Marvel's Flash!
Aaron hadn't specifically tested his powers, but he had a rough estimate of their capabilities.
Once he got serious, ten seconds!
To be precise, less than ten seconds!
He could reduce the hundred-story-tall Osborn Group building to ruins!
One must know, his punching speed had definitely broken the sound barrier!
Supersonic running combined with supersonic punches and at least several thousand tons of force—
Even if an aircraft carrier were in front of him, he could turn it into a hornet's nest in the blink of an eye!
Conservatively, he could destroy an American aircraft carrier fleet within ten seconds!
Compared to his strength, his defensive power had actually seen the greatest improvement.
Aaron deduced from the feedback of the Primordial Forge that the "Steel Body" he had previously obtained from Deadpool, though made of Adamantium, wasn't the original version but a modified one.
Although it was Adamantium, in terms of hardness, it seemed even inferior to the Vibranium he had just acquired.
One must know, purely in terms of hardness, among the many metals in Marvel, Adamantium is the hardest!
He guessed that Deadpool's katana was likely a type of Carbonadium alloy, one of the imitations of Adamantium.
However, this material possessed another unique property: it could suppress Wolverine's super healing!
"So, I'm a Wolverine killer now?"
Aaron thought with a strange expression.
Compared to simple physical defense, the energy absorption aspect that followed was the main highlight.
Any attack that landed on him would first have a portion of its kinetic energy and other energies absorbed before causing injury.
The power would be greatly reduced.
This was equivalent to the damage reduction found in some games.
An offensive tank?
No, I want to be a hexagonal warrior!
Aaron thought with soaring ambition.
As for Water Control and Air Control, these were two more elemental powers.
Adding his previous Temperature Control, Ice Control, Lightning Control, and Electromagnetic Control, he had now mastered six special powers close to the essence of the universe.
Just one more, and he could summon the Divine Dragon!
But... "What kind of weird thing got mixed in here?"
Aaron broke out in a sweat.
Who on earth would come up with such a perverted ability?
Hmph!

Chapter 39: New Uses for the Primordial Forge, Skye's Wild Thoughts
"Felicia!"
"I'm here!"
"Come with me to the lounge, I have some good fun for you, baby!"
"Huh? Now?! Boss, you have other arrangements this afternoon, and Miss Skye is still waiting for you."
"Business is urgent! If there's something, get it done quickly!"
Aaron raised his hand and bestowed "Super Flexibility" upon Felicia.
The Primordial Forge had a unique property: once he melted down a species, its data would be permanently stored!
As an existence above concepts,
even when bestowing abilities upon others besides Aaron, there was no need to melt down the same substance again; it could be directly generated from nothing, born from the void.
It had no effect on Aaron.
Nor did it have any effect on the Primordial Forge!
Theoretically, it could mass-produce superhumans of Aaron's caliber.
It could even create more "monsters," "xenomorphs," and "mutant beasts."
For example, if the characteristics of a Hercules beetle were fully bestowed upon someone, that person might gain specialized pincers, a hard shell, and immense strength ranging from several tons to dozens of tons!
Or, by bestowing the characteristics of a tiger upon someone, a tiger-human could be created.
It could even bestow some characteristics of a snake upon others, mutating their bodies to create half-human, half-snake "Medusas."
It could be said that
the upper limit of the Primordial Forge depended on the upper limit of Aaron's imagination and the upper limit of the objects melted down!
The more data recorded, the more these characteristics and concepts could even be combined to create more special experimental subjects.
Therefore,
Aaron, with a single thought, could also transform into a behind-the-scenes villain, mass-producing various monsters and stirring up a massive free-for-all in the Marvel world.
However, behind-the-scenes villains in Marvel usually meet a tragic end.
Aaron currently only wanted to improve his strength while dating girls.
To fully experience a different kind of life.
Of course,
if necessary,
Aaron wouldn't mind creating some "monsters" and causing some "accidents."
In the Marvel world, it's quite normal for dozens of crocodile-men, gorillas, or shark-men to suddenly appear, right?
Aaron was actually also considering whether to train a small team specifically for handling certain clandestine missions.
A monster squad, a mutant beast squad, a xenomorph squad.
And he could completely adopt an alias to specifically command this team.
Then infiltrate S.H.I.E.L.D. or eliminate hostile forces.
On the surface, he was a rising star of the Osborn Group, a capitalist with certain extraordinary abilities.
In the shadows, he was the nightmare that made countless forces tremble with fear.
Expanding his thoughts, he could completely shape his Aaron identity into an elemental-based superhuman.
And this Nightmare identity could be crafted into a close-quarters combat expert focusing on physical prowess and weaponry.
He could also give this identity some bizarre, abnormal appearance.
Or perhaps, an exoskeleton battlesuit? A symbiote? A costume?
Aaron briefly pondered, then shook his head, temporarily setting the idea aside and keeping it in his mind.
Now, urgent matters first!
Some high-difficulty moves could finally be successfully developed!
While Aaron and Felicia were in the lounge having their fun,
in a highly classified laboratory with no internet, no signal whatsoever, and guards layered at the entrance,
Skye waited bored for Aaron to summon her.
Her mind was still replaying everything she had just seen and heard.
Initially, Aaron's private dealings with military bigwigs over America's most advanced fighter jets had made her exceptionally angry.
But later,
when she saw the biological reagents being researched by Osborn, reagents that could change human history and benefit all mankind,
Skye fell silent.
The Osborn Group wasn't conducting any horrific human experiments; instead, they were on the verge of completing a great project that would benefit all living beings—"New Life"!
Yes, this was the New Life project, meaning everyone had the possibility of a new beginning!
Skye was easily swayed, but that didn't mean she was truly a fool.
This was completely different from what the Rising Tide organization had told her!
If she really did break through the firewall and obtain Osborn's secrets, would the Rising Tide organization seize that information for themselves?
Or sell it at a high price to others?
Wasn't this just a simple business war?
Skye felt like something was about to sprout in her head.
The fire of anger in her heart, fueled by betrayal, burned ever fiercer.
Until
half an hour passed.
"Why isn't Aaron here yet?"
Skye ruffled her hair in frustration.
An hour passed.
"Didn't Felicia say he'd come for me very soon?"
Skye remembered the always faintly smiling Felicia and thought they must have been delayed by something.
Three hours later... She remembered Aaron's terrible personality and her heart skipped a beat.
"Could I be... imprisoned?!"
Skye thought of many things.
It was said that certain powerful figures with special preferences would specifically create unique rooms to confine young women for their entertainment.
They would even buy an island... And now,
could she have encountered such a person?
Oh my god! No!!!
In a flash, the fourth hour passed.
Finally,
the door opened.
A flushed and refreshed Felicia brought Skye some food.
"Where's Aaron? I know I was wrong, I'm willing to accept punishment! Don't do this to me!" Skye said with a tearful voice.
Felicia's expression was strange; had Skye misunderstood something?
"Miss Skye, Boss is currently on a date with a beautiful lady, so he doesn't have time for you right now. He might be free tomorrow morning, or even tomorrow noon. So for now, please stay here."
Felicia put down the food, easily pried Skye's hands apart, her face still bearing a polite, distant smile.
Skye was stunned.
