Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 1467: Unexpected Chitauri “Skill Book”

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The system’s extra stats could help Luke break through this limit.

But seeing how his next level-up required 5 million experience points, he would reach a bottleneck sooner or later.

There would come a day when his experience points would only increase by a fraction even after half a year of training.

Luke wasn’t too surprised.

He had several plans for the future. His basic stats didn’t necessarily have to go over 100 or even 200 in order for him to get stronger.

There would always be limits to what the human body could do.

The system’s various functions also indicated that there was more than one way to become stronger.

The system clearly wasn’t encouraging Luke to amass stats in order to become a god.

From this point of view, the system didn’t seem like a cheat, but more like an actual online game — even the experience required for leveling up in the later stage was the same.

Luke couldn’t help but complain.

Unfortunately, that was all he could do.

He had given up on training as a way to increase his basic stats, then this suddenly happened.

He might’ve sung and danced for joy, if it wasn’t for his two years of hard work and training.

Every increase in basic stats counted.

It would be great if this increase wasn’t accompanied by a concurrent increase in the difficulty of leveling up.

Moreover, with the Kunlun Chi Refining Technique, he could repeat the process when his basic stats broke 60 and then 80.

After doing the math, being able to obtain a few more stat points this way was equivalent to reducing the difficulty by one level.

Now that he was over level 20, these basic stats were nothing.

By the time he reached level 30, the experience required to level up would be astronomical, and the time required would be calculated in years.

It was definitely worth it to develop a stronger physique a few years beforehand.

But the surprises weren’t over yet.

The next afternoon, when the 24-hour period for the transformation was over, his Dexterity on the panel had become 32 (Star of Justice +10).

Luke, who had been cultivating the Kunlun Chi Refining Technique, obtained an additional two stat points.

Furthermore, he had only spent 400 credit points all up at most, which was absolutely worth it.

Right now, however, he didn’t know about this follow-up surprise. He simply lay in bed and closed his eyes to think.

His basic stats had finally reached 40, and he had even obtained additional stats for Dexterity. That was great.

But the other gains from this battle weren’t bad either.

He had killed a bunch of Chitauri and acquired some useful abilities.

He had never considered the possibility of them dropping any “skill books.”

He couldn’t acquire abilities from animals through the system, and Luke subconsciously hadn’t treated the Chitauri as human.

After killing a bunch of Chitauri, a large number of their abilities appeared on his list.

There were only a hundred types of abilities in total, some of which could be learned, most not.

Those that couldn’t be learned clearly relied on the Chitauri’s special physiological structure. However, the ones that could be partially learned were a little strange. Apart from Mental Strength 20, the prerequisite for some were names of technological equipment in the Chitauri language.

It was only after Luke bought all the available abilities and examined them that he found the names of the technological equipment among the abilities of a Chitauri maintenance engineer.

These were the equipment necessary for the remote control system in the Chitauri soldiers. The abilities that could be partially learned were actually ways to remotely control the mechanical bodies.

It was this technology which allowed the Chitauri to dominate part of the cosmos.

After all, as long as the real beings themselves didn’t die, no matter how many remote-controlled machines were scrapped, it was only a small issue of equipment loss — for the Chitauri who could travel through the stars, the raw materials needed for their soldiers were as cheap as steel on Earth.

This… was interesting. Looking at this technology, Luke made plans.

It was a pity that among the dead Chitauri, this maintenance engineer was the most skilled. However, maintenance engineers were unlikely to know the ins and outs of the entire manufacturing process.

Luke had only obtained a very small part of the Chitauri technology, but it was enough.

Maintenance engineers were best at putting things back together, and there was currently a whole bunch of leftover Chitauri equipment in New York.

Luke still had a bunch of basically intact Chitauri equipment in his inventory, which was more than enough for use in personal research and modifications for the team.

If there was anything truly missing, Tony might be able to fill in the gaps in the future.

This guy had already reached agreements with SHIELD, the Department of Defense, the military, and the authorities in New York, and was forming a disaster control division to collect and deal with these Chitauri equipment.

Like Luke, Tony would definitely choose to absorb what Chitauri technology was suitable toward improving his armor and other technology.

It would be strange if this tycoon didn’t keep some components for himself.

The remaining Chitauri abilities which Luke obtained included basic abilities such as Fleet Command, Battle Planning, and Battleship Piloting.

Luke couldn’t use these abilities. After all, he didn’t have a fleet or a battleship.

Without these things, he couldn’t use the Chitauri’s battle strategies. It would be like asking the American Air Force to command a battle utilizing ancient cold weapons.

However, the military knowledge inherent in the Chitauri’s abilities was very important. For the first time, Luke had a rough understanding of interstellar warfare.

At the same time, he was once again certain that the Chitauri that had come to Earth weren’t the main force.

This bunch was like two regular warships that happened to be carrying some gear for landing.

They had estimated that this was enough to suppress the armed forces of the entire Earth.

It wasn’t because the Chitauri were kind or careless.

This implied that this wasn’t anything like their regular combat missions.

Apart from the two motherships, which could be considered the main force, the Chitauri robots and fliers were on par with AKs and pickups on Earth.

For Luke, who was an expert at “stealing chicken,” this smacked strongly of the same thing.

So, the Chitauri had actually come here to steal chicken.

According to Thor’s information, the deal between the Chitauri and Loki was that Earth would belong to Loki, and the Chitauri would take the Tesseract.

The Chitauri weren’t interested in taking over Earth; they just wanted to filch the “chicken” – the Tesseract.

But Thor had said that the power of the Tesseract was too great, and Asgard had always been the one to safeguard and deal with things of that level.

At that point, everything became clear.

In name, Asgard had always been the protector of Midgard, also known as Earth.

Once the Chitauri mobilized a large force to enter Earth, Asgard could use the Bifrost to easily send troops over in a short period of time.

Thor and his private troops alone would have been able to kill all the Chitauri who had invaded this time.

And that was just his own troops.

If he brought over Asgard’s army proper, the Chitauri’s main fleet would also be destroyed.
