Chapter 4 The Hacker

It took Ethan two days to track down Aiden Kane.

Unlike Felix or Vanessa, Aiden didn’t have a student record, business page, or even social media. His online presence was scrubbed so clean it was suspicious in itself. But the Trillionaire System was anything but ordinary.

Locating individual…

Cross-referencing facial scans from campus CCTV, public records, and police databases…

Match Found: Aiden Kane

Current Occupation: Freelance penetration tester (illegal contracts)

Last seen: Unit #17, 4th Floor, Coral Industrial Building, Geylang

Risk Level: Moderate

Threat Level: High (if provoked)

Ethan looked at the location. A run-down tech repair building in one of the city’s grimiest corners.

Perfect place for someone who didn’t want to be found.

He grabbed his new jacket, tucked his phone into his inner pocket, and headed out.

Coral Industrial Building – 10:43 p.m.

The place looked like it hadn’t seen a proper renovation in 30 years. Flickering hallway lights. Peeling walls. Damp air filled with a faint buzz of soldering irons and old fan motors.

Ethan climbed the stairs instead of using the rickety lift.

Unit #17’s door was slightly ajar. Inside, loud techno music blared behind stacked monitors and LED-lit rigs. The room smelled like instant noodles, sweat, and heat from overworked CPUs.

A shirtless guy with sharp cheekbones, wild black hair, and cyberpunk tattoos sat at the center of it all—surrounded by five screens showing what looked like live security feeds of a nearby casino.

Ethan knocked once on the metal door.

The music stopped instantly.

Aiden turned around, his eyes scanning Ethan with cold calculation.

“You lost, rich boy?” he said flatly. “This isn’t where you buy NFTs.”

Ethan stepped in calmly.

“I’m not here to buy anything. I’m here to offer you a job.”

Aiden raised an eyebrow.

“Do I look like someone who fills out HR forms?”

“No forms,” Ethan replied. “Just a system you’d never dream of cracking—and a mission that’ll put every tech CEO in the country on their knees.”

Aiden leaned back, curious but not convinced.

“Go on.”

“I’m building an A.I. automation firm—VIREX Technologies. Fully funded. Cutting-edge. We’re going to disrupt everything from logistics to law enforcement systems.”

“And?”

“I need someone who can break firewalls, fight corporate espionage, and secure an infrastructure no one even knows exists yet. In return—$20,000 a month. Plus profit share. And your own red-room lab.”

Aiden didn’t blink.

“You tracked me here. So either you’re bluffing… or you’re connected.”

He turned back to his monitors, tapped a few keys, and smirked.

“You’re not bluffing. I just ran your bank statement. Ten million in clean liquidity. Damn.”

Ethan smirked. “Illegal.”

“So is 90% of what I do. I’m still breathing.”

Aiden stood, cracked his knuckles, and faced him.

“I’ll join. But one condition.”

“Name it.”

“I work alone. No team lectures. No company retreats. No mandatory fun.”

Ethan extended a hand.

“Agreed. But when I call, you pick up.”

Aiden shook it.

“Fine. Let’s break the world, Reyes.”

✅ Mission Complete: Build a Team

Reward Unlocked: Personal Asset Upgrade + Advanced Tech License

Asset Upgrade: Dorm room converted to private luxury condo (fully furnished)

License: Access granted to exclusive R&D tools and predictive market algorithm

🔓 New Mission: Begin Phase One

Objective: Launch VIREX publicly within 10 days

Reward: National Visibility Boost + System Evolution Unlock

Ethan received a new notification from his bank.

Another $5 million released from the system’s internal reserve. This one marked:

Business Operations Fund – Phase One

He couldn’t help but laugh.

Ten days to go from secret company to public launch.

Most startups took years.

He had the Trillionaire System—and a team of elite misfits with everything to prove.

The world wouldn’t know what hit it.

  • The Trillionaire System   Chapter 95 The Silence Above and Below

    When the blast rolled through the tunnels, it didn’t sound like thunder—it sounded like breath being stolen from the earth itself. The explosion didn’t echo; it rolled, rippling through the buried veins of Garden City, shaking dust from old steel and history alike.Ethan hit the floor hard, the force driving the air out of his lungs. Heat licked across his back, chased by the sting of metal shards. Somewhere behind him, Alexander was shouting something, voice warped by ringing ears and concussion shock.“Get up!” Mira’s voice cut through the haze, raw but alive. “Move! The ceiling’s unstable!”Chunks of concrete crashed into the flooded chamber, sending plumes of water into the air. Jun grabbed Lorren by the collar and dragged him upright as the man coughed and choked, blinking through soot.“The blast took out the supports,” Alexander yelled, clutching a half-fried data core. “We have about thirty seconds before this whole section collapses!”“Everyone out!” Ethan barked, forcing his

