Chapter 218 Learn From Tony and Refreshed Abilities

As a matter of fact, Tony would’ve lost even if the game had continued. However, it was obviously a trap since Luke kept the balance on his bank card a secret and proposed to end the game once he won a million dollars.

As long as Luke won just once, Tony would lose 1.4 million dollars, even if Luke didn’t get blackjack, and the game would end.

Why did Luke have six hundred thousand dollars on his card? It was the remainder of the loan that he had taken out by mortgaging the villa which Takagi gave to him.

Luke had taken out an eight hundred-thousand-dollar loan. He had spent more than a hundred thousand on the patent application and legal matters, and he had less than seven hundred thousand dollars left.

Without that money, it would’ve been difficult for Luke to win a fortune here. Chances were that he would be blacklisted by the hotels in Vegas.

The MIT students who had made a great deal of money with their brains, for example, were blacklisted by the casinos here. This decision was even upheld by the court.

Selina’s mouth dropped open. A long time later, she finally said, “...That doesn’t feel right. Why are you still richer than me?”

Luke rolled his eyes. “When have you ever been richer than me? The furniture and appliances in the villa that Takagi gave me are already worth more than 1.2 million, alright? Also, don’t forget that you have to pay a tax on the money you just earned.”

Selina was frustrated. “Ah, I forgot about that.”

Luke thought for a moment, then said in a low voice, “Keep some of your prize for yourself, and give the rest to me to invest.”

Selina nodded, but found it odd. “Invest in what?”

Luke said, “I’m starting a high-tech business, and hopefully, I’ll earn some money from Google. It’ll pay well if you buy some shares now.”

Selina nodded and said, “How much do you want? I can give all the money to you.”

Luke shook his head. “I don’t need so much. Let’s talk about that later.”

Bobby had a 1% share in the company, so it wouldn’t be too much if Luke gave Selina a 5% share, right?

Tony had paid a huge price to get Luke and Selina transferred to LAPD because he was interested in Selina. So, Luke definitely had every reason to give Selina some money.

Tony didn’t have a good temper, but he was a generous man. Why else would all the transmigrators go to him for help?

Why did nobody go to Obadiah? It certainly wasn’t because he was ugly, but because Obadiah was too shrewd and would hardly ever give anybody a large sum of money for no good reason.

Luke was determined to be as rich and willful as Tony Stark.

Even though he wasn’t as rich as Tony yet, he could solve some of Selina’s practical problems with a small amount of money, so why wouldn’t he?

Selina’s attitude toward money was complicated.

On one hand, she could compare supermarket prices fastidiously, but on the other hand, she could easily give Luke half of her money, just like that.

Actually, there weren’t many things that she needed to buy, as a detective who was busy every day.

She stayed away from alcohol and drugs. Her clothes and makeup were simple. She was hardly ever home, so she didn’t need much furniture.

Her only hobby was eating, but Luke always made food for her.

She wasn’t short of money. Luke had been paying the bills with the illegal money he had obtained. She had barely touched her paychecks in the last few months.

Luke tried to approach the corner where Tony and the woman had been talking just now, only to be stopped by the two security guards there.

But he was still able to detect more of the smell, and discovered that the woman did leave through the air, but not necessarily by flying

Based on the trajectory of her scent, it was more likely that she had jumped off and glided downward, except that she had leapt an unbelievable distance.

Luke wondered what Tony and the woman had talked about in this place.

Mulling it over for a bit, Luke sat down and checked the list of Tony’s abilities in the system, only to find that nothing had changed.

He tried to talk to the system, but the system didn’t respond.

Luke wasn’t disappointed. He thought for a moment with his eyes closed, then smiled.

While Tony’s abilities seemed the same, they had actually been refreshed.

Luke had wondered about this before.

For example, what would happen when he defeated the superheroes or villains who had yet to grasp their abilities?

Tony had now given Luke the answer.

When Luke considered the creation and modification of certain equipment, something popped up in his head.

To be more exact, it felt like new knowledge had suddenly been added to a database, ready for retrieval.

The new knowledge was about an additional 5% on top of what Luke already knew about Tony’s four abilities. It was all invaluable knowledge on cutting-edge technology.

On the other hand, Luke considered how frequently he should refresh Tony’s abilities.

It would be unnecessary to do it too often, since Tony wouldn’t learn so many new abilities over a short period of time.

Since there was only a 5% increase of new knowledge after three months, Luke felt that refreshing the abilities twice by 2008 would be enough.

As he pondered, Selina had had enough fun, so they left the swimming pool.

After showering in their suite, they didn’t go to the casino again but watched the free show presented by Aurora Hotel.

The show was quite spectacular, even for Luke, who had seen plenty of shows online in his previous life.

There were dances, juggling, and magic and talk shows, all performed by famous names.

The show was coming to a perfect close, when there was a mishap during a dance which was the last segment of the show.

Countless white, flying ribbons hung above the stage. A dozen beautiful and graceful dancers swung among the ribbons with jaw-dropping moves and postures, like fairies flying in the air.

It was a really creative dance.
