Where Legal Eagles Dare: An Opco Boone Adventure: Difference between revisions

Algy shinned down the access ladder from the trailer roof. To his surprise, the trailer’s main back doors were unsecured. He popped the latch and swung them open. Algy dropped in and onto the deck.

“Holy hell,” he said, and whistled. The trailer’s entire forty foot length was packed with server farms of [[key performance indicator]]s arrays, RAG indicator clusters, target operating model monitors and other banks of miscellaneous dials, meters, [[waiver]] needles, winking LEDs, CRT displays that Algy couldn’t begin to comprehend.  

Algy inspected one of the KPI arrays. It was fitted with a crypto-locked switch marked “ARM”. He looked down the row. Every bank was crypto-locked. ''Every single switch was armed''. Over the transom, a digital display carried the detonator count-down.

Algy clicked into his wrist-com, “Georgie, this is bad. There must be 40,000 [[KPI]]s here. More, probably. They’re all armed. We’ve got three minutes. I couldn’t switch that many off in that time even if they weren’t encrypted. But they are blockchain hashed.”

Georgie said, “Copy that, Algy. We have to turn this truck around. It is the only way. And it’s what Boone would have wanted. Remember, you have the element of surprise. There’s no time. You can do this, Algy. Oh! ''LOOK OUT!''”
