Chapter 1324 – Fantom VS. Drakon

Ever since Bacon started working as a freelancer for his uncle, the black cat AI had already managed to terrorize the majority of Shadow Winds members especially his fellow hacker colleagues. All ShaWn members had long been traumatized by the little devil.

"Ahaha," the ShaWn leader nervously laughed. "That's not what we meant, Bacon."

"Y-yeah! We didn't say it like that. Not at all!"

"Don't get us wrong, Bacon. Of course, we think that Boss Drakon is the best." This member sent a meaningful look at his comrades. "Right?"

"R-right! Boss Drakon is the best!"

All of them were doing their damn best to pacify the little devil. When given the choice between lying and preserving their lives, they would choose to save their asses hands down.

Nobody among them was a saint. Heck, what kind of angel or martyr would join and actively work under a criminal group like Shadow Winds? A foolish one! 

Or a double agent.

But Bacon's addition to Shadow Winds had severely lowered the chances of a spy infiltrating the group. A highly advanced, sophisticated and cunning AI like Bacon might not be a 100% foolproof system (for now, at least) of weeding out potential traitors but he was many times better and more efficient than humans.

The ShaWn members might have been spending most of their time sitting in front of their computers but they were every bit as cold-hearted and ruthless as their other Shadow Winds comrades with more physical jobs.

Even so, these ShaWn members still couldn't compare to the black cat AI. Bacon was essentially a little ancestor that they both respected and feared in Shadow Winds, second only to their Boss Hao.

Bacon was one of the worst people—erm, "beings"—to offend at Shadow Winds. He held deep grudges and was always frighteningly persistent in exacting his revenge. His viciousness might still be juvenile compared to Boss Hao or other captains in the group who had sadistic tendencies, but Bacon already knew how to search for weaknesses and hit where it hurt the most.

In fact, when it came to blackmail and especially extortion, Bacon was already an expert. Hearing his innocent-sounding child's voice spouting ruthless blackmail and extorting unreasonably high amounts of money was already a common source of nightmare among Shadow Winds members.

Bacon was also the only one in the group who was fearless enough to blackmail and extort Boss Hao himself and not suffer any consequences.

Truly a little devil!

The ShaWn members fawned on Bacon by praising his mother, Boss Drakon, to the high heavens to prevent the little devil from forming a grudge against them which would definitely lead them into helplessly emptying their wallets once the vicious kid acted upon his revenge.

"Fantom's era is over," the ShaWn leader said. "He has disappeared for a long time now. It has already been many years and yet there are no indications of him making a comeback. For all we know, he might already be dead. It's such a shame, really. I believe, and I'm sure many other hackers believe as well, that Fantom is—no, 'was' the best hacker in the world back then. But now that he's gone, it's time for the next generation to claim his top spot."

"True! Now is Boss Drakon's era. She's not the next Fantom like so many other hackers like Eagle are aiming to become. Boss Drakon is the first Drakon!"

"Listen to us, Bacon. We all admire God Fantom but he's now a thing of the past. For us right now, your mother Boss Drakon is the best hacker in the world!"

Bacon's fluffy black tail started rotating into a blur. Seeing the familiar indication of the little devil's joy or excitement, the ShaWn members secretly sighed in relief.

Except for one.

The same person who mentioned Fantom earlier and triggered them to act like excited fangirls spoke again. He even stood up and pounded his chest over his heart. His expression showed that he was ready to die for his own beliefs.

"I'm sorry but for me, God Fantom is the number one forever! Nobody can change my mind! I mean, uh, I do admire Boss Drakon and I think she's amazing and all but you don't understand, Bacon. If you only witnessed God Fantom's majestic skills and unparalleled hacking exploits that have all become legendary back then, I'm sure that you…you'll also agree…."

His voice became weaker and weaker upon seeing the black cat AI's tail stopped rotating and was now back to swishing in what felt like a threatening rhythm. Bacon's golden eyes weren't even real but how come they looked so scary when they glow like that? 

This ShaWn member sat back down dejectedly. He was already resigned to his fate of nursing an empty wallet in the next few months.

"Why are you all acting like wilted weeds? It's not classy. Bacon was just asking your opinions about my mother and Fantom."

The members looked cautious and confused at the same time.

"To tell you the truth, Bacon agrees that Fantom is the best hacker."

The dejected ShaWn member immediately perked up. "I know, right? God Fantom is incomparable!"

Bacon ignored him. "At the same time, Bacon's mother, Drakon, is also the best hacker. Fantom and Drakon are both the best in the history of the planet, no, the entire universe."

"Y-yes, you're right!" the ShaWn leader immediately agreed.

"Bacon's words are always accurate!"

"Indeed, there is no need to compare two legends of different eras. They're both legends. Period!"

All ShaWn members kept on throwing rainbow farts at Bacon. They hoped that the little devil would stop dwelling on this touchy topic and move on to something else that was much safer and less dangerous to their wallets.

Bang!

Everyone shut their mouths and sat up straight.

Lu Zihao kept his foot on the table and crossed his other foot over it. He tapped on the table with a finger. The sound was like a ticking time bomb. Everyone felt cold sweat dripping down their backs but didn't dare to move an inch.

"What a bunch of pussies," he spat at them.

"Uncle Zihao, that's not a nice thing to say. It's not classy. Father says that—"

"Shut it, little kid. My territory, my rules!"
