This way, even in this Marvel world, I'll have a tiny bit of self-preservation ability!"
Although there was a momentary mental daze after rubbing off the skill book, Qi Jun was still very happy.
Qi Jun pondered that turning other people's abilities into skill books was truly perfect for someone like him who had no foundation whatsoever.
For someone with zero foundation like him, although he had high plasticity, the time needed to form combat power was truly not just a little bit.
But the ability to turn skills into skill books easily solved this huge problem, so how could Qi Jun not be happy?
Moreover, Qi Jun mused that he could even use this as a basis to slowly get in touch with that small group of higher-level people.
For example, agents? For example, soldier kings? For example, scientists? Even superhumans? Even mages?
Huh?
Why does it feel a little strange?
How does this ability feel so much like—copying?
That's right!
The ability to turn skills into skill books was originally about copying abilities from the target's memory.
Although the form of expression is different, it is still copying, isn't it?
Hmm~~~
If it's just copying, I'm afraid this ability isn't strong enough!
If I copy Doctor Strange's abilities later...
Then I still won't be able to beat Thanos!
No!
The [Mutant Gem] definitely has more to it than that!
The [Mutant Gem] should be able to further enhance skill books!
That's right!
After an ability is turned into a skill book, it can also be strengthened!
With the [Mutant Gem]'s ability, as long as enough energy is provided, there's no need to worry about reinforcement failure or explosion.
If a skill book is enhanced +5, +10, +15, +20, or even +999, wouldn't Thanos turn to dust with just a flick of a finger?
Once again, Qi Jun fell into the beautiful fantasy he had created for himself... After a long while... "Sigh~~~"
After sobering up, Qi Jun looked at the mere 9 energy points and let out a long sigh.
Fantasy is beautiful, reality is cruel.
The more powerful an ability, the more energy points it will require, and it's not impossible for it to increase exponentially!
Let alone Doctor Strange and the Ancient One, even if he just copied an ability from a random Inhuman, the energy consumption would probably give Qi Jun a headache.
So, circling back, the matter returned to an unavoidable hurdle!
Infinity Stones!
How many energy points can he get from picking up corpses?
Even if there were enough corpses for Qi Jun to pick up, could Qi Jun even handle it all?
You see, once dead, life energy will completely dissipate after one hour.
A corpse without life energy is completely useless and extremely disgusting garbage to Qi Jun!
..."It seems I'm going to personally disrupt the plot of 'Iron Man 2'!"
"Before scheming for the Infinity Stones, the first-generation Arc Reactor will be enough to sustain me for a while!"
Qi Jun mumbled softly.
Chapter Fifteen: Preparing for a Secret Scheme?
"Tony Stark, who is fully protected by S.H.I.E.L.D. and the military, cannot be targeted."
"But Ivan Vanko can definitely be abducted and brainwashed to endlessly produce first-generation Arc Reactors!"
In fact, Qi Jun really wanted to kidnap Tony Stark and have him build new Arc Reactors for him every day.
Even better, to build the isotope of the Cosmic Cube's casing every day—the Kryptonite Arc Reactor, that thing is truly amazing.
Qi Jun even suspected whether Kryptonite, this isotope of the Cosmic Cube's casing, had already gained the ability to link with the Space Stone; otherwise, how could it have such powerful endurance?
Qi Jun even suspected that as long as it wasn't used at excessively high power for a long time, with the Space Stone secretly providing energy, could the Kryptonite Arc Reactor operate permanently?
..."Although the first-generation Arc Reactor made with palladium still has limited energy, it is definitely enough for early development!"
"At least, compared to scavenging corpses, the first-generation Arc Reactor is at least ten, or even a hundred times more powerful!"
"Perhaps, I can also infiltrate Hydra?"
"Anyway, they'll all be overthrown by S.H.I.E.L.D. in the end, and even if S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't overthrow them, the Avengers will continue the job, so it's better to let me take their resources for upgrades."
"And Wakanda, it seems they developed Vibranium into a new energy source? Perhaps I can try to absorb a wave?"
"Oh, right, the Inhumans' temple—the Kree's underground city, it seems to have Terrigen Crystals? Can that stuff be absorbed?"
"Thor's hammer, it seems to be forged from a dying star? Tsk tsk, a star, how vast is that energy? I just wonder if it can be directly absorbed?"
"Hehehe~~~ If I absorb Mjolnir, I wonder if Thor can still complete an evolution?"
"I just don't know if there's Odin's divine consciousness inside the hammer?"
Staring blankly out the window, Qi Jun was silently muttering and scheming in his mind.
