Chapter 176: Space Gem It's broken, can it still be used? Online and more!
This address is the address given to Ding Hao by Nick Fury, where the Cosmic Cube is located, and he also informed the person in charge there that they will hand over the Cosmic Cube to Ding Hao.
This place is not far away, it is actually in New Jersey next to New York, and although Ding Hao has never been there, he also knows it, because this place was once a base of S.H.I.E.L.D., that is, where the antique computers of Dr. Zola's body are stored.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. actually put the Cosmic Cube there to study? But come to think of it, the most researched Cosmic Cube during World War II was Dr. Zola, and after S.H.I.E.L.D. got it, it would definitely look for the research materials left by Dr. Zola, and this base was Dr. Zola's research base. Ding Hao thought.
After that, it will be easy to do, since Nick Fury has agreed to the deal and can't afford to provoke Ding Hao, then he can only obediently hand over the Cosmic Rubik's Cube. So in Ding Hao went to the S.H.I.E.L.D. base in New Jersey. This base appears to be abandoned, but it is a base secretly conducted by S.H.I.E.L.D. called Joint Dark Energy Operation, surrounded by mountains.
When Ding Hao came here, it was during the day, there was no figure in the buildings on the ground, and the entire base seemed to be really abandoned. But Ding Hao's sensitive senses let him know that there was a larger base underground than the above-ground building, and it was in an orderly operation.
Of course, with Nick Fury's consent, and Ding Hao did not hide his whereabouts at all, when he first appeared around the base, the people below already knew that Ding Hao was coming, and they had prepared what Ding Hao wanted, and an elevator was rising towards the ground, and it would not be long before it could reach the surface.
"Mr. Dragon Knight, this is what you want! The director asked me to bring you a message: this thing is dangerous, I hope you can keep it safe. "The one who escorted the Cosmic Cube up was also Ding Hao's old acquaintance, Hawkeye Barton. This guy once surrounded and suppressed Ding Hao with the military in New York, and was saved by Ding Hao.
But apparently Barton wouldn't bring it up, because it was a very humiliating thing for him. He was considered a master in the entire S.H.I.E.L.D., and he was knocked out in front of Ding Hao in three or two clicks. And it's Ding Hao, who has just debuted, if it's now, maybe he will have to kneel in front of him.
But what should be said, Hawkeye still has to say, this is a matter of position, no matter how big the difference in strength is, it must be indicated. After all, he represents S.H.I.E.L.D. and is an organization that maintains world peace. Hawkeye thinks that he occupies the so-called righteous name, and Ding Hao should give him a face.
"What do I do, you don't have to care, even if I smash the walnuts with the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, it's my business, and now it belongs to me, doesn't it? As for the danger you are talking about, isn't it dangerous to hand it over to you to use to research energy weapons? I know a lot more about this stuff than you do, and I know how to use it myself, and I don't need you to teach me. Ding Hao said.
"You ......" Hawkeye thought that the other party would take care of it a little, but he didn't expect it to be the same poisonous tongue, and he seemed to really know a lot of things, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s research can be described as extremely secret, and he was only allowed to participate in this secret plan after being tested many times, why would the other party know?
"Okay, don't guess, now this thing belongs to me, and there is nothing I can see here, so I won't talk to you anymore and go!" Ding Hao jumped directly on the dragon's back as he spoke, and then the dragon spread its wings and flew away, disappearing on the top of the mountains.
"Now that there are no research topics in this base, maybe I can return to the headquarters! The captain and Natasha came once with Iron Man Tony before, saying that the headquarters was infiltrated by Hydra, and we haven't been exposed here for the time being, so don't let me interfere in it, the outside world is much more exciting than here, but there was no way to leave before, and now there is no reason not to let me go back! Barton thought.
Of course, after S.H.I.E.L.D. lost the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, there was really no possibility of progress in the so-called energy weapons, unless they obtained Tony's authorization to build the Ark Reactor. But Tony wouldn't do that, this was a tacit agreement between him and Ivan, and no one could leak the technology of the Ark reactor.
Tony uses the miniature ark reactor to build a warframe, and uses the giant ark reactor to set up an energy company to make money. And Ivan uses the technology of miniature reactors to do the arms business, which is a tacit understanding between the two, both of them make money, and do not form competition between each other. Monopoly business is best, and if Tony authorizes S.H.I.E.L.D. to use the reactor, then they will have a big slice of their pie.
