Chapter 1697 - Inspecting the Business, and Santiago
Thinking that, Luke turned around.
Selina was watching the video of the battle and studying the details.
The dog head lay at her feet and silently gorged itself on blue cheese-flavored empanadas.
Selina noticed Luke's movements and jerked her chin. "The latte you like."
Luke smiled and poured himself a cup of coffee. "You can ponder this battle, but don't get too engrossed in it."
Selina was confused.
In the past, he had always urged her to reflect in the aftermath and find gaps in her actions.
Luke sighed. "This sort of thing isn't easy to deal with."
Selina immediately got it. "Are there other tricky monsters?"
Luke told her how Big Dipper had killed Shredder in Japan.

Selina was astonished. "That troublesome?"
After thinking for a moment, however, she said confidently, "With Gold Nugget around, I would probably be able to kill him."
That was the truth.
Gold Nugget could also turn into liquid, and was far more sensitive than Ivan's Electric Cable suit.
At the very least, there was a 50% chance that Shredder would be defeated if he ran into Selina.
Luke simply said, "What's important isn't whether or not you can beat them – what will you do if they hide and escape from you?"
As he said that, he recalled the Warlock in Grand Rapids.
It would've been hard for him to deal with the Warlock without the tycoon's help.
Selina said helplessly, "That's not something we can decide, right?"
Luke nodded. "So, we should lay low in the first instance and look for an opportunity to kill them in one hit."
Selina asked, "But what if they're already making trouble?"
Luke said, "You still need to hide some of your strength. When the time comes, pretend that you can't do anything, and find an opportunity to kill him."
Selina nodded before she looked at him suspiciously. "Do you think I'm too straightforward in battle?"
Luke decisively denied it. "No, we're just discussing tactics. There are so many people in the team. You're the one I trust the most, and the biggest trump card."
That really was what he thought.
In their complete symbiotic form, Selina and Gold Nugget could pick Loki up and throw him around – they were definitely the strongest.
As for the clones? They were part of Luke, and couldn't be considered teammates.
Selina didn't notice his omission, and finally let it go. "Where to next?"
"North. When we reach Peru, we'll enter the Amazon jungle from there," he said.
Selina grew interested. "Are we going to explore the jungle?"
Luke shook his head. "No, to inspect our secret enterprise."
Selina: "Huh?"
Why didn't she know that she had an enterprise in the Amazon jungle?
What could there be there? Was it a logging site?
…
After that was a peaceful and leisurely journey.
On the way north from Ushuaia was Chile's coast, which didn't have many big cities.
Before they entered Santiago, the capital of Chile, Selina asked Luke, "You like coffee so much. Do you want to try the special coffee here?"
Luke found that odd. "I drink more tea. When I have coffee, isn't it with you?"
Selina thought for a moment and realized that he was right. "Then how about going to a nightclub?"
Luke said, "If you want to go, you can arrange it. I have no objections."
Pleased, Selina nodded. "Okay."
Watching her go off happily to sunbathe, Luke smiled and took another sip of his coffee.
Chile was a renowned and very attractive place for men.
Firstly, Chile had beautiful women.
Secondly, it was said that 70% of newborns in Chile didn't have fathers (70% believe in Catholicism and were not in favor of abortion).
Thirdly, prostitution was legal in Chile.
Cafe Haiti's "coffee with legs," and the strip joints could be considered a specialty of Chile.
The former was similar to Japanese maid cafes, except that the maid outfits were switched out for short, tight skirts.
There wasn't much to say about the latter, but Chilean women often stole the limelight in international beauty pageants.
If Luke and Selina went out to play, they definitely wouldn't use their original appearances, but they definitely wouldn't make themselves ugly.
It was easy to imagine how much harassment Luke would receive.
Half a day later, Luke and Selina disembarked at San Antonio and headed for Santiago.
To Selina's surprise, Luke's face was very plain this time; the possibility of him attracting unwanted attention dropped by 50%.
This realization put her in a good mood.
Back in Rio, when Luke revealed his face and figure, there had been a lot of women who very unsubtly bumped into Luke.
They naturally didn't care if he had a girlfriend or not.
Later, when the two of them went south, Luke started using slightly more handsome identities. It became a common occurrence in big cities.
It could only be said that Latin American girls were indeed more enthusiastic.
…
There were many places called Santiago in the world.
However, the one in America was actually called San Diego, while the one in Chile was Santiago.
It was the Spaniard, Pizarro, who first discovered this land. He returned home before bringing back troops to destroy the Incan empire.
After the natives were massacred by the white colonists, Spanish descendants settled here, and Spanish became the official language.
The architecture in Santiago was the classic European style with white stone walls, pillars, roofs and sculptures.
In the southern hemisphere, it was summer in December in Santiago.
Under the clear and blue sky, the majestic Andes mountain range towered next to the modern metropolis. The base of the mountains was a dark yellow and black, while the top of the mountains was covered in snow. It was a magnificent scene.
It was quite nice to sit outside a cafe and enjoy the view.
The cafe that Luke and Selina were at wasn't located in the city, but on the top of a hill.
So, this wasn't a tourist shop out to make a quick buck, but a refined and exquisite high-end cafe.
The waitresses here all wore gray pants which didn't show off their legs.
Selina leaned in close to Luke and whispered in his ear, "It seems they're doing well?"
Luke hummed and took a sip of his coffee as he discreetly observed the two cafe owners who were enjoying life.
One was tall and the other was short. Both of them were slim.
From what he could gather with Elementary Sound Wave, they were talking about the shop's profits.
After listening for a moment, Luke knew that the cafe wasn't very profitable, but it was still sustainable.
The tall female boss seemed to be looking for a more profitable venture, while the short female boss prioritized a stable revenue.
But it wasn't like they were turning hostile with each other – they were just trying to convince the other party.
