Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 280 Slap in the Face, Dodging the Cloak

Let's turn our attention back to the third 'core component'.

If the first two items left Luca somewhat disappointed, or rather, lacking something...

Finally, the gaudy cloak on the table left Luca with mixed feelings the moment he received it.

Wakanda's 'Energy Shield Cloak'.

Previously, it was a product that Luca had always disliked and ridiculed, regarding it as a disgrace to high-tech weaponry.

The single-sided shield is cumbersome to use, inconvenient to carry, extremely contrary to weapon ergonomics, and its protective ability is even worse than that of the materials used.

In Luca's eyes, the item had absolutely no redeeming qualities.

However, looking at the ordinary glowing cloak on the table, Luca sighed softly and reached out to touch it again.

The next instant, the pale blue gold finger panel reappeared.

[Dodge Cloak]

【Doraemon World 2/5】

Manufacturer: 22nd Century Technology Company

[Core Component: Energy Shield Cloak]

[Synthetic Consumables: 1 bucket of red pigment, 1 bucket of reflective coating]

[Item Description: A children's toy manufactured by a 22nd-century technology company. Modeled after a bullfighter's red cape, this item allows you to dodge any frontal attack simply by waving the cape while facing the target.]

[Friendly reminder: Yes, it's any~]

A brief introduction, a brief tip.

Even the necessary synthetic materials were extremely rudimentary.

No matter how many times he watches it, Luca still feels a bit unreal.

'The dodge cloak'

This is the second time Luca has encountered a gadget from the Doraemon world. Although he never managed to get his hands on the [3D Puzzle Hammer] from last time, he still vividly remembers its effects and has been eyeing it ever since.

It's hard to say which is stronger or weaker in comparison to this [Dodge Cloak], but in terms of fame, it is definitely many times greater than the [3D Puzzle Hammer].

The gadgets in the Doraemon world are notoriously unreasonable, and the [Dodge Cloak] is among the most unreasonable of all.

As stated on the cheat code panel, any form of attack can be dodged by simply waving the cloak.

However, the 'dodge' in the [Dodge Cloak] does not mean that the holder can avoid enemy attacks.

Instead, the user only needs to stand firmly in place, and any attack will have to 'go around' the small red cape.

Yes! Any!
In the original Doraemon story, as long as this red cape is waved, any 'attack', from small things like Gian charging head-on and raindrops falling from the sky, to large things like tank crashes and gunfire, will 'automatically' dodge.

Even energy attacks like laser beams and magical light waves would be distorted, deformed, and deflected when faced with this cloak.

Even more outrageous is that even a super-large spaceship comparable in size to a planet will change course and direction when it collides head-on with the [Dodge Cloak].
This item retains most of the shortcomings that Luca criticized in the 'Wakanda Energy Shield Cloak'.

Single-sided shield, cumbersome to use, and inconvenient to carry.
However, from a purely defensive standpoint, the [Dodge Cloak] is practically invincible at the rule level.

It just goes to show how quickly things can turn out that way.

It's not that Wakanda's energy cloaks are bad; it's just that they haven't perfected a certain aspect of them.

Besides, the [Dodge Cloak] also has another name – Reflection Cloak.

In other words, for ranged attacks like rays and projectiles, as long as you pay attention to the angle and master the technique, the [Dodge Cloak] can completely deflect attacks that would otherwise 'go around' back and hit the enemy.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it's a perfect combination of offense and defense. In short, from now on, this cloak might just become our biggest trump card.

'As expected, the most outrageous things are those with hilarious props!'

After carefully storing away the three 'core components' that had not yet been synthesized, Luca began to look forward to testing and researching the synthesized items after returning home.

However, Luca returned home with a satisfying haul.

But in Wakanda after his departure, it is clear that things are not going to be peaceful.

Thanks to Luca's 'warning' before the battle began, the vast majority of ordinary people in Wakanda were able to evacuate in advance, and there were no casualties.

Although many people are still at a loss, they are doing their best to participate in the reconstruction and recovery work.

The fact that ordinary people at the grassroots level are not in chaos does not mean that those at the top can remain calm.

Although the arrival of the Black Panther God's 'true form' had previously brought a sense of unity to Wakanda, a nation that values ​​tradition, it had somewhat offset the despair that Luca had instilled in them.

But since the army suffered heavy casualties and a large amount of vibranium and technical data were 'forcibly seized,' someone has to take responsibility for it.

Shortly after Luca and his party left, tensions suddenly rose within the Wakanda palace.

The Wakanda leadership, who should have begun to calm down, appease the public, and lick their wounds, suddenly turned against each other.

"Ramanda! You have falsely proclaimed divine pronouncements! You have betrayed Wakanda's national interests!"

"We are now arresting you for treason! Please do not resist!"

At this moment, the four tribal elders who had remained silent while Luca led the team to collect the spoils of war were at the scene.

They were each leading their men in a standoff with Dora's guards, who were armed with spears.

Yes, it's still the same four elders.

The Jabari tribe elders, who were already outside the Wakanda power structure, died on the battlefield, but the elders of the border tribes survived.

Although his own warriors suffered heavy casualties, he was the first to choose to contact the other tribes, and at this moment he seemed to have become the representative of these four tribes.

The reason they dared to demand the arrest of Ramanda in such a rebellious manner was not because they were unafraid of the leopard god who had only recently appeared.

However, as mentioned before, the faith in Wakanda is rather chaotic.

If they don't take action now to suppress the authority of the royal family, there may be no room for other totem gods to survive in Wakanda after this battle.

Moreover, Wakanda has never claimed that only the Golden Tribe, to which the royal family resides, can be kings.

"Ramanda, surrender. The Golden Tribe no longer has anyone suitable to inherit the throne. Once a new king is chosen, we will give you a fair judgment."

Perhaps out of compassion, or perhaps out of consideration for past relationships, the elders of the River Tribe stepped forward and earnestly offered their advice.

However, she had barely finished speaking when the palace gates were violently smashed open with a loud bang.

Immediately afterwards, a dark figure rushed into the hall at a speed far exceeding that of a normal human.

Before the others could react, the dark figure raised his hand and fired four shots without mercy, instantly killing the four tribal elders on the spot.

Both sides in the standoff were in a state of panic.

When the dark figure finally stopped, it removed its mask to reveal its true face.

Princess Su Rui, whose face still held a touch of youth but whose eyes were filled with hatred and anger, spoke through gritted teeth, enunciating each word clearly.

"Who says the Golden Tribe has no one fit to inherit the throne?!"
