Super Detective in the Fictional World Chapter 2019 - 100 Strength, Perfect Omen

Chapter 2019: 100 Strength, Perfect Omen

Daddy System didn’t have any emotions. How could it bother with Luke’s nonsense? It didn’t even have any intention of responding as it stayed silent.

For the next week, Luke took Selina and the dog out on a holiday.

Then, he met up with Jenny and Elena each for a couple of days, in case he got carried away with his research and forgot about them.

After that, Luke’s Level 2 clone entered closed-door research mode, but it wasn’t in New Hope.

It was too close to New York.

Tony’s surveillance in New York had also become tighter. Luke didn’t want to rouse this guy’s curiosity; it wouldn’t be good if he came poking around.

They got along? So what?

If he knew that Luke was doing research, the tyc.o.o.n would absolutely think up all sorts of tricks to try.

In this regard, Tony was like an eager little minion — he didn’t want anything in return; he just wanted to prove that he was amazing.

So, the Level 2 clone went to a brand new secret laboratory in Monongahela National Forest in West Virginia.

Luke was going to study a lot of various superpowers this time, and many of them needed to be tested in a s.p.a.cious area. It was impossible to do all of them in a small room.

The main building was a forestry station.

The interior renovations were left to Alfred, while Luke took care of the final details to complete the secret lab.

He had set up several half-finished labs like this one which absolutely couldn’t be traced back to him at all.

As long as something which couldn’t be covered up happened, he would immediately take care of his personal effects and abandon this base.

…

The days pa.s.sed peacefully, and Selina gradually focused on Luke.

The reason was simple.

When he broke past the 80 Strength threshold, it made him 1.9 meters tall in his normal state. His muscles were even more beautiful — yes, they were beautiful, not bulging.

Even with the added height, he still looked a little ‘thin.’

Naturally, Selina enjoyed the show.

But this time, Luke didn’t just have a few extra stat points, but over 100.

Since he was improving every day, it was impossible to hide it from Selina, who saw him every day.

Thus, Selina watched Luke transform and become more and more perfect with every new day.

Thankfully, Luke had already expected this, and basically stayed at home. Only Selina and the dog head knew about this.

Before his Strength reached 100, however, Selina’s ‘enjoyment’ started to s.h.i.+ft toward horror — something that was too perfect was always a little inhuman.

Sensing this, Luke decisively used a super disguise when he interacted with Selina, in order to destroy this strange sense of ‘perfection.’

He could vaguely sense the reason for this.

After his stats reached 80, his body entered a critical state.

100 Strength was very important. It was the beginning of a new level of physical fitness.

This sense of ‘perfection’ was a little similar to beauty mode, which made others ignore the flaws and only look at the strengths.

This could be considered a demonstration of ‘special effects,’ or an omen.

…

When his Strength reached 100, Luke had Selina monitor him, and the dog head served as… first aid.

The upgrade this time took much longer than before.

Looking at Luke’s body, which looked like it was coming back to life, the dog head couldn’t help but widen its eyes. A thought flashed through its mind: This guy wasn’t undergoing some sort of super symbiote transformation, was he?

It was only because it had gotten smarter that it didn’t say anything; otherwise, it would definitely be taught a lesson later.

It took Luke almost a day to level up. After that, his condition improved at a much faster rate than any other time before.

In less than an hour, he got up in high spirits and went to clean and disinfect himself.

After he came out, he returned to the lounge. Selina, who was lying on the couch, couldn’t help but be stunned. She forgot to swallow the hot cocoa that she had just brought to her mouth. It dripped from her mouth and left a large brown mark on her chest.

Amused, Luke walked over and took away the cup of hot cocoa. He then gestured at the dog head.

The dog head didn’t react to his freshly baked ‘perfect body’ — after all, it was just a dog. It was as quick as usual to bring over the tissue box.

Luke wiped the hot cocoa on Selina’s chest with a tissue before he hit her in the head with Mental Resistance.

Selina jerked, and her eyes returned to normal, but she was still a little confused. “What happened just now?”

Seeing that she was starting to lose focus again, Luke simply pushed her face aside. “It’s a side effect of my body getting stronger.”

Without thinking, Selina said casually, “That’s great.”

Luke said, “…Dream on. You can only see this once, or you’ll become stupid sooner or later.”

Selina, however, was suddenly possessed by the mind of a scientist. “Hm, I think the amount of dopamine in my brain has increased by at least 12.7%.”

“You only remember the word dopamine, right?” Luke exposed this lousy lie without hesitation. “12.7? That’s the caliber of a machine gun bullet, alright?”

Selina’s mind was more or less back to normal. She took a deep breath and slowly turned her head. “It doesn’t matter. But since you said you’ll let me see it one time, then I need to look to my heart’s content.”

Unlike when she had been caught off guard just now, she was now mentally prepared. Relying on Mental Resistance, she finally didn’t turn as stupid as before.

She observed Luke carefully, starting from his feet.

Even though he was covered in his T-s.h.i.+rt and long pants, her mouth was still a little dry.

When she looked at his face again, she couldn’t help but be stunned.

She had long known that Luke could control his muscles. She immediately frowned in dissatisfaction. “It wasn’t like that just now. Hurry up and change back to that handsome face.”

Luke raised his hand helplessly and looked at his watch. “How long?”

Selina immediately understod. “Eight hours.”

Luke said unhappily, “Do you think this is work? Half an hour at most.”

Selina said, “Seven and a half hours.”

Luke: “…35 minutes.”

After a rapid back-and-forth, it was decided: 59 minutes.

Why not an hour? Because Luke said that a certain director needed to be given one minute to wipe her drool.

Who knew if the director really needed to wipe her drool, but it was true that she was in a good mood for a whole week after that.

After 59 minutes of ‘viewing time,’ Luke simply covered himself with the nanosuit.

Using the nanosuit to tweak his appearance and body, the changes were no longer visible. It was like he said earlier — Selina was the only one to see this ‘perfect body.’

After that, Luke had even more experiments to do.

The changes brought about by 100 Strength were indeed different.

Luke felt as if his body had become another existence altogether; it felt like he could do anything with it.

But that wasn’t entirely true. If you asked him to go and blow up a s.p.a.ce battles.h.i.+p now, it would be impossible.
