Chapter 1818: Research, Teen Mode and Team
Joseph had never been able to do anything about Luke.
Even the smartest kid would be depressed when they ran into a rotten guy who had lived up to 30 years old in his previous life.
Luke was several times more shameless than Claire and Joseph combined.
Joseph could only be blunt. “It’s fine if you go on a business trip, but Mindy went traveling a few days after that. She entrusted me to Nikki and Monica, and they took turns sending me home. Did you know that?”
Luke chuckled and rubbed Joseph’s head. “Hey, isn’t that great for you? A long-legged big sister picks you up and takes you home – do you know how many people would be happy to experience that?”
Suddenly, he looked enlightened. “So, you’re actually not complaining about me going on a business trip, but you’re unhappy that Mindy went traveling too?”
Joseph opened his mouth but was unable to respond.
He really was unhappy about that, but it wasn’t just that; Mindy had gone to Japan with a friend she had met recently.
Joseph was only nine and needed his parents to accompany him if he went overseas. What could he do?
He didn’t think that Catherine would let him take leave from school for no reason and go traveling with him.
Although Mindy had told him about the trip to Japan after she came back, and it didn’t sound like very much fun, Joseph was still a little depressed.
What he didn’t know was that the Level 2 clone had always been in New York and would go to the basement workshop every night. It watched over Joseph, but never appeared in front of him.
Luke stopped teasing Joseph. He opened his backpack and gave him two boxes. “These are your gifts.”
Joseph looked at the colors suspiciously. “Another matching set?”
Luke winked at him. “See for yourself. I didn’t specially wrap them up this time.”

Joseph opened the black box. Inside was a semi-transparent box with a distinct Japanese logo on it and the head of a fierce black bear on the side.
He picked up his tablet and took a photo of the box. Then, he read the translation: “Strongest hero, Black Bear costume, limited edition 100 sets? 95% similarity to the real suit?”
He opened the pink box that was at the bottom. “Strongest hero, Pink Bear costume, limited edition 100 sets. Hm... princess dress?”
Joseph’s eyes widened. “You want me to give the princess dress to Mindy?”
Luke said, “Why not? She’s a girl. Besides, this is a limited edition dress. There’s no armor.”
In any case, it doesn’t look as good as the armor I make, Luke murmured inwardly.
After hesitating for a moment, Joseph accepted the gifts.
At the very least, some thought had been put into it — Mindy did like pink more.
After accepting the gifts, this little brother couldn’t maintain a wooden expression anymore. The two brothers could finally go back to talking normally.
...
Luke and Selina didn’t do anything big after they returned.
After a refreshing break, Selina started to deal with the work that had piled up in the PDD, and Luke began to study the Parasites and the symbiote Riot.
Compared with before, Luke now had some research manpower.
In Space 2, Sterns, Claudia and Ophelia were very interested in the alien species.
They all had their own main research projects, but Luke had a lot of Parasites, and each of the three scientists were given two for research, based on their preferences.
After using them up, they could get more Parasites. In any case, they weren’t rare.
The three scientists were very interested in the symbiote Riot, but Luke treasured this guy and didn’t dare let them mess around with it.
If Riot was killed in the process, Luke really wouldn’t be able to find another one like it.
The research on the Parasites soon produced results, and the three scientists came to a rough conclusion: Parasites had a limited value in the short term, and weren’t worth further research.
After all, this thing possessed just one part of the host. The rest of the body was still a weakness.
More parasites could indeed strengthen more parts, but they could interfere with each other.
If things went wrong, they might fight for control of the body.
The Hulk basically still had a human appearance.
Blonsky, who was half a Hulk, might still have a human form, but was already very ugly.
In comparison, not only did the Parasites have to eat people to survive, they had completely inhuman appearances.
For now, the Parasites could only be used as interesting research subjects; Luke couldn’t expect to gain any benefits from the research.
Instead, Dr. Sterns was very interested in the anomaly that was Shinichi Izumi.
It was a pity that Shinichi Izumi was a neutral yellow in the system, so Luke couldn’t capture him for experiments. He could only have the PDD in Japan find an opportunity to dupe him into participating in some tests.
The main focus of the Parasite research was actually on the highly intelligent parasite, Ryoko Tamiya.
If she could develop food to replace human blood, Luke would let her go.
If she achieved this goal, Luke could protect her and let her live openly in human society.
But she had to become the new king of the parasites and do her best to control them so that they no longer ate people.
At that time, she and her kind could work for Phil.
For Parasites with fighting capabilities far beyond what ordinary humans had, this was the only treatment they could get.
They had lived in human society for a long time, and it wouldn’t be hard for them to hide the fact that they ate people. Any one of them who got a craving could secretly kill a human to eat.
There was naturally no way they could be allowed to hide freely in human society.
Tamiya had no objections. She even started her research the day after she was captured.
Luke also needed time to test the effects of various abilities and methods on her.
Pheromone Control and Mental Hypnosis and Illusion weren’t as effective on the Parasite, but they weren’t completely useless.
After experimenting and making adjustments, he might be able to find a control method which ensured that nothing happened to her.
...
Luke was engrossed in his research.
On Mindy’s side, it was lively.
A few days ago, she found the bigshot who sold everything and opened a separate team channel called Ursa Minor Team.
The rules of this channel were directly copied from the Bat Squad, and Luke even added a ‘teen mode’ — any questions or divulging of personal information would be directly censored.
Mindy was a member, with the codename Miss M.
Joseph was also a member, with the codename Destiny.
Then, there were the little turtles: Blueberry (Leo), Red Bean Ice (Raphel), Novelty (Mikey), and Purple Grape (Donnie).
Next were Black Pearl (Monica), White Diamond (Nikki), Miss J (Carrie), and Mr. T (Tyrone).
Finally, there was Miss P, and this person... was Claire.
As for whether this P referred to “pink” or “Peppa,” or even both, only Claire herself knew.
Apart from that, Luke and Selina were the channel moderators and chat supervisors, who shared an account and ensured that these guys didn’t mess around.
The most ordinary person in this group of youngsters was Joseph. Apart from possessing an IQ of more than 140, there was nothing special about him.
But if they really wanted to cause trouble, this line-up of ten superheroes was pretty lavish. They just lacked experience and organization.
If Mindy carried on like this, however, Luke might not have to worry about putting together a second-tier team – this Ursa Minor could become the ‘teen team’!
