While the clones were busy, Luke's main body slowly counted the harvest this time.
The four Death Warriors contributed a little more than 30,000 experience and credit points.
Luke and his teammates killed more than 400 Hydra members in SHIELD and on the three motherships, and received 120,000 experience and credit points.
Pierce, the big boss, was as "valuable" as expected. He alone provided 520,000 experience and credit points.
Who knew how many wars and violent conflicts this guy had planned over the past few decades?
Even if the system didn't deem him as evil as personally killing people, he had still accumulated a terrifying amount, and set a record for the highest score for a single boss.
Finally, Luke had a 40% contribution rate for stopping Operation Insight. Together with the contribution of his teammates, he had earned 7.23 million experience and credit points from this mission.
Together with other recent gains, the host's experience in the system was now 7665000/9000000.

Hydra truly deserved to be Luke's "designated" super leek.
This mission alone had almost leveled him up twice in a row, which was more than the battle of New York.
It could only be said that Hydra wasn't as strong as the Chitauris when it came to doing bad things, but they were much more determined and persistent.
Not just anyone could do something like that after decades of doing bad things and persisting in stirring up trouble all over the world.
On the other hand, Bat Squad didn't run into any danger during this operation.
Apart from Luke, everyone else went online in prototypes. The entire operation was very easy, and couldn't compare to the battle of New York at all.
But that didn't mean that Hydra and Pierce were stupid.
Thinking about it carefully, Luke couldn't help but admire Pierce's Operation Insight.
The most critical and fatal reason for Pierce's failure was that he ran into Elena's "Painting of Foresight."
If he hadn't been exposed by this unsolvable ability in advance, Pierce's plan would have been flawless.
Luke had learned from Elena's painting that Pierce was after the motherships, which was why he had set up the plan in advance.
According to Pierce's plan, he could use the test as an excuse to start the reactors of the three space carriers until they were fully charged.
Everyone thought that it was just a test and that the process would not be interrupted.
The only four directors who could stop the test were all tricked by Pierce to S.H.I.E.L.D. and gave them the Deadly Brooch.
After charging, the three space carriers could activate the protective shield when they rose out of the dock.
Even if the US government noticed something unusual at that time, they would have to spend another ten to twenty minutes to confirm the situation.
The motherships equipped with protective shields had long entered low-Earth orbit, enough to deal with the first wave of attacks from the various countries and complete a full-scale attack on North America.
At this time, when they encountered an unstoppable attack, they would also launch all their mid-range and long-range missiles and blow up dozens of important Eurasian cities.
The implementation of Operation Insight up to this point was enough to reach more than 20% completion and successfully cause chaos in the world.
Unfortunately, Pierce ran into a cheater who not only "foresaw" the key to the plan but also asked Natasha to disguise herself as Director Holly to complete the decapitation plan and control Pierce.
Without Pierce's command, Hydra's people can only act according to the plan.
Thus, nobody gave the order to stop the bat squad, rescue Pierce, or launch an attack in advance to obtain some of the results.
Hydra was an extremely hierarchical organization.
They couldn't change the steps of a major operation like Operation Insight at will.
For example, if any of the three space carriers opened fire in advance, they definitely wouldn't be able to enter low-Earth orbit, and the plan would be completed at most 5%.
For Operation Insight, which had a huge investment and was difficult to replicate, a 5% completion rate was a failure.
At this point, Pierce still hadn't lost.
If Steve and Natasha had caught him at that time, the two Death Warriors would have had a chance to stall them for a moment, allowing Pierce to escape and stabilize the situation.
In the end, the two Death Warriors pounced, and Pierce was hypnotized and didn't know anything.
When Luke used hypnosis and hallucination to forcibly extract the secrets in Pierce's head, the big boss' last chance to fight was completely gone.
In Pierce's plan, mutual destruction was part of it.
The three space carriers immediately opened fire and self-destructed, and the consequences were equally serious.
All in all, Pierce had lost unjustly, but not unjustly at all.
It was the foresight ability that had never appeared before that had discovered his Operation Insight ahead of time.
And anyone could lose to such a heaven-defying cheating ability, so it wasn't his fault.
…
Five days after SHIELD's internal strife, Luke had added up the seven points he had earned from the upgrade, before Selina returned from vacation.
Luke didn't want her to think about this place on vacation, so he lied to her.
But now that she was back from vacation, he still told her the gist of what had happened.
Selina wasn't unhappy. After all, she was returning home with her parents.
She would probably only go back to show off once in her life to fulfill Mario and Sandra's wishes.
The two of them had been honest for too many years. Without Selina, who was used to seeing big things, they didn't have the confidence to speak.
Unfortunately, they were still brooding over the fact that their marriage had been rejected. It was like the saying, "the river flows east for thirty years, then turns west for thirty years."
This had nothing to do with slapping their faces; it was just that the two of them had held back when they were young.
If their family had been ordinary all their lives, this anger would naturally have dissipated because of old age.
But Selina had turned the family upside down.
She wasn't a top magnate, but in Selina's grandparents' eyes, she was definitely a "rich person in the city."
There were two misunderstandings.
First, Selina had always said that the "small company" she had invested in only made two to three hundred thousand a year, and Mario and Sandra didn't suspect anything.
After all, it was already incredible that their daughter, who had an annual salary of more than thirty thousand, could make three to four hundred thousand a year.
Second, like daughter, like mother. When Selina's mother, Sandra, returned to her hometown, she gave a discount on her income, saying that she had to pay off the loan on the ranch, and only made a hundred thousand a year.
What she meant was, of course, "I don't have any money right now." It also meant that the family had "fixed assets," so that a lot of people in their hometown wouldn't ask them for money for no reason.
It was night, and Luke and Selina were barbecuing on the roof with Gold Nugget.
Luke, who was crazily adding ingredients to the eggplant in his hand, couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this "return home" scene that was reminiscent of an online novel from his previous life.
Selina's excuse to her family at the beginning was that she had consulted Luke because she was worried that her family would suddenly become rich.
In the end, Sandra's excuse to return home was that she had consulted Selina.
Thankfully, that was the end of it.
