Chapter 132: Rampant Burning, A Punch That Blasts the Multiverse
"He is a God? I didn't expect Mr. Miracle of Aaron's Groupto be the Celestials you speak of!"
"This is truly incredible!"
Kingo's manager, Karun, shook his head and swayed, his posture extremely exaggerated.
Ikaris frowned and looked over, "Kingo, who is he? What right does he have to be here!"
Although Kingo highly praised himself, Ikaris still didn't give him a good look.
Karun saw Ikaris's fierce gaze and immediately shut his mouth.
"He's my manager. When Ajak contacted me, he was with me."
"Because time was short, I brought him along."
Under pressure from Ikaris's strength, Kingo quickly explained.
But Ikaris still didn't have a good expression.
"Great Lord Celestial, please forgive my reckless behavior."
Seeing this, Kingo could only look toward Aaron, the one in charge.
Karun also looked timidly toward Mr. Miracle.
He knew that a single word from the other party could determine his life or Death.
Aaron waved his hand dismissively.
He wasn't the Celestials they understood, like Ajak; he just wanted to reap some benefits.
Seeing Aaron act this way,
Kingo breathed a sigh of relief.
Ikaris also lost his reason to react aggressively.
"Great Lord Celestial, all members of the Ajak Squadgreet you!"
Ajak said with a forced smile, but anyone could tell she was preoccupied.
The newly arrived Eternal members realized that the conversation between the two parties had not been pleasant during their absence.
Meanwhile, Ikaris and the others who had been present were even more confused and bewildered; they truly didn't understand!
Aaron nodded, still maintaining a serious expression.
After scanning everyone, he used the same method to acquire all the abilities of the remaining Eternal members.
Only the mute woman Makkari sensed something in the area.
Her ability was Super Speed, and her neural reaction speed was very fast.
But she only vaguely sensed an abnormality and couldn't consciously perceive Aaron's movements.
No matter how fast her perception was, it wasn't as fast as Aaron's.
Aaron's reaction speed in his normal state could operate at superluminal speed, approaching Sub-light Speed.
Once he transformed into the Super-Dimensional God Body state, meaning a non-material existence, his reaction speed could reach Planck Time.
This was Quantum Reaction Speed!
His dynamic vision could capture objects moving at the speed of light.
And he could calculate the lead time, predicting attacks as if he were clairvoyant.
Makkari's reaction speed was like child's play in his eyes, posing no threat whatsoever.
Makkari only felt that the previous instant was an illusion.
She quickly dismissed it.
Several streaks of flowing light surged.
The primal furnace extracted everyone's abilities in an instant.
[Energy Shapeshifting: Similar ability detected and Fusion complete (Sword of the Night Sky). You can freely convert energy into various energy weapons, possessing their corresponding characteristics.]
[Rampage Burning: Similar ability detected and Fusioncomplete (Hand of Glory). You can mobilize vast energy to temporarily strengthen your physical power, thereby unleashing millions of times the destructive force!]
[Energy Control: Similar ability detected and Fusioncomplete. You can manipulate any type of Cosmic Energyin the Reality Universe, utilizing or absorbing it.]
Oh wow, the abilities after Fusion are quite good!
Aaron was slightly surprised.
These abilities were much stronger than their originals.
Especially Rampage Burning.
Aaron's current strength value primarily comes from his evolved basic physical stats, plus the tenfold increase in basic Physique brought by Limit Breakthrough, and the twentyfold increase in arm and leg strength.
If he were to use Rampage Burning again, integrating the energy of hundreds of millions of Universes...
Aaron dared not imagine how terrifying he would be at that point.
Shatter the Multiverse with a single punch?
After thinking carefully,
Aaron felt that perhaps the Multiverse would be destroyed, but his own body would also collapse.
Death?
Probably not.
He possessed Transcendent Memory coupled with the Power of Transmigration.
He could exempt his consciousness from that destructive force just as his body collapsed and his Soul was destroyed.
Then, he could find an opportunity for Rebirth.
But—
Aaron was not a masochist.
Burning out his life for a single strike, just to perish alongside his opponent?
He decided against it.
However, this also meant that if he unleashed his full power now, he could contend with Multiverse-level Gods.
Of course,
at his level,
trying to kill each other was inherently an almost impossible task.
Experts at this level fundamentally possessed their own trump cards.
Only by finding the opponent's weakness and launching a fatal blow could they be completely eradicated.
Or, by forcibly erasing them at a higher conceptual level.
That would require an existence on the level of the true forms of the Four Abstract Entities.
Yet, how vast was the power Aaron commanded?
Trying to target his weakness and eliminate him,
that possibility was too slim.
At the very least, those Dimensional Demon Gods could just go wash up and sleep.
"Lord Celestial..."
At this moment, Gilgamesh cautiously stepped forward, pleadingly saying, "Could you take a look at Tina?"
"According to Ajak, she suffers from Eternal Demon Syndrome, and we have searched for many methods, but none can cure her symptoms."
"God, can you help her?"
Tina looked nervously toward Aaron.
After receiving the God's message, they had considered this possibility.
Although the chances of success were slim, Tina still decided to try.
As a powerful warrior of the Eternal, second only to Ikaris, she could definitely be counted as a Valkyrie.
Possessing powerful Martial Arts Skills and superb combat awareness, in terms of strength, she was not even weaker than Athena in mythology.
Even Ikaris could fight her to a standstill.
She was unwilling to be troubled by Eternal Demon Syndrome for the rest of her life.
And become useless.
Ajak opened her mouth, wanting to speak but holding back.
Then, Ajak gritted her teeth and said, "Enough. Lord Celestial is busy with missions. Tina's matter can be considered after we return to Olympia."
Hearing this, Gilgamesh couldn't say anything.
Gods were very busy; they were busy creating Worlds!
But Tina was somewhat unwilling.
She stubbornly looked at Aaron.
Aaron glanced over Ajak and Tina, raising an eyebrow.
Of course, he knew why Ajak was so flustered. Tina's Eternal Demon Syndrome was actually a mental disorder caused by the accumulation of too many memories.
Ajak had explained to everyone that it was a disease caused by Tina living for too long.
However, the reality was that it was Tina's memories from her previous life acting up.
Those memories were not from this current life, and they clashed with her present memories.
This made her unable to distinguish Reality.
Consequently, she experienced confusion of will and an inability to distinguish friend from foe.
Clearly, Arishem the Judge might have been distracted when clearing Tina's memories, causing a slight error in the experiment.
The Celestials were not omnipotent.
They also made mistakes.
For instance, the creation of the Eternal was intended to deal with the Celestials' other creation, the Deviants.
After the latter developed self-awareness, they began slaughtering the God's creations.
Aaron maliciously speculated that this might also have been intentional on Arishem the Judge's part.
Perhaps this Supreme Celestial wanted to see if the Eternal, who possessed fragments of their previous life's memories, had the potential for betrayal.
And then further refine this race.
Even Ajak's situation might have been within his expectations.
