Chapter 0004: Goldfinger is different from what I imagined
For many days, Rollo and Skye stayed near Malibu Beach.
Stalking for most of the world meant staring at those places as unblinking as possible, but for Skye it was far less of a hassle and a waste of time and energy. She hacked into a camera near Malibu Beach and redirected it to her minivan to record it covertly, with a time difference of barely four minutes and a second. For the transcript of the recording, she devised an algorithm that scanned the screen and noticed the presence of the people Rollo had mentioned. As soon as she finds out, she can notify Rollo as soon as possible. Considering the speed of people or vehicles, let alone a quarter of a second, even a time difference of two or three seconds is completely negligible for more than 20 specially selected surveillance videos distributed in a mesh.
So Skye is basically the same as she used to be, most of the time spent on finding her parents' background, the biggest difference is that the monitoring side has taken away some resources, and the computer performance limitations make her less efficient than usual.
Of course, this is not the only impact on her life, after all, there is a big man. Fortunately, Rollo is also a gentleman. Normally, when Skye is in the minivan, Rollo spends time outside the car, doing all kinds of physical training that can be done under the current conditions, such as during the day, he will swim in Malibu Beach, which is not far away, for several hours at a time, or run back and forth along the beach line, and several times will disappear in one run. As for the night, his 'fitness program' has become, push-ups, squats, handstands, and finding a bag with some sand and tying it to a tree to boxing or something, with the point that he will stay at most ten meters away in the process, vaguely to protect Skye. When Skye was about to go to bed a little later, he would consciously take a thin blanket to the driver's seat and sleep against him, without the latter having the cheekiness to share with Skye the bed in her car that could be spread out by pushing the computer to the side, although it would sleep two people without any problem, and he could put a few bowls of water in the middle (laughs).
So while she was still a little dissatisfied with what Rollo was going to do and the way he did it, at least it was a change from the impression of alcoholism and gambling.
Then on this day, there was finally movement on the surveillance side.
First Obadestin's car came and went, and after more than half an hour, James Rodi's car, and then a humanoid flying machine flew out of the roof of the villa, and James Rodi left. Skye told Rollo about all of this, and Rollo became more and more excited.
"Alright, my chance has come!"
Seeing him like this, Skye became more and more surprised: "Do you know what's going on inside?" No, you already knew what was going to happen? ”
"Pretty much." Rollo smiled. "Okay, now your last task, don't worry about the villa, hack all the cameras around the villa, mainly the ones we have on the way from here to the villa, and then you can get rid of this guy me."
He said 'get rid of' so bluntly, Skye was a little embarrassed for a while. Skye did mean to get rid of Rollo as soon as possible, at least she thought she did. Only now, she felt a little unsure again.
"By the way, you haven't said what that humanoid flying machine is!" In order to eliminate that embarrassment, she randomly found a topic, "If it was a remote-controlled plane, it would be too big and flying too fast." ”
"Oh, you'll find out tomorrow what that is." Rollo said this, finishing his mismatched armor at the same time, and then looked in the direction of the villa and took a deep breath. Just when Skye thought he was going to go, he suddenly turned his head. "By the way, I almost forgot one thing. I said I'd pay you back if I borrowed your money, but ...... I guess even if we meet again, it will be a long time before we meet on the spot, so I'll give you a message as compensation. ”
Skye pursed his lips, thinking he was making excuses not wanting to pay back. "Forget the news or something, I don't care......"
"Hehe, don't talk too much, you'll care." Rollo smiled again. "You're looking for your parents, you think someone is hiding something, and you think there's something special about you. I happen to know that an organization is best at secrecy, and it's about particular events. The existence of superpowers like me is what they want to cover up. Maybe that organization will know something about what you're looking for. ”
I didn't expect Rollo to suddenly say such news on the occasion of separation, and Skye suddenly became even more excited than the current Rollo: "This, this is probably what I'm looking for!" What is this organization called? ”
"Homeland Strategic Defense Offensive and Logistics Support Agency, acronym S.H.I.E.L.D. The Allied Strategic Science Corps, which fought against the Nazis during World War II, was its predecessor. ”
"Strategic Science Corps, S.S.R.? The organization that created Captain America? ”
"It's really SSR, it's the rarest and most precious thing, once you have it, you can benefit for life...... Well, you don't understand the humor in it. "Rollo didn't get a response for a while, and it was a little boring, so he stopped selling off." Your knowledge of this organization is all hacked on the Internet. Strictly speaking, Captain America was not created by the Strategic Science Corps, but this world's first superhero, or superpower hero, is indeed related to this organization and even S.H.I.E.L.D., which inherited this organization. S.H.I.E.L.D. loves nothing more than to hide those things, and it's certainly been hiding quite a few in over sixty years. So, even if this organization has nothing to do with your background, you can find something in it that interests you - superpower events. ”
Misleading Skye slightly, Rollo looked at her in thought again, then turned and walked on the way to the villa. As he had guessed, Malibu 10880 at this time was probably the weakest moment in its security system since its inauguration. Rollo tiptoed in, without setting off any mechanism or anything, and finally put his mind at ease. A few minutes later, in Stark's workshop, he finally found the boulder that had been piled up in the corner. He took off the glove of his right hand and touched it.
