Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 60 New props

"Come again!"

Luca waved to Dunshan with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

However, Dunshan just thought he was just a young boy who didn't want to admit defeat.

They had no choice but to launch another attack, albeit somewhat reluctantly.

"Master, be careful!"

As he spoke, Dunshan threw a punch.

The rapidly thrusting fist, along with the sleeve, rubbed against the air at high speed, creating a whistling sound.

However, although the punch seemed merciless, Dunshan's superb fighting skills were actually enough to ensure that the punch would not harm Luca in the slightest.

But who would have thought that this powerful punch wouldn't even reach Luca before it landed.

It was caught by his raised hand in an instant.

"Bang~"

There was a muffled sound.

Luca took a half step back, but his right mechanical arm remained completely still.

Instead, he grabbed Dunshan's fist, squeezing it so hard that even this seasoned warrior couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

Yes, another feature of [Sweet Captive] is that this mechanical arm has an extremely high output.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this mechanical arm, in the original Devil May Cry world, seems to exist only for comedic effect, aside from its somewhat lackluster healing capabilities.

But that depends on who you're comparing it to.

The original arm belonged to Nero, who was a demon hunter who specialized in hunting demons.

Even though the mechanical arm he used wasn't designed for combat, its power output and sturdiness were more than capable of handling the frequent battles between him and the demons.

However, it may also be because Nero himself had physical abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people.

Surprisingly, in the cheat code assessment, [Sweet Captive] did not have any rule-based abilities similar to [Strength-Enhancing Shoes] that would protect the wearer from harm.

For Luca right now, his physical condition has become a hindrance to the mechanical arm.

Besides the simple 'clenching hands' and 'punching'.

In other similar movements that require the coordinated use of the shoulders and even the body, overuse of the robotic arm could potentially lead to strains in his fragile little frame.

That's why he now sets aside time every day to spar with Dunshan and the other fighting experts.

It was actually to adapt to my somewhat oversized arms.

If it weren't for the fact that the description of [Sweet Captive] already included the characteristic of 'flexible manipulation', Luca would have even doubted whether he could truly master the use of this arm.

However, a master of combat like Dunshan would not be so easily subdued.

Seeing that he couldn't break free from the grip, he immediately raised his foot and kicked Luca sideways.

Left with no other option, Luca could only activate the mechanical arm and push hard, widening the distance between himself and Dunshan once again.

At the same time, he raised his arm and aimed at a large tree next to him.

Followed by.

With a 'whoosh' sound.

A grappling hook shot out rapidly from the elbow of Luca's white right arm.

Before Dunshan could charge back to Luca,

The hook rope nailed to the tree trunk immediately began to tighten rapidly, and at Luca's elbow, the miniature motor sizzled and emitted white smoke.

He was pulled by this enormous force and flew towards a nearby tree.

only.
"Boom~"

There was a muffled sound.

Luca, who was flying at high speed, crashed head-on into the trunk of a large tree, immediately grimacing and clutching his head as he gasped for breath.

"Ouch, stop, stop, stop! My arm's going to break!"

Dunshan, who was about to continue his attack, immediately stopped and looked at Luca with a helpless smile. "Young Master, you'd better not add these strange functions to your prosthetics. The dangerous movements you just made could easily have caused you to get injured."

However, before Dunshan could finish speaking, Luca's mechanical prosthetic limb began to tremble and glow green again.

The slight muscle strain caused by the rapid movement of the grappling hook was completely healed by this gentle energy in the blink of an eye.

Yes, the last feature of [Sweet Captive] is the grappling hook ability that comes with all of Nero's mechanical arms.

This grappling hook skill can not only pull enemies or objects closer to oneself for attack.

It also allows Luca to move quickly between buildings using a grappling hook.

However, just like Luca couldn't withstand the force exerted by his own arm.

This enormous pulling force can easily lead to muscle strain.

At present, all Luca can do is use a grappling hook to pull relatively light objects directly to him.

However, Luca believes that as his physical abilities gradually improve and he becomes more proficient in using [Sweet Captive], he should eventually be able to achieve something similar to Spider-Man, moving back and forth between buildings.

'perhaps.'

'Hmm, maybe one day I'll be able to synthesize a body-enhancing item.'

Luca thought to himself as he rubbed his arm, which was now completely healed.

Just as Dunshan was about to try to persuade Luca again that there was no need to give his mechanical prosthetics so many dangerous functions,

From the front gate of the yard, came the somewhat excited shouts of Wrench.

"Young Master Luca, Young Master Luca! Everything you asked for has arrived!"

Seeing the wrench carrying a large box and running towards him excitedly, Luca first waved to Dunshan, signaling to stop the combat practice, before quickly walking over to him.

"Young Master Luca, this is..."

Before the chatterbox could even begin to explain, Luca quickly interrupted and asked.

"Has the micron-level neurostimulation unit arrived?"

Upon hearing this, Wrench shook his head decisively.

"No, it's the materials you mentioned yesterday, young master!"

"So fast?"

Upon hearing this, Luca's face lit up with joy, and he immediately took the box from the wrench.

Without waiting for the wrench to continue questioning, he quickly jogged towards the villa's basement.

"Hey, young master, wait for me! Let me see what you've got this time!"

However, before Wrench could even take a step, Dunshan grabbed Fate by the neck from behind, leaving him only able to watch helplessly as Luca walked down the stairs.

Ignoring the somewhat resentful look in the wrench's eyes.

After quickly arriving at the underground laboratory.

The first thing Luca saw was a fully automated turret that was 'peeking around and looking around'.

[H-28Q Advanced Gun Turret]
In fact, this thing was much simpler than Luca had imagined.

Aside from its completely illogical enemy detection mechanism that judges friend or foe solely based on Luca's subjective assumptions.

And its own black box-like energy core caused all attacks to be transformed into magical lasers.

In other aspects, including its folding form and sensing Luca's proximity, the turret itself doesn't seem to have much of a special feature.

After all, although it is said to be foldable and retractable, in reality, the turret after being folded up is still a metal box about the size of a suitcase.

So, in reality, Luca only takes it with him when he goes out by car; otherwise, he just leaves it in the villa.

In this way, even after you go to sleep at night, the continuously operating turrets will still attack invading enemies.

but.

Today, however, Luca's attention was not on the fortress.

Setting the box aside for the moment, Luca, his face beaming with excitement, strode over to an orange sphere that was emitting a faint glow.
