The only player in the Marvel universe

Chapter 98 Very good, man, you have successfully caught my attention.
As Du Mu had predicted, after inviting Charles to join the fraternity, Raven joined without hesitation.

She also suggested changing the fraternity to a sorority, but Du Mu rejected the idea outright, stating that the guild wouldn't engage in gender antagonism.

During the conversation, Charles inquired about Du Mu's identity.

Fortunately, Du Mu was not an unregistered person. Just like at the beginning of the game, the game system prepared a brand new identity for him.

Agents of the Central Intelligence Agency of the United States, or CIA for short!

Du Mu was very familiar with this identity, after all, he had used this title to shift the blame to the CIA many times before.

Charles seemed somewhat surprised upon learning Du Mu's identity, not expecting that a mutant could work in such a government agency.

Charles asked in surprise, "If you're from the CIA, why don't you have any money on you?"

Du Mu's expression remained unchanged, and he immediately said, "There's nothing I can do. The higher-ups are inhumane. They keep delaying my salary and refuse to pay it. To be honest, I was kicked out because I couldn't pay the rent, and now I have to sleep on the streets."

The last sentence wasn't a lie; he discovered that the game system hadn't arranged any accommodation for him at all.

"Your superiors are really inhuman."

Charles felt some sympathy for Du Mu and thought for a moment before saying, "If you don't mind, you can stay at my house for a while. My house is quite big anyway."

"do not mind!"

Du Mu was worried about having nowhere to stay, so he readily agreed.

Charles turned to Raven: "Raven, what do you think?"

"I do not mind."

Raven didn't mind, nor was she worried that having a strange man in her home would be inconvenient.

Even if a man has designs on her, she can transform into a bearded man at any time, with an erection bigger than his. Who knows who will end up stabbing whom then?

Of course, this is also thanks to Du Mu's mutant identity.

As the second mutant Charles and Raven had encountered in many years, they were quite fond of Dumu; otherwise, they wouldn't have been so enthusiastic.

After the three finished their meal and drinks, they were about to leave the restaurant when they were stopped, told that the bill had not yet been settled.

Charles was puzzled. He had clearly paid for the meal and given a generous tip, so how could he not have given enough?
After some questioning, they finally understood that the table Du Mu had broken with his magic sword was a custom-made piece of expensive solid wood, and the compensation was much more expensive than their meal.

Charles: "."

Fortunately, Charles was not lying.

He is indeed rich, and not just rich in the ordinary!

Charles easily paid the compensation, and then drove a vintage luxury car with Du Mu to a large, ancient manor.

According to Charles, the entire estate, including the buildings and woodland, belongs to his family.

Upon hearing this, Du Mu gasped. He had underestimated Charles's financial power. Luckily, Charles wasn't on his main server, otherwise the other party would have broken the universal law that the poor rely on mutations and the rich rely on technology.

She has both money and superpowers, is an orphan, and has a half-sister named Raven.

Charles is practically a protagonist from a novel with an overpowered destiny!
"Damn capitalism!"

While Du Mu was criticizing with righteous indignation, his body was quite honest as he lay down on the luxurious bed in the guest room that Charles had prepared for him, and rolled around happily for a couple of minutes.

That old man, all he knows is how to corrupt people with this kind of hedonism. I'll give him a good talking to when I see him tomorrow!

However, the next morning, Du Mu sat at the dining table enjoying a sumptuous breakfast, having completely forgotten what he had said the day before.

He swirled the milk in his glass and said in a serious tone, "Old Cha, I've realized that our guild currently has far too few members. We must recruit new talent as soon as possible."

Are you only realizing this now?

Charles was speechless for a moment.

He originally thought he was just an ordinary new member, but he never expected to turn out to be a core member who joined with funds and technology.

"So how do we recruit new people?" Charles asked.

Mutants are usually very low-key, and you can't tell from their appearance unless they use their abilities. People as high-profile as Du Mu are extremely rare.

"Isn't that simple? Of course, just advertise in the newspaper!" Du Mu said matter-of-factly.

