

Alice tapped a key.

Just then, multicolored flower petals rained down from the massive crystal chandelier above the hall.

She stood at the center of the hall, looking like a fairy who had just descended into the mortal realm.

Her smile was subtle, yet breathtaking.

In that instant, everyone in the room felt their hearts skip a beat.

“She’s both gorgeous and badass!”

“One look at Ms. Spencer and I seriously regret defining my sexual orientation too early.”

“She’s just… stunning!”
