Luke and Selina didn't return to New York for the next few days. Instead, they stayed in Los Angeles because it was close to San Francisco.
It was more than 500 kilometers away, and they didn't even need to use remote-controlled robots or drones.
Or they could put on their armor and fly over in stealth, low-speed cruise mode at night; it would only take them ten to twenty minutes.
They still had a level one clone in San Francisco, and didn't need to stay there in person.
The people from the Life Fund who had gone to San Francisco to clean up the mess had been marked one by one.
Now that they were in the limelight, it wasn't appropriate to make a move on them.
Little Black made a note of it and set aside a few months to investigate the details of the mastermind behind the scenes.
However, with the current intelligence, it can be determined that the Life Foundation is related to several defense suppliers, two of which were previously in close contact with Hydra members.
Unsurprisingly, these two companies were still in the interests of the government and capital groups.
It could only be said that the veteran groups in America were all like this — complicated relationships and conflicts of interest.
These two companies basically weren't Hydra, but for their own interests, they would definitely sell the rope to the person who hanged them.
It could only be said that interests were the main theme of these groups.
For example, Kilian was simply an example of the infighting between two forces in Roxon.
The side that Kilian was dealing with wasn't Luke's friend, and was also a bunch of people who had done all kinds of bad things.
With an "inexhaustible" amount of points in America, Luke was confident that he could level up to level 100 — provided that this country still existed when he had enough points.
…
At the same time, Haley was sitting on the balcony of an apartment building on the west coast of San Francisco, enjoying the warm October afternoon sun.
It had been a few days since she regained her freedom, but she was more and more puzzled.
She touched her face, but it didn't feel strange, but this was another face. Even the driver's license and credit cards that matched this face were legal.
This meant that as long as she wasn't stupid enough to jump out and expose her identity, she could live freely as Molly Quinn.
She didn't have to rely on psychological games to cheat money anymore, because she would wake up with a box of cash next to her.
That wasn't Haley's main concern.
She was only guessing Joker's personality through his arrangements.
At first, she thought that he was just a psychopath with superpowers.
Now, he could take out a mask that could change his appearance and throw out 200,000 dollars casually, which proved that he wasn't an idiot who only relied on superpowers.
He was very clear about the rules of this country: money.
Whether it was cash or a high-tech mask that could change one's face, they were all forms of money.
What made Simon so strong? The strange possession superpower was only a part of it.
However, according to the information he had disclosed, the United States government had a way to counter mind-controlling abilities.
If they were like some idiotic transmigrators who relied on mind control to deal with the government and the upper echelons of capital groups, they would end up in a terrible state.
Therefore, Simon created a protective shell of his stepfather's pharmaceutical company and successfully used it as capital to join the King's Park Sanatorium project.
It was only in an organization that he could control that Simon had enough time and opportunity to slowly use his possession ability to obtain other people's superpowers bit by bit.
As for Sentinel Services, the Heavenly Eye Society, and SHIELD, which had been killed by Luke, each of their superhumans would be equipped with a set of interference devices to ensure that they could only obediently become test subjects.
Luke, on the other hand, often used hypnosis and hallucination to do things, but he had always dealt with his opponents physically first.
In the game, this was equivalent to using items to break the opponent's Magic Defense, and then using Magic Attack to torture the low-HP monsters.
This was also why Luke had always attached importance to equipment.
For the time being, there was no one on Earth who could crush Tony in terms of technology and combat strength, or Luke in terms of superpowers.
He always fought with his two strongest hands.
As long as his opponent wasn't too strong, his survivability was definitely the best in the world.
It was very difficult for someone who relied on superpowers to make a living to be more powerful than someone who had money and superpowers.
Haley, as an elite who had been educated, naturally understood this.
Simon had once amazed her, and she had even admired him a little.
However, the even more powerful Joker had suddenly interfered, and seemed even more powerful and mysterious.
He clearly knew the huge benefits of the Extreme Pain Symbiosis, but Joker didn't care about it, and instead "gave" it to her.
The effect of the Extreme Pain Immunity mental ability continued to take effect in the next few days, and swept away the mental backdoor that Simon had set up.
Haley's love and admiration for Simon instantly plummeted.
The female doctor understood that this meant that her feelings for Simon before were basically from Simon's mind control, and not real feelings.
Also, if she met Simon again, she, who was immune to mind control, could beat the crap out of him — provided that Simon didn't run away.
Would Simon fight to the death? Of course not.
He had run away when he faced Joker at the seaside villa in Tijuana last time, and it would definitely happen a second and third time.
Would a man who couldn't suppress her still deserve her love and admiration?
Also, in the days after she was released, Haley had been watching the video of the battle between Joker and the Dark Knight over and over again.
Although Joker left in the end, nobody thought that he had lost.
He had used his body to fight the Dark Knight until his armor cracked before he calmly retreated.
This was definitely the best record of all the Bat Squad's enemies.
Moreover, Haley was released on the third day after the battle.
At that time, she saw that Joker's broken arm and dented sternum didn't exist; he was absolutely fine.
She knew that she had discovered a "little secret," and that he didn't mind sharing it with her.
He didn't need extreme pain, and his physique and recovery speed far exceeded that of an ordinary person.
Compared with relying on the Symbiosis to increase his combat strength, he might hate having an alien understand his thoughts more.
Thinking that, Haley couldn't help but sigh. She had no choice but to accept it, and even had to experience extreme pain.
Otherwise, she really wasn't confident that she could keep up with him.
Joker's opponent was the Life Foundation, which represented the capitalists, Simon, who had evil superpowers, and the Dark Knight, who was the main force of superheroes.
She would follow him into this mysterious and bizarre world, and would no longer be trapped in an ordinary, ordinary, and uneventful daily life.
Suddenly, she turned around.
She saw a person standing in front of the couch in the living room. He bent down with interest and sized up the two pieces of underwear on the couch.
Haley curled her lips. "I just took it off."
Luke straightened up and wiped his hair. "I know. Is that why you woke up in the afternoon?"
Haley walked into the room, closed the balcony door, and came over to him. "You don't seem to be focusing on the right thing."
Luke didn't look at the two heavy "spots" on the pajamas at all. Instead, he rubbed her cheek with his fingertips and nodded before he sat down on the couch next to her.
Haley was a little stunned. Wait, why was there something wrong with the plot?
