MUP: Chapter 135. Opening a Treasure Chest

"How's the Captain doing these days?"

S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, Triskelion Building.

Nick Fury turned to Agent Hill and asked about Steve's recent situation.

"He's adapting."

Agent Hill smiled slightly but immediately pulled her expression back and replied with a serious expression.

At that, Fury gave a slight nod of understanding. After all, anyone who woke up to find that they had been asleep for 70 years would need some time to adapt, both physically and psychologically.

"What about Stark?" With that, Fury led the conversation to Tony, the Iron Man, who recently made a big splash in New York.

He never responded to the Avengers' Initiative. He even identified all the intelligence officers that S.H.I.E.L.D. had planted around him." When it comes to Tony Stark, Agent Hill couldn't help but get a headache, "Maybe, we should give up. Perhaps, Tony Stark isn't right for the Avengers."

"No, he's perfect for it."

Shaking his head, Fury obviously disagreed with Agent Hill's assessment and remained adamant about bringing Tony into the Avengers. "It's just going to take a little time."

"All right."

Fury's insistence, there was nothing Agent Hill could say. He was the Director.

"By the way, what happened to Agent Coulson? Wasn't he always the one in charge of making contact with Tony Stark? "

"I had a far more important task for him."

In response, Fury didn't reveal much more than a light-hearted remark.

  ...

[Reputation points]: 29175

In the antique shop, Ryan looked at the points displayed by the system and felt like he had a touch of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

It was so close each time.

'Can't you just give me 30,000 points?!'

Ryan was speechless for a moment, but it was clear that it wasn't going to happen.

Shaking his head, he swept the meaningless thoughts out of his mind and brought his attention back to the treasure chest exchange button.

Previously, Ryan calculated that he had already opened two [B-level card fragments] in his hands so far, and if he was lucky, he could fully gather the five fragments needed to synthesise a B-level card by the next three opening attempts.

Ryan couldn't contain his excitement at the thought that he would soon be able to obtain a B-level card.

Of course, the prerequisite for that was that a [B-level Card Fragment] was drawn every time.

In any case, there was always the shadow of a B-level card already in sight, beckoning him.

After silently reassuring himself in his heart, Ryan adjusted his breathing and used up the 10,000 reputation points he had managed to accumulate to redeem a [Bronze Treasure Chest] from the system.

'Card fragment... card fragment... card fragment... '

Looking at the shiny [Bronze Treasure Chest] in the system, Ryan subconsciously held his breath and silently chanted in his heart.

'Open treasure chest!'

With the familiar white light, the contents of the treasure chest came out.

  ...

[Item: The Tuxedo]

[Effect: Auxiliary]

[Introduction: A gadget from the movie "The Tuxedo", capable of granting its wearer special abilities, including martial arts, speed, the ability to dance, and various acrobatics, by controlling the relevant modes with a wristwatch.]

[Remarks: I didn't do it, it's the suit.]

  ...

[B-level card fragments ×1]

  ...

[C-level card -- Bentham]

[Skill: Clone-Clone Fruit, Okama Kenpo]

[Background: A character who appeared in One Piece as Baroque Works' Mr. 2, with the Clone-Clone Fruit ability, and specialises in Okama Kenpo. As a man with female traits, he's a crossdresser who looks like a ballet dancer. He values friendship, loyalty and is kind and an intelligent fighter. He uses Okama Kenpo as his main method of attack and is often proud of being an Okama.]

[Remarks: One may stray from the path of a man. One may stray from the path of a woman. But there is no straying from the path of a human!]

Without having time to look at the results of the unboxing, Ryan was delighted to see the B-level card fragment displayed in the box and decided to keep on going.

[Item: Hypnocil].

[Effect: Sleep]

[Introduction: A magical pill from the movie "Freddy vs Jason" that suppresses dreams, making it impossible for Freddy to enter them and kill people.]

[Remarks: Hear my voice and live again! Make them remember me. Make them remember what fear tastes like!]

  ...

[B-level card fragments ×1]

[Effect: Assembling]

[Introduction: Unknown B-level card fragment. Collect five fragments to synthesize a brand-new card.]

  ...

[C-level card -- T-1000]

[Skill: Liquid metal robot]

[Background: T-1000 (The Cyberdyne Systems Series 1000 Terminator), a killer robot from the future that appears in the movie "Terminator 2." It's a cold-blooded killer. Apart from the command to kill John, everything else seemed to it to be an obstacle and could be destroyed within its power.]

[Remarks: …]

'Is today my lucky day?!'

Two consecutive treasure chests gave him a B-level card fragment, so even Ryan started to wonder why. He looked down at the points in the system, which was still a little short of the amount needed to open a third treasure chest. However, not much points were needed to fuse a card. The last fused card, [Eddie Brock], had run out of the number of uses and disappeared.

[Fusing D-level card [Hak Foo] and D-level card [Phantom Thief Kid] will consume 100 reputation points -- Yes/No]

As the first D-level card Ryan had acquired, he was still very attached to [Phantom Thief Kid], but as a D-level card, [Phantom Thief Kid] was clearly unsuitable for the increasingly dangerous battle ahead. So, instead of keeping the card in his hand, he fused it to see if he could turn it into a better card.

Furthermore, even if he lost [Phantom Thief Kid], it didn't mean that Phantom Thief's role had disappeared. With the cards Ryan currently had, it was more than enough to act as a mysterious thief.

So, with a little regret in his heart, Ryan pressed 'Yes'.

[D-level card -- Senior Brother Lau (2/2)]

[Skill: Karate]

[Background: The villain in the movie "Love on Delivery", Senior Brother Lau, a Japanese karate master, is the first master in the global sports centre. He's shameless, has a bad character, is narrow-minded, insults and kills people who are not pleasing to the eye, and is also He Jinyin's number one rival in love.]

[Remarks: No, don't misunderstand, I don't mean you ... I'm saying you're all garbage.]

Ryan: "..."

'I knew it! How could I have good luck all the time?'

Seeing that he had consumed 100 points but only fused two D-level cards into a D-level card with limited use, Ryan suddenly felt like he was going to cry.
