"...No problem."
Tony did not linger for even a moment before flying away.
"We'll wait here. Let S.H.I.E.L.D. worry about Hydra, and while we're at it, urge them about the identity issue. Then we'll rent a luxury apartment, grind some dungeons, and play games..."
That was Shen He's plan.
His cheat system did not require him to participate in the plot. He could even draw U.S. dollars from low-tier cards, so there was no need to find a job.
Besides, this was a gacha game for collectors. When there were no events, he could just slack off and take it easy. Even if he wanted to grind, there was nothing to grind.
Come to think of it, would this system have events? Would it?
"Even if you ask me, I don't know." Saiki Kusuo looked at Shen He. "You seem to have adapted quickly."
"What do you mean, to being transported here?" Shen He pointed to his head. "Perhaps it's because I never wanted to believe that fantasies were just fantasies. Everything that happened today doesn't feel all that unreal to me, so naturally, I have to show the adaptability of a social elite."
"An adult's way of dealing with things..." Saiki Kusuo fell slightly into thought.
Bang—!
A sharp crack rang out.
"Wh-what was that?"
Shen He looked closely and sucked in a cold breath.
A gleaming golden bullet hung near the back of his head. Without Saiki Kusuo here, he would have been finished.
"A sniper."
Saiki Kusuo's eyes immediately crossed as he activated his Clairvoyance ability.
"Wait, they might have accomplices."
Shen He immediately grabbed Saiki Kusuo, who was about to teleport away.
Almost at the same moment, two more soft shots rang out. This time, two sniper bullets came from different directions in quick succession.
"Go to that corner of the wall first."
Shen He and Saiki Kusuo ran together to a corner of the rooftop wall and pressed themselves against it. It was a blind spot, with cover on all sides.
"There are a lot of them. At least a dozen snipers, nearly a hundred enemies, and some heavy weapons." Saiki Kusuo's eyes remained in their Clairvoyance state. "Unlike the assassins from before, they seem to be gangsters."
Even at only level two, ordinary people and ordinary weapons still could not threaten him. But protecting Shen He made things somewhat difficult.
"Gangsters? I haven't even been here for a full day. Why would a gang attack me this frantically?" Shen He was speechless. Other transmigrators did not seem to encounter this kind of thing.
If this relentless assault kept up, even if he was not killed, the annoyance alone would drive him mad. How was he supposed to leisurely grind dungeons and draw Servants?
"Could it be because of this person?" Saiki Kusuo pointed at the captured Hydra assassin nearby. "One of the two bullets just now was aimed at him."
"...I see!"
As though a flash of inspiration had struck him, Shen He suddenly understood.
According to the plot, Hydra was still in hiding at this time. The earlier car accident had most likely only been a test.
