Chapter 1218: Birthday Gift and Sudden Unusual Activity
Selina gloated. “Too late. Who told you to play tricks with ?”
Gold Nugget lowered its head in despair. It was over. The new wife would be ruthlessly tortured for a period of ti. It could only barely maintain its life by relying on its old second wife (tablet) and third wife (phone).
After watching the two guys hurt each other, Luke smiled and took out his gift.
The box was flat and looked like a pizza box.
Selina imdiately abandoned the lousy laptop and looked at Luke.
Luke nodded with a smile.
She quickly unwrapped it, and was stumped to see an unmarked box. “You’re playing mysterious?” She then opened the box.
When she saw what was inside, she was stunned. “Wow!” she exclaid. “You actually bought it?”
Luke shook his head. “No. To be precise, it’s custom-made for you. None of those models have ever worn this.”
Selina finally couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “Only a pervert would sell sothing worn by those models to soone else, alright? Could it be that you like that kind…”
Luke didn’t think much of it. “The diamond set would definitely have been worn before. Didn’t it sell for a sky-high price?”
Selina said, “That’s why I didn’t want it.”
Looking at her movents, Luke couldn’t help but remind her, “Hey, you’re not going to put it on right now, are you? It’s only April.”
Selina said, “We have heating.” That being said, she finally put the custom-made Victoria’s Secret product back into the box reluctantly.
What Luke had chosen was similar to a gauze dress. It was a pretty bright red which faded downward into a pink floral pattern.
It looked pretty much like a dress, except for the slightly shorter hem.
It wasn’t the most expensive model from the press conference a few days ago, but it was the one Selina had looked at the longest.
At that ti, Luke had secretly placed an order under the na of a Stark Industries board mber, and obtained it in a matter of days.
It had cost him little to no ti and effort. This was how you used money and power.
Suddenly, Little Snail warned him, “Sir, unusual activity detected.”
Both Luke and Selina turned serious. “What’s going on?”
“A supernatural being has appeared at Culver University in Virginia. These are live images and short videos just obtained from F2F,” Little Snail said as it arranged the images and videos in front of them.
Luke and Selina quickly scanned the images, and saw a green humanoid creature more than two ters tall.
Selina was surprised. “It’s so big and green. What the hell is that?”
After a brief silence, Luke said with an odd expression, “Don’t you find his face familiar?”
Selina was stunned. “Him? Is it soone we know?”
Luke said, “Not really, but we t in Los Angeles.”
Staring at the face for a mont, Selina then exclaid, “Is that Jennifer’s cousin, the PhD doctor?”
Luke nodded. “Dr. Bruce Banner, a professor at Culver University, Virginia, who specializes in gamma ray research.”
Little Snail: “Sir, the relevant information on the Internet is being blocked or erased.”
Luke asked, “You kept backups, right?”
Little Snail: “Yes.”
Luke said, “That’s good.” He sat down again and pulled the virtual screen in front of him to examine the information unhurriedly.
Selina sat down as well. “Are we not going to help? This Dr. Banner was quite good to Jennifer.”
Luke sighed. “He’s in Virginia. We won’t make it in ti.”
Besides, how many people in the world do you think are qualified to help this green fatso??he mumbled inwardly.
This guy was now a super explosive powder keg who couldn’t differentiate between friend and foe.
What could Luke do if he went? Could he let the green fatso vent his anger by beating Luke up?
In any case, the previous investigation showed that the military was involved in Dr. Banner’s experintal project. That was why the relevant departnts reacted so quickly after the incident. They blocked the news online and erased the information in less than ten minutes.
If Luke went over now, he would have to deal with the hot-tempered fatso and the military.
He wasn’t an arrogant man like Thor. He would be an idiot to jump into a pit like that.
The green fatso was basically like an unsolvable ga bug, and Dr. Banner was the key to solving the problem.
But the green fatso surrounded by the military was just a green fatso, and wouldn’t turn back into Dr. Banner.
So, Luke could only… wait.
At that mont, the Star of Justice had already left the villa and was rushing to Culver University.
That was how confident Luke was in his clone.
But sothing unexpected happened, and within reason — the green fatso completely disappeared.
While his clone was on its way to Culver University, the green fatso made one extraordinarily super-powered jump east, and ultimately jumped into the ocean.
This left the military, who had been following the green fatso, at a loss.
Whether it was the sky or the ground, most places no longer had any secrets from humans.
As long as there were fixed coordinates, satellites and planes could easily lock onto a person’s location.
But the ocean was an exception.
As an old hand, Luke had long arranged to stay by the Hudson River, which led to the ocean, while his clone lived in the seaside villa, so that they could make use of the water to hide their tracks.
The green fatso wasn’t that stupid. Or rather, he still retained part of Dr. Banner’s intelligence. At the very least, he knew that he could only escape the military by entering the ocean.
Standing on a cliff next to the ocean, Luke looked at the military helicopter in the distance. He could only shake his head and leave.
He was different from the military.
He knew very well that the military didn’t know what they were facing.
He had only co here for his own benefit, to see what profits he could gain.
If he couldn’t get anything, he would just go ho.
The green fatso would appear sooner or later, so Luke wasn’t in a hurry.
Luke didn’t rember much about the Hulk movie.
He only vaguely recalled that the military had created a monster that looked like the green fatso but was sh*tty yellow instead. In the end, it was still beaten up by the green fatso.
But he had never paid attention to who this villain was or how he got here.
He only rembered that the two monsters had fought on the streets for a while before things were wrapped up. So general whose na Luke had forgotten had taken the bla, and that was the end of it.
If this had happened in New York, he could still have rushed to the scene.
If things went wrong elsewhere, it would be like today, and he could only call it a day.
After all, this wasn’t like Doraemon, with doors that could open anywhere.
What he didn’t know was that in so Marvel movies he had never seen, there was actually a force that could open doors anywhere, and this was just an elentary skill.
But even if he knew, Luke probably wouldn’t be too excited.
After all, the system was naturally “unrelated” to magic abilities. He had been developing along the system’s trajectory, and had already lost most of his expectations when it ca to magic abilities.
