Chapter 50: The Sudden Appearance of Iron Man

Without Qi Jun's active command to stop, the [Mutated Stone] obediently worked according to his previous instructions.
"Exactly!"
"I knew it!"
"If it were one point per minute, six hours wouldn't give me 628 points! That's just not enough."
"Waking up from sleep, not only is my body's energy fully replenished, but the [Mutated Stone] also gained 628 points."
"It's indeed because the energy absorbed each minute increased!"
Qi Jun nodded in satisfaction, quite pleased with himself.
"Now, it's time to try adding some reflective mirrors to see the effect!"
Shaking off the sand from his body, Qi Jun chose a direction and sat cross-legged.
With a thought, he spent a point of energy, and a floor-to-ceiling mirror as tall as Qi Jun himself materialized, placed at a perfectly calculated angle.
As soon as the mirror was set up, a beam of reflected sunlight shone on Qi Jun, illuminating his entire front.

"Holy cow!"
"It works!"
Qi Jun couldn't help but shout out loud!
"Add more!"
"Add more!"
"I must test the limit today!"
Qi Jun began to materialize mirror after mirror.
And the effectiveness of his energy absorption started to increase dramatically.

+132...
Qi Jun stopped materializing mirrors when he reached an energy absorption rate of 132 points per second.
It wasn't that Qi Jun had reached his limit in absorbing light energy, nor did he lose the desire to absorb more, nor was it because he had reached the maximum absorption capacity.
Instead, it was because it was getting to be evening, and the sun was about to set below the horizon!
Due to the angle, Qi Jun couldn't position any more mirrors!
One mirror added two points per minute to the limit, and Qi Jun had materialized 65 mirrors.
Along with the direct sunlight on Qi Jun, he could absorb 132 energy points per minute!
If he could continue, why wouldn't Qi Jun add more?
However, even so, it was more than enough!
In just those ten minutes, Qi Jun had absorbed another 1,000 points of energy, enough to excite him immensely!
Of course, due to the increased number of mirrors, Qi Jun had to get up and adjust the angles of the mirrors, which wasted some energy.
This made Qi Jun somewhat uncomfortable.
"It looks like I need to materialize a mobile, intelligent mirror array!"
"Just sitting in the center, with these reflective mirrors automatically adjusting to ensure they capture every bit of sunlight on me!"
Qi Jun silently summarized his thoughts.
"Sigh~"
"Us academically challenged folks are doomed to be looked down upon!"
"Even when there's no one around, I despise myself!"
"It took me so long to think of this."
"If I were a top student or a genius, I might have materialized an intelligent control mirror array from the start!"
Qi Jun let out a deep sigh from the bottom of his heart.
"Wait a minute!"
"How could a top student or a genius materialize an intelligent control mirror array!"
"I should have thought of this sooner!"
"Head straight to space!"
"With my [Mind Teleport] ability, going to space is simpler than sprinkling water!"
"I'm an idiot!"
"The guy next door, Clark, even demonstrated it to me, and I'm still here on Earth absorbing sunlight filtered through the atmosphere!"
"Going directly to space to absorb unfiltered sunlight, I would have refilled my energy long ago!"
Qi Jun nearly slapped himself.
"Indeed!"
"Knowledge is truly the primary productive force!"
"It seems I need to find time to copy some of that expert knowledge from professors!"
"I refuse to believe that with professional knowledge, I'd still be foolishly trying things step by step!"
Qi Jun was furious.
With a wave, he recalled all the mirrors he had materialized!
Yes, he recalled them!
This was a function Qi Jun discovered only after he had materialized many mirrors.
Energy used to materialize is also energy recollected; in this respect, the [Mutated Stone] did not short Qi Jun of his power.
Even though recalling 65 mirrors only reclaimed 65 points, every little bit helps.
Especially since Qi Jun struggled to scrape together five energy points just a day ago!
Frugality is a fine tradition in the Chinese nation, and Qi Jun wouldn't waste resources if he could reclaim them!
Having recalled all the mirrors, Qi Jun's energy absorption rate plummeted from 132 points per minute to just 2 points.
It was uncomfortable!
But Qi Jun only immediately headed to space.
Compared to the dark and lonely silence of space where no sound can propagate, at least for now, the sunset before him was worth savoring, wasn't it?
Just when he felt a bit choked up, this beautiful scene he had never seen before the crossing washed away his gloomy mood.
.............
Boom~~~
Another sonic boom echoed.
Qi Jun's body shuddered.
It was a sonic boom!
He hadn't misheard earlier; a sonic boom woke him up!
Qi Jun turned cautiously towards the source of the sound.
However, with just one look, Qi Jun was slightly stunned.
"Why is this guy here?"
A big question mark popped up in Qi Jun's mind.
"Eh?"
"That's not right!"
"Why is he heading towards me?"
With his enhanced vision, Qi Jun saw the figure flying towards him from a distance!
"Wait!"
"I'm not wearing a mask!"
"Oh no, this is bad, I've been exposed!"
Before Qi Jun could react, the figure made a beautiful stop in mid-air and gently landed on the sandy ground before Qi Jun, sinking both feet into the sand with a thud.
"Hey~"
"Kid, have you been kidnapped?"
"Do you need a ride on the Iron Man shuttle back home?"
With a click, the newcomer's helmet flipped open, revealing a face that left Qi Jun with mixed emotions. The figure raised an eyebrow and asked playfully.
"Hey!"
"The lucky guy who just immigrated to the United States of America?"
"The great Iron Man is speaking to you!"
"Do you need a ride on the Iron Man shuttle back home?"
Qi Jun didn't respond; he just gazed at the well-known face of Tony Stark in the Marvel Universe, his expression complex.
