Level 18 - Magic Number ⏺⏺⏺

Logohttps://ethernaut.openzeppelin.com/level/18

Level Setup

To solve this level, you only need to provide the Ethernaut with a Solver, a contract that responds to whatIsTheMeaningOfLife() with the right number.

Easy right? Well... there's a catch.

The solver's code needs to be really tiny. Really reaaaaaallly tiny. Like freakin' really really itty-bitty tiny: 10 opcodes at most.

Hint: Perhaps its time to leave the comfort of the Solidity compiler momentarily, and build this one by hand O_o. That's right: Raw EVM bytecode.

Good luck!

Congratulations! If you solved this level, consider yourself a Master of the Universe.

Go ahead and pierce a random object in the room with your Magnum look. Now, try to move it from afar; Your telekinesis abilities might have just started working.
