Chapter 3: 03 Infinite Concept Skill System
"Wow! I'm so strong!"
Kagura snapped back to reality and found herself standing victorious, utterly shocked.
The Hulk, lying nearby, shared her expression of disbelief.
At this moment, Bruce Banner understood a fundamental truth: no matter whether the Hulk should be considered a "superhero" or not, there is definitely more than one "superhero" in this world.
Kagura Hitomi and the Hulk exchanged glances.
If one could look back from the future, this would surely be a historically significant moment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The steel rebar in her hand trembled slightly, its sharp tip having perfectly pierced "Abomination's" eye socket, pinning his entire head to the ground.
The massive black giant twitched a few times before going limp.
Black blood flowed steadily from "Abomination's" head, forming a growing pool around him.
"Ugh!"
When she shifted her gaze to "Abomination," her instincts immediately told her to step back.
This was the first time she had seen such a brutal, life-and-death battle firsthand.
As an ordinary girl, just a typical high school student, she had no real courage when it came to facing blood and violence, especially not something as intense as a headshot.
"Ugh! Eh? Wait?"
She quickly covered her mouth, thinking she was going to be sick, but realized her body didn't feel as bad as she had expected.
The fear of blood and death was more a product of her own subjective imagination.
Placing a hand on her chest, she murmured, "I see... this body, it's an automatic, humanoid one. It's not phased by something like this."
Would you feel sad or afraid if you stepped on a bug?
Of course not.
[Target confirmation silent]
[Task: Kill a hostile target/Complete]
[Earned 5 QP]
The green confirmation bar flashed briefly.
The holographic UI window displayed new information.
[New Skill Information Received:]
[Close Combat Weapon Mastery]
Hmm?
So this is how the skill system works?
She focused on the holographic UI in front of her.
She noticed in the corner of the UI was an overview of her abilities and the system's name.
[Infinite Concept Skill System]
[Concept Skill Combination Successful]
[New Skill Information Received]
[Modern Firearm Mastery]
...
WTF???
She stared at the new message, suddenly understanding what "Infinite Concept Skill System" actually meant.
In addition to triggering skills through actions, there was a second method for acquiring new skills.
By using existing skills as a foundation, she could extract powers from memories of various ACG works and turn them into "Concepts," which could then give rise to corresponding Concept Skills.
Now it made sense!
The huge list of skills, filled with mostly question marks, consisted mostly of these Concept Skills.
This ability is interesting!
'Thwup-thwup-thwup-thwup'
Kagura excitement was interrupted by the sound of helicopter blades.
The battle had ended, and the nearby civilians and army units began to gather.
Clearly, the Hulk and the U.S. military had been fighting "Abomination" for quite some time before Kagura Hitomi arrived.
'Boom!'
A bright white light beam descended from the sky, and the helicopter's spotlight illuminated "Abomination's" body, as well as the area around Kagura, turning it into a stark, glaring light.
The girl, caught in the intense beam, instinctively raised her hand to shield her face.
'This is bad!'
Kagura realized.
That If she exposed herself here, wouldn't she end up like the Hulk, forced into a life on the run?
A suddenly appearing girl, unarmed, taking down a monster that both the military and Hulk couldn't handle...
She would definitely be caught and dragged into some weird lab, subjected to all sorts of experiments!
No, no! That's terrifying! I have to get out of here!
With a quick thought, Kagura Hitomi activated the holographic UI once again.
[Short-Term Active Acceleration: Activated]
As the energy bar quickly filled, the skill indicator switched from yellow to green. The girl glanced at the Hulk, then disappeared from her spot.
'Boom!'
The delayed physical effect exploded into a cloud of dust on the ground. A new cracked crater appeared next to "Abomination's" corpse.
Blue glowing points mixed with the dust, slowly fading into the air.
The noisy night on the chaotic streets of New York went silent, and the mysterious girl who had defeated "Abomination" was gone.