There was no movement at first, and Luo Luo thought that he was being tricked by the system mother. Then gradually, the boulder began to emit higher and higher heat, while at the same time carrying a brighter and brighter light. However, this light is not the same 'holy light color' as Rollo's useless superpower with an activation level of 23%, but a rainbow color that can barely be used on the side. The rainbow-colored light gradually took over the entire space, even beyond the surrounding walls and windows, and shone out of the villa.
And Luo Luo, who was in the center of the light, retracted his smile and turned into a thick doubt: "Wait, this is not what I imagined......"
As he told Skye, he thought the boulder would make up for him with 23% of his Glowing superpower. He didn't expect the full version of this superpower to be as rebellious as the "King of Fighters" series of Big Snake's full-screen kill "Let everything be back to nothing", at least like the holy light of the priest paladin in "World of Warcraft" to replenish blood, it is also better than the current state of a little light and a little heat that is useless. But this boulder's help to Luo Luo is not in the superpower of his body itself?
Well, if you think about it carefully, what the system mother said was just to let him go to find this boulder, without specifying the effect of the boulder?
It wasn't until he didn't know exactly how much time had passed, that Luo Luo felt that his right hand, which was completely covered by the rainbow-colored light, completely lost the touch of the boulder, and instead subconsciously grabbed something like a stick handle, and felt a heavy weight. At the same time, the rainbow-colored glow began to retract.
The retraction of light is weird enough, as if it were not just a simple light but an entity. In addition, the retraction began to occur from the periphery, first the light that shone outside the villa disappeared, then inside the villa, then inside this workshop, and finally, most of the rainbow-colored light poured into the great sword in Luo Luo's hand. The remaining handful entered Rollo's body through the great sword, along his arm. He immediately felt a stream of heat rush through his body, almost as far as he could bear. Then, as the heat dissipated, he seemed to have some connection with the greatsword.
Yes, Dashi did not make up for the activation of Rollo's superpowers, but turned into a big sword. The stick-like thing that Rollo was holding before was the hilt of his sword.
It is said that it is a big sword, but in fact, it is not appropriate according to the perception of Oriental people, and it may be more appropriate to define it as a "knife". It has only one blade, one with obtuse angles. The blade is split into two sections by an obtuse angle, which is not convenient for cutting, but magnifies the effect of chopping. In addition, its entire blade is wide and long, the back of the knife is thick enough, and there is a horizontal blood groove on the surface of the knife, which is completely a battlefield killing weapon born for chopping. However, it is not a simple cold weapon, the black handle that takes up almost one-third of the length of the entire weapon has a design similar to the main weapon of Nero in "Devil May Cry 4", the 'Crimson Queen', with the addition of a charging device similar to the throttle of a motorcycle, and probably like the Bonus Queen, it can be charged to enhance its effect and power?
Looking at this somewhat steampunk-style knife, uh, sword, Rollo had some feelings. First of all, this sword is quite heavy. Secondly, why should a knife and a sword be the same word in English? Finally, he held it in his right hand and pointed diagonally to the ground, and the palm of his left hand flipped up to release the powerless and threatening golden light, and laughed at himself in a low voice: "So, I'm a demon swordsman now?" ”
There is no such thing as a 'magic swordsman' in the translation, so Rollo thinks of it as a sword for the time being. Of course, the best thing to do is to come up with a name for it, so that it will be easy to introduce it to others later.
Just as Rollo was thinking so crankily, there was a noise outside. The voice was a little farther away, a little soft, but Rollo still heard it, and it made him stunned for a moment. But now is obviously not the time to think too much, judging by the sound, there are a lot of people coming, and there are more than one place...... Alas, I didn't expect Dashi to get such a conspicuous big sword in exchange, so Luo Luo couldn't leave quietly if he wanted to!
"If only this big guy could hide."
As soon as this thought came to him, the next moment, the great sword turned into a colored streamer and entered his body along his arm, and disappeared...... He was dumbfounded. This golden finger is not what he imagined, but it seems surprisingly useful!