In any case, no one knew what Arishem the Judge was truly thinking.
Perhaps, it really was just a mistake?
Ajak was so flustered precisely because she was worried that the true nature of the so-called Eternal Demon Syndrome would be discovered.
If it were any other Celestial, they might cooperate with Ajak after examining Tina's condition.
But Aaron didn't care about all that.
He waved his hand, signaling Tina to come over.
Aaron placed his hand on Tina's forehead.
The latter's face flushed slightly, feeling that this Godwas too "human-like."
Even that large hand seemed to possess infinite magical power.
It caused a slight ripple in the calm heart of Tina, the female warrior.
Moreover, her mind was calmer when she was beside Aaron, and the strange memories that caused her constant headaches also settled down for once.
"Your condition is a bit complex, and it will take some time to handle."
As soon as Aaron spoke, Tina's eyebrows lifted in delight.
Ajak, standing nearby, then suggested, "Since Lord Celestial can cure Tina's problem, why not let Tina stay by your side during Lord Celestial's time on Earth?"
"With Lord Celestial present, even if Tina has an episode, it can be suppressed immediately, and her Eternal Demon Syndrome can be treated."
The three characters for Eternal Demon Syndrome were spoken with slightly heavy emphasis.
"Tina, what do you think?"
Aaron originally just wanted to watch the show, but since Ajak made this suggestion, he was even more indifferent.
Tina only hesitated for a moment before smiling and nodding.
"Then, Lord Celestial, I will trouble you during this time."
The hesitation was not because Tina had other thoughts, but because she was considering whether she would disturb Aaron.
Gilgamesh, standing nearby, opened his mouth, but ultimately remained silent.
Why did he have the illusion of personally sending Tinato another man?
Wait, he and Tina had no relationship, and if the other party was Lord Celestial...
Thinking about it, he felt much more comfortable.
Lord Celestial, nothing will happen, right?
He subconsciously ignored the information he had searched about Aaron before coming.
Afraid to face that truth.
Looking at the smiling Tina, Gilgamesh silently sent his blessings.
After all, he had thought about it for so many years and still hadn't found a solution, he was simply useless!
Seeing that Tina's matter was perfectly resolved,
Ajak breathed a sigh of relief.
This hurdle was barely passed.
But what about next... thinking about the future fate of the Eternal, Ajak couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Considering that Tina would be by Aaron's side, perhaps she could do something to change their future?
Ajak could only think this way.
After extracting the Eternal's abilities,
and gaining a bonus gift,
Aaron sent Ajak and the others away.
Talking too much would easily expose him.
He truly didn't know more information about the Celestials.
Later,
when he melted Tiamut,
these Eternal might even fight him to the death.
Their peach, which they had painstakingly guarded for thousands of years, was picked; how could they tolerate that?
Ikaris would definitely come to fight him anyway.
As for Tina... Aaron was confident he could completely cure (subdue) her.
Eternal Syndrome?
Is that even a problem?
After bidding farewell to the heavy-hearted Eternalmembers,
Aaron brought Tina home.
"My Lord Celestial, what do I need to do next?"
Tina asked nervously.
Aaron thought for a moment, "What can you do?"
Tina pondered, then said awkwardly, "Sorry, I can only fight, my close combat skills are very good!"
Aaron said meaningfully, "Is that so? Then I'll look forward to it."
Meanwhile, on the other side,
Ikaris and Sersi, along with one other, surrounded Ajak, wanting to find out any information Ajak might be hiding.
But at this moment,
Druig, who had been observing the situation indifferently, slowly spoke.
"Don't you think it's strange?"
"Hmm?"
"A God... also looks for women?"
Gilgamesh subconsciously retorted, "Druig, what are you trying to say? How can we understand what a God wants to do?"
Druig looked at him with sympathetic eyes,
"Perhaps I'm overthinking, but I'm very curious why a Godwould take human form and come to Earth."
"With the values of Gods and humans, they wouldn't do such a thing, would they? That's the great Celestials!"
"Ajak, can you provide us with an answer?"
Ajak could naturally deduce the answer.
The Aaron's Group founded by Aaron, and the newbornpackage it launched, was the perfect answer.
But she couldn't say it.
She still needed to think about how to come clean with her companions.
"Druig, are you questioning the identity of the God?"
Ajak's expression turned slightly cold.
Druig shook his head, "Of course not, but I am questioning you!"
"Enough, Druig! Remember, I am the leader recognized by the Supreme Celestial!"
Ajak didn't want to answer and directly played her trump card.
Druig's expression changed, "Alright, alright, you still want to hide it from us? Ajak, you will regret this!"
Ajak was silent.
She glanced at Aaron's Villa.
"Let's go, we'll be in New York for a while, Lord Celestialmight need us."
The other Eternal members looked at each other.
Although they were all very confused internally, no matter what, Ajak was their leader!
Even if they didn't respect the monk, they had to respect the Buddha.
The Supreme Celestial was right above their heads!
Chapter 133 Killian's Fear, Who Is the Mouse?
"Daily Bugle: Shocking! Councilman Rudolp's head is still missing, the The Decapitator is suspected to have appeared around A.I.M., New York Police Director George Stacy stated that the culprit will be brought to justice as soon as possible! (Personally, I think they are wasting taxpayers' money!)"
"Horrifying! Fisk Group was tragically looted by the The Decapitator and another mysterious force, resulting in over thirty casualties. Is this the distortion of human nature, or the decay of morality? Please allow Hammer Industries CEO Justin Hammer to introduce the latest security product—the Micro Ex-Wife Missile System!"
"Famous entrepreneur Mr. Wilson Grant Fisk offered a reward of 100 million U.S. dollars for the The Decapitator's head!"
"International Daily: A major terrorist attack has occurred in the Sokovia region, several mercenary organizations have been tragically attacked by an unknown force. The United Nations has unanimously decided to dispatch peacekeeping forces to Sokovia to work for World peace!"
"Latest News! The The Decapitator broke into the A.I.M.building last night, but has now been jointly expelled by A.I.M. security and the police. Mr. Stacy stated that a dragnet has been laid, and the The Decapitator will receive due punishment!"
After sending the Eternal away, Aaron began to browse the important news that had happened recently.
When he saw these familiar names,
he instantly understood that the Symbiote Squad and Magneto Erik were strictly following his list.
Councilman Rudolp had already reported to Hell.
Kingpin Group suffered heavy losses, and reliable sources indicated that he lost at least hundreds of millions of U.S. dollars in arms and White powder, as well as corresponding payments.
The mercenary organizations in Sokovia had also given up.
Only A.I.M., suspected to be a Ten Rings '667' Baseorganization, and HYDRA remained.
He glanced at the time.
Aaron frowned slightly.
"The Symbiote Squad's operation tonight failed?"
Thinking about it carefully,
it seemed quite reasonable.
Although Venom and the others were powerful and not afraid of ordinary firearms,
they were afraid of Fire and sound waves.
as well as large-caliber firepower, such as Rocketlaunchers.
