Chapter 1064: Chapter 818 I’m Not, I Didn’t
“With this data, at most two months, we’ll certainly crack the Life Equation.”
Tony confidently patted his chest.
Currently, the spaceship from Alpha Corp hovered above New York, with all control handed over to Tony.
The vast data resources onboard had been fully shared, undoubtedly cutting down the ti needed to crack the Life Equation!
“Then it’s all up to you. This thing should surely be helpful to your frail body.”
Now Tao Yu’s own research capabilities could also assist in deciphering the Life Equation, but when free labor was available, it was definitely more enticing.
In the end, he planned to completely drain the data Tony and his team had already compiled.
However, Tao Yu’s words weren’t just empty promises.
The Life Equation’s enhancent to Tony’s frail body would definitely far surpass its effect on Tao Yu himself.
Not exactly pure freeloading…
“Haha, of course, I know.”
Tony chuckled gleefully. As a restless playboy, dedicating so much ti and effort to cracking the Life Equation stemd largely from his awareness of its potential.
Tony himself didn’t have specific ambitions of becoming a god; he was relatively easygoing in that sense.
But after learning spells, now that such an opportunity was in front of him, he certainly wouldn’t reject it…
…
At the summit of Mount Everest, amidst the snow-covered landscape, Ancient One sat serenely atop a stone, her body already cloaked in snow.
With a flicker of space, two figures—Tao Yu and Thanos—appeared nearby.
Following Tao Yu there, Thanos gazed at the Ancient One ahead of him, sensing the aura emanating from her, and his expression changed slightly.
“I didn’t expect the renowned Supre Mage to fall to this extent.”
The Ancient One’s reputation between dinsions was considerable. While it might not be as widespread as Asgard in the starry sky, Thanos had a certain understanding of her.
“Mr. Thanos, you’re joking. If it weren’t for you annihilating half of the life in the universe, that truly wouldn’t be too bad.”
The Ancient One slightly raised her head, brushing off so snow.
Though she had already distributed the corruption across different tilines of her own self, reducing her rotting aura, her eyes still held a deep darkness.
Pupils entirely black, devoid of any other color.
And there remained a faint Abyssal presence on her that even Thanos could detect.
“It seems you must’ve foreseen sothing.”
Thanos, whose strength level had reached a certain threshold and had extensive knowledge of the Infinity Stones, quickly deduced that the Ancient One might have seen a fragnt of a future tiline where he successfully collected all six Infinity Stones and achieved his goal, retiring gloriously.
This gave Thanos so level of solace.
If it weren’t for this Abyss issue, he would undoubtedly have been fully engrossed in his grand endeavor.
There still seed to be a chance for success.
Thanos couldn’t help but glance at Tao Yu.
If he obtained more stones in advance, he would indeed have no fear of him.
“Sort of. Has Master Jack encountered any difficulties? Now, as long as you wait, you should have the opportunity to obtain Ethereum—if the Abyssal influence hasn’t escalated too severely…”
Currently, the Ancient One dared not make absolute claims about the trajectory of the future.
But based on her earlier glimpses, during the Nine Realms’ alignnt, the Reality Stone would manifest in the current world.
“I’d like to first take the two of you to et Odin, the Divine King, and discuss the upcoming circumstances. At present, the God Slayer Gorr in the starry sky likely wields the Abyssal Black Death Sword. I’ve received so prophetic visions indicating potential trouble.”
Tao Yu’s words made the Ancient One pause in thought for a mont before speaking.
“So Gorr has already appeared… There really is a major problem…”
After saying that, she lifted her head.
“In so future glimpses I’ve seen, Gorr acted after Asgard’s destruction, wielding the Black Death Sword. However, that was in futures where the Abyss hadn’t undergone its current twists. Right now, everything’s unpredictable.”
Hearing the Ancient One’s words, Tao Yu paused as well.
So even without the Abyssal invasion, the God Slayer Gorr would surface. That did seem to make sense, though.
“But under my current condition, it’s not ideal to move about casually.”
The Ancient One slightly raised her gaze, seemingly keeping herself perpetually in a state of frozen sluggishness. Combined with the distributed corruption, this helped mitigate further spread.
Like venom coursing through veins, she wouldn’t know how long she could endure once she started moving.
“It’s alright; I’ve already gathered five stones. Suppressing your condition temporarily shouldn’t be an issue. Once all six stones unite, maybe we can eliminate your affliction altogether.”
Tao Yu reciprocated the Ancient One’s favor; after all, she had provided him with angel-round investnts—his very first Infinity Stone!
Previously, he had been powerless, due to his own lack of abilities.
But now, with five stones in hand—at least within the Marvel Universe—combined with his Abyss-specific counterasures and the abilities derived from the Darkhold regarding spiritual forces, he could indeed begin suppression efforts.
“It seems my choice in trusting you wasn’t wrong.”
The Ancient One didn’t doubt Tao Yu’s words, her tone carrying a trace of comfort.
She wasn’t afraid of death and had long been waiting for retirent.
But she didn’t wish to die from Abyssal pollution, nor did she want her death to bring further trouble afterward!
