Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics

"Congratulations to the host for completing the custom task - stealing the 'Ocean Gem'

Task Difficulty: Difficult

Treasure value: Common (a special ore from the ocean kingdom of Atlantis, with a certain amount of magical adaptability)

Gorgeous grade: A

Comprehensive evaluation: A+ (Exquisite performance and flexible use of props make you get a higher evaluation.)

Rewards: 30172 exclamation points (from stadium audience, GCPD police, Jim Gordon, Robin...) + 2400 exclamation points (fixed for completing tasks)”

"Complete the additional goal: Steal the 'Bat Lamp', with an additional reward of 3000 exclamation points"

"The account balance is 235 amazing points, and the total amazing value is 35807 points."

Hearing the system's notification sound in his ears, Dean couldn't help showing a look of joy on his face.

This wave is really a big profit!

The Cavaliers Stadium, which can accommodate 30,000 people, is full of seats, which directly brought Dean more than 30,000 surprise points of income.

Excluding the amazement points obtained from the audience, the automatic rewards for completing tasks have also risen to 2400 points.

What Dean didn't expect was that he even got an extra 3,000 points for stealing the Bat Lamp.

The main reason why he stole the bat lamp in the first place was that it took time to remove the gemstone from the bat symbol with a hard-faced cutter, and it would be too dangerous to cut it in front of Robin and GCPD.

Therefore, it is a better choice to hide the bat light before cutting.

Of course, the topicality and drama created by changing the bat lights are also within the scope of Dean's consideration.

Nearly 36,000 exclamation points. Since Dean got the system, he has never seen so many exclamation points. This time, he can finally squander it.

I gritted my teeth and spent the balance until there were only more than 200 points left, and I did nothing wrong. As the saying goes, only those who dare to surrender everything can get everything.

"What should I exchange for..."

Suddenly there was a huge sum of money in his hand, which made Dean, who had been relatively tight, not know how to spend it for a while.

Before, the situation in Gotham was relatively stable, and he didn't offend any particularly powerful enemies. Even though the Penguin had been trying to plot against him, the methods he used were actually very restrained.

As a Gotham native, Dean has personally experienced the most glorious period of Penguin, which is the first two years after Batman and Robin's debut after Falcone's downfall.

At that time, Scarecrow, Killer Crocodile, Mudface, Mad Hatter, Deadshot, Solomon Grandy... Many famous super villains in Gotham were working under Penguin.

Although they went their separate ways many years ago, and even several of them went to prison or Arkham, they haven't been released yet.

But if Penguin is really determined to pay a lot of money to kill someone, Dean believes that he can hire these super villains back in minutes.

But the Penguin didn't do that before, which at least shows that his murderous intentions towards Kaitou Kidd haven't reached a deep level.

This is also the reason why Phantom Thief Kidd has been relatively smooth in Gotham during this period of time. So far, Dean has indeed not encountered any troublesome characters.

Like Firefly and Human Bat, they, like Kaito Kidd, are newcomers who just debuted this year, and they didn't cause too much difficulty for Dean.

All in all, before this incident, Dean was able to complete the stealing performance relatively easily even without relying on the powerful props given by the system.

But things are different now.

Bruce Wayne publicly challenged Kaito Kidd, sending a signal to Dean.

That means he has already entered Batman's eyes. If he didn't meet Batman in the stadium this time, it might not be the case next time.

When it came time to face Batman, Dean had to undergo a major upgrade. He didn't want to go to Arkham Asylum for further training.

It's just... where should I upgrade it? This requires careful consideration.

"Look at the existing abilities and props first."

Dean picked out the personal panel.

"Name: Dean Suston

Age: 16 years old

Skills: Magic proficiency, vehicle proficiency, lockpicking proficiency, shooting proficiency, fighting proficiency, quick disguise, voice change without props

Items: Card Gun, Hookshot Gun, Triangle Glider, Bulletproof Cloak, Human Figure, Small Surveillance System Jammer, Stone of Dire Fortune, Curse Resistance Shield (Class C Doom), Hard Face Cutter, Micro Bug, Textile Material repair fluid, soil circulation cleaner

Talent: Resistant Skin (Low Level) Sensitive Reaction (Middle Level)

Account balance: 35807 exclamation value"

Hmm~ this pleasing balance...

At this time, Dean looked at the two talents he already had.

According to the grading description of talents in the system, it is divided into five levels: low-level, middle-level, high-level, special-level, and perfect. You can buy high-level talent cards to directly obtain high-level talents, or you can pay the same amount of exclamation points to Low-level talents are upgraded to high-level talents.

Taking resistant skin as an example, the low-level effect is to slow down 10% of trauma caused by various special attributes such as burning, freezing, corrosion, toxins, radiation, and explosions, and accelerate healing.

Intermediate level is 35%, high level is 60%, special level is 90%, and perfection is 100% immunity.

Depending on the type of talent, the price required to upgrade will also fluctuate.

Only the prices of the three stages of low, middle and high are fixed. One thousand, two thousand, and five thousand remain unchanged. Starting from the special-level talents, the pricing becomes magical, and the floating value is between 10,000 and 100,000.

Consummation-level talents start at 200,000 yuan, with no upper limit, but considering its powerful effects, this price does not seem so unacceptable.

Among them, Dean's sensitive reaction talent belongs to the highest price tier. Upgrading to a super sensitive reaction requires 100,000 exclamation points, and upgrading to a perfect level requires 1 million exclamation points.

Resistant skin is considered to be in the middle range. It takes 50,000 exclamation points to upgrade to a special level, and 400,000 exclamation points to complete it.

After thinking twice, Dean decided to upgrade the resistant skin and sensitive response to high-level first. These two talents have great potential and are core abilities that must be replaced.

Maybe the superficial description of the resistant skin looks a little weak, and the perfect level that is less than 100% immune may not be useful.

But is that really the case?

Of course not, because the system's judgment of damage is not based on the size of the external attack, but based on the size of the attack received by the host itself.

What does it mean?

For example, if a grenade can kill Dean, and a missile can also kill Dean, then these two kinds of damage will be judged as fatal damage by the system, regardless of size!

And the resistant skin talent can reduce fatal damage to non-fatal damage, this is the real function of this talent.

In the most easy-to-understand terms, no matter whether the enemy's attack power is 100 or 10,000, at most 100 points of Dean's full health can only be deducted, and it will not be deducted into a negative number.

The low-level resistance skin can reduce the damage by 10%, so that the fatal damage with a 100 HP deduction becomes a serious injury and near-death damage with a 90 HP deduction. This is indeed relatively weak, and the enemy is nothing more than another blow thing.

But once you reach a high level, the resistant skin can reduce the lethal damage to a medium damage that only deducts 40 HP. Are you not tempted by this value?

It sounds like this resistant skin is like an invincible hang, so is this really the case?

(By the way, should I ask for a little leave today? Forget it, let’s ignore such trivial matters, I found that I am a bit bad at writing exchanges, and many things have to be clarified)