That's right, don't doubt the integrity of these people in S.H.I.E.L.D., who can do a lot of things they think are necessary for the sake of so-called world peace, like the Ark reactors that were installed on top of their three helicarriers without Tony's authorization.
It's just that their technology is far worse than Tony's, and the huge reactor is almost the same size as Stark Industries', but it can only supply less than one-ten-thousandth of New York's space carrier. There is no way to compare it to Tony's reactor, and the cost of building it is much higher than Tony's.
Another important reason is that the copycat reactor that they can come out of themselves is just used to supply the needs of the space carrier, and if they want to use it to provide energy for energy weapons, it is completely wishful thinking. Unless there is a long conveyor cable behind the back of the battle on the battlefield, there is no way to fire energy projectiles.
So without the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, what they need is miniature ark reactor technology. This is the only way to make the energy weapons they develop have a real combat effect.
Of course, in this underground base, there is no research on the subject of energy weapons, but also research on the analysis of the energy of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube. This is even more clueless, because the energy of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube is very unstable, like a disorderly fluctuation, and no one knows when there will be a powerful energy explosion.
And sometimes it is maintained at a very low energy trough for a long time, and it explodes to the peak in an instant, such a powerful energy difference erupts within 0.0036 seconds, which will cause a strong energy magnetic field explosion to the surrounding environment, if humans are in this range, the magnetic field in the body will be chaotic, and even a serious illness or a life may be possible.
Therefore, the research of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube is a very dangerous thing, wearing protective clothing may not be able to guarantee safety 100%, this research topic is the reason for the real establishment of this base, as for energy weapons, if they really want to use them, it is not difficult to buy them from Hammer Industries. There is just no guarantee that these guns will be effective against the Dragon Knights and their own people.
All in all, this is a base that was established to study the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, and now that the Cosmic Cube is gone, the value of this base is gone, and Barton has the ambition to return to the headquarters.
And Ding Hao got the Cosmic Cube and prepared to return to the city, but found that the powerful spatial energy of the Cosmic Cube affected the use of the Returning to the City, so he could only summon the white dragon over, and then rode the dragon away.
He wouldn't put the Cosmic Rubik's Cube into the equipment column in front of so many people, although the equipment column has been known to the world, but it only makes people feel that it is Ding Hao's own ability, the summoning space exclusive to his combat uniform. He wouldn't let anyone know that the equipment slot could actually hold something that was considered an artifact of this world.
Of course, Odin knew that he had taken the hammer of Thor, but he did not know that the hammer of Thor was pulled in by the equipment slot, not taken by Ding Hao.
After flying away from the S.H.I.E.L.D. base, Ding Hao got into the mountains and made sure that there were no supervisors around, so he directly opened the box, took out the demonstrator's blue and brilliant cosmic cube, and then looked at it carefully: "Do you want to put this in the equipment column?" It seems that Thanos can sense the whereabouts of the Infinity Stones, and if they suddenly disappear, will it ...... Directly lure that purple sweet potato essence over? ”
Ding Hao was a little skeptical that this was possible, there was a cosmic Rubik's Cube on Earth, and Thanos sent the Kitari people to rob it, and was defeated by the group of people from the Avengers, and then he also took the Mind Gem he gave to Loki. But Thanos didn't end up in person at that time, just continued to pay attention.
And when the Reality Stone was sent to the Unknown Land where the Collector was, it was patronized by Thanos and captured the first Infinity Stone. He then went to Xandar and obtained the second Stone of Power in the Treasury of the Nova Empire. Obviously, Thanos can sense the location of the Infinity Stones, so will he not be able to sense the Space Gems by stuffing them into the equipment slot?
Now Ding Hao doesn't dare to take this risk, now he is not enough to face Thanos, or for this purple sweet potato essence, Ding Hao has never felt that he can fight now. It was a strong man at the same level as Odin, with a Heavenly Father level existence that used the power of rules.
And if Ding Hao wants to obtain such power, he needs to be promoted to the chief knight, but he calculated that it will take him more than sixty years to be promoted to the chief knight. So wait for this slowly, Ding Hao can't do it, he can only take a risk. Use your temporary foresight to collect more Infinity Stones.
"By the way, the Infinity Stones seem to be mountable, and the accuser Ronan set the Power Stone on top of his own hammer, and then blasted a planet with a single blow." Ding Hao slowly recalled, and felt that he should be able to give it a try, he has vibranium armor and a knight's sword, and he can be inlaid with gems!
