Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

"I advise you to think about how to deal with those two guys first."

Before Firefly could make a move, Kaitou Kid's voice came over.

Those two guys?

Firefly turned around and looked suspiciously. There was no third person in the exhibition hall at all.

bump!

Just when he was angry that he had been deceived by Kaitou Kidd, the door of the exhibition hall was kicked open again.

Two figures, one beautiful and one dark, burst in from the door, and they were none other than Robin and Bat Girl.

Although the two of them seemed to be in good condition, they looked a lot more embarrassed and had a lot of blood stains on them, although it was basically unlikely to be their own blood.

"firefly!"

When she saw the people in the exhibition hall, Bat Girl's eyes instantly became extremely sharp.

Robin looked at Kaitou Kidd who was standing by the window with one foot on the window frame.

"You guys are so slow to come."

Kaitou Kidd turned around and looked at Robin.

"Do you think Firefly is the only one who wants to kill you? Bat Girl and I met at least forty killers on the road!"

Robin replied angrily.

"But those killers have been defeated by us."

"Really? Thank you then."

Kaitou Kidd smiled.

"I've finished my work here. That firefly is your mission."

After saying that, Kaitou Kid leaned back and fell out of the window.

Chapter 67: Great Harvest and Exchange

Watching the white figure jump out of the window and leave, Robin did not step forward to stop him.

Because there is a perverted pyromaniac in front of him who needs punishment more than Kaitou Kidd.

"Forget it if you can't kill them. There are more than forty people who can't even hold these two brats back. They are useless to the extreme. The people of the Penguin Gang are really getting better and better!"

Firefly thought angrily as she looked at Batgirl and Robin.

It was so close, so close, that Kaitou Kidd was going to die in his hands!

Why can't the Penguin's gang be more angry? Delay for a few more minutes?

Do we have to let in the troublesome people at such a critical moment?

Forget it, the matter has come to this, we can only change the goal.

With the flamethrower in hand, wouldn't it be a pity if no one was burned?

The person who caused Fireflies to be imprisoned before has arrived, just in time to take revenge.

"Originally I didn't want to do anything to you today, but now that you have ruined my good deeds, I will settle old scores with you!"

Facing Bat Girl and Robin at the same time, Firefly had no false expression on her face and said with murderous intent.

Even though he and Killer Moth were defeated by Batgirl alone, he was then escorted to the GCPD by Robin and Batman.

Firefly was not afraid of the two people in front of him. In his heart, he always believed that Killer Moth's idiot teammate was too useless and held him back before he was defeated by Bat Girl.

I was really blind to team up with Killer Moth.

If he attacks with all his strength, how could he not even be able to defeat a woman?

I don’t know where Firefly’s confidence comes from.

In other words, people who have been to Arkham Asylum have more or less unwarranted confidence.

Robin and Batgirl looked at each other and nodded to each other.

Immediately afterwards, they divided into two groups and rushed towards the fireflies in unison...

A few minutes later, Firefly collapsed to the ground, covered in bruises.

The image of the other two is not very good either.

There were scorch marks all over Robin and Batgirl's uniforms, and some of the exposed skin also had burns.

"Every time I finish dealing with this guy, my hair inevitably smells like burnt food."

The bat girl said with an unhappy expression as she smelled the scent coming from her beloved long red hair.

"Your debut time was too short. There will be many similar or even more serious situations in the future."

Robin shrugged. He had more tatters on his body than Batgirl, but he was used to it.

He pointed at the fireflies on the ground and said: "Let's move this guy back to Director Gordon first. The sleeping gas used by Kidd usually has a short-lasting effect. Calculating the time, the stunned policemen of the GCPD will almost wake up." coming."

Bat Girl had no objection, and the two of them lifted the firefly together and walked outside the exhibition hall.

-

At the same time, Dean, who was far away from the museum, had already taken off Kid's costume and put on the costume of ordinary people.

He drifted away from the crowd and used small surveillance system jammers many times to conduct counter-reconnaissance work before officially returning home.

In order to ensure that no one could follow him, Dean deliberately took a long detour before going home, and every time he arrived at a crowded place, he would use the crowd as a cover to change his disguise.

The reason why it is so troublesome is to leave as little as possible any clues and evidence that can connect Dean Thaston and Kaitou Kidd.

After returning home, Dean immediately turned on the surveillance jammer and rushed into the bedroom, destroying the dummy on the bed.

Immediately afterwards, Dean did not immediately lie on the bed and turn off the jammer, but called up the system to check the harvest of this operation.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the custom mission - stealing the 'Dragon Egg Ruby Necklace'

Mission Difficulty: Medium

Treasure value: Ordinary (This gem has been blessed by a magician. It contains a small amount of magic power, which can slow down the aging rate of the person wearing it, but it cannot extend the life of the person wearing it.)

Gorgeous grade: B

Overall evaluation: B+ (Keep up the good work, you have become a qualified Phantom Thief, but 'qualified' should not be your pursuit)

Rewards obtained: 2719 exclamation points (from the audience in the square, GCPD police, Jim Gordon, Robin, Batgirl...) + 1200 exclamation points (given after completing the mission)."

"The account balance is 997 exclamation points, and the total exclamation points are 4916 points."

When he heard the system report the number of exclamation points, Dean's eyes suddenly burst into surprise.

This mission brought him nearly 4,000 points of income. Adding the exclamation points in his balance, Dean had a huge sum of money close to 5,000 exclamation points on hand!

Now he can choose from many items in the system mall.

"However, this necklace is actually a magic item, which is beyond my expectation."

