The assassins moved with absolute certainty, fully expecting the young "mad billionaire" to be turned into a bloody sieve within a second.They had completely miscalculated their target.Before the bullets could even cover half of the distance, Caleb’s mind shifted into an entirely different realm of perception. With his newly acquired God-Level Martial Arts reward, time itself seemed to violently slow down. The trajectories of the oncoming bullets became visible as faint, shimmering ripples in the foggy air. Every micro-movement of the mercenaries' muscles laid bare their next intentions.Caleb moved. To the assassins, it looked as if he had simply dissolved into thin air.He moved like a literal phantom, his body swaying with an impossible, fluid grace. The armor-piercing rounds hissed harmlessly through the empty space where he had been standing a

This was the ultimate economic ammunition. It wasn't just a simple scandal; it was a lethal corporate bomb. If unleashed properly, it would completely destroy the Vance empire from the inside out, turning their untouchable wealth into absolute garbage.[PING!]Suddenly, the warm golden light of the penthouse office was violently shattered.The air in front of Caleb’s desk warped, and the system's familiar holographic screen materialized before his face.But it was no longer the calm, soothing sapphire blue from before. The code began to rewrite itself at a frantic glitched speed, the entire interface shifting into a deep pulsing, violent crimson light.A heavy metallic chime blared directly into his mind, vibrating through his entire nervous system.[Wrath Spending Mode: Core Parameters Initiated.][System Notice to Host: Standard Mode is now temporarily suspended.

Chloe dropped her phone onto the mattress, her body turning entirely to ice.The blacklisting of her was absolute. Caleb’s terrifying and untouchable influence had seamlessly locked her out of the wealthy lifestyle she had spent her entire life trying to reach.She is no longer an elite socialite but a complete pariah, stripped of her borrowed glory and left completely exposed to the harsh reality of her choices.Deep visceral terror began to claw at her chest. The thought of returning to the dark slums, eating cheap instant noodle and being ignored by high society made her physically sick.She scrambled across the bed, snatching her phone back up with a frantic, desperate energy.She opened Caleb’s old unpinned contact profile.

"A common factory laborer who stumbled into some overnight wealth thinks he can just walk in here and play banker.""He bought the majority shares, but he doesn't know a single thing about institutional finance," a female executive chuckled softly, adjusting her gold-rimmed glasses. "A tier-one banking ecosystem isn't a street-side market. The boy will probably run our asset portfolios directly into the ground within a single week.""Let him try," Harris whispered, a dark, opportunistic gleam in his eyes.
