Marvel's Devouring System

Chapter 101 The Twisted World

After countless attempts, Jonny was finally able to experience that feeling.

It is clearly moving forward in a curve, but it can reach the destination faster.

Before, Johnny was confused by his own eyes, always thinking that the world was what he saw with his naked eyes, but it was not.

The world is constructed by space, but it is quite intricate, even tortuous and distorted.

The straight line between two points is indeed the closest to the naked eye, but if you touch it with the perception of space, you can find that it is actually distorted, and the so-called distorted is actually the straightest path. It’s just that normal people can’t see the distortion and reversal of the world, and think that the straight line they walk is the shortest road.

For example, there is a pillar, and an ant has to climb from the left side of the pillar to the right side corresponding to the other end. Normal ants go around the pillar to reach the right side. For ants, this is indeed the shortest route. However, if there is an ant that can drill into the pillar, easily pass through the inside, and reach the opposite side along the diameter...

In this way, the walking path is undoubtedly much shorter, and Jonny, it is this ant, the space power he has mastered, endowed him with this ability.

After understanding this point, Johnny has fully understood that he can cross a large space without using the haste ability, which has nothing to do with his own speed.

After a thorough understanding, he got the real principle, as if he had broken through a huge barrier, and the world in front of Johnny was completely different from before. "This ability allows me to easily cross space, and the speed in front of me has lost its meaning."

Jonny, whose body was constantly 'twisting' in the empty space, had a smile on his face.

"The next step is the deeper space transmission..."

After completely imprinting this understanding in his mind, Jonny stopped and began to absorb the energy in the Cosmic Rubik's Cube to supplement his own consumption.

This time, Jonny completely let go of himself, freely absorbed the endless energy in the space gem, and prepared to directly reach the limit that his current body can hold.

The entire absorption process lasted for a long time. In the empty space under the base, the majestic space energy continuously entered Johnny's body, and a powerful coercion gradually rose from Johnny's body.

At this time, nearly a year has passed since Johnny entered the retreat, and many things have happened in the outside world.

The most well-known one is Stark Industries. After being favored by the military, the already huge Stark Industries has risen to a higher level. From the original industrial giant, it has become a terrifying business entity that threatens the major consortiums.

I don't know if it's because Stark Industries is developing too fast, which has attracted the panic and fear of competitors. Howard Stark, the president of Stark Industries and one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D., had an accident.

This was a car accident, in which Howard Stark and his wife both died.

In the official notification, the possibility of homicide was ruled out, and the accident was judged as an 'accident'.

After the old Stark died "accidentally" in a car accident, the huge business empire of Stark Industries was naturally handed over to his only son, who was Tony Stark.

At this time, Tony Stark was still very young and possessed amazing talents, but he didn't make good use of them. The issues he was most concerned about usually focused on the latest issue of Playboy Weekly girls and Hollywood stars.

But even so, there is no doubt about Tony Stark's talent. The research results produced in his spare time are epoch-making breakthroughs, allowing Stark Industries to develop rapidly.

In addition to the Stark Industries thing, there were some big things happening at S.H.I.E.L.D.

After years of research, the Goliath Project, which SHIELD has been secretly carrying out, has made a huge breakthrough. The leader of the Goliath Project, Hank Pym, has created an Ant-Man combat suit that can change the quantum distance. He joined hands with his wife Janet. While conducting research, he also participated in many secret operations of SHIELD.

However, it was also an accident. During a mission, the two solved a missile launched by a terrorist. In order to prevent the crisis caused by the missile, Janet, the Wasp girl, shrunk her body infinitely, broke through the shell of the missile, and destroyed the missile from the inside.

But it was precisely because of this that her body was infinitely shrunk, irreversible, and entered the quantum space.

Hank Pym, who was in grief, couldn't bear the blow of losing his wife, especially when he discovered that S.H.I.E.L.D. was trying to copy the Pym particles he placed in the company, Hank Pym broke out completely, and left S.H.I.E.L.D. in a rage.

While waiting for Hank Pym to return to his company, another bad news came one after another.

His most proud disciple, the other directors of the joint company, dismissed him from his post and drove him out of Pym Technology, which he founded by himself, and its purpose was also Pym particles.

After repeated blows, Hank Pym was disheartened, completely disappointed in everything, and finally chose to be decadent.

After Hank Pym was kicked out of the company by his favorite disciple Darren, Medusa and the others, who had been paying attention to S.H.I.E.L.D., got the news and held a brief meeting under Jonny's order.

For talents like Hank Pym, Samuel Stern and others felt that it was necessary to recruit them.

However, the contact process between Morgan Biotech and Hank Pym was not smooth. From Hank Pym’s point of view, no matter whether it was SHIELD, his disciple Darren, or Morgan Biotech, there was only one purpose for finding him, and that was the Pym particles.

Everyone wants to steal his research from him.

In anger, the stubborn Hank Pym rejected Morgan Biotech's offer without hesitation, and disappeared with all his achievements.

In this regard, although Medusa and the others felt a little pity, they did not force others to do so. They did not continue to track and pay attention to Hank Pym's traces.

After Hank Pym disappeared, it had a big impact on the plan of S.H.I.E.L.D. The Goliath plan, Hank Pym was a key figure, and his departure almost made the Goliath plan aborted.

After receiving the news from Hank Pym, Nick Fury was extremely angry, but he had no choice but to vent his anger on other people involved in the Goliath project.

In the end, in order to continue the research, S.H.I.E.L.D. did not hesitate to take the risk and asked the relevant personnel who worked with Hank Pym to restart the plan.

What everyone didn't expect was that the people involved in restarting the Goliath project were under a lot of pressure, because this eagerness for quick success caused a huge accident a year later.