If someone with a keen eye discovered their weakness and prepared accordingly,
these eleven Symbiotes simply couldn't stir up any trouble.
A.I.M. was different from other organizations.
Its founder, Killian, developed the Extremis virus.
This virus was a super serum developed based on the Super Soldier Serum, combined with plant cell regeneration mechanisms, possessing super healing, physical enhancement, and high-temperature manipulation.
After injecting this serum, one not only possesses Captain America-level physique but can also generate thousands of degrees Celsius of high temperature, enough to melt most metals.
They can even conduct heat through contact or breathe Fire.
Strictly speaking,
Extremis Soldiers injected with the Extremis virus are the bane of Symbiotes.
They also possess super self-healing abilities,
but Extremis Soldiers can breathe Fire.
If a Symbiote dares to get close, it will suffer continuous damage from thousands of degrees of high temperature.
Task failure was not unacceptable.
Thinking of this,
Aaron's brows relaxed.
At this moment,
Killian's smug smiling face popped up on the TV, along with George Stacy's forced, awkward, and embarrassed smile.
"My A.I.M. is not a small-time enterprise, but a multinational group with the strongest biomedical technology and military strength in the entire U.S.!"
"A.I.M.'s security is also World-class, every single one is an elite among retired soldiers, a one-in-a-thousand elite, no one can break through A.I.M.'s security System!"
"A mere The Decapitator squad is not worth mentioning!"
"Arrogant? I'm not arrogant, I'm confident!"
"I'll say it here, I, Killian, will be waiting in the A.I.M.building. Those pathetic rats who only dare to hide in the Shadow, if you have the guts, come and take my head!"
Oh, this old man, he's asking for death!
Originally, Aaron had thought of letting A.I.M. live a little longer.
But now it seems,
if he didn't take Killian's head tonight, how could he continue to operate?
"Alright, alright, then I'll grant your wish!"
Aaron immediately called Eric.
They're just a bunch of Extremis Soldiers, look how Killian is boasting.
Does he really think that by repelling a few Symbiotes, he's the king?
He immediately started blasting Aaron's Group and Stark Industries, and even included Fisk Group and HammerGroup.
Who doesn't know that the leader in biomedical technology is Aaron's Group?
Who doesn't know that the Big Boss of the Arms Industry was the former Stark Industries and is now Hammer Industries?
The Fisk Group has been reduced to a small, insignificant company playing house.
Aaron didn't care that Killian was blasting Stark and other companies, but he couldn't tolerate someone secretly slandering him.
"Boss! What are your orders?"
Eric's powerful voice came from the other end.
Aaron vaguely heard the sound of CrossFire coming from that side.
"What are you doing?"
A scream came from that side, "I'm still in Sokovia! The local Gangs are incredibly rude; they actually dared to bomb my private jet!"
"Oh, and Boss, those mercenaries targeting the Group and all related organizations associated with them have been completely rooted out!"
"Absolutely no one was mistakenly killed, and not a single one was allowed to escape!"
Aaron raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and said, "Charles?"
"I'm here!"
It was still Eric's voice, but it was much softer.
"Mr. Miracle, I was worried about Eric killing innocent people indiscriminately, so I've been helping him choose targets during this time."
Good grief, you two really are best buddies.
Even when doing a mission, you have to go together.
And you even share a body!
Charles, how little faith do you have in Eric?
Aaron felt he had misunderstood.
Charles is a Bleeding Heart? I think he's quite ruthless when he takes action.
When it comes to killing, he's even more efficient!
Aaron was silent for a moment. "You did very well. Keep it up."
"Understood, Boss!"
Eric's voice switched back again.
Aaron gave up the idea of asking Eric to take action, and instead thought of the Cybertronians.
Originally, the Cybertronians were also hired muscle.
Let them make a move this time!
"Let these fools witness the technology of the future!"
Aaron stood up and walked onto the balcony.
His thoughts surged.
A rift suddenly tore open in the New York sky.
Following a deafening Dragon roar,
Immediately after,
A steel giant Dragon, with a wingspan of over two hundred meters and a length exceeding forty meters, emerged from the rift!
It was none other than the Storm Dragon, formed by the Twelve Guardian Knights!
And atop the Storm Dragon's head,
There were also three women, as well as Bumblebee, who stood ten meters tall.
They were Mikaela, Kelli, and Tessa from Transformers 4!
After Tessa, along with her father Cade, was saved by Aaron during the restoration of Earth,
the rebellious Tessa found a chance to follow a Tractor Autobot and sneaked onto the spaceship.
She came along to Cybertron and was teleported to the Marvel Universe.
Aaron had sensed Tessa's aura back when he opened the Teleportation Gate.
At the time, he didn't pay attention to this bonus item (mentioned briefly in Chapter 132).
But now it seems Tessa and Kelli have a decent relationship?
"Great Dominator of Cybertron, Storm Dragon(Bumblebee) greets you!"
The Storm Dragon flew over New York,
Using the cover of night, not many people noticed its presence.
"Storm Dragon, Bumblebee, go destroy A.I.M. for me, and then blow up the head of an idiot named Killian!"
"Oh, and don't harm this person."
Aaron input George Stacy's picture into their data.
It was impossible for him to personally act just because Killian provoked him.
Killian wasn't worthy!
In Aaron's eyes, Killian was only fit to sit at the children's table.
"As you wish, Great Dominator!"
The Storm Dragon slightly lowered its enormous head.
Aaron waved his hand, sending Kelli and the others down.
Then the Storm Dragon spread its wings and, taking Bumblebee with it, vanished into the night.
Meanwhile, under the dark night sky of Manhattan,
A few pedestrians, walking lightly, felt a gust of strong wind,
along with a Dragon roar.
They looked up, watching the fleeting giant black shadow.
Then they shook their heads.
"Did you see that? What was that thing?"
"I guess it must have been some kind of large bird?"
"A large bird? Was it as big as me? Haha!"
At this moment,
A.I.M. Group.
Because of The Decapitator's attack,
A large number of reporters, media outlets, and Policehad gathered there.
Since Killian strongly demanded that no one be allowed entry, citing company secrets,
the reporters and Police could only wait outside the building,
hoping for a chance to get firsthand information.
"Officer Stacy, I've told you, we don't need the Police's help here. Our company's security forces are sufficient to handle any crisis!"
"Instead of wasting taxpayer money standing around here doing nothing, you might as well go guard the Fisk Group; perhaps you'll find an unexpected harvest there?"
At the entrance of the building, Killian completely ignored George Stacy's grim expression and dismissed him.
"Mr. Killian, the remarks you just made could potentially put your company in danger. We are the professionals when dealing with these Dark Forces!"
Stacy suppressed the urge to draw his gun and shoot the bastard, speaking earnestly.
"Hahaha, did you hear what they said? They're the professionals?"
Killian smiled at a bald assistant who looked intimidating.
"Fine, if you want to stand guard, go ahead. I'm going to sleep now."
