After a long while, the prompt in Jason's mind slowly faded.
Without wasting time, he opened all the gift packs awarded by the system.
First, he obtained hundreds of millions of attribute points. Additionally, he received a vast array of abilities—almost tens of thousands of them. These powers varied in strength, but concentrated in one person, they were enough to elevate him to godhood.
He immediately added the enormous amount of attribute points to each of his stats.
In an instant, he felt as if his soul was leaving his body. The mountains no longer looked like mountains to him, and the entire universe changed its appearance before his eyes.
Looking up, he saw the brilliant cosmic tapestry, the strange movements of countless stars and planets, and their complex interactions clearly displayed before him. From the vast galaxies to the smallest speck of dust, everything seemed stripped bare, leaving no secrets.
He closed his eyes, and when his soul opened them again, he understood the universe on a level he never had before.
And finally, within that trillion-point gift package, he discovered the ultimate prize—the Heart of the Universe.
The moment he received this reward, the six Infinity Stones around him suddenly flew upward and transformed from matter into pure energy. Six forces representing the origin of the universe surged into Jason's body simultaneously!
In that instant, his thoughts and consciousness reached the very edge of existence. Every molecule and atom in the universe now bore his mark.
He possessed unparalleled power. His words becoming reality was now among his most basic abilities!
Time, space, soul, mind... possessing the Heart of the Universe meant he officially controlled and owned everything. From this moment, the universe became his personal property!
As a result, he also mastered the method of traveling to other universes, and what he had promised to Thanos could now be fulfilled.
His consciousness scanned the entire universe, discovering many hidden secrets—the locations of the Celestials, the Symbiote Planet, Zeus and other cosmic beings...
However, as long as something existed within this universe, he could control it.
Likewise, he discovered the Phoenix Force's location, though he already knew the true Phoenix Force existed on a multiversal level. The one in this universe was merely a projection of the real cosmic entity.
In just moments, Jason had observed the entire universe. No power in this world could compare to him.
Adding the power of Hell and several God Domains, he had completely reached multiversal-tier power. Moreover, even among multiversal beings, he ranked extremely high.
Next, he planned to officially begin his conquest of the multiverse.
His main force would be Thanos's army. To ensure success, he also planned to upgrade these troops.
His consciousness descended directly onto the Symbiote Planet, where he established a training ground. All soldiers in Thanos's army could obtain their own symbiote armor through trials.
Additionally, Jason assigned research tasks to Shuri, Dr. Hank Pym, and other brilliant minds, allowing these geniuses to serve as logistics and technology officers for Thanos's forces.
As for others, including Deadpool, Captain America, Tony Stark, and the remaining Avengers, Jason kept them active in this universe. They would continue upholding justice and fighting crime.
Although Jason had eliminated all guilty people in the universe with a snap of his fingers, as everyone knows, sin never truly disappears. As long as life exists, sin will exist. Sinners will always emerge in an endless stream.
Jason planned to purify the world at regular intervals—perhaps every few decades or centuries.
...
A massive portal stood in the void.
Countless spaceships and warships entered and exited through its shimmering surface.
Hundreds of years had passed since Universe-1 began conquering other realities.
Now, the Universal Alliance prepared to launch an attack on [Universe-6].
According to preliminary reconnaissance, this was a very strange universe, completely different from the previous five they had conquered.
In the central office of the Universal Alliance, Jason sipped coffee leisurely. Thanos stood at attention before him.
"Master, according to our reconnaissance, this is an extremely unusual universe. The large-scale invasion method we used against Universe-5 may not be applicable here."
Jason lazily picked up the document from Thanos's hand, glanced through it, and nearly spat out his coffee.
He looked at Thanos in disbelief. "Are you certain this report is accurate?"
According to the documents, the first small portal leading to [Universe-6] had opened in Smallville, Kansas, USA.
The intelligence gathered indicated this world also had superheroes and supervillains. And the most famous hero recently was an alien being named Superman!
Jason read the entire document repeatedly.
Damn, what are the odds of opening a random portal to this place?
Thanos noticed his reaction and said, "Master, we don't fully understand this world yet. I've dispatched Skrull agents to conduct thorough reconnaissance before formulating our next strategy. Do you think—"
"Yes! You've planned well!" Jason nodded thoughtfully. "We really should be careful with this brand new universe. Actually, I'm quite interested in this place... why don't we go scouting together?"
Thanos was stunned. "We? Together?"
Jason nodded. "I have a feeling this universe may be more complex than it appears. There might be many fascinating heroes there—I really want to meet them!"
Thanos couldn't understand what his master was planning, but whatever Jason said was final!
Jason grew excited and decided to depart immediately. With a flash, he and Thanos arrived before the portal leading to [Universe-6].
Over the years, unless he was merging another universe with Universe-1, Jason had never personally visited an unconquered reality.
He had learned caution when conquering Universe-2, where he faced that universe's overlord, the Marquis of Death. The two had exchanged blows while standing in their respective universes, reaching a stalemate.
Unfortunately for his opponent, the Marquis had been too arrogant, daring to enter [Universe-1] directly. Thus, he became the first multiversal-tier master Jason had ever eliminated.
But now, after fusing five universes, defeating Dormammu, and occupying the Dark Dimension, Jason's power had grown immeasurably. In recent campaigns, he had even found the Phoenix Force's original form in the multiverse and successfully sealed it. Now, he drew power from the Phoenix Force continually.
There should be no danger in entering Universe-6. Besides, he was merely going for reconnaissance, not to conquer it personally.
Looking at the dark portal, he took a deep breath and said, "Let's go, Thanos!"
...
Gotham City, after rainfall.
The gloomy sky matched the city—lifeless and gray.
"Help! Robbery!"
A woman's scream suddenly pierced the quiet street.
"Ta-tata..."
The sound of running footsteps. A thin, sickly-looking man sprinted into an alley.
While running, he glanced back nervously.
"Whoosh..."
The sound of a cape cutting through the wind.
A figure dressed in black armor suddenly dropped from above, delivering a powerful punch to the man's chin.
The thief immediately collapsed unconscious.
But the armored figure didn't lower his guard. He stared at the two silhouettes in the depths of the alley and spoke in a dark, gravelly voice: "Who are you?"
Jason smiled, his eyes twinkling with excitement. "Hello, Mr. Wayne!"
