Chapter 57 Hungarian Tree Bee Dragon, but something's not right.
"So where are you going next?"
After seeing off a certain Iron Man, Jaeger asked Clark, who was standing next to him.
"After all, according to what you said before, you fell because your energy was devoured by the energy-devouring worms. Now that you've recovered, you should be able to leave this place, right?"
"Or do you want to stay on the ship and be Bruce Wayne for a few more days?" Jaeger laughed.
"No, no," Clark said righteously. "I can no longer allow myself to be corrupted by capital and money!"
"Besides," Clark added, "it's not good to keep pretending to be someone else. I thought everything on the cruise ship might just be a nice dream, but now that I know it was all a misunderstanding, there's no need to stay any longer. Besides..."
"Besides..." Jaeger asked curiously, "Do you have anywhere you're going?"
"That's right," Clark said sheepishly. "I hadn't made up my mind before, but now I think it might be time."
His gaze drifted involuntarily northward, as if he could see across oceans and lands the heavy white snow of that frigid land, and buried deep within it the last legacy of Krypton left by his father.
Through the incident with the energy-devouring worms, Clark realized that there was still much more he could do.
It's not just limited to this place, or even just to the United States.
He understood this deeply the moment he flew into space and looked down at the Earth.
And it was time for him to set off for the Arctic.
"Understood." Jaeger patted Clark on the shoulder. "I'll let you know where 'Bruce Wayne' is as far as the other passengers are going, so don't worry."
"Thank you." Clark gave Jaeger a grateful look. "...Will we have a chance to meet again?"
"Perhaps," Jaeger thought for a moment.
—To be honest, it's actually quite possible, after all, the other party is suspected to be Superman.
"I sincerely hope that day will come," Clark said, then waved to Jaeger, leaped into the air, and vanished in an instant at a speed too fast for the naked eye to perceive.
Witnessing the other person leave, Poison Mist couldn't help but ask, "So what are you going to do now, Langdon? Go find the other passengers and talk to them about Bruce Wayne?"
"No." Jaeger said expressionlessly, "Have you forgotten? I'm socially awkward. I won't go out and tell anyone."
Poisonous fog: ? ? ?
Schrödinger's social anxiety setting has been absent for a long time, and it's taking a while to get used to it.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. It's one thing to do it in front of two people, but Langdon probably wouldn't want to show his face in front of a large audience, let alone make any comments about someone like Bruce Wayne who would be in the spotlight.
"But we can talk about other things." Jaeger pulled out a miniature reactive building block module he had assembled multiple times, examining it. "Do you think this could be used by Parrels Industries?"
"Of course," said Poison Mist. "I've analyzed the principles and structure before, and with the physical objects you created with your abilities, Langdon, it's entirely possible to replicate them."
"Then it's up to you. Use it where appropriate." Jaeger thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "...Wait, did I used to do this all the time?"
The physical objects transformed from building blocks were analyzed using toxic fumes and then used as research samples for Parelers Industries to develop products.
After all, LEGO modules are full of high-tech products. If Parrel Industries needs creativity, LEGO has an inexhaustible supply of ideas... and can even reproduce them.
The toxic fog indeed replied: "That's right. More than 80% of Parrel Industries' products and ideas come from your abilities, which is why it has developed rapidly in just a few years since you founded it, and even reached the top level in the industry."
"..." Jaeger paused for a moment, thinking that if this experience were written into a book, it might become a thrilling novel like "Becoming the Richest Man Starts with Lego"—
Unfortunately, with Bruce Wayne as Gotham's richest man, Langdon Parrels has had to take a backseat for now.
But thinking about it carefully, being second-tier isn't so bad. That way, if those criminals in Gotham City ever want to kidnap a rich person for ransom, they'll first consider Bruce Wayne, the richest man in the world, instead of him...
Thank you for silently bearing all the blues!
And it was at this moment that a virtual card table belatedly appeared before their eyes:
[The Strange Drowning Youth - Goal Achieved]
[Description: You now know the young man's true identity and special abilities, and you've also resolved the hidden danger on the ship... Perhaps you'd like to visit the rift in the world as a way to bring this incident to a close?]
[Card folding mission objective completed!]
[This round's main cards have been discounted]
[The timeline will return to normal in half an hour. The countdown to the next main card draw is estimated at 14 days.]
14 days? Jaeger thought for a moment, then realized that he hadn't even spent a single day since returning to the normal timeline.
Getting a free day off without having to use a card is such a wonderful thing.
As for what's mentioned in the event card...
"The World Rift," Jaeger thought for a moment. "We still have time, let's go take a look."
After all, since it was mentioned on the event card, there might really be something wrong with that crack... and actually, when Tony mentioned it, Jaeger was already planning to go and take a look.
Fortunately, this time there wasn't the rush like when chasing the swarm of energy-devouring insects. Jaeger then used the module library that his Lego Builder ability had automatically popped into his brain to search for the modules he needed—the kind that could make him fly…
His gaze soon and uncontrollably fell on a certain module.
[LEGO Code 76406 - Hungarian Tree Bee Dragon]
Hungarian Tree Bee Dragon? Isn't that a creature from Harry Potter?
Jaeger suddenly felt something was off. He could understand the LEGO Builder’s ability to transform objects between reality and LEGO bricks, but what about the biological modules?
Is it about bringing inanimate objects to life?
Jaeger was a little curious, so he simply collected the corresponding building blocks in the room, and made some custom parts according to the instructions.
Soon, the module he needed was built.
[Assembled complete, you have obtained the "Hungarian Hornet Dragon Module x1"]
Jaeger looked at the dragon-shaped module in his hand, thought for a moment, and then, just in case, summoned poison mist. The instant he pressed his hand against it to transform, the mist extended tentacles, passing the module over the balcony railing and onto the sea surface—
To avoid the possibility of a dragon actually appearing and causing trouble for the cruise ship.
The module begins to transform the moment it is handed over.
The Hungarian Tree Bee Dragon module, which was not large to begin with, began to grow larger and larger.
At the same time, the limbs of the building block module began to move, and the wings on its back began to flap, taking the entire dragon into the air!
As Jaeger watched this scene, his lips suddenly twitched:
Wait a minute, all the things mentioned earlier can be seamlessly transformed between reality and building blocks.
And this transformed Hungarian Tree Bee Dragon... although it's moving, why does it still look like a giant block dragon overall?!
It's less like a living organism and more like a mecha made of building blocks!
