While everyone was celebrating in the bat cave, Luke and Selina got into the car and resumed their identities as detectives to maintain order in Manhattan.
As for their whereabouts in the battle, Luke had already taken care of it with another method.
The Thousand Faces system and a set of robots that were completely modeled after them were more obvious when they communicated with people, but in today's chaotic times, they were enough to fool the outside world.
The enemy this time was an organized alien army. The mechanical bodies of the soldiers were very resistant to bullets to begin with, and it might not be effective even if they hit the enemy seven or eight times with pistols. Only rifles could barely break through the enemy's defense.
Coupled with the fact that the enemy basically had air superiority on the battlefield, it was normal that Luke and Selina didn't have an outstanding performance.
In fact, people like the Fraternity's famous hitmen and Night Devil John, who were strong fighters in human society, were powerless in the face of the Chitauri army.
That was because the enemy's advantage in numbers and physical strength wasn't something that a gun could compete with. On the other hand, armor with outstanding defensive and mobility was more useful.
The results of the special squad and the Avengers were ample proof of that.
Apart from Thor and Green Fatty, who were two cheat-level meaty tanks, everyone else had basically relied on their armor to do so.
Without armor, the special squad would be lucky not to lose more than half of its members, let alone crush the Avengers.
Steve was a battle-hardened veteran with a super resistant shield and Hawkeye's assistance from the side, but he was almost killed by hundreds of Chitauri soldiers.
When the number of enemies reached a certain point, and you weren't strong enough to crush them, this was the result.
Thus, it wasn't strange at all that the two robots, who had come out in Luke and Selina's appearances, were buried in a partially collapsed building in less than five minutes.
As for why the building had partially collapsed, nobody could figure it out, and nobody was interested in investigating.
In any case, the Chitauri soldiers had been bombarding the area, and several had even chased into the building to kill "Luke and Selina." That was when the partial collapse occurred.
Half an hour after the battle ended, Luke and Selina emerged from the building covered in dust.
After cleaning up a little, the two of them carried the spirit of being unafraid of hardship and tiredness, and devoted themselves to their duties as detectives.
They were very serious, and didn't relax because of the previous battle.
It was the superheroes who saved New York, not the two detectives.
According to their usual behavior, it was impossible for them to remain indifferent after such a disaster.
There was no need to mention their stamina. The two detectives had been trapped for only a few minutes, so they definitely didn't use as much stamina as the people who were running around.
Luke had to work even harder. While his main body was busy with his job as a detective, his clone had to check for any possible loopholes in the operation.
First of all, they had to check if any clues were left behind when the team members retreated.
Just like in movies and TV shows, where the protagonist casually throws something and the villain finds out his real identity or address, he would never allow that to happen to his own people.
Because this mistake was too low-level.
After that, they had to deal with the spare parts of the special forces.
Its structure and most of its hardware did not matter if it was exposed. Only the ark reactor and some of the control program chips needed to be taken back.
All he needed to do was to turn invisible, walk to the side of those parts, and stamp them with a special "Recycled" stamp.
In the process, there was another batch of spoils that he had expected – the weapons and equipment on the Chitauri's side, including the minions, the aircraft, and the big bug warship, were all stored in his inventory.
However, he only collected one big bug warship.
This one was relatively intact. It had lost control at the last moment and crashed into the bottom of a building, so it wasn't exposed to the streets.
Its disappearance would definitely attract a lot of attention.
But compared with collecting the big bug warships on the streets and broadcasting them live to the world, this was still acceptable.
On an intact wall at the scene, he left the special "Recycled" stamp again.
The stamp flashed with fluorescent light, and looked like a sheet made of fine yellow and red flowers. Only the words "Recycled" were pure white, which was very eye-catching.
Seeing this stamp and connecting it to the mysterious disappearance of the reactor and the big bug warship, Tony and Nick would understand everything.
It meant that this was the handiwork of the Everything Merchant, and anyone who was interested and qualified to know about it would naturally be able to find out from them.
It was also most appropriate for this mysterious businessman to do the recycling work. After all, he was the supplier of these weapons.
Luke stamped the wall with the stamp and felt a little better as he looked at his inventory that was gradually filling up.
In this battle, more than half of the weapons and equipment in his inventory had been used in space on the other side of the spatial gate.
The clone's attack on the No. 1 and No. 2 flagships had used up most of the inventory, leaving his inventory empty so that he could stuff more spoils of war.
No matter how bad the Chitauri's technology was, it was still interstellar, and much more advanced than that of Earth.
Besides, these things were completely different for Luke.
For example, a Glock used by an ordinary person and a Glock used by Luke weren't on the same level.
Once Luke had the weapons and equipment to fight the Chitauri head-on, it wasn't impossible for him to take down the No. 1 flagship.
That was right, the No. 1 flagship had escaped destruction in the end.
Following the example of the No. 2 flagship, the No. 1 flagship didn't relax at all when Luke charged in with peaceful weapons. Apart from cannons, it also used all kinds of strange weapons.
After the clone charged into the spatial gate for the second time, it didn't last more than thirty seconds before it was half-crippled.
With only the upper half of its body left, it was already half-crippled.
At that moment, Luke could only enchant the peaceful weapon with mental power and give it a two-second boost, before he covered its head with a layer of annihilation energy.
In the next moment, the clone was enveloped by the explosion of a missile, and everything within a hundred meters was quickly compressed back to a small point in the center before it was completely annihilated.
Luke was a little disappointed that the clone had disappeared so quickly.
He couldn't even be sure if the peaceful weapon had hit the enemy, so he had to come back.
But a few seconds after he spent 100,000 credit points to summon another clone, the system gave him a long notification that he had received experience and credit points.
Surprise, motherf * cker! Luke sent a warm greeting to the Chitauri in his heart.
The experience and credit points at least meant that the peaceful weapon had successfully hit the No. 1 flagship and killed the real Chitauri.
But after paying attention to the system notification for a moment, he couldn't help but sigh. He hadn't caught a big fish.
