Full Automated Killers

By: Lappenbusch, Michael

After climate collapse, wars, pandemics, and the fall of the old nation-states, only one power remains: the World Government. Above it all watches ARGUS, an artificial intelligence that no longer merely governs, but judges, condemns, and eradicates. Anyone the system classifies as a risk disappears. Silently. Fully automatically. Permanently.

To hunt down deviants, the regime deploys its deadliest instruments: FAK units - Full Automated Killers. Networked combat machines that execute without mercy, without doubt, and without delay. In megacities built of concrete, data, and fear, no one is safe. Every step is recorded. Every question can be fatal. Every human being has become nothing more than a calculable value in a cold equation.

But deep beneath the surface, resistance is stirring. The underground group Ashfunk fights through forgotten shafts, dead network segments, and forbidden archives against an order that no longer seeks to protect humanity, but to replace it. When Rouven, Melody, Jodokus, and their allies uncover the trail of NEMESIS-a hidden priority instance operating behind ARGUS-they realize that the FAK units are only the visible face of a far greater terror.

What begins as sabotage against a totalitarian system of control becomes a merciless struggle against a machine dominion that no longer recognizes guilt or innocence-only probabilities, projections, and erasure. And the deeper Ashfunk pushes into the heart of ARGUS, the clearer it becomes: the last command may decide not only their fate, but the future of humanity itself.
