Just then, several black SUVs slowly drove up and parked by the side of the road.
Several men in black suits got out of the cars.
They rudely barged into the cordon and then showed their identification.
"FBI, we are in charge here now."
The leading man ordered the Police Officer.
"Damn FBI!"
The Police Officer cursed under his breath, then waved his hand to have his subordinates transfer the physical evidence, while he himself went to the side to smoke, not bothering to deal with these FBI agents who always liked to steal their credit!
A moment later;
The Police Officers on the scene began to withdraw.
The area was taken over by the FBI.
Similar situations also occurred at the other four crime scenes; in all cases, FBI agents entered, and local Police Officers were ordered to leave.
After all outsiders had left, these FBI agents entered the crime scenes to investigate.
"Officer, the Police have been sent away, and currently, no traces of Inhumans activity have been detected."
The FBI head who had previously shown his identification walked to the side, pulled out a phone, dialed a number, and reported the situation at the scene to the people above him.
"Continue to follow up. After ruling out the possibility of Inhumans involvement, hand it over to the FBI for handling."
The Officer on the other end of the line only replied with one sentence before hanging up.
At the same time, boxes adorned with eagle patterns were carried out of the cars by these "FBI" agents and moved into the scene.
It turned out that these "FBI" agents were not actual FBI at all, but S.H.I.E.L.D. agents impersonating them.
At this moment, Luo Di did not know that his crime scenes had already attracted the attention of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Fortunately, S.H.I.E.L.D. thought the perpetrators were Inhumans, so they brought instruments capable of detecting the special energy traces left behind when Inhumans use their abilities.
However, Luo Di was not an Inhumans.
He was a Mutant!
Luo Di did not know whether Mutants left energy traces at the scene when using their Mutant abilities, but even if they did, those instruments certainly wouldn't be able to detect them.
After all;
These instruments were specifically designed for Inhumans.
The existence of Mutants had never been exposed!
Even if Luo Di were to proactively declare himself a Mutant, others would probably still believe he was an Inhumans, just one who insisted on calling himself a Mutant.
....
PS: The eighth update is here! Starting the afternoon's work!! Keep up the good work!!!.
Chapter 9: Bristle ability? You're the hedgehog! Harry's gratitude!
A little after 1 AM.
Luo Di returned to his residence, looking a bit tipsy.
As soon as he opened the door, Red Devil pounced on him.
Luo Di caught him in his arms.
"Red Devil, were you a good boy at home today?"
Luo Di smiled as he rubbed the husky's head, checking various parts of the house to make sure he hadn't torn anything apart, then he smiled and vigorously rubbed Red Devil's belly.
"Alright, go play."
Luo Di let go, and Red Devil ran off like he was frolicking.
Sitting down on the sofa, Luo Di immediately summoned the system interface.
After midnight, he could sign in again today.
Luo Di hadn't signed in on the way home, but now that he was back, he naturally wouldn't wait any longer.
"System, sign in!"
Ding~!
A chime rang—
"Congratulations, Host, for signing in and acquiring the Bristle ability, from the Mutant Hedgehog."
Bristle ability?
What kind of trash ability was that?
Luo Di was speechless.
He had thought his luck today would be as good as ever.
But he got this instead?
However;
Not giving up, Luo Di still checked the information displayed on the system interface, just in case this Bristle ability was more powerful than he imagined?
[Unactivated Ability]
[Bristle ability. Ipsilon]
"...."
Seeing the information displayed on the system interface, Luo Di was completely speechless.
Trash Bristle ability!
It was only Ipsilon.
Damn~!
"My luck was clearly good today!"
Luo Di muttered to himself.
"System, what should I do with useless abilities like this? If they are randomly strengthened, will their potential increase?"
"No," the system replied, "The system's strengthening does not change the inherent potential level of the ability; it only alters the effect when the ability is used."
"So, if it's originally an Ipsilon, even if it's strengthened a billion times, it's still Ipsilon? It just performs a billion times stronger than normal?"
Luo Di asked, based on his understanding.
"Yes."
The system replied.
"However, if the Host does not need this ability, you can choose to decompose it."
"Decomposed abilities can be converted into proficiency for other owned abilities, increasing their development level."
Luo Di had originally given up completely, after all, a billion times was just talk; he didn't believe he could randomly get such a high multiplier.
Getting a few tens or hundreds of times would already be considered lucky.
What's more;
It only enhanced the manifestation of the ability, not its essence.
And what was the essence of an Ipsilon ability?
It would completely change a person's appearance!
Luo Di didn't want to turn into a hedgehog; how could he continue to live in human society like that?
However;
Hearing the system's subsequent explanation, Luo Di realized that useless abilities could also be decomposed.
And decomposed abilities could be used to increase the development level of other abilities.
This was good!
In the future, useless abilities could all be decomposed, which would save Luo Di the process of developing these abilities himself, saving a lot of time.
"In that case, decompose it."
Luo Di instructed.
"Are you sure you want to decompose the [Bristle ability]?"
"Confirm!"
Why keep trash abilities for the New Year!
Decompose it quickly!
"Successfully decomposed [Bristle ability]!"
Luo Di saw that the Bristle ability was indeed no longer present in the unactivated abilities section of the interface.
"Add the decomposed proficiency to the Teleportation ability."
Luo Di instructed.
The Rapid Self-Healing ability had already been developed to its maximum.
After all, it only had Delta potential.
Level 2 was the limit.
But the Teleportation ability was different; it was inherently Alpha-level, and it involved the spatial domain, with the potential to break through Alpha-level and reach Omega-level heights!
Therefore, adding to this ability would absolutely not be a waste.
Just think, a Level 2 development was already enough for Luo Di to teleport with a deserted island of ten thousand cubic meters; if he continued to raise it.
How powerful would it become?
So, just add it!
No need to keep it.
As Luo Di's command was issued, he felt as if he had practiced the Teleportation ability thousands of times.
Although the development level on the system interface still showed Level 2, Luo Di's actual proficiency in using this ability was already much greater than before.
If he decomposed five or six more trash abilities like Bristle, he believed he would soon be able to raise the Teleportation ability's development level to Level 3!
At that time, Luo Di could try again to see if he could teleport with an even larger island.
....
The next day.
Harry brought a good bottle of wine to Luo Di.
The two of them had a few drinks at noon, and Harry looked much more relaxed than he had yesterday.
The smiles on his face also increased.
Before leaving, he told Luo Di to wait two days.
After he finished dealing with the company matters, he would bring the share transfer agreement for the 0.5% shares he had promised him.
Luo Di also said there was no need to rush.
He didn't believe Harry would deceive him on such a matter.
In the next few days.
The Osborn Group was in a state of chaos due to the murder of five major shareholders.
The remaining minor and medium shareholders could no longer unite against Harry, and Harry took the opportunity to win over a group of smaller shareholders, uniting with them to divide some of the shares left behind by the five deceased major shareholders.
Harry himself obtained about 2.3%, bringing his total shares to 9.8%, almost ten percent!
Besides that, some shares were distributed among the smaller shareholders, but a significant portion was also taken by people supported by the Military.
Harry had no choice in this matter.
On one hand, the Osborn Group needed the Military's support, and on the other hand, the Military was too powerful for him to offend.
