Marvel Start With Reality Stone - Chapter 44
While the intelligence agencies had not yet arrived.
While the firefighters were still cautiously advancing.
Qi Jun took the opportunity, and with a thought, he teleported directly to the center of the fire.
This was a place Qi Jun had “seen.”
Where the heart thinks, the body moves.
Due to Qi Jun’s three intense absorptions, the sea of flames that had once covered the entire dock had shrunk to just the area initially holding the crude oil.
Not only had the area reduced significantly, but the intensity of the flames had also decreased a lot.
Of course, this was in comparison to the previously engulfing inferno.
The fire here was still formidable; otherwise, Qi Jun wouldn’t have roughly estimated that there could be about ten thousand energy points.
Seeing flames that reached right up to him mysteriously vanish without a trace, Qi Jun knew the passive effect of the [Mutated Stone] was at work.
Without further thought, Qi Jun directly communicated with the [Mutated Stone] and began actively absorbing the fire energy!
Otherwise, if left alone, the [Mutated Stone] would have passively absorbed all the fire energy, and none would be left for Qi Jun.
………………….
With his previous experience, Qi Jun was very adept at this time.
Despite modifying his spatial abilities, Qi Jun could distinctly feel a significant increase in his mental strength.
He could slightly shake the invisible force the [Mutated Stone] emanated.
Of course, it was just a slight shake, as the power of the [Mutated Stone] was still too advanced for Qi Jun; he could only manipulate it a little because the [Mutated Stone] was bound to him.
Just ten thousand energy points and Qi Jun had absorbed all the fire energy in no time! Not even a spark was left!
However, feeling the surrounding light dim and even the temperature at the dock begin to drop rapidly, Qi Jun still found it somewhat unbelievable.
He had never imagined that he would genuinely possess the power to protect himself in this Marvel Universe because of this fire.
Thinking back to his previous struggle to survive, even calculating against mere street-level heroes, the current Qi Jun felt somewhat embarrassed.
“Oh~~”
“My God!~”
“What happened here?”
“The ferocious sea of flames is now gone without even a trace of a spark?”
“My heavens!”
“Could this be a miracle?”
“Almighty Lord!”
“Thank you for saving this lost lamb!~~”
In just a moment, Qi Jun, who had been enhanced twice, could already hear exclamations from afar.
He saw several rescue workers kneeling on the ground, shouting continuously.
Interestingly, Qi Jun noticed that they were kneeling in his direction!
Tsk~~
Is this the heavens wanting him to receive some gratitude?
However, Qi Jun remembered that he had caused this fire.
Heh~
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Qi Jun thought and instantly disappeared from the very center of the fire.
………………….
“34,361 points of energy!”
“Didn’t expect it!”
“I thought it was only about ten thousand.”
“But there were a full 14,361 more!”
“This trip to the docks has paid off!”
“Truly thrilling!”
Back at his ‘new home’ in Chinatown, Qi Jun looked at the numbers in his mind, almost too excited to breathe!
“Let’s not count what was there before.”
“Starting from the first energy absorption.”
“The first time five hundred points, the second time five thousand points, the third time fifty thousand points!”
“Finally, another fourteen thousand three hundred sixty-one points.”
“Adding up to a total of 69,861 energy points!”
“Considering half was deducted by the [Mutated Stone]!”
“My heavens!”
“This dock explosion generated a total of 139,722 points of energy?”
“Plus, what was wasted to fuel the fire.”
“Round it up to about one hundred fifty thousand?!”
“Oh!”
“My God!”
“I must say this sharing ratio is too exploitative!”
“[Mutated Stone], let’s talk about renegotiating our share ratio, shall we?”
With a pained expression, Qi Jun even attempted to communicate with the [Mutated Stone] to improve his share of the energy.
But obviously, Qi Jun failed. The [Mutated Stone] didn’t notice him, leaving Qi Jun talking to himself.
………………….
“Sigh~”
“Alright! Alright!”
“The weak have no rights!”
“Weakness is the original sin!”
“According to the information previously provided by the [Mutated Stone], if I want to increase my share of the energy, I need first to increase my power.”
“But what level do I need to reach?”
“Tch, the [Mutated Stone] is useful but too rigid.”
After receiving no response, Qi Jun looked annoyed, like someone who begrudgingly accepts a favor.
Of course, letting go of the [Mutated Stone] is out of the question!
Who would even dare think about it? It would blow their brains out!
………………….
“Anyway, I just need to focus on increasing my strength.”
“I don’t believe it, and you’re not going to make me reach the peak of this world before you increase my share, are you?!”
“Well, before that, I should test my strength.”
“Whether it’s the power that surged after two enhancements or the newly acquired [Mind Teleport] spatial ability.”
“I need a comprehensive test!”
“If it weren’t for the simultaneous enhancement of my body that also allowed me to handle this sudden surge of power, this room might not have been able to withstand it!”
Looking around, Qi Jun muttered, “I just don’t know if the laptop can withstand it?”
But fortunately, that bad scenario didn’t happen.
Qi Jun, perfectly controlling every bit of his power, casually opened the high-end Huawei laptop he had previously materialized.
He started looking for uninhabited areas where the forests were dense and primitive, utterly untouched by humans.
Testing is testing, but Qi Jun didn’t want to expose himself!
