Bennet nervously watched Su Zhan, who held the gun, looked at it a few times, then pointed it at his arm.
"Bang!"
The gun fired, and the bullet pierced his arm.
Fortunately, the gun's sound was very low, so it wouldn't attract attention.
"You…" Bennet didn't quite understand what he was doing, why would he shoot himself? But very quickly… he found that the gunshot wound healed rapidly, restoring to its original state in the blink of an eye, as if he hadn't been injured at all.
"This Ability looks good." Su Zhan examined his arm; the wound healed in less than a second.
This naturally included Extremis's healing Ability, but Extremis alone wouldn't be that fast.
He could feel that Claire's Ability was merging with the healing Ability in Extremis, though the merging speed wasn't fast, so this time he didn't feel like he was going to faint.
"Didn't you ask me what I did to Claire? It's this!"
Su Zhan raised his arm and said to Bennet.
Bennet shook his head, asking in disbelief, "You… you mean, you took Claire's Ability? You are Zero?"
Zero is a relatively dangerous guy in the superpower heroes World; he can specifically cut open the heads of superpower Ability users, then peek into how superpowers work, and acquire the other party's superpower.
It is said that his Ability is to see through how everything operates.
Su Zhan had never fully understood this Ability, not knowing if it belonged to a superpower or a normal Ability? After all, the scope of being able to see through the operation of everything was too vague.
Seeing Bennet's nervous expression, Su Zhan shook his head helplessly and said, "Come on, if I were Zero, would Claire still be alive now? I can obtain her Ability without harming her, so… you don't have to worry about the organization behind you taking her away, nor do you have to worry about her being in any danger!"
Bennet didn't speak, but he looked relieved.
What Su Zhan did indeed solved his trouble, but… he was indeed very grateful to Su Zhan, but he wouldn't let Su Zhan go because of it. A superpower Ability user who could take away others' Ability, and not in the murderous way Zero did, this was a major discovery!
Bennet looked at Su Zhan, then after a moment, he reached out and took back his gun, then turned and left without a word.
Su Zhan walked to the window and just happened to see Claire get into the car with Bennet; she was looking this way, and after spotting Su Zhan, she smiled and waved.
"Undying Girl: Claire Bennet, favorability increased by thirty percent, total favorability reached ninety-five percent, Fighting Arena opened, Fighting Arena character input…"
The system's voice sounded, and Su Zhan sat down, casually saying, "It's useless even if it's opened."
"After characters are input into the Fighting Arena, their status can be updated at any time. If you can return to when the character had not yet lost their Ability, you can update the Fighting Arena character. Additionally, sparring in the Fighting Arena can increase favorability. The higher the percentage of favorability, the greater the chance of bringing them out of the space-time!"
The system's answer instantly piqued Su Zhan's interest.
If that were truly the case, then he might have to re-evaluate the role of the Fighting Arena.
Chapter 0118 Powerful Function
The Fighting Arena character status update is one thing for now; anyway, the Fighting Arena sounds like it's for sparring to gain combat experience. If it can update status, it merely transforms this Fighting Arena from useless to useful. What really concerned Su Zhan was the latter part: increasing favorability and… the higher the percentage of favorability, the greater the chance of bringing them out of the space-time!
"System, does 'bringing them out of the space-time' mean I can bring people from the instance plane to the Marvel Universe?"
"Yes."
"Conversely, that means I can bring people from the Marvel Universe to the instance plane? If that's the case, then I retract my previous statement; the function of this Fighting Arena is too powerful."
Simply put, this means being able to bring people across planes.
If he brought people from the instance plane to the Marvel Universe, wouldn't he suddenly have many more helpers? In other words, if he brought people from the Marvel Universe to the instance plane, wouldn't it be easier for him to complete tasks and achieve his goals in the instance plane?
"Why isn't there a favorability prompt for the Marvel Universe?"
In the instance plane, the system would prompt when favorability increased, but not in the Marvel Universe. For example, Skye, Blink, Natasha, and so on, their favorability must not be low, right?
"System level too low, main World favorability cannot be displayed."
"..."
Su Zhan was speechless. "So, you're actually just trying to remind me to work hard on tasks and get energy so you can upgrade quickly, right?"
The system was silent, not responding.
"Open the Fighting Arena, let's see what it's like."
"Fighting Arena opening, scene initializing…"
As the system's voice sounded, Su Zhan found himself already in the Fighting Arena, a relatively spacious ring, completely dark all around with nothing visible, but the ring itself was very bright.
"This range of activity is too small, isn't it? Can it change?" Su Zhan asked.
"The more characters in the Fighting Arena, the more scope can be unlocked."
"Alright, this is just an upgrade game!"
Su Zhan pouted, then noticed a holographic screen above his head, displaying a single character's avatar, which was the Undying Girl Claire.
"Just one? Is there no one in the main World whose favorability has reached eighty percent?" Su Zhan frowned. Could it be that Skye and his favorability hadn't reached eighty percent?
"Host can look closely at the screen; this displays characters from the instance plane. There's an arrow next to it, which is for the main World, but because the system level is too low, the main World page cannot be selected temporarily."
"Alright!"
With that explanation, Su Zhan's mood improved slightly; it was just unselectable, not nonexistent.
Su Zhan's mind stirred, and he selected the Undying Girl Claire on the virtual screen.
A moment later, a ball of light gradually appeared before his eyes, and when the light dissipated, Claire had appeared before him.
"What is this place? Wasn't I in Dad's car, how did I suddenly get here? Su Zhan, you're here too?" After Claire appeared, she looked around confusedly, somewhat bewildered. Seeing Su Zhan was like seeing her backbone, and she hurried to his side.
Claire's reaction also startled Su Zhan; he subconsciously shook his head and secretly asked the system, "What's going on? She… she seems so real? Did you actually teleport the real Claire here? Not some copied data?"
"This is the real her. When favorability reaches eighty percent or more, her soul automatically binds with you, or rather, with the system. So when the Fighting Arena is opened and you select her, she will appear here. But you can rest assured, time outside is currently static, so there's no need to worry about any unexpected situations. When she leaves, her memory can also be erased; she won't remember appearing here!"
This time, the system was relatively reliable and explained very clearly.
Having understood the situation, Su Zhan felt relieved and smiled at Claire, saying, "Don't worry, there's no danger here. This is my place, I guess."
"How did you get me here?" Claire asked curiously.
If the favorability was low, encountering such a situation would absolutely not be curiosity, but now, she was only curious and not worried, trusting Su Zhan completely.
"It's my Ability, I have many Abilities."
"Then why did you bring me here?" Claire asked.
"Do what?"