"They are just a bunch of rats in the shadows; there's no need for such a fuss."
As Killian passed the bald assistant, he instructed, "Don't use your ability in public, and keep a close eye on these damned Police. Our secrets cannot be exposed!"
The bald man nodded, his cold gaze fixed on George.
A cruel smile played on his lips.
Having finished speaking, Killian turned and left.
In his mind, he was still thinking about The Decapitatorand Aaron's Group.
Killian could vaguely guess the purpose of The Decapitator's attack.
Previously, in order to obtain the biotech secrets of the Osborn Group, he had a group of people infiltrate it under the name of the Ten Rings Gang.
However, those fools failed.
As Aaron's Group grew stronger, Killian temporarily gave up the idea of offending them.
But unexpectedly,
trouble still arrived.
Killian's expression was cold. "Aaron... I hope you realize the gap between us, otherwise..."
"Hmph!"
Killian was not fond of Aaron; in fact, he was extremely hostile toward him.
Although he created Extremis, he had the potential to become a top-tier Group.
However, this serum, or rather, virus, was highly unstable.
If the virus rejected the host body or became uncontrollable—for instance, by inhaling an excessive amount of the virus—it could lead to energy overload and trigger a violent explosion.
The host would also be instantly vaporized.
Moreover, the failure rate was extremely high, and successful subjects were few and far between.
To further develop Extremis,
Killian recruited amputees and other disabled individuals under the name of A.I.M. for human experimentation, including a large number of retired soldiers.
After many years of research, Killian has only managed to create dozens of Extremis Soldiers up until now; all other test subjects died from failed injections.
Without a doubt,
given the high failure rate of Extremis, it lacked the potential for mass production, and the Department of Defense, or rather, the taxpayers, would never accept this thing.
They wanted powerful warriors with the ability for limb regeneration.
But they wanted to keep their lives even more.
Yet Killian's product was truly life-threatening!
Now look at Aaron's Group: how perfect their Limb Regeneration Serum is, with zero side effects. Isn't that much better than your virus?
This also led to,
A.I.M.'s valuation constantly falling due to the rise of Aaron's Group.
Killian himself was originally considered a major player, but now he had completely been reduced to a mere supporting character.
What was even more infuriating was that
Aaron was even more of a big shot than Tony Stark.
Killian wanted to establish biological cooperation with him, but ended up not even getting to meet Aaron.
On the Eve of the Millennium, Tony Stark stood him up.
At that time, Tony Stark was already the richest man, while he was just a minor character with a limp.
Now he had founded A.I.M., become a biomedical dark horse, and possessed tens of billions in assets.
Yet he was being snubbed by Aaron again.
After all that effort, hadn't Killian developed his company for nothing?
He hated!
He swore he would make these bastards pay!
Therefore, he subtly mocked certain people in front of the media.
He was very much looking forward to it.
What wonderful expressions Aaron and Tony Starkwould have when they saw it.
It must be wonderful!
Just as Killian's mouth curled into a smile,
A thunderous Dragon's roar suddenly came from outside the building!
All the floor-to-ceiling windows of the entire building shattered instantly. (Part 4)
Killian turned his head and found himself staring directly into the eyes of a giant Steel Dragon!
"I see you, little mouse!" The giant Dragon split its mouth.
Killian's pupils widened, "What The F*ck is this thing!!!"
Chapter 134 Tony: I'm going to rebel against him!
Looking at the Steel Dragon, whose eyes were bigger than his own,
Killian's legs went soft.
He lost seventy percent of his courage instantly.
Without any hesitation,
When the giant Dragon spoke and locked onto him,
Killian gritted his teeth and mustered his last strength to run in another direction.
At the same time, he contacted and gathered the Extremis Soldiers deployed in various locations.
By this point, he no longer cared about being exposed.
He wanted to live!
Almost simultaneously,
The reporters and Police surrounding the A.I.M. building
only heard a piercing whoosh,
Everyone felt their ears go deaf.
After a dizzy spell,
They then heard a thunderous roar from above,
As the ground shook,
They looked up and finally saw the Storm Dragongripping the middle section of the A.I.M. building.
After the initial shock and confusion, came terror.
"A three-headed giant Dragon? My goodness, that's a legendary Dragon!"
"He's bigger than the building, my goodness, what is he going to do? Is he going to destroy the building?"
"A.I.M. must have committed a monstrous crime; God sent a divine Dragon to punish them!"
"Run! The building is going to collapse!!"
"Don't panic yet, let me take a picture and post it on Facebook first, I'm going to get rich!"
"I think you're going to fly!"
Reporters and cameramen ran frantically while recording, their heavy cameras not affecting their speed at all, but rather bursting forth with a speed that would make even Bolt blush.
And the Police, looking at the giant figure and then at the 10-palm-sized pistols in their hands, exchanged glances and tacitly retreated.
At this moment, they were actually grateful that Killianhad kept them outside and prevented them from entering the building to set up defenses.
Otherwise...
They would probably have died in the line of duty today.
"All units, attention! Protect citizens for orderly evacuation!"
George Stacy's head was buzzing, but he had, after all, experienced minor disturbances. After regaining his composure, he immediately organized an evacuation plan.
He wasn't like those on TV who, upon seeing a crime, selflessly led their subordinates to charge.
People become Police not only to uphold justice but also to make a living.
To knowingly do something futile is foolish.
This giant Dragon, appearing from unknown origins, was beyond what their Police department could handle.
Before the army arrived, the only thing he could do was to ensure the safety of the living taxpayers as much as possible.
As for the real big taxpayer, Killian, and A.I.M.... Georgelooked at the A.I.M. building.
He hesitated for a moment, recalling the gentle faces of Gwen and his wife in his mind.
He then looked at his subordinates, who were frantically directing the evacuation at the outermost edge of the crowd, "busily working together."
The fearful expressions on their faces... and their eighty-year-old mothers at home, three-year-old children... Then he remembered Killian's arrogant face.
"Mr. Killian said their security forces are sufficient to cope with any crisis..."
George Stacy gritted his teeth,
"Everyone retreat outside and await fire support!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at these words.
However, George Stacy did not move far away.
He was merely retreating, not fleeing; as the Director of the New York Police Department, he had to command from the front lines.
Stacy watched helplessly as the giant Dragon wreaked havoc. His sense of justice made him feel that he needed to do something.
"Sniper team, try firing at the giant Dragon!"
He gave the order,
The snipers, hidden in the shadows, gritted their teeth and each fired a shot at the giant Dragon's wings.
However, the armor-piercing rounds, capable of tearing through steel, bounced off the giant Dragon's body.
The sniper, not believing it, fired several shots at a general location.
However, with the aid of the dim lighting,
The target location was completely unharmed!
"Director, our bullets are ineffective. This giant Dragon... he's harder than steel!"
Listening to the sniper team's report, George Stacyclenched his fists.
It proved that
His immediate decision to abandon the A.I.M. building and organize an evacuation was the most correct one.
