Capítulo 159: MD-Chapter 158 Acquired!
In the lower level rest area of the spaceship!
Peter, with a flushed face and reeking of alcohol, his eyes barely able to focus, was still holding his glass and shouting, "I tell you, one day the name Peter Quill aka Star-Lord will echo throughout the galaxy!!!".
Arthur, however, found that he couldn't get drunk no matter what, so he just smiled and nodded, "Yeah, you will."
"Hmm... too bad you won't be here to see it."
Peter shook his head and let out a long sigh, "I actually miss that place a lot. But I'll never go back. Some things are just too hard to face. My mother died when I was only eight... she wanted to hold my hand, but I didn't dare give it to her. I thought that if she couldn't hold my hand, she would never... never... But she left me anyway."
With his head tilted back, leaning on the chair, two tears fell from the corners of Peter's eyes. But suddenly he looked up at Arthur, "You're lonely, I can see it."
"Hmm?"
Arthur took a sip of his drink and looked at Peter in surprise.
"You're lonely..." Peter tilted his head and stared at the floor, "I don't know when you'll really find happiness. I think maybe you're missing a woman. Is there a woman on earth that you're looking forward to?"
"...I don't know."
Arthur shook his head, "I don't know if it's something to look forward to."
"You really are a weirdo." Peter laughed heartily and raised his glass, "To the weird you, my brother... cheers!"
"Yeah, cheers."
Arthur smiled and clinked glasses with Peter, but before he could finish his drink, Peter was completely drunk and slumped on the table.
Seeing Peter slumped in the chair, completely out of it, Arthur blinked, then picked him up and placed him on the bed.
Quietly, he cleaned up the mess on the table, the unfinished food, and the garbage on the floor.
Then he carefully wiped the table and the floor.
After making a full circle in the rest area, he lifted the carpet and checked an array diagram imprinted on the Spaceship.
He smiled slightly, "Just in case."
Then, he found the spray painting tools, summoned the Abomination, and the two of them, one big and one small, began to work together.
After a whole night of work, the repainting of the spaceship was finally finished.
The new paint was orange, which, combined with the overall design of the spaceship, gave it a high-tech look.
Arthur smiled and said to himself, "As for replacing the core computer, that's up to you. Goodbye, my friend. Farewells are always bitter, so I'll spare you the goodbye..."
He turned around and added after a moment of reflection, "But there will definitely be another goodbye... right?"
He exhaled softly, retreated the Abomination, and approached the pitch-black spaceship.
In a flash, he appeared directly in the cockpit.
He started the Spaceship and the flames sprayed steadily as the ship jumped into space and soared upwards!
The ship on the ground became smaller and smaller. Arthur looked back once, then turned around and pushed the engines to their maximum capacity...
In the cockpit of the ground Spaceship, Peter held his glass with a faint smile on his lips, watching the black dot getting smaller and smaller. He lifted his glass before speaking, "Good luck…"

Abandoned Planet Morag!
The black spaceship landed on the planet. As soon as the engine stopped and before the hatch opened, a figure wearing a black mask, a wide-brimmed hat, and a black trench coat appeared beside the ship.
"What a nice place."
He looked around and made a startling comment.
The planet had long since been abandoned. The surface was chaotic, with jagged rocks and alternating jets of water and fire. Even the drops of water that fell on him were warm.
"If I come back here in the future, I could at least find a place to bathe in a hot spring."
Arthur looked at the gray sky, then released the Abomination, climbed onto his shoulder, and the large figure leaped into the air!
This planet had appeared at the beginning of *Guardians of the Galaxy*, and it had something very important… The Orb! But that was just a decoy; the real secret was that inside The Orb was the Power Stone!
There are six Infinity Stones in the universe, each controlling a different aspect of force: Power, Space, Time, Soul, Reality, and Mind, granting the user unimaginable power.
The reason Thanos could snap his fingers and wipe out half of the universe was that he had collected all six stones and set them into the Infinity Gauntlet, thereby wielding the ultimate power in the universe!
Arthur's sole purpose for this trip was to find the Power Stone.
As long as he got his hands on it, he could thwart Thanos' ambition to collect all six stones. Even if Thanos did show up in the future, he wouldn't have to worry about his finger snap!
The sunset finger snap would be directly nullified!
"This is much more interesting than fighting him with a rifle and energy weapons."
Arthur, looking down from above, directed the Abomination to leap through the air while searching based on the clues from the movie.
The process was not as complicated as he imagined, but it wasn't simple either.
In the movie, Peter seemed to find the Stone quickly, but Arthur took a full three days before finally locating the crumbling building.
On the silent planet, there were no obstructions. Besides the occasional small animals moving around, Arthur encountered no one and reached the Power Stone's storage site.
It was a silver metal sphere, etched with intricate patterns. After carefully observing it for a while, Arthur took out a device and placed it on the ground.
He had only seen Peter use this device in the movie, but during their adventures together, Peter had also gotten him one.
Once placed on the ground, a powerful magnetic force emanated from it. The Orb, originally within a laser barrier, was suddenly attracted with immense force, struggling to break free. Eventually, it shot through the barrier and landed on the device with a whoosh sound.
Turning off the device, Arthur held the Orb in his hands, momentarily unable to believe it. "Has the will of the universe forgotten me? I thought something bad would definitely happen once I got this."
He quickly covered his mouth after speaking.
His experiences had taught him that good things rarely happened, but bad things always did…
He listened carefully, then released The Eye of Horus to check the surrounding area repeatedly, finally confirming, "Nothing happened at all!? The Power Stone is really in my hands? This couldn't be fake, could it?"