Remembering that the system rated the dragon egg ruby ​​as an ordinary quality, Dean couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

I have to say that this gem is indeed big enough to be held with one hand.

"This thing was once blessed by a certain magician. No wonder Mrs. Chandler seemed to be decades older after taking off this necklace. And this also explains why the Chandler family has been dead for so many years. He hid it and refused all requests for public exhibition. It is said that the Chandler family obtained this necklace a hundred years ago. It was unbelievable that they had met the magician at that time..."

"I just don't know if the Chandler family still has contact with the magician. They have probably lost contact. Otherwise, the Penguin would not be able to threaten Mrs. Chandler."

Dean thought to himself.

"Forget it, these big families' past events have nothing to do with me. There is only one more important thing to do now."

"Name: Dean Suston

Age: 16

Skills: Magic Mastery, Vehicle Mastery, Lockpicking Mastery, Shooting Mastery, Fighting Mastery, Quick Disguise, Voice Change without Props

Items: card gun, hook gun, triangle glider, bulletproof cloak, high-speed self-filling dummy, homemade smoke bomb, homemade flash bomb, homemade tear gas, homemade sleeping gas, small surveillance system jammer,

Talent: Resistant Skin (low level)

Account balance: 4916 exclamation points”

Dean called up his personal panel and clicked to enter the system mall.

At this time, without much hesitation, he directly selected a suitable price range and clicked on one of the items.

He had booked this exchange a long time ago, but it was just that he didn't have enough exclamation value before, so he kept it until now.

"Intermediate talent - sensitive reaction: greatly improve the human body's reaction ability in a short period of time. The longer it lasts, the greater the physical strength consumed. The degree of improvement depends on the physical condition at the time. The extreme state can barely keep up with the speed of sound. Actions."

Chapter 68: The Death of Lark and Graytard

At first glance, the talent of sensitive reaction seems to be very strong. The human body's reaction ability close to the speed of sound is simply abnormal. In this world, with this level of reaction ability, dodging bullets is basically like playing.

But its flaws are equally big, or even bigger, because there is a description in its introduction that "the longer it lasts, the more energy it consumes."

Just think about it and you will know that if a person can temporarily obtain a reaction speed that far exceeds the limit of the human body, the energy required is absolutely huge beyond imagination. I am afraid that even if a person is squeezed dry, he may not be able to last two or three seconds.

You know, the gap between reaction speed and action speed is huge.

If they are both at the sonic level, the former only allows a person to react to the outside world in time, but it does not mean that he can really make sonic actions.

The latter is actually able to move at the speed of sound.

Looking at it this way, the talent of sensitive reaction seems to be of little use.

Looking at its price of 2,000 yuan, I am afraid it will be labeled as not cost-effective.

After all, the price of two thousand exclamation points was out of reach for Dean before today.

Even now, this talent would cost him nearly half of his savings, so it was not cheap at all.

Even so, after a series of thoughts, Dean still resolutely redeemed this talent.

There is no other reason. The gift of sensitive reactions is currently the only way that Dean can be equal to or close to superheroes and super villains in the future.

Dean knows very well that now is a world full of superpowers. News of the discovery of new superpowers comes out almost every day from all over the world, even though most of them are not powerful.

Even in Gotham City, which has the fewest superpowers, there are still existences like Killer Croc, Solomon Grundy, Poison Ivy, Man-Bat...

What's more, Dean can't stay in Gotham forever. If he can't react to those powerful beings in the future, what's the difference between him and himself throwing himself into a trap?

There is no need for superpowers. Take this incident as an example. If Firefly was not ambushing there alone and more than forty killers under Penguin were also there, Dean would not have been able to react to the forty gunfire. When the time comes, I won’t be able to hide even if I want to.

This group of people is not as restrained by Gordon as the GCPD. They dare to kill people on the street even in wealthy areas. Dean's usual tactics of blending in with the crowd are of no use to them.

Fortunately, Firefly didn't know which of the tendons was wrong, so she had to listen to the wailing of Kaitou Kidd under the burning fire alone, and the Penguin's men were not allowed to get in the way.

Otherwise, it would never be so easy for Dean to escape.

Some people may think that Batman is also an incompetent person, can't he still kill gods and demons in seconds?

Regarding this, Dean hasn't read many comics and is not sure whether Batman is really that invincible.

If you just look at it purely from the perspective of his local people, Batman is very powerful, but not invincible, not even in Gotham.

Moreover, among the many public operations of the Justice League, Batman has never been the main combatant in one of them. He is more like a commander or counselor in the League.

To put it another way, even if Batman could really react to the movements of those super-fast people, or even challenge the Justice League by himself, that would still be his protagonist's aura and plot needs.

In this regard, Dean still knows how much he weighs. His current reaction speed of 0.15 seconds is actually quite fast. There are few normal humans in the world who can match his.

Even so, Dean still had to concentrate to have a chance to dodge a pistol bullet, and only one.

Dean knew that he was not the protagonist and did not have any halo around him. If he did not strengthen his reaction ability, he might be killed in front of someone without even knowing when he made a move.

In fact, there are far better redemption items in the system mall than the 'Sensitive Reaction' talent, but items that can achieve similar effects are either too expensive or not as practical as this talent.

Dean doesn't have to trade half his life for those few seconds of reaction ability that are close to the speed of sound, as long as he can react a little faster than others.

This also allows Dean to perform far more advanced magic skills than before.

To sum up, Dean believes that "sensitive response" is the most suitable exchange item for him at this stage.

After completing the exchange, Dean was ready to have a good sleep.

He lay on the bed, maintaining the same position as the previous dummy.