But he still found it hard to accept reality.
As Police officers, they could only watch helplessly as the criminal... the criminal Dragon committed its atrocities.
What exactly did Killian do?
Why would it attract such a monster?
The Storm Dragon felt someone "biting" it. Its three heads simultaneously turned to look and quickly locked onto several positions of the sniper team.
Bumblebee stomped its foot, "Stop looking, quickly deal with the target and let's go."
"I'm only giving you one minute. If you don't resolve it, I'll step in."
"The little mouse is mine!"
The Storm Dragon replied and refocused its attention on the building.
The Storm Dragon, standing forty to fifty meters tall, was roughly one-third the height of the A.I.M. building.
This forced it to use its wings to wrap around the building and stabilize its body.
Using the surveillance System inside the A.I.M. building,
It quickly locked onto Killian's location again.
The Storm Dragon's sharp claws easily pierced through the reinforced concrete of the A.I.M. building,
With a gentle swipe, it tore through the outer wall like tofu, finding Killian who had just returned to the laboratory.
Killian turned around, looking at the giant Dragon staring back at him again.
Is this dragon head a little different?
Wait, the giant Dragon has three heads!
There's also another robot on its head!
Killian took a deep breath.
Isn't this a bit too much, big brother?
First came The Decapitator, and then a giant Dragon that covered the sky and sun!
"Big Brother Dragon, is there some misunderstanding between us?"
Killian was arrogant, but he wasn't stupid.
The Decapitator was still within the realm of comprehension.
This giant Dragon... could probably crush him with one slap, right?
Just looking at its size, it must weigh at least tens of thousands of tons!
"Little mouse, the creator sent me to send you on your way."
The giant Dragon raised its head, and a ball of violent energy gathered.
Killian's face instantly turned pale.
"Kill him! Burn him to shreds!"
Killian urged the Extremis Soldiers to charge forward with a ferocious expression.
Seeing this,
The Extremis Soldiers had no choice but to charge forward bravely.
Their bodies glowed with an eerie red light,
Attempting to use super high temperatures to melt the giant Dragon.
This was the only method they could think of.
Their proudly boasted super strength, in the face of such a steel behemoth, was as ridiculous as ants.
Thousands of degrees of high temperature was their only hope.
But Bumblebee's right arm popped out a thick cannon barrel, and blue light gathered.
The Extremis Soldiers were stunned.
No, we're fighting hand-to-hand, and you're using a cannon?
Shouldn't you, like a warrior, engage us in a contest of iron and flesh?
"Hey guys, enjoy my newly upgraded Fusion Cannon!"
"This is Bumblebee's eternal resolve and courage!"
Whoosh~"
Bumblebee pouted, and the Fusion Cannon instantly tore through space, blasting an Extremis Soldier into dust on the spot!
The Fusion Cannon was originally Megatron's signature attack method, taking out one transformer with every shot, no looking back.
No matter how strong an Extremis Soldier was, could they be tougher than steel?
One shot, one little kid.
They had no power to fight back!
You seriously have no martial ethics!!
The Extremis Soldiers were utterly miserable.
They originally thought that injecting Extremis had made them immortal Superhumans.
Yet, in front of true non-humans, they were still just dust!
"That guy, if you have the guts, fight me one-on-one!"
Someone, unable to bear it any longer, tried to provoke him.
Bumblebee moved the muzzle over and blasted him away with a whoosh.
"My Lord, the times have changed!"
Bumblebee kept a straight face and spoke the famous line.
In his other hand, he held a greatsword taller than a person.
But he simply refused to use it.
Hey, he was just messing around!
One, two, three, four... just then,
the Storm Dragon gathered its energy,
and under Killian's terrified gaze, it spat a mouthful of thick phlegm at the A.I.M. Building.
"No!!!!"
The Storm Dragon's energy cannon pierced the A.I.M. Building right through the middle, streaking across the sky and tearing through the clouds in the blink of an eye.
"Target neutralized, mission complete!"
Bumblebee patted the Storm Dragon's head. "Let's go!"
"Damn it, don't touch my head!"
"Huh? What was that? The wind is too strong, I can't hear you!!"
After destroying the A.I.M. Building,
the Storm Dragon spread its wings again, instantly breaking the sound barrier and soaring toward the heavens.
At this time,
everyone finally understood.
No wonder they hadn't detected the Storm Dragon's arrival; it turned out its speed was comparable to a fighter jet!
No, it was faster than a fighter jet!
However, this time,
the Police were finally not late.
They were the first to arrive, sealing off the surrounding area and assessing the damages.
At the same time,
after watching the Storm Dragon destroy the A.I.M. Building on TV,
Aaron nodded in satisfaction.
When he said 'neutralized the target,' he meant it, no ambiguity!
He checked the time again.
It wasn't past twelve o'clock, which was perfect!
Aaron turned to look at Kelli, Mikaela, and Tessa (who was essentially a gift), all of whom had eyes filled with awe and shock.
"Ladies, the little mouse is dead. Perhaps we can celebrate?"
The youngest, Tessa, pulled out two bottles of champagne from behind her back.
"Ta-da! I'm ready!"
Mikaela looked up. "You haven't reached the legal drinking age yet, have you?"
"Don't say such a buzzkill thing right now."
Tessa was at a rebellious age, and with Cade not around, she completely let loose.
She wanted to drink, she wanted to make love!
She wanted to repay the creator with herself,
and bear many, many little monkeys for the creator!
"Besides, the creator saved our World and saved me. Can't I at least thank the creator?"
This reason was impeccable.
Mikaela had only mentioned it casually anyway.
In fact,
she had only just graduated high school... she was still three years away from the drinking age of 21.
However, just after opening a bottle,
Tessa only had one glass before immediately pulling on Aaron.
"I want to be on top!"
Aaron was also stunned.
He thought Tessa was a seasoned drinker, but she turned out to be a lightweight?
"A newbie should be on the bottom!"
Aaron flipped over and mounted her.
Meanwhile, on the other side,
at the New York Beachfront Villa.
Tony Stark stared blankly at the TV screen showing the Storm Dragon wreaking havoc on A.I.M. before casually flying away.
"Jarvis, I want to counter him!"
PS: I had a bad stomach ache all day today and my mental state is poor, so the update was slow. Sorry!!
Chapter 145: Transcending Time, First Meeting with Peggy Carter
Tony Stark, who had just returned from a yacht party, was already lying down and preparing to rest, exhausted from his body being depleted.
When Jarvis popped up the live broadcast showing A.I.M.being attacked and Killian's mocking remarks,
although Tony was slightly annoyed, he still decided to sleep first and deal with it later.
Stark Industries had already changed tracks and no longer played small games like the arms trade.
If Killian's words were aimed at anyone, they were aimed at Aaron's Group and Hammer Industries.
He had even forgotten the small incident on Millennium Eve when he had left Killian on the rooftop to freeze all night.
Who is Killian? Wait, he's a man? Never heard of him!