Charles: "."

Do you think this is a job posting in the newspaper? It's so blatant!
Charles immediately rejected the proposal.

In his view, the matter of mutants is ultimately a sensitive one, and it is best to be discreet and cautious when recruiting members.

The two thought and thought, but still couldn't come up with a good solution.

Unless Charles himself takes action and uses his telepathic abilities to search for mutants, which unfortunately Charles is unwilling to do, it would be no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

Of course, Dumu could also search for mutants by checking his personal panel, but he shared Charles's opinion and would never do such a chore.

Du Mu decided to leave the problem to Charles to figure out, while he planned to return to CIA headquarters, hoping that with the CIA's resources, he could find other ways to track down mutants.

Following the game system's instructions, Du Mu randomly stole a luxury car parked outside, the owner of which was unknown, and drove all the way to the CIA headquarters.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw a capable-looking woman walking straight toward him.

"Detective Du Mu, you've come at the right time, we have a mission."

[NPC: Mora Maktagut]

【Favourability: 0】

[Comment: CIA agent, Charles Xavier's old flame]

Du Mu's lips twitched slightly.

What kind of life winner is Charles? How come he can just randomly bump into any female NPC with a decent model and end up having an affair with her?

"What mission?"

Du Mu blurted it out almost instinctively.

Only after he finished speaking did he realize that this was a dungeon, not S.H.I.E.L.D.

Mora, oblivious to his odd behavior, said, "We're heading to Las Vegas to monitor a club called Hellfire."

[NPC Mora Maktagt has given you a new quest]

[Quest: Hellfire Club]

Objective: Investigate the Hellfire Club and assist Mora's operations.

[Reward: 2000 Experience Points, 1 Anchor Point Fragments]

You can actually trigger quests in dungeons?

Du Mu was somewhat surprised.

But then he noticed something new and asked, "System, what is this anchor point fragment?"

Collect enough anchor fragments to place teleportation anchors in dungeons or other servers, allowing players to teleport across servers at any time.

"There are such good things."

Du Mu's eyes lit up immediately.

In that case, wouldn't he be able to freely teleport between different servers?

He immediately pressed on, "How many anchor fragments are needed to synthesize a teleportation anchor?"

[20 Anchor Point Fragments]

"So many, it seems setting up a teleportation anchor point won't be easy," Du Mu muttered to himself.

Even if you manage to create a teleportation anchor point, you still need to choose the most valuable server to place it on, otherwise it will be a complete waste.

Seeing the tempting reward, Du Mu immediately accepted the mission and set off for Las Vegas with Mora.

As for the main quest, it's not too late to move on to it when he returns.

Las Vegas!
This city, famous for its gambling industry, is permeated with an atmosphere of extravagance and debauchery.

The Hellfire Club that Mora mentioned is, on the surface, a high-end membership venue that is only open to wealthy businessmen and celebrities.

However, according to CIA intelligence, the club is very likely a base of some secret organization, and the frequent mysterious gatherings held there have long attracted the attention of higher authorities.

Du Mu and Mora's mission this time is to find out the mastermind behind the Hellfire Club and the organization hidden behind it.

A car was parked not far from the Hellfire Club.

Inside the car, Mora was intently observing the movement at the entrance with binoculars, while Du Mu was slacking off nearby. The two had a clear division of labor and neither disturbed the other.

Suddenly, Mora lowered her voice and said, "Something's wrong. That's Colonel Hendry. What's he doing here?"

Du Mu asked cooperatively, "Who is he?"

"A high-ranking NATO officer."

"Oh! It was him!"

Du Mu feigned surprise, but in reality, he didn't know the other person at all; as long as he provided emotional value, that was enough.

Mora said gravely, “If someone of his caliber is here, there’s definitely something wrong with the Hellfire Club!”

"Should we just charge in?"

Du Mu pulled out the Golden Desert Eagle from behind his back, his expression solemn.

