Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics.

Chapter 163 Wow!golden legend
"Congratulations to the host for completing the custom task - stealing the 'Ocean Gem'

Task Difficulty: Difficult
Treasure value: Common (a special ore from the ocean kingdom of Atlantis, with a certain amount of magical adaptability)
Gorgeous level: A
Comprehensive evaluation: A+ (Exquisite performance and flexible use of props make you get a higher evaluation.)
Reward obtained: 30172 exclamation points (from the stadium audience, GCPD police, Jim Gordon, Robin...) + 2400 exclamation points (fixed for completing the mission)."

"Complete the additional goal: steal the 'Bat Lamp', and receive an additional reward of 3000 exclamation points."

"The account balance is 235 exclamation points, with a total of 35807 exclamation points."

Hearing the system's notification sound in his ears, Dean couldn't help showing a look of joy on his face.

This wave really made a lot of money!

The Cavaliers Stadium, which can accommodate 3 people, is full of seats, which directly brought Dean more than 3 surprise points of income.

Excluding the amazement points obtained from the audience, the automatic rewards for completing tasks have also risen to 2400 points.

What Dean didn't expect was that he even got an extra [-] points for stealing the Bat Lamp.

The main reason why he stole the bat light in the first place was that it took time to remove the gemstone from the bat symbol with a hard-faced cutter, and it would be too dangerous to cut it in front of Robin and GCPD.

Therefore, it is a better choice to hide the bat light and then perform cutting work.

Of course, the topicality and drama created by changing the bat lamp are also within Dean's consideration.

Nearly [-] exclamation points. Ever since Dean obtained the system, he has never seen so many exclamation points. This time he can finally squander it.

I gritted my teeth and spent the balance until there were only more than 200 points left, and I did nothing wrong. As the saying goes, only those who dare to surrender everything can get everything.

"What should I exchange for..."

Dean suddenly had a huge sum of money in his hand, and Dean, who had always been on a tight budget, didn't know how to spend it.

Before, the situation in Gotham was relatively stable, and he didn't offend any particularly powerful enemies. Even though the Penguin had been trying to plot against him, the methods he used were actually very restrained.

As a Gotham native, Dean has personally experienced the most glorious period of Penguin, which is the first two years after Batman and Robin's debut after Falcone's downfall.

At that time, Scarecrow, Killer Crocodile, Mudface, Mad Hatter, Deadshot, Solomon Grandy... Many famous super villains in Gotham were working under Penguin.

Although they went their separate ways many years ago, and even several of them went to prison or Arkham, they haven't been released yet.

But if Penguin is really determined to pay a lot of money to kill someone, Dean believes that he can hire these super villains back in minutes.

But the Penguin didn't do that before, which at least shows that his murderous intentions towards Kaitou Kidd haven't reached a deep level.

This is also the reason why Phantom Thief Kidd has been relatively smooth in Gotham during this period of time. So far, Dean has indeed not encountered any troublesome characters.

Like Firefly and Man-Bat, they, like Kaitou Kidd, are newcomers who just debuted this year, and they didn't cause Dean any big difficulties.

All in all, before this incident, Dean was able to complete the stealing performance relatively easily even without relying on the powerful props given by the system.

But things are different now.

Bruce Wayne publicly challenged Kaito Kidd, sending a signal to Dean.

That means he has already entered Batman's eyes. If he didn't meet Batman in the stadium this time, it might not be the case next time.

When it came time to face Batman, Dean had to undergo a major upgrade. He didn't want to go to Arkham Asylum for further training.

But... where should I upgrade?This requires careful consideration.

"Look at the existing abilities and props first."

Dean picked out the personal panel.

"Name: Dean Suston

Age: 16 years old

Skills: Magic proficiency, vehicle proficiency, lockpicking proficiency, shooting proficiency, fighting proficiency, quick disguise, voice change without props
Items: Card Gun, Hookshot Gun, Triangle Glider, Bulletproof Cloak, Human Figure, Small Surveillance System Jammer, Stone of Dire Fortune, Curse Resistance Shield (Class C Doom), Hard Face Cutter, Micro Bug, Textile Material repair fluid, soil circulation cleaner
Talent: Resistant Skin (Low Level) Sensitive Reaction (Middle Level)

Account balance: 35807 exclamation value"

Hmm~ this pleasing balance...

At this time, Dean looked at the two talents he already had.

According to the grading description of talents in the system, they are divided into five levels: low-level, intermediate-level, high-level, special-level, and perfect. You can purchase high-level talent cards to directly obtain high-level talents, or you can pay an equal amount of exclamation points to get high-level talents. Low-level talents are upgraded to high-level talents.

Taking resistant skin as an example, the low-level effect is to slow down [-]% of trauma caused by various special attributes such as burning, freezing, corrosion, toxins, radiation, and explosions, and accelerate healing.

The intermediate level is 30.00%, the high level is 60.00%, the special level is 90.00%, and perfect is [-]% immunity.

Depending on the type of talent, the price required to upgrade will also fluctuate.

Only the prices of the three stages of low, middle and high are fixed. One thousand, two thousand, and five thousand remain the same. Starting from special-level talents, the pricing becomes magical, and the floating value is between [-] and [-].

The consummation-level talent starts at 20 yuan, and there is no upper limit, but considering its powerful effects, this price does not seem so unacceptable.

Among them, Dean's sensitive reaction talent belongs to the highest price tier. Upgrading to a super sensitive reaction requires 100 exclamation points, and upgrading to a perfect level requires [-] million exclamation points.

Resistant skin is considered to be in the middle range. It takes 40 exclamation points to upgrade to a special level, and [-] exclamation points to complete it.

After thinking twice, Dean decided to upgrade the resistant skin and sensitive response to high-level first. These two talents have great potential and are core abilities that must be replaced.

Maybe the superficial description of the resistant skin looks a little weak, and the perfect level that is less than 100% immune may not be useful.

But is this really the case?

Of course not, because the system's determination of damage is not based on the size of the external attack, but on the size of the attack on the host itself.

What does it mean?

For example, if a grenade can kill Dean, and a missile can also kill Dean, then these two kinds of damage will be judged as fatal damage by the system, regardless of size!
The resistant skin talent can reduce fatal damage to non-lethal damage. This is the real role of this talent.

In the most easy-to-understand terms, no matter whether the enemy's attack power is [-] or [-], at most [-] points of Dean's full health can only be deducted, and it will not be deducted into a negative number.

The low-level resistance skin can reduce the damage by [-]%, so that the fatal damage with a [-] HP deduction becomes a serious injury and near-death damage with a [-] HP deduction. This is indeed relatively tasteless, the enemy is nothing more than another blow thing.

But once you reach a high level, the resistant skin can reduce the lethal damage to a medium damage that only deducts [-] HP. Are you not tempted by this value?
It sounds like this resistant skin is like an invincible hang, so is this really the case?
(By the way, should I ask for a little leave today? Forget it, let’s ignore such trivial matters, I found that I am a bit bad at writing exchanges, and many things have to be clarified)
