Super Invincible Battleship-Chapter 211 - 124 Rise of the Destroyer

Chapter 211: Chapter 124 Rise of the Destroyer

The Auxiliary Brain had just established a bounty task worth two hundred million US dollars when the Dark Web admin sent a text message asking if the bounty task posted by Yan Fei and the reward amount were correct. Yan Fei, with the help of the Auxiliary Brain, immediately responded, confirming the authenticity of the task content and the bounty amount. Subsequently, the Dark Web administration requested that Yan Fei deposit the two hundred million dollar bounty into a specified Dark Web margin account. As soon as the margin account received the funds, Yan Fei’s bounty task would be visible to all registered users on the Dark Web.

Moreover, because the reward amount was as high as two hundred million dollars, qualifying as a heavyweight task, the Dark Web would also display this task as a red banner in a prominent location. Any user logging into the Dark Web would immediately notice this bounty task.

Yan Fei knew that the Dark Web operators were concerned about people making a joke in the bounty tasks, offering high rewards without the ability to provide them upon completion, thereby undermining the enthusiasm of those undertaking the tasks. That’s why they collected the task bounty in advance. As long as the bounty was in the margin account, those who accepted the task could devote themselves fully to its completion. And upon completion, they would be able to receive their reward, which was the best way for the Dark Web to ensure the authoritative nature of its tasks.

Yan Fei hesitated momentarily, then, using the Auxiliary Brain, transferred the two hundred million in already converted cash from Dream Technology Company’s account and deposited the two hundred million US dollars in cash into the specified Dark Web margin account.

Once the two hundred million dollars in cash arrived in the account, the Dark Web backend displayed that the bounty had been received. Then, every account registered on the Dark Web received a notification about the bounty task to rescue Lu Pingping. A two hundred million dollar bounty was considered a jaw-droppingly huge task, and everyone who received the message was so eager to undertake it that they swore to complete the task. As a result, a flurry of intelligence gathering began in the Dark Web, as everyone sought to understand the specifics of Lu Pingping’s abduction case.

Yan Fei did not pay attention to the reactions of others who discovered the bounty task. Instead, he disconnected the Auxiliary Brain from the current WIFI. He then selected a free WIFI on Okinawa Island, logged into the Network World, and registered a brand-new account on the Dark Web. This account was named “Destroyer,” implying the obliteration of everything. Yan Fei, then using this “Destroyer” account, took on the task published by “Fei Ping” to rescue Lu Pingping.

...

The reason Yan Fei manipulated accounts on the Dark Web in such a way was not because he had so much money he didn’t know where to spend it, but because it related to the deterrent strength plan he had just conceived. Lu Pingping had already been successfully rescued, and as soon as she returned to the Company, she would inevitably face questions from others, for example, from the China Special Duties Unit, who would certainly be concerned with how Lu Pingping came back.

To mask his own identity and that of the Drone Avatar in resolving the abduction case involving Lu Pingping, while also manifesting a powerful presence, Yan Fei knew he had to begin laying the groundwork now. He had to conjure up the illusion of a peerless expert rescuing Lu Pingping. This way, her rescue wouldn’t appear too abrupt and it would also establish that this peerless expert had a certain degree of closeness to him, making it known that Yan Fei was not without powerful backing. People would have to think thrice before moving against Yan Fei.

The reason Yan Fei created the non-existent persona “Destroyer” was not only to hide the fact Lu Pingping had safely returned but also to craft an identity for his Drone Avatar and build up the “Destroyer” as a force standing behind him. Yan Fei had long realized that due to the Drone Avatar’s mysterious appearances and lack of a declared allegiance, nobody knew which power it belonged to or whether it was friend or foe, causing other forces in the world to be suspicious and even unite against it. So even if the Drone Avatar was formidable, it could not exert the intended powerful deterrent effect.

Therefore, Yan Fei formally crowned the Drone Avatar with the name “Destroyer,” creating a formidable and terrifying enemy while making it appear as a Mysterious Power that stood behind him. This would not only serve to intimidate enemies but also facilitate the Drone’s future strikes. And since this power would be perceived as standing behind Yan Fei without a direct association, Yan Fei could simply deny any links when questioned, preventing others from transferring their anger onto him. If anyone dared to act against Yan Fei, “Destroyer” would teach them the meaning of a deterrent force.

After Yan Fei’s “Fei Ping” account posted the bounty task on the Dark Web, he waited half an hour and then, with the newly created “Destroyer” account, took on the task. Other users were tempted by the high reward but were still at the stage of gathering intelligence and had not rashly accepted the bounty task. A task on the Dark Web doesn’t disappear after being accepted; as long as the task isn’t concluded, anyone can take it on.

Once Yan Fei completed all these arrangements, he did not engage in further Dark Web activities but instead continued to fly the Drone westward. Twenty minutes later, the Drone Avatar quietly broke through the radar surveillance of the Japan and US military forces and returned to the waters near Shanghai. It was now past ten at night, pitch black outside, but Yan Fei chose not to go ashore immediately. Instead, he stayed in the Drone Cockpit, lurking beneath the sea surface and waiting.

