Capítulo 118: MUP: Chapter 117. Travelling Around the World
"What? Left?!"
Chinatown, within the martial arts school.
Natasha subconsciously raised her slender eyebrows when she heard Ip Man's reply.
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s men had been hunkered down outside the martial arts school, and they didn't get any information about Master Roshi's departure.
Of course, Natasha was also aware that, with the ability Master Roshi had shown in that previous battle, there was no way for S.H.I.E.L.D. to keep him around if he wanted to leave.
Faced with Natasha's question, Ip Man's face showed a distinctly bitter smile as he replied in feigned helplessness, "That's right. Because there were no real clues of Jiu You after the suspected incident, Master Roshi got a bit impatient. He left after leaving a note, saying that he was going to travel around the world."
"Travel around the world?"
Ip Man's answer was somewhat out of Natasha's expectation. That master from Peng Lai was even more outside of her expectations. Natasha's expression changed, and she immediately asked, "Master Ip, can you tell me which country Master Roshi went to?"
"..."
After a moment's hesitation, Ip Man replied with an embarrassed look on his face, "I'm not sure exactly, but I heard Master Roshi mention Brazil once."
"Brazil?"
When Natasha heard that, she lightly frowned but immediately understood.
Besides football, Brazil was famous for its beautiful women, so the purpose of Master Roshi's trip was self-evident.
Having figured out the connection, Natasha's expression was as speechless as Ip Man's.
'Sure enough, the old man is a pervert.'
...
In the antique shop, after the news of Master Roshi's departure was revealed by Ip Man, Ryan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Travelling around the world and all that, naturally, was an excuse he came up with in order to allow Master Roshi to disappear for a while smoothly.
As for when he would return, it depended on the situation.
With the use of the [Master Roshi] card, Ryan's deck was undoubtedly reduced by one, but there was always something to be gained from the loss.
[Reputation points]: 28745
The points consumed before had been replenished, and it was close to reaching 30,000 points.
Looking at the points displayed on the data panel, Ryan didn't hesitate much in buying a treasure chest.
The appearance of the Ancient One obviously doubled his sense of vigilance, even though the other party didn't show any signs of suspecting him. However, the Sorcerer Supreme still caused Ryan to tense up a bit.
After he got the chest, he opened it.
With a set of familiar movements, the items drawn from the [Bronze Treasure Chest] were soon revealed in front of Ryan's eyes.
[Item: Stretch and Stare Pill]
[Effect: Healing]
[Introduction: An elixir used by Ji Gong in the TV series 'The Legend of Crazy Monk'. This medicine was used by men, women and children for all kinds of illnesses. This medicine will cure them instantly and will only dissolve in their mouths, not in their hands.]
[Remarks: You don't want to know the process of making this pill.]
[Remark 2: Come on, come on, I have more here. I'll rub it out for you right away …]
...
[B-level card fragments ×1]
[Effect: Assembling]
[Introduction: Unknown B-level card fragment. Collect five fragments to synthesise a brand-new card.]
...
[C-level card -- Lucky Luke]
[Skill: Lucky One, Quick Draw]
[Background: The protagonist of the cartoon "Lucky Luke" that's a combination of adventure and romance. It shows a lonely western cowboy who has wandered around the world, far from his hometown. Luke is righteous and kind, witty and brave. He always has good luck. He's an 'always helping the damsels in distress' kind of man. Along with his beloved horse, Jolly, he left a good reputation everywhere he went.]
[Remarks: I'm a poor lonesome cowboy and a long way from home ...]
This time, the results were a little better than Ryan had expected.
Especially the Stretch and Stare Pills, which were the best of all the system items Ryan had drawn so far. Although the process of making the pill was a little foul, it didn't compromise its powerful effects.
Silently withdrawing his gaze from [Stretch and Stare Pills], Ryan then turned his attention back to the newly drawn card.
'[Lucky Luke]?'
To be honest, he was rather unfamiliar with this name. However, from the background information provided by the system, he could somewhat tell that this was the protagonist of a western cowboy cartoon, and the figure should also look like a standard cowboy. Of course, what concerned him more than the appearance were the two skills that the system had specified.
The [Quick Draw] skill was plain and simple. It clearly represented [Lucky Luke]'s quick shooting speed, and it fit his image as a cowboy. But the other [Lucky One] skill was a bit ambiguous and completely confusing, as he didn't know the character well enough to know exactly how to use the [Lucky One] ability.
However, based on past experience with character cards, Ryan roughly guessed that the [Lucky One] ability should also be a type of passive skill. As for effect, the [Lucky Luke] card was only a C-rank card, so it may be useful, but it should be of limited use, and at best, it would make it easier to use in battle.
'It seems that I need to try out [Lucky Luke]'s ability sometime, to see how it works.'
With a thought in his mind, Ryan's hands didn't stop moving as he flipped to the system's fusion function and immediately placed two cards into it.
[Fusing E-level card [The Black Organization] and D-level card [Wesley Gibson] will consume 100 reputation points -- Yes/No]
That's right, after consuming [Master Roshi]'s card, Ryan was left with [E-level card -- King (5/5)], an unimpressive and useless card. So, he felt that he needed to try his luck once more.
"Yes!"
[C-Level card -- Eddie Brock (2/2)]
[Skill: Venom Symbiote]
[Background: Eddie Brock, a journalist, suffered a heavy blow in his career during his investigation into Carlton Drake, the owner of the Life Foundation, and his relationship with his fiancée Anne Weying was in jeopardy. He was accidentally controlled by an alien symbiote. After struggling against it, he finally became the unstoppable 'Venom' with powerful superpowers.]
[Remarks: Eyes, lungs, pancreas. So many snacks, so little time~]
'It seems that my luck wasn't too bad.'
Looking at the bronze card synthesised by the system, although it wasn't as shocking as the previous [Master Roshi], the fact that an E-level card and a D-level card could be fused to create a C-level card was considered an unexpected surprise.
However, looking at the [Venom Symbiote] in his hand, Ryan's mind subconsciously recalled the Spider-Man he had seen before.
After all, this was one of Spider-Man's notorious nemeses.
'Maybe, I can ...'
