"You destroyed a hundred Hydra Bases?" -Melina was shocked by what she heard
"It's actually more than a hundred, but yes I did. You have a problem with that" I narrow my eyes at her. If she says yes or even thinks yes, than that means she is with Hydra and I have to eliminate her.
"How?" Alexei asks flabbergasted, well I get where he is coming from, as a single soldier who has killed a lot and been through many battles, imagining something like this, is probably hard for a 'normal' human like him.
But why the hell would I tell him my methods? I just smirk and say "Magic"
"Great, good job, but can we please just save the rest of the Widows so I can leave, preferably somewhere as far away from here" she says the last few words with quite a bit of hate. Guess the reunion did go too well.
"We will as soon as She gives us the location" Nat says pointing at Melina
"Wait she still hasn't told you?" I ask Nat, what the hell have they been doing all this time
"No she keeps avoiding the subject" Nat says while glaring at Melina
"Sigh I don't have time for this" I turn to Melina and lookher dead in the eyes
Legimancy'
I attack her mind with the lowest mental attack I can possibly do, I strained myself not to screw up, even a little bit of my full power will turn her into a vegetable
"Ughhh" Melina Turns her head away in pain
"What did you do!!!" Alexei points his gun at me, I use The Arc to make the gun turn into flowers.
"What the?!" jumps up in surprise
"She is fine, I just took the information straight from her mind" I sit down and pour myself a glass from the Vodka
"Hey!!" Yelena whines
"Oh stop whining I'll buy you a new one" Actually I'll make it but whatever.
"You can do that? Take intelligence directly from people's minds? Well that makes torture obsolete" Alexie calms down after seeing that Melina is fine
"That was not fun" She grumbles
"Well that's what you get for not telling us in the first place" Nat smiles smugly at her
"Enough" My tone silenced the squabble, he starts writing down the address on a piece of paper
"I got the location, I would send you there myself, but a bright orange portal kind of takes the whole stealth thing again. I plan on letting you have some 'family bonding' time. I will be nearby if you need me."
"Doing what exactly?" Yelena slurs. Damn, how much did she drink before I got here? I quickly do a diagnostic spell on her. Huh not a lot. But she was drinking on an empty stomach. Not smart
"I got some things to pick up." I'm not going to tell them I will be watching them, this way I can see more drama happening
I grab one of the cures from Yelena and run some diagnostics on it. When that finished I just made more with The Arc. I even made some variations in the way it can be given to the Widows. Injections, bullets, pills, powder and others
"Wow.. so you can just make anything you want with a thought?" Yelena says dumbly looking at the different cures on the ground
"Pretty much yea" I shrug
I stand up go to Nat " Be careful, and take it easy on your sister she isn't as strong as you are"
"Sigh fine.." she gives me a peck on the lips "Pick me up after I'm done. We still need to discuss the rewards of the bet " she gives me wink at the end, which made me smile
"Well good luck with your mission"
I turn myself invisible and open a portal directly above the base. I'm just bending light around myself and the portal, making both of us invisible.
Clairvoyance
Hmmm, not a lot, but its still something, unlike the low bases. Whatever, I'll just send Harvest to take the loot. Now from what I can see almost all the Widows are there, General Dreykov is in there too, giving out orders to a bunch of puppets,
[Due to your increased strength, and the fact that the Arc can create anything from the lowest level, the system will change the reward levels to be more fitting.
The lowest tier will be deleted, the low will change to the lowest, middle to low, exc.. the new high-tier will be more powerful and harder to acquire]

Okay that was a nice surprise, but it does make sense, why would something that I can easily make now count as a 'reward
Some of the things are still trash, the Fire breathing, the underwater breathing and the rest of the elemental magic and weird FT magic, I can still easily make, I just haven't seen the need to do so. I did get the Rest of the Rokushiki without having to buy them, which is nice.
Honestly, the biggest surprise was the rate on the +5.
out of 100 boxes 20 were +5. that's a 100 plus in each stat.
Did it account for what I most need? No that doesn't make any sense, I can easily buy stat points, but this doesn't seem like something the crazy bastard would do, did he get blackmailed or something?
Avatar Bending, is kind of boring, blood bending might be useful, but meh
Now for the stands
Strength is a stand that can turn a boat or a small yacht into a giant forefinger ship
Diver Down
[Diver Down appears as humanoid attired with a highly stylized set of SCUBA gear
Diver Down's first shown ability is to store its strikes on any surface.
When Diver Down hits something with a punch or a kick, the force of the impact is "stored" inside the object. Whenever Anasui wills it, the accumulated energy can be released outside of the object in the form of Diver Down's corresponding limb punching or kicking from inside the object.
Alternatively, Anasui can put Diver Down inside someone's body, so that whatever damage the target suffers will be transferred to Diver Down instead, protecting them from harm. If need be, Diver Down can become a part of the person and replace a lost limb
Diver Down's signature ability is to phase through solids and then freely change their insides.
By plunging inside an object or person, Diver Down can freely manipulate their internal structure; either to destroy them or piece them together anew. It can even dive into Stands to modify their structures, ]
Interesting stands, I'll test them out later
Okay while they are having their family bonding time, I'll take what i can from this base and sell it.
Harvest
Due to my huge Aura Capacity, this has long surpassed the first 500 bees that make up Harvest. That number is in the thousands now they grew stronger as well, each bee can carry more weight. They make quick work of the base, and team up to bring the bigger items to me.
I sell the loot and check my Points
From the 100 low bases I got 10000p from only the mission and a couple of thousand from the junk that they had.
Points: 20000 15p- per hour spent meditating
It's 15 points now.. I think the system is trying to catch up to my gains, so I meditate more. Which is weird. The system is making me spend more time meditating. I need to check this when I have the time, for now. I'll go blow up some more bases, I need to try out the new magics that I got.
I am an artist and Hydra Bases are my Canvas. Let's go make some ART!!
