I am the God of Technology



He saw the bodies of Killian's team members that he left here and then took them over to the helicopter. Dante then flew back to his room in the Royal Oasis hotel and used his AI chip to search for the tech specialist and the demolitions agent, finding that the two had crazily evacuated to their safe house in the city. 

Amused, he traveled to their safehouse which was heavily guarded but almost inconspicuous. It was a small manor in the rich residential area of the city. Dante easily disarmed all the defenses with his AI chip and walked in as if he were the owner of the place. 

When he entered the basement where the tech specialist and demolitions were seated while trying to contact headquarters for more information, they raised their heads to see Dante enter. Immediately their faces changed as they recognized their target, but they were unable to even make a sound as Dante knocked them out faster than their brains could respond. 

He then threw their bodies to the side and sat down in the tech specialist's chair. His AI chip connected to his setup and directly made a video call to the headquarters of The Pantheon, which was picked up immediately by their CO. 

"Hake, if you don't have good news for me, you'd better… who is this?" The Commanding Officer began to berate but paused when he saw Dante on the screen. 

Well, he didn't see Dante. What he saw was first Humphrey, then Slessor, then all other random faces, even some aliens from the Eternal Universe. Even as Dante replied to the Commanding Officer, his voice was fundamentally changed to something that could not be decoded. 

"Me? I am the target of this operation. You must be the 4th Seat of the Pantheon, Codename Ulysses. The planner of all their operations and movements. Nice to meet you." Dante responded with amusement in his voice. 

Ulysses was silent before his expression became arrogant. "Where are my operatives? If you tell me now, your fate can be mitigated from torture and death to just mild torture." 

Dante was speechless. "Brother, they put you in charge of their intelligence operations? Didn't they at least check if you had any intelligence in the first place?" 

"You! How dare you speak to me this way, you cretin! And answer my questions, before I send an even better team to deal with you!" Ulysses threatened with a dark face. 

Dante rubbed his brows. "Right, okay. I'll say this slowly, and I can even repeat it for you if you're too slow. My name is Ao Longtian and I am the Son of the Heavens! With my system, the God of Technology System, I will take over this world and become its ruler!" 

"You and yours only have 1 month to surrender to me or I will begin taking action against you!" Dante declared as he folded his arms arrogantly and then cut the connection. 

Ulysses slammed the control panel before him with a cold expression and then flung his hand, flourishing his military cape as he left the room with a dark face. 

The moment he exited the room and none of the cameras were around, his expression changed to a solemn one. He quickly entered a secure room and then sat down, taking off his cap and wiping his forehead. 

"What a terrifying person. He was able to take down an S-class team with ease, track them to their safe house, and even call us to posture. This is power beyond what we can easily deal with right now." Ulysses muttered thoughtfully. 

"I do not believe he is that stupid, though he must be young. He also revealed a lot of information despite thinking that he hadn't. He is definitely a youth below the age of 30 and must have been born and raised in the West." 

"After all, the images he chose to hide his true face are that of fantasy and alien characters, and it is unlikely a mature person would use such a thing. Not to mention that even if he changed his voice and made it impossible for us to decode, his words and tone carried over." 

"As for the Chinese name he gave, it's obviously a redirection. This makes him an American most likely, because if he was going to choose a name to redirect to, it would definitely belong to the state that he hates the most, and as of 2030, China is America's biggest enemy." 

"System? I have not heard of such a thing but I will research it and find out what this terminology means. It might also yield clues to his true identity." 

"He mentioned the God of Technology. That means his superpower must be technology related and gives him control over digital networks, which was why he could easily contact us as well as protect his details." 

"This makes him a huge enemy in today's world since the entire world is now a global village thanks to digitalization. For all we know, he could have hacked into our database and our communications despite them being state of the art. After all, superpowers do not follow conventional rules from what we've discovered." 

Ulysses frowned and glanced around. "It's a good thing I waited until I was out of sight before showing my true thoughts. Hm, now how to detect him…" 

Ulysses leaned back in his seat and smiled. "He is suspected to be a young man, American, and has the power of technology." 

"The team detected him in South Africa, so we only need to check the flight details of the past week for any young American who traveled there but has yet to travel back." 

"As a young man, when you gain superpowers as awesome as his, what do you do? The first thing is normally to show off, but if you're smart, you will try to increase your financial capability and live the dream of a billionaire!" 

Ulysses' eyes narrowed. "So we must also investigate all young Americans who have recently had a surge in wealth. Especially through stocks, gambling, or other such areas where technology can grant easy benefits and are quite obvious!" 

Sighing, Ulysses leaned back in his seat and he seemed to have aged backwards, becoming younger again. "Hah, at the end of the day, he's just a young upstart. He thought he was careful, but careful is relative. He is intelligent, but no amount of intelligence can surpass a modicum of wisdom." 

"Wisdom is not something that you can be born with like intelligence, it is acquired through experience. This is another reason I'm confident he is a young man, especially one who just awakened." 

"Even someone who spent 20 years carefully managing their superpower would make mistakes and still lack experience, much less someone who awakened it shortly. Before he awakened his superpower, his thoughts were largely civilian and normal so the actions he would have taken in his life before becoming powered are not 'protected'." 

Ulysses sighed. "Whatever the case, this problem has a direction now. We only have to be careful of our electronics going forward and establish safeties around them in case someone else awakenes such a power in the future." 

With a plan in mind, Ulysses felt confident and stood up, planning to get everything done. 

Meanwhile, Dante ended the video call and then dragged the bodies of the demolitions guy as well as the tech specialist then flew towards the helicopter. He then dumped them in the back of it and tied them up using the same rope he used to take down the superhuman team. 

He then tossed the helicopter driver who was out cold to the passenger's side and had his AI chip take over the helicopter and consequently fly it to McDonald's Island. On the way, he received a ping from his AI that he was being investigated, but Dante sneered. 

He may not have the wisdom of Ulysses, but he had greater technology and information. He had hacked into the entire database of The Pantheon, how could he not have read the profiles of all their members? Ulysses was known for his out-of-the-box thinking and his cunning, so Dante decided to stifle him from the beginning. 

All details, records, and videos taken by cameras about him entering the casino, buying the cars, or taking the plane were obscured. They existed, but when Ulysses or anyone affiliated with him tried to access it, they would not be able to even detect it, much less realize they were blocked. 

Dante was speechless. Seriously, you know I have technological powers and you are using technology to investigate me? Are you underestimating the scope of my ability or is it a habit of reliance? 

Probably both. 

After all, Dante told him to the face that he was the God of Technology and with the AI chip as well as access to the Eternal universe, Dante might as well be the literal God of Technology for planet earth. 

But Ulysses probably downplayed the scope of his power due to prejudice and the belief that he was just a slightly clever brat.
