Chapter 51: Space Combat, Balancing Energy
At this moment, above Stark Tower in New York, Chen Tian looked like a true Celestial, bathed in a sea of thunder, each movement and stillness seemingly possessing endless divine might...
"Thor, compared to him, can your dad do any better?"
Stark asked Thor without hesitation.
"..." Thor.
"Damn it!! You really have a filthy mouth!! What do you mean by asking if my dad can do better?? Am I not worthy??"
However, looking at Chen Tian, who possessed endless thunderous power... Alright, I'm indeed not worthy!!!
Although Thor was a Celestial and had a divine body, and possessed the power of thunder within him, right now... to be honest, he was very weak.
If measured by Chen Tian's levels, Thor was around level three; level four or five was absolutely impossible!
Level five already represented a qualitative change, and Thor... he was a Celestial himself, with a long lifespan, and his divine body was incomparable to mortals, but his true power was at most level four.
Therefore, Chen Tian could completely crush Thor.
"Not bad, not bad..."
Chen Tian chuckled. Looking at the wormhole above, he knew there was still a very massive army inside. There were at least five of those giant monsters, along with other Chitauri. If he killed them all... reaching level seven would be easy, right???
As for how Chen Tian would breathe in the Universe... He was no longer at the mortal level, but at the immortal level, fully capable of traversing the starry sky and surviving in the Universe. So, going there and breaking through to level seven in the Universe, wouldn't that be great???
"Leng Feng, Firebird, I'll leave the ground to you. I'm going for a spin in the Universe."
After speaking, Chen Tian stepped on a Shadow Soldier and flew toward the wormhole...
"Damn it... still can't fly. Crap... this stuff is just not as good as cultivation. You can use spiritual energy to fly, but this lightning energy can't do that."
Chen Tian felt helpless. He hadn't drawn anything that allowed for flight yet. Although he had built a fleet of space combat fighters, he didn't want to sit in them. How could that be as satisfying as flying on his own???
"Boom, boom, boom...!!!"
[Ding—Host killed a living being, proficiency +1.5.]
[Ding—Host killed a living being, proficiency +1.7.]
[Ding—Host killed a living being, proficiency +1.68.]
...
Wherever Chen Tian went, the Chitauri Army flying out of the wormhole was completely annihilated, and beautiful notification sounds rang in Chen Tian's ears.
"What the... Taotie, you bastard, follow him! The space combat fighters, why aren't you following him? If Mr. Chen Tian dies, even if we all commit suicide, we won't be able to escape the blame!!"
Firebird from the Red Cell team gritted his teeth and roared in the chat channel as he saw this scene in the sky.
"I know! I don't need you to tell me, just handle the ground."
With a roar, three space combat fighters followed him up. Below was their main battlefield!!
Of course... not just them, there were also countless Shadow Soldiers taking away the Chitauri Army one by one...
This caused the various special forces to wail again... If you're leaving, fine, but why didn't you leave these for us???
As for the Stark protagonist group... well, they had completely become bystanders.
...
"Boom..."
"Went to the Universe... As expected, I wasn't wrong."
After Sorcerer Supreme Gu Yi killed a Chitauri, she looked at the wormhole.
She had been paying attention to Chen Tian long ago. It was also because of that time that she saw certain future images within the energy emitted by the Time Stone. After seeing those images, Sorcerer Supreme Gu Yi chose Chen Tian.
She indulged Chen Tian. No matter what he did, even if he killed many people, it didn't matter.
Because once those images became reality, Earth would be the supreme existence of the entire Universe!!
...
"Boom, boom, boom...!!!"
Chen Tian stepped into the wormhole, no longer hiding his lightning energy, which instantly covered an area of ten miles!! Everything that touched the lightning energy was completely annihilated!!
"Whoosh..."
The next moment, a flame appeared in Chen Tian's hand... This was the Fire Ability, which Chen Tian had drawn not long ago. The Fire Ability also needed to be leveled up; otherwise, it would remain at level one.
[Ding—Host killed a living being, proficiency +100!]
[Ding—Fire Ability upgraded to Lv2.]
[Ding—Host killed a living being, proficiency +124.]
[Ding—Host killed a living being, proficiency +124.]
[Ding—Host killed a living being, proficiency +124.]
...
[Ding—Fire Ability upgraded to Lv3.]
(Abilities level up very quickly before level five. Normal people are level 1, not to mention these aliens. I'm writing this here in case the readers forget.)
Standing in the sea of thunder, Chen Tian's whole body turned red. The terrifying energy caused Chen Tian's body temperature to skyrocket instantly!!
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
The massive Fire energy within his body tried to occupy his entire body, but the next moment, the Dark Energy in his eyes and the lightning energy between his eyebrows seemed to have a life of their own, directly blocking the Fire energy. In fact... the excess Fire energy was directly devoured by the two other energies!!
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
The next moment, the Fire energy seemed to have a life of its own as well. It became afraid and went directly into Chen Tian's heart!!
Fire is one of the Five Elements, and human organs also correspond to the Five Elements. Among the five internal organs of the human body, the heart, with its burning heart fire, belongs to the Fire element; the kidneys, with their kidney water deficiency, belong to the Water element; the liver belongs to the Wood element; the spleen belongs to the Earth element; and the lungs belong to the Metal element. As for the five sensory organs—the eyes belong to Wood, the tongue belongs to Fire, the mouth belongs to Earth, the nose belongs to Metal, and the ears belong to Water. Besides that, even emotions have attributes: anger belongs to Wood, joy belongs to Fire, contemplation belongs to Earth, sadness belongs to Metal, and fear belongs to Water.
Therefore, at first, the Fire energy thought Chen Tian's body had no other abilities, so it wanted to occupy the entire body. But his eyes had already gathered Dark Energy, and there was lightning energy between his eyebrows. Besides, Chen Tian would definitely draw other abilities in the future, so it was impossible to let the Fire energy gather throughout his whole body. Furthermore... the Fire energy and other energies would certainly not coexist...
Take Shendu, for example; he possessed the twelve talismans, one of which was the Tiger Talisman. The Tiger Talisman was used to balance energy, allowing these energies to coexist within Shendu. Chen Tian currently didn't have many sources of energy, so he hadn't reached that level of Shendu yet.
"I have to say, abilities still level up quickly before level five."
Chen Tian felt his own body, noting that he had become a bit stronger. Subsequently, Chen Tian's eyes looked at the massive space warship in front...
"Kill!!!"
In an instant, countless Shadow Soldiers appeared behind Chen Tian!!
"Boom, boom, boom...!!!"
Countless explosions resounded throughout the Universe, and many Chitauri were instantly annihilated!!
"Uh... brothers, I feel like our coming here was a waste of time."
In the three space fighters behind him, three super-gene soldiers looked at Chen Tian, who was slaughtering everything in front, and were speechless.
"It doesn't matter. As long as Mr. Chen Tian is fine, it's fine if we wasted our time. At least we won't face a court-martial, right??"
"That's true. Mr. Chen Tian didn't even say a word before coming here. If he had met with any misfortune, we would have all had to go up."
Chapter 52: Ability Breakthrough, The Tesseract and Mind Scepter Are Mine
"Ding—Host killed a living being, Proficiency +100!"
"Ding—Fire Ability upgraded to Lv4."
"Ding—Host killed a living being, Proficiency +124."
"Ding—Host killed a living being, Proficiency +124."
"Ding—Host killed a living being, Proficiency +124."
...
"Ding—Fire Ability upgraded to Lv5."
"Boom...!!!"
The rich fire energy broke through the shackles. In an instant, the temperature within a radius of several kilometers soared by dozens of degrees. The closer one got to Chen Tian, the higher the temperature. Crimson flames burned fiercely on Chen Tian's body, and the terrifying high temperature surged outward in waves. Under this terrifying heat, the surrounding meteorites were instantly annihilated!
However, it was very strange...
In the Universe, distances should be calculated in light-years, yet for Chen Tian, none of that applied. His terrifying fire energy was still gathering and covering an area of several kilometers!!
"Holy shit!!! Run!!!"
One of the genetic super soldier air force pilots roared and instantly fled several kilometers away!