    The hum grew louder. It wasn’t the clatter of human footsteps or the thrum of electricity — it was rhythm. A mechanical heartbeat, measured and patient, resonating through the old iron veins of the tunnel. The sound crawled along the walls, pulsing in time with the trembling lights of Alexander’s lamp.“Hold position,” Ethan whispered. His voice was steady, but everyone could feel the air tighten around the words.They crouched near the turbine pit, the smell of oil thick enough to taste. Somewhere beyond the water’s reflection, something moved — a shape half-metal, half-shadow, gliding without sound.Jun lifted his rifle, eyes tracking the dark. “Movement at ten o’clock. Slow. Low to the ground.”Mira adjusted her grip on the lamp and shifted her stance. “How many?”“Too quiet to tell,” Jun murmured. “One. Maybe two.”Then the hum fractured — a sharp electronic screech, followed by the unmistakable click of mechanical limbs against concrete.Three shapes stepped out of the dark.They

  • The Trillionaire System   Chapter 93 The Network Beneath the Silence

    The lamps in the lower tower burned low, throwing long shadows across maps pinned to the stone walls. The city above hummed with quiet energy — carts rattling home, children laughing near the mills, benches still open under soft lanterns. But beneath Garden City, truth had begun to move again — restless, electric, whispering through old wires that hadn’t carried power in years.Lorren Vale had been awake for thirty hours. His fingers shook as he traced circles on a crumbling blueprint spread across the table. It showed the tunnels — long-forgotten maintenance shafts running under the ridge, connecting the city’s old power grid to its river turbines. They’d been sealed after the siege, when the lower sectors collapsed and Kane’s men filled them with rubble and traps.Now, apparently, Dominion had brought them back to life.“You won’t find soldiers down there,” Lorren said, his voice hoarse. “You’ll find operators. The kind who fight with cables and frequency bands. They don’t shoot; th

  • The Trillionaire System   Chapter 92 The Ledger Opens

    The tower’s lowest level was never meant for truth. It had been a bunker, then a storeroom, then a place to hide people who didn’t fit neatly into anyone’s plans. Now it was a chamber of paper. A thousand pages stacked like bricks, ink drying under lamps that flickered with exhaustion.Lorren Vale sat at the center of it all, hunched over a scarred table, wrists bound loosely but deliberately—enough to remind him that freedom had become a conditional thing. His hair was grayer now, or maybe the lamplight made it so. Before him lay the same tools that had built and ruined him: pen, ink, and memory.Mira stood across from him, silent but watchful, her ledger open, its pages neat where his were chaotic. She didn’t threaten, didn’t curse. Her questions came like chisels, small, precise, steady:“Who authorized this transfer?” “Where did this shipment end up?” “Which name reappears on the margin?”Each question left a mark deeper than any blade could.He answered at first with irritation

    They dragged him into the light like a confession. Lorren Vale’s hands were bound with rope that looked too soft for the job; someone had used a tow line that had once held a barge. He walked as if he owned the rope—like he expected it to bow. Derrick walked behind him, shoulders drawn in a way that made him seem younger than his years, and kept his eyes on the ground. He did not look at his brother.The plaza smelled of wet wood and tea and the long-simmered stew people made when there was nothing else to do but feed their fear into something edible. Word ran ahead of them—bench witnesses, militia escorts, the tram-clinic standing open like a promise. People gathered with the slow certainty of an audience that had learned to watch rituals instead of riots.They sat Lorren on the bench that had been carved out of a scaffold plank. Cira set her ledger between them and lit a lamp that tried to make ink honest in the night. Leah moved through the crowd with a med kit and a look that said

  • The Trillionaire System   Chapter 90 The Lantern at the Ridge

    The light blinked again the following night. Once, twice, then gone. A polite knock on the edge of the dark. Not a flare, not a trap you could call a trap out loud. Just a lantern doing something too deliberate to be an accident.Jun reached the ridge before the rest. The ground there was damp, as if the river had crawled up in the night to listen. He crouched near the rocks, pulled his hood lower, and let his eyes adjust until the stars were just noise. There—a faint ember glow behind a crooked post. Someone was out there. Watching. Waiting.Mira arrived next, moving silently. She had brought only one rifle and no theatrics. “Not military,” she whispered. “If it were Dominion, they’d bring noise and paperwork.”Jun nodded. “One lantern. One heartbeat.”Behind them, Ethan and Leah approached with two watch volunteers. No crowd, no alarm. Just quiet steps on damp stone. They had learned that some dangers roared, and others asked politely to be invited in.The lantern flickered. A shado
