Chapter 436 Variables

"Um?!"

In the antique shop, a faint yellowish color flashed in Li Ran's eyes.

But then, [Gamera] emitted a dazzling golden light from the system's card slot, and with a deafening roar, the dim yellow color in Li Ran's eyes was instantly destroyed.

"Is this the power of the Infinity Stones?"

Li Ran regained his consciousness in an instant. Feeling the vague feeling of being spied on by an inexplicable force, Li Ran couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in his heart.

The power of the Infinity Stones, or the Mind Stones, was more powerful and mysterious than he originally expected. It was actually able to affect Li Ran's body in the antique shop through Dalxi's clone. If Li Ran hadn't habitually placed the A-level character card [Gamera] in the card slot as a trump card, he might have been affected by the power of the Mind Stone at that moment.

The power of the mind?

The powerful power of [Gamera] prevented the original self from being affected by the power of the Mind Stone in Ultron's hands, but the situation of the clone Dalxi made Li Ran more vigilant.

Speaking of which, he had extracted a lot of cards and props from the system's treasure chest, but if he looked carefully, he didn't really have anything in his hand that was specifically designed to resist spiritual power like the Mind Stone. Although, based on the actual situation, It is said that even in the entire universe, treasures with powerful spiritual power like the Mind Stone are extremely rare.

However, it is only rare.

The appearance of Mephistopheles and Hell introduced by Ghost Rider has made Li Ran clearly understand that the world of American comics is deeper than he thought.

And what he needs to deal with is not only Thanos who is thinking about the population problem far outside the universe, but also threats from heaven and hell, and even other dimensions in other spaces, which are far beyond Li Ran's imagination.

Thinking about it this way, even within the earth, it is not as smooth as I thought before.

The water hidden in the shadows of the American comic world is deeper than what appears on the surface.

Just a projection of Mephistopheles has shown a threatening power comparable to that of an A-level character card.

Not to mention those mysterious creatures from other spaces that are inextricably linked to the earth.

The earth in the American comic book world seems to be especially loved by those powerful creatures, and any villain who is pursuing it seems to keep running to the earth.

The standard abilities of these villains seem to be related to mental power.

Corruption of will is even more commonplace.

It seems that when you open the treasure chest next, you need to focus on seeing if you can draw characters or props related to spiritual power.

[Gamera] is certainly powerful, but after all, it is not a monster that mainly relies on spiritual power.

The reason why he was able to resist the influence of the Mind Stone on Li Ran was simply because Ultron, who was holding the scepter, did not fully exert the power of the stone. At the same time, the clone Dalxi on the other side also indirectly took over the main body and resisted most of it. The power of gemstones.

This Indian ascetic with powerful meditative power can be regarded as a semi-supernormal spiritual person. Many of his attack moves are related to the will of meditation.

However, it is obvious that as a B-level card, no matter how powerful Darsi's meditation power is, there is still a clear gap between it and the Mind Stone, one of the Infinity Stones.

Sure enough, in the end, legend is still needed.

In the antique shop, Li Legend Lack Ran looked at the numbers on the system data panel and sighed.

I feel like I need to work harder.

On the other side, in the Jinji Building, the flow of time did not stop because of what Li Ran encountered in the antique store.

"Mr. Reed, you can let go."

Using the power of the scepter to successfully prevent Darcy's counterattack, Ultron's eyes flashed with blue light. He looked at the motionless Darcy in front of him, and then spoke to Mr. Magic Reed who was trapping him.

"you sure?"

He stretched his neck and turned to look at Darsi who was entangled.

Reed looked at the other party's motionless appearance, but the expression on his face was still a little worried.

"What if he's pretending to be controlled?"

"According to my data analysis, such a possibility is almost non-existent."

Faced with Reed's concerns, Ultron did not seem dissatisfied and still answered with his kind and rational voice.

"Although, even now, I still cannot make an accurate analysis of the power in the scepter, but based on the intelligence obtained so far and the analysis of previous battles, the scepter has powerful mind control power, and any creature can only Being hit by the power of the scepter will control the target's thinking. Just now I passed the power of the scepter and successfully sealed the target's mind. Now his mind and body are not in the same space."

"Seal the soul?"

Reed didn't know much about the power of the scepter.

But just listening to Ultron's explanation still makes this researcher-turned-superhero feel a little creepy.

"It's really a scary ability."

"In fact, in Johnny's plan, the scepter is also very critical and can even be said to be one of the decisive forces."

Hearing Ultron mention the question about Johnny, Reed felt a slight fluctuation in his heart. He controlled his elongated body to shrink back to its normal appearance, then glanced at the scepter in Ultron's hand and murmured He said: "I hope everything goes as planned."

"Don't worry, Mr. Reed, according to my analysis, as long as everyone strictly follows every step, there is absolutely no possibility of failure."

"I hope so."

Compared with Ultron's confidence, Reed seems a little cautious.

Because the previous accident of the space storm made him clear that reality is not the exact number in the calculation. On the contrary, there are variables that no one can control.

In fact, just as Reid thought, there are many variables in reality.

Or, to put it simply, even if there are no variables in the situation at hand, someone in the antique shop will forcefully create it.

…

"Now, I need you to be close to that ascetic position!"

In front of Thor, Doctor Doom dodged the lightning from Mjolnir. Suddenly, he felt a clear tingling sensation on his arm, and then the voice of [Kaz] deep in his heart began to become anxious.

Feeling the urging from the [Ultimate Creature], Doctor Doom's eyes flickered under the steel mask.

He raised his head and glanced at Thor in front of him. The current that had been suppressed in his body suddenly surged, forming a dense electrical grid and attacking the location of Thor.