The other two saw this and did the same, not hesitating to fly away in their fighters.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...!!!"
Waves of heat steamed forth. Around Chen Tian, the warships on both sides, or the Chitauri Army, were like wax figures encountering high heat; they either melted instantly, turning red under the terrifying roasting of the flames, and then were annihilated...
In the Universe, ten kilometers away, a wave of heat rushed toward them...
"Damn it... Brothers, I'm stunned. Mr. Chen Tian is like the God of Fire. I'm ten kilometers away, and my fighter is already heating up..."
"Damn, who's saying otherwise? No, no, we have to go further, otherwise we'll really become roasted suckling pigs."
Several genetic super soldier pilots were sweating, and they didn't hesitate to fly further away.
"Wait, Taotie, what are you guys doing in the Universe??"
Leng Feng and the others had finished dealing with the Chitauri Army on the ground and were asking in the chat channel.
"Oh my god! Old Leng, you guys missed out. You didn't come to the Universe. Holy shit... Mr. Chen Tian is like a real god. In the Universe, he is completely unrestricted. Fire covers everything; everything around is either annihilated by the flames or becomes roasted meat, and then annihilated. There is nothing else..."
"That's right, also, Fire Bird, when are you going to compare your fire with Mr. Chen Tian? That's just a nickname for you, he is the real deal when it comes to Fire. Wait, I'll take a photo and send it to you."
...
After speaking, all the special forces soldiers saw an image inside the qiankun group combat mecha.
They immediately exclaimed, "Holy shit," "Damn," and so on. It had to be said...
This image was indeed very shocking!
Chen Tian was surrounded by a sea of lightning, and covered in endless fire energy. The two energies converged, and there was a huge cosmic warship in front. This scene...
If the old guys in the Academy of Science or the Academy of Astronomy knew, wouldn't they go crazy??
"Terrifying. Ever since I got the Genetic Serum, seeing Mr. Chen Tian like this... I don't even know if technology can reach this level..."
He Chenguang sighed helplessly.
"That must be possible. Don't forget, we only got the first-generation Genetic Serum. I heard from our superiors that Mr. Chen Tian is already researching the second or third generation."
"Then I have to save up more military merits, otherwise, I might not be the first in line next time."
...
In the Universe, Chen Tian was unaware of the shock in the hearts of all the soldiers. At this moment, he was bathed in flames, the violent fire energy sweeping through everything, almost drying out his blood and cells. Especially his jade-like skeleton, which seemed to have been forged and quenched countless times, and one could even see fire-colored thin lines faintly flowing inside the bones.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
Streams of black gas steamed out of Chen Tian's body and were then completely evaporated. These were some deeper toxins. Perhaps before breaking through, these didn't count as toxins, but as he broke through the shackles again, these low-level things became burdens that needed to be removed to make the body more perfect and stronger!
The monstrous sea of fire rendered the space above the Universe red. The terrifying high temperature almost destroyed everything around Chen Tian. With Chen Tianas the center, a radius of ten kilometers almost turned into a blank zone. The cosmic warships on both sides, encountering such terrifying heat waves, were all incinerated by the terrifying high temperature.
"Whoosh, whoosh...!!!"
In an instant!
Chen Tian opened his eyes, and the flames in his eyes condensed into reality. His gaze swept over, and the surrounding sea of fire twisted because of it; space became very unstable, and it seemed as if there was a faint feeling that it was about to crack.
Taking a deep breath, the spreading sea of fire surged in from all directions like a whale swallowing water, and then was swallowed into Chen Tian's abdomen through his nostrils. The boiling fire element energy roared in his body, his heart beating vigorously, swallowing all the fire element energy.
The heart belongs to Fire. Under the shroud of massive fire element energy, the entire heart seemed to be burning with raging flames, just like a geothermal furnace.
The sea of fire that had spread over a radius of ten kilometers disappeared. Chen Tian looked down at the cosmic warship that had been destroyed in front of him and couldn't help but scratch his head.
"Why is the commotion of this breakthrough so big? This is almost becoming a mobile volcano. If anyone provokes me next time, I'll go directly to their doorstep to break through!!!"
This time, Chen Tian's Fire Ability had also been upgraded to Level 5, undergoing another transformation. However, his Lightning Ability was still lacking a bit, but that was fine.
There was still more to come, so what was there to be afraid of???
There are so many creatures in the Universe, as well as so-called gods and ghosts, and even Zeus. If I kill him, I'll level up at least one rank, right???
"Time to go back, but..."
Now the cosmic warship has been destroyed, and the first wave of the war is over. I can build Earth, open the near-Earth orbit defense system, and also the Doutian Star Dou series...
But Chen Tian looked at the Tesseract below, which was erupting with terrifying energy...
This thing seems to have an endless supply of energy, which is perfect for the current Suiren Void Engine. Then there would be no need to consume the energy in his own body.
"Hmm, the Tesseract, the Mind Scepter, I want both of them."
After speaking, Chen Tian glanced at the three space combat fighters that had run far away and touched his ear: "Brothers, let's go home."
"Okay, Mr. Chen Tian."
The channel immediately replied, and then they followed Chen Tian into the wormhole.
And everyone below was watching, but... Chen Tianstepped on the Black Bat and came to the Tesseractinstrument...
"Little Tian, those bastards are throwing a nuke at New York!"
At this moment, Gu Qingshan's voice came through Chen Tian's earpiece: "Run! Those bastards are scared after seeing our special forces and space combat fighters, and they want to destroy us all in one go!!!"
"Heh, isn't that their true nature? Such old hypocrites."
Chen Tian chuckled.
"Mr. Chen Tian... those politicians..."
"I know."
Stark also flew over wanting to say something, but Chen Tian nodded: "Tiandao, control a qiankun group combat mecha, wrap up the nuke, and send it to the Universe."
"As for the apology gift... the Tesseract and the Mind Scepter are mine."
Chapter 53: Analyzing the Tesseract, Then I'll Just Have Them All Killed
Meanwhile, within the special forces unit.
"Click, click..."
"Whoosh...!!!"
Before one of the soldiers wearing a qiankun group combat mecha could react, the armor on his body instantly flew off and headed toward the sea!
"Damn it! My... my equipment!!!"
"Don't worry. This set is ruined, but Little Chen Tian has plenty more."
Gu Qingshan's laughter reached everyone's ears. Soon, the nuke appeared in front of the qiankun group combat mecha!
The Heavenly Dao controlled the qiankun group combat mecha to directly envelope the nuke, and it charged toward the wormhole at an even faster speed!!
Below.
After hearing what Chen Tian said, Stark looked bitter: "Sir, you know... they won't agree to this..."
"I am not asking for permission, nor am I informing them; I am giving an order!!"
Upon hearing this, his eyes turned cold, and a terrifying murderous intent emerged!!
"This time, they tried to kill me. As an Earthling, for the sake of the Tesseract and the Mind Scepter, I will forgive them. However, next time, they will definitely pay the price!"
Chen Tian looked at Stark with deep meaning: "If they want war, then we shall have war. Regardless of the outcome, it will never be like it was decades ago."
The latter remained silent after hearing this, not knowing what he was thinking...
Chen Tian stopped paying attention to Stark and fixed his gaze on the energy device carrying the Space Stone...
"I wonder if I can analyze the Space Stone? If the analysis is successful, I could create a Space Stone out of thin air..."
Chen Tian rubbed his chin in thought. The Space Stone is one of the six Infinity Stones of the Universe, while the Void Engine is the centerpiece of another world. Whether it's Ge Xiaolun or so-called gods, they all have their own engines.
The pinnacle items of two worlds colliding...
Heh, it's actually a bit exciting, isn't it??
Furthermore, for Chen Tian, the greatest utility of the Space Stone and the Mind Stone is their boundless energy!
Look at the Marvel World; the Space Stone is passed around like a tool, and later it was even held by Thanos, who snapped his fingers twice. Although the last time was to destroy the stones, but...
There is no denying that the energy of the Infinity Stones is truly immense!!
Therefore, if the Void Engine can analyze the stones, it can naturally recreate them. By then, Space Stones will be a dime a dozen...
