Chapter 163 Assimilating the Reality Gem
Although Sol is now more than 500 years old, judging from his current appearance, it is obvious that he has never experienced true love.

His current performance is not even as good as those teenage junior high school students on earth.

"You are already a mature Thor, so I won't give advice on this, you can think about it yourself."

It didn't matter to Roger whether Saul would be with Jane or not.

If he remembered correctly, even if the two of them were together, they would break up in a few years.

Passion is only temporary, plainness is the normal state of love.

Once Sol and Jane have lost their curiosity about each other, they will soon face the test of ordinary life.

More importantly, the growth environment and living habits of the two of them are completely different, and it is difficult for the two of them to really get along.

"If it were you, how would you deal with it?"

Although Roger didn't intend to offer advice, Sol obviously didn't intend to let him go just like that, and immediately asked.

"If I were you, I wouldn't worry about this kind of thing at all. You and Jane are just in love now, and you haven't reached the point of talking about marriage at all."

"Even if you have really reached that step, it's not a big problem. You are the king of Asgard. You can decide who you want to be with."

"Even if your father and queen mother have some opinions, they are just opinions. At worst, you can marry a few more, such as Sif."

Roger gave his own advice.

However, his suggestion obviously did not meet Saul's requirements.

As an Asgardian who has received lessons from the Asgardian royal family since childhood and grew up in a monarchy like Asgard, Thor's attitude towards feelings is not Asgardian at all.

Among other things, let's take his good friend the Three Warriors of the Immortal Palace as an example, which one is not three wives and four concubines.

Especially Vostage, who is proud of his strong body, is a typical representative. His sons and daughters are almost ready to form a football team.

"Sif told you these words?"

Saul looked at Roger cautiously and asked.

"No, this is just my personal suggestion. You should know that I am not a particularly dedicated person myself."

Roger made no attempt to hide his intentions to be a playboy.

In fact, the women who were with him basically knew this.

"Forget it, pretend I didn't ask!"

Saul shook his head, rejecting Roger's suggestion.

For Saul's choice, Roger did not have any surprises.

If he could accept his own suggestion, there would be no way for him to bother about such a thing.

It is precisely because of his single-mindedness that Sol appears so entangled at this time.

"Then think about it yourself. I'm going back first. If you need any help, you can come to Earth to find me at any time."

After speaking, Roger ignored Saul who was troubled by love, and went directly to the Rainbow Bridge.

After experiencing the unscientific ultra-long-distance and precise teleportation of the Rainbow Bridge again, he returned to the outskirts of Dressrosa.

He didn't let Heimdall send himself back to the city directly.

There are two reasons.

One is that he doesn't want to destroy Dressrosa's vibration gold energy shield, and the other is that he intends to absorb the ether particles before going back.

Although the assimilation of the thread fruit into the infinite gems will not cause particularly obvious environmental damage, but for the sake of safety, he decided to complete the assimilation of the ether particles outside the city.

And unlike the previous two assimilations, the current system is undergoing an upgrade and maintenance.

Looking up at Dressrosa in front of him, he casually summoned an illusory space door and walked straight in.

After using the space gate to reach the forest hundreds of kilometers away from Dressrosa, he took out the cuboid container containing ether particles from the different space in his body.

Holding the container in his right hand, dozens of blue-purple silk threads stretched out at the same time.

Just when he was going to manipulate the silk thread to cut open the container, he suddenly thought of a problem.

The space gem and the power gem are both solid stones.

But the ether particles are different, the present ether particles are not solid, but a mass of fluid.

This also means that he has no way to assimilate through the silk thread winding ether particles as before.

Thinking of this, more silk threads stretched out from his right hand.

When the number of silk threads increased to several thousand, he manipulated the thread to cut open the container made of unknown metal.

laugh!
The sharp silk thread cut the container instantly, and the ether particles bound in the container floated in the air like smoke.

Looking at these ether particles like dark red smoke, Roger didn't immediately manipulate the wire contact, but looked curiously.

The current ether particles surround him like a special life, there is no sign of leaving, and there is no intention to pour into his body.

For some reason, when observing these ether particles, he suddenly felt that the ether particles seemed to have real consciousness.

Interesting!

After silently looking at the ether particles for a while, he manipulated the silk threads, making these threads thinner than a hair pierce the ether particles.

When the silk thread attacked the ether particle, the ether particle that was flying slowly around him suddenly became extremely flexible, avoiding the attack of the silk thread like a faded smoke.

After seeing this scene, Roger felt more and more that the ether particles possessed real consciousness.

Although he didn't know why the ether particles had this special behavior, he didn't stop manipulating the silk thread.

The speed of the silk thread is very fast, and the speed of avoiding the ether particles is also very fast.

Under the siege and interception of the silk thread, the ether particles behaved extremely uncooperatively, and did not give the silk thread a chance to touch itself.

This scene of chasing after me only lasted for more than ten seconds before it came to an end.

Roger shook his head helplessly, and took the initiative to end the manipulation of the silk thread.

Although the ether particle didn't cooperate at all, judging from its performance, it didn't particularly resist Roger.

Otherwise, what it does is not avoiding the touch of the silk thread, but directly showing its ability to modify reality.

The ether particles now give Roger the feeling that he is a pet dog with too much energy.

A pet dog that treats fighting its owner like a game.

Since you want to play, then I will play with you!
Roger retracted the thread gushing out of his right hand.

As the thread gradually disappeared, the ether particles floating in the air approached him again, and slowly flew around him.

At the moment when these ether particles returned to his surroundings, Roger suddenly snapped his fingers.

Snapped!
The moment the sound sounded, silk threads appeared one after another in the air more than ten meters away.

