Max sat cross-legged in his modest house, dimly lit by the glowing interface of his super phone. A soft vibration interrupted his focus as a message notification popped up.
Sender: Charles Wood
Subject: Details
The message contained two crucial pieces of information: the identity and location of the B-rank powerhouse, along with Charles's newly created bank account. Max grinned.
"AI," he said, his tone calm but decisive. "Begin transferring funds to Charles's account. Make sure it's untraceable and gradual. Use everything at your disposal."
The phone hummed to life. Its voice, precise and emotionless, replied:
[Affirmative. Deploying protocol: Shadow Web. Initiating multi-layered fund insertion.]
Max checked how the Ai would do its job, simply out of curiosity.
[- Instead of transferring large sums at once, the phone generated thousands of small transactions disguised as legitimate business payments.
- embedding fake metadata and encrypted signatures into each transaction.
-To avoid raising suspicions, the hacked funds were siphoned from dormant accounts, anonymous donations, and even unclaimed cryptocurrency wallets. The phone ensured every trace was erased before the funds reached Charles's account..... ]
There were more info but Max had read enough to be certain of secrecy and proficiency.
[Process initiated. First deposit complete. Remaining transactions will continue over 48 hours.]
Max smirked. "Efficient as always. Keep it clean."
Max grabbed his black bonsai and stepped outside, after storing all his pets inside his pet space.
"We're moving, for a quick mission. " Max announced to no one in particular.
Moments later, Max launched himself into the air flapping his dark wings, as he soared toward his destination.
.....
After 3 hours of travel, a jagged mountain less than 8,000 kilometers from the B-rank powerhouse came into view. Rugged, isolated, and tall, it was the perfect vantage point.
Max landed and released Lucy.
She emerged, glowing faintly, and hovered silently for a moment before merging with the mountain in a burst of green light.
The entire landscape seemed to hum as the mountain became her domain, now alive with her presence.
Satisfied, Max turned his attention to his next task.
Pulling the massive cannon out of his space ring, Max couldn't help but admire its sheer size and menacing design. The base slammed into the ground, shaking the mountain slightly, while the 6-meter-long barrel pointed toward the horizon.
"I still can't believe this thing has 9000km range."
Max wanted to activate the weapon, preparing to use it against the B-rank. But as he examined it further, a glaring issue became apparent.
"No targeting system?" Max muttered, incredulous. "This thing is completely blind."
The realization hit hard. The cannon was a weapon of immense destruction, but without precise aim, its long-range capabilities were nearly useless.
Even with the cannon set up perfectly, hitting a target from over 7,000 kilometers was impossible without guidance.
Max leaned against the barrel, thinking deeply. He wasn't one to give up easily.
.....
After some thinking Max had an idea.
"AI," Max said after a long pause. "I am going to input the cannon's specifications, and I need you to calculate the trajectory for a shot 7,000 kilometers away. Hack all cameras around the Target and Use real time data."
Max quickly typed the details of the cannon from the simulators screen.
[Scanning. Integrating specifications into targeting matrix.]
The phone's holographic interface expanded, projecting two massive screens in the air.
Screen One: A detailed display of angles, wind speeds, elevation changes, and ballistic calculations. A glowing trajectory arc showed the path the shot would take, adjusting in real-time based on environmental factors.
Screen Two: Live footage from hacked surveillance cameras around the B-rank's location. The AI had infiltrated nearby networks, pulling feeds from street cameras, drones, and even personal devices.
"Perfect," Max said, a grin forming. "Lucy hold the cannon and follow the first screen to aim it, be precise Lu."
'OK'.
Lucy's telekinetic Powers came to life Lifting the cannon, similar to Max she was excited about using it.
.....
The B-rank's location; a skyscraper in the heart of a bustling city, appeared on the second screen. The footage zoomed in on the top floor, revealing the target:
Name: Marcus Greaves
Rank: B
Location: Top floor of the Titanium Spire, a luxury skyscraper housing the headquarters of multiple companies.
Marcus was lounging in a lavish office, surrounded by expensive decor. His arrogance was palpable as he barked orders at his subordinates.
"Marcus Greaves," Max mused.
Max sent a message to Charles informing him that he was about to do it, weather Charles will take the opportunity to strengthening the standing of the company taking full credit for the matter, or deny any involvement with it he had to be prepared.
Max didn't care either way, both options came with advantages and disadvantages and it's up to Charles to pick which to play with, All Max needs is results and of Charles couldn't meet them, then it's better to get ride of him, a'd simply find a replacement.
....
Max adjusted the cannon's position using the AI's trajectory data.
"a little to right Lu."
'ok'.
...
The cannon required 10 minutes of pressure accumulation before firing, and Max activated the charging sequence.
A low hum began to emanate from the cannon, growing louder as the weapon prepared to unleash its destructive power.
The AI's calculations updated continuously, ensuring pinpoint accuracy. On the second screen, Max watched Marcus move about his office, unaware of the impending doom.
As the 10 minute timer neared completion, Max took a deep breath.
"Fire," he commanded.
The cannon roared to life, its shot streaking across the sky like a meteor.
BOOOOOOM!
The sound of the firing was deafening, even for Max, as it shook the entire mountain.
The projectile tore through the atmosphere, leaving a glowing green trail in its wake.
Seconds later, the second screen showed the devastating impact.
BOOM!
The top floor of the Titanium Spire erupted in a blinding explosion, followed by a shockwave that obliterated everything within a 50 meter radius. Radiation seeped into the surrounding area, rendering it uninhabitable.
Marcus Greaves and his opulent office were reduced to ashes.
Max watched the aftermath, satisfied. He deactivated the cannon and stored it back in his space ring.
"AI, ensure no traces lead back to me," Max said.
[Understood. All digital footprints have been erased.]
From the moment of the firing Lucy has being tong tide.
'didni make this?'
"yep all your work Lu."
'cool !'.
"Alright let's get out of here, the nose from the cannon might attract some unnecessary trouble, it's better to leave before it arrives."
