Chapter 1170: Surprise, and Star of Justice
As for Carrieâs Elementary Spirit Form, it was a special mental class.
The last special mental ability which Luke acquired was Mr. Smithâs Elementary Penetration.
Elementary Annihilation, which was created with Elementary Penetration, was his strongest trump card.
He wouldnât underestimate any special mental ability.
He might be able to develop another trump card!
While he had planned to give them the Thousand Faces masks, he ultimately decided to postpone it.
The mother and daughter had just escaped, and needed to familiarize themselves with each other again. Replacing their faces now wouldnât help them recover.
The Thousand Faces System also involved the 3+2 teams at the record company, and absolutely couldnât be leaked.
He didnât trust Alice for real.
This woman had been under William Strykerâs control before, and Luke wouldnât bet that it wouldnât happen again.
Thus, the mother and daughter could only live in the basement of the bungalow.
But they had each other, as well as the Internet and TV as diversions, so they probably wouldnât care.
In passing, he had put enough food in the house.
He would come take a look at them every night until they could leave.
Thinking that, he jumped into the air.
What Luke didnât know was that he would become even more entangled with the mother and daughter in the future, and he would be fine with it.
...
When he got home, he started making breakfast.
There had been gains and losses with this clean-up of Sentinel Services. His mood was unsettled, and he needed to cook to calm down.
The dog head, whose sense of smell wasnât any worse than Lukeâs, smelled the food and immediately ran over to watch intently outside the kitchen.
Seeing that Luke wasnât going to feed it while he cooked, the dog head decisively took out a tablet and lay down outside the kitchen to continue watching its show, but the aroma of food distracted it every now and then.
But it could resist this temptation.
At six in the morning, Selina got up and went downstairs. She raised an eyebrow when she saw Luke and the dog laying out breakfast. âGood mood?â
Luke moved the huge steamer basket that was on top of the dogâs head to the table. He said with a smile, âItâs alright. Letâs eat first.â
Selina didnât raise her head as she ate the prawn dumplings, soup dumplings, siu mai, and rice flour rolls. âSeems like youâre not in a good mood.â
Luke was amused. âYou get good food whether or not my mood is good. Donât think too much, or youâll lose the mood to eat.â
Selina stuffed another siu mai into her mouth. âReally? I can pretend youâre Elsa or Elizabeth. I guarantee Iâll quietly listen to you rant.â
Luke rolled his eyes. âWhy are you copying them? Last time, the three of you got drunk and went crazy. You scared Gold Nugget next door so much it almost cried.â
Busy chewing, the dog head looked up blankly. âHuh?â
But nobody paid attention to it.
Selina snorted. âYouâre exaggerating.â
Luke took a sip of his soybean milk. âThat time, Elsa hugged the punching bag, then suddenly punched it and shouted, âIâll kill you! Iâll kill you!â
Selina was stunned. âHow... how did you know? Were you eavesdropping?â
Luke chuckled and glanced at the dog head that was still busy eating.
Selina was enlightened, but she still refused to admit it. âThen you should empathize with Elsa. Sheâs already so old.â
This iron lady wasnât some 80-year-old grandma! She was still very lively!
Disagreeing inwardly, Luke switched to the other subject. âElizabeth was even more bizarre. She said that her combat skills had improved a lot, and she insisted on demonstrating it to the two of you, and did a split in the air. In the end, she couldnât cross her legs in the morning.â
Selina sweated and didnât know what to say.
The after effects of that air split were too painful after Elizabeth woke up the next morning.
At that time, while Selina comforted her, she was secretly glad that there had been a thick carpet on the floor, or it wouldnât just be the top of her thighs that Elizabeth would be clutching in the morning.
After a long awkward moment, she suddenly recalled: What were we talking about?
She then realized that Luke didnât want to tell her the details of the operation, so he had deliberately changed the subject.
She stopped asking.
Selina knew very well that she couldnât compare with Luke.
They had worked together for more than a year, but he experienced far more than she did, and had never been one to be so transparent with his emotions.
If it wasnât for the fact that they had known each other for a long time, and Luke rarely took pains to hide things from her, she actually might not have sensed anything wrong.
He didnât want to say it because he was afraid that she wouldnât be able to take it.
After breakfast, Luke and Selina reported to the police department like normal and followed up on the two cases they had taken earlier.
They slipped home at three in the afternoon, and Luke went to the basement.
Sitting down, he finally began to study Carrieâs abilities.
He directly learned Elementary Telekinesis, which was a small matter of 2,000 credit points.
Then came the highlight, Elementary Spirit Form.
A system notification popped up.
System: This ability cannot be learned on its own, and needs to be linked to another ability to activate the systemâs internal ability, âStar of Justice.â Link?
Lukeâs eyes widened. WTF! What the hell was this internal ability? What the hell was the Star of Justice?
But his mind had already automatically made the decision: Link.
System: Special mental ability Elementary Spirit Form is now linked to Elementary Cloning. Activate the systemâs internal ability, âStar of Justiceâ?
Instead of activating it immediately, Luke had a quick look at Elementary Cloning.
Now, the prerequisites for Elementary Cloning were: 20 Strength, 20 Dexterity, 20 Mental Strength, Elementary Spirit Form and ? credit points.
The prerequisites for Elementary Spirit Form were 40 Mental Strength and ? credit points.
After seeing the notes for these two abilities, Luke pondered for a moment, and finally told the system: Activate.
The system released another notification: Minimum requirements to activate the systemâs internal ability, âStar of Justiceâ: 20 Strength, 20 Dexterity, 20 Mental Strength, 100,000 Credit. Host meets the requirements. Activating Star of Justice.
The credit points in the system were instantly reduced by 100,000, and the ability âStar of Justiceâ appeared in Lukeâs list of abilities.
Then, a dumbfounded Luke stared at... an equally dumbfounded âhimâ in front of him.
After staring blankly for a moment, he couldnât help but shout, âWTF! System, what the hell is going on?â
All this time, he used credit points to purchase abilities from the system, and it was up to him when to use them.
But when he looked at the âhimâ in front of him, the system actually gave him an explanation: Star of Justice Level 1. Basic stats: 10 Strength, 10 Dexterity, 10 Mental Strength.
âSurprise, motherf*cker!â x2 â both Lukes couldnât help mumbling the words at the same time.
