The impact of the explosion knocked Tony off the roof.
"Flight system failure!" Jarvis repeated the warning twice.
Tony kept adjusting with his palm cannon, but he didn't stop falling. He was about to hit the ground on his face. Suddenly, he felt that this scene was very familiar.
"Open the parachute!" In an instant, a red and gold parachute unfolded from behind, allowing Tony to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Jarvis, please write a thank-you letter to Obadiah in prison later."
Although falling from this height will not kill you, the fact that you can avoid pain shows that the parachute is still necessary.
Volume 1: Chapter 32: A New Element
Under the suppression of many superheroes and military forces, the disaster of void beetles was brought under control, and most ordinary people were safely evacuated from Calville University.
"Charles, if Kassadin falls into a coma, can you modify her memory back?" Kassadin, who was still injured, did not get off the plane, but kept observing Kassadin's movements.
Charles held his temple with his left hand, his expression solemn and frowning as he said, "Kassadin's helmet can block my mental power, and the last time I entered her mind, Viktor drove me out. Its mental power is far superior to mine." Kassadin has already introduced the Void to Charles in detail, so Charles also has a certain understanding of the Void creatures.
"So, the problem is not with Kai'Sa, but with Vel'Koz?" This stumped Kassadin. He had defeated both Kha'Zix and Rek'Sai, and he could even deal with the Void Terror Cho'Gath, but with Vel'Koz, Kassadin never got the upper hand.
It's not necessarily that he can't be defeated, it's just that Vel'Koz has been hiding behind the scenes as an observer, and as the most special Eye of the Void, Vel'Koz has evolved to a very high level.
However, Kassadin will not give up on saving Kaisa.
"Professor! Hank is injured!" Havoc released an energy beam, forcing back the surrounding Void Beetles, and let the Siren help the injured Hank onto the plane.
Although Hank's strength and speed have been enhanced after his beast transformation, he can only fight in close combat and will inevitably be hurt when facing the Void Beetle.
Purple energy continued to surge on the wound, and Hank gritted his teeth, enduring the pain.
When Kassadin saw this, he rushed forward, took out the Void Stone and pressed it on Hank's wound.
The pain was several times stronger than before and Hank couldn't help but scream out. His head was soon covered with sweat and his arms began to wave unconsciously. The siren beside him was at a loss.
Kassadin grabbed Hank's arm and said sternly: "Hold on. If you don't eliminate the void energy, it will infect you and turn you into a real beast. You will have no independent consciousness and will only know how to destroy!"
The process was extremely painful, but Hank, who had common knowledge of the void, knew how serious the consequences of void energy infection would be, so he managed to hold back and successfully allowed Kassadin to absorb all the void energy.
Kassadin was not the only one treating the wounded. There was also Sona who arrived at the same time in the Quinjet. The SHIELD agents had no advantages over the Void Beetles except that they were more difficult to hit. They were as fragile as paper.
Although there were fewer casualties and their injuries were lighter than those caused by capturing the Hulk, the wounds of the wounded were covered with mysterious purple energy. In order to suppress the healing energy of Aria of Resoluteness, even S.H.I.E.L.D.'s technological level was unable to analyze the composition of the purple energy.
Sona knew that these were the energies of the void. Her understanding of the void was limited to theoretical knowledge, so she could not do anything with these void energies for the time being. She could only stabilize the injuries of the wounded first and then conduct research.
Feeling that the losses of the Void Beetles were a bit heavy, Kaisa felt that it was time to retreat. He opened the Void Gate in mid-air and ordered all the Void Beetles to enter.
The void beetles received the order and spread their wings, breaking away from the humans who were entangled with them and flying towards the void gate.
Coulson fired a tracker at the returning beetles, hoping to find out where they were going.
But this was destined to be useless. After the Void Beetle entered the Void Gate, the tracker lost its function.
Just when everyone thought the disaster was over, another building collapsed. Hulk at this moment unleashed the potential of gamma energy and was able to fight Abomination on equal terms.
"General Ross, have you thought about how to deal with these two?" Samuel sat back in his chair, crossed his legs, supported his bar with one hand, pressed the keyboard with the other, and said leisurely.
Ross was also looking at the two giants who were getting more and more excited as they fought, his brows furrowed into a "川" shape. If the destruction continued like this, it would cause a huge negative impact, especially since the military tank company was under his command. He could only transfer them into the city under the name of capturing Hulk.
Just after Hulk suddenly jumped up and hammered Abomination into another building, the deafening noise suddenly stopped, leaving everyone present stunned. Could it be that the winner has been decided?
