Chapter 74 The Legendary Gentlemen's Club (2 more chapters coming at 6 PM)
It was 10 p.m. that night.
After the association purged a large number of people and reviewed the current work of the association, Ben returned home.
As usual, I took a shower first.
He lay naked on the bed and continued to study the system's skill point allocation.
The body panel only has four indicators. Currently, the indicators for [Strength], [Agility], and [Mental Strength] are all quite good, but the [Constitution] indicator is somewhat lagging behind.
之前,由于【体质10/15/20/25/30】有保命的特性,所以之前班恩一直硬扛着没加点。
He still has one [Basic Berserk Card] as a safety net, so there's really no need to hold onto [Constitution 9] anymore, since [Constitution] is the foundation of everything.
With that in mind, Bane didn't hesitate any longer and directly consumed 1800 Chaos Reputation Points to raise his Constitution from 9 to 14.
With this boost, he felt an indescribable sense of abundance wash over him, and the fatigue from the past few days of busy work vanished.
Even his brother, whose physique was rapidly improving, suddenly raised his head without warning.
This left Bane somewhat dumbfounded.
He ignored it for the time being and used the remaining 700 Chaos Reputation Points to raise [Strength] to 14 points.
After finishing, he looked at the new body panel again.
[Host: Bane]
[Constitution: 14 (Consumes 1500 Chaos Reputation Points → 15)]
Strength: 14 (Same as above)
Agility: 12 (Consumes 500 Chaos Reputation Points → 13)
[Mental Strength: 15 (Cannot be increased at the moment)]
[Current available Chaos reputation points: 0]

"Unfortunately, the Berserk Card, a god-tier item, cannot be purchased again."
After turning off the system panel, Bane didn't have anything he wanted to repurchase for the time being.
After experiencing his upgraded body again, he suddenly sprang up from his lying position and easily stood up on the bed.
Then he jumped down and started throwing wild punches in the bedroom.
As he was fighting, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
He glanced down at her.
Well, why are you still looking up?
Does this mean my physique has been enhanced?
Or did you take sildenafil?
I checked the time; it was already 10:30. Clarissa, who was far away in Grosspoint, was probably already asleep.
I was just about to contact Thea to ask if she wanted to go out for a drink.
The phone rang first, alerting the caller to the Treasurer of the association, one of the remaining three board members. The caller was Drizzt from the BlackRock Foundation.
Once the call connected, an incredibly noisy commotion erupted from the other end. Tristana shouted, "Bane, interested in having a drink at the 'Legendary Gentlemen's Club'?"
"The Legendary Gentlemen's Club?" Bane had never heard of it.
"It's located at the intersection of Midtown and Downtown. I'll send you a detailed address. It'll take you at most 10 minutes to drive there."
"I have a few minutes. I'd like to talk to you about something, specifically BlackRock's budget."
Upon hearing this, Bane immediately became interested. With a budget, he could create issues, and with those issues, he could submit them to the system for rating and receive rewards.
So he laughed and said, "No problem, I was just about to have a drink too."
Ten minutes later, Bane arrived at the entrance of the Legendary Gentlemen's Club following the address.
This is a three-story detached building. Although it doesn't look very big, the red sign at the entrance is exceptionally eye-catching.
Since the club required tickets, Bane didn't go straight in. Instead, he leaned against the car and dialed Twisted Fate's number again.
After a while.
A tall, slender young woman emerged from the doorway, glanced around, and her gaze quickly settled on the person standing there—
On Bane, who was diagonally opposite the entrance.
She approached quickly with cat-like steps and confirmed, "Mr. Cole?"
"It's me," Bane replied, while sizing up the girl. Judging from her appearance, she seemed to be Slavic.
I just don't know if it came from Russia or Ukraine.
"My name is Sophia, I'm from Chicago. Trist sent me to pick you up." With that, she naturally led the way.
Bane followed her into the club. Inside was a dark corridor, at the end of which the entrance to the ballroom was hidden by a heavy curtain.
However, Sofia did not lead Bane to the entrance of the ballroom, but instead went directly up to the second floor via the side stairs.
Soon, the two stood at the door of a private room on the second floor.
Sofia knocked on the door first before pushing it open to let Bane go first.
The private room wasn't large, with three walls upholstered in soft fabric and one side made of glass, through which you could see the dance floor below.
Upon entering, Bane saw Tristana embracing three young models of different skin tones, wearing tank tops and thongs, standing by the glass wall, swaying to the music.
"What would you like to drink?" Sophia asked, closing and locking the door behind her as she leaned close to Bane's ear.
"Either is fine," Bane replied, and walked straight ahead. When he reached the glass wall, he looked down and saw several dancers performing around steel poles.
On the stage where the steel pipes were placed, there was a pile of US dollars of different denominations scattered around.
The men and women surrounding the stage continued to throw money at it while raising their glasses and shouting wildly.
It turns out that this so-called legendary gentlemen's club was actually a strip club.
After silently criticizing the name "Legendary Gentleman," Bane knocked on the glass wall, and Drizzt, who was surrounded by women, finally reacted.
He quickly pushed aside the young model next to him, reached out to Bane, and laughed loudly, "Sorry, the music is too loud."
After saying that, he pointed to the four corners of the ceiling in the private room and smiled, "However, the music here can be turned off, so it won't affect our conversation."
"That's great." Bane glanced at his watch, signaling to Drizzt to hurry up.
Drizzt chuckled, patted Bane on the shoulder, and said with a laugh, "Comeonman, you're so young and handsome, don't always look like you're only interested in work."
After saying that, he reached out and shoved a slim-waisted, curvy African-American model into Bane's arms.
Then he laughed loudly, "Don't worry, you don't need to pay anything."
Bane gently pushed the model away and laughed, "I think with my looks, they should pay me."
"————" Drizzt was taken aback by what he was told, and wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.
Sophia then brought over a glass of wine, which Bane took and forcibly pulled Drizzt aside.
Then he leaned close to his ear and said, "I have good news for you. Ford sent a very difficult person today and terminated the donation agreement."
"Is this good news?" Trist pondered.
"It doesn't matter to the association, but it certainly matters to you. If they continue to cooperate with our association, it's impossible for the association to do anything to oppose their agenda."
Drizzt didn't reply. After a moment of contemplation, he waved to Sophia.
Sofia understood and then took the three young models out.
Then she came back and proactively turned down the music using the wall-mounted device, giving Bane and Drizzt space to talk.
This action surprised Bane somewhat; he had assumed Sophia was also a young model.
Seemingly noticing Bane's confusion, Drizzt explained, "She is my daughter."
"Cough~~" Bane choked on his drink.
