Meta description: A leaked 2026 group chat reveals Mortalis, Bossman, and their inner circle planning red mercury operations, Spirit Tree sabotage, and Amazon rainforest chaos, with hilarious oops moments.
LEAK STATUS: Unverified, mildly incriminating
RECOVERED FROM: A waterproof tablet found beneath an overturned supply crate
DATE: August 2026
CHAT NAME:Absolutely-Not-A-Villain-Operations-Thread
Nobody is admitting who leaked this.
Sunbyte says it was “obvious.” Alpha says the encryption was “embarrassingly basic.” Primal reportedly laughed for six straight minutes after reading the chat title.
The following transcript appears to show Mortalis, formerly Leonard West, communicating with Bossman and members of his inner circle while planning another operation involving red mercury, the Spirit Tree, and the Amazon rainforest.
It also appears that villainy requires a surprising amount of equipment troubleshooting.

TRANSCRIPT BEGINS
Mortalis , 06:02
Operation Crimson Canopy begins at sunrise.
The Spirit Tree will be located, isolated, and connected to the red mercury relay.
No interruptions.
No mistakes.
No unnecessary questions.
Bossman , 06:03
Define “unnecessary.”
Mortalis , 06:03
Questions that begin with “Are we sure this is safe?”
Bossman , 06:04
What about questions that begin with “How much will this cost?”
Mortalis , 06:04
Also unnecessary.
Dr. Azra Karim , 06:05
The relay is ready. The red mercury core is stable.
Mostly.
Mortalis , 06:05
What does “mostly” mean?
Dr. Karim , 06:06
It means the warning light is decorative.
Bossman , 06:06
It is blinking.
Dr. Karim , 06:06
Decoratively.
Mortalis , 06:07
I am surrounded by amateurs.
Bossman , 06:07
You hired us.
Mortalis , 06:07
A temporary lapse in judgment.
Mortalis , 07:18
Status report. The expedition team should be moving toward the eastern canopy now.
Bossman , 07:19
Small logistical issue.
Mortalis , 07:19
Explain.
Bossman , 07:20
The trucks are stuck.
Mortalis , 07:20
Why?
Bossman , 07:20
Rain.
Mortalis , 07:21
This is the Amazon.
Bossman , 07:21
Yes, I’m aware. There is a considerable amount of it.
Dr. Karim , 07:22
The tires are half-submerged.
Mortalis , 07:22
Use the winch.
Bossman , 07:22
The winch is in the truck.
Mortalis , 07:23
Use the second truck.
Bossman , 07:23
It is also stuck.
Mortalis , 07:24
Use the third truck.
Bossman , 07:24
We brought two trucks.
Mortalis , 07:24
Why?
Bossman , 07:25
Budget meeting.
Mortalis , 07:25
I am ending this chat.
Bossman , 07:26
You say that every week.
Dr. Karim , 08:41
We have reached the temporary field station.
The red mercury case is intact.
The portable reactor is intact.
Bossman is not intact.
Bossman , 08:42
I tripped over a root.
Mortalis , 08:42
You tripped over a root?
Bossman , 08:42
It was an aggressive root.
Dr. Karim , 08:43
It was approximately three centimeters high.
Bossman , 08:43
A hostile three centimeters.
Mortalis , 08:44
Everyone focus. We are here to exploit,
Dr. Karim , 08:44
Protectively study.
Mortalis , 08:44
Study the Spirit Tree’s energy.
Bossman , 08:45
That is not what you said.
Mortalis , 08:45
I corrected myself.
Bossman , 08:45
You edited yourself in real time.
Mortalis , 08:46
Silence.
Mortalis , 09:10
The Spirit Tree’s energy should resonate with the red mercury core. Once the frequencies align, the relay can overwrite the natural signal.
The rainforest will become a power source.
The trees will answer to me.
Dr. Karim , 09:11
Technically, the ecosystem may experience widespread cellular instability.
Bossman , 09:11
In normal-person language?
Dr. Karim , 09:12
The trees may turn red. The water may become toxic. Wildlife may mutate.
Bossman , 09:12
That sounds bad for property values.
Mortalis , 09:13
This is not a property-value discussion.
Bossman , 09:13
Everything is a property-value discussion.
Dr. Karim , 09:14
This is why I prefer laboratory work.
Mortalis , 10:33
The relay is assembled.
Initiating connection.
Dr. Karim , 10:34
Wait.
Mortalis , 10:34
Why?
Dr. Karim , 10:34
The field respirator is connected to the reactor instead of the atmospheric filter.
Mortalis , 10:35
Who configured it?
Bossman , 10:35
The manual was upside down.
Dr. Karim , 10:35
The manual has diagrams.
Bossman , 10:36
The diagrams were also upside down.
Mortalis , 10:36
Correct the configuration.
Dr. Karim , 10:37
Already correcting.
Mortalis , 10:37
And nobody touch anything else.
Bossman , 10:38
I touched something.
Mortalis , 10:38
What did you touch?
Bossman , 10:38
The large red button.
Dr. Karim , 10:39
Why is there a large red button?
Mortalis , 10:39
Emergency shutdown.
Bossman , 10:39
Then it worked.
Mortalis , 10:40
You shut down the relay?
Bossman , 10:40
Temporarily.
Mortalis , 10:40
We have been here for four hours.
Bossman , 10:41
And we have learned a lot.