Emmmm... maybe not a dime a dozen. After all, the Space Stone is one of the Infinity Stones. If it were truly analyzed, the energy required to forge one... would be extremely vast!!
Subsequently, Chen Tian said in his mind: "Suiren Void Engine, try to analyze this thing."
[Analyzing target...]
[Tesseract, built to contain the Space Stone.]
[The Space Stone possesses the full power of space and is one of the six Infinity Stones in the Marvel Universe.]
[Analyzing the energy principles of the Space Stone...]
[Analyzing...]
[0.**... 1%]
[0.**... 2%]
Two crisp notification sounds instantly stunned Chen Tian!
The long string of zeros after the decimal point was simply maddening!
He had long expected that analyzing the Infinity Stoneswould be very difficult.
However, he really didn't expect it to be this difficult!
After all, the Infinity Stones are among the top divine artifacts in the Marvel Universe.
Even Thanos could only unleash a very small portion of their power.
To fully analyze it using the Void Engine, it would likely take a considerable amount of time.
However, this is also because there is too little data on this Universe in the database.
Otherwise, it should be possible to speed up this process.
Fortunately, Chen Tian had anticipated this situation and had a backup plan.
[Stopping analysis, recording the material composition and atomic structure of the Space Stone.]
[Recording...]
[0.001%]
[0.002%]
[0.003%]
Unlike analysis, now he is just using the Male Core's ability to record all the data and information of the Space Stone.
It is equivalent to transcribing an ancient poem word-for-word and saving it in the database.
Without needing to understand the underlying principles.
In this way, he can review the relevant knowledge and theories in the database at any time in the future.
Once he fully understands the principles, he will be able to unleash the power of the Space Stone.
Chen Tian slowly let out a sigh of relief.
This progress is relatively easier to accept.
After all, the Infinity Stones are one of the top divine artifacts in the Marvel world.
Possessing the most primal power in the Universe.
The six Infinity Stones combined are almost equivalent to the entire Marvel Universe!
Wanting to understand its principles based on the existing knowledge in the database.
The time it would take would be quite long!
However, if it is just recording the material composition and atomic structure.
It would only take less than thirty hours to complete.
Furthermore, if it is just recording, there is no need to worry about interruptions.
Next, it is time to close the space portal.
"Suiren Void Engine, turn off this piece of junk."
Chen Tian flicked his hand, and the recorded data and information were instantly uploaded to the database.
[Changing target.]
[Analyzing device principles...]
[Target is primitive mechanical and physical principles, etc...]
[Primary matter definition, advanced concept rewriter.]
[Anti-light energy.]
[Anti-dark energy.]
[Anti-Void.]
[Altering the principle of conservation of energy.]
[Isolating the device's energy extraction from the Tesseract.]
[Isolating...]
[10%.]
[30%.]
...
Very quickly, the device could be seen losing its luster to the naked eye, and the Tesseract at the center consequently retracted its energy...
The wormhole above also began to shrink.
"This..."
This scene left Stark and Doctor Selvig, who were on the side, looking completely bewildered.
They knew about this device's energy shield; it appeared by relying on the energy emitted by the Tesseract, but the Chen Tian before them just stared at the device...
And then...
And then it shut down on its own???
Since when could a stare do that???
That is too awesome, right??
Chen Tian ignored them, grabbing the Tesseract in his hand, while the Shadow Legion also brought over the Mind Scepter...
"Alright brothers, let's go back..."
"I don't think you all can just leave without a word."
At this moment, just as Chen Tian was about to say "home," Fury appeared in the sky above the city aboard the aircraft carrier...
And Fury's voice emanated from within the aircraft carrier.
"Mr. Chen Tian, we thank you for coming to help, but... you cannot take the Tesseract."
"Oh? You want to fight?" Chen Tian chuckled.
"Click, click, click..."
Below, tens of thousands of qiankun group combat mecharose into the air, hovering in mid-air. Three space combat fighters stood in the rear, countless Shadow Soldiersappeared, and even Dugu Tuo stood in front of Chen Tian.
"Mr. Chen Tian, this is the last thing I want to see... You know, it's those damn politicians..."
"Then wouldn't it be solved if I just had them all killed?"
Chapter 54: I've Been Wanting to Fight for a Long Time, Obeying Discipline Can Win You Long Xiaoyun
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone watching this scene was stunned...
"Let... let them all die???"
"How can such cold words come out of your 37-degree mouth!!!"
"If they're all dead, what are we supposed to do here? Although those guys are idiots, I have to say, we need those idiots right now, okay??"
"Forget it... You'd better talk to them yourself..."
Fury didn't want to deal with it anymore.
To be honest, ever since Fury learned just now that those idiots were actually going to drop a nuke on New York, his heart had turned icy cold...
Although those idiots wanted to wipe out the Chitauri Army, including... the people Chen Tian brought, but... don't forget, New York has a huge resident population.
Especially after the recent incident with Iron Man, even more people have flocked here. You're going to drop a nuke in New York? Won't that kill everyone??
Especially... Fury was very, very, very unwilling to face Chen Tian!
Why??
This person—his intuition told him never to provoke him, or he would die a miserable death. As for the nuke...
The guy can grant Stark immortality; you think he doesn't have it? What's the use of a nuke?? Stark once had his brains bashed out, and wasn't he perfectly fine afterwards?
You only have one life, and you're going to provoke someone who can't die???
What kind of joke is that!!!
So, Fury just couldn't be bothered with it anymore.
Soon, the image of a few people appeared in front of the aircraft carrier.
"Citizen of New York, I hope you can hand over the Tesseract and the scepter given by that monster. This is your duty as a citizen. In addition, you must join..."
"Quit your damn yapping. If you want to fight, then fight. Did you forget about that idiot who kicked the bucket a while ago? The one whose whole family was wiped out?"
Before he could finish, Chen Tian directly interrupted: "I'll give you ten seconds to rephrase that, or else you can go join him."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone on screen remembered. A few months ago, an old colleague seemed to have died, and his whole family died just as thoroughly. They searched for a long time but couldn't find a single trace of the killer...
Was it this person who did it??
"Damn it! You damn yellow-skinned man, you..."
"Swish..."
Just as another person on the screen was cursing in anger, a figure suddenly appeared behind him, and a katana in its hand directly chopped off his head!
This scene... terrified everyone...
Just... just like that, he died???
A living, breathing person, right in front of countless people... just died like that??
That figure who chopped off his head was one of the Shadow Soldiers by Chen Tian's side!!
"Isn't Mr. Chen Tian too badass? He can just kill that kind of figure casually??"
"What the hell do you mean by 'that kind of figure'? Who does he think he is!"
"Exactly. Damn, they were so arrogant before, let them try acting high and mighty now. I have to say, Mr. Chen Tian's temper really suits me; he doesn't drag things out at all."
"He has the confidence to back it up. Look behind him, holy crap... If I didn't have eyes, I would've thought a dark cloud was rolling in."
"Yeah, they say these are all Mr. Chen Tian's servants. Hehehe, these things come and go without a trace. And... such a huge crowd, there must be at least a hundred thousand, right?"
"The most critical thing is that these things can instantly appear behind those idiots. They are simply weapons of assassination and murder!!"
Within the qiankun group combat mecha channel, tens of thousands of voices erupted, all filled with shock and excitement.
No kidding!!
What could be more exciting right now than slaughtering an idiot??
It's one thing that we kindly came to help, but you're going to drop a nuke on us?? Dropping a nuke is one thing, and the Tesseract was meant as an apology, but you're actually going to block us??
You think you're something special, huh???
As for whether we're afraid of that bunch of idiots...
No kidding!!
Did you think Chen Tian's research these past few days was just for fun???
Chen Tian had long since established an energy shield using the Suiren Void Engine. Although it was simple, it was more than enough for now.
This energy shield covers our entire home, and even covers our front door. Forget nukes; even an interstellar orbital cannon would need at least ten shots to break through it.
Besides that, there's the Bai Qi series that Chen Tianmentioned last time. Now, the Heavenly Dao has also forged them, and they can fire at any time.
Therefore, Chen Tian dared to let these technologies appear in the open. After all... it's time to show some muscle, isn't it??
