Chapter 110: Shengzhu Breaks the Seal! All Talismans Collected!
The American Government was in chaos; many high-ranking officials and congressmen were HYDRA agents! The President of the United States nearly fainted upon hearing that eighty percent of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s members were HYDRA. This was simply too outrageous, as S.H.I.E.L.D.'s predecessor was created to combat HYDRA.
However, HYDRA did not comprise all government officials. With a command from the President, the Navy SEALs and other special forces began apprehending HYDRA agents. Everyone on the list was to be arrested! The military even entered New York City directly.
Many officials were arrested, some committing suicide by poison before interrogation, while others had already fled. The American Government was undergoing a complete reshuffle, and because there were too many HYDRA agents within S.H.I.E.L.D., the government decided to deal with it last.
General Ross even directly requested to lead a team himself, as he was eager to retrieve Hulk from S.H.I.E.L.D.
...
While they were busy apprehending and clearing out HYDRA, Jiang Bai received a message from Valmont.
Valmont: [The remaining five Talismans have all been found. Let's trade!]
Jiang Bai: [Alright, what do you want?]
Valmont: [I want something to enhance my strength! Shengzhu broke free from his stone statue using his baby tooth. I need more powerful strength to deal with Shengzhu!]
Jiang Bai: [Alright, but it will take some time. The Talismans must be traded to me first.]
Valmont: [This... Okay! Fine!]
Through his communication with Valmont, Jiang Bai learned that Shengzhu had broken free from his stone statue form using his baby tooth. This surprised Jiang Bai a little; perhaps the timeline of that World had been disrupted, which allowed Shengzhu to find his baby tooth so quickly.
Clearly, Shengzhu, having recovered his body, would definitely seek trouble with Valmont, who held all of his Talismans, and some Talismans had already completely lost contact! It would be strange if Shengzhu didn't seek revenge. However, Jiang Bai currently had nothing he could trade with Valmont.
Mainly, Jiang Bai temporarily lacked the items Valmont desired to enhance his strength, as most of his own power came from the Talismans. But he also wanted to acquire these Talismans, so Jiang Bai directly asked Valmont to trade them to him first.
Valmont was indeed very conflicted and hesitant, but facing the powerful Shengzhu, he had no choice but to trust Jiang Bai! He ultimately traded the five Talismans to Jiang Bai. The moment Valmont agreed to the trade, the five Talismans appeared in Jiang Bai's System Space.
Rat Talisman: Life Power, able to grant life to inanimate objects. It can give static objects the ability to move. Dragon Talisman: Explosive Power, able to make the Talisman itself shoot out explosive flames. It is Shengzhu's innate Talisman and can give the holder powerful explosive abilities.
Snake Talisman: Invisibility Power, able to make the holder invisible, also effective on objects, can bring many people, and can give the holder the ability to be invisible. Monkey Talisman: Transformation Power, able to make the holder transform any object into any animal, and can give the holder the ability to transform anyone into an animal's appearance. (Jade once transformed a tree trunk into a fish.)
Dog Talisman: Immortality Power, able to make the holder eternally young and immortal. It can give the holder the divine power to preserve youth and be immortal.
Now all twelve Talismans were in his hands. The Dog Talisman combined with the Horse Talisman meant true immortality! The Dog Talisman ensured he wouldn't die, and the Horse Talisman healed his injuries. Now, as long as Jiang Bai didn't lose the Talismans, even without Tom and Jerry, he would be very difficult to kill.
He took out the Dragon Talisman from the System Space. Combined with his original Fire control ability, a ball of Fire instantly appeared in his palm! Now he no longer had to use the flame from a lighter for Fire control! After putting away all the Talismans, Jiang Bai stood up and went to the third floor.
"Tom, I want to integrate the abilities from these Talismans into my body. Can you do it?" Arriving in Tom and Jerry's room on the third floor, he gently stroked Tom's little head and slowly spoke. Hearing Jiang Bai's words, Tom picked up one of the Talismans in Jiang Bai's hand, looked at it, and then nodded to Jiang Bai.
"Good, if possible, strengthen these abilities a bit!"
After confirming that Tom could integrate the power of the Talismans into his body, Jiang Bai was very pleasantly surprised. He then handed all the Talismans to Tom and then made a suggestion without much hope. A hint of distress flashed in Tom's eyes, but he quickly thought of something else.
He took all the Talismans to the warehouse behind the Villa, took out his one-hundred-ton hammer, smashed all the Talismans to smithereens, and then put them into a blender! He mixed in a bottle of soda, and then the soda emitted a golden glow.
Remembering Jiang Bai's last words, Tom pulled something out from behind him and threw it into the soda. The glow emitted by the soda became even brighter! Then Tom took the soda and ran back into the Villa, slipping directly into Jiang Bai's bedroom and handing the golden-glowing soda to Jiang Bai.
"It's ready so fast! You're amazing!"
Jiang Bai was slightly stunned to see Tom handing him a bottle of golden-glowing soda. After praising Tom, he drank it all in one gulp, then felt a surge of powerful energy within his body, and he also gained twelve new abilities!
However, Cyclops and Pig Talisman's abilities merged, Fire control ability and Dragon Talisman's ability merged, self-healing ability and Horse Talisman merged, Mind Reading and Sheep Talisman merged, telekinetic control and Chicken Talisman merged; all merged abilities received a powerful enhancement.
Even when merged, the power of the Talismans could still be used individually. In Jiang Bai's perception, it seemed that the power of the Talismans had been strengthened. He looked at Tom, who was standing in front of him, with a puzzled expression. Tom seemed to know what Jiang Bai wanted to ask and nodded with a smile!
"Tom, can you create something that can increase the energy within my body?"
Feeling that he didn't have much energy in his body, Jiang Bai asked Tom. This energy wouldn't allow Jiang Bai to continuously use all his abilities in battle! But he also didn't know how to increase the energy in his body; this energy had appeared when he acquired the eight abilities.
Hearing Jiang Bai's question, Tom lowered his head in thought. After a moment, he took out a box with rows of items from behind him. In front of Jiang Bai, he pulled out a laboratory table from behind and began experimenting! He quickly made ten bottles of red potion and handed them to Jiang Bai.
Then, he climbed up to the third floor using the wooden pillar in Jiang Bai's room and continued watching TV with Jerry. Jiang Bai picked up a bottle of potion and drank it, discovering that the energy in his body had increased tenfold! He could now use all his abilities to fight for a month!
Jiang Bai then drank seven more bottles, and the energy in his body reached an extremely terrifying level.
