"Speaking of which, since I now possess the power of darkness, I can totally forge that armor, right?"
Aaron wanted make an armor with four types of power: Wind, Fire, Thunder, and Darkness.
Now, he happened to possess all four abilities.
Do as he pleased.
This was Aaron's consistent style of action.
Following the image in his mind, Aaron began constructing the appearance of the new armor.
With the boost from his current [Super Brain], his brain was like a precise computer. It could clearly simulate every single detail.
Whether it was the lines, colors, or complex structure of the armor, they all took shape one by one in his mind.
Combined with the Super Simulation ability, he could easily replicate the concept in his mind one-to-one in reality.
In just a moment, a set of armor took shape in his hands. But currently, the armor only had the exterior appearance without substantial power enhancement.
Therefore, Aaron injected numerous abilities into it one by one: Fear Control, Dark Force Field, Energy Absorption, Dark Power Control, Etherealization, Key to the Fear Dimension, Thor's Power, Air Control Phoenix Fire, Shape-shifting, Shared Symbiosis, Dark Energy Teleportation, and Particle Beam Control.
Internally, it also had a Core for power supply. Furthermore, it could continuously absorb external energy to recover and it could evolve automatically.
Aaron also used a spell on this armor. Now, the user must be subjected to multiple recognition tests before they can truly use it.
Even if an outsider obtained it, they would be unable to pick it up or wear it.
The so-called recognition was naturally Aaron's recognition.
Only those who had intimate contact with him could receive its recognition and utilize its power to a certain extent.
To fully utilize its power, Aaron's personal permission was required.
However, once someone wore it, anyone would be able to unleash the might to destroy Planets.
Crossing the Universe was nothing to him. The Universe is vast, and he could go wherever he pleased.
Aaron put on Asura (New Armor) and nodded in satisfaction.
It was incredibly cool!
For Aaron, whether it provided a substantial boost in power was secondary, being cool was a priority.
Aaron clicked his tongue. "It's a shame I can't fully experience its might right now. Earth is too fragile."
The stronger his power became, the more constrained he felt when taking action.
There was no helping it. Even a slight exertion of force from him could now trigger an Apocalypse-level disaster.
"When I get a chance, I need to go to Kamar-Taj and acquire the Mirror Dimension."
"The real world simply doesn't allow me to fully unleash my power."
Aaron mused internally, then fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, Aaron arrived at Osborn Industries as usual.
He exchanged greetings with Maria and Gwen.
He had just settled into his seat when Norman rushed in, holding an invitation letter.
"Boss, this is an invitation letter from Professor Charles." Norman respectfully handed the invitation over.
Aaron gave it a casual glance.
Charles hoped Aaron could visit Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters to lecture the students on topics related to biological genetics. He also hoped that Aaron could serve as a good role model and inspiration for the Mutant children, to let them feel the warmth of this world.
Aaron was actually not very interested and he wasn't skilled at lecturing.
Just as he was about to decline, he suddenly recalled that there might be some benefits to be gained at the Mutant Academy.
He narrowed his eyes, carefully reviewing the Mutant franchise.
The strongest was undoubtedly Phoenix Jean, followed by Apocalypse, Professor X, Magneto, and other Level Four Mutants, and then Level Three Mutants like Wolverine, Iceman, and Pyro.
Although most Mutant abilities seemed commonplace to him, there were still some unique ones among them.
For example, Mutants with unique abilities like Rogue and Shadowcat.
Although these abilities all had flaws to some extent, his Primordial Furnace could discard the negative traits and only retain the beneficial ones.
There were also certain specialized organizations dedicated to researching Mutants. They had collected a massive amount of Mutant genes.
If he could absorb all of them, there should be some unexpected gains.
Aaron actually didn't think much of the Mutants' abilities.
Unless they possessed Omega potential, they wouldn't provide a significant combat power boost for him. But every little bit counts. There was no reason to refuse something that could be obtained easily.
"Maria, go search for a person named William Stryker, and also Alkali Lake Dam."
Professional matters should be handled by professionals.
In the past, Norman handled these arrangements. But now he had a better candidate.
Maria, as a former S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent, was clearly more suited than Norman to handle this intel work.
"Oh, and while you're at it, look into a 'Sentinel Robot' project. Gather all the relevant data, I have a use for it." Aaron added.
Upon hearing this, Maria immediately agreed.
While working, she subconsciously wanted to report back to Fury. But she quickly reconsidered. She was now part of Osborn Industries, and taking Aaron's salary while being disloyal felt unethical.
Although Maria could no longer mobilize S.H.I.E.L.D. resources, the connections she had accumulated over the years allowed her to learn what Aaron wanted to know quickly.
Half an hour later.
"Boss, this is what you requested." Maria approached, holding a stack of thick files.
"The top document is the simplified summary I compiled, and the rest are the detailed files."
She did not ask why he needed these materials.
After setting them down, she awaited Aaron's next instruction.
"Excellent work."
Aaron greatly approved of Maria's work ethic.
He had to admit, poaching talent from S.H.I.E.L.D. was the right move.
In handling these matters, Maria was faster than Norman, far surpassing Felicia and Gwen.
Completing the collection, organization, correlation, and summary of the data in just half an hour. This single feat surpassed over ninety-nine percent of secretaries.
Furthermore, Maria was beautiful and capable, possessing a unique charm.