Tony controlled the iron armor to fly into the hole created by Hulk's collision, and turned on the infrared scan, trying to find the location of the two giants, but found nothing. This weird result made Tony raise his eyebrows. How could two such big people disappear out of thin air?
General Ross soon discovered that the two monsters had disappeared. This did not make him feel relieved, but made him even more nervous. Before, he only had to hunt down Hulk, but now he might have to hunt down Bronski as well. After all, judging from the fact that Bronski just fought without regard for the safety of civilians, he might not have much wisdom left.
He looked at Samuel meaningfully, then left with Betty.
"It's the Void Gate." Kassadin's words solved Charles' doubts. Just now, Charles entered Hulk's spiritual mind and suddenly disconnected.
"It's not a good sign to drag two such perverted creatures into the void..." Kassadin felt it necessary to go to the void to get them back, otherwise there would definitely be bigger troubles later, but he had to wait until his injuries healed.
"I hope it's not too late..." The word "sad" well describes Kassadin's mood and expression at the moment.
Also worried was Ryze who was in the fourth dimension. He had seen the scene through Sona's perspective. The Void's invasion of this world seemed to be a little gentler than that of Valoran, but it was also a heavy blow to humans on Earth.
Ryze, who is addicted to saving the world... Oh no, it's the responsible Ryze who feels that he must give an explanation to the people of Earth about the invasion of the Void. Now the energy of the rune cornerstone has only recovered a little, but it is enough for him to do something.
The light blue rune cornerstone was taken out by Ryze, and an energy called Enlightenment emerged. A golden biscuit appeared out of thin air with small white wings. It flew around Ryze for a while, then flew upwards until it was out of sight.
Sona, who was treating the wounded, did not notice the small cookies that suddenly appeared beside her, about a dozen of them.
Ryan, who had just been treated, happened to see the biscuits. He thought they were specially prepared for the wounded, so he picked them up and ate them.
"Hmm~ It tastes good." Ryan didn't realize that his body had recovered to its peak state, even the void energy had been eliminated. He thought it was Sona's magical magic that had excellent effects.
The number of casualties this time is not too bad, but due to the special nature of void energy, Sona's piano treatment is no easier than last time. After two days of high-intensity work, Sona's fingers are a little sore.
Wait, I seem to be here to investigate the cause of the Void invasion, so why was I dragged by SHIELD to work as a laborer?
Putting the セkoto aside, the mentally exhausted Sona stretched lazily without caring about her image. This normal action looked very sexy. After all, the white rabbits on Sona's chest were about to come out. Fortunately, there were not many people in the cabin and the pilot could not see through the door.
When her hand dropped, it seemed to touch something. Sona looked down and saw a pile of cookies.
"Hmm? What is this?" Sona picked up a small cookie with a puzzled expression, put it under her nose and smelled it. It had a strong fragrance and seemed to be delicious.
Without thinking whether the cookie was poisonous, Sona took a bite directly. The crispy and sweet taste made her eyes widen, but she soon felt something else.
Sona, who is very sensitive to magical energy, discovered that the biscuits actually contained healing energy. This energy was different from the healing energy she released. It was a smaller but higher level energy.
This cookie... is a magic item?
Sona only knew about magic potions and magic pills, but had never heard of putting magic energy into cookies. Could it be that this baker was also a magician?
There seemed to be no one around who could explain the origin of these cookies, so Sona had to find a box and put all the cookies in it.
Tony, who had not yet left the battlefield, was collecting the corpses of the Void Beetles. He found a fist-sized crystal on the head of the Void Beetle.
"Sir, after testing, the element inside the crystal is a new element. Should it be included in the energy replacement project of the Ark Reactor?" This is Jarvis' analysis.
"A brand new element?" Tony's eyes lit up under the mask. An element that could replace palladium, it seems, has a clue?
Volume 1: Chapter 33: Reuse of Void Energy
In the laboratory, Tony was wearing radiation-proof clothing and special goggles with various data displayed on the lenses. He used both hands to manipulate a precision instrument that could shoot lasers and aimed it at a purple crystal stone on a fixed table.
"Jarvis, adjust the parameters and calibrate the wavelength of the laser." Tony said. Although he had simulated the theoretical data many times, he was still a little nervous when he really started. After all, this was a biological energy source that humans had never mastered.
Jarvis detected a trace amount of radiation on the crystal stone, which also contained a huge amount of energy, but it was in an unactivated solidified state. It was initially speculated that it was because the organism powered by the crystal stone died, so the internal energy entered a dormant state.
Tony's idea is to use a special laser to activate the energy inside the crystal stone. Theoretically, as long as the energy is released outward and connected to his own Ark reactor, it will have a similar effect to the siphon principle and continuously provide energy outward.
