"System, after the Subspace devoured the Mind Gem, can you directly transfer this part of the power back to me for use?"
[Yes, but the energy transmitted cannot exceed the upper limit that the host's current human body can receive, and the energy consumption is irreversible! ! ! ]
Nice!!!
It actually worked.
Carl's eyes suddenly lit up
This time, the system's answer finally did not disappoint people.
Next, as long as the energy transmission is successfully established, Carl will be able to directly obtain superpowers similar to Captain Marvel's [Energy Manipulation].
Although this superpower seems a bit like a "borrowed" disposable consumable.
But Carl wasn't worried.
You know, every [Infinity Stone] contains almost infinite cosmic energy.
Apart from anything else, the energy that overflowed after the explosion of the [Cosmic Cube] directly created [Captain Marvel] Carol Danvers!
Therefore, each [Infinity Stone] is actually an inexhaustible treasure trove of energy.
Faced with such a vast cosmic energy, even if Carl squandered it without restraint until his death, there would probably not be any problem at all!
And, since these cosmic energies do not come from his body.
So in theory, when using this energy, Carl himself will not incur any consumption.
In other words, as long as his physical strength and energy allow, he can fight indefinitely.
This reminds Carl of a line: We don't produce water, we are just nature's porters.
That's right.
I don't produce energy, I am just a carrier of the [Mind Gem] energy!!
Moreover, in his opinion, if the power does not need to be repaid, how can it be called borrowing? ! !
But none of this is the point.
The real point is...
Who stipulated that he could only devour one [Infinity Stone]?
As long as the [Dimensional Strength] of the [Subspace] can be raised to Lv3 or above.
Then he will have the chance to devour other [Infinity Stones].
In this way, wouldn't Carl's energy be inexhaustible? ! !
I just don't know if this kind of "borrowing" method can allow me to obtain the "psychic ability" unique to the [Mind Gem], which is the ability to read, manipulate, modify, and create other people's thoughts.
"Just do it!!"
Carl regained his fighting spirit.
"In order to record the entire process, Subject No. 380, Mr. Carl Mala, please take the initiative to state your name and confirm your identity."
At this moment, the staff's voice sounded through the external speaker.
"I, Karl Mara, volunteer!!!"
Carl said it again very cooperatively.
The staff member's voice sounded again, "The experiment can begin. Please come forward and touch the scepter."
Carl suppressed his excitement and walked forward with a normal expression.
Then he stretched out a finger and gently pressed on the core area where the [Mind Gem] was located.
Almost at the same moment.
The system prompt appeared before his eyes.
[A special energy substance of the universe level, the Mind Gem, has been detected and can be swallowed. Does the host choose to swallow it? ! ! ]
"yes!"
Karl gave the answer directly in his mind without any hesitation.
boom...!!!
The protective blue energy crystal wall surrounding the [Mind Gem] exploded.
The true appearance of the [Mind Gem] was finally revealed.
The interior, gleaming with golden luster, contains endless and powerful energy.
It seemed that he sensed a dangerous aura.
[Mind Gem] began to continuously release energy outwards, attempting to resist Carl's devouring.
Dazzling golden light, accompanied by an unparalleled torrent of energy, swept out in an instant.
The entire mountaintop base began to tremble violently under this powerful force.
But the next moment.
Everything came to an abrupt halt and returned to peace.
The [Mind Gem] and the terrifying energy it exuded were all swallowed up by the [Subspace].
Then, like a rising morning star, it floated in the dimensional space.
At this moment, the text on the screen in front of Carl changed again.
[Congratulations to the host for successfully devouring the universe-level special energy material Mind Gem! ! ! ]
[Warm Tip: Since the host currently does not have the authority to actively distribute this part of the energy, the energy material will remain in its original state and be directly placed in the subspace dimension for storage. ]
[Host, are you willing to abandon your physical body immediately, return to your exclusive dimension, and become the omniscient and almighty Lord of the dimension? ! ! ]
"Eh? It remains in its original state... In other words, the Mind Gem did not decompose into a pure flow of cosmic energy?"
Carl first rejected the suggestion to abandon his physical body.
Then he gave a tentative order in his mind: "System, start energy transmission immediately. I want to experience the feeling of exploding!"
Next second.
boom...!!!
It seemed as if an endless amount of energy was continuously pouring into Carl's body from the [Subspace Dimension].
His body slowly floated off the ground and hovered in the air.
The dazzling golden light once again illuminated the entire experimental chamber.
But this time, the light shone from Carl's body.
The powerful cosmic secret energy constantly cleansed his body.
Cells, muscles, bones, and organs are all quietly undergoing amazing changes as energy flows through them.
But soon.
Carl felt that the growth of the cosmic secret energy had gradually stagnated.
It seemed that he had reached the limit of what his body could currently endure.
"What a wonderful feeling!"
Carl slowly opened his eyes, and a golden light as bright as the sun that could not be looked directly at suddenly burst out from his originally dark pupils.
The surging energy filling his body gave him an indescribable feeling of well-being.
only.
Considering the upper limits of the human body.
Carl isn't sure if he's reached the level of Captain Marvel yet.
After all, the latter had undergone a lot of transformations after being brought back to the Kree Empire, and had also integrated the blood of the Kree people.
Therefore, the physical fitness must far exceed the upper limit of humans!
besides.
Carl also felt that his spiritual power seemed to have been greatly enhanced during the process of energy transmission.
Even without deliberate exploration, one can clearly sense the presence of everyone inside the entire base.
If he concentrates enough, he can even read the thoughts and memories in these people's brains.
But when he tried to manipulate or modify their thoughts, he always ended in failure!
"Did it simply strengthen my mental power without giving me the ability of [Mind Control]?"
"Or... can psychic abilities only be exerted through direct contact like Loki in the movie?"
Carl frowned and thought for a moment, feeling that the latter possibility seemed more likely.
Because in a sense.
The current [Subspace] is actually more like a special carrier similar to the [Infinity Gauntlet] and [Loki's Scepter].
It allows Carl to use the power of the [Mind Gem] safely and securely.
Different carriers can exert different powers! !
The most intuitive manifestation is in the [Movie Universe].
Thanos's [Infinity Gauntlet] and Vision's vibranium body can both unleash most of the power of the [Mind Stone].
In comparison.
The power that can be released by [Loki's Scepter] is not a little bit weak!!!
