Chapter 2: Blonde

Just as Su Ming was skillfully dodging obstacles underfoot while deep in thought.

The high heels coming towards him suddenly magnified in his vision!

Su Ming raised his hand to block— "Crack! Thump, thump, thump…"

The heel struck his arm with a loud bang, and his arm deformed in response. The immense impact forced Su Ming to retreat several steps before he could steady himself.

His bones silently healed, and Su Ming narrowed his eyes at the person.

Tight leather clothing paired with practical tactical gear, a tall and curvaceous figure, blonde hair and blue eyes, and sharp features—what a thorny rose.

Her sexy curves blocked the only light source in the alley.

“Golden Girl” Elisa Sweet clapped softly: “Not bad reactions, handsome~”

Staring at the woman in front of him, the sound from behind caught Su Ming’s attention—it was just an ordinary car.

“Don’t worry, those guys in suits are already lost… You ran so fast, like you’re very familiar with this place.”

Elisa glanced at her surroundings, and when her curious gaze swept over the vomit next to the trash can, it turned into a look of disgust.

“Who are you?”

His heart was not calm; the several high-tech gadgets hanging on her waist put a slight pressure on Su Ming.

Moreover, breaking his arm without a greeting meant she was definitely up to no good!

“Who I am isn’t important. Someone paid me to retrieve something that doesn’t belong to you.”

Saying that, she pulled out a photo.

The man in the photo had an East Asian face, black messy hair, deep brown eyes, long narrow eyes, and delicate features with a hint of nobility—it was Su Ming.

Su Ming’s pupils constricted, and he murmured, “Bounty Hunter?”

He then paused, not understanding the unfamiliar word that had slipped out, as if it were some kind of profession?

Suddenly, several light-shadows flashed in his mind:

An abandoned dock, a dimly lit bar.

A big man in a suit with a scorpion tattoo on his face patted his shoulder:

“Ming~ It’s up to you!”

Su Ming subconsciously touched his pants pocket—there really was something.

At the same time, a flood of memories surged up…

Su Ming looked at his bullet-ridden suit, a strange look appearing in his eyes.

“I’m actually a HYDRA Agent??”

Su Ming stood rooted to the spot, the two memories from before and after his transmigration constantly colliding, giving him an unreal sense of tearing.

But there was no time to hesitate, the opponent was attacking…

Elisa, seeing that Su Ming was ignoring her, attacked in anger.

Various close-combat moves instantly surrounded Su Ming.

Su Ming, relying on the gifted Jeet Kune Do Mastery he had exchanged for, neutralized all the attacks.

The more he fought, the smoother it became, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "Little Dragon is truly a grandmaster!"

Soon, Elisa found the opponent's moves strangely revealing: she was always intercepted just as she initiated an attack, and the feeling of being unable to exert her strength made her feel frustrated.

Realizing that fighting was useless, Elisa did a backflip to create distance, pulled out a handgun, and pointed it at Su Ming:

“I’m very sorry!”

Su Ming looked at the gun in Elisa’s hand, and a price tag appeared on his retina:

【Used Glock 26 (includes 10 bullets) → Estimated value $400 USD】

“Wait…” Su Ming was about to speak.

“Bang!”

A wisp of smoke drifted by, and a bullet passed through Su Ming’s brow.

Under Elisa’s shocked gaze, the bullet hole healed visibly.

Su Ming sighed lightly. If bullets were useful, I would have died dozens of times over just now…

First, I need to figure out who this woman is.

He slowly walked in front of Elisa, gently took the handgun, showing full gentlemanly demeanor:

“Madam, it’s very impolite to suddenly shoot at someone. I’ll keep the item, and I presume you—have no objections?”

【Unowned weapon detected, exchange?

“Exchange!”

The compact Glock 26 pistol transformed into a data stream and disappeared into his hand, and his account balance rose to $400 USD.

Elisa’s pupils trembled; she didn’t even react when Su Ming took her handgun.

Oh my goodness~!

What did I just see?

A bullet right between the eyebrows, damn it! How is he unharmed?

Damn it! It was just a regular job, why did I have to encounter a monster like this?

In that case…

Her eyes darted around, Elisa prepared to escape from this freak—even though he was very polite.

