"Code Counterattack" is a long love novel that uses "Honor of Kings" as an emotional carrier and combines elements of hacker attack and defense with urban campus elements. It tells the story of Gu Yanzhi, a rational to indifferent financial security academic, and Su Xiaotang, a genius hacker who pretends to be a newbie, from the deliberate approach of the hunter and the prey to the two-way fall and mutual redemption.
Gu Yan is the top student in the Department of Finance and Economics at Jiangcheng University. His GPA has been ranked first for three years. He has a cold appearance and never socializes. He firmly believes that everything in the world can be quantified. After graduation, he founded Yanxin Technology and devoted himself to the development of core algorithms for financial firewalls. He is the strongest king in the Canyon of Kings with precise operation, calmness and strength. As a freshman in the Department of Computer Science, Su Xiaotang presents herself as a sweet Lolita, deliberately hiding her top hacker skills and pretending to be a bronze player in the game, but she is actually a white hat expert codenamed "Haitang" who is proficient in seven programming languages. Forced by the crisis, she approached Gu Zhi with the secret mission of stealing the algorithm. She used the encounter in the game as the starting point, and the campus relationship as a disguise, and tried every step of the way, carefully laying out the plan.
The two people who were originally opposed to each other became an inseparable double partner in the Canyon of Kings. In reality, they were a senior and a school girl who had an ambiguous relationship. A series of code games and a series of psychological tests allowed Gu Zhi, who believed in data, to calculate the unquantifiable heartbeat for the first time, and made Su Xiaotang, who had a purpose, willing to give up the mission and protect his true heart. When their identities were revealed and crisis struck, they put down their deception and guarding, and changed from attacking and defending each other to fighting side by side, using codes to protect their ideals, and using their sincerity to warm each other.
