On its 4th birthday, the player received 1 finished serum of the Extremis Virus, with a 100% success rate.
On its lucky 5th birthday, it gained its most frequently used ability—Flight lv1, which currently allows it to fly at subsonic speeds.
On my 6th birthday, I drew a skill card. The purpose of the skill card is to upgrade the skills I have already drawn.
When Hawke was 7 years old, he won a pair of genuine Balenciaga stockings in a lottery. After giving the stockings to a female intern who had just joined the company, he was severely beaten by his father.
When I was 8 years old, I drew a new category: a character card: business elite - Andy.
When he saw the face on the card that looked exactly like actress Liu Tao, his eyebrows twitched. He had watched the hit drama "Ode to Joy" in his previous life.
The day after he used the skill card, his father suddenly told him that he had sponsored a female student from China named Andy and would be her host family.
And so, 8-year-old Hawke and 18-year-old Andy began a shameless and carefree life together...
On my 9th birthday, I drew a skill card.
On his 10th birthday, he drew the ability that is currently his core damage-dealing skill - Heat Ray Lv1.
His 11th birthday was an unlucky day; the first "thank you for your patronage" in his life was imprinted on his forehead.
Age 12, Emotional Soothing lv1, a practical emotional skill that can come in handy when Andy cries because of being bullied.
13 years old, thank you for your patronage...
14 years old, thank you for your patronage...
Two nightmarish years...
At 15 years old, with hacking skills at level 1, an essential skill for any protagonist, no further explanation needed.
5 Concepts of Immortality
At age 16, a comprehensive enhancement [one-time, non-upgradeable] is implemented, including bone density, muscle fibers, nerve reaction speed, cell activity, and self-healing ability.
The theory was pushed to the limits of what is mortal.
This allowed him to smash the skulls of three professional mercenaries with his bare hands during a business kidnapping, so fast that his bodyguards didn't even see his movements.
At 17, I drew Energy Absorption Level 1.
This is also Hawk's core ability, and it was in this year that Hawk experienced some dramatic events that prompted him to put on the bodysuit and do something exciting and righteous.
He originally wanted to name himself "Hungry Ghost Realm", but after being criticized for being too silly, he changed it to "King".
In his view, possessing this ability means a significant increase in self-protection capabilities.
Although level 1 energy absorption is not as good as Black King's, at this point in time, there is absolutely no one in small Brooklyn who can be his opponent.
The ability he drew at age 18 is Hawke's second favorite ability: Male Technique Enhancement Lv1.
A perfect coming-of-age ceremony, a gift from God.
After gaining the ability, Hawke immediately used it on his sister Andy...
Andy, who had already become the CFO, took her first week-long vacation and spent the entire week sleeping with him...
At 19, I drew an unremarkable skill card, and so far I have three skill cards.
The ability Hawke drew at the age of 20 is nothing short of incredible, and it's the most powerful ability Hawke has ever drawn.
[Conceptual Immortality (Cannot be Upgraded)]
No matter what form of life you are.
As long as there is a medium within the omnipotent universe to record you.
As long as you haven't been forgotten
As long as there are people reciting your name
As long as there are traces of your existence.
You will not truly die.
In response, an excited Hawke threw a yacht party for three whole months, gathering famous supermodels and second- and third-tier actresses from various countries, making headlines in entertainment and economic sections every day.
After all, the ability description states, "As long as there is any trace of your existence..."
Hawke naturally wanted to leave as many traces as possible, all sorts of traces, which certainly included his own genetic material...
During this period, even the gossip about playboy Tony Stark has gone unnoticed.
In short, it's all about living a life of debauchery... anyway, you won't die...
However, the peaceful days were shattered a month ago.
Bates Capital, the greedy vulture of Wall Street, has finally bared its fangs after several failed attempts to hostilely acquire multiple mines under Lane Mining.
They were no longer satisfied with financial games, so they directly hired a... monster squad.
The attack occurred during a crucial meeting that John Lane was convening with senior executives of the company.
The enemy's attack was precise and ruthless.
This is a four-person team whose movements are superhuman and whose strength is so great that they can tear apart concrete walls with their bare hands.
