Chapter 1111 - Level-Up, Just Passes Muster

Chapter 1111: Level-Up, Just Passes Muster

Even if the High Table couldn’t count on Gianna, it would definitely come after John Wick, which had nothing to do with Luke.

After taking off the Thousand Faces mask, Luke Coulson was just a diligent NYPD detective.

He had Little Snail review the operation tonight, and didn’t find anything out of place. He poured himself a cup of coffee and sat down to drink it.

The system was being remodeled, and Luke couldn’t see the data.

But he still remembered his harvest from tonight.

There had been 169 regular hitmen, worth 160 experience and credit points per person for a total of 27,100.

There had been 18 famous hitmen, worth 1,200 experience and credit points per person for a total of 21,800.

Sloan, that old fellow, was different. He alone had provided 30,000 experience and credit points.

Based on his own confession, he had probably killed hundreds of people himself, and who knew how many people had been killed after he faked the list of names from the loom.

Even though most of them were bad guys, some of them didn’t deserve to die, and Sloan had still committed a lot of crimes.

However, a human being like him actually had Mephisto’s power. Even if it wasn’t a lot, it was enough to turn him into a bundle of evil thoughts, so he couldn’t be considered human anymore. It wasn’t surprising then that he was worth so many experience and credit points.

Sloan’s abilities were also divided into two parts. Luke basically had everything that human beings could use, like Physical Outburst and Curve Shooting.

Unsurprisingly, there were the words “evil bestowment, unavailable” on the power from Mephisto.

Sloan was thus only worth that amount of points.

Now, the host’s experience was 54,000 / 500,000.

Credit: 370,100

Host has leveled up to level 17.

Strength: 40

Dexterity: 21

Mental Strength: 40

Extra stat points: 6

He had leveled up.

Sure enough, the High Table hadn’t let Luke down. In just a month, it had delivered 300,000 experience points to his door and helped him level up.

In fact, Luke had only sheared a bit of Camorra fleece, and then slaughtered the fat sheep that was the Fraternity; the Continental Hotel had even proactively sent him a pile of “wool.”

He had gotten rid of less than 10% of the power of the twelve members; it was still too early for him to shear all these fat sheep.

In addition, Luke had verified the level of his own strength once again.

He was only a little more than the best, but far from the bottom.

In a head-on battle, it would be practically impossible for him to kill the God of Thunder and the Hulk. The most he could do was retreat.

Tony Stark was a little stronger than he was, mostly because of his R&D skills, which was too much of a cheat. His combat ability was also increasing rapidly, but currently, Luke could absolutely deal with him.

As for the other Avengers, like Captain America, Iron Patriot, the Black Widow and Hawkeye, they were no threat to Luke.

It could even be said that excluding Captain America, who had the “50-50 chance” halo, none of the others would be able to last more than a few minutes or even seconds against Luke.

Of course, it wasn’t that these superheroes were useless; it was just that they weren’t solely just fighters.

Sif and the Warriors Three had also mentioned that when Thor went to subdue the Nine Realms, he also had to bring elite generals and troops with him. Going into battle alone was too dangerous and inappropriate.

As long as infinite clones didn’t exist, everyone needed teammates.

Even as the thoughts flashed through Luke’s mind, he continued to focus on analyzing his strength.

He had hundreds of thousands of credit points, and there was nowhere to use them for the time being. All he needed now was the ability to purchase abilities.

However, he no longer needed ordinary abilities; he needed abilities with particularly prominent effects in two areas.

The first was to put on bulk like crazy.

If he bulked up, he would only suffer minor injuries no matter how much he was beat up by someone like the God of Thunder or the Hulk, which would be perfect.

He wasn’t in a hurry.

Iron Hide Creech’s Elementary Tempering was waiting for him; Luke would be able to learn it once he met the 80 Strength prerequisite.

He had blown up Creech’s head with a revolver in less than ten seconds.

But Luke also had Elementary Self-Healing and Elementary Limb Regeneration.

One made him very strong, and the other allowed him to regenerate constantly. This was no longer a matter of pure strength.

If he was further equipped with multiple advantages, like extreme speed, flight, and technological weapons, then… his entire existence would be a cheat.

Luke, who prioritized safety, had already considered this route.

He would be able to achieve this goal in two to three years at most, so he didn’t need to think too much about it.

The second was to deal a tremendous amount of damage.

Until now, his strongest output ability was Elementary Annihilation. It had broken through even the Destroyer’s defenses.

He had developed this ability to be more flexible and readily applicable, so that it could be attached to bullets or cold weapons, or could form a protective shield around his body.

But in terms of pure destructive power, it hadn’t improved much.

Also, this ability could be considered a one-on-one ability.

If it was like in the fight against the Destroyer, Luke could only put his full strength into each attack a dozen times or so, or his defenses could only hold up to extreme attacks a few times. This wasn’t something he could keep up in battle.

Elementary Annihilation could only be used as a trump card at a critical moment, and couldn’t be used as a conventional attack.

Elementary Telekinesis was even worse in terms of lethality. It could only provide support to deal with unprotected opponents. Similarly, its output didn’t match its usage.

Rubbing his chin, Luke murmured, “How about Elementary Sound Wave?”

Elementary Sound Wave was the “lion’s roar” used by Stephanie, one of the twins in that trio with superpowers.

He had tested this ability a lot after obtaining it.

The use of sound waves was common in this day and age, but there were still issues with widespread use and low output.

Luke could use it in tandem with Sharp Nose in reconnaissance.

He could also use it within a 50-meter range to communicate “secret messages,” which was what he had used with John Wick.

He could also perform ventriloquism with it and mislead the enemy, which was how he had killed Night Wolf and White Dove.

As for something like an attack with sound waves, he currently couldn’t master this accurately, but there was no need to do so for now.

When all was said and done, he had Elementary Annihilation, this trump card.

Elementary Telekinesis and Elementary Sound Wave weren’t lethal enough, and he still needed to plumb the depths of their potential.

What he really lacked was Thor’s “magic damage,” or the sort of extreme brute force which the Hulk had.

But there was no way he could deal magic damage in this lifetime.

There was no way for him to learn this sort of elemental superpower or even to control electromagnetic charges.

No matter how he looked at it, the Hulk’s extreme brute force couldn’t be worth any less than 100 Strength in the system (With every breakthrough of 20 points in Strength, the effects were multiplied).

He wouldn’t stack up on Strength for now.

After thinking about it, he still had to find a more reliable ability which combined power and continuous output.
