Dito Flores was finally dead!
But he hadn't died by Luke's hand. But with Roger around, Luke couldn't kill the drug lord himself.
After a long silence, Roger crouched down and took off the handcuffs from Dito's hands. Grunting, he got into the car and said, "It's not safe here. If you're upset, you can shoot a few times. Can't you just take a few pictures? "
Martin heaved a long sigh and shook his head. Looking at a dark corner where nobody was, he said in a low voice, "Thank you."
System: You have received Martin Riggs's gratitude. You may now learn all of his abilities.
Martin Riggs's abilities: Basic Firearms, Basic Combat … Basic Long-Range Sniping.
Luke, who was on his way out, simply smiled and didn't think too much of it.
He just had to be more serious when he got back.
As he walked, he told Selina, "You can pick me up now."
Then, he took out the rest of his homemade weapons from his inventory and threw them at the half-burned weed plantation not far away.
There was another series of explosions and a rain of fire, and the entire weed plantation was engulfed in flames.
Seeing Selina and the open car door, Luke got into the driver's seat with a smile. "I'm done."
Selina said, "Alright, stop being naughty. There are cars coming from Tijuana. They're still a little far away, but there are a lot of them. "
Laughing, Luke turned the wheel and drove the car southeast.
As the car sped along, Luke was delighted.
As the last weed plantation was engulfed in flames, a system notification popped up.
System: Eliminate some important members of Dito Flores's gang and destroy the weed plantation base. Mission accomplished.
Total experience: 10000. Total credit: 10000.
Contribution rate: 90%. EXP + 9,000. Credit + 9,000.
Together with what he had gained at Dito's manor, Luke had gained more than ten thousand experience and credit points tonight.
Destroying the illegal drugs had given him a lot of experience and credit points.
Otherwise, with only three hundred or so criminals in the stronghold, and many of them had escaped, he would have gained five or six thousand experience and credit points at most.
In the system's eyes, the credit for destroying the illegal drugs and cleaning up the gang members was almost split equally.
This was … wonderful.
In any case, the illegal drugs were useless to him. Even if he had a warehouse full of them, it wouldn't hurt at all.
His quest to earn experience and credit points during his vacation was also completed.
After all, he felt like he couldn't make ends meet by targeting the gang leaders in Los Angeles.
If Los Angeles continued like this, there would probably be big trouble this year.
Open source was the right way to think.
He had secretly traveled to Mexico and earned tens of thousands of experience and credit points. It was more efficient than grinding gangsters in Los Angeles.
After all, he had to be careful in Los Angeles. It was a crowded city, and the remaining gangsters would cause social unrest.
Mexico? In any case, there were many gangs, and they were all cancerous tumors of society. Getting rid of one in one go wouldn't make much of a difference.
The remnants would naturally flow into other gangs and continue their criminal enterprise.
Maybe the next time they bumped into Luke, these experience and credit points would still be his.
As the car sped away, Selina helped him remove his bulletproof vest and other equipment. She stuffed everything into a large bag and threw it into the backseat.
Then, she gave him a bottle of purified water with a straw. "Alright, you've avenged Martin by coming here. You don't have to be so happy."
Luke chuckled and drank the water.
It would be troublesome to help Martin and Roger clean up after he returned.
But Selina was still too naive.
Was he avenging Martin? That was just a side benefit at most.
Also, he had killed Dito Flores in the end, and Martin and Roger had lost an important bargaining chip. If things went wrong, they might be suspended when they returned.
Speaking of which, it was more likely that he had screwed them over, especially Roger.
As long as Martin got his revenge, he didn't care if he continued working as a police officer.
Roger, on the other hand, was doing fine as a level two sheriff.
The black baldie was old, but he was a good person. Also, he was already very unscrupulous to begin with, and wouldn't be able to take the blame.
The car didn't stop as it drove southeast.
Selina soon fell asleep as well.
She wasn't Luke. She also needed to rest after traveling through the night, fighting, and then hurrying back.
Before dawn the next day, Luke and Selina returned to the Mexican mountains on the other side of Big Bend Park. They drove the car into the river and set off again.
Luke carried Selina on his back as if they were walking on flat ground, when she suddenly sighed.
Luke asked, "What's wrong?"
After a brief silence, Selina said, "It would've been easier for you if I hadn't come with you, right?"
Tonight, she had finally seen Luke go all out, and she suddenly felt that there was a huge gap between them.
Before, they had only been investigating cases. She had seen Luke fight with her own eyes, but there hadn't been many criminals, so she hadn't felt it too deeply.
Tonight, Luke had worked with Martin to take down Dito's manor, which was guarded by almost a hundred people, which was already terrifying.
After that, Luke had single-handedly routed more than three hundred people from Dito's plantation, and the enemy hadn't even been able to fight back properly.
That had completely exceeded Selina's expectations.
Luke chuckled. "You're my partner, not my fighter. Why are you so sentimental?"
After a brief silence, Selina said, "Don't comfort me. I'll train hard and try to help you for a while longer. "
Luke frowned as he ran. Was this guy's confidence shaken by his strength and she wanted to retire?
They fell into a long silence.
Luke hadn't expected that to happen.
But if Selina really didn't want to be his partner anymore and he got a new one, he would feel a lot of trouble looming over him.
Luke had always been cautious. He wouldn't really trust someone who hadn't gone through life-and-death situations with him from the very beginning.
He didn't have anything that could quickly improve Selina's combat ability, which wouldn't be easy to get.
If it were that easy, Obadiah wouldn't have created Iron Monger after Tony.
If it were that easy, General Ross wouldn't have kept an eye on the Hulk.
There were a lot of ways to strengthen others in this world, but it wasn't easy to get your hands on them.
Even if he did, most of them had powerful side effects.
Or … could he make a simplified version of Tony's Iron Man armor?
This was a relatively safe path.
As long as he made it a little ugly and low-end, Tony probably wouldn't associate it with his skills.
However, even if it was a simplified version of the equipment, it would still require a huge investment.
It still required money! Also, it had to be money that could be traced.
The two of them returned to Big Bend National Park in silence.