The energy crystal stone that can drive those purple beetles has been tested and it should be able to drive Tony for more than a hundred years without taking into account the consumption of the armor. Moreover, Tony has collected ten such crystal stones.
The red laser shot out from the transmitter, and the scorching heat made the steel glow red. The beam did not refract into the crystal, but instead, it charged the purple crystal stone and made it glow gradually brighter.
"30 percent, 32 percent..." Jarvis kept reporting the progress and analyzing the energy released by the crystal stone.
The purple light became brighter and brighter, gradually overshadowing the red laser, making the entire lab gay.
"One hundred percent, stopping energy output, docking with the Ark reactor." Jarvis followed up with the report step by step, and everything went very smoothly.
Tony's newly made Ark Reactor was raised on the fixed platform. The part where the palladium energy plate should have been was made into a diamond-shaped groove to facilitate the embedding of the crystal stone.
In order to distinguish it, Tony changed the originally round outer ring of the reactor into a diamond shape. As soon as the crystal stone was successfully docked, the originally light blue Ark reactor was quickly dyed purple, which was more dazzling than the precious amethyst.
"Jarvis, test the energy of the Ark reactor. Can palladium be substituted?" Tony took off his goggles and unbuttoned his protective suit, his movements already impatient.
"Sir, the energy is a perfect match for the Ark reactor. There is an eighty percent chance that it can eliminate the palladium in your body. No substances harmful to the human body have been detected so far." Jarvis said.
Tony didn't reply, but walked forward, picked up the purple Ark reactor, and looked at it for a while. Tony didn't hesitate any more and chose to believe his and Jarvis' calculations.
Unlike other inventors who are excited about their new inventions, Tony did all this to save his own life, just like knocking out the first Iron Man armor in the cave.
He removed the Ark reactor from his chest and replaced it with a new purple reactor. The moment the energy was connected, a strange feeling suddenly spread throughout Tony's body, making him unable to help but let out a comfortable moan. This feeling was like... being purified?
Although I have never experienced the purification that only happens in games, this indescribable feeling is like purification.
Before, the Ark reactor only provided energy to the electromagnetic device on Tony's chest, which absorbed bullet fragments to save Tony's life and could also be used to drive the armor.
But after replacing the new reactor, Tony felt that it was no longer just a battery, but a high-power engine that continuously provided energy to Tony's body.
"I feel... like I'm in... like a suit of armor!" It took Tony a long time to get used to this feeling. He drew blood and asked Jarvis to test the palladium content in his blood.
"Sir, the palladium element in your blood has been successfully removed. Congratulations." Jarvis' voice seemed to have emotion.
Tony laughed out loud, feeling relieved, but unfortunately there was no one around to share his joy.
Sitting on his sofa, Tony wanted to review the experimental records in the computer, but not long after, he fell asleep on the computer desk.
Apparently, he was overworked again...
……
Complex data analysis and testing are also in full swing in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s laboratories.
"Dr. Connors, do you have any new discoveries?" Li, who was wearing a white coat, asked another researcher.
"I think we should start with the corpses of those beetles. It may be difficult to determine the cause of their abnormalities just by looking at the data provided by these wounded." Connors held the tablet in one hand, and the other hand... oh sorry, he didn't have another hand, and the sleeve of his right hand hung empty.
However, no researchers are not optimistic about Dr. Connors just because he is disabled. Connors is one of the greatest biologists in modern times, and SHIELD specially invited him to be a consultant.
"This... this still needs to wait for approval from above. We have to make sure those corpses are not dangerous before we can conduct research..." Li also looked embarrassed. He did not want to lose the opportunity to have an in-depth discussion with Dr. Connors.
Dr. Connors snorted coldly. He had already guessed why SHIELD hid those corpses. It was to research more powerful weapons.
It has been a week since the insect plague in New York City last week, and although the SHIELD agents who were injured in the battle received treatment from Sona, they all exhibited abnormal behavior afterwards.
Constantly hearing inexplicable whispers, suddenly fainting while walking on the road, or suddenly falling into a state of madness and violence, these are all abnormal conditions displayed by SHIELD agents who were injured by the Void Beetle.
Sona had previously reported that the wounded had not received complete treatment and should be kept for observation for a period of time. However, SHIELD's equipment did not detect any problems with the agents' bodies, so they did not immediately address the problem and instead focused on the research of the Void Beetle.
After the problem was discovered, SHIELD researchers quickly found Sona, hoping she could provide some advice.
Sona told the people from S.H.I.E.L.D. everything she knew about the Void, and the news was reported directly to Nick Fury.