According to the game's setting, it is very common for equipment to be inlaid with gems, such as Thanos's Infinity Gauntlet, which is a piece of equipment specifically designed to use the power of Infinity Stones to shoot. And Ding Hao's knight armor and knight's sword are also the same equipment, but I don't know how the inlaid infinity stones will change.
"Do you want to try it?" Among the mountains, Ding Hao thought of such an idea, which gave him a thought that he must try it, and even made him think more and more that it was feasible to do so, and he couldn't wait to hurry.
"Try it, try it! Just inlaid on which one? The armor is vibranium, and it needs to be processed to inlay it, and dig a groove on the vibranium, which I can't do? So what about the knight's sword? This thing is pure energy, and can change the shape a little bit, so one more groove shouldn't be a problem. Ding Hao thought.
Although the knight's sword is completely an energy body, it is not something that can change its form casually, because this is the general state of the equipment and cannot be changed. If the shape of the longsword is changed to another sword, gun, club, or axe, hook and fork, it can still be called a paladin-exclusive longsword? It's not the shape of a sword anymore.
So this weapon can only keep the appearance of a sword, or the appearance of a two-handed greatsword in the West. But in other small details, you can change a little, such as opening a slot to set a gemstone or something.
"Wealth is in danger, since you have decided to try it, anyway, if according to normal means, it is impossible to get the strength to fight against Thanos before he goes out in person, then find another way and start from the external force." Ding Hao gritted his teeth and decisively took out the knight's sword.
"First of all, split the cosmic Rubik's cube and take out the space gem inside, the azure cube on the outside is useless at all." Ding Hao placed the Cosmic Rubik's Cube on a stone in the mountains, and then raised the knight's long sword and cut it down directly.
The energy blade of the knight's longsword easily broke through the surface of the cube of the Cosmic Cube and cut it directly. The long sword directly cut the Cosmic Rubik's Cube in half, as if a waterjet had cut through jelly.
After a sword went down, Ding Hao took back the knight's long sword, and then picked up the cosmic Rubik's cube and checked it, the knight's long sword really lived up to high expectations, and directly cut the cosmic Rubik's cube, and the incision was extremely smooth.
But when he saw that the middle point was more blue than the other areas, Ding Hao looked confused: this seemed to be a big game, and he directly cut the space gems in half. Although he knew that the knight's long sword was very powerful, he didn't expect that the space gem could be cut directly, and the cut surface was extremely smooth.
"How is this possible? Are Infinity Stones so fragile? Ding Hao didn't suspect that Nick Fury had dropped the space gem in his bag, because he could see that the space gem did contain powerful spatial energy, otherwise it would not interfere with the use of the city return technique.
But why was it cut? This is a cosmic-level treasure, it can't be so fragile, and can the space gem still be used after cutting? Ding Hao also has doubts in this regard, as if he posted a post to ask. But now no one has been able to give him an answer, this thing has never been broken.
Infinity Stones are not indestructible, they are just an aggregate of the cosmic origin energy, breaking them will not make the origin power disappear, but only losing the carrier, still existing. Just like in Avengers III, the Scarlet Witch Wanda destroyed the Mind Gem, and Thanos went back in time through the Time Stone, resurrected Vision from the dead, and recondensed the scattered Mind Gem Origin to regenerate the Mind Gem.
But Ding Hao doesn't have a time gem, he chopped the space gem, will there be no way to use it? Thinking of this, Ding Hao directly appeared in his hand with a vibranium fist, held the cosmic cube cut in half, and directly crushed it, revealing half of the space gem.
The other half was also concocted according to the law, and two space gems that were half smaller appeared in front of Ding Hao, but Ding Hao could feel that the spatial energy contained on them was constantly disappearing, and it seemed that the broken gems could no longer be used as the carrier of that spatial energy.
"It's over? Space gems can't be randomly condensed in the universe, right? Ding Hao regretted it, he didn't expect it to be like this.
"No, you can't sit still like this, a dead horse is a live horse doctor!" Ding Hao gritted his teeth and simply continued when he thought of this, the knight's long sword appeared, and a groove appeared on it with a thought, and then countless patterns naturally appeared on the silver-white sword body.
To set gems to allow equipment to gain the bonus of gem power, it is necessary to have such an inscription, and Thanos's Infinity Gauntlet also has a corresponding energy inscription inside, so that it can borrow the power of the Infinity Stones. Ding Hao didn't understand this, but when the equipment approved by the talent tree was inlaid with gems, it would form runes accordingly to ensure that the equipment could perfectly use the power of gems.
"Inlay it!" The space gems that were broken in half were directly placed by Ding Hao into the inlay grooves, and they were closely attached to each other.