These blue-purple threads are like lasers, shooting at the ether particles from different directions.

The flying speed of the silk thread is very fast, even faster than the bullets fired by a sniper rifle.

But even so, these silk threads from all directions still did not hit the ether particles.

The ether particles in a fluid state, at this time, are like Roger, who has displayed his knowledge-colored arrogance and magma elementalization at the same time, predicting the attack in advance, and opening holes in the elementalized body.

Roger is not surprised that ether particles can escape these attacks from the periphery.

He discovered this when manipulating the silk thread just now.

His real purpose, however, was not to have these laser-like threads hit etheric particles.

The reason for doing this is just to mislead the ether particles.

Yes, misleading!
Roger has now regarded the ether particle as a real living thing, a living thing with self-awareness.

When the ether particles avoided these laser-like threads, blue-purple threads emerged in the air dozens of meters away.

These threads did not attack the ether particles, but flew like a tornado at a high speed.

The area where Roger and ether particles are located is the eye of the tornado.

With more and more flying silk threads, a silk tornado with a diameter of tens of meters quickly formed.

This thread tornado doesn't move like a real tornado.

Under Roger's control, this thread tornado is getting smaller and smaller, getting closer to him and the ether particles.

The wind wall of the thread tornado can completely block the departure of ether particles.

Even if the ether particles try to fly high into the sky, Roger can close the passage above.

To put it simply, he used the thread tornado to lock himself with the ether particles.

Unless these ether particles can travel through space, otherwise, it will definitely be captured by Roger's silk thread.

Sure enough, after discovering that the thread tornado had completely blocked its exit path, the ether particles began to shrink in size.

In the end, under the continuous approach of the thread tornado and the attack of those laser-like threads, the ether particles gradually shrank from a fluid to a solid form.

When the ether particles completely turned into a solid, Roger, who was already prepared, did not hesitate. Lightning stretched out his right hand and grabbed the ether particles floating in the air.

To be precise, it seized the reality gem.

assimilation!

Roger didn't sense the reality gem in his hand, and started to assimilate directly.

The ether particles tightly held in his hand erupted with dark red light, and kept vibrating, trying to break free from Roger's right hand.

Accompanied by the shining dark red light, Roger's right hand showed a strange change that did not conform to scientific reason.

Just as his right hand was continuously changing from normal flesh and blood into triangular prisms and irregular solids, the Reality Gem, which had just solidified into a solid not long ago, turned into a dark red energy and poured into his body.

As soon as the dark red energy entered his body, a magical picture appeared in Roger's mind.

It is a vast universe with countless shining stars.

In the next second, the stars in the universe began to dim one by one, and the dense darkness quickly infected the entire universe like a virus.

It didn't take long for the universe to completely darken.

Roger didn't know how long this picture had been in his mind.

When his consciousness returned to normal, only the forest that had just been eroded by the thread tornado appeared in front of his eyes.

Although the system cannot be activated now, Roger can be sure that the Reality Gem has been successfully assimilated.

He raised his right hand and summoned a silk thread from his palm.

After assimilating the space gem and power gem, the thread of the thread fruit turned blue-purple.

But at this time, after assimilating the Reality Gem, the color of the thread changed again, from blue-purple to black.

Obviously, the color change of silk thread does not follow the principle of color matching.

He didn't particularly care about this.

Whether it's blue-purple or black, even if it's the fancy colorful color scheme of Rainbow Bridge, he doesn't pay much attention to it.

For him who can change the color of the silk thread, it doesn't matter what color the silk thread was originally.

He didn't waste any time, and directly sensed the change in the properties of the silk thread.

Assimilate the space gem, so that the silk thread has the power of space.

By assimilating the power gem, the silk thread has an energy attack method.

But now, after assimilating the Reality Gem, he found that he was somewhat uncertain about the specific changes of the silk thread.

Judging from the appearance, the current silk thread has not changed much except that it has become black.

However, after he really manipulated the silk thread, he realized the "sequelae" brought about by assimilating the reality gem.

If he had to describe it, he felt that the silk thread he was manipulating now was starting to approach the conceptual "thread".

The so-called concepts of thickness, sharpness, toughness, length, etc. have disappeared.

The silk thread in his hand is a "thread" between reality and illusion, which cannot be measured by scientific common sense.

It seems to be a bit troublesome!
Roger now felt that his decision to assimilate the Reality Gem was a little too impulsive.

Although the assimilation was successful, the ability of the Reality Gem turned Silk Thread into a completely unfamiliar existence to him.

After frowning and looking at the silk thread in his hand, he put away the thread and opened the space door back to Dressrosa.

He never thought that at the moment when he successfully assimilated the Reality Gem, the avatar doll that he left beside Ronan and Yondu had a miraculous change.

These avatars made of silk threads suddenly burst into a dark red light.

Just as Ronan, Yondu and the others looked at the dolls shrouded in dark red light with vigilance, these dolls suddenly "lived".

What Ronan and the others didn't expect was that after the dolls came back to life, they actually offered to meet Roger.

Because of the distance, the current Roger doesn't know that the clone doll he used to monitor Ronan and others has come alive.

He is now in the training room, summoning completely different threads over and over again, and thinking about how to adapt to these threads.

He can still manipulate these silk threads as he likes, and he can also use the combat moves developed before.

But the change in the nature of the silk thread made these moves more changes that he didn't understand yet.

The most obvious change is that the moves he developed based on ninjutsu began to look more and more like ninjutsu.

For example, the wall in front of him that was supposed to be a sculpture of a dog's head made of silk threads turned into a genuine earthen wall.