During the wait, Lu Pingping did not wake up. Now that he had rescued Lu Pingping and finally relaxed after several tense days, Yan Fei actually fell asleep in the cockpit for the whole night. Although he slept sitting up with Lu Pingping in his arms, he felt the sleep was especially sweet. What made him happier was that since returning to Shanghai from Banna City in Yunnan, Yan Fei had stopped having the recurring strange dream that caused him to forget. Now, when he slept, he rarely dreamed and could sleep until daylight. Without the torment of strange dreams, Yan Fei naturally felt refreshed and invigorated.

At six o’clock in the morning the next day, the eastern sky of Shanghai began to show signs of dawn, signaling the start of a new day.

Yan Fei calculated the time, used the Auxiliary Brain to take a photo of the sleeping Lu Pingping, logged into the Dark Web with the “Destroyer” account, and uploaded the photo of Lu Pingping sleeping under the bounty task posted by “Fei Ping.” He then wrote, “Last night in the North Pacific Ocean, killed 10 assassins from the Assassin Sect, sunk one of their submarines, safely rescued Lu Pingping, and handed her over to the client!” Finally, he applied for mission completion.

Having finished all this, Yan Fei switched accounts using the Auxiliary Brain, logged onto “Fei Ping’s” account, located his own bounty task, clicked on the “Destroyer’s” completion application, and commented: Lu Pingping has been rescued, thanks to the “Destroyer”!

After receiving confirmation from “Fei Ping’s” account, the Dark Web immediately processed the transfer. Not long after, the bounty of 190 million US dollars was deposited into the bank account provided by the “Destroyer.” To ensure the normal operation of the Dark Web, the operators took a 5% fee from each bounty payment. After deducting the 5% fee from the two hundred million dollars in cash, the amount left was one hundred ninety million dollars.

No one objected to the Dark Web taking a 5% fee from the bounty amount because the Dark Web was powerful and trustworthy. As long as the task was completed, one could receive the bounty, hence everyone chose to work on the Dark Web, treating the 5% fee as a kind of tax.

The bank account used by the “Destroyer” to collect the bounty was one that Yan Fei had previously registered with a high degree of secrecy at a Swiss Bank, intended as a precaution. However, it came in handy for Lu Pingping’s kidnapping incident and was used as the “Destroyer’s” dedicated receiving account, fulfilling its intended purpose.

After all was done, Yan Fei finally brought the unconscious Lu Pingping ashore on a secluded coastline in Shanghai. As soon as Yan Fei reached land, the Drone Avatar continued to sink, hiding motionless in the offshore waters of Shanghai, awaiting Yan Fei’s next summoning.

Unknown to Yan Fei, the bounty task he posted on the Dark Web using the “Fei Ping” account had already caused a huge stir. It wasn’t just because the bounty reached a staggering two hundred million dollars, but also because some well-informed individuals deduced the task’s issuer to be Yan Fei of Dream Technology after analyzing the information.

The task issuer’s account name was “Fei Ping,” and the person to be rescued was named Lu Pingping. Some analytical minds quickly guessed that this account was a combination of Yan Fei and Lu Pingping’s names. Since the person needing rescue was Lu Pingping, it suggested that the task had been issued by Yan Fei. These individuals immediately purchased detailed intelligence on Lu Pingping’s kidnapping from well-connected sources, learning that the case involved the elusive Assassin Sect. Even when they knew about the task, after assessing the situation, no one dared to accept it, as they were facing the Assassin Sect and no one was confident they could safely rescue a hostage from them. Offending the Assassin Sect by failing would only bring greater trouble.

Thus, to these people, the bounty task seemed impossible to complete. But to everyone’s surprise, within just half an hour, the task was accepted by a newcomer account named “Destroyer.” Some even mocked the “Destroyer,” believing he had taken on the task without knowing the full story, as though it were as simple as finding a lost cat or dog. They were certain the “Destroyer” would suffer a substantial loss.

However, what they did not expect was that, just over six hours later, the “Destroyer” uploaded a photo of Lu Pingping and detailed the number and location of the assassins killed, proving the completion of the bounty task. Furthermore, the issuer confirmed that Lu Pingping had been rescued and thanked the “Destroyer.” After the task was verified as completed, the Dark Web operators transferred the hefty sum of one hundred ninety million dollars to the “Destroyer’s” bank account.

As a result, the newcomer “Destroyer” quickly became well-known in the Dark Web’s underworld. His rise to fame was not only due to his rapid completion of a seemingly impossible task but also for daring to challenge the powerful Assassin Sect, actually killing their assassins and taking their prey from their clutches.

Soon enough, “Destroyer” made a name for himself in the Dark Web’s underworld and suddenly rose to prominence. But when everyone began searching for information on the “Destroyer,” they could find nothing useful. Even the hackers with significant strength couldn’t trace the “Destroyer” using their hacking techniques; it was as if the “Destroyer” was a ghost of the internet, palpable yet untraceable.
