Three days after the incident at HelixCore, Jason sat in the dim light of the Genesis Chamber—an underground lab he had secretly constructed using the System's knowledge. Beneath neon-coded walls pulsed the heartbeat of his next move: the Genesis Algorithm.
It was more than code. It was prophecy.
"Status report," Jason said aloud.
The System responded in an elegant voice only he could hear.
[System Alert] Genesis Algorithm v0.8 – 91% Simulation Efficiency. Quantum compression successful. Predictive model syncing with Host's foresight index.
Jason stared at the holographic interface: lines of glowing, living code dancing across layers of deep learning matrices. With this algorithm, he would predict market crashes before they happened, detect insider trades, and even manipulate cryptocurrency trends before headlines ever caught wind.
Vivian, now officially his head of operations, entered holding a datapad. "The beta tests on microtrades netted us $2.1 million in 90 minutes."
Jason gave a small nod. "Push the ceiling."
Vivian blinked. "You sure?"
"We have to burn bright before they notice the fire."
Back at HelixCore, Callahan slammed his fist on the table. "Who is Jason Axton?!"
His analysts scrambled. "He's… an orphan. No significant background. But in the last month, he's acquired ten shell companies, manipulated three indices, and outbid us on the Vindex biotech deal."
Callahan growled. "Find his weakness. Everyone has one."
But Jason's System was already twelve moves ahead.
