[Zhongyingmei] I use the card to save the world

The training method suggested by Charles does not need to be practiced at Xavier Academy all the time. In order to view the internal structure drawings of the shelter rewarded by the system as soon as possible, Ian rejected Charles' invitation to let her stay for one night, but chose to let Quicksilver send her home.

Well, in fact, the main reason is that she is afraid of any side effects of the princess heart, and she doesn't want to experience the thrill of becoming Snow White again.

"System, is this special task completed?" Ian asked the system hastily, still thinking about the internal structure drawings of the shelter.

[Special task - never-ending learning (completed)

Task description: Go to Professor X for advice on how to use your abilities.

[Task Reward: Interior Decoration Blueprint of Monster Shelter*1]

A virtual monster shelter model is projected in front of Ian, and as she clicks, the internal structure will be revealed little by little.

After she finished checking, the model turned into a stack of drawings and landed on the table, which recorded the materials needed for the building in detail, and even marked the number of people who needed to be stationed at the door of each containment room.

"System, help me send the blueprint to Tony." Ian checked the blueprint briefly, and found that it was generally similar to the shelter in her original world, but there were some changes in the details.

[No problem, but I hope you can do one thing for me too] The tone of the system is very serious.

"What?" Did something happen again?

[Give a fresh coat of paint to the wardrobe]

Ian:? ? ?

Wardrobe: [Hey!That's right, it's me!I want pink!Thanks! ]

"Why did you suddenly change the color?" Ian was a little puzzled.

Wardrobe: [I've wanted to change clothes for a long time, this is the bet that Mr. System and I agreed upon!It's not very lucky, it didn't win a game]

Ian suddenly remembered what the system told her when she was at Xavier Academy for Gifted Youth, "Didn't you say you were going to upgrade?! Why are you playing cards with them again!"

[Ahem, this was an accident, an accident...] The system said with a lack of confidence, and then seemed to remember something, and suddenly became confident again.

[And I also need your assistance to upgrade, I can't upgrade if you don't do the task!How can this be my fault! 】

As if to prove his words, the system rummaged through the database and threw out a task.

A blue light curtain is projected in mid-air.

【Special tasks have been released】

[Special Mission - Crying Mask

mission details:

"What is this?" The decadent man looked at the white ceramic mask on the side of the road, his inexplicable consciousness made him a little trance, and he walked towards the mask uncontrollably.

pick up, put on...

"Want to chat with me?" The masked man turned around and looked at the crowd around him, his voice became magnetic and charming.

The crowd slowly approached him, completely ignoring the black viscous liquid dripping from the eyes of the mask.

Mission Tip: Gotham]

[Task Reward: System Upgrade - Card Slot Expansion*2, Card Draw*2]

Seeing this mission, Ian fell into silence. She looked at the mission introduction again and again in disbelief. The familiar description of this mission scared her.

The mask, the black viscous liquid left behind the eyes......

This fucking is occupying the mask! ! !Why is this thing here! ! ! !

"System, tell me, this is not occupying the mask, right?" Ian's voice was trembling.

Occupying the mask is also a member of the containment, and it is not a harmless safe category like the universal coffee machine, its item category is keter.

The subjective aggression of this containment is very strong. When you look at it, or within 5-6 feet of it, you will have a strong urge to wear it.

Once someone puts on the occupying mask, the mask will directly kill that person's brain waves, resulting in brain death, and that person's body will be controlled by the occupying mask.

[Although I want to comfort you and say no, this is occupying the mask]

[But the good news is that it has just landed in Gotham, and it is still wandering around, without causing too many casualties]

This can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune, Ian comforted himself, and at the same time noticed the task reward.

"Two more card slots? Does that mean I can use three abilities at the same time?" Ian asked.

The system originally had only one card slot, which meant that Ian could only use one ability at a time. If he wanted to use another ability, he had to remove the original ability card.

She hasn't met a too strong opponent yet, and one card slot is enough, but when she fights with weirder contained objects in the future, the time she needs to change cards will become her weakness.

[Yes, please host to complete the system upgrade task as soon as possible]

"...Can I refuse?" Ian said desperately, she really didn't want to face the mask, it would be a nightmare, okay?

【What do you think? 】

………………

In Gotham, there is a dark alley next to a luxurious bar. The quiet environment is in stark contrast to the bars not far away.

In Gotham, alleys like this represent some kind of shady business, crime, and...death.