If you want to fight, then come. I'll blast you to bits with an orbital cannon!
Orbital Cannon: Fight? I've been wanting to fight for a long time!
"Five seconds left."
Chen Tian calmly took out a cigarette, and a Shadow Soldier lit it for him.
His voice was cold and dignified, as if the death of a person was no big deal...
"You... can take it..."
Just before the five seconds were up, the leader on the screen finally spoke those words, his face already flushing bright red...
When had he ever suffered such humiliation? When had they ever suffered such humiliation!!
How many years has it been???
Since this place was established, how many years has it been since they faced such a threat???
But now, just one person was suppressing them so much that they didn't dare to say a single word of dissent, because if they did, they would really die!!!
"Let's go, brothers, let's go home." Chen Tian stepped on the back of a Black Bat Soldier and flew towards the east.
"Let's go! Going home!!"
"Hahaha, going home to eat! Goodbye, everyone~ Goodbye~ We'll come visit again in a while~"
"Goodbye everyone, if you need anything, come find me in the east~"
"Hahaha, let's go home, let's go home, going home!!"
"Every special forces soldier wants a wife! You want one, I want one, there aren't that many to go around~ Obeying discipline can win you Long Xiaoyun~ Being naughty and troublesome gets you a Shi Qingsong~"
Many qiankun group combat mecha followed behind Chen Tian, their laughter so loud it could seemingly be heard from miles away.
Back at home, Gu Qingshan laughed heartily, his eyes brimming with tears...
This time, we've really held our heads high!
This time, we really have held our heads high!!
Even those idiots didn't dare to retort; isn't that holding our heads high??
How did those idiots treat our family before? We remember it all!!
"I say, Old Gu, what the hell are you crying for! Come, let's drink!!"
Xu Mingwu poured a glass of special-supply liquor, laughed up at the sky, and said to the screen in front of him: "This act is worth a big drink!"
"Not bad! We've finally stood up! We are no longer suppressed by these idiots!"
"The Patriarch knows about this too, right? Should we go find The Patriarch and have a drink?"
"Go to hell, The Patriarch has so much to do every day, especially after this incident, all sorts of troublesome things have come up. Don't go bother The Patriarch."
"That's true, come on, let's drink!"
In another place, The Patriarch was also watching this scene, nodding with a smile: "Child, make a scene. You can completely make a scene now. I'll take responsibility for anything! If they want to fight, then let's fight! I want to see... after decades of silence, whether the sword in our home... is still sharp!!!"
Chapter 55: Thanos Corrects the Universe, Du Tian Xing Dou Successfully Established
Chen Tian returned home with many warriors; as for the remaining matters...
Heh, from now on, they could either whine and complain verbally, or they could simply accept it. As for fighting??
Don't be ridiculous. How could they fight? What right did they have to fight??
Just those three space fighters alone could roam the Earthat will. Their radar was like a spy's, completely undetectable, right? Not to mention the Bai Qi Series Orbital Cannons.
With one shot, it wasn't just their homes that would be gone—an entire city would be wiped out. So, how could they fight??
What right did they have to fight???
Chen Tian returned to the laboratory.
The Suiren Void Engine was still recording the Space Stone within the Tesseract.
"Suiren, begin research on the Du Tian Xing Dou Series - Planetary Defense System."
Chen Tian looked at the Tesseract placed before him; behind it was the medium for the Void Engine to absorb energy: "The energy will be based on the Tesseract for absorption, and those materials will also be created using the energy from the Tesseract's Space Stone and the Mind Scepter from the scepter."
"Understood, Mr. Chen Tian."
Suiren began crafting the materials needed for the Planetary Defense System.
Meanwhile.
In space, on a shattered planet.
"My respected and powerful Master, Loki has failed."
A monster dressed in ornate black clothes lifted a finger, and a creature was instantly pierced by a sharp needle.
Though he was a monster, his entire being exuded a sense of nobility and elegance, making one feel that he looked down upon everything—he was the ultimate aristocrat.
He... was the most elegant glass cannon in the Marvel Universe, Ebony Maw!!
At this moment, Ebony Maw knelt on one knee, looking up at the giant purple monster before him with adoration, and said: "According to our information, the Space Stone that originally resided in Asgard was taken to Earth by the one called Thor and has not returned. In addition, there is the Mind Stone, and the Time Stone has always been on Earth."
(Note: Ebony Maw seems to refer to him as Master in Avengers 4. I specifically re-watched it, but I don't know the exact word, I can only look at the subtitles, so Master it is.)
The giant purple monster was, naturally, the one we commonly call the Purple Sweet Potato, Thanos!!
"Loki went to Earth and failed because another person used terrifying Fire and Lightning elements, resulting in the loss of an army."
"He was only meant to scout the way anyway. Right now, Odin's gaze is on Earth, and the Sorcerer Supreme is also on Earth. If we want to go there, those two won't make it easy for us."
Thanos spoke as he removed his armor.
Standing behind him were three other monsters: one with a physique like Thanos, one draped in a black robe, and one female...
Their eyes all revealed madness, devotion, and worship...
They were Thanos's most capable subordinates and generals, commonly known as the Black Order. Their existence seemed dedicated to helping Thanos achieve his impossible ideal.
But they did not know that the current Earth was no longer the Earth of the past. Today's technology on Earth might not completely crush them, but it certainly wouldn't be easy to invade!!
"As for that person..."
Seeing this, Ebony Maw immediately pulled out a metal cube. A projection appeared from the cube, showing Chen Tian's appearance...
"This person can be ignored. For now, we will go correct other planets."
Thanos took one look and then turned to walk into his massive starship.
Thanos was a Titan, and his own strength was incredibly powerful; he was the greatest villain in the Marvel Universe (speaking in terms of the movies, Thanos is the biggest villain). Therefore, even though Chen Tian was strong, Thanos did not believe Chen Tian had reached the level of Odin or Sorcerer Supreme Gu Yi...
But he didn't know that Chen Tian had killed Dormammu. Although he relied on Dugu Tuo, he still killed him, didn't he??
Therefore, if Chen Tian wanted to kill Thanos, he could repeat his old trick. By using the five Great Yin Demonsand the Yin Demon Realm, he could crush Thanos!
"Yes, my respected and powerful Master!!"
Ebony Maw's eyes were filled with endless fanaticism and worship. Thanos... was their faith!!
...
From then on, Earth fell into peace once again. Chen Tiancontinued to build the Planetary Defense System, not bothering with anything else. Once it was built and covered the Earth, this entire backyard would be foolproof.
Then he would continue to build the low-Earth orbit defense system and other technologies.
Two months passed. One day.
"Congratulations, Master. You have once again created history. Your legacy will be written in the history books of mankind, to be admired by billions!!"
Inside the research lab, Tian Dao's voice was filled with excitement as he congratulated Chen Tian.
Before Chen Tian was a special device. Although the device was only the size of a speck of dust, the energy it emitted was immense!!
That speck of dust shifted, transforming as if into a Universe itself, with points of light resembling countless stars, or... galaxies.
"That's enough, Tian Dao. You say that every time a new technology is developed; my ears are getting calloused," Chen Tian laughed. "The Planetary Defense System is done. Energy was the issue—the energy required for a Planetary Defense System... is massive even for us."
"But now with the Space Stone and the Mind Stone, we don't have to worry about energy at all."
"Suiren, run the calculations. Are there any errors?"
[Understood. Calculating Du Tian Xing Dou Series - Planetary Defense System...]
[Du Tian Xing Dou Series - Planetary Defense System: Features internal spatial paradoxes. Centered on Earth, it transforms the space within one light-year of Earth into a series of spatial distortions and set wormholes. Without the permission of the system Master, Chen Tian, any passerby will be randomly teleported to various locations: the Solar System, Oort Cloud, Local Interstellar Cloud, Local Bubble, Gould Belt, Orion Arm, Milky Way Galaxy, Local Group, Virgo Cluster, or Laniakea Supercluster.]
[Alternatively, they may end up inside a black hole or around one. The paradox is unpredictable and the location unknown. According to paradox calculations, if an alien civilization wanders in, the probability of reaching Earth is less than one in a billion. Even attempting to enter via the paradox is almost impossible.]