Nick Fury didn't pay much attention to the impact of void energy on humans. All his focus was on the invasion of void creatures.
Sona is from an alien planet. This is what Tony told Nick Fury, and he is the only one in SHIELD who knows about it.
Sona said that her planet had been invaded by void creatures, causing a huge disaster.
Although Sona didn't know how serious the disaster was, the threat of void creatures was clear from the two insect plagues in Memphis and New York City.
For alien life, this word is like Nick Fury's heart disease. He keeps asking S.H.I.E.L.D. to develop more powerful weapons in order to resist alien forces that may spy on the earth.
Nick Fury participated in the entire secret incident more than ten years ago. He witnessed the technological level of the alien fleet, the combat capabilities of the alien soldiers, and the terrifying alien creatures like the Metamorphosis. All of these are still fresh in Nick Fury's memory.
"Commander Fury, there has been new progress in the development of the Void Beetle's crystal stones." Agent Hill reported to Nick Fury.
Except for the ten taken away by Tony, all the crystal stones on the scene were taken away by S.H.I.E.L.D.
Volume 1: Chapter 34: Hulk Hates the Void
There are no planets or quasars in the void world. There is only a piece of land that is theoretically finite but has no end. It is a dark purple world with spiral structures everywhere. There is no distinction between day and night.
Ordinary void creatures live in the rocky circle of the void world, a small number live on the surface, and only creatures that have evolved many times will move towards the sky. However, the only ones who can truly be considered "people" in the void world are those void creatures that have evolved intelligence.
They are able to absorb energy from the void on their own and no longer need to rely on constant eating to survive. They call themselves pioneers.
The wise pioneers soon discovered that the void was an extremely unstable space, which could collapse at any time. At that time, all void creatures would be wiped out and cease to exist.
External expansion is both an empty desire and an empty way of survival.
Different planes, different latitudes, different timelines, any possible places, the figure of the Void appeared in countless worlds. The Void creatures that did not originally belong to those worlds descended through the Void Gate. Regardless of whether it violated the laws of that universe, the Void Gate could open the passage.
Some pioneers advocated invading and occupying the world and abandoning the void, while others chose to plunder the resources of other worlds to strengthen the stability of the void.
The Void Emperor is the first and most powerful pioneer. No one knows his origins. Some say he is an outsider who opened the channel to the void plane, while others say he is the void itself. However, those who dared to criticize the Void Emperor eventually fell into the mouth of the Void Terror Kog'Math.
The emperor has many highly evolved and terrifyingly powerful void creatures under his command, so it is often effortless for him to invade or occupy other worlds.
Vel'Koz also obeys the Void Emperor. He was originally the Eye of the Void cast into Valoran, but Vel'Koz seemed to have some kind of adventure and successfully evolved into a Forerunner. His thirst for knowledge and studious personality also made Vel'Koz possess wisdom far superior to other Void creatures. Therefore, he was favored by the emperor and became a figure like a military advisor.
Language, city-states, systems, currencies, professions, etc. are all cultures learned by the pioneers when they invaded other worlds. They were introduced into the void and gradually formed the current situation. The feudal system is just the kind of feudal system in which anyone with the big fist can become the boss. It is not the traditional feudal system such as bloodline aristocracy.
After Kai'Sa teleported back to the void through the void gate, she let the void beetles surround Hulk and Abomination who fell later. Hulk and Abomination realized that something was wrong in the space tunnel and temporarily put aside their previous grudges.
"It seems a bit difficult to infect them all into void creatures..." Kaisa said to herself. Looking at Hulk and Abomination who stopped fighting, Kaisa suddenly felt a little regretful. She had only thought about their strength in becoming void creatures, and did not consider the difficulty of the matter itself.
You know, judging from the combat effectiveness shown by Hulk and Abomination now, the remaining one thousand or so Void Beetles may not be able to do anything to these two muscle monsters.
Although they did not fight again, Hulk and Abomination did not want to be on the same side with each other. They were surrounded by Void Beetles separately. Hulk's stupid brain did not know fear, but Bronsky, who had regained some consciousness, felt uneasy.
As a soldier, he naturally knew what it was like to be surrounded by enemies. The battle with Hulk consumed a lot of his physical strength. The number of Void Beetles surrounding him was huge, and the rotation battle could easily wear him out.
Looking at the Void Beetle approaching step by step, Hulk was not willing to be outdone. He jumped into the sky with a powerful leap. The falling green fat man hit the shell of the Void Beetle like a meteor, smashing it into a meat paste.
After getting the first kill, Hulk pulled out the horn of the void beetle under his feet and used it as a weapon, looking for his next target.
