Chapter 1326: Obsessed with Research, and Career Launch
When Bullseye used this pa.s.sive, innate ability, his body and mind could easily coordinate and complete movements.
It could only be said that shooting and throwing were the easiest ways for him to demonstrate his talent with Elementary Precision, and they took the form of fixed patterns.
After Luke acquired this ability and combined it with Muscle Control and Imitation, he could very quickly apply it in close combat.
In a few more days, he would be able to apply Elementary Precision to all sorts of activities, not just combat.
In the end, this ability could be applied to all aspects of life.
With this ability, it would be very easy to be a chef, a bartender, a magician, an actor, and so on.
But this super strong innate ability, which was on par with Muscle Control, had been completely misused due to Bullseye"s twisted mentality.
After killing the neighbor"s cat with a rock at the very beginning, this guy found a sense of existence, from the throw → kill → thrill.
Later, he joined a gang, became a hitman, and followed Kingpin. He grew stronger and stronger, and his abilities were pared down.
Shooting and throwing were enough to thrill him, and he had never considered using his ability in other ways.
His guns and knives could hit his opponents even in close combat; there was no need for close combat at all.
Hence, he never studied close combat, nor did he apply his ability in his daily life.
Everybody was lazy.
Even ordinary people wouldn"t use their fists or cold weapons if they could kill enemies hundreds of meters away with one shot!
Bullseye wasn"t as good as Luke in this regard.
A certain guy who claimed that safety was everything in fact never felt secure at all.
Even though he was very strong, it wasn"t until his clone appeared that he gradually started to become more unrestrained.
More precisely, it was his clone that started to be more unrestrained.
On the other hand, Luke himself became more "honest" and conscientious. He did his job as a detective in New York City every day, and spent most of his time beating up ordinary gangsters to make a living.
After obtaining Elementary Precision, Luke was no longer as enthusiastic about harvesting points.
After a few days of research, he could only say that Elementary Precision had miraculous effects, but they weren"t beyond his imagination.
But he never underestimated a special mental cla.s.s ability.
He had developed Elementary Annihilation with Elementary Penetration at the very beginning, and then combined it with his Elementary Spirit Form to create the Star of Justice clone. He really didn"t dare say what super trump cards he could come up with now that he had Elementary Precision.
Instead of acting alone, his clone waited quietly in Italy for news from Gianna.
In any case, he only had one request: After your investigation is over, be sure to call me if you want to take down the Sacra Corona.
On top of that, Daywalker Eric left Rome two days later.
Luke had hurried over halfway to join the fun when the guy destroyed a vampire nest.
As a firm fan of stealing kills, Luke went back to his old line of work.
When Daywalker killed his way into the nest, Luke used the invisibility function on his armor to walk in.
Before taking sneak shots, he sent a secret transmission to Daywalker so that the guy wouldn"t get paranoid.
He also used this method to listen in as Daywalker violently interrogated the leader of this nest for information.
According to this small-time leader, their patriarch, Roberto Piero, hadn"t shown up in more than ten days. He was supposedly visiting relatives in America.
Luke took note of this information and fired a silver bullet just as Daywalker raised his knife. He successfully killed more than half of the gangsters, which gave him 2,000 experience and credit points.
Although Daywalker was surprised, he didn"t think much of it.
For him, the only good vampire was a dead one. It didn"t matter who killed them.
However, he subconsciously labeled this Boogeyman a petty person.
The three vampires who had fought the Boogeyman two days ago weren"t from this family at all. Now, this Boogeyman had even killed a small fry.
This guy… was incredibly vindictive!
However, Daywalker appreciated people who hated vampires.
This was the reason why this big, black man, who cherished his words like gold, actually said goodbye officially before he left Rome overnight.
Sure enough, Daywalker was rus.h.i.+ng back to America to continue making trouble for the vampires.
Luke wasn"t in a hurry.
With Daywalker around, the chances of finding more leads on vampires were higher; it was good to have a "pointer" on hand to lead the way.
A week pa.s.sed peacefully, and then it was June.
Although his clone didn"t touch the Sacra Corona, it took the time to sweep through a few of the Ndrangheta"s major warehouses, and successfully got rid of a huge pile of illegal drugs, thereby maintaining Luke"s daily harvest of experience and credit points.
In New York, the NYPD commissioner officially resigned.
For now, there was no new commissioner.
The situation in NYPD was extremely complicated, and the atmosphere was strange.
A lot of people dropped by, and there were always two or three people who would hide together in a corner and mutter to each other. When there were more people, they immediately shut up.
In this sort of environment, all kinds of rumors exploded in NYPD.
First a.s.sistant Commissioner Brad, Chief Nelson (four stars), three other a.s.sistant commissioners, and several department heads became the focus of the gossip.
Any of the first five people had a chance of becoming the commissioner.
As for the department heads, any one of them could become Chief of Department after Chief Nelson was promoted.
At the same time, these NYPD bigshots were also taking action.
The difference was that the a.s.sistant commissioners were all making moves at a higher level.
The department heads, on the other hand, inspected the work in various departments, and from time to time, made promises to the mid- and low-level officers which basically boiled down to: "If I become Chief, I will pay more attention to XX."
For a time, it felt like NYPD was full of demons.
This was especially obvious at HQ.
The Detective Bureau, which had been in the limelight recently, naturally couldn"t escape this "bad luck." Not only did they not escape inspection by the department heads, even the Chief of Department dropped by to publicly express his satisfaction with the current Detective Bureau.
This situation was a little strange.
What the Chief needed most right now was support from above, not so much from the low- and mid-level officers.
What was the point of inexplicably dropping by the Detective Bureau?
At the very least, the new director, Walter, had a rough guess. Everybody else, including John McClane, was full of questions.
Luke and Selina understood what was going on.
Not long after Chief Nelson was done with his inspection, Walter received a call.
After hanging up, Walter called Luke and Selina into his office and had them close the door.
That night, Luke and Selina showed up at a villa in New Jersey, which was only a river away from Manhattan.