Mora quickly stopped him, saying, "Of course not! We don't know the situation inside yet. Acting rashly will only alert them. I plan to sneak in and investigate first." Du Mu blinked, indicating that they meant the same thing.

As she spoke, Mora suddenly took off her coat, leaving only a very revealing black lace outfit.

"Agent Mora, we just met, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Du Mu was immediately startled, his eyes widening in shock.

Mora said speechlessly, "What are you talking about? This Hellfire Club has a party where all female guests can only wear underwear to enter. I just prepared in advance."

"So you've been wearing this outfit on missions the whole time?"

Du Mu secretly admired Mora's high level of professionalism, but then, remembering the difference between men and women, he decided to only glance at her and stared at her without blinking.

Soon, they saw a large group of ragged women heading toward the Hellfire Club.

Du Mu immediately became alert. With the spirit of not letting go of any clues, he snatched Mora's binoculars and carefully observed for a while before he could barely find some fabric between her buttocks.

They all seem to have quite a story to tell; they might all have a gambling father, a sick mother, and a younger brother in college to support.

"I'll go in and investigate first, then come and get me if there's any situation."

Mora left a message and opened the car door to blend into the group.

However, Du Mu felt it wasn't safe for her to barge in alone; it might easily turn into a story about a female investigator.

After all, the other party was Charles's old lover. With the idea of ​​not making things harder for Charles, Du Mu quickly and secretly installed a miniature listening device on the edge of Mora's underwear before she left.

This is cutting-edge technology from S.H.I.E.L.D., with extremely high concealment; in this era, there's no need to worry about being discovered.

As soon as the listening device was attached, Du Mu heard clear ambient sounds and witnessed Mora following the team into the Hellfire Club.

He leaned back in his car seat, listening to what Mora was doing while glancing out the window at the people, hoping to spot a wild mutant.

Unfortunately, there were very few mutants. Du Mu looked for a long time but couldn't find a single NPC with a code name.

Just then, an unusual noise suddenly came through the listening device; it seemed that something had happened to Mora.

Du Mu immediately stepped out of the carriage, and at the same time, a ladder appeared out of thin air in his hand.

[Item: Ladder for Free Access (With this ladder, you can enter any area without encountering any obstacles)]

Du Mu carried the ladder and headed straight for the entrance of the Hellfire Club.

The two burly men guarding the gate merely glanced at him and made no attempt to stop him, allowing Du Mu to swagger into the club.

The Hellfire Club was a place of extravagance, filled with the mingled scents of smoke, alcohol, and perfume.

Expensive-dressed dignitaries conversed in hushed tones, while ragged women moved among them, creating a scene of decadent extravagance.

Du Mu put away the ladder and instantly changed into a glamorous suit.

Without Tony's approachable buff to suppress them this time, they quickly attracted several vicious women.

"Hey, you look unfamiliar. What do you do?"

Several women clung to Du Mu. The club was full of high-ranking officials and nobles, and getting involved with just one of them would be enough to ensure they would live a life of comfort for the rest of their lives.

Charismatic men like Du Mu were highly sought after, second only to white-haired old men who didn't have many years left to live.

Du Mu chuckled and said, "I work for the IRS. By the way, do you pay taxes for this?"

The girls: "."

Meanwhile, Mora followed Colonel Hendry and found the secret passage of the Hellfire Club, entering a private study.

As she was quietly searching for information, she unexpectedly discovered a secret room hidden behind the bookshelf, where several people were talking in hushed tones.

Through the crack in the door, Mora overheard them discussing the deployment of ballistic missiles within the territory of a certain country. As a conservative who opposed radical strategies, Colonel Hendry immediately voiced his opposition.

As a result, one of them summoned a small tornado, which blew Colonel Hendry away.

Then another woman in white turned into a diamond and summoned a man covered in red who looked like a devil. A group of strange creatures surrounded Colonel Hendry, frightening him into standing still.

Under the threat of the leading man in black, Colonel Hendry finally relented, saying that it was not unacceptable to be radical once in a while.

Mora stared in disbelief at the scene before her; these people's abilities were completely beyond her comprehension.