In any case, Tony was ready to sleep happily, recover his Origin Qi, and ignite the war again tomorrow.
When the Steel Dragon appeared,
Tony's expression turned serious, and his hand was already resting on the Mark VI Armor.
However, when Jarvis stated that the giant dragon was suspected to have come from the area of Aaron's Villa,
Tony slapped himself immediately and jumped up.
"Tony, Tony, at your age, how dare you sleep?"
It was as if new vitality had been injected into Tony's body; his back wasn't sore, his legs didn't hurt, and he was full of energy.
He felt like he could still fight the Blonde Succubus for three hundred... thirty rounds.
"Search all information about the Steel Dragon for me."
"This image right here, zoom in, zoom in, zoom in again!"
Tony paused the screen at the exact moment the Storm Dragon was gathering energy.
"Is there another huge guy on its head?"
"A yellow humanoid robot?"
"Don't tell me that during the few days Aaron was missing, he managed to create a massive Steel Dragonover a hundred meters long, and a robot nearly ten meters tall?"
Tony felt completely numb.
Aren't you supposed to be in Biomedical Science? Why did you also jump into Electronic Engineering, Physics, and Artificial Intelligence?
Are you trying to stop everyone else from playing?
Tony felt a sense of crisis.
Originally, Aaron's Group was just the leader in Biomedical Science.
He was still slightly superior in intelligence and engineering.
But he never expected Aaron to lack martial ethics and secretly work on inventions.
After just a few days apart, good heavens, you've actually taken to the sky!
Tony felt something was wrong.
"Jarvis, immediately pull up Aaron's Degree Information."
Jarvis complied.
When Tony saw the string of Dr. degrees after Aaron's name, he fell silent.
He counted them: eight!
One more than Bruce Banner!
Why hadn't he noticed this before?
Right, in his memory, Aaron was either chasing girls or chasing girls.
Everyone was chasing girls, but I was doing it for real, and you were just acting?!
Chasing girls in the open, studying in secret!
No way, you're only twenty-two!
To have eight degrees spanning different majors at such a young age.
You're seriously over-competing!
"F*ck, f*ck, f*ck!"
"Enroll me in Biomedical Science, Chemistry, Psychology, Quantum Physics... I'm going to out-compete the hell out of them!"
Tony was furious.
Everyone wants to over-compete, huh? Let's see who can out-compete whom!
Although Tony had never seriously studied those majors, he had dabbled in them, and in fields like Biomedical Science, he was definitely no worse than an ordinary Master's or Dr. in related disciplines.
As long as it involves the brain, Tony is not afraid!
Whoever is scared is a puppy!
Tony was very angry, and in a fit of rage... he just raged a little.
"Continue zooming in here..."
"What symbol is this?"
"It looks like a black hole?"
"There's another icon here..."
"A sword and a shield?"
"No, no! This isn't logical!"
"It looks like this giant Dragon was temporarily pieced together, yet this design shouldn't allow for such flexibility. The metal on its body... damn it, what exactly is this thing?"
Tony was truly speechless.
Aaron doesn't act often, but when he does, it brings such despair.
Just this giant Dragon alone is enough to keep him busy for months, even years!
"Sir, should we counteract him?"
Jarvis spoke.
Tony thought about it, gritting his teeth, "Counteract! I want to counter him to death!"
"Start designing immediately. The new suit will be called Mark Model Dragon Slayer!"
"Sir, I must remind you that we currently have more than twenty types of armor models waiting to be completed..."
Jarvis brought up the design files.
Supersonic Armor, Flight Pod Armor, Anti-Hulk Armor, Anti-Magneto Armor, Anti-Thor Armor, Anti-Hela Armor, Anti-Odin Armor, Anti-Aaron S1, Anti-Aaron S2, Anti-Aaron S3
The Anti-Aaron series alone has a total of eight sets.
However, every time a design just started, Tony would check on Aaron, and damn it, he'd gained new abilities, forcing him to scramble and redesign the entire plan.
Tony glanced over, his vision swam, and his brain felt like it was about to go on strike.
"I can't finish them! I absolutely can't finish them!"
"Tony, oh Tony, stop sleeping and get back to work!!"
At the same time,
Nick Fury, who was working overtime, was called over by Coulson, who was also working overtime,
They watched the video footage of the Storm Dragondestroying the Vanguard Building with a mouthful of concentrated phlegm, piercing through the sky.
He appeared expressionless, but what he felt inside remained unknown.
"Who do you guess it is?"
Coulson was about to speak.
"I guess it's Aaron!"
Coulson looked up in surprise, "That's right, Officer, you guessed correctly. It's Aaron's masterpiece again!"
Nick Fury's mouth twitched.
Even though he had guessed the outcome, he still found the situation utterly ridiculous.
"I bet this robot can transform too!"
Coulson was slightly confused, "I don't know about that."
"It definitely can!"
Nick Fury recalled the scene of meeting Aaron that morning.
His subordinates clearly reported seeing a luxury sports car.
Yet, when Aaron appeared, the car was gone, replaced by three people.
And they were incredibly tall.
Thinking about it now,
Were those three Hachishaku-sama actually the car itself?
"Rich people nowadays really know how to play."
Nick Fury sighed, "Riding a car during the day and riding people at night, riding 24 hours a day—this life is utterly decadent!"
When he thought about himself only sleeping three hours a day recently,
Unable to sleep during the day, afraid to sleep at night... The dignified Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. was working harder than a common laborer.
He couldn't help but ponder deeply.
The gap between people is wider than the gap between a person and a dog!
"Killian is truly an idiot. Of all the people he could provoke, he had to provoke My Lord."
"Coulson, personally lead a team to collect his corpse, if there is one left."
Nick Fury thought for a moment and said coldly, "If not, just toss him in some garbage dump."
Coulson nodded.
Even ignoring Aaron's feelings, Killian deserves ten thousand deaths!
He was almost done with his overtime, but now, well, he wouldn't be sleeping tonight.
Touching his sparse hair, Coulson let out a deep sigh.
Nick Fury glanced at him, "Coulson, why don't you learn from me? I never worry about that problem."
Coulson was stunned, then looked up at Nick Fury's bald head and suddenly realized.
That makes sense!
As long as you have no hair, you don't have to worry about your hairline!
That night,
many people were destined to lose sleep.
As soon as the Storm Dragon and Bumblebee appeared, they caused a major upheaval among various factions.
However, Aaron, the instigator,
was embracing Tessa and riding freely.
Tessa wasn't just a lightweight when it came to drinking, she was also a lightweight when it came to Ai Cao.
Tessa covered her face, too shy to see anyone.
She told everyone she met that she had been overly excited because Aaron was her idol.
Aaron felt deep disdain for the idea of sleeping with a fan, but if it were him... Emma was truly fragrant!
The four of them celebrated all night,
After that, Aaron began a new experiment.
Since obtaining the power of Transmigration from Shadowcat Kitty,
Aaron was eager to see if he could travel to the past and change history.
He deliberately left a unique Mark on this Universe.
