An invisible force field intercepted all the swarming miniature rockets, and from behind the continuous explosions and smoke, Iron Man, clenching his fists, charged forward at nearly three times the speed of Mach.
The speed that would tear an ordinary person's body apart was completely unaffected by the Iron Man suit, instead giving it unparalleled kinetic energy. At this speed, even a metal wall in front of it would be smashed through.
What he faced was not any metal wall, but the earth—a hundred meters thick "earth".
The next second, the empty space was suddenly covered by a shadow. Even if Tony Stark, who was traveling at three times Mach, had his nerves reacting to the limit of human ability, he would not be able to react at this distance and would immediately crash headfirst into the huge shadow without any suspense.
It must be said that this Iron Man suit, representing the most cutting-edge technology of a parallel world Earth, is indeed remarkable. Its hard outer shell remained intact even after smashing through nearly five meters of "earth," though it appeared quite distorted. In comparison, the "Iron Man" wearing this suit seems somewhat inferior…
After glancing at Iron Man, who was stuck motionless at the "sword tip," Lin Yi turned his gaze forward.
“You shouldn’t have shown up, much less attacked them.”
Judging from the voice, she was female. She was wearing a hooded robe and a hood on her head. Apart from slight differences in style and color, she looked very much like a wizard from the wizarding world.
Of course, wizards exist in this world, but they are mostly "witch doctors" from primitive times. As for the one in front of us—
“My name is Gu Yi, a sorcerer who protects the peace of the world. Your actions here have interfered with the balance of the world.”
"Interesting. You mean my previous actions didn't interfere with the balance of the world?"
The hooded mage nodded in agreement with silence, then spoke again: "You can choose to leave. As long as you don't get involved here, you can do whatever you want in the East."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi raised an eyebrow: "Can you tell me the reason?"
"...With your abilities, you should be able to sense that the Earth is the center of the universe, and the United States is the very center of the Earth. No matter how the outside world changes, as long as nothing unexpected happens to the United States, everything can continue to operate according to 'fate'."
It's not exactly "big news," it just confirms what we've been guessing. Putting aside other parallel worlds, at least in this chaotic one, it's true so far.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be a series of powerful mutants. Both cyborgs and mutants originated in America. Didn't you see that even the only "Mandarin" in the East regarded Iron Man as his nemesis and desperately tried to squeeze into the West?
Besides this, there are other things that deserve more attention.
"Since you consider yourself the guardian of the world, then these things are also within your protection scope?"
Lin Yi glanced at the mutants hiding below, his tone filled with curiosity.
"..."
P.S.: There's been a lot of heavy rain lately, and the power keeps cutting out while I'm writing, which really disrupts my train of thought... Only three updates today.
Marvel Universe: Chapter 851 "The Dimensional Mage"
Please forgive an elderly person for coming without prior notice.
Somewhere in S.H.I.E.L.D., Nick Fury, who was monitoring the unusual phenomena in the New York sky, stiffened for a moment before slowly relaxing.
"Professor X?"
It's me.
"Are you provoking S.H.I.E.L.D. and the U.S. government?"
Having silently resolved to find a way to resolve this "invasion," Nick Fury showed no sign of weakness in his tone—unless he truly didn't want to stay on this land, Professor X, facing internal and external troubles, would never lay a hand on him.
as predicted.
I come with the sincerity and pleas of all mutants, but my current circumstances force me to seek contact with you in this way, Director.
Sitting down in his chair, Nick Fury stared intently at the massive shadow looming over New York: "Sincerity?"
[...We are willing to assist the United States in its legitimate research on mutants, to allow more mutants to join the X-Men, and we guarantee that there will never be a second 'Brotherhood of Mutants' again.]
It must be said that such conditions are a huge temptation for the U.S. government, which has long been limited by technology and capabilities and unable to conduct in-depth research on the mutant group. Capturing one or two mutants and forcing them to cooperate is a completely different concept from having all mutants accept research and cooperate.
The former could at most create mutant (Wolverine) clones like "Deathgirl" Yuriko Koyama, while the latter could potentially decipher the genetic secrets of mutants, making it possible to grant this ability to everyone... Of course, when that time comes, only a minority will be able to obtain this rare ability, but as long as it satisfies the few people in the upper echelons, it will be considered the greatest achievement of the entire American government, including S.H.I.E.L.D.
Thinking about this, even Nick Fury couldn't help but ask, "What do you want?"
