Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The next day, Selina gave Luke, who was making breakfast, a strange look. “What? Are you that happy after sparring with Steve yesterday? Don’t tell me you… ew~”
She shuddered in disdain.
Luke was completely indifferent to this level of ridicule. When the Level 2 clone started putting together a new ident.i.ty last night, the Level 1 clone was already finis.h.i.+ng up. After completing one last thing, it would return to New York.
In the system, the host’s level was 23. Strength: 33 (Level 1 Star of Justice +10, Level 2 Star of Justice +20)
Dexterity: 14 (Level 1 Star of Justice +10, Level 2 Star of Justice +20) Mental Strength: 19 (Level 1 Star of Justice +10, Level 2 Star of Justice +20)
Host’s experience: 5,715,000 / 7,000,000
Credit: 2,502,000
After his Strength reached 60, the stimulation from the Kunlun Chi Refining Technique increased it by another 3 points. At the same time, his Dexterity and Mental Strength also increased by 1. After breaking through the 20-stat stage twice, Luke had an additional 5 points.
The remaining 7 stat points from leveling up to level 23 were all devoted to Mental Strength.
Luke became the strongest of the three bodies once more.
After he caught Claudia in Mexico, his Level 1 clone went south for over 20 days, and made a fortune in two other countries. The three biggest drug lords and their illegal drugs gave Luke 600,000 experience and credit points in total.
As for Luke, after catching Lamar and hanging out in D.C. for a while, he dropped by Baltimore several times in pa.s.sing, and earned more than 100,000 experience and credit points.
This harvest completely met his expectations.
Next, the Level 1 clone would be devoted to playing the new ident.i.ty.
When the time was right, it would be reasonable to have a superhero alias and the new ident.i.ty put on a show.
For example, if something happened to the new ident.i.ty during an operation, Luke could have the Level 2 clone come out as a superhero to “take down” the Level 1 clone.
For example, deal the Level 1 clone a serious injury and make it fall into the river in a perfect enactment of the cla.s.sic “fake death” scene from the movies.
After a while, the new ident.i.ty could still come out to play, and it would be as fun as ever.
It was very normal for a new person whom n.o.body knew about to come out and use some superpower to mess around. In any case, n.o.body would be able to confront the original person, Jack, about it. Luke felt a little excited when he thought about it!
Five days later, at the headquarters in D.C., Nick Fury stared grimly at the virtual screen not far away. “Have you located them?”
In front of a computer not far away, the baldie, Sitwell, immediately replied, “We’re looking. However, the other party has set up interference. It’ll take at least five minutes to lock onto a location.”
Nick Fury said, “Hurry up. Also, have the various branches be ready to mobilize. At the very least, make sure that each branch can send out a rescue team at any time.”
As he spoke, his eyes never left the screen.
On screen, a strange figure in a purple suit was speaking to three people. “Honored guests, welcome to Jeff’s Playground. Oh, and say h.e.l.lo to the audience in front of the screen.”
In front of him, the only woman among the three began to make noise, but the two men didn’t move and just stared at Luke coldly. That was right, the mouths of the two men and one woman had been taped shut, so they couldn’t talk.
The two men were silent. Only the woman was a little agitated.
Luke stepped forward with a smile and slowly tore off the tape that was over the woman’s mouth. “Come, let’s hear the thoughts of our first female guest.”
Hill’s lips moved, and she felt the burning pain.
if she were a regular woman, she would have immediately cried in pain.
After her mouth felt a little more normal, Hill asked calmly, “Who are you? Why did you capture us?”
Luke bared his white teeth and straightened, spreading his hands. “Who am I? Where did I come from? Where am I going? Those are good questions.”
Then, he suddenly pinched Hill’s cheek and slowly drew closer. “However, smart women always die the quickest. So, beautiful lady, you must be careful the next time you ask questions.” He spoke right in front of her nose and mouth, and she frowned.
Unexpectedly, the man didn’t have bad breath.
Not only that, there wasn’t any sort of smell at all, and not even the usual scent of saliva.
Even at such close range, she also noticed that there was no smell of any sort of cologne or body odor on this man.
Hill’s heart grew even heavier.
People in contact with others every day would carry some sort of fragrance or body odor, or a combination of both.
A person without any clearly wasn’t ordinary.
Also, this person had actually been able to knock her out soundlessly and lock her up in this sealed room.
What was even more terrifying was that her two s.h.i.+ELD colleagues received
the same treatment.
These two were field agents who were much stronger and more experienced than she was, but they still couldn’t escape being caught. Exactly what did this guy want?
As Luke spoke, he let go of her face and took out a dark red handkerchief from the pocket of the new suit which Alfred had just created for him. He gently wiped the corners of Hill’s mouth. “Look, the lipstick has smudged. Such beautiful makeup should be cherished.”
Wiping off the lipstick, Luke tossed the handkerchief at her, then stood up and smiled. “Sorry, it’s just a joke.” He then bowed slightly to the three people sitting in front of him and said, “Let me officially introduce myself. I’m Jeff. You can call me Richard or Mr. Hausen.”
On s.h.i.+ELD’s side, it immediately got busy once more. “Investigate anyone related to this name immediately. Prioritize those with criminal records or unusual backgrounds.”
Luke, however, turned around and grinned at the camera. “Mm, your friends heard my name too. They’re definitely very excited.”
Turning around, he looked at the person on the left. “You’re happy too, right? Mr. John Garrett, male guest number one.”
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Luke covered his mouth as if he had said the wrong thing. “Oh dear, I forgot that there are confidentiality rules for level 7 s.h.i.+ELD agents.. Sorry, next time, I’ll remember to call you… Hm, what was it?”
