Tony and Banner had anticipated Ultron's snatch this time; they could only blame Lan Luo for exposing S.H.I.E.L.D.'s situation in advance.
They were currently preoccupied with their internal affairs, and even with Natasha and others joining, Dr. Banner and his team weren't confident in defeating Ultron.
Another point was the mind stone; they didn't pay much attention to it after their research.
After all, Lan Luo, that research fanatic, wasn't even interested in the space stone, so there must be some hidden truth they didn't know.
Moreover, Thor had mentioned that the space stone belonged to Odin, the All-Father, and they had heard that Odin had built a treasure vault to collect many rare items.
However, the infinity stones were not placed inside, which indicated that even the All-Father had some reservations about this item.
They were not the same as before; since the Battle of New York, they had become aware of the existence of other interstellar fleets, and Earth could no longer withstand such turmoil.
Being able to safely hand it over to Lan Luo meant they no longer had to worry.
Tony, who understood Lan Luo best, knew he wouldn't act without benefits; Lan Luo's acceptance this time showed he had the ability to solve all problems.
On Lan Luo's side, having obtained the blood of the superpowered individuals, he eagerly returned to the laboratory, especially with Jean Grey's blood, which contained the Phoenix Force.
The Phoenix Force could shatter the multiverse, resurrect the dead, and possessed powers of self-healing, and flames that could turn people to ashes at will.
The Phoenix Force originated from the primordial universe, born at the beginning of all things, a chaotic yet immortal, eternal yet inconstant existence, a child of the universe.
It is the embodiment of life and psychic power in the primordial universe, symbolizing life and emotion.
It is the connection point for all mental and psychic powers of all beings, existing or yet to exist, across the infinite multiverse, and the creator and source of psychic energy.
It is the storage vessel and master of the life and emotional energy of all future generations throughout the entire infinite multiverse.
The moment Helen Cho saw Lan Luo, she asked, "Did you succeed?"
She was also very curious about the abilities of those superpowered individuals; although she had heard of them, she had never truly seen them, especially since many of their current abilities overlapped with the Devil Fruit abilities of the pirates.
The powers of the White Queen and Diamond Jozu were identical, and the Warp-Warp Fruit and Nightcrawler's ability were also quite similar.
Lan Luo showed Helen Cho a syringe of blood and said, "This is a blood sample of the Phoenix Force, and also the fastest way to strengthen you all in the future."
After speaking, Lan Luo carefully handed the syringe of blood to Helen Cho.
Upon hearing this, Helen Cho carefully took the blood, "Didn't you already analyze it?"
"The Phoenix Force requires an enormous amount of energy, and there's only a tiny bit of it in the blood.
If we want to obtain more, we'll need to create it using the power of the six infinity stones.
After all, this is a power that can resurrect the dead and shatter the multiverse; without such power, how could we retrieve the souls of the deceased from the underworld?"
Lan Luo's words also reminded Helen Cho that this power comes with a price.
In the Marvel World, many seemingly powerful abilities come with a price, whether it's borrowed magic or the monster that Banner turns into.
These heroes can be described as tragic heroes.
"Are there any negative side effects to gaining this power?"
This was also the purpose of Helen Cho's question; since beginning the Surtur experiment, she would first consult Lan Luo's opinion, as many things they were researching now did not exist on Earth.
For example, with the last Surtur experiment, if it had been on Earth, they would have had no way to deal with such a powerful monster.
As long as the eternal fire didn't extinguish, he would have infinite power, never dying, which was terrifying to even think about.
Thinking about Jean's situation, Lan Luo also said, "There might be some, but we should be able to handle them all."
If gaining the Phoenix Force meant turning dark, he could directly control and extract it using the power of the Rinnegan, or use the power of the soul gem to let the good soul steal the dark soul's power.
Lan Luo then added, "After it's made into a potion, I must be present during the experiment."
Helen Cho nodded, and while placing the blood into the separator, she said, "Bring the others over as well."
Lan Luo also took out the blood of other superpowered individuals from his ring, holding up one syringe: "This is Professor X's ability, telepathy, controlling others' thoughts.
He naturally possesses extremely powerful mental energy, and we can further strengthen our minds and mental power."
"Does that mean Haki training will also be completed faster?"
She had been trained to the point of having no temper lately because she wanted to go out.
Therefore, even with the bonus of the infinity stones, their progress in Observation Haki, which predicts the future, wasn't as fast as they had imagined.
They didn't want to stay here their entire lives, but going out was too dangerous.
Moreover, after their recent training, not only had their relationships improved, but their strength had also made significant progress once again.
Previously, Lan Luo only knew to use any ability on them, but through training, they had gradually formed their own combat systems.
Helen Cho, being a researcher, utilized many high-tech abilities, such as the power of the Weapon-Weapon Fruit, and she could turn bullets into bombs, and even don armor, making her quite mechanical.
Christine, on the other hand, was accustomed to using the Ope-Ope no Mi's abilities; her concise and capable demeanor had a significant impact on her.
Lorelei preferred to use the Love-Love Fruit's ability to turn others into stone; the Love-Love Fruit, enhanced with the Basilisk's petrification, meant very few could withstand this ability now.
Furthermore, her mind control and illusion creation were top-notch; if there was danger, she would turn into lightning and disappear instantly, her main strategy being that you couldn't catch her, yet she could endlessly use various abilities against you.
Wanda, during this time, with the power of the time stone enhancing her and wearing ravenclaw's diadem, made very fast progress in her studies, as she was naturally born for magic.
Lan Luo didn't disturb their training; now, all of them wanted to go out and see the world, perhaps do some shopping, after their training.
Although they could go out normally, it always required Lan Luo to accompany them, which gave them a feeling of being unfree.
After handing over the blood, Lan Luo used his omnipotent Dōjutsu to create a piece of silver Adamantium.
This was not the diluted alloy injected into Wolverine; this was a piece of extremely pure Adamantium, containing a portion of vibranium, iron, and some other metallic elements, which formed the core of this metal.
It was a metal never seen on Earth, and there was no information about it even in the universe.
Using his Heat-Heat Fruit and electromagnetic force, the alloy in his hand was slowly heated to 1500 degrees, after which its shape could be freely altered.
Lan Luo found that this form of Adamantium was like freshly blown glass art, capable of being worked, but after cooling, its hardness became extremely rigid.
Lan Luo also specifically used the Ten Rings' special restructuring ability to stabilize the molecules and atoms within this alloy.
However, he still didn't know if it would deform at a high temperature of 500,000 degrees.