Mortalis , 11:22
New plan. We proceed without the relay.
Dr. Karim , 11:23
That is not scientifically advisable.
Mortalis , 11:23
It is strategically necessary.
Bossman , 11:24
What does the new plan involve?
Mortalis , 11:24
We locate the Spirit Tree manually.
Bossman , 11:24
With a map?
Mortalis , 11:25
With this map.
Bossman , 11:25
It says “Giza Pyramid.”
Mortalis , 11:25
That is the wrong map.
Dr. Karim , 11:26
You brought an expedition map for the Amazon, Antarctica, and Giza?
Mortalis , 11:26
I prefer comprehensive planning.
Bossman , 11:27
There is also a map of the moon.
Mortalis , 11:27
That is classified.
Bossman , 11:28
It has a coffee stain shaped like a moon.
Mortalis , 11:28
Stop examining the maps.
Dr. Karim , 12:03
I have detected movement near the eastern ridge.
Mortalis , 12:03
The Rainsavers?
Dr. Karim , 12:04
Possibly.
Bossman , 12:04
How many?
Dr. Karim , 12:04
At least five.
Bossman , 12:05
Primal?
Dr. Karim , 12:05
Likely.
Bossman , 12:05
Alpha?
Dr. Karim , 12:05
Also likely.
Bossman , 12:06
Sunbyte?
Dr. Karim , 12:06
The communications system just displayed a dancing orangutan icon.
Mortalis , 12:06
Alpha has breached the network.
Bossman , 12:07
Can he see us?
Dr. Karim , 12:07
He sent a message.
Mortalis , 12:07
What does it say?
Dr. Karim , 12:08
It is Morse code.
Bossman , 12:08
Translate it.
Dr. Karim , 12:09
“Your password is terrible.”
Mortalis , 12:09
Change the password.
Bossman , 12:09
To what?
Mortalis , 12:10
Something secure.
Bossman , 12:10
Mortalis2026?
Mortalis , 12:10
I am going to destroy this phone.
Sunbyte , 12:11
Hi, villains 👋
Bossman , 12:11
How did you get in here?
Sunbyte , 12:12
Your system asked me to accept cookies.
Dr. Karim , 12:12
That is not a security protocol.
Sunbyte , 12:12
It is when your IT department is three raccoons in a trench coat.
Mortalis , 12:13
Remove yourself from this channel.
Sunbyte , 12:13
Can’t. I made you all custom profile pictures.
Bossman , 12:14
Why am I holding a tiny chainsaw?
Sunbyte , 12:14
Brand consistency.
Mortalis , 12:14
I refuse to participate in this.
Sunbyte , 12:15
You’re wearing a glowing red suit and trying to turn a rainforest into a battery. Participation was implied.
Mortalis , 12:29
Deploy the field drones.
Bossman , 12:29
They are charging.
Mortalis , 12:30
They were charged last night.
Bossman , 12:30
Correct.
Mortalis , 12:30
Then why are they charging?
Dr. Karim , 12:31
Because Bossman plugged them into the decorative lantern.
Bossman , 12:31
It had the same cable.
Mortalis , 12:31
It had a flame on it.
Bossman , 12:32
Many technologies use flame symbols.
Sunbyte , 12:32
Name three.
Bossman , 12:32
I am busy.

Mortalis , 13:06
Enough. We move now.
The Amazon will not protect itself.
Dr. Karim , 13:07
Actually, local communities, conservation groups, researchers, and the Rainsavers are already working to protect it.
Mortalis , 13:07
That was a rhetorical statement.
Sunbyte , 13:08
It was also wildly inaccurate.
Bossman , 13:08
Can we at least agree that deforestation is profitable?
Dr. Karim , 13:09
No.
Sunbyte , 13:09
Absolutely not.
Mortalis , 13:09
This meeting is compromised.
Bossman , 13:10
The meeting was held in a tent with one chair.
Dr. Karim , 13:10
And the chair is broken.
Mortalis , 13:11
Proceed to the Spirit Tree.
Bossman , 13:11
Which direction?
Mortalis , 13:11
North.
Dr. Karim , 13:12
The compass says south.
Bossman , 13:12
The compass is upside down.
Sunbyte , 13:12
You are all going to get defeated by basic navigation before the heroes even arrive.
Mortalis , 13:13
I am muting everyone.
Sunbyte , 13:13
You can’t mute the person who owns the chat.
Mortalis , 13:14
Who owns the chat?
Sunbyte , 13:14
Me now.
TRANSCRIPT ENDS
The final message was posted at 13:16.
System notification: Mortalis has left the group.
System notification: Mortalis has rejoined the group.
System notification: Mortalis has changed the group name to “Operation Crimson Canopy.”
System notification: Sunbyte has changed the group name to “Oops All Villains.”
And that is how another global domination plan became a field-expedition group project with a broken chair, an upside-down map, and one extremely judgmental hacker.
Of course, the jokes do not make Mortalis harmless. His plans still threaten the Spirit Tree, the Amazon rainforest, and every living thing connected to it. His red mercury technology represents the same reckless attitude behind real-world deforestation: take more, control more, and worry about the consequences later.
The Rainsavers stand for a different idea: teamwork, rainforest conservation, responsible science, and protecting the living systems that sustain us. Those themes connect to real conversations about climate change, sustainable living, and Amazon rainforest protection.