[Additionally, the Planetary Defense System is set with suppression and crushing theories, capable of overwhelming everything within the system's coverage.]
[Upon activation, errors were detected and are being corrected... Corrected. By extrapolating through the recorded Space Stone, the defense system has reached a state of perfection, exceeding even the recorded specifications.]
Chen Tian listened to Suiren's step-by-step explanation and nodded.
The Du Tian Xing Dou Series - Planetary Defense System... by universal standards, should logically be a galactic-level construct. Although it involved space, it was at a galactic scale, specifically for something like the Solar System, and didn't even involve areas outside the Solar System.
But... because Suiren had been continuously recording the Space Stone during this time, the defense system had been reinforced. Consequently, the defense system's level had been elevated by more than just one grade!!
Chapter 56: Shocking the world, I Will Bear the Infamy of the Ages!
The Space Stone is one of the six Infinity Stones that appeared after the Big Bang, so its level is naturally at the very top of the Universe.
And because of this, with the help of the Space Stone, the defense system was upgraded. Otherwise... even if the defense system involved space paradoxes, it... would at most be limited to a star system.
"Hmm, activate it. We can't just let anyone wander into our backyard, can we?" Chen Tian nodded after listening and then ordered.
"Understood."
The Suiren Void Engine immediately began to activate the Dutian Xingdou Series - Planetary Defense System!
*Whoosh...!!!*
In an instant!
The starlight emitted by the defense system in front of him suddenly expanded! Centered on it, it swept out in all directions!
Not even walls, oceans, or space itself could stop its progress...
Outside.
"W-What is this?? Projection technology???"
"Holy crap! What kind of high-tech stuff did Mr. Chen Tianinvent this time??"
"Is this thing expanding infinitely? This... is like the expansion after the Big Bang? Infinite expansion??"
"Oh my god!! No, no, I have to go ask Mr. Chen Tian right away!!"
...
The scientists sent by The Patriarch stared blankly at this scene. The infinite expansion of this thing was just like the infinite expansion after the Big Bang in the scientific community.
Don't ask why they would think of that; these scientists all knew Chen Tian was an ultimate scientific genius, so whatever he researched was bound to be incredibly awesome. Thus, it was only natural for them to make that connection.
Not just them, as the starlight expanded, everyone in our nation...
On the internet.
"Holy crap, guys! It's broad daylight and I'm seeing ghosts! I can actually see starlight..."
"You're not the only one, buddy. I was just negotiating with a client. When this thing appeared, the client thought I prepared it as a surprise and signed right away—a five million yuan deal!!"
"Incredible, truly incredible. I wonder what on Earth this is..."
"Huh? Why isn't it here... Holy crap! It's here too!!"
"This thing seems to be expanding in all directions with Tianfu as the center. Those near the mountains were the first to know. My hometown is near there, and my old man messaged me immediately."
"Tianfu... Could there be something going on in Tianfu??"
"Brothers, didn't our people appear in the west a while ago? Word is they're super genetic soldiers researched by an incredibly awesome big shot in Tianfu. This thing... is probably his doing too."
"Say no more, bro. Right now, I just want to know when this gene stuff will be rolled out to the public! I want it so bad!"
"What are you dreaming about? Public rollout? You've got to be kidding."
...
The internet was already in a frenzy, especially in Tianfu, Yuzhou, Yunzhou, and Guifu—they were the first batch to find out.
So many people were shocked, especially those in relationships...
Damn, when this thing appeared, couples got so swept up in the moment that they just grabbed each other and started kissing, to the point where their lips got all swollen...
Just imagine, you and your girlfriend (or boyfriend) are strolling down the street or sitting under a tree being all lovey-dovey, when suddenly countless starlights appear all around you.
Bathed in the starlight, your boyfriend (or girlfriend) looks like a literal fairy or deity. In that kind of atmosphere, how could you not kiss them??
Yet, the readers who reached this part suddenly sat on the floor and broke down crying: "I don't even have a girlfriend (or boyfriend)!!!"
...
New York.
"Mr. Chen Tian, what on Earth are you trying to do??"
Inside Stark Tower, Stark and Pepper were also looking at the starlight around them.
Having been informed by Jarvis that it originated from Tianfu, then... it had to be him!
Who else could it be??
And this scene shocked the entire world. How could they not know when it had covered the whole Earth in just a few minutes??
Outside the research lab.
"Master, Gu Qingshan is here to see you."
"Let him in."
Tiandao spoke to remind him. Without even turning his head, Chen Tian spoke. Soon, Gu Qingshan entered the research lab. Looking at the projection in front of Chen Tianthat was emitting brilliant starlight and continuously expanding...
He thought to himself, "As expected..."
"Xiao Tian, what is this?"
"This is the planetary defense system."
Chen Tian explained, "Ever since the Space Stone opened the wormhole last time, I've been researching this. I designed one involving a space paradox to set up a unique distorted space outside the Earth's range, effectively removing Earth from the Solar System or the Milky Way Galaxy..."
As he spoke, seeing Gu Qingshan's completely dazed expression, Chen Tian sighed. "To put it simply, it establishes a space so that from now on, no one can use wormholes to reach Earth. Having Earth as a battlefield is a very bad thing for us."
Gu Qingshan understood this sentence.
It was simply to prevent aliens from using Earth as a battlefield in the future.
"I see!"
"In the future, our goal being the sea of stars isn't just a saying. If the entities inside the defense system act up, we'll just wipe them out. But we'll have to ask The Patriarch about this. I only have one requirement: wipe out all the black devils."
Listening to Chen Tian's words, Gu Qingshan nodded.
"Mr. Chen Tian!!"
At this moment, the other scientists rushed in like madmen. Chen Tian waved his hand helplessly. "Come, let me explain the actual function and principles of this thing to you in detail..."
As they spoke, Chen Tian began discussing with the scientists. Space-related matters were outside Gu Qingshan's expertise, so he didn't understand a thing. He then left to find The Patriarch.
Inside the office.
The guards at the door let Gu Qingshan in.
"Old Gu, what's going on?" The Patriarch asked.
"Mr. Chen Tian is worried about the next battlefield being on Earth, so he researched a device. It's said to involve some sort of space paradox, setting up some kind of space outside Earth..."
Gu Qingshan scratched his head. "To put it simply, it's to prevent Earth from becoming a battlefield."
"Hmm... Xiao Tian has thought things through very carefully. After all, our goals are no longer limited to Earth. Every region is now using energy engines, so we won't lack electricity or other power for at least a century. Therefore, right now..."
The Patriarch clasped his hands. "The space combat fighter fleets have been established. It's time to set our sights outward..."
"What about those other places on Earth..."
"If those guys behave, then so be it. If not... then we'll just wipe them out. We have the confidence to say that now!!"
"Yes... However, Mr. Chen Tian said just now that all the black devils must be completely wiped out."
"As it should be. Since it's Mr. Chen Tian's request, then... have we finished dealing with those in our own country?"
"Almost. The black devils in Yue City have been mostly cleared out, leaving only those children... Many people are saying, wouldn't it be too inhumane to kill them? After all, some of them carry our own people's blood..."
"Inhumane? Some things require sacrifice. Whatever mistakes, whatever insults, I will bear the infamy of the ages myself!!"
Chapter 57: Another Lucky Draw, Tso Lan's Gravity, Jiang Chen's Blood
Just like that, a day passed, and the Planetary Defense System had already covered the entire Earth!
From the outside, nothing could be seen at all, and even the starlight on the inside had dissipated. However... the Planetary Defense System was indeed active, and it was impossible to enter Earth from the outside through wormholes, space, or other means.
One could even say that the Space Stone might not necessarily be able to enter Earth. After all, mathematically speaking... the Planetary Defense System was upgraded through the Space Stone. In theory, the Planetary Defense System and the Space Stone shared the same origin.
In this way, it would be extremely difficult for the Space Stone to enter Earth. As the saying goes, the one who knows you best is your enemy, and the hardest opponent to defeat is yourself.
Therefore, with the Planetary Defense System in place, for characters like Thanos or Ebony Maw in the Marvel movies who want to enter Earth? That is absolute wishful thinking!!
