Melting Pot Concept in Marvel

Chapter 26: Chapter 26: Superman?



[Lightning Control (Electric Eel)]: Similar ability detected, merged… You wield the power of thunder. You can generate, absorb, and store electric currents to a certain degree, and you have strong resistance to electricity.

[Super Vision (Various Telescopes)]: Similar ability detected, merged… You have powerful distance and x-ray vision. You can see the distant stars clearly and look directly at the sun's brilliance! You can also perceive and detect high-energy rays such as X-rays and gamma rays.

[Super Brain]: Similar ability detected, merged… (Similar to what you gained from the phone, but further enhanced).

[Super Vitality (Turtle, Mole-Rat, Clam)]: You now have a powerful life force, surpassing the theoretical lifespan limits of the human species. You can live up to 5,000 years, and you won't age or weaken with the passage of time—you remain forever young!

[Boosting Hands (Octopus Mechanical Arms)]: You possess extraordinarily dexterous hands, far beyond human limits. They can bring the target extreme pleasure.

[Super Immunity (Mole-Rat)]: Similar ability detected, merged. Your body can produce a special high-molecular transparent acid that effectively blocks abnormal cells (such as cancer cells), granting even stronger immunity and resistance to aging.

[Super Respiration (Mole-Rat)]: You use oxygen and energy with extremely high efficiency. Even without oxygen, you can sustain your vital signs for at least half a month by drawing on stored energy.

[Pain Control (Mole-Rat)]: You can regulate pain nerves, selectively "turning off" the sensation of pain, enabling you to maintain formidable combat capability.

[Gene Theft (Green Leaf Sea Slug)]: You can integrate the genes of other species into yourself, thereby acquiring their abilities—this applies to animals, humans, or any lifeform that carries genes.

[Light Energy Absorption (Green Sea Slug)]: You can continuously absorb external light energy to sustain your body and gradually strengthen yourself!

When the bodily enhancements finished and Aaron sensed the new powers fed back by the Primordial Furnace, he clenched his fists in excitement.

His body felt stronger than ever, his mind brimming with energy, as though it might overflow at any moment! It was a vast, potent vitality, enough for him to witness 5,000 years of his country's history!

He also noticed massive changes in the environment around him. He could already sense ambient Wi-Fi signals, pheromones, and various wavelengths of light—but now he sensed even more, including the diffuse glow-energy pervading the air. Without conscious thought, he was absorbing that energy, storing it up. All his cells felt unusually active, slowly fortifying themselves over time!

"Am I about to evolve into Superman?"

Aaron took a deep breath, calming himself. Actually, he basically already had every power Superman did. And extra abilities Superman didn't have! Even if, for now, it was all in a somewhat "weakened form," the future was bright. Sure, he might not be up to defeating Superman—let alone a Henry Cavill-level Supes in another thirty years—but he could surely trounce "Homelander" easily.

Spreading out his hands, he watched white lightning arc between his fingers. They looked like tiny, dancing electric sprites, ready at any moment to become roaring thunder dragons demonstrating heaven's wrath.

He opened a window and gazed out. He could see an eagle thousands of meters away, and even the man-made satellites in geosynchronous orbit, the lines of which were clearly visible—he could pick out components of the satellite. He glimpsed the uneven surface of the moon, the barren plains of Mars, the swirling patterns on Jupiter…all the way to the sun at the heart of our solar system, the source of life—he was literally staring into the sun!

He could even glimpse the starry skies beyond our solar system…

Closing his eyes, flashes of cosmic imagery filled his mind. When he opened them again, instead of the vast, humbling emptiness of space, he saw right down to the cellular level—bacteria on a nanoscale, even down to atoms.

In that moment, Aaron felt like the entire world lay before him. Never had he experienced such a miraculous sensation, as if he grasped the logic of the universe, glimpsing its very essence.

But quickly, he shook his head, abandoning that half-fantasy illusion.

"It's too soon… What I saw was only what Earth's technology considers the upper limit. Actually, not even that; I can't see quantum-scale things yet. Even if I could, seeing isn't the same as controlling. Right now, I'm still too small."

He sighed deeply, his eyes bright with determination.

"But I believe that, with my ability to smelt everything, one day I'll proudly declare to all worlds: This universe lies in my hands!"

Then he closed off his "eye-lamps," picked up some test tubes, and used the Primordial Furnace to fuse the naked mole-rats' anti-cancer, anti-aging, and absolute analgesic traits—weakening them further—and bound them into the liquid in the tubes.

Soon enough, freshly synthesized anti-aging serums, anti-cancer serums, and painkiller serums emerged, one after another.

He couldn't help exclaiming again: "This is awesome!!"

"I'm unbelievably strong!!"

Aaron stayed in the room a while, mainly to organize his newly gained abilities. For an ordinary person, suddenly acquiring so many powers would likely result in not even remembering which abilities they had. Perfectly controlling them would be even more difficult.

But Aaron was different. Having smelted computers, his super-brain had further improved. Even with so many new powers, he managed them relatively easily—instinctively turning certain ones on or off. That would be crucial in a fight.

At length, Aaron grabbed a box in one hand, a few vials in the other, and left the storeroom.

"Boss!" Norman called out. He'd long grown accustomed to the room looking completely empty afterward—and to Aaron somehow producing new serums from who knows where. Aaron's endless air of mystery only made Norman more awestruck and cautious around him.

Still, there was no time to dwell on awe—Norman's attention riveted to the vials in Aaron's hand. His excitement was beyond words.

"Are those…?"

"These are the anti-aging serums I promised, as well as anti-cancer serums, and a little side product—painkiller serums!"
