Chapter 1291: I Can Afford It and Even Do a Magic Trick
This also meant that most technological probes would be disrupted or rendered completely ineffective by the white smoke.
Since it was Batman’s special prop, the smoke naturally spread very quickly; otherwise, it would be useless for battle.
In two seconds, thick white smoke covered an area of 20 meters in diameter before it spread more slowly.
At that moment, two people still glowed with black light, but the people outside the fog couldn’t see the situation clearly.
In the subway tunnel, hazy black smoke emerged in one corner.
Two red dots of light flickered in the black smoke as they watched everything. They were restless for a moment before they quieted down.
In the white fog, Luke put Batman’s armor into his space.
The black beam of light finally landed directly on the clone.
As if it had fallen into acid, the clone was instantly corroded by the black light.
With his extraordinary reflexes and quick thinking, Luke was able to sample the effect of the black light for one second.
This was the first time he experienced synchronized damage, and it was an extremely valuable experience.
This level of pain was hard to taste.
Luke didn’t like torturing himself.
With Elementary Self-Healing, Physical Enhancement, and Muscle Control, it was very hard for ordinary attacks to destroy his body so quickly.
Even a continuous regular attack didn’t have enough impact; it was like an ordinary person pricking their finger on a needle for hours.
Something like this wasn’t for sharpening the fighting spirit, but to train a person to resist interrogation. Luke no longer needed that.
At the same time, his clone’s resistance, recovery speed, and mental fortitude also gave him valuable battle data.
He had put away the body armor, but still had the Bat helmet.
The A.I. butler Alfred dutifully recorded everything.
It might seem complicated, but it only took a second to study and record the experience. Then, Luke put the Bat helmet in his inventory, and his clone was completely exposed to the black beam of light.
At that moment, in a building next to the subway station, Luke smiled grimly and walked to the window, dressed in the Big Dipper Armor. A thought flashed through his mind. “Star of Justice, recall.”
It wasn’t good for Batman to use superpowers. Big Dipper, on the other hand, used them to wantonly slaughter superpowered criminals.
It was a little troublesome for Batman, who now had eyes on him, but Big Dipper, the Scapegoat King, liked trouble the most.
Wasn’t it just a level 1 Star of Justice worth 100,000 credit points? I can still afford it and even do a magic trick for you! Luke sneered inwardly as he dropped down to the subway station entrance below.
Just as he jumped out a window, the recall of the Star of Justice was completed.
In the smoke in the subway station, the clone turned transparent when Luke gave the order. It instantly shrunk and condensed into a bright white dot that shot out.
The next moment, the white dot disappeared from the subway station and reappeared in front of Luke’s forehead just as he jumped out the window.
Luke realized that the white dot was the Star of Justice that had been recalled.
Without any conflict or resistance, the Star of Justice merged into him.
The main attributes that had been apportioned to the Star of Justice returned, and Luke’s attributes returned to their peak.
But that wasn’t important.
Even the witch who was still hiding in a corner of the subway station and looking at the white smoke with poisonous and pleased eyes wasn’t important.
What was important was that in the short two seconds when Luke was falling, he suddenly realized that recalling the Star of Justice wasn’t as simple as recalling his clone or getting his basic attributes back.
He cursed inwardly, and couldn’t help but feel that he had suffered a huge loss.
However, the thought didn’t last more than a fraction of a second before he thought, “Thankfully, I used ‘recall’ today.”
As soon as he had this thought, Luke completely tossed it to the back of his mind. Instead, he had the armor’s A.I. program, Polaris, record data on his body and the upcoming fight.
Two seconds later, just as he was about to smash into the subway station, he had an idea: Star of Justice! Activate.
100,000 credit points instantly disappeared, and his basic attributes dropped again.
Then, telekinesis enveloped his falling body, and the eye-catching black-and-white Big Dipper Armor appeared. A BGM even louder than a certain tycoon’s voice rang out.
Amidst the melodious and heavy bells, a clear male voice began to chant once more, “The supreme edict, supreme lonely souls, all ghosts and charms, four lives with grace…”
The usually colorless and intangible telekinesis now glowed with a bright white light.
It easily propped up the Big Dipper Armor, and Luke, who had been falling straight down, made a sharp 90-degree turn. He didn’t slow down at all as he charged into the subway station and headed straight for the witch hiding in the subway tunnel.
As he passed through the white smoke released by the Batman suit, it instantly disappeared.
The black beam of light that had been entangled with Tony disappeared without a trace.
The red warning light for damage that had been flashing wildly inside Tony’s armor suddenly slowed down. Although 72% damage was very high, the suit was still able to escape and survive.
Tony calmed down and subconsciously looked at Big Dipper, who was moving at a high speed.
Tony had experienced a lot of things now, and after training, his combat awareness had improved significantly.
Without even thinking, he knew that the white light had helped him.
He couldn’t help but wonder who this newcomer was.
The witch hiding in one corner of the subway tunnel had already sensed that something was wrong. She quickly retreated and disappeared into the tunnel.
She had been casting spells on Katya for the last half-month, slowly accumulating a certain amount of power in the woman’s body.
Only then was Katya’s body able to withstand a sudden possession, and the witch was able to unleash that earlier attack.
But that was already the strongest attack she could use during a temporary possession, and she could only do it once.
The witch at the scene was just a mass of black smoke with consciousness. Not only had she lost a lot of energy, she lacked a medium for possession. She didn’t have any combat ability at all.
She could just about deal with an ordinary person, but this intruder clearly wasn’t ordinary.
Listening to the melodious bells and the man’s voice, she felt a sense of danger and chose to flee without hesitation.
By the time the black smoke dissipated, her temporary consciousness had already begun to return to another woman’s body — this was her true vessel of possession.
Bright white light suddenly flashed in the black eye sockets of the skull on Big Dipper’s helmet, as if piercing through some previously impenetrable layer of understanding.
With a thought, most of the white light on his body shot toward the subway tunnel like an arrow.
