Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Fighting to the End with the Stanich Family
Although Jason was very unhappy with Tony Stark's attitude towards him before, he still felt a sense of accomplishment when he saw Tony being conquered by the food he made.
Although he still rejected Tony's offer, Jason left Tony with a contact number. If Tony wanted to eat a hamburger and Jason happened to be free, Jason would not mind doing the door-to-door delivery service.
At the same time, Tony also left the contact information of his personal assistant Pepper Potts to Jason. If Jason suddenly decided to become Tony's personal chef one day, he could call Pepper.
After 2 pm, Jason had already closed his stall and was ready to go home. Today's income was quite good.
Apart from the $500 Tony gave him, the purchases from ordinary diners alone had made Jason $1,200. This was more profitable than many restaurants with storefronts. And the working hours were quite short, only less than five hours a day.
After these days of recuperation, and with the help of his inner strength, Jason's injuries from the sixth block have healed. After the last battle, Jason felt that his ability was still not enough.
Especially the lack of defensive skills, such as Murphy's defensive sonic waves, which were very powerful, and his own flying knives could not penetrate them at all. Although it could not withstand the shooting of large-caliber sniper rifles, it could already defend against ordinary assault rifles.
If Jason had such defensive ability last time, then the battle would not have been so tragic, and he would not have suffered a lot of injuries. The last battle caused a big shock, and the heat of the news topic has not subsided until today.
Jason has gained a lot of reputation points these days. The reputation points that were originally exhausted have now increased. Jason opened the system and took a look. The current reputation points have increased to more than 11,000. Jason has never been so rich.
First, he spent three thousand points to upgrade the "Internal Energy" and the movement technique to the top level of perfection, and spent five hundred points of reputation to upgrade the "smoke escape" to the great level.
Jason felt that although internal energy and the movement technique were E-level skills, the battles in the past few days made Jason discover the benefits of these two skills.
The "Eight Wind-Breaking Swords" was originally just a sword technique that was specially learned to match the steel sword with increased damage. This sword technique actually had nothing special except that it was fast. It would inevitably be eliminated after the level was upgraded, so Jason was unwilling to spend more reputation on it.

Jason no longer wanted to complain about the system's evaluation of him.
When he opened the skill exchange option in the system, the first thing Jason felt about the D-level skills was that they were expensive! Too damn expensive.
He originally thought that he could splurge with more than 11,000 reputation points. But he didn't expect that the exchange price of D-level skills and E-level skills would increase exponentially.
The exchange price of E-level skills is 100 reputation points, and the upgrades are 10 points for minor success, 100 points for mastery, 500 points for major success, and 1000 points for perfection.
However, after reaching level D, the minimum price to redeem a D-level skill is 1,000 reputation points, and the price varies with the upgrade potential of the skill.
The higher the upgrade potential of a skill, the more expensive it is!
And the reputation cost for upgrading is also higher.
A D-level skill requires 1,000 points of reputation for minor success, 3,000 points of reputation for mastery, 5,000 points of reputation for great success, and 10,000 points of reputation for perfection!
Damn, dare you cheat me a little more? Jason has already spent 3500 reputation points to upgrade the E-level skill, and now he only has 8510 reputation points.
Now when he sees the price of this skill exchange, he feels very disappointed!
If the price of D-level skills is so high, then how terrifying will the reputation of higher-level C-level, B-level, and A-level be? Do you really need to save the earth to accumulate the reputation of S-level skills?
There was no point in saying more, so Jason gave up complaining and after calming down, he decided to exchange for a defensive skill first.
Petrified skin, PASS. This is obviously a mutant. Strong armor, PASS, this is definitely a technology. Let me see if there is a growth type that matches my attributes. Iron vest, PASS, it sounds very weak. Golden bell cover, PASS, a weak enhanced version.
Nine Dragon Holy Fire Cover~Oh my, this is awesome~I can't afford it, PASS.
Jason searched for a long time and finally chose the only skill he could afford and was not considered weak, the "Golden Indestructible Body Skill".
["Golden Indestructible Body Skill" is a D-level defensive martial art that can strengthen the host's body and blood. The minor level can defend against kinetic energy damage of less than 300 joules, the proficient level can defend against kinetic energy damage of less than 700 joules, and the major level can defend against kinetic energy damage of less than 1200 joules. The perfect level can defend against kinetic energy damage of less than 1800 joules, and can defend against low-level energy damage.]
This skill is a good skill. The defense level is good. The kinetic energy that a general pistol can generate is between 300 and 1000 joules, depending on the bullet used.
It is not easy to get high-powered and high-kinetic-energy pistol bullets, which are usually only equipped by national armies. For example, the pistol that injured Jason's shoulder a few days ago has a kinetic energy damage of about 500 joules at most.
If Jason had practiced the "Golden Indestructible Body Skill" that day, even if it was only a small success, the bullet from the pistol would probably have been stuck in Jason's muscles and would not have penetrated his shoulder at all.
Of course, practicing the "Golden Indestructible Body Skill" does not mean that Jason can do whatever he wants in the future. After all, the highest level of practice is only to defend against 1800 joules of kinetic energy damage and low-level energy damage.
You know, if the current assault rifles are equipped with special high-powered bullets, the general muzzle kinetic energy can reach about 2000 joules. Although the energy will inevitably decay during the flight, it will definitely be uncomfortable when it hits the body.
Not to mention sniper rifles with kinetic energy of over 3,500 joules.
Jason spent three thousand reputation points to purchase the "Golden Indestructible Body skill", and then spent another four thousand reputation points to upgrade the skill to the mastery level.
Adding the 3500 reputation points spent on the previous upgrade, the original 11,000 reputation points were reduced to a mere 1510. The reputation points came quickly, but were spent even faster!
