My Avatar is Becoming the Ultimate BOSS-Chapter 64 - 53: Theft

Clearly Blue Arc and Black Cocoon were in the same alley, less than ten meters apart, yet Black Cocoon didn’t directly speak to him.

Instead, he quietly sent a text message.

[Black Cocoon: Mr. Blue Arc, no need to thank me. I’ve always been generous with my collaborators. Consider this as feedback for the Welfare Institute incident last time.]

[Black Cocoon: Although "Da Zhonghou" and "Flying Ant" are not on a high wanted level on the official site, the high-level officials of different countries hate them to the bone, wishing they could personally rip apart this pair of rogue thieves.]

[Black Cocoon: So when you catch both of them now, I’m sure your evaluation by the United Nations will improve. Congratulations, you’re getting closer to entering the "Rainbow Wings".]

Blue Arc took out his phone and glanced at the contents of the message.

As Black Cocoon said, the Mutants Association is indeed highly focused on "Da Zhonghou" and "Flying Ant", so during the mission execution, Blue Arc’s communicator was always kept on.

At this moment, the high-level figures of the entire Li Jing branch are possibly listening in on his conversation with Swallowing Silver, waiting for their onsite report.

If he speaks with Black Cocoon now, the conversation will naturally fall into the ears of those big figures;

If he turns off the communicator, it would seem like covering one’s ears and stealing a bell.

Thus, texting becomes the best choice.

[Blue Arc: Go, Swallowing Silver is coming soon.]

[Black Cocoon: Got it, but I suggest you knock her out first. My restraint belt inhibits superpowers. If I release her, she might just turn into a little bee and fly away.]

Blue Arc silently approached Flying Ant, who was tied to the wall with the restraint belt, raised his hand, and with a speed too fast for the naked eye to see, struck a hand chop directly knocking her out.

"Clean and efficient."

Black Cocoon lightly whistled while praising and loosened the restraint belt binding Flying Ant, letting her slouch to the ground.

At this moment, a black and white panel suddenly popped up in Ji Minghuan’s eyes beneath the mask.

[Main Task 1 completed (Third Stage): Successfully cooperated for the first time with Mutant "Blue Arc", deepening mutual trust.]

[Task Rewards Acquired: 1 Split Point, 1 Skill Point, 1 Attribute Point.]

[Main Task 1 Updated: Help Mutant "Blue Arc" survive the "Tokyo Auction Operation".]

Staring at the new task content, Black Cocoon couldn’t help but tilt his head.

"...Huh?"

He dangled in mid-air, lifted his eyes from behind the mask, glanced at Blue Arc, then at the text on the panel.

Then he raised his finger, gently scratching his chin, thinking: "Really... dear brother, are you really going to get involved in the auction? Is my new alias still alive?"

Blue Arc picked up Flying Ant’s unconscious body from the ground, sending a message to Black Cocoon on his phone.

[Blue Arc: Not leaving yet? If Swallowing Silver comes, I won’t be able to release you in front of him.]

[Black Cocoon: Alright, alright, I’ll leave then.]

After sending the message, the restraint belt hanging Black Cocoon upside down under the air conditioning bottom plate slightly exerted force, pulling his figure upward.

He gracefully flipped mid-air, regained a standing position, tapping his feet on the railing like a flying man in a circus, instantly leaping to the rooftop of the residential building.

Meanwhile, he didn’t forget to text Blue Arc.

[Black Cocoon: Actually, I’m quite curious if her superpower is only shrinking her body, why do her clothes shrink along with her too? This seems more like a conceptual superpower...]

Before he finished typing the last word, the message was involuntarily sent out.

Because at this moment, the A-level Mutant "Swallowing Silver" had already arrived at the scene.

"You are the damn thing daring to mock me?!"

Swallowing Silver furiously shouted, with the flame thrusters on his back and legs at full power.

He charged straight toward Black Cocoon with arms extended and legs straight like the protagonist of the anime "Astro Boy", relying on the thrusters.

While playing with his phone, Black Cocoon casually said, "Mr. Swallowing Silver... if I were you, I’d go back to study the ’Mutant Basic Image Management’ course first, instead of coming out making a fool of myself."

He sighed: "You know, clingy men are the least charming."

At this moment, the veins on Swallowing Silver’s forehead were burst open, he fiercely bit the metal fragments in his palm, clasped his hands together, and a large steel cage formed in mid-air, instantly trapping Black Cocoon inside!

The cage’s grid was small, likely only allowing palm-sized small animals to escape.

"You’re finished." Swallowing Silver said, enunciating clearly, with a voice full of bitter hatred.

Blue Arc in the alley looked up and saw this scene, sighing lightly.

He deliberately ignored, picked up Flying Ant’s body from the ground, turned to leave the alley.

Black Cocoon in the cage asked: "How do I not know I’m finished?"

[Released superpower stored in the restraint belt—shrinking your body and all items carried, while growing a pair of dragonfly wings from your back. (Superpower Source: Superpower User "Flying Ant"）]

In the next instant, Black Cocoon’s body shrank more than ten times, becoming a small black dot wrapped in his tailcoat, with a pair of transparent thin wings growing from his back.

While playing Minesweeper on his phone, he slipped out through the iron cage’s grid.

"What?" Swallowing Silver was stunned.

He looked at Black Cocoon, then at Flying Ant being held by Blue Arc, momentarily suspecting whether Flying Ant switched to Black Cocoon’s clothes, attempting to deceive.

Blue Arc also paused, stopping his steps, glancing back at the sky.

He initially thought Black Cocoon couldn’t escape anymore, had already figured out how to cut ties with this guy in mind, unexpectedly the opponent had another trick.

Is this... power duplication? he wondered.

"Farewell, Mr. Swallowing Silver. Next time I’ll bring more batteries to feed you."

Leaving this remark, Black Cocoon hummed "I am a little bee, flying into the blossom" while vibrating his wings, diving into the steel jungle, disappearing into the colorful neon signs.

On the way home, he visited Broly Bookstore.

Black Cocoon hung upside down on the store’s ceiling, used the restraint belt to return the borrowed book "Misogyny" to the owner.

The bookstore owner received the book: "Quite timely."

Black Cocoon said without lifting his head: "Always."

After speaking, his body wrapped in the restraint belt became transparent and vanished instantly.

.....

.....

Five minutes later, Li Jing, Gu Yima District.

On the eaves of his home’s second floor, Ji Minghuan weakly crawled into the room through the wide-open floor-to-ceiling window.

His feet hit the ground, the invisibility state gradually lifted, and the restraint belt wrapping his body fell down like a dead snake onto the floor.

While taking off his tailcoat, he raised his hand to the side of his ear, pressing and holding the fixing button. The mask loosened from his face, falling with a click beside the wardrobe.

Just then, a "ding" sound from his phone indicated a received message.

Ji Minghuan sat on the bed, used the restraint belt to take out his phone from the coat pocket, and glanced at the message content.

[Blue Arc: Do you know the "White Crow Travel Brigade"?]

[Black Cocoon: Oh, I certainly know them.]

"After all, I’m a member." He silently commented in his heart.
