Whether he's invincible or not, it's hard to say.
But Rhodey is indeed explosively powerful now!
Hmm... He can actually create explosions!
As long as someone bombs him, he can absorb the energy generated by the bomb's explosion and then return it to the opponent.
"The Vibranium battle suit that I thought was quite good before now seems a bit redundant."
Rhodey said with a smile.
Who would have thought that in just under two days, Rhodey's strength would undergo such earth-shattering changes?
Before, that Vibranium battle suit could still give Rhodey a good sense of security.
But now...
That thing would actually hinder Rhodey's Energy Absorption!
"Perhaps I should consider changing my clothes."
Rhodey casually took out a metal cube from his interdimensional space.
This thing was the heaviest metal among the pile of rare metals from before, but it didn't have the magical effects of Vibranium and Uru metal, and its strength was only three times that of ordinary steel.
Its only advantage was probably its extremely high melting point.
Only super high temperatures above five hundred thousand degrees could melt it!
What Rhodey was thinking now was to use this thing to make a bracelet or something, and then use his Disguise ability to change it into a battle suit.
Although Rhodey usually doesn't need a battle suit.
He's not a Superhero.
But not needing it doesn't mean you can't have it!
Just like the luxury cars Rhodey bought.
He couldn't drive them all every day; many luxury cars he bought he had only driven two or three times.
But even if he didn't drive them, he still had to buy them.
Even if he only drove it once after buying it, Rhodey himself would be happy.
In a word:
Rich, and willful!
"But this thing's melting point is too high, it's hard to melt!"
Rhodey was toying with the metal cube in his hand, then suddenly looked up at the night sky outside the window.
Although it was night, the Sun was always there.
It was just that this side of Blue Star was currently facing away from the Sun.
"It's a good chance to test the upper limit of Energy Absorption."
Rhodey thought.
If anyone knew his thoughts at this moment, they would surely think Rhodey was crazy.
Because he actually planned to go to the Sun!
...
Above the clouds, at an altitude of twenty thousand meters from the ground.
Rhodey's figure appeared there.
He was wearing light clothing, his face covered by a black mask, preventing satellites from capturing his appearance.
Cold winds swept past him.
But the cold couldn't harm Rhodey, because the energy was all absorbed!
Rhodey didn't feel cold at all.
He spread his arms, tilting his head back to look at the Moon in the high sky.
The next second—
His body began to fall rapidly!
19,000 meters!
18,000 meters!
17,000 meters!!
The altitude continuously decreased, and Rhodey's falling speed showed no signs of slowing down.
Yet Rhodey himself remained as calm as ever.
Not the slightest bit of panic.
Six minutes later!
In a forest.
A black shadow fell from the sky like a meteor.
Then, a loud boom was heard!
In an instant, the big tree collapsed! Dirt splattered! Countless small animals were scared and fled in a panic! A long gully was plowed out of the ground!
At the end of the gully, in a deep pit.
Rhodey, whose clothes were tattered from the fall, stood up.
He was completely unharmed!
On the contrary;
After he absorbed the huge kinetic energy generated by falling from an altitude of 20,000 meters to the ground, Rhodey felt his whole body was full of strength!
Disguise!
His tattered clothes instantly became brand new.
Rhodey clapped the dirt off his hands, looked at the deep pit that was taller than him, and with a light leap, he jumped to the top.
"Skydiving without a parachute feels good!"
Rhodey said with a laugh.
When he used to do extreme sports, Rhodey had also tried high-altitude skydiving, but at that time, he always carried a parachute.
He even tried wingsuit flying.
But he still wore a parachute!
This was his first time jumping from such a high place without a parachute.
To be honest, that feeling of falling without deceleration the entire time was truly addictive.
It made Rhodey want to do it again.
However;
Let's just forget it for today.
Rhodey still had more important things to do now.
In the sky, a blazing Sun hung high.
This was Africa, located in the Eastern Hemisphere.
Unlike the Western Hemisphere where the United States is located, it was daytime here now.
Rhodey had not tested how far his instantaneous movement limit was before because he could not survive in space.
But this time, Rhodey could finally get his wish.
Having obtained the ability of Energy Absorption, the harsh environment in space could no longer affect Rhodey.
And;
Even if there was no oxygen in space, Rhodey did not need to worry about suffocating to death.
Because he had already absorbed enough energy.
After converting these energies, they could naturally act as a substitute for oxygen, ensuring that his body would not have problems.
"Come on!"
Rhodey looked up towards the Sun.
The next second—
His figure instantly disappeared.
In just an instant, Rhodey had already appeared in the boundless space.
The average distance between Blue Star and the Sun is approximately 150 million kilometers.
And the distance Rhodey covered in a single instantaneous movement spanned one-third of the distance between the two.
That is 50 million kilometers!
Calculated at the speed of light, 300,000 kilometers per second, the time Rhodey spent on one instantaneous movement was less than one second, even if there was a momentary pause between two instantaneous movements.
But it still took three instantaneous movements combined to barely reach about one second of time.
Therefore;
Rhodey's instantaneous movement speed was 150 million kilometers per second!
That was 500 times the speed of light!
Three instantaneous movements, with only a one-second interval in between.
Rhodey had already appeared in the surface area of the Sun.
The temperature here reached 5500 degrees Celsius!
Let alone normal humans reaching here, even approaching would turn them into ashes!
And the moment Rhodey appeared here, the clothes on his body directly disappeared.
Rhodey, who had long anticipated this, was not embarrassed.
Anyway, there was no one here.
Who would he be embarrassed with?
"So there's no Fire on the Sun at all!"
Rhodey was bathed in the light of the Sun, the scorching White light with a high temperature of 5500 degrees Celsius, plus the electromagnetic force spread around, all of which were trying to destroy Rhodey's existence.
However, all these energies were absorbed by Rhodey after acting on the surface of his body.
Except for making him feel even more full of strength.
There was no discomfort at all!
