Looking at Jason's corpse that suddenly appeared before him, Lu Yi didn't spare it a second glance. It was just a body—no need to waste any more thought on it. He shifted his attention to something else.
"Congratulations, Host, you've earned a Perfect Extraction Opportunity! Up to now, you have obtained one Normal Extraction Chance, one Enhanced Extraction Chance, and one Perfect Extraction Chance!"
"Congratulations to the tenant for collecting all extraction opportunities! But it must be noted, this congratulation has no practical effect—it's just a simple celebration. If you're thinking about using these extraction chances to summon a dragon, forget it!"
"Did I ever think about that? You're talking nonsense again!" Lu Yi couldn't help but complain.
Complaints aside, he was still very pleased.
A perfect extraction opportunity was a great thing. Last time, Lu Yi used this kind of chance to obtain all of Dumbledore's power, and it benefited him immensely. All the effort had been worth it. He had deliberately allowed Jason to attack him for this very opportunity.
Now, it seemed the result was good—very rewarding indeed!
The intensity of battle is a key factor in determining extraction rating. Lu Yi increased the battle intensity, which improved the evaluation, and now he had achieved a Perfect level extraction chance.
If he hadn't pushed harder this time, he might have only received an Optimal Extraction Chance, not a Perfect one like now.
"Does the Host want to use this Perfect Extraction Opportunity right now?"
"Not yet. There's something I need to do first!"
Perfect-level extraction is a good thing, and it's best to use it right away. But before that, Lu Yi indeed had something to handle—he couldn't waste time.
"Do you have something urgent to do?"
The system expressed curiosity!
Lu Yi's system was very humanized, and it never pried into his thoughts, so it had no idea what he was thinking. It only evaluated Lu Yi's battle performance and granted rewards accordingly.
"Run!"
"What?" The system thought it misheard.
"Run away."
Right after saying that, Lu Yi's body shot into the air, breaking the sound barrier as he flew into the distance.
"What's going on?"
"Someone's planting mushrooms!"
"Huh?"
Just as the system made a doubtful sound, a violent explosion erupted from the place where Lu Yi had been standing, followed by a thunderous boom.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, a mushroom cloud silently rose from the ground, and scorching heat instantly vaporized everything left at the site.
Bodies, guns, wheelchairs, musical instruments—everything. Perhaps the only thing left might be that box infused with Adamantium.
Someone had dropped a low-yield nuclear bomb at the exact spot where Lu Yi had been standing, wiping out everything there.
That was exactly why Lu Yi chose to run!
Lu Yi wasn't actually afraid of missiles. If they came, he could easily destroy them. But nukes were a different story.
With his current physical capabilities, he had no way to defend himself at the very center of a nuclear explosion.
Of course, if Lu Yi used magic, it would be a different story. As long as he cast a spell before the nuke detonated, no matter how powerful it was, it would fail and merely turn into fireworks.
As for why he didn't use magic and chose to run instead—even though it seemed like a cowardly move—Lu Yi could only say he was looking for an excuse, an excuse to negotiate with the United States. As long as the nuclear bomb didn't explode, there was still room to talk. There would still be explanations. But once it exploded, everything would be over.
And that was exactly what Lu Yi wanted!
Additionally, Lu Yi wanted to know the limit of his defensive capabilities. This was a great opportunity.
Normal attacks were ineffective against him, so only a nuclear explosion could serve as a meaningful test. As long as he didn't reach the explosion's core, he wouldn't die.
After running out of the core blast zone, Lu Yi stopped. He didn't need to run anymore.
Lu Yi smiled slightly, opened his arms, and welcomed the explosion's aftermath.
"Come on, harder!"
As soon as he spoke, the violently expanding shockwave engulfed Lu Yi, and all he could see was burning red.
Lu Yi didn't stop moving. Instead, he rushed toward the explosion, moving at supersonic speed, getting closer to the core—using this as a nuclear blast experiment to test his limits.
Lu Yi was very relaxed during this nuclear test. But not everyone felt the same. For example—Nick Fury!
Bang!
Nick Fury slammed his fist heavily onto the desk, and a deafening bang echoed through the office.
"Who? Who did this?" Fury roared.
Standing beside him, Coulson and Natasha didn't look any better—their faces were full of anger.
"It was a military command! We still don't know who gave the order!" a sweating civilian said nervously.
"Find out!" Fury roared again.
Fury had already known about the nuclear blast.
But it was hard to accept it. A low-yield nuclear bomb had detonated not far from New York City. How could that not shock him?
And that wasn't even the worst part. The worst part was the blast location—it was precisely where Lu Yi had been monitored.
This was bad.
Nuclear bombs are humanity's ultimate weapon, but he was certain that a low-yield nuclear bomb would never kill Lu Yi—only anger him, and that terrified Fury.