"Tiandao, continue building the Space Elevator. Once it's built, we can gradually proceed with the Nantianmen Series."
Chen Tian stretched his back. Having just explained these scientific and technological theories to those "students," he was exhausted. Right now, he just wanted to get some good rest.
"Understood, Master. According to your preference of wrapping yourself in a blanket while blasting the air conditioning, I have turned on the cooling for you. I must say, your tastes are quite unique."
There was a hint of amusement in Tiandao's voice. If he weren't an artificial intelligence, one could easily picture a teasing expression on his face...
"Alright, I'll leave the rest to you guys. We have all the materials, enough to build our current technology. Also, we need to keep producing the second-generation Genetic Serum. In a while, I'll upgrade Old Xu and the others..."
"And then... it'll be time to talk to The Patriarch about whether to popularize it after the third generation. After all, we're only responsible for research; what happens after popularization is up to them..."
As he spoke, Chen Tian left the research lab and returned to his bedroom.
"Oh right, it's been so long since I did a lucky draw. I almost forgot I even had a system."
Chen Tian laughed, and with a thought, he activated it.

"Seventy-four times??? Sixty times in two months, does that mean I haven't done a lucky draw in two and a half months??"
Chen Tian stared at his personal interface in a daze. Two and a half months??? Has it really been that long???
"Well, I forgot... I really lost track of time..."
"System, start the lucky draw."

...
Soon, a vast amount of information appeared on the virtual projection before Chen Tian's eyes. After going through them one by one, he found that a few of them were actually useful to him!
"First, Tso Lan's ability!"
"Tso Lan is the leader of the Eight Demons, ranking first in seniority. Also known as the Moon Demon, he represents the Moon and is extremely skilled at using gravity-based magic as his primary means of combat. His attribute corresponds to the Kan Trigram in the Eight Trigrams."
"Tso Lan's physical appearance is that of a tall, long-haired humanoid demon in a reddish-purple robe with blood-red eyes and four arms. His hair is black with a purplish tint, a long snake-like tongue flickers from his mouth, and his attire is highly Easternized, resembling the clothing worn by ancient Chinese people during the Ming Dynasty."
"He is the eldest brother of the other demons, with two younger sisters (Po Kong, Bai Tza) and five younger brothers (Xiao Fung, Tzen Cong, Shendu, Dai Gui, Hsi Wu), and a nephew (Drago)."
"In jackie chan adventures, the Immortal who defeated Tso Lan was He Xiangu, and the deity's talisman used to defeat him was a lotus bud. His Moon Demon Qi remained on a white lotus bud in a lotus pond at the Eagle Zoo."
"Tso Lan possesses the innate evil nature of a demon, while also being cold, insidious, and arrogant. He was originally one of the eight ancient demon sorcerers who ruled the mortal realm. After his reign was ended, he was banished by the Immortal Generals using Qi Magic into an alternate dimension known as the Demon Netherworld."
"The portals for Tso Lan and the other demons to exit this Netherworld were all sealed by the Pan Ku Box. His overall strength is extremely formidable; he possesses Moon Magic capable of altering gravity, governing lunar gravity, Earth's gravity, and universal gravitation. By wrapping the entire Universe in gravity, he can turn planets into dead stars as their gravity changes, and he also possesses ancient and mysterious dark magic."
"And what Chen Tian had drawn was precisely Tso Lan's gravity manipulation energy!"
"In other words, Chen Tian now had the ability to manipulate gravity, and even use gravity to obliterate everything. However... this ability might also need to be upgraded like an superpower, though not necessarily. After all... he didn't need to upgrade Shendu's Immortalityability."
"Besides Tso Lan's gravity manipulation ability, the second one was Jiang Chen's blood."
"Jiang Chen in the my date with a vampire world was set up as a super war god created by the Pangu Clan!!"
"But later in the my date with a vampire world, Jiang Chenclaimed to be Pangu himself, because... he had already existed before the heavens and Earth were created..."
"It could be said that Jiang Chen in the my date with a vampire world was very contradictory. Why? Because in the setting, he was created by the Pangu Clan and sent down to protect and guard Nüwa, and later he also guarded Nüwa's primordial spirit. Yet, the TV series also said he was Pangu..."
"Therefore, it was very difficult to figure out what his true identity was."
"But... there was no doubting Jiang Chen's power."
"Perhaps many people would say the my date with a vampire world is extremely weak, and the so-called Destiny is at most at the Heavenly Immortal level and couldn't possibly be higher. But... for Marvel, if Jiang Chenwere to run amok, who could possibly defeat him??"
Chapter 58: warmogs armor, I can't figure it out, I completely can't figure it out!
In the world of my date with a vampire, as the King of Zombies, Jiang Chen himself possessed an indestructible body, immense strength, and super speed.
People bitten by Jiang Chen would turn into Second-Generation Zombies, descendants of Jiang Chen, with green eyes.
And Jiang Chen's abilities were also numerous, such as super learning ability: he could quickly learn any knowledge (including spells and the like).
His body was set as the Pangu Divine Body (immortal, indestructible, and eternal).
His soul was the Pangu Primordial Spirit (eternally true, immortal for all Eternity).
Moreover... as a zombie, he also knew Daoist magic, primordial spirit projection, black witchcraft (Blood Curse, Blood Seal, Great Blood Swastika Curse), and talisman spells.
Bloodline abilities: Nether Communication, Levitation, Illusion, Psychokinesis, Teleportation, Dark Vortex, Lightning Manipulation, Defensive Barrier, Time Control, Flight and Earth Burrowing, and Energy Projection.
Special form: Giant-winged bat.
Innate Divinity: Power of Creation (unique to Pangu, opening the heavens and splitting the earth, destroying the world, creating all things with ease); Transcending All (ignoring all laws, unbound by fate, free from causal restrictions, not based on reincarnation); Sacred Immortality (coexisting with heaven, coexisting with the Dao, without birth or death, transcending time and space, wandering beyond the material world, eternally enduring).
The ability to grant new life to others (Jiang Chen, with his own power, reincarnated the deceased true Kuang Tianyouin the form of an elf. He could not only extract and manipulate the souls of living creatures but also control and drive the undead).
Suppression ability over descendant zombies (unless they were first-generation zombies of the same level as the Pangu Clan, even if they were infinitely close, they could still be wiped out by Pangu with a flip of a hand; no amount of them would be of any use).
The ability to dominate heaven, earth, and all things in nature (ruling over all nature, dominating heaven, earth, and all things, being able to feel the changes of everything in the world, seeing the root of the world, and clearly understanding the laws governing the operation of all things).
It could be said... this monster was practically an apocalypse incarnate!!
Because of this, who wouldn't want to become a Pangu Clan zombie when watching this show? They don't fear sunlight, aren't afraid of Daoist magic, and are immortal. Although not becoming a Zombie King means having a blood addiction and not being able to eat foods freely like Jiang Chen, still...
Compared to becoming an immortal zombie who doesn't fear sunlight or Daoist magic, what did that even matter??
But this thing might be a good thing for others, after all...
The third one... warmogs armor...
"This thing... it couldn't be what I think it is, right?" Chen Tian's lips twitched slightly.
Open the description.
[Ding—warmogs armor: Summoner's Rift worldequipment. Once equipped, it adds 800 vitality, 10% energy recovery, and 200% healing effect.]
"..."
Just as expected!!
warmogs armor really is an item from LOL!!!
Originally, this thing added 200 health, 10 ability haste, and 200% health regeneration, but after the game equipment entered reality, it changed.
Vitality can be understood as: the stronger the vitality, the stronger one's physical body. Isn't that how it is in many body-tempering novels? What do they temper when they temper their bodies? It's vitality.
10% energy recovery simply means recovering energy. Previously, it took a whole day for Chen Tian's lightning energy to be completely depleted and restored, but now it only takes nine-tenths of that time...
200% healing... this is way stronger, it's practically equivalent to the Horse Talisman.
"Whatever, this gacha pull is actually not bad."
Chen Tian stretched on the large bed, "It gave me a passerby, and also gave me the blood of Zombie King Jiang Chen. Isn't it obviously telling me to turn this passerby into a zombie..."
