Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

Dean was overjoyed when he heard the system prompt.

The system indeed has a way to make itself immune to the curse.

Although it is only immune to the kind of curse that also brings 'bad luck', it can only fully resist C-level strength.

But this function is still of extremely high value to Dean.

First of all, the analysis is automatically enabled by the system, and no exclamation points are deducted. The subsequent explanation does not mention that exclamation points are needed to absorb the 'sealed object'.

In other words, this is equivalent to Dean getting a genuine magic immunity passive for nothing.

Moreover, the threat of the C-class curse is not small. Ordinary people are basically bound to die if they touch it. I am afraid that even some superheroes who are not strong enough will be killed by this thing.

At this time, the system's beep sounded in Dean's ears again.

"Would you like to enable the absorption function?"

you still need to ask? Is there any reason not to turn it on?

Dean pressed confirm without saying a word.

The box he placed on the table with the Stone of Doom sealed inside suddenly lit up for a burst of light, and then the entire box began to disintegrate itself, turning into countless tiny fragments and disappearing into the invisible.

"Absorption completed, the anti-curse shield is being constructed... Construction completed."

It's said to be a shield, but it's invisible and intangible. After the construction was completed, Dean didn't feel anything. It was almost the same as usual.

On the table, because the box used to seal the curse was absorbed by the system, the Stone of Doom inside is now lying upright on it.

Dean reached out and picked up the Stone of Doom. When his fingers touched its surface, a cold feeling suddenly hit Dean.

The feeling is fleeting, like the feeling you get when you shiver after entering a cold storage room on a hot day.

"Was that the so-called curse just now?"

Dean thought to himself, "It doesn't seem strange. Is the shield effective?"

After waiting for a while, nothing happened. It must be that the curse has been offset.

"I wonder where Penguin got this thing from."

Dean gently shook the Stone of Doom twice in his hand, and then held it in his hand.

"There are still 5600 points of exclamation points, which can be exchanged for that thing. System, open the mall."

The mall interface floated in front of Dean.

He quickly swiped the interface, found an item, and clicked to buy it.

“Redeem Hardside Cutter.”

"Hard surface cutter: It can cut freely on the surface of objects, but it is limited to hard surfaces synthesized from conventional substances in the universe. The thickness of the hard surface must be less than fifteen centimeters, and it cannot be effective on living things."

"Worth 4500 exclamation points."

The appearance of the hard-sided cutter is similar to the glass cutter commonly seen in ordinary movies. The disadvantage is that it is not very small and requires manual operation.

The advantage is that it is extremely sharp, with a diamond-level hardness that is no different from paper in front of it. Except for a few super metals with special properties and mysterious powers, it can cut through anything, and the cutting process still makes no sound.

The first time Dean saw the item, he was daunted by its price.

Even if he could barely buy it, he would still give priority to other exchange items.

But with each action, Dean increasingly believed that this hard-surface cutter must be an indispensable artifact for him.

Think about it, how many outrageous super materials there are in this world. Glass-like materials can even be far harder than diamond.

If these materials are used to make a container to protect the treasure, maybe even in a fully enclosed mode, then Dean will basically be helpless.

Dean has considered that he will definitely leave Gotham in the future and go out to develop. Facing all kinds of monsters and monsters in the DC world, no matter how outrageous the security equipment is, there must be existence.

Compared to that, bulletproof glass and the like are just dregs.

What can Dean do with the equipment then? I'm afraid they put the treasures inside and sealed them up without doing anything. They didn't even need to set up security guards and just let Dean mess with them.

I'm afraid he won't even be able to take things out from inside, so he can only stand there and stare.

Not to mention anything else, just for the last two crimes, Dean already had no good way to deal with the high-strength glass cover. He had to create an illusion to mislead others into thinking that the treasure had been stolen. In the end, everyone was attracted to it. After paying attention, come back to get the real treasure.

The success rate of this solution is pretty good, but in the end it's just a trick.

It's okay to play it a few times now and then, but over time it may become difficult to achieve the desired effect.

In fact, during this incident, Gordon had already begun to suspect that the Phantom Thief Kidd flying outside was fake. It would be difficult to deceive him in the future.

This means that Dean must have a means to break through the high-strength protective shield under normal circumstances. It can be used infrequently, but it must be available, and the best choice at present is this hard-surface cutter.

With the existence of the hard-surface cutter, Dean can ignore most of the protective materials in the universe. By then, even if Kaitou Kidd goes to aliens to commit crimes, it will be of some use.

It is foreseeable that hard surface cutters will not be eliminated for a long time in the future. On the other hand, the surveillance system jammer, which is currently the most useful, will be useless as soon as it leaves the earth.

To sum up, although the value of 4,500 points is expensive, it is actually worth every penny.

You know, a weapon with a similar description, such as a pistol that can penetrate all armor made of conventional materials in the universe, would cost at least seven to eight thousand points to buy.

This also made Dean discover that it seems that the exchange items with attack capabilities in the system are generally much more expensive than other items.

"Do you want to confirm the exchange?"

"confirm."

The 4,500 exclamation points were deducted, leaving 1,100 points in the deposit.

Bring up the personal panel.

Dean was slightly stunned when he saw the Stone of Doom in the inventory.

Then he realized that he was still thinking about what to do with the unknown stone, so the system determined that it belonged to Dean.

"So...what am I going to do with you little thing?"

Dean looked down at the Stone of Doom in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Why don't you give it back to Penguin and let him taste the consequences of his own misfortune?"

"Or should I just regard it as my first collection?"
