Report

The last two important rewards came from Agent Phil.

Firstly, Luke wasn't a mutant.

Regarding this, he could basically confirm.

After all, he had tried many times, but Daddy System had never added the X-gene to any of his abilities.

Also, Carol's Elementary Self-Healing and Iron Hide Creech's Elementary Toughening required too many Strength points.

Luke speculated that Carol's Strength was only two or three times that of a regular person's, and Creech's was four or five times that of a regular person's.

Clearly, Carol and Creech had abilities that came with their X-genes, while Luke's abilities were based on his own basic attributes.

Thus, Luke couldn't learn Crystal's Elementary Electromagnetic Control, because he wasn't a mutant and didn't have the X-gene.

Secondly, the system's inventory couldn't be detected by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s detector.

When he was beating Pickridge, he had used the ability of his storage space to fill the cylinder with bullets. However, Phil's detector only detected traces of the red-skinned man's spatial movement.

That was very important for Luke.

It would be a huge problem for him if there was a detector that could detect the usage of his inventory.

He had specifically asked Dustin for the third special gun, the M500, to go along with his inventory.

Only this kind of revolver could be quickly reloaded in his inventory.

At the same time, the more the enemy knew about the M500's capacity, the easier it would be for them to fall for it.

Iron Hide and Creech had been tricked to death by Luke's "eleven-shot" M500!

Also, his jacket could cover up the process when he took out the gun, and he could switch between the M500 and the M686 at will. That was why he had always chosen an armpit holster.

He could totally carry the M686 but take out the M500. In any case, he would always be carrying the same gun.

Who wouldn't like a .50 caliber gun that could be carried around and fired hundreds of rounds in a row without needing to be reloaded?

With these three major rewards, Luke had made a huge profit from this security mission.

In the next few days, Luke and Selina's work and life went back to normal.

Luke had no idea whether it was Tony Stark's guarantee or Agent Phil's hard work.

Elsa had submitted a lot of new cases, but Luke and Selina had already been canceled from Stark Industrial Park.

In fact, there was no need for Luke and Selina to take action now.

Stark Industries had been slapped in the face by this brazen attack, and they had increased the number of security guards at the venue to almost five hundred people.

Secondly, LAPD also mobilized more officers.

Stark's venue was now surrounded by a peaceful and tranquil river. It looked like a peaceful and prosperous era.

On the contrary, LAPD was as busy as a bee.

A bunch of troublemakers at the venue were thrown into the police station's temporary detention center.

What awaited them was detention for anywhere from one to five days.

The DA will send them to the detention center, the court, and the prison in a one-stop service to ensure that these people go where they should go.

However, it basically had nothing to do with Luke and Selina.

The two met with Wales the next day, recorded a detailed report, and signed a confidentiality agreement. That was the end of the process.

After that, no one else investigated them.

Compared to the police officers who were present at the time of the attack, their treatment was much better.

The other police officers present had to go through at least five rounds of questioning, which would take up to ten to twenty hours.

A lot of people wanted to dig out useful clues from their mouths to find the mastermind behind the shocking attack.

Based on the police department's statistics, Sonia, an intelligence analyst, made a private assessment.

If the building in Stark Industrial Park had been blown up and all the bigwigs in the building had been killed, their combined net worth would be more than two hundred billion dollars.

Takagi, who was worth hundreds of millions of dollars, didn't even make it onto the list of magnates.

This group of two hundred billion dollars didn't include the major shareholders of Stark Industries or Tony Stark himself.

What was rare was that LAPD's large-scale arrest operation didn't involve the TV stations making sarcastic remarks.

The TV stations might have offended a few magnates, or even a lot of them, but they didn't want to offend a bunch of magnates from major industries.

Not to mention that several major shareholders of the TV stations had been in Stark Industrial Park that day.

That was also the reason why, despite the overwhelming coverage of the attack on TV, none of them mentioned Luke and Selina, who had played a major role in it.

Luke and Selina were both relieved.

What was so good about being famous? They didn't want to be promoted, and they had to rely on themselves to get rich.

Luke didn't want to deal with the red-skinned weirdo.

It was mainly because the guy's ability was too troublesome. It would be very troublesome if he went after their families.

However, Luke remembered the guy.

If he had the chance to run into him again, he would definitely change his face and get rid of him.

People who launched an attack didn't have a bottom line.

Enemies without a bottom line better die as soon as possible.

Despite the commotion outside, two people and one dog leisurely investigated the case as usual.

Gold Nugget couldn't have been more satisfied in the past few days.

Wherever the journey took him, he would eat there.

Two people and one dog all needed a lot of food, and they weren't short of money.

Whether it was snacks, fast food, or a feast …

Fine! Speaking of a feast, Gold Nugget was at its most dispirited.

Because it couldn't get in.

Most proper restaurants didn't allow pets in.

While it wasn't happy about the word "pet," Luke wouldn't allow it to bite a waiter who blocked the way.

In the end, the dog could only wait for Luke and Selina to finish eating before he gave it a double feast. Only then did the dog not flip out.

It was too busy eating in the backseat to complain about the waiter's "racist" behavior.

Just like that, a week passed, when Luke suddenly received a call from an unknown number.

He picked up and said a few words, before he hung up with a strange expression on his face.

Looking at his face, Selina asked, "Jimena's looking for a boyfriend?"

Luke glared at her helplessly. "What are you thinking? It's Chairman Weyland."

Selina was shocked. "Don't tell me you're the one who exposed him?"

Luke wiped the nonexistent cold sweat from his forehead. "I give up. Can't you think of something better?"

Selina continued guessing. "Or does he have a young and beautiful daughter who wants to get to know you?"

Luke suddenly felt that something wasn't right.

Selina's train of thought was occasionally out of the ordinary, but it was rare for her to go off track like this.

He asked curiously, "Where did you get all these ideas from?"

Hearing his question, Selina suddenly frowned and thought for a moment, before she suddenly roared angrily, "Gold Nugget, you idiot! What kind of TV series are you watching every day?"