His consciousness sank into the entire World,
In this instant,
He seemed to merge with the World!
His consciousness became ethereal,
and his body felt light and airy.
In that moment, he felt the entire World was illusory.
"The power of Transmigration... this feeling of traveling through time is quite good."
Aaron carefully perceived his current state,
He felt that in this state, he would be invulnerable.
"...This is space..."
"This is time!"
This was Aaron's first time conducting a time Transmigration experiment, and all the sensations during this process were extremely important.
He tried hard not to miss any fluctuation,
carefully experiencing this feeling.
Subsequently,
Aaron completely vanished from this space-time.
At the same time,
the Ancient One at Kamar-Taj paused her expression.
She touched the Eye of Agamotto, feeling that something had just happened.
However, when she searched carefully, everything appeared normal again.
"Since Aaron appeared, have my senses been malfunctioning too?"
The Ancient One shook her head, choosing not to dwell on it.
Because it would be completely futile.
Rather than seeking the root cause, it was better to focus on magic-side events.
June, 1943.
New York seventy years ago was not drastically different from New York seventy years later.
There were already skyscrapers and cars here... but the biggest difference compared to New York seventy years later was that,
men in this city were extremely scarce.
When Aaron emerged from the River of Time,
he briefly thought he had arrived in a Kingdom of Women.
Most of the passersby were women,
and the occasional men walking by were either young boys or elderly men over forty or fifty.
When Aaron walked onto the street,
these foreign women all looked at the Oriental man with strange eyes.
In their impression, Oriental people were generally synonymous with backwardness and poverty.
Yet Aaron was so unique.
He was handsome and tall, and even his clothing was so... trendy.
Aaron's attire, for New York at this time, wasn't overly jarring, instead giving people a refreshing feeling.
Of course, the main reason was that Aaron was handsome enough.
"Hello handsome, do you need help?"
A beautifully dressed blonde woman mustered up the courage to walk over,
As she approached Aaron, her eyes grew brighter. He smelled so good!
I'm sorry Jack, perhaps I'm going to betray you.
Aaron glanced at the woman, sensing other "Qi" on her, and his gaze lingered on her belly, then he put on a professional smile.
"No need, the person I'm waiting for has already arrived."
Aaron politely declined and then walked in a certain direction.
Let someone else deal with the joy of becoming an instant father.
The woman covered her mouth, "Oh my goodness, he looks so handsome even when rejecting me!"
Aaron then approached a woman with long, wavy hair.
"Peggy Carter?"
"Hello, sir, do I know you?"
Peggy Carter looked at the overly handsome man next to her, a little confused, and also somewhat wary.
Although she didn't dislike Aaron, she had recently joined a highly classified mission and subconsciously rejected all strangers.
"My name is Aaron. You didn't know me before, but you do now."
Aaron smiled slightly.
This Transmigration was actually a small experiment.
At the beginning of his Transmigration, he hadn't intended to change anything.
It was only when he returned to the past that he noticed Peggy Carter and came to this point in time.
It just so happened to be on the eve of Steve's successful enlistment.
According to the timeline's development,
Tonight, Steve would be noticed by Dr. Abraham, join the super-soldier selection team, and then meet Peggy Carter.
However, with his arrival, all of this would change...
Chapter 146: Ball Invitation, Seventy-Two Transformations
"Aaron?"
Peggy Carter murmured the name, noticing the envious and jealous gazes of the women around her, and a hint of secret delight arose in her heart.
Aaron sought her out instead of flirting with other women; didn't that prove she was the most charming?
Just as she thought this, another thought appeared in her mind.
Peggy Carter, you must hold firm! You are a member of the Strategic Scientific Reserve, an excellent female warrior!
Beware of honey traps, beware of sugar-coated bullets!!
However, these thoughts had just appeared when Peggy Carter's peripheral vision caught Aaron, and she instantly suppressed them.
How could such a handsome man be a spy?
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Peggy Carter put the documents in her hand behind her back, her red lips slightly parted.
"Mr. Aaron, is your way of flirting always so direct?"
Aaron sat down casually, "Sometimes being direct is more effective, isn't it?"
If any other man had said that, Peggy Carter would have just walked away with a cold face.
But a handsome man is different.
Handsome men always come with a debuff to intelligence and a halo of humor.
The more handsome they are, the more likely women are to lose their rationality and find them humorous.
Even just a smile can lead them to imagine if the other person is interested in them.
Even Peggy Carter was no exception.
Smelling the exotic fragrance wafting from Aaron, her rationality gradually departed.
Peggy Carter just wanted to sit there forever.
However, her remaining rationality brought her back to her senses.
"Mr. Aaron, I'm very curious how you know my name. Can you tell me?"
Peggy Carter was very curious; his familiar manner made her wonder if she had ever worked with him before.
Aaron said without hesitation, "Would you believe me if I said I knew it from a dream?"
His experiences before Transmigration sometimes truly felt like a dream to Aaron.
And seeing Peggy Carter in a dream was perfectly normal.
Peggy Carter was stunned; looking at Aaron's serious face, she actually believed him!
"Are you going to tell me that the Dream God also told you to find me today?"
Aaron shook his head, "Of course not. Our meeting was a complete coincidence. If it had been even 237 microseconds later, we would have passed each other by."
Peggy Carter didn't understand, but she automatically read deeper meaning into his words.
Could it be that Aaron was about to leave just now, but happened to spot her in the vast crowd?
Peggy Carter nodded; if that were the case, it was indeed a great coincidence.
"New York now has about three and a half million women. For you and me to meet, perhaps it truly is fate?"
Aaron was a little surprised; he was still waiting for her to ask for details, but she just accepted it?
Was Peggy Carter's acceptance so strong even seventy years ago?
Aaron opened his mouth; he realized his passive ability was overly overpowered.
What is a Casanova? This is it!
He was the modern Yang Guo!
However, Peggy Carter was only twenty-two years old now.
Compared to the later Carter, she was obviously much more naive, so this situation was quite normal.
But the scale was by no means small.
Aaron glanced at it; it was very rich.
The child wouldn't have to worry about food.
He wouldn't have to worry either.
Peggy was still lost in thought and hadn't noticed anything unusual.
As she thought, Peggy suddenly felt a little melancholic.
Aaron instantly noticed her abnormality.
"What's wrong?"
Peggy Carter changed the subject, "Mr. Aaron, perhaps you will become the only eligible man left in New York. I think you'll really like it here."
New York, with over three million women, was definitely a paradise for men with capital.
While men on the front lines were struggling, men in the big city were indulging.
Someone like Aaron would surely thrive here.
Aaron's lips curled into a smile; he scanned Peggy's inner thoughts.
He discovered that she had already imagined what their child would look like and what their name would be.
However, thinking of the more than three million competitors... even Peggy Carter didn't feel confident of ultimate victory.
Her job required extreme privacy and high confidentiality.
She didn't have much free time.
How could she pursue Aaron?
And how could she keep Aaron?