"I already told you!"

Facing Doctor Doom's electric current, Thor made no move to dodge. He waved Mjolnir in his hand and absorbed the current into the energy of the hammer in an instant, and produced a stronger lightning with his backhand to strike Doctor Doom in front of him.

"These electric currents of yours can't cause any harm to me as the God of Thunder."

boom--

The violent lightning fell on Doctor Doom. The powerful current from Thor caused damage in an instant. Even Doctor Doom, who also had the ability to control current, could not completely withstand it.

However, just as Doctor Doom planned, his purpose of triggering Thor's lightning was not for fighting.

With the help of the terrifying destructive impact of the lightning on Thor's hammer, Doctor Doom's entire body flew out as if he had suffered a huge blow.

And the direction he was flying to was clearly where Dalsi was.

"Close, get closer..."

In my heart, [Kazi]’s voice kept repeating.

"Okay, haha, now!"

However, at the next moment, the content of what [Kaz] said in Doctor Doom's heart suddenly changed.

Then he felt the connection that had always existed in his arm quietly break, and then he saw a squirming mass of flesh floating and transforming from his arm into an ugly and weird bird creature, waving its wings at extremely fast speeds. He flew towards Dalsi, who was a few meters away from Doctor Destruction.

"There's a situation!"

All this process, from Dr. Doom being knocked away by Thor to the development plan of a strange bird emerging from his arm, happened in just a few seconds.

When the strange bird appeared, in the entire Jinbin Building, only Ultron, who was next to Darcy, reacted.

A hint of data-provoking light flashed in the blue eyes of the artificial intelligence. He immediately raised his palm and fired a blast cannon, which hit the strange bird flying rapidly in mid-air.

Snap!

The powerful destructive power of the shock wave directly blasted the strange bird in mid-air into pieces of meat and scattered feathers.

Ultron retracted his arm, but did not notice that a burnt black feather fell on Dalsi's forehead behind him without his attention.

"This is?"

Looking at the strange bird that was destroyed by Ultron, Reed's heart suddenly surged with uneasiness. He turned his head and immediately saw the feather that fell on Dalsi's forehead.

However, before Mr. Wonderful Reed could react, the feather seemed to be squirming like life and integrated into Darcy's body under his surprised gaze.

"What's the matter, Mr. Reed?"

Noticing the stunned expression on Reed's face, Ultron turned his head, human doubt in his tone.

"I just saw a piece of..."

Facing Ultron's inquiry, Reed opened his mouth and was about to tell the other party about the strange scene he had seen before.

However, at this moment, all kinds of horrifying squirming scenes suddenly appeared on the body of the ascetic Dalxi who was motionless under the power of the scepter, as if there was a terrible creature inside the opponent's body. Constantly struggling to move around.

“Plans go awry.”

With a faint blue light flashing in his eyes, Ultron looked at everything that happened to Dalsi, and many unexplainable questions arose in his mechanical brain.

He raised the scepter in his hand and pointed it at Dalsi's head again. However, this time, the power of the scepter did not fix his gaze as Ultron had calculated.

Darsi's body seemed to be moving on its own without being controlled by his own mind.

"Mr. Stark, the plan has gone awry."

Seeing Darcy who was squirming more violently in front of him, Ultron immediately reported the situation to Tony.

"This is not good news."

Controlling the steel suit to avoid Cadio's attack, Tony lowered his head and scanned the clear claw marks on the suit while replying distractedly.

"What's the situation? Shouldn't the scepter have already controlled the opponent?"

"It should have been like this, but..."

The blue eyes emitted infrared rays to scan the situation of Dalxi in front of them, and the large amount of data in Ultron's database began to analyze and infer.

With the support of powerful data computing capabilities, in just a few seconds, Ultron has obtained a result from Dalsi's situation that is beyond artificial intelligence thinking.

"Mr. Stark, the development of the situation seems to be more complicated than imagined. The phenomena that occurred on the target are similar to those who suffered in Hell's Kitchen before..."

boom--

Staring at Dalsi in front of him, Ultron really planned to pass the results of his analysis to Tony on the other side. Dalsi, who had been squirming in his body in front of him, suddenly stopped, and then his arm suddenly stretched out. The moment he reacted, he hit the robot.

The huge force generated from the arm was like a heavy hammer, leaving a deep dent in Ultron's hard shell.

Putting away his stretched arms, Darsi stood up slowly on the ground. A large number of muscles on his skinny body began to squirm and deform, and finally turned into a body that was as stone-like but with blood-colored and shiny muscles that seemed to possess A tall figure that looks like life.

"[Ultimate Creature], Mr. Stark, the sealed [Ultimate Creature] reappeared and integrated the members of Jiuyou into his body."

"What?!"

Bang!

The news from Ultron was so shocking that even Tony couldn't help but be distracted the moment he heard the news.

"Suffer death, Iron Man!"

Seizing this moment, Dio's scarlet eyes flashed with a dangerous light, and the next moment he waved his sharp claws to grab the helmet facing Tony.

squeak——

At the critical moment, Tony, who came back to his senses, opened his palms and sprayed out a violent shock wave from his palms, barely evading Dio's attack.

Looking at Tony who was escaping in front of him, Dio grinned and showed sharp suppression, lowered his body and planned to pounce in the direction of Tony.

However, at this moment, a terrifying sense of oppression, as if it were at the top of the food chain, suddenly erupted from behind Dio.

Under this suppression at the cellular level, Dio's face immediately showed a look of shock, and he spoke in a ferocious manner.

"How...how is it possible? Why, why can't my body move? Why, as the King of Vampires, I actually feel a little scared. I have clearly made up my mind and abandoned everything..."
