American Comics: Borrowed Magic By Skill, Why Should I Return It?

Chapter 28: The Fruits of Face Ability!

In times of crisis, people often unleash their limits.

This time, Chu Xiu released the teleportation magic in less than 0.01 seconds!

Then he jumped in.

A few seconds later, the same 'black hole' appeared again.

Chu Xiu slowly emerged from it, holding several heavy boxes in his hands.

"Fortunately, no one took them."

Got the money.

Chu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the house.

Fortunately, the battle did not affect this area.

To be precise, the entire Queens district did not suffer any damage.

However, nearby residents responded to the call and temporarily evacuated the area.

When Chu Xiu came back, the entire community was empty except for him.

The Parker family next door had also evacuated.

Back home, Chu Xiu threw the large boxes of money and jewelry he had obtained this time, along with the two suitcases from last time, into the house.

Looking at the stacks of cash and jewelry in the large boxes, Chu Xiu had a satisfied smile on his face.

Maybe he was a squirrel in his previous life.

Chu Xiu had a strong addiction to collecting, especially collecting small change.

I can live without spending it, but I can't live without it!

...

Time passed quietly.

That night, the news about the demon invasion was broadcasted on TV.

The media collectively referred to this battle as the Second New York War.

But compared to the first New York War...

After this battle, the public's attitude towards the Avengers underwent a drastic change.

To be precise...

They thought the Avengers were useless.

"The Avengers can't defeat those demons at all!"

"Where's Thor? Where's Thor?"

"If it weren't for the mysterious magician and demon hunter, we might have died long ago..."

"That's right!"

"Where's Thor?"

"Especially that rich kid Tony Stark, he's not worthy of being a superhero!"

"I think the Avengers did their best..."

"No, I just want to ask, where's Thor?"

The interviews with the public on TV confirmed the change in people's attitudes.

As a species, humans have two major hobbies: creating gods and pulling gods off their pedestals.

Obviously, the performance of the Avengers this time did not satisfy people.

Some questioned Tony Stark, who had made great contributions in the previous war.

Others kept asking where Thor was and why he didn't show up for such a big event.

Of course, there were also rational people who believed that the Avengers had done their best, but the enemy was too powerful.

But all of this...

Chu Xiu, sitting in front of the TV, didn't care.

After watching the entire report, only one thing caught his attention.

"They call me the Demon Hunter?"

"Isn't this name a bit low in style?"

That's right!

Chu Xiu only cared about his title.

After all, who would bother to worry about others for no reason?

Chu Xiu lay comfortably on the sofa in a very relaxed posture, with his legs crossed to the side.

The shadows of the surrounding objects quickly solidified into two shadow soldiers, who then began to massage Chu Xiu's legs.

Hmm~ I have to admit.

Shadow Fiend's Ability is indeed useful.

While enjoying himself, Chu Xiu skillfully took out his phone, preparing to gain some points.

Perhaps it was because a major event happened today.

The number of players online in the game noticeably decreased.

He waited in line for a long time.

Chu Xiu finally got into a match.

"The number one player in the American server, Batman, is here. Please make way, third floor."

...

【Name: Chu Xiu】

【Origin: Unknown】

【Age: Unknown】

【Ability: Inadequate data, unable to analyze】

Phil Coulson looked at the information in front of him, looking confused.

Except for a name, everything else was unknown or unable to be analyzed due to insufficient data.

There was almost no valuable information!

"Oh, Nick Fury asked me to tell you."

"The name Chu Xiu might be a fake identity like Mordo's, so be careful in identifying it."

"As for the rest... you'll have to figure it out yourself."

"Uh, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Agent Hill finished speaking.

Feeling a bit absurd, she quickly found an excuse and left.

Thankfully, this ghostly task didn't fall on her.

...

Looking at Hill's disappearing figure, Phil Coulson sighed slowly. Sometimes, it's better for a person to be dead.

At least Deadman wouldn't be assigned such a lousy task by his superior.

"So this task falls on our team's shoulders?"

Grant Ward picked up the information on the table.

He, along with Melinda May, a level seven agent, researcher Jemma Simmons, researcher Leo Fitz, and the recently joined Asian female hacker, Skye, all belonged to Phil Coulson's special operations team.

"No."

"This task falls solely on me."

Phil Coulson took back the information from Grant Ward's hand.

Looking at it again,

it still felt absurd.

Besides a bunch of unknowns, the information also recorded one of the target's hobbies.

- Playing games.

"Isn't this just a gaming nerd?"

Phil Coulson had a headache.

Throughout his agent career, he had encountered all kinds of people.

From heinous criminals to individuals with various personalities and super abilities, but never a gaming nerd.

"A gaming nerd?"

"I'm familiar with this! How about I go and make contact with this person?"

Skye, the newly joined female hacker, immediately became interested upon hearing the words "gaming nerd."

As a beautiful and sweet-voiced female hacker, Skye knew those stinky gamers very well.

As long as she took action,

she guaranteed to confuse the target.

"No."

"This is my personal mission."

Phil Coulson decisively rejected Skye's volunteering.

"And the mission regulations clearly state that methods like seduction are not allowed."

Upon hearing this, Skye could only sit back in disappointment.

"But I've already figured out how to approach the target."

Phil Coulson closed the information, his eyes filled with confidence.

"I will..."

"Make friends through combat!"
