Capítulo 3: Ch-3 Mr. Paradox
In just a moment, the mechanical voice sounded again.
Mutation completed!
[Mechanical Furnace (Blue-Purple) Transforms into [Heart of the Furnace (Mutation) ]
Russell had a blank expression on his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw from the corner of his eye that the TVA Minutemen's around him did not react.
It seems that this system sound can only be heard by himself.
He couldn't help but feel excited.
After awakening system, in the Marvel world, the probability of survival is greatly increased.
Even becoming stronger is not a dream!
Perhaps this is the reward for not being content with mediocrity.
Russell forced himself to suppress his excitement, remained silent, kept his pace, and stepped into the portal while maintaining his composure.
What comes into view is a huge corridor, which is taller than what you see in movies and TV shows, and the walls have a retro style of the last century.
There were many agents in white shirts coming and going, as well as some time guards.
It looks busy here.
Russell pretended to be curious and looked around, but in his heart he was thinking about the three items he had just plundered.
[ Extremis Virus ] omes from Killian's entry.
It has powerful self-healing abilities, enhanced strength, and no fatal organs.
There is also high temperature control, up to 1800.
At the same time, it also gets rid of weaknesses, and will not be irritable, manic, crazy, or explode uncontrollably!
Russell was delighted. This entry would undoubtedly increase his chances of surviving in the void and give him a certain ability to protect himself!
And that's just the green.
The rarity of the entries is white, cyan, green, purple, gold, and red.
He continued to look at [ Curse of Knowledge ] and this entry was purple.
In an instant, the entry information appeared in his mind.
[Curse of Knowledge] talent type entry.
'You have a strong ability to understand and learn knowledge, both on the technological and mysterious sides, and have a certain degree of creativity.'
Russell was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Iron Man's entry would also work on the mysterious side.
Doesn't this mean that I will have powerful magical talents?
Although it has little combat effectiveness for the time being, in the long run, the benefits brought by this entry will be unimaginable No wonder it can be classified as purple.
Russell then looked at the last entry.
[Heart of the Furnace] this is the only variant entry.
Its ability is to transform the heart into an energy core that can continuously absorb free radiation atoms in the air to react and burst out powerful life force.
And it continues, subtly transforming the flesh and blood body to become more powerful!
Even amplifies the power of the Extremis virus.
And it's not over yet!!!
This variant entry has another ability!
Furnace overload!
When activated, it could use the blood in the body as fuel, turning it into pure energy. It could launch energy beam attacks, empower the body, and cast spells (if you knew any).
The ratio was one hundred milligrams of blood to ten units of energy (for example, Doctor Strange's Vishanti spells, with each unit allowing ten casts).
Once activated, however, it wouldn't stop until four-tenths of the body's blood had been consumed.
Since the human body has about 5,500 ml of blood, four-tenths would be almost 2,200 ml. An ordinary person would go into shock. Even with strong vitality, the user would become extremely weak.
Simply put, this was an explosive ability that Russell wouldn't use unless absolutely necessary - it was a trump card.
All in all, Russell felt that this mutated entry was no weaker than the purple Curse of Knowledge, and might even be better. What a surprise!
After a silent celebration, Russell loaded the three entries without hesitation. There was no progress bar; the energy loaded instantly.
At that instant, he could clearly feel the changes in his body - the power surged through his blood, the world seemed clearer, and his brain reacted faster.
The time collars of the TVA might ban magic, but they didn't limit physical fitness. All he had to do was use a little strength to overpower the TVA soldiers escorting him!
However, Russell didn't act rashly or assume he was invincible. There were many powerful time offenders in the Void Land, and the TVA power displayed in Loki Series was probably only a fraction of their full power.
Besides, the time collar was very dangerous, and there was no way to remove it unless one could grab the controller directly.
Russell memorized the route and other information along the way. After taking an elevator down 25 floors, he arrived at the door of an enclosed room. The door was dark with no glass, so he couldn't see what was inside.
He frowned slightly. He remembered that in the Loki series, the process after Loki was caught was different.
First, his clothes were changed, then the verdict was read by the examiner, and finally he was sentenced by a female judge.
But that didn't happen to him this time. Was this set in the time before Loki became a god? Judging by the mural in the hallway, the Minutemen's were still around, so it hadn't happened yet.
Just then, a minutemen opened the door, pushed Russell inside, and slammed it shut.
"Hello, sir, please sit here."
A soft voice called out. Russell looked up to see a simple table in the middle of the room, which was about two or three hundred square feet. There was only what looked like a toaster on the table.
A man in a black suit with a gray tie and gray hair sat to the left and gestured with his right hand for Russell to sit down.
'Mr. Paradox?'
Russell recognized the man. He hadn't expected Mr. Paradox to be in charge. It seemed that Professor X's evil twin sister hadn't been captured after the second season.
Russell looked around cautiously, then carefully sat down across from Mr. Paradox.
"You are...?" he asked cautiously.
Mr. Paradox smiled slightly and said in a calm tone, "Don't worry, sir. We, the Time Variance Authority, are not an evil organization. We are here to protect the peace of the Sacred Timeline. In other words, we are actually the good guys."
As he said this, he snapped his fingers, and a hole suddenly appeared in the bread machine-like device on the table. The origin and history of TVA was projected onto the wall, not much different from what Russell had seen in *Loki*.
When the projection ended, Mr. Paradox smiled and said, "This is TVA, so don't think we're out to get you. As long as you tell us where you're from, we'll check you out and send you back to your own timeline-provided you don't intentionally interfere with it."
'Send me into the void...' Russell scoffed inwardly.
He knew what kind of man Mr. Paradox was. Without the system and the power he now had, his only options would have been exile or total destruction. But things were different now.
When a Time Criminal is on the run, there are more opportunities to plunder entries and be free! Also, within the TVA, you have to worry about the conspiracies of those left behind.
Running away and becoming a Time Criminal was the only way out. But first he had to grab the TVA control panel and the controller around his neck.
Russell pretended to think and began pacing the edge of the table, getting closer to Mr. Paradox.
Mr. Paradox didn't stop him. He just picked up his coffee and sipped it slowly, his face in shadow, a meaningful smile on his lips.
At that moment, Russell lunged forward with incredible speed.
"Tsk, can't you hold it in?" Paradox said with a smile, pressing lightly with the finger he had in his pocket.
In an instant, Russell's body flashed back to where it had been five seconds earlier, sitting in the chair.
Confused but determined, Russell lunged at Mr. Paradox again, but he smiled and pressed the control just as Russell's palm was about to touch him.
Again, Russell flashed back to the chair.
But this time he couldn't move. He froze, his eyes filled with confusion and panic.
Mr. Paradox hit the pause button. Then he stood gracefully, looked down at Russell with an imperceptible air of superiority, and smiled.
"Ah, I guessed you wouldn't behave."
"I forgot to tell you, as long as you wear the time collar, your time is controlled by me."
"So just think about it for a while."
With that, Mr. Paradox put down his coffee and walked out leisurely.
At that moment, something had changed deep inside Russell's pupils.
The initial shock was gone, replaced by a deep calm, without even a trace of panic - as if everything had been expected.