He examined the Orb closely. Aside from seeing it in the movie, he hadn't seen it anywhere else. Even if he squinted hard, he couldn't discern any differences.
With a thought, he tried to store it in the Disassembler space, and the stone… disappeared from his hands.
"Emmmmm… It should be real, I guess!"
Arthur's face was filled with uncertainty as he looked at this scene.

Capítulo 160: MD-Chapter 159 The Lonely Journey
The Tesseract, possessing spatial powers, cannot be stored in the Disassemble Space.
The Power Stone, which embodies the aspect of Power, can indeed be stored in the Disassemble Space…
This seems fine, but Arthur clearly lacks a way to verify the authenticity of the item.
The Disassembler is currently upgrading; otherwise, he could have tried to Disassemble it.
If it couldn't be Disassembled, that would prove there is a high chance that the Orb he has acquired is real.
Though there are other possibilities, at this stage, Arthur could only stare at The Orb, sighing, "Well, I'll deal with this later!"
After leaving the abandoned building, Arthur also tried searching around to see if he could find anything valuable. As a Raider, it's basic professional ethics to make the most of every opportunity.
However, the results left Arthur extremely disappointed; this place was indeed a barren wasteland!
Moreover, just like when he arrived, there were still no dangers, which felt a bit unusual to Arthur.
"This process is too smooth, isn't it?"
Even after reaching the Spaceship's cockpit and launching into space, Arthur couldn't quite believe it: "Has the bad luck that's been dogging like an unscratchable itch finally left?"
Despite feeling a strange urge to be cheerful, he still didn't let his guard down, worried that powerful enemies might be lurking in the universe.
Yet, the space was empty, and despite his cautious mindset, Arthur found no enemies after crossing over the Jump Point and entering a new part of the universe.
"Strangely, I'm a bit disappointed."
Arthur blinked and then grimaced: "Am I being ungrateful? Isn't no danger a good thing?"
By now, he had completely relaxed his guard. After switching from manual to automatic driving, he took out The Orb and began to fiddle with it.
He tried to open it, but no matter how he twisted it, it wouldn't budge.
He then attempted to use The Eye of Horus to examine the internal structure. However, as soon as The Eye of Horus integrated with the interior, it… disappeared!
"Disappeared? Really?"
Arthur's eyes widened, and after various attempts and explorations, he ultimately gave up.
Neither force nor clever tricks would open the sphere.
Perhaps there would be a method in the future, but for now, he was at a loss with this item.
"Well, it's better this way; at least the chance of it being a genuine Power Stone has increased."
Arthur blinked slowly, then stored the Orb back in the Disassembler Space and gazed absentmindedly at the current cosmic vista.
What awaited him next was a long six-month journey. What should he do?
Peter had prepared quite well for him, with ample fuel, plenty of food, and some books and comics.
However, with his fast reading and memory skills, he finished all these little things within a week.
Following that, the next half-month was excruciatingly dull. He wandered around the rest area daily and grew increasingly agitated.
"Indeed, long journeys make one restless!"
Arthur pinched his brow while trying to calm his mindset.
He decided to find something to do.
Initially, he intended to continue his research on genetics, but aside from calculations, there was nothing much he could do.
In the end, he focused on his colorless energy.
Arthur began experimenting with his colorless energy, not using The Eye of Horus's method or energy-based combat techniques but simply applying his own approach.
"First step, spread the colorless energy across my palm! And, without any steel or iron!"
Arthur sat inside the spaceship, talking to himself: "According to the fist manual, with focused attention, one can mobilize their own energy. I'll give it a try…"
He focused on his palm for another half month.
Aside from refueling the spaceship, he spent the entire time staring at his palm, behaving like a severe hand fetishist. Although he wasn't sure if such a fetish really existed, Arthur felt like he was turning into a weirdo!
However, once this became almost a habit, Arthur discovered that he had indeed managed to channel the colorless energy and cover his palm with it.
His whole hand glowed with a bright white light!
"Hm… Am I turning into a white-handed character now?"
He took out the double-handed sword from the Disassemble space and mused: "The clothes don't match."
After about ten minutes of excitement, Arthur found that this energy manipulation seemed to open a door to a new world.
Once he managed it the first time, doing it a second time became much easier.
Though it didn't seem very powerful, when he unconsciously pressed his glowing hand on the table and nearly ripped the welding-fixed table off the ground, he thought of new applications.
He noticed that when he focused his intent, this power had a fascinating stickiness to it.
This reminded him of some interesting things, and he tried applying this power to his feet.
When his feet began to glow with the same white light, he took the first step toward the wall…
The experiment was incredibly successful. Arthur discovered that as long as he wanted, he could stand anywhere!
Whether it was on a 90-degree wall or the ceiling, he could "stick" himself to any surface.
This reminded him of the chakra training in *Naruto*!
He then lay on the ceiling, flailed his arms around, and shouted, "Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet!"
Naturally, nothing happened, but Arthur was delighted: "The feeling of returning to my teenage self is great!"
However, this game didn't entertain him for long, and soon Arthur found himself bored again.
Boredom led him to consider pushing his limits. He tried wrapping himself in colorless energy and stepping out of the spaceship to face the vacuum of space.
The result was that the vacuum, being all-pervasive, penetrated his "defense" directly.
Later, he realized that this method was quite rudimentary. In contrast, having steel-like bones allowed him to maintain vitality in space with his own strength.
After being exposed to the vacuum, he was astonished to find that brief contact with the vacuum didn't kill him.
"My body has become this powerful?"
Arthur wasn't sure if he should be proud of this. It seemed he was gradually transcending the human realm and stepping into a higher level.
