him.”

There was no need to mention that he was far nimbler than ordinary people.

Selina was well aware of the gap between her strength and Luke’s.

Luke would never let Selina think that she should try to approach the man and kill him.

The man was so good at knife-throwing that he would always hit his target however he flicked his hand.

Fighting a close-range battle with such a man was too dangerous and should only be considered as a last resort.

After their discussion, Luke urged Selina to train.

Selina was dumbfounded.
“Huh? It’s almost nine.”

Luke said, “It’s nine, not twelve.
There’s still a long way to go until bedtime.”

Selina roared and charged at him.
She punched him hard for a while, then said, “Okay, I’m going to train.
Leave me alone.”

Luke didn’t resist at all, because Selina hadn’t pulled her punches; her hands had to hurt far more than he did.

After sending Selina off to train, Luke returned to his workshop to continue working on his equipment.

If it wasn’t for the bulletproof vest that he had been wearing, the sniper’s bullet would have torn open a hole in his body.

The special bulletproof vest he had made was extremely tensile, thanks to a particular alloy which Luke created with Tony’s abilities.

However, the alloy was costly and difficult to make.
Luke couldn’t mass produce it, and could only make it for his own use.

Every last bit he created went into the bulletproof vests for him and Selina.

Although the vests weighed no more than five kilograms, the raw materials cost Luke more than five hundred thousand dollars.

But the cost was definitely worth it, considering how the bulletproof vest saved his life.

With this vest and his Elementary Self-Healing, Luke practically couldn’t be killed.

Even Selina would only sustain an injury, when she would otherwise be killed if she wasn’t wearing the vest.

After reflecting and working for a long period of time, Luke completed his modification goals for the day.

He then went to the gym to check on Selina.

Selina wasn’t practicing the technical moves that Luke had told her to, but was using far more violent movements.

Luke asked, “Aren’t you supposed to be practicing the technical moves?”

Selina ignored him and simply continued attacking the human-shaped target in front of her.

After a long while, she finally stopped, breathing hard.
“I’m not an idiot.
If I don’t work hard, I may be killed if I run into the guy from today again.”

After a brief silence, Luke suddenly asked, “Do you want to go back to Houston?”

Selina rolled her eyes at him.
“Do you think I’m an idiot who wants to spend my entire life dealing with street fights and family drama every day? Without you, I would just be on street patrol.”

Luke said, “But you’ll run into more danger if you follow me.
Are you really sure you don’t want to reconsider?”
