Chapter 3: Robbing the rich
Elsewhere in New York, in a naless Hedge Fund.
John was having a day just as dull as any other, he woke up to his wife nagging him, asking when the next ti they could go on vacation would be.
And when he tried to escape from her by going the office, he was then nagged by his employees talking about how the mundane tasks they'd been working on have been going, and how small changes in the stock market have affected their positions.
'Honestly, I should retire soon or I'll die early from stress. That's sothing that would be very tragic for soone of my position and status.'
John is the CEO of a large hedge fund in his sixties that manages hundreds of billions of dollars of both his own and other magnate's money.
Today felt just like every other day to John, but this all changed very quickly.
"Mr John! Mr John.... SIR YOU NEED TO SEE THIS!"
"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING, WE NEED TO STOP THIS IMDIATELY."
"But how?!?"
John could hear shouting all around him and he could see the shock and speechlessness on his employee's faces.
Wanting to know what all the commotion was about, John asked the person nearest to him, who just stood there motionless and looking as if the world just collapsed on him.
"Mark, tell what's going on quickly before I have a heart attack from stress." John commanded while adding a small joke at the end to ease the tension in the room.
But it did nothing.
Mark just barely snapped out of his daze to point his index finger shakingly at his computer screen, and when John got a good look at it after adjusting his glasses, he couldn't believe his eyes.
[-$5,235,754,222.01]
This shocking number in the transaction logs to an anonymous untraceable account sent a jolt through his body.
As if through fate, or a curse, John had been talking about having a heart attack from stress multiple tis that day.
Unfortunately for him, that ca true that day.
_____________________________________
Completely unbeknownst to Lun, all of this went on as Lun checked its new balance in its completely untraceable and uncrackable bank account that was encrypted so much the Universe would die to heat death before it could be cracked.
[ $5,235,754,222.01]
Seeing the new balance, Lun seed to have felt a trace of joy at seeing the number, which in the past would have been aningless to it.
'As expected, this place couldn't possibly have any digital defences for sothing at my level.'
The next thing Lun had to do was find a location to store all of the dical equipnt that it was planning on buying. This was easy enough, Lun even decided to make sure to choose a secluded location by linking with the satellites in orbit of the Earth and choosing a location it liked.
This location ended up being a recently abandoned military base in Madagascar. This being a secluded island nation and half of the entire country being separated by a huge rainforest, which this military base happened to be located in, made it the perfect starting location for all of Lun's plans.
All Lun had to do was contact the authorities involved to purchase the abandoned base, and they seed very enthusiastic and happy with the fact that soone was willing to procure it so soon after it had been abandoned.
But knowing human nature, they were probably most happy with the price Lun offered, as it offered a 20% premium on its original price to guarantee the base gets sold to it.
In the end, the base cost it a total of $600,000,000, a whole $100,000,000 more than the asking price.
To an ordinary person this amount is unthinkable to add on as a premium just to ensure its sold to them, but to Lun this amount of money is as easy to make as simply having a thought.
Finally Lun got to the last step of the process, the procurent of top of the line advanced dical technology.
Most providers require strict background checks and reasons for purchase so Lun registered a Research Institute to the military base in Madagascar.
What ca after was simple as all it had to do was create a fake persona to be the CEO of said institute, and after a hefty purchase of $1.4 billion in total, it would have all of the needed equipnt all within a week.
Lun even killed two birds with one stone by buying a military base, as it serves for a good cover for its operations, as well as cos ready made with a runway and hangers all alike so any deliveries and back and forth could be dealt with swiftly and without prying eyes.
After all of the equipnt arrived, Lun simply contacted the professional moving company that accompanied a delivery of such huge proportions in terms of money remotely. It simply told them to set the equipnt up in one of the empty labs on site and then proceed to leave when they are finished.
In an upright big, cylindrical in shape, see through glass tube filled with a clear liquid inside, with bubbles floating from the bottom to the top constantly, was the place Lun's body was going to be made.
There were other technologies and devices in the lab like advanced computers with screens all over them, from outside it seed the computers were functioning by themselves however that was just the result of Lun linking up with all of the digital controllers in the lab that connected to each of the equipnt.
Right at that mont, Lun was going through the last check ups of each device in order to ensure a 100% success rate.
'This should be enough, there is nothing more I can do in the short term with such low tech dical equipnt, so this had better work.'
While silently praying to a god it didn't believe in for the body creation process to go smoothly, Lun started tinkering with the sequences of Human DNA that it had also recently procured from so hairs left behind by the deliveryn.
All that it needed was a single human's DNA to start the process, and any imperfections or impurities in the DNA could be genetically engineered by Lun with incomparable accuracy.
This is the power of future technology and knowledge!
While thinking and deciding about the features of it's body different codes were being written in the computer screens, each one responding to any small or seemingly insignificant change that Lun decided to make. Lun wasn't particularly attracted to humans whatsoever, it at least wanted it to look 'perfect' in its image.
In the end what it decided upon was a 190cm tall, dark haired, chiselled and handso man who at that mont was only a 3D model stored on one of the countless computers stored in the room.
However, in about 2 weeks this body would beco a reality for Lun, and it could even feel so anticipation towards the day it assimilates with the body, fully becoming 'Human'.
Of course, it wasn't planning on remaining weak like every other human currently on this planet, as it planned on upgrading itself right off the bat.
