At that moment, her private phone suddenly vibrated.
An encrypted message from an unknown number quietly slid in.
"I am Austin, CEO of the Multinational Capital Alliance Group. The Dark Night Consortium attempted a hostile takeover of us last year, and we hold some information they would prefer to keep hidden. Perhaps we can talk?"
Lin Xiaoya looked at the message, her eyes glimmering.
Austin?
The financial tycoon known for his toughness and shrewdness?
The Dark Night Consortium had actually crossed paths with such a figure?
It seemed her enemies were more numerous than she had imagined.
But it also appeared that her allies were beginning to surface.
The situation was becoming increasingly intriguing.
Austin. CEO of the Multinational Capital Alliance Group.
This sudden encrypted message was like a stone thrown into murky waters, creating ripples in Lin Xiaoya's heart.
She was not the only enemy of the Dark Night Consortium.
Moreover, it seemed she was facing a heavyweight opponent.
But at that moment, she had no time to think deeply.
On the screen, the system's red alert flashed like a death knell!
"Warning! AI face-swap attack about to inject into the live stream!"
"Countdown: 3… 2… 1…"
Here it comes!
Lin Xiaoya's pupils constricted sharply, and she could almost hear her heart pounding like a drum.
She stared intently at the live broadcast.
In the next instant, her image on the screen—the Lin Xiaoya who was calmly analyzing the situation and guiding public opinion—had her facial features grotesquely contort for a brief moment!
Like ripples in water, it quickly returned to normal.
But immediately after, the "Lin Xiaoya" on screen wore a smile that was entirely unfamiliar, filled with guilt and regret.
Her voice changed too, adopting a deliberately feigned sobbing tone:
"I'm sorry, sisters, I'm so sorry..."
"What Mr. Zhou Tao said is true... The Starlight Miracle Essence indeed... indeed contains banned substances..."
"I concealed the truth for the sake of sales... I have betrayed everyone's trust..."
The fabricated apology video began to take over the livestream like a virus!
The barrage of comments froze for a fraction of a second before erupting into a torrent of shock and anger!
"?????? Lin Xiaoya?????"
"No way! A twist?!"
"Seriously?! She admitted it?!"
"I knew something was off with her! I knew it!"
"Fraud! Give me my money back!"
The haters were in a frenzy, spamming the chat to stir up chaos.
Meanwhile, the true fans were engulfed in immense confusion and disbelief.
The methods of the Night Corporation were suffocatingly swift and ruthlessly brutal!
If this AI-generated apology was confirmed, combined with the rapidly deleted data on Zhou Tao, she, Lin Xiaoya, would instantly transform from a hero exposing the dark truth into a sinner admitting to fraud!
All her efforts would turn to dust! She would even bear an even heavier stigma!
Lin Xiaoya felt her fingertips grow cold, but her gaze was sharp as a blade.
Now is the moment!
"System! Activate 'AI Face Swap Crack'! Lock onto the 'DeepFake-Plus V3.7' algorithm's 0.3-second delay vulnerability!"
"Consuming personal advance quota! Executing!"
She hesitated not for a moment, her voice as calm as arctic ice.
"Command confirmed! Injecting countermeasure data stream utilizing the vulnerability!"
"Countermeasure data source: User 'Li_Mo_Tech' local cache, attack command source 'LinXY' encrypted communication records (partially decrypted)!"
The system executed with lightning speed.
In the live stream, the figure of "Lin Xiaoya" who was "tearfully" apologizing, suddenly displayed an extremely subtle stutter in her facial expression!
Just 0.3 seconds!
But for the system, that was more than enough!
A massive countermeasure data stream, like a precision-guided missile, forcefully wedged itself into the core of the opponent's algorithm during that fleeting moment of delay!
In the next second, chaos erupted!
On screen, "Lin Xiaoya"’s face, filled with "apology," suddenly began to shake violently and tear apart!
Her features became like a spilled palette of colors, instantly misaligned and blurred!
The originally "sad" gaze briefly flashed with a hint of panic belonging to the programmer, Li Mo.
Immediately, the apologetic voice was cut off, replaced by segments of encrypted communication recordings forcibly intercepted and spliced by the system, accompanied by the crackling sound of electricity that echoed throughout the entire livestream!
"…Immediately generate an AI deepfake video of Lin Xiaoya admitting… and apologizing… push it across the internet… cover trending topics!" (Command from Lin Xiaoyu)
"…Received. 'DeepFake-Plus V3.7' activated… ensuring seamless integration…" (Response from Li Mo)
"…Be sure to erase all traces of Zhou Tao… The CEO is very angry…" (Supplementary instruction from Lin Xiaoyu)
The screen completely collapsed!
The apologetic fake figure vanished, replaced by a chaotic flicker of data blocks, code snippets, and a photo of the programmer, Li Mo, captured forcefully by the system from the side! The background of the photo prominently displayed the logo wall of the Dark Night Consortium headquarters!
Below, a line of bright red text was projected in the center of the screen:
"AI deepfake attack detected! Attack source IP points to: Dark Night Consortium Cybersecurity Department! Perpetrators: LinXY (CEO's secretary), Li_Mo_Tech (contracted programmer)! Evidence has been locked!"
The livestream room fell into a deathly silence.
A prolonged silence lasting several seconds.
Then came an eruption of fury like a volcano!