"Will it be useful? If it didn't work, then it would be difficult, who would have thought that the Infinity Stones would be so fragile? Ding Hao muttered in his mouth.
It's not that he's pretentious, chopping up the Infinity Stones and complaining. It's that he really didn't expect that he hadn't seen anyone in the movies easily break the Infinity Stones. Only when Scarlet Witch killed Vision, the Mind Gem shattered. Ding Hao didn't expect that his long sword could also be used, and it was sharper than that of a witch.
This is actually a very easy to understand concept, originally in this universe, there may only be a few supreme powerhouses who can break the Infinity Stones, because they are the same level as the Infinity Stones after they are fused together, half a step higher than the Infinity Stones. For example, the existence of Thanos's grandfather who may appear.
Aside from these people, the only one left may be the Scarlet Witch, whose chaos magic is the embodiment of a cosmic rule that can shatter the carrier of the Infinity Stones, but cannot destroy the cosmic origin power contained in the Infinity Stones. That's why after killing Vision, he was resurrected by Thanos with the power of the Time Stone.
And Ding Hao's knight's sword is actually the same thing, it belongs to a carrier of rules, a rule that belongs to Ding Hao alone, and a cosmic rule origin that is not part of this universe brought by the talent tree in his body. And compared to the shattered carrier like the Scarlet Witch, the knight's longsword is more like the collision of two different cosmic origin forces.
Because the Space Gem is only one of the six Infinity Stones, and the Knight's Sword is intact, under the collision, the Space Gem completely belongs to the abused party, and it is directly cut open, and there is no sense of hindrance.
At this time, the space gem that Ding Hao placed in the knight's long sword was not counted if it was tightly fitted, and the mysterious patterns formed a loop, so that when the power of the space gem was not exhausted, it was directly blocked and closed together, and then the entire long sword continued to flicker with this kind of silver bright and azure blue intertwined light.
Although the light is not very bright, but you can still see the brilliance flickering, at this time Ding Hao stared without blinking, whether the inlay was successful, whether the space gem was still useful, all in one fell swoop.
The brilliance flowed, and the silver light continued to penetrate into the azure blue brilliance, eroding into it little by little, and then intertwined, with the invasion of the silver light, the azure light retreated, and then seemed to cause some abnormal changes, at this moment, a faint wind was released from the glowing knight's sword, and then a little blue light appeared in the surrounding space and gathered.
"This ...... Is this the space gem energy that is flowing out? The inlay was successful. The power of the gems is also back, perfect! Ding Hao enjoyed the joy of being lost and regained, and he felt a kind of heartbeat thrill that he had ridden on a roller coaster when he had not gained extraordinary power.
"If it was true that I lost this opportunity because I chopped the gemstones, it would have been difficult, but fortunately it didn't go to the worst." Ding Hao was rejoicing, and then he waited, waiting for the brilliance to dissipate and see the results of the inlay.
After waiting for a while, the light on the entire glorious long sword disappeared, revealing the sword body below, which was still the original size, but in the center of the sword hilt gauntlet, there was a blue gem, and blue patterns spread out from the gem, forming mysterious and beautiful patterns, surrounding the original silver sword body.
This makes the original sword body just silver-white a little more beautiful, and it looks even more gorgeous. And with Ding Hao's black vibranium armor, such a giant sword behind his back also conveys a lonely aura of a master.
"It's really good, it looks better, but how can one gem be inlaid enough, and there are five other gems, all of which will be set on the hilt of the sword when the time comes, and six gems will be lined up on top of the gauntlet." When Ding Hao saw the current appearance of this sword, he set a goal in his heart, he also wanted to collect the Infinity Stones and set them on his sword.
So in the future, will Ding Hao's sword be called the Infinite Long Sword? Thanos' gloves are called Infinity Gauntlets. When Ding Hao thought of this name, he suddenly shuddered, forget it or not change the name, it will be called the knight's long sword.
At the moment, he carried this long sword directly on his back, and he did not plan to put it in the equipment column in the future, so as not to be discovered by Thanos that the space gem was missing. So in the future, Ding Hao is destined to run around with this sword on his back, so that other superheroes think that he has become a. But I have to say that Ding Hao, who is carrying a long sword and wearing armor, is indeed very compelling.
And in the distant universe, a purple-skinned giant sitting on the Void Throne suddenly looked at the Void Void at this time: it was strange, why was there an abnormal fluctuation of space power just now, and suddenly it was calm again.