Marx is dead. He proved one thing with his life: hatred only breeds more hatred… I don’t ask to eliminate our current enemies, I only hope to provide all mutants with a suitable living environment.
Nick Fury almost refused on the spot.
If it were about destroying that "dangerous person" currently appearing over New York who is clearly targeting mutants, he might hesitate and seek instructions from his superiors. However, simply expelling the person from the country would not be a problem at all. In fact, he planned to do so even if Professor X did not bring it up.
With Iron Man's fate unknown, New York City is under threat from the skies. Since his arrival on American soil, his actions have seriously impacted the country's security. As the person in charge of these "special events," Nick Fury has a responsibility to eliminate him.
However, the "habit" formed from being in a high position did not lead the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. to make a decision in the form of a commitment, but rather to agree in a tone of "trying as much as possible".
Before Professor X's spirit departed, he left behind a final message that Nick Fury found somewhat incomprehensible.
"...The Ancient One didn't come for us; she came for Earth's future. If the losses in this battle might outweigh the gains, she won't continue. Director Nick Fury, our time is running out."
……
The immense mass of the falling object generated terrifying kinetic energy. Faced with this "giant sword" comparable to a meteorite impact, the Ancient One, who called herself the "Guardian," also displayed the power she possessed—
Like most spellcasting professions, the first step the Ancient One took was to construct a model of the spell, which was outwardly manifested as a magic circle appearing in front of her palm. However, the second step that followed surprised Lin Yi.
Just like the way the giant sword appeared, the giant sword, which was originally falling straight down towards the city, turned "horizontally" the moment it touched the magic circle—as if the "height" and "width" of the local space had been swapped. Although it was the same object, it gave people a completely different feeling.
However, changes in the "height" and "width" of the outside world obviously cannot affect the mass of the giant sword itself. Although it loses its maximum vertical downward impact force due to the change in spatial direction, as long as its mass exists, it is inevitable that it will fall to the ground.
The Ancient One seemed to have anticipated this scene, and when she "cast" the spell again, the target changed directly from the giant sword to New York City itself below.
As if rolling up a sheet of paper laid flat on the ground, a large area of buildings directly beneath the giant sword twisted under the interference of an unknown force—from upright to tilted. The "torn" gap perfectly swallowed and disappeared the falling giant sword, and only after a long time could one feel the faint tremor.
After completing all this, the Ancient One laid the rolled-up "paper" flat again. The person on it was completely unaware of what had just happened and stared blankly at the now empty sky in astonishment.
"...dimension?"
The individual on the paper cannot capture the existence outside the paper, and coupled with the overly "exaggerated" scene just now, it is hard for Lin Yi not to associate it with the concept of dimension.
But if it really is a dimension, let alone dealing with a "giant sword", it could probably even take care of this clone in an instant. Why would it be so troublesome?
Faced with Lin Yi's skeptical judgment, the Supreme God gave a long-awaited negative answer.
[This is a misjudgment; the force is essentially sensory interference and does not possess the ability to forcefully manipulate.]
"Forced operational capability?"
[One of the fundamental concepts of dimensional capability.]
The information suddenly revealed by the main god made Lin Yi quickly turn his attention to the existence in his mind, and he was no longer as patient with the "dimensional mage" in front of him as he had been at the beginning.
Just as this "Guardian of Earth" had finally managed to defeat the "giant sword" and was about to say something to Lin Yi, three enormous shadows suddenly loomed over her head, rendering her speechless for a moment...
"I only target mutants."
Facing the three "giant swords" hanging eight thousand meters above sea level, the Ancient One remained silent for a long time before finally speaking in a low voice: "...I hope you can keep your promise."
The next second they vanished without a trace. At the same time, the swordsmen who had been lying in wait on the ground seemed to have received a signal and drew their blades, officially beginning their journey of "slaying demons and monsters" in a foreign land.
Stop, we didn't—
"I almost forgot about the mouse."
—Nuclear fusion fist, ⑤⑴,)⑦捌:H扒邻⑦tumorI灵*梦 one million tons.
After throwing a punch into the ground, Lin Yi turned and left without looking back.
Marvel Universe: Chapter 852 The Third Element: Time
If it weren't for the sudden reminder from the "main god," Lin Yi would have almost forgotten what it once represented.
—A complete, independent, and powerful concept that combines the power of all the “fragments”.
