Chapter 15: Despair and Vitality
Murphy suddenly raised his right hand, the energy impact was launched, and he bombarded the stone gate suddenly, although the "boom" stone gate was hit, but it did not move, Murphy's energy impact turned out to be ineffective against it, Murphy felt wrong, this should be the soul gem protecting the stone gate.
Otherwise, his attack would not be ineffective, and Murphy, just in case, walked up and wanted to scrape some pieces of the stone door, and then analyze it. But no matter how much strength he used, Murphy couldn't scrape off the slightest, and the soul gem should be in the stone gate, but he couldn't do anything about it.
Give up, Murphy can only give up, the maximum power of the mechanical body is limited, and the energy is now very precious, Murphy can only give up. He slowly squatted down under the stone door, the energy use in his body was reduced to a minimum, and he sent various modes of distress signals, and then fell silent.
……
The timer in his body was still running, and there was no problem at all, so Murphy silently watched the time, waiting for unknown rescue, this was his last hope.
The planet of Womir was extremely desolate, and every time the wind blew, it carried some sand and dust, and gradually Murphy's body began to be covered with a thick layer of ash, and the liquid metal was completely still, and Murphy also allowed the dust to fall. I don't know how long he has to wait here, he has to save every ounce of energy, although there is still a cold nuclear reactor for the new element to spare, but if Thanos comes here, Murphy will still have to fight.
Time ticks and ticks slowly, a year, two years...... I wonder if the aliens don't understand the meaning of their signals, or if the signals are not far enough? No one has been here for a decade, and if it were on Earth, it would have been the end of 1953. The timer faithfully recorded the passage of time, and Murphy crouched quietly, no longer recognizable from a distance, though he wasn't.
The real horror is that he is not a fully intelligent life, and the human mind makes Murphy start to fear, incomparably fearful. Time may not be a big deal, but the endless wait makes Murphy slowly despair.
Ten years later, another decade, Murphy was completely desperate, and for twenty years he had been sending signals without stopping, but still no one came to see him, and Murphy's mind began to lose the slightest hope. He really wanted to get up and go crazy to destroy, but what could he destroy here? Except for the bare mountains and dusty deserts, the only civilization here is this stone gate.
The soul gem is here, but to get it you need to sacrifice a soul, and Murphy can't even sacrifice his own soul, maybe he doesn't have it at all? Another ten years passed from the beginning to the end of despair, Murphy stared at the timer numbly and indifferently, he still sent signals, but this was the initial setting, and he stared at the timer only because he didn't move, in the central processing unit of the mechanical body, Murphy did not move.
The huge timer in front of him was just a scene he simulated, if Murphy was a human being, he would be the walking dead now, without any emotional fluctuations, it had been thirty years, and it was 1973 on Earth.
Murphy didn't have the slightest thought, and the accumulation outside his body began to harden, and more, he now looked at money more like a stone, and he couldn't see anything without looking carefully.
"Buzz......" On this day, the stone door shook, and then a shock spread, and the covering on the surface of Murphy's body cracked directly, and then scattered one after another, and the body reappeared. A gem fell from the sky and floated in front of Murphy, Murphy's eyes lit up, and his already numb mind came alive again, "This is?" With some difficulty, with doubts, he stretched out his palm to hold up the gem.
"Soul Gem? Why did it appear in front of me, and what happened? "Murphy didn't understand, he really didn't understand, thirty years had passed, there was not the slightest hope, no interstellar travelers passing by, and no one had received his signal.
Just like that, the Soul Gem ran out on its own, saving him from his numbness, "Soul? Do I have a soul too? Murphy pondered. Murphy has been through thirty years, and the change of mind has also been through thirty years, what exactly triggered the soul gem? I didn't sacrifice my beloved soul, and it's hard to say if I had a soul.
The specific reason is not clear, but the soul gem took the initiative to appear, then he really mastered this gem, Murphy thought of this, the liquid metal on the outside became active again, the position of the chest spread, and the deformation of the metal bone opened a hole. Murphy replaced the location of the new elemental cold nuclear reactor with soul gems, and fortunately the bones were designed with a deformation function, and a suitable small groove was formed.
Then Murphy tried to use the energy in the soul gem to drive, the liquid energy transmission was interrupted, the "hum" was running normally, and the energy instantly reached the maximum peak, Murphy smiled, "Haha...... It's time to get out of here. "Murphy got the soul gem and got a way out of here.
The electromagnetic wave impact of the left hand was modified, and it was also changed to energy impact, and the insufficient parts were first made up for with liquid metal, and then both hands tried to activate the energy impact, and the body instantly detached from the ground, and the liquid metal on Murphy's appearance began to deform and adjust to a state suitable for flight.
Strengthened the energy impact, Murphy rushed directly out of the planet Wommel and flew into the universe. The speed is not fast, and the energy impact cannot be released for too long, he didn't think about flying at the beginning, and now his left hand is just a temporary modification, but as long as there is a force in the universe, then he can keep moving forward, and he can adjust the direction from time to time.
Anyway, now that he has finally left the Death Star, Murphy is moving towards hope, although there are endless dangers in the universe, but the vibranium skeleton gives him strong confidence, and at the same time, he is a mechanical body, and it is not easy to destroy him.
Hope is ahead, Murphy sees a direction and keeps flying, he doesn't know what he will encounter, and he doesn't know what kind of alien civilization he will encounter, but the universe is too vast, the direction is not something he can distinguish, and the earth doesn't know where it is, so it's better to keep flying.
With the help of the soul gem, Murphy no longer worries about energy, and naturally he will not be trapped in place waiting for Thanos, there is still time to see if he can return to Earth as soon as possible, the time travel game is really terrifying.
"It can't be because I've traveled time that the Space Gem banished me, right?" Murphy is a little puzzled by this, it is impossible for the space gems inside the Cosmic Cube to send themselves out for no reason, there must be a reason for this, but there is no way to know the specifics, he can't communicate with the Infinity Stones, and he doesn't dare to try it easily, it's too terrifying.
