As a man, keeping your word is fundamental.
So, that evening, Su Zhan took Skye to the rooftop of a building, where he treated her to a dazzling fireworks display, especially when he saw the controlled Fire form the words 'I Love You, Skye!' Skye felt this might be the happiest moment of her life.
"Darling, am I prettier or is Black Widow prettier?" Lying in Su Zhan's arms, Skye suddenly asked.
Su Zhan couldn't help but smile wryly. It seemed all women in love were the same, even Skye was no exception. He didn't answer, but instead, he pinched her chin, making her look up, and then he kissed her passionately!
It was a good ten minutes before they finally separated.
Skye looked at Su Zhan with a dazed expression, leaning hard against him, as if she wished they could merge into one!
"It's getting cold, let's go back."
Su Zhan said softly.
"Okay, but you have to carry me down," Skye said, a little playfully.
"It's my pleasure!"
Su Zhan picked up Skye and turned to go down.
Back in the car, Skye initially thought Su Zhan might do something given the romantic atmosphere, but to her surprise, Su Zhan just held her gently.
"You…don't want to do anything?" Skye asked softly.
Su Zhan smiled and said, "Of course, I want to, very much. You should know that every day I'm with you is a test of my willpower, but…I don't think this is the best place. Some things are worth commemorating, so we should create the most beautiful memories!"
"Darling, you're so good to me. I…I love you!"
Skye murmured, deeply moved. At this moment, she decided that she should be completely open with Su Zhan.
"Darling, actually, I've had a secret I haven't told you. I…I didn't mean to hide it from you, but I didn't know how to say it, because it might be a bit dangerous for you!"
"What is it?" Su Zhan asked, looking at Skye, who was suddenly revealing a secret.
"Actually, the reason I became a hacker and learned these skills was to investigate my background. I wanted to know who my parents were. And the best place to investigate would be S.H.I.E.L.D.. I joined the Tide organization and opposed S.H.I.E.L.D. partly because I felt they had no right to hide many things from the world that people had a right to know, and partly because I hoped to join S.H.I.E.L.D.," Skye slowly explained. "But…if I join S.H.I.E.L.D., you…"
"I'll join too," Su Zhan said without hesitation. "Wherever you go, I go. Besides, you don't need to worry about what S.H.I.E.L.D. will do to me. Maybe they even hope I'll join, so I can help them and they can conveniently monitor me!"
"But…"
"No buts. You don't need to think I'll be in a difficult or dangerous situation. Actually, joining S.H.I.E.L.D. isn't bad. Anyway, there's nothing much to do now, being a Super Hero isn't bad either!"
Su Zhan interrupted her, smiling. "Alright, it's settled. If there's a chance, I'll join S.H.I.E.L.D. with you."
"Thank you!"
Skye said softly.
"Silly girl, sleep!"
Gently patting Skye's shoulder, Su Zhan smiled. Not for his own purposes, but simply for Skye, Su Zhan was willing to join S.H.I.E.L.D..
Chapter 0011 Instance Quest
"System upgrade complete, instance quest initiated…"
In his sleep, Su Zhan vaguely heard a voice. He initially thought it was Skye talking to him, but then he realized it was the system in his head.
"System upgrade? When did it upgrade? Why didn't I know? And what does 'instance quest' mean?"
Su Zhan glanced at the sleeping Skye beside him and silently asked the system in his mind.
He didn't even know when the system had upgraded…
"When you Devouring Ability, these Abilities will transform into your own, but at the same time, they will generate a type of energy to power system upgrades."
"So, after I absorbed Extremis and Fire Control Ability, you upgraded. Does the energy required for the upgrade, which comes from my absorbed Abilities, weaken the power of those Abilities?"
"No, this is extra energy generated."
"That's good!" Su Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, then continued to ask, "What's the deal with instance quests?"
"An instance quest is a channel that allows you to rapidly increase your strength. You can select an instance plane, which is a completely independent plane. You can do whatever you want to increase your strength. At the same time, a quest will be issued upon entering the instance. If you complete the quest, you can receive rewards and energy for system upgrades, so that the system can unlock more functions!"
"It can do that? This is practically cheating! I was just worrying about not being able to freely use my Devouring Ability, and now there's an instance quest. How long can I stay in an instance quest? Can I bring out items or people from the instance quest? Also, next time, can I re-enter this instance, or activate other instances?" Su Zhan thought of several key questions and asked them in a rush.
"The system's current level is too low. You can only stay in the instance for twelve hours and cannot bring out any items. Instance quests reset every 30 days. You can choose to re-enter an instance plane you've already entered, or activate a new plane. However, only one instance plane can exist at a time. Note: The higher the system level, the more variations in instance quests."
"So, if the system's level is high, all those things I just mentioned might be possible? In that case, if I Devouring Ability in the instance, will it generate the energy needed for upgrades?"
"Yes!"
"Then that's fine."
Su Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and pondered his first instance plane.
This plane must have enough Ability for him to absorb and for the system to upgrade, so he could gain more benefits. However, he could only stay for 12 hours and could only enter once every 30 days, so he had to make good use of it.
Su Zhan carefully thought about the movies or TV shows he knew, choosing his first plane.
Ultimately, he decided to enter the 'Ability' plane!
Ability, also known as 'superpower heroes,' is roughly about: The protagonist, Nick's father, was genetically modified by a secret organization to become a perfect assassin, but ultimately died tragically. Filled with grief, Nick swore to avenge himself against the secret organization. Nick then infiltrated the Hong Kong underworld to prepare his revenge plan. He not only gathered a group of highly skilled partners but also collaborated with Cassie Holmes, a young woman who could foresee the future. With her help, they jointly tracked down a stolen suitcase, which could destroy the mysterious organization, thus becoming key to their revenge. By working together, they successfully outwitted the assassins and discovered the mysterious organization's latest weapon—a powerful new experimental drug. The time for the final showdown finally arrived…
This was a movie primarily about superpowers, and it left a deep impression because it contained many good Abilities. For example, the protagonist could move objects with his mind and create mental force fields.
Simply put, this was the Ability of Mind Control!
There was also the superpower to emit high-frequency sound waves, the prophetic Ability to foresee the future, memory deletion, Mind Control, and…the Ability to track through objects!
These Abilities.
There was originally a bottle of superpower potion, but he couldn't bring it out, which was a bit of a shame.
Of course, the reason Su Zhan was so impressed with this movie was also because the lead actor was the one who played Captain America, and secondly…the story mainly took place in Hong Kong, and the actress who played the villainous prophet was Li Xiaolu, whose styling in it was quite good.
The time he could stay was limited, and he didn't know what quests would be issued, so Su Zhan's plan was to Devouring Ability as many as possible, even if he didn't value many of them, because they could provide the system with the Ability to upgrade, and then…abandon this plane and choose a new one.
No choice, for the sake of becoming stronger and for the system to upgrade.
He had to Devouring Ability as much as possible!
"System, I have a few more questions. If I abandon this plane, and then upgrade later, can I choose this plane again? If so, will this plane restart or continue from where I left off? Also, if I enter an instance plane, will my body go in too?"
"You can choose a plane you've entered before, and it will continue from where you left off. Yes, your body and mind will both be transported into the instance. If you die in the instance, that is true Death!"
"Understood." The choice of instance plane was indeed very important. Su Zhan glanced at Skye and silently said to the system, "Select the 'Ability' plane. Let me in now!"