Little girl, you're overthinking this a bit!
Aaron said meaningfully, "Although this place is good, it is not my home."
"To this place, I am merely a passerby after all."
"I've always wanted to take something away, a treasure of great commemorative significance, perfect, and unique."
"Peggy, can you tell me what I can take away?"
Peggy Carter's heart trembled.
Could it be me?
Am I that outstanding?
Peggy Carter hesitated for a long time.
After thinking carefully, she whispered, "But the war is still going on. I want to end the war and bring peace back to the country."
"Perhaps... that will still take a few years?"
As Peggy Carter spoke, her voice grew softer and softer.
Her heart grew even more melancholic, even sadder.
Meeting Aaron would ruin her for life.
For some reason, she felt that Aaron was her true love, her Prince Charming.
Aaron was the first, and absolutely the only man who had ever made her feel this way.
She felt that if Aaron suddenly left...
Perhaps... her entire life would lose its color.
However, Aaron was a passerby from the East.
He would eventually leave.
And the treasure he took away... would also be another woman willing to leave with him.
Thinking of this, Peggy Carter's heart tightened.
It couldn't be like this!
She absolutely could not let Aaron leave without doing anything.
"There are still two years until the end of the war; that is indeed a considerably long time."
Aaron nodded; he naturally wouldn't truly stay in this World for so long.
There were still many beautiful sights along the way.
They were all waiting for Aaron to enjoy and appreciate them one by one.
Moreover, this was just a small experiment.
He didn't want to stay for decades for one experiment.
He was about to say something,
Peggy Carter bit her lip and said, "Tonight there's a World of Tomorrow Exposition, and afterwards, there's a dance. May I invite you to dance?"
Night? Dance?
Aaron automatically extracted the keywords in his mind, and looking at Peggy Carter's expression, he suddenly felt that his first day in World War II would be wonderful.
"Of course, I've never danced with anyone else before, so I hope you won't mind tonight."
"Absolutely not!"
Peggy Carter secretly rejoiced, "Yay, she's Aaron's first dance partner!"
Aaron reminded her, "I saw what you were looking at just now. Do you have something you need to attend to?"
Peggy Carter instantly came back to her senses, "Oh no! I still need to submit documents!"
"See you at the Exhibition tonight!"
Peggy Carter waved, feeling a sense of loss as she quickly departed.
Aaron watched her leave, pondering what he should do next.
His gaze swept the surroundings,
and saw a little girl in a white dress, blinking her eyes while looking at him.
Aaron smiled at her.
The little girl was not scared at all.
She quickly walked over.
"Older Brother, you're so handsome!"
The little girl's eyes sparkled as she looked at Aaron.
"You are also very beautiful and cute."
Aaron rubbed her small head.
He sensed the presence of the X Gene component in her body.
Moreover, it was in an activated state.
Aaron glanced casually, then froze slightly.
Mystique?
Upon hearing Aaron's praise, the little girl first smiled happily, then seemed to remember something and shook her head.
"I'm not like you. You are truly handsome!"
"But me... I am very ugly."
"Because of my ugly appearance, I was immediately abandoned and seen as a demon. Nobody thinks I look good."
"When you see the real me, you will definitely think I'm ugly!"
The little girl raised her head, speaking strange words.
She was still very young, but she felt an inexplicable closeness to Aaron.
She didn't want to show her bad side in front of Aaron.
Aaron patted her head,
"Raven, don't worry about those things. Is there a possibility that your ability is fantastic?"
"When you grow up, you will find that no man will refuse someone like you."
Marrying a Mystique is equivalent to marrying all the women in the World.
Playing with a different one every day.
You could even switch every hour and never run out in a lifetime.
The so-called Seven-Year Itch simply doesn't exist!
No, maybe it does exist, but it's more likely due to losing function from excessive indulgence.
Going from 1 to 0.
After all, who would ever get tired of a wife like that?
Mystique didn't understand. She looked at Aaron blankly, "Older Brother, what are you talking about?"
"Am I... really that amazing?"
"Don't doubt yourself, you are that amazing!"
"You'll understand what I mean when you grow up."
Aaron looked completely serious.
Raven was indeed very young now; even though she started fending for herself early, she still didn't understand Aaron's meaning.
However, at this moment,
Raven started looking forward to her grown-up self.
Aaron is so handsome; he definitely wouldn't lie!
Wait... Big Brother didn't see the real me, so why is he so certain?
After thinking for a moment, Mystique suddenly ran off again.
Aaron was also momentarily stunned.
But then,
an adult version of "Raven" walked out from the corner.
"Sir, have you seen my daughter? She looks just like me."
Raven looked at Aaron expectantly. Was she really that amazing?
If that's true, then Aaron wouldn't be able to refuse her?
Would he also hit on her, just like he hit on that older sister just now?
Aaron, having eavesdropped on her thoughts, twitched his mouth.
Little girl, you got the wrong idea!
Even in this form, I prefer new, not used. We are impossible!
Raven was disappointed.
She found that Aaron's eyes held neither expectation nor light.
Big Brother seemed indifferent to her current appearance?
Why?
Did Big Brother deceive her?
So even handsome men can lie?
Raven became unhappy.
"Raven, don't do that, I know it's you."
Aaron patted her head, and Raven was instantly reverted to her original form.
She transformed into the blue-skinned little girl.
Raven was stunned, looking at her "true colors" revealed, and then at the surrounding crowd.
Instantly, she felt a wave of fear.
She was certain people would point and scream "Demon!" at her!
"It's alright, Raven. They can't see you. Right now, in this World, there are only the two of us."
"We are located within the World's Interstice. No matter what we do, the people outside won't know."
Aaron knew Mystique was very insecure, so he reminded her kindly.
Raven looked up in surprise, hesitated for a moment, and walked into the middle of the crowd. Yet, everyone ignored her.
They walked right through her.
"You also have special abilities?"
Little Raven understood, "You're not afraid of me?"
"In this form I have now..."
Aaron shook his head, "Don't be insecure. This is your ability. You should be proud of your ability!"
Little Raven shook her head, "But everyone else is afraid..."
Aaron pondered for a moment,
and directly refined one of Mystique's hairs.
[Seventy-Two Transformations: Detected similar abilities have been Fused (Free Transformation, Form Alteration, Super Simulation, Transformation Art). You now possess the ability to transform freely, becoming large or small, not limited to object forms, able to change freely between human and non-human, possessing all of the target's physical and chemical properties, while also possessing a portion of its special properties.]
As the flowing light surged in,
Aaron realized this ability was actually quite good.
Once used, it not only completely matched the appearance of the transformed object, but the aura was identical as well.
It could even transform into parts that shouldn't exist.
And possess some of the target's abilities!
It truly resembled the Great Sage Sun's Seventy-Two Transformations.
Aaron did not delve deeply into researching this ability,
but instead gifted Mystique the characteristics of Mystique's ability without any flaws.
Raven widened her eyes, looking at Aaron as if he were a deity!