The strangest thing is that they seem to have some kind of telekinetic ability. When bullets are fired at them, it's as if they hit an invisible wall and are instantly crushed into metal discs.
Fortunately, Hawke happened to be at the company at the time. He rushed into the conference room and used his body to withstand and absorb most of the shockwave, successfully covering the evacuation of John Lane and most of the senior executives. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
The Ryan family's mercenary and bodyguard teams suffered heavy casualties.
Blood, twisted steel, strange energy fluctuations lingering in the air…
All of this was like a cold needle, piercing Hawke's carefully maintained facade of calm.
Anger burned in his chest, but even stronger than the anger was a ruthless determination, because someone had crossed his bottom line.
This time, Hawke, now possessing "immortality," fears nothing.
Hawke used information from unofficial sources and his own hacking skills to pinpoint the attacker's location.
As the superhero "King," he wages a relentless counter-hunting campaign in New York's underworld.
Of these four people:
Duoxun was dismembered into eight pieces, and his self-healing speed could not keep up with Hawke's damage rate. He was thrown onto the train tracks and crushed into mincemeat.
Park Sung-mi was split in two; one half was buried at a construction site, and the other half sank into the Hudson River.
Ha Soo-min's head was blasted apart by the heat rays, and he was eventually roasted into a pile of charcoal...
The four-man squad was reduced to a single member, and Hawke used the most ruthless methods to interrogate the squad's leader—the woman who had caused him a little trouble: Eunfi.
She was completely overwhelmed by Hawke's power.
She struggled to lift her head, and a few words, laced with fear, escaped her lips: "We are... the Clay Doll Squad... the base... Busan... the modified... witches... Goo Ja-yoon..."
"The Witch Project!"
A name, a location, a vague outline emerges.
Hawke's investigative abilities far exceed what most people imagine.
He used the Ryan Group's global network of server nodes as a springboard and used a skill card to upgrade his hacking skills to level 2.
This allowed them to breach the peripheral databases of multiple countries' intelligence agencies, scrape together fragmented information, and, through special financial channels, track the clandestine flow of Bates Capital's funds, ultimately outlining their target—
Hidden deep beneath Busan, South Korea, is the "Witch Project" base, secretly funded by former S.H.I.E.L.D. director Alexander Pierce, where superhuman weapons are being developed.
By investigating the flow of funds over the past decades, they were shocked to discover that Bates Capital, which had been opposing them and attempting to break up and acquire Lane Group, was actually Alexander's front man.
Therefore, it was Alexander, the former leader of S.H.I.E.L.D., who wanted to secretly erode Ryan's power.
As for the reasons, the first reason is: who would complain about having too much money?
The second reason is that this wasn't the first time Alexander had done something like this.
In fact, in his early years, he abused his power for personal gain, secretly annexing or controlling some multinational companies.
One purpose is to provide financial support for certain of their own actions;
Secondly, it serves as their own intelligence channel.
"So that's how Hydra gradually developed."
Hawke was also swirling his wine glass at that moment.
He needed to nip this small threat in the bud and give his adversaries a little American shock.
6 Seventy-two hours ago
The key point is that he became interested in the plan itself... or rather, in the plan's core "product".
He didn't tell John Lane and Andy the specific action plan, only saying that he was going to "take care of the tail of Bates Capital."
The timeline is 72 hours ago.
Hawke's actions were as swift as lightning.
With the superior qualities brought by [Comprehensive Enhancement],
The high maneuverability brought about by flight
[Energy Absorption] Near-immunity to base defense weapons and an abnormal ability to replenish itself.
In addition, the [heat ray] has the power to cut through alloy gates as easily as a hot knife through butter.
Hawke orchestrated a precise "natural disaster" within the base.
The target is the core test area.
Then, he saw her.
Gu Ziyun.
The first witch.
Combat strength level: T0.
She emerged from the ruptured culture tank amidst the splattering liquid and the red alarm light, like a strange blade just unsheathed after being tempered.
His eyes were empty and cold, yet his movements possessed an inhuman fluidity and a deadly beauty.