However, at that moment, the white-clad woman who had transformed into a diamond suddenly turned in her direction and chuckled, "It seems we have gained a guest."

Oops, we’ve been discovered!
Mora was startled and decisively turned and ran away.

But before she could run a few steps, a flash of red light appeared before her eyes, and the crimson demon instantly teleported in front of her, completely blocking her way.

Mora was immediately plunged into despair.

She had nowhere to carry weapons and was completely powerless to fight back. Besides, her superiors hadn't mentioned that they were there to investigate demons before the mission began.

If she had known this would happen, she should have at least brought a cross and holy water, or at the very least, eaten some garlic before coming.

The bookshelf slowly moved aside, and the people in the secret room walked out one after another.

The man in black at the head of the group looked at Mora and chuckled, "Madam, eavesdropping is not a good habit."

The woman in white beside her added, "She's a CIA agent sent to investigate the club, and one of her colleagues is outside."

Mora was horrified.

Not only did the other party instantly recognize her identity, but they also knew everything about Du Mu, who was lurking outside the club.

Upon hearing this, the man in black ordered the red demon beside him, "Go and deal with that person outside. As for this human, eliminate her as well. We can't let her reveal our plan."

"clear."

The red devil nodded expressionlessly.

He turned to stare at Mora, a tail with a sharp arrowhead at the end rising from behind him, aiming straight for Mora's throat.

"Hey, look here."

A voice rang out from not far away.

Everyone instinctively turned their heads to look, and were immediately enveloped by a blinding light!

"what!!"

The red devil was closest and saw it clearly. He immediately let out a scream and covered his eyes tightly with both hands.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Du Mu kicked the Red Devil away in one swift step. The Red Devil crashed heavily into the wall, creating a crater. Then, he picked up the equally blind Mora and quickly retreated through the hole he had made with his diamond pickaxe.

He glanced around and discovered that most of the people on the field were mutants, with the man in black being the most powerful.

[NPC: Sebastian Shaw]

Codename: Black Emperor

【Favourability: 10】

[Comment: An extreme mutant, founder of the Hellfire Club, possessing the ability to absorb and release all energy, including nuclear bombs.]

Du Mu was a man who had lived through nuclear bombings, so he naturally knew how powerful a nuclear explosion could be.

And the Sebastian in front of us can even absorb the energy of a nuclear bomb!

Clearly, this person is also incredibly lucky to have drawn a legendary gold item, and a particularly lucky one at that.

The ability to absorb all energy means that most attacks are completely ineffective against him!

Unless you defeat the system with the system, it's almost impossible to defeat such an opponent, not to mention that he has several mutants with different abilities by his side.

Du Mu did not hesitate to choose a tactical retreat, deciding to get Mora out first.

Sebastian was unaffected by the flash.

He gazed with interest in the direction Du Mu had left, and chuckled softly, "I never expected to run into one of our kind."

"My abilities don't seem to work on that person."

The woman in white, who was in diamond form, was not affected by the strong light and showed a look of shock on her face.

The woman in white is called the White Queen. In addition to being covered in diamonds, she also possesses telepathic abilities similar to Charles's.

Unlike Charles, the White Queen never restrained her abilities. From the moment Du Mu appeared, she attempted to control him through telepathy.

However, she found that her abilities had no effect whatsoever, as if they had sunk into the sea.

"interesting."

Sebastian narrowed his eyes, indicating that the man had successfully caught his attention.

"Are we going to catch up?"

The mutant who could control tornadoes immediately asked for instructions.

Sebastian glanced at the other man and thought he was not worth using.

Can't you see this is their territory?

If a fight breaks out, and things are damaged or the dignitaries outside are frightened, they themselves will ultimately suffer the consequences.

But considering that mutants are already scarce, it's okay if they're a bit stupid; at least they can still maintain appearances.

"No need. Even if they leak the plan, no one will believe it."

Sebastian waved his hand and continued, "Also, send someone to find out about that man's background. I need all his information."
