Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 29 Opening the Blind Box
Luca's proposed program modifications were certainly not as simple as just changing voice commands.

As mentioned before, [Baymax] is not just a simple medical robot.

With just a few adjustments, it can also be quite adept at combat.

Considering that inputting combat information, modifying some commands, and creating external armor for Big White would all take a lot of time, Luca thought for a moment and decided to wait and do it later.

What he wants to do right now is naturally...
"Big White, come help me open this package!"

Looking at the densely packed pile of odds and ends in the living room, Luca himself felt a bit of a headache.

'This mess of stuff looks like opening a blind box.'

Big White, who had been given the order by Luca, tilted his head in confusion and looked at Luca with bewilderment.

"There is no 'open package' command in my database."

"Hmm, it's okay. Watch my next move, learn it first, and then I'll help you."

Upon hearing this, Da Bai immediately stood up straight, his big eyes fixed on Luca's every move.

(●—●)

In fact, most of the items in the living room at this time were everyday necessities that Luca casually mentioned and then had his subordinates go out to place orders for.

From firearms and ammunition to infant toys and various electronic products.

In short, Luca would just browse online for a bit, and whatever he saw, he would simply have someone place an order or buy it from a physical store.

As for the small portion, it was based on Luca's own recollection of the technological gadgets he had seen in movies and anime from his previous life, which he speculated might be 'core components'.

Things like Poké Ball toys, props and accessories for certain cosplay outfits, or glasses and watches are often given a high-tech attribute in movies and TV shows.

However, Luca himself didn't really have high hopes that even one of these things could trigger the cheat code.

Let's take shoes as an example again.

If Luca hadn't yet synthesized the [Strength-Enhancing Shoes], the chances of triggering his cheat ability with just one or two pairs of shoes bought by his subordinates were far too slim.

Fortunately, money is a minor issue.

All Luca had to do was open the package and see if there was anything glowing inside.

Moreover, most of these items in the living room are either unpackaged or already in transparent packaging. A quick glance is enough to tell that they are not 'core components'.

This also greatly reduced his actual workload.

"However, if there is a next time, I'll just have them unpack the entire package and deliver it to me."

"Do you need me to contact someone else to help you solve this problem?" (●—●)

"Uh, it's nothing, I was just talking to myself."

After all, this was the first time he had done something like this, and Luca himself hadn't quite gotten used to the mindset of a wealthy capitalist yet; he had only been thinking about personally confirming this point.

"Never mind, let's get these things sorted out first."

As he spoke, Luca walked first to the largest package in the living room.

The rectangular hardboard packaging, which is a little over two meters long, looks like a flat door panel at first glance.

Well, actually it's just a door panel.

This is what Luca saw online: a pure wood framed pink wooden door, which, according to the seller, could be used as a bedroom door for a young girl.

When I first said I wanted to buy this door, Samira stared at me with a strange look for a long time.

However, the reason Luca wanted to buy it and try it out was naturally because its design was too similar to Doraemon's Anywhere Door.

Even though this product is so convenient and easy to use, Luca doubted that he could gather the necessary materials for its synthesis. But one must always have dreams, right?

"Uh, it really doesn't work?" Without even opening it completely, just by tearing open a corner of the packaging, Luca was already able to confirm that there was no white light at all.

'Why do I feel a little unwilling? Perhaps I should go back to the manufacturer's warehouse to take another look?'

Thinking about it, if it were Tony Stark, he would probably just buy the manufacturing plant and have them work day and night to produce it.

Luca then realized that he was indeed not rich enough.

With a hint of disappointment, he looked at the other items again.

"Poké Ball, no! Capsule, no! White Pocket, no!"

"Big White, catch!"

He took out another utility knife and casually tossed it to Big White.

Seeing it carefully grasp the utility knife and clumsily mimic his movements, Luca's mood immediately improved considerably.

However, this good mood did not last long.

"Backpack, no! No, no!"

After opening dozens of packages and inspecting all the 'junk' that Luca thought might be related to spatial items, not a single one was 'the winner'.

"As expected, anything involving blind boxes only ends up being disappointing!"

"Your emotions seem to be fluctuating. Please provide me with relevant psychological counseling materials as soon as possible." (●—●)

Seeing Luca helplessly throw the utility knife on the ground, Baymax, whose movements were becoming increasingly skilled, immediately stopped and looked over.

"Uh, it's okay, let's get to work."

Just as Luca, who was suffering a series of setbacks, lost all hope and was preparing to transform into a ruthless delivery robot,

Suddenly, I noticed that in Big White's chubby hands, he was carefully holding a long, rectangular box that had just been opened.

"Wait! What is this?!"

"This is a delivery." (●—●)

Ignoring Big White's nonsense, Luca, who had been somewhat numb, immediately and swiftly retrieved the box.

"Damn it, it's finally shipped!"

"Well done, Baymax!" Luca said, giving Baymax a thumbs up.

Big White looked at his empty, chubby hands, then at Luca, who was suddenly excited for some reason, and blinked his round eyes inexplicably.

Unaware of Luca's glare, Luca's attention was now entirely focused on the box in his hand.

Well, it wasn't a box, but rather a pair of black half-rimmed glasses sitting quietly inside a long, rectangular glasses case.

Reaching out, he took out the black-rimmed glasses that emitted a faint glow, and a pale blue panel quickly popped out.