The raised corner of the black cloak skipped over the corner of the alley. The man touched the mask on his face, and the black viscous liquid slid down from his eyes and landed on the ground drop by drop.

"Gotham..." The magnetic voice came from behind the mask, with a hint of banter.

"Interesting city, interesting world..."

He walked out of the alley slowly, his movements were a little stiff, the wide black robe covered his whole body, and only his fingertips could be seen slightly.Lean and rotting like a mummy.

Potholes were corroded where the black viscous liquid fell, and in the innermost part of the alley lay a person who didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

"Ha, that idiot Pound really believed in this gamble. How did he survive in Gotham? Let me teach him not to trust others casually, hahahaha." He took a flavored cigarette and lit the banknotes in his hand.

He and his companions set up a game in the bar, specializing in those idiots who dreamed of getting rich overnight.

"He understands very well, if he wasn't in a hurry to use the money, how could he come to us, but it is true that he is stupid." The vest man's accomplice patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, the money is in hand Let's go back quickly before we run into those lunatics from Arkham again."

"Fuck, don't mention this to me. I was introduced to the clown last time, saying that I was going to rob a bank. Who the hell would have thought that I was lying to me again. The clown left after blowing up the bank. Next, our brothers were captured by Batman, and I spent a lot of effort to escape from prison, not to mention that I didn’t get any money, but I got a lot of it.”

"You still believe what that lunatic said, let me tell you..."

"Gentlemen, may I ask you something?" A skinny hand hidden under a black robe stopped in front of them.

The vest man raised his head impatiently, and became vigilant the moment he saw the man in black robe, "Who are you!"

"Ha, look at your cowardice." The accomplice laughed, he saw the nervousness of the man in the vest, but he didn't care.

After all, in his opinion, it was impossible for the thin man in black robe in front of him to beat him and the man in vest.

The man in the black robe gave a low laugh, and raised his head that had been hanging all along. There was black mucus on the porcelain white mask.

"Can you introduce me to this city?"

The two people with bad attitudes were stunned the moment they saw the mask, and their tone became more relaxed, "Okay, okay, I'm glad I can help you."

"You don't mind taking me to your house for a while." The man in black robe asked again.

"Of course, it's our honor."

The three of them walked on the streets of Gotham, joking and talking, like friends who had known each other for a long time, and the atmosphere was strangely peaceful.

………………

The sooner the matter of occupying the mask is resolved, the better. After Ian took over the task, he asked the system to help her book a plane ticket to Gotham online.

Then he started walking around the room.

[Host, what are you doing? 】

Seeing the bewildering behavior of its own host, the system couldn't help asking.

"I'm thinking about how I will resist the mask's bewitching ability. My God, I don't have any protective measures now, so how will I recover the mask then!" Ian is impatient now.

There is nothing in her ability that can be used for this mission, so what should she do.

Whenever Ian was particularly irritable, he would start to move around non-stop.

【You don't need to look at that mask】The system suggested.

"But as long as you get close to that mask, you will be bewitched. Does it mean that I want to fetch things from the air?"

【…】

[Ah, I seem to have forgotten to tell you, this is just the projection that occupies the mask, so it is not as powerful as the main body]

[You will not be bewitched if you get close to it, you will only be affected if you stare at the mask itself for more than 10 seconds]

Hearing the system's words, Ian's heart that was hanging in the air suddenly settled down. If this is the case, it's okay to say that what he fears most is the situation of the main body.

When Ian was in the original world, he did not participate in the containment process of occupying the mask, but only heard a little about it from his colleagues.

It is said that every time the containment room is cleaned for the occupation of the mask, those responsible for the cleaning must go for a psychological test after the cleaning, so as not to be affected by the mask.

In the past, the asylum didn't pay much attention to this aspect. It wasn't until a group of researchers helped it escape by occupying the mask once that it attracted the attention of the asylum.

"Forget it, let's talk about it when we go to Gotham tomorrow. It's useless to think about it now." Ian sighed. Gotham is so big, and he doesn't know when he can find the mask.

"System, help me send a message to Charles, saying that I have something to do these two days and I can't go to him to check the training results. I will go after I finish my work in two days."

【no problem】

She spread out on the sofa and fumbled for the snack bag on the coffee table. In this cruel and ruthless world, only potato chips and Coke could bring her a little comfort.

[Ian, come and have dinner!No more snacking! ] With a "ding" sound from the microwave oven, the heated food was delivered to the table.

Ian froze his hand touching the potato chips, "Okay, okay."