An accident caused it to shatter, and countless fragments disappeared and fell into the dimensional universe, where they were acquired by various carriers. Gradually, they gained resources and became stronger, while also spontaneously moving towards the path of "unification," which led to the "Fragment Wars."
But is the purpose of the "fragmentation war" simply to reassemble the fragments into a whole?
If that's the case, then given that they can win every fragment war, the fragment holders already possess power that is not weaker, or even stronger, than all the fragments themselves. In that case, is there any need to continue the fragment wars?
The former supreme god was unable to answer these questions due to a lack of data, but now that it has devoured five fragments in succession, even if it is incompetent in other aspects, it should at least be able to recover some records...
Qionghua, a palace.
Returning from the distant other side of the ocean, after isolating oneself from everything around, one asks questions about the existence in one's mind.
"You just mentioned dimensional abilities?"
[Accurate Conclusion]
"Is that related to the data you recovered?"
[Correct judgment]
When was it restored?
[Timescale 17.9058s ago]
He took a deep breath: "What about the restored content?"
[Information regarding the original form of the 'Chief God'.]
Lin Yi was slightly disappointed by this answer. He had thought that the recovery would be something beyond imagination, but now it seemed that it was too early.
Is there any record of the 'fragments'?
[Data missing, unable to be parsed]
as always.
Even just providing the exact number of fragments would be better, at least there would be a fixed goal, unlike now where we don't even know where the end point is. However, now that the "main god" has repaired the information about the original form, if we continue to collect like this, there will eventually be a time when we can repair the information about the fragments as well.
This idea persisted until the "main god" explained what its original form was.
The concept of the fourth dimension
"The concept of the fourth dimension?"
He easily contacted the "Only Master" he had just encountered: "Like that one from earlier?"
If that's the case, Lin Yi could easily take on a hundred of them with one hand without stopping. Of course, as the origin of the "fragments," even if the original form of the main god is useless, it wouldn't be that useless.
This life form is a third-dimensional being, its ability is essentially a distortion of the five senses, its applicability to rules is extremely low, and it does not possess the ability to interfere with dimensions.
"Distorted senses?"
Lin Yi was taken aback. Although it was just a projection, the "giant sword" that had been projected over New York was not fake. If it were just a distortion of the five senses, it would be impossible to distort all objectively existing matter.
In response, the main god, who had restored some of the data, surprisingly provided an explanation.
[By distorting the host's five senses in the projection, the system creates the host's perception that matter has fallen, which is then reflected in reality.]
"So, the one who truly made it disappear wasn't someone else, but myself?"
[Correct judgment]
Lin Yi was speechless: "I didn't expect the natives of this world to have such power. Perhaps I have been underestimating them all along?"
[This is a flawed judgment. The life form was unaware of the true nature of its abilities, merely viewing them as 'dimensional' capabilities. The real cause of the alteration in objective reality was the asymmetry of information between them.]
"..."
So, all I was doing was outsmarting thin air?
After silently sealing away this memory, Lin Yi continued the original topic: "So what is the real concept of the fourth dimension?"
[Possessing absolute observation and intervention rights over lower dimensions]
Although he still couldn't understand it, this "absolute" gave Lin Yi a bad feeling: "Be more specific."
[Taking the correlation between the third and second dimensions as an example, life in the third dimension is able to observe the entire process of matter in the second dimension from beginning to end.]
This isn't easy to understand. It's like drawing a figure on a piece of paper and then erasing it. For you, it's just an unintentional act, but for the figure that was drawn, it's already its "beginning" and "end," or in other words, its entire life.
[Taking the correlation between the third and second dimensions as an example, life in the third dimension can interfere with matter in the second dimension in any way.]
Similarly, when you draw a character on paper, you can choose to erase it, keep it, add settings and modifications to make it look different, set a story for it to have its own "fate", or simply burn it—you can interfere with it however you want, and it won't even know that you, the "interferer," exist.
The same principle can be applied to the concepts of the fourth dimension and third-dimensional life.
My first reaction was bewilderment, trying to accept a concept I'd never encountered before—the bewilderment of going from the unknown to the known. My second reaction was lingering fear.
"...Who are you? Is the complete 'God' a fourth-dimensional concept capable of interfering with third-dimensional life in any way?"
[Correct understanding]
"If we collect all the 'Fragments', then the 'Main God' can be restored to that level?"
[The probability is over 99.99%]
"So, is it possible to collect most of the fragments in advance and then gain some of the 'fourth-dimensional concept' abilities?"