"Hmm... the Lightning Ability can be bestowed, and so can the Fire Ability. Bestowing these two abilities on Passerby A, and letting him go kill those animals for us."
Chen Tian's abilities could be bestowed upon people, such as Stark, but there was one catch... it had to be a living being to receive it!
Previously, some people asked, since he could bestow abilities, why not give them to the Shadow Corps? Because theoretically, the Shadow Corps were not considered living beings and could not be bestowed with abilities, not even the generals like Ninja and Razor.
The prerequisite for bestowing abilities was that the recipient must be a living being, either a human or something else.
And if this Passerby A fused with the blood of Jiang Chenfrom the world of my date with a vampire, he would become a Second-Generation Zombie, or... perhaps even stronger than a second-generation, since the Second-Generation Zombies in my date with a vampire were all bitten, whereas this was a fusion.
In addition, zombies were also living beings. Although zombies were immortal, transcended the Three Realms, were not within the Five Elements, and were abandoned and discarded by the Six Paths, it was undeniable that they were still living beings, and they even possessed a powerful source origin.
If calculated... the life origin of even the most ordinary zombie was greater than that of an ordinary person, so zombies could indeed be bestowed with abilities.
"Buzz...!!!"
In an instant!
With a thought from Chen Tian, a person suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of the large bed.
"Master."
That person was Passerby A, He San. He San knelt respectfully on one knee in front of Chen Tian's bed.
"Yeah."
The latter nodded, and a drop of blood appeared in his hand. The blood was dark red in color, seemingly containing endless power within...
*Whoosh...*
In an instant!
Chen Tian flicked his finger, and that drop of blood shot straight into the center of He San's forehead!
In the next moment, He San trembled all over. That drop of blood seemed like molten lava, as if it could melt the center of He San's forehead...
"Heavenly Dao, soundproof."
"Ahhhhh...!!"
Just a split second before He San threw his head back and screamed in agony, Chen Tian spoke, and the Heavenly Dao instantly activated soundproofing.
He San screamed incessantly. A bloody hole had already been burned into the center of his forehead by the dark red blood. He trembled all over, tearing at his own body as if this could alleviate the pain.
*Buzz, buzz, buzz...*
With a thought from Chen Tian, instantly—
He San was suspended in mid-air, unable to move...
Gravity!
Tso Lan's gravity manipulation ability!!
Chen Tian used gravity manipulation to control He San, while merging the Fire Ability and Lightning Ability into He San's body to help him integrate that drop of blood...
Don't look down on Jiang Chen's blood just because it was from the world of my date with a vampire; it was still not something an ordinary person could withstand!
After an unknown amount of time, He San stopped screaming. His body no longer had a heartbeat, and his flesh had become incredibly hard. Two fangs grew from his mouth, and his eyes turned purple—not the green of a second-generation or the red of a first-generation, but... a mutated zombie like Ma Xiaoling, purple!!
"He San is just a passerby, not some special bloodline. Why did he turn purple? I can't figure it out... I completely can't figure it out..." Chen Tian shook his head, completely baffled.
This bloodline stuff was really tricky, after all, he had never used it himself...
"Master."
When Chen Tian withdrew the gravity, He San knelt on one knee on the ground, still incomparably respectful.
"Hmm, I have already bestowed the Fire Ability and Lightning Ability upon you. Go kill the insects and pests in this world, such as mosquitoes, cockroaches, and rats. Of course, if you're hungry, go to the the Japanese archipelagoto feed, but... do not turn them into zombies."
Chapter 59: He San Goes on a Killing Spree, While Idiots Stab in the Back?
Right now, in the bedroom, Chen Tian looked at He San, who had already become a mutated zombie, and smiled. "Well, I have granted you the Fire Ability and Lightning Ability. Go and kill the pests of the world, like mosquitoes, cockroaches, and rats. I need you to use your abilities to help me level up. Of course, if you get hungry, go to the the Japanese archipelago to eat, but... don't let them turn into zombies."
After all... although He San was not as strong as Jiang Chen from my date with a vampire, because of the mutation from Jiang Chen's blood, he was now also part of the Pangu Clan. If he bit anyone, that person would turn into a Third-generation Zombie.
Chen Tian wanted He San to go to the the Japanese archipelago to "eat" when he was hungry, but he didn't want to create a whole bunch of unwanted things...
"Master, if you want to kill living creatures, why don't you wait until I've bitten those people before killing them?"
"After being bitten by me, those people will turn into Third-generation Zombies. Their strength will definitely be far greater than ordinary humans, and they will also become so-called monsters. You can then kill them with a clear conscience and a perfectly justifiable reason, while I can fill my stomach. It kills two birds with one stone. Why not??"
"In addition, is Master worried they might hide? There's no need to worry. Once bitten by me, I can easily know their locations. Even if Master doesn't want to kill them in the public eye or... let others know, we can still do it in the shadows."
"..." Chen Tian.
Holy shit!!!
You actually make a lot of sense.
How did I not even think of that??
Could it be that my brain turned to mush just because I got too powerful??
"Ahem, you have a point. Go ahead then. Of course, don't hold back on the abilities I granted you. The more you kill, the stronger those granted abilities will become."
"Also, now that I have you, why should I do it myself? Can't you just kill them after they turn into zombies???"
"Yes, Master. Your servant will bring back some 'late-night snacks' for you tonight." Upon hearing this, He San left the bedroom.
"Late-night snacks... are these snacks of yours even decent?!"
But He San was right. The strength and origin of the zombies he bit would indeed be far stronger than ordinary humans.
Currently, Chen Tian didn't kill ordinary people. First, the boost was too small. Second... this was his backyard, after all. If he killed everyone, how would he have fun? (Of course, the blacks didn't count; they didn't count as human).
Third, did he even have the time? Previously, researching that useless thing had taken him several months, and both times were stacked lucky draws, okay?
In addition, Chen Tian hadn't gone to kill those animals because of these reasons. Although he knew that many small drops make an ocean, he simply didn't have the time. Now it was perfect; with He San around, whatever He Sankilled would also boost Chen Tian's own strength...
Ah!
This is so satisfying!!
...
Chen Tian went to sleep, but many people couldn't sleep, especially those livestock breeders...
Damn it, a ton of animals died out of nowhere, and they couldn't even find the carcasses. How bizarre...
As for the the Japanese archipelago, dozens of people mysteriously vanished today. However... compared to the over ten million Japanese who had suddenly disappeared before, this was completely negligible.
...
Meanwhile, at the Avengers Tower.
"Impossible!! What you are doing is starting a war! You are provoking him! It will lead us to a miserable death, and many people will die!!!"
Stark stared at the figures on the virtual projection screen in front of him and stood up to roar in anger.
And it wasn't just Stark here; Dr. Banner, Thor, CaptainRogers, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and the bald egg Furywere also present.
"Why is it impossible? Stark, you are an absolute genius. We have unanimously agreed that we cannot let your genius brain be wasted on playing with iron forever. You must cooperate with our scientists now to research artificial intelligence!"
One of the people on the screen spoke.
"Exactly. Do you know what they have over there? They have an orbital cannon system!! What was that starlight from before?? Our spies say it's a planetary defense system, completely protecting Earth, and it even has the function of suppressing and crushing anything inside Earth! If they decide to do something, what are we supposed to do??"
"You need to fight for what you ought to do as a citizen!!"
...
"Pfft..."
Hearing the words of the people on the screen, everyone present fell silent, but Thor couldn't help but chuckle.
"You mortals really are incredibly boring."
As Thor Odinson said this, one of the people on the screen spoke up, "We know you are a god, Thor, but this is an Earth matter. We don't want you to interfere."
"Interfere? Why would I interfere? I just heard a boring joke, that's all."
Thor laughed, taking a sip from a bottle of beer. "He went through so much trouble to protect Earth, making it impossible for anyone from outside Earth to travel here through space. Right now, even I can't freely come and go through the Bifrost."
"And what are you doing? You're thinking about destroying it, about controlling it. You humans really are too boring."
Once Thor said this, several people showed bitter expressions, especially Captain Rogers. His philosophy had evolved from protecting the Eagle's ordinary citizens to now protecting the entire Earth.