But her wrist was firmly grasped by the other party.

“Don’t be in such a hurry to leave~ Madam. You haven’t told me yet—who hired you?”

Feeling the smooth, cool touch in his hand, looking at her deer-like blue eyes, which held a hint of fear.

Su Ming’s other hand slowly reached towards her waist…

【Unowned blade detected, estimate value?】

【Unowned rope detected, estimate value?】

【Unowned equipment detected, estimate value?】

A few more smiles appeared in his eyes:

“Estimate value! Exchange!”

The Bounty Hunter nicknamed “Blonde Girl”—Elisa Sweet—experienced the darkest moment of her professional career.

A person she couldn't defeat or kill held her firmly and interrogated her about the source of her mission.

As a professional Bounty Hunter with integrity, Elisa felt insulted.

She glared fiercely at Su Ming, biting her silver teeth:

“It’s Baling… Scorpion Baling, a HYDRA Agent. Retrieve the item, or kill you—commission $2000 USD.”

She almost blurted out the color of her underwear…

In Su Ming’s mind, a big man in a suit with a scorpion tattoo on his face appeared—Baling Turret.

He was his predecessor’s boss.

Didn't he give him the item?

It seems some things need to be clarified…

A thought flashed by, Su Ming smiled and toyed with Elisa’s hair, his hand slowly moving towards her smooth neck, preparing to take this overconfident woman away:

“Anyway, thank you! Beautiful lady~”

Suddenly, hearing the noisy discussions of those searching for him, Su Ming didn't have time to waste with the woman in front of him.

With that, he released Elisa’s wrist and neck, turned and left, his calm demeanor as if he completely didn’t care if the other party would continue to retaliate.

Elisa looked at the handprint on her wrist, recalling the sensation on her neck, a hint of lingering fear appearing in her eyes.

“He just… tried to kill me!?”

She suddenly realized that all the weapons and equipment she had been wearing on her waist were gone…

Terrified and overwhelmed, she fled the place.

Su Ming was now preparing to rush to a place he remembered—the abandoned dock.

He casually knocked out an Agent who was chasing him and changed out of his bullet-ridden suit.

To be fair, the suit issued by the HYDRA organization felt very good. Looking at the handsome young man with a tall, broad-shouldered, and slender-waisted figure in the glass, Su Ming raised his eyebrows slightly and nodded in silent praise.

He took some time to study the system. Golden data streams formed a holographic interface before his eyes:

【Name: Su Ming】

【Age: 28】

【Physical Strength: 5】

【Current Account: $10200 USD】

【Existing Talents: Sub-Wolverine Level Recovery, Dynamic Vision Lv.1, Jeet Kune Do Mastery】

Surprised that the equipment on the blonde woman was so valuable, Su Ming opened the system store for the first time.

【Infinity Stones (Blue) *** USD】

【Infinity Stones (Green) *** USD】

【Magneto → Magnetic Control, $20,000,000 USD】

【Superman → Steel Body, $10,000,000 USD】

【Dr. X → Telepathy, $6,000,000 USD】

【Dr. Strange → Item Summoning, $5,000,000 USD】

Looking at each familiar name, Su Ming narrowed his eyes:

“It really is the Marvel World!”

Oh? Infinity Stones can be exchanged?

When he looked closely at the price…

One trillion? US dollars?

Alright, never mind…

Besides the Infinity Stones, a dazzling array of various talents appeared before Su Ming, totaling over a hundred pages.

Even the cheapest ones were no less than ten thousand USD.

This made Su Ming realize how lovely the three talents that the system actively pushed, which also came with a 10% discount, were.

Those were talents originally priced at one hundred thousand USD!

It seems that as long as he has money, there’s nothing that can’t be exchanged in the system.

If that’s the case…

“Why am I still toiling as a grunt in the HYDRA organization?”

In his memories, his predecessor was just a low-level cannon fodder in the HYDRA organization, barely making a living on a meager salary.

Making money is the way to go!

Change jobs! Must change jobs!

Wouldn’t it be better to be a Bounty Hunter, earn money, improve his strength, and then continue making more money?

However, the current situation still needed to be clarified. Being constantly chased by a group of people was not a pleasant thing.

Having made up his mind, Su Ming hailed a taxi.
