His rationality told him not to do it.
But emotionally, he remained somewhat uneasy.
Although Osborn Group might not be conducting any human experiments yet, there's no guarantee they wouldn't do so in the future.
And...
What if they were already doing it?
As someone who had experienced human experimentation, Luke Cage knew that pain very well.
However, he had only just managed to live a peaceful life.
He truly didn't want to break that peace!
....
Just past midnight, Luo Di, who had already returned home early, opened the system interface.
"Come on, system! Start today's sign-in!"
Luo Di had a premonition that he would have a change of luck today.
Although for the past few days, he seemed to have had such a premonition every day, the result—
But that didn't matter!
Luo Di firmly believed that he would definitely have a change of luck.
And it was highly likely to be today.
"Ding~!"
"Congratulations, Host, for signing in and acquiring the Energy Absorption ability, from the Mutant Sebastian Shaw!"
Yes~!
I knew it!!
Luo Di's eyes sparkled with excitement.
When he heard the system say the ability came from Sebastian Shaw, Luo Di knew he truly had a change of luck today!
Before this, even Luo Di himself wasn't sure if he could have a change of luck.
Although he spoke very firmly, in reality, it was more of a sense of ritual.
But as the saying goes, 'what you dwell on will eventually manifest'!
Indeed;
Luo Di truly had a change of luck today.
And right off the bat, it was a trump card!
Black King Shaw's Energy Absorption ability, this ability is notoriously powerful!
In X-Men: First Class, the original X-Men had to unite to defeat Shaw.
And even then, there was an element of luck involved.
You should know, Shaw's ability allows him to absorb all energy, including but not limited to kinetic energy, electrical energy, magic energy, and so on!
In other words;
Theoretically, all attacks are ineffective against Shaw.
Not only do they not harm him, but they also provide him with energy, allowing him to turn it back on you!
This is precisely Black King Shaw's strength.
He can not only absorb energy but also release the absorbed energy.
At the same time, he can also use the absorbed energy to enhance his stamina, speed, and strength.
He can even reverse his age and restore his youth!
Therefore, theoretically, as long as Shaw continuously absorbs energy, he can live forever!!!
Of course!
Even a powerful being like Black King Shaw is not without weaknesses.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been defeated by the original X-Men.
Black King Shaw's ability has three most obvious weaknesses.
The first weakness is mental control abilities!
Black King Shaw's ability cannot absorb mental attacks, so if he doesn't wear an anti-mind control helmet, he will be controlled instantly by a psychic like Professor X.
His second weakness is that there is an upper limit to his Energy Absorption!
And once that limit is exceeded, it will cause extremely severe damage to him.
It could even cost him his life!
And the third weakness is that without Energy Absorption, Shaw is merely a relatively strong Ordinary people, so he can still die from various dangers that can kill Ordinary people.
This includes but is not limited to suffocation, poisoning, drowning, and so on!
Most Mutant abilities have various weaknesses; perfect abilities are not non-existent, but they are limited to a very few exceptions.
Clearly;
Black King Shaw is not one of them.
But even with these weaknesses, it still cannot conceal the fact that Black King Shaw's ability is extremely powerful!
What's more, Luo Di is not Sebastian Shaw; he doesn't just have the Energy Absorption ability.
He also possesses other different abilities.
What can kill Shaw may not necessarily kill Luo Di!
Although Luo Di currently has no solution for mind control abilities, for example.
But his future self will definitely be able to do so.
And...
This is not the Universe where the X-Men are; there is no second Mutant besides Luo Di here.
Mind control abilities or treasures are not non-existent, but they are extremely rare.
At least Luo Di won't encounter them at this stage.
Not to mention encountering a psychic like Professor X, who can control you from thousands of miles away.
....
PS: The tenth update is here!!!
Ten updates, please give some support, I'm so tired! My back is so sore!!
Chapter 26: Thousand-fold Enhancement! Invincible? [Seeking Fresh Flowers]
Bang!
In the living room, Red Devil, whose clothes had turned into a crocodile suit, was teleporting back and forth, trying to bite his long tail dragging behind him.
Luo Di sat on the sofa, ignoring the silly dog's antics.
"System, bestow the Energy Absorption ability upon this tube of potion in my hand, remember it's the liquid inside, not the syringe!"
Luo Di held a syringe in his hand, and inside the syringe was a White liquid.
That was saline solution, safe to inject, non-toxic and harmless.
And as Luo Di's command was issued.
A faint red light flashed in his palm, disappearing into the syringe.
Subsequently;
The saline solution in the syringe visibly turned light red.
It looked like diluted blood!
"System, what's the compatibility between my silly dog and this potion?"
Luo Di asked.
"70%!"
The system gave the answer.
"Only seventy? A bit low!"
Luo Di shook his head; a 30% collapse rate was too high.
Although Luo Di sometimes found this silly dog annoying, he didn't want it to kick the bucket like that.
So, he decided against it.
He would consider injecting it next time he found something with higher compatibility.
With that thought, Luo Di placed the syringe into a box, then stored it in his interdimensional space, even assigning it a separate area to prevent it from being damaged by things placed there later.
"Ding~!"
"Successfully bestowed Sebastian Shaw's Energy Absorption ability upon the target item. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a thousand-fold enhanced Energy Absorption ability!"
"How much?"
Luo Di stood up excitedly.
"A thousand-fold? System, are you sure?!"
The system remained silent.
But it was okay, because Luo Di hadn't truly misheard.
He was just a little too excited.
After all...
This was an ability from Black King Shaw!
And it even randomly got a thousand-fold enhancement?!
Is this change of luck really that incredible?
Will I become very unlucky for a while now?
Luo Di couldn't help but let his thoughts wander.
However, even if it meant sacrificing his luck for a while, Luo Di was willing.
Black King Shaw's ability was already very powerful.
Now it was enhanced a thousand-fold!
How terrifying would that be?
Luo Di himself couldn't imagine what a thousand-fold enhanced Energy Absorption ability would be like.
Involuntarily, Luo Di looked at the system interface.
He wanted to reconfirm if it was truly a thousand-fold enhancement.
Lest he had really misheard.
