Chapter 1667: New Records, and the Second 60 Threshold

The truth was that Luke wasn’t absolutely insistent about getting revenge on Amanda.

After all, there were too many bad guys in the world who had it out for Batman.

Unless Amanda came forward herself, he didn’t have time to target her.

Besides, the Joint Advanced Research Unit was also known as ARGUS, and was a secret service organization under the American organization.

It was very similar to SHIELD in terms of function, but it had nothing to do with the World Security Council.

It was somewhere in between SHIELD and Sentinel Services.

It wasn’t as “white” as SHIELD or as “black” as Sentinel Services; provoking this organization would definitely cause a lot of trouble.

But Amanda was too ambitious, and the Enchantress’s heart which she had held onto all this time was a big problem.

The Enchantress had been possessing Dr. June’s body all this time.

For Luke to imprison the Enchantress meant that he had imprisoned Dr. June.

Dr. June was neutral in the system and completely innocent.

Luke couldn’t kill the Enchantress until he got her heart, so he naturally couldn’t let Dr. June go.

So, Luke could only make Amanda go missing.

Flegg had been crushed by Dr. June’s disappearance, and had been on leave for the last few months to see a psychiatrist.

It was also the reason why Luke hadn’t met this acquaintance at the base, and didn’t have to worry about showing Robert’s “junior” any mercy.

Now that Amanda and ARGUS were done for, however, it was unlikely that anyone would look for Flegg to start work again for the time being.

Three days later, Dr. June woke up in a motel.

Looking at her completely unfamiliar surroundings, she was dazed for a long while before she came back to her senses.

Fragments of memory came back to her.

The clearest image was of the Enchantress being pulled out of her body by a mysterious golden energy and being engulfed before the golden color shattered and disappeared.

After being dazed for a long while, she searched herself for clues.

She was wearing an ordinary T-shirt and jeans. She took out a prepaid phone and 200 dollars from her pocket.

After thinking for a long time, she finally opened the door and walked out into the bright sunlight.

Outside the motel, there was a road not far away, and a vast blue sky and white clouds.

Cars sped past every now and then, and there was the sound of the motel owner speaking with guests – the place was full of life.

Dazed, Dr. June suddenly burst into tears and covered her face. “Thank God, I’m finally back.”

…

After asking Amanda where the Enchantress’s heart was, Luke immediately went to retrieve it.

After obtaining the heart, he first used Elementary Annihilation to create a protective layer, before he injected Telekinesis enhanced with credit points into the heart.

In Space 2, the Enchantress’s body glowed with a golden light, and she screamed.

Sure enough, the heart was one of the most important parts of the Enchantress.

Attacking the heart was equivalent to attacking her.

In the end, it took Luke 20,000 credit points to kill the Enchantress.

System notification: Kill the ancient Enchantress. Mission accomplished.

Luke: ? WTF…

He had known that the points from killing the Enchantress would be very generous.

After all, the system had already rewarded him for stopping the Enchantress back then.

Killing her was a different “account” to settle altogether.

But this first super boss worth millions still shocked him.

Two months ago, his record had been an old lady (200,000+), and then there was Pierce (500,000+). Now, there was this Enchantress (1 million+)?

Humans indeed had to have dreams.

While Luke was feeling happy, he also confirmed that he had properly disposed of the Enchantress.

The Enchantress had abilities like teleportation, mind control and black magic, but Luke already had knowledge of these.

What he could and couldn’t learn was very clear.

It wasn’t like the Enchantress’s abilities were irreplaceable.

Currently, Luke was at least 70% as good as the Enchantress at mind control.

As for teleportation, was he going to get the Enchantress to carry him everywhere? She had said herself that she would rather die than be a dog.

Black magic could be partially mimicked using technology. The rest of it was mostly insane, like using human lives to activate magic.

It was also the reason why the Enchantress was worth so many points.

The siblings regarded themselves as gods, and thought nothing of humans – killing people was like killing ants to them.

Luke had always seen himself purely as human.

So, he chose to kill the “gods” who regarded people as ants.

The Enchantress gave him the final experience points for leveling up to level 25, and bumped his total number of credits into the eight-figure range. It was worth celebrating.

At that moment, Luke stopped planning operations.

He had 7 stat points, and his Mental Strength was already 56. He was close to breaking through the 60 threshold.

That day, he took Selina and Gold Nugget to the basement of New Hope Research Institute.

After making all the preparations and telling Selina what to pay attention to later, he lay down on the wide lab bench.

The upgrade to 60 Strength last time had proven that a hospital bed one meter wide wasn’t as practical as the floor.

Thus, under him this time was a 3×3 meter metal lab bench.

Giving Selina a reassuring look, he clicked on Mental Strength and hit the 60 threshold.

When his Mental Strength reached 40, the world had looked like kaleidoscopic fragments to Luke.

As for the 60 threshold, he instantly lost consciousness. Countless thoughts were shattered and rebuilt as his Mental Strength increased exponentially.

Selina and Gold Nugget stared at Luke, who didn’t move at all, and started to worry. This was nothing like the “intense physical reaction” which he said might happen.

Osiris projected Luke’s vital signs and informed Selina, “Sir’s brain is in an extremely active state. Physical cooling measures will be employed.”

Selina nodded silently.

She wasn’t good at medicine and wasn’t here to direct Osiris’s work.

As the last backup plan, she would decide if it was necessary for Gold Nugget to combine symbiotically with Luke.

Gold Nugget could be considered… a “first aid tool”? In any case, it didn’t need to use its brain; it just needed to listen to orders.

Luke had arranged this since this involved modifications to his brain.

He couldn’t be sure if his brain would explode after leveling up.

In the complete symbiotic form with Gold Nugget, his head exploding wouldn’t be an issue, much less any other sort of brain damage.

So, it was safest to leave Selina and Gold Nugget as the final insurance.

Fortunately, the worst situation didn’t happen.

Half an hour later, Luke regained consciousness a little and started to cultivate the Kunlun Chi Refining technique, quickly reducing the pain from the increase in his stats.

At that moment, he finally gave Selina a reassuring look.

Only then did Selina and Gold Nugget relax. One of them leaned against the lab bench, and the other jumped up to lie on it. However, their eyes never left the person lying on the lab bench.