And now, his superiors wanted him to do something that would harm Earth...
And then there was Stark.
When he learned not long ago that the starlight was protecting Earth, he was actually very happy in his heart.
After seeing the wormhole, Stark had developed the idea of arming Earth, just like in the original storyline. And Chen Tian had already achieved it. At least... at least the battlefield would be kept outside of Earth, wouldn't it?
But now...
These bastards actually want me to research artificial intelligence so they can control everything over there...
Not just the two of them, but even Dr. Banner and Fury felt completely helpless. Why couldn't these idiots see the situation clearly??
Don't forget that he has those elusive servants. How can you be so sure those servants aren't watching us from the shadows right now???
When will these idiots finally get some brains???
But then again, if they weren't idiots, how could they have become the bosses??
"Mr. Stark, as a citizen, you should know that you must fight for this place!!"
However, the people on the screen completely ignored Thor's words and continued to pressure Stark. They wanted him to research artificial intelligence with their scientists so they could control the technology over there later on—how amazing would that be?
However, Stark just smiled. Like Thor, he popped open a bottle of champagne and took a sip. "Heh... Jarvis, tell them how many years of research it would take to break the artificial intelligence on the other side."
"Mr. Stark, I advise you not to do so. Because the opposing artificial intelligence... theoretically is not artificial intelligence, but a god in the database! He can control everything. If he wishes, he can make the West completely regress by several decades, returning to a pre-internet era, or even... a pre-nuclear era!!"
"Did you hear that?! Fuck!! You damn bastards, if you want to seek death, don't drag everyone else down with you!!"
Chapter 60: Stark Immigrates, Sending Shockwaves Across the world
Stark downed the champagne in his glass, smashed it to the ground, and roared.
Jarvis was already an incredibly advanced artificial intelligence. He had already developed his own emotions, often teasing Stark when they were researching or spending time together.
But... an AI of this caliber actually said that the opposing AI was a god in the database!
This...
How could this not leave people utterly shocked...
"Even if it's a god..."
"Jarvis."
Just as the other person was about to say more, Starkspoke up, and Jarvis immediately shut down the virtual projection...
And the tower fell into a dead silence...
"The Avengers... Heh, I think going to the other side is better than staying here. At least they didn't just do whatever they pleased. Even when the Chitauri invaded, they sent people to help."
After an unknown amount of time, Thor finished a bottle of beer and left.
And Stark's next words completely silenced the entire tower.
"Fury, I want to immigrate."
Stark stood up. "Here, I feel oppressed. I'd love to work for those idiots like my father did, but... for their so-called number one spot in the world, they want to gamble with everyone on Earth!"
"Jarvis once fought... oh no, met with Mr. Chen Tian's AI. Mr. Chen Tian's AI could make Jarvis completely disappear with just a casual word. Trying to defeat them with AI? Completely impossible!"
"Aside from AI, what else... Military? They have orbital cannons. Development? They have the Genetic Serum. I think the Genetic Serum will become widespread soon, and maybe I can snag one for myself too?"
"And... this life of mine... oh no, these three lives of mine were given to me by Mr. Chen Tian. Back then, if he hadn't granted me the ability of immortality, I don't know if my body would have held out until I researched the new element and removed the shrapnel."
"Therefore, I want to immigrate and join Mr. Chen Tian's side. At least with him there, he won't oppress or restrict me, and I can do whatever I want."
After saying that, Stark also left. The remaining few people present also left silently, leaving Fury all by himself.
"Fuck! Fuck!! Fuck!!!"
After an unknown amount of time, Fury roared in anger, and then he also left.
Whatever, you damn idiot politicians. You will pay the price for your ignorance and brainlessness, just like the one who died in front of everyone before!!
...
Back home.
The Patriarch was stunned to hear that Tony Stark wanted to immigrate. They had previously found out that the house Chen Tian stayed in while in New York belonged to Stark, so...
"We can agree, but the immigration conditions remain unchanged. Also... Old Gu, keep a close eye on our borders. Stark coming to our country will definitely attract a lot of rats. Kill them if necessary; they're illegal immigrants anyway. Also... keep a close eye on the official channels too. Don't let a single one slip through, especially the black ones."
"Don't worry, Patriarch. Leave this to me. The young wolves under my command have been eager for a while now."
Gu Qingshan laughed heartily and then left.
A day later, as expected...
The news of the youngest, most badass, and wealthiest billionaire Tony Stark's immigration spread across the entire world, causing a massive uproar.
And because of this news, many people, like wolves smelling meat, began to investigate this frantically. After all... Stark was not just a billionaire; the whole world knew he was Iron Man.
After all, hadn't a lot of people come to New York because of this before?
And now that Stark was immigrating, how could people not be shocked??
On our country's internet:
"Holy crap! Brothers, did my village just get internet access, or what?? Why is Stark coming to our country??"
"What else could it be? You all know about the alien invasion in New York a while ago, right? It was because our people went to help that they won against the aliens. Otherwise... heh..."
"Yeah, Iron Man is coming to our country. Hey! Look, Iron Man is an Earthling, and I'm also an Earthling. Iron Manhas our green card, and I've had it since birth, so I = Iron Man. No objections, right, everyone?"
"If you put it that way, I can say I'm even more badass than Iron Man. After all, he just got his card, while I've had mine since birth!!"
"Exactly! Iron Man is a genius, you know. With him coming to our country, who the fuck would dare to rise if we don't??"
"Tsk, genius? Genius my ass! Compared to our Boss Chen Tian, he's just trash!!"
"Uh... speaking of which, who is Chen Tian??"
"Heh, it's normal that you don't know. I'm from the Academy of Sciences. Boss Chen Tian is the one who destroyed the giant monster that day, and he's also the researcher behind our Genetic Serum, the founder of the space fighter jet fleet, and the creator of the Baiqi Series - Interstellar Orbital Cannon. Iron Man? A genius?? Compared to Boss Chen Tian, he's absolutely nothing!!"
"Holy shit!!! Now that you mention it, that's so true. That's incredibly badass. Iron Man really is nothing compared to Boss Chen Tian."
...
While the internet was buzzing with excitement, those idiot politicians in the West were jumping in anxiety!
They sent people to stop him, but... with the protection of the people sent by Gu Qingshan, how could they possibly stop him??
Stark coming to our country undoubtedly boosted our nation's prestige, didn't it? Before, New York was as arrogant as could be. But now? Do they dare to utter a single word of nonsense??
Soon, Stark arrived in Beijing.
"Mr. Gu, where is Mr. Chen Tian?"
Stark asked with a smile.
"Mr. Chen Tian is resting. After all, he worked non-stop for months to develop that defense system, so he's very tired." Gu Qingshan also knew that Stark must be aware of the Planetary Defense System, so he didn't try to hide it.
Besides, why hide it??
What could you possibly do??
Nothing!!
Because there are countless Genetic Warriors protecting him, and that thing is right near Mr. Chen Tian, guarded by countless of Mr. Chen Tian's servants. As for the internet, Tiandao is watching over it. What can you do??
By sea, land, or air???
If you can even enter our territory, I'll consider you capable.
"Alright, then please let me know once Mr. Chen Tian has rested. I have a lot of things I want to say to him."
"That will depend on Mr. Chen Tian's wishes."
...
"Zzzt... Zzzt..."
the Japanese archipelago.
After He San killed a zombie with his Lightning Ability, he used his Fire Ability to melt it down.
"My ability level is too low. I need to kill more insects to level it up so it's more useful." He San frowned. "Masterneeds a massive amount of energy. The few waves I killed earlier were far from enough. But there are plenty of Japanese people around. I'll plow through this land first."
After He San killed a few waves of insects, the ability Chen Tian bestowed upon him rose to Level 3. But compared to a Third-generation Zombie, this Level 3 was still not quite enough...
After all, the bodies of the Pangu Clan zombies were virtually indestructible, unaffected by fire and such. However, it wasn't that they couldn't be burned to death; it was just that his level was not high enough.
Therefore, He San planned to plow through the the Japanese archipelago, killing all the insects to raise his level to Level 5. After that, he would capture a batch of people to feed on, turn them into zombies, and kill them again.
