After absorbing the results from Disassembling the five sets of armor, Arthur felt like he had just been pulled out of hot water, and he felt how a shrimp would feel.
The primary reason for this sensation came from the Five Faint Golden Ancient Battle Souls! They were astonishingly powerful, almost frighteningly so.
Although their enhancement to his strength wasn't as impressive as Hulk's pants, each time Arthur used them, he felt as if he had been thrown into molten lava and then got rolled around in it.
It was an intense heat that seemed to radiate from the inside out, and whenever Arthur was on the verge of not being able to endure it, the sensation would recede like a tidal wave.
Once the sensation passed, Arthur had a vague sense that the true effect of these Battle Souls was not so much the enhancement of strength but rather an increase in physical durability and possibly endurance.
Of course, this was just Arthur's feeling without further evidence to back it up.
With a thought, Arthur began to Disassemble the stone slab that recorded mysterious knowledge upon it.
He then turned his attention to the three shards of crystal.
Though Arthur had labeled them as crystals, they appeared to be nothing more than lumps of coal. They were black as ink and looked quite unremarkable to the eye.
They were irregular in shape, they seemed like trash you wouldn't even give a second glance if you saw them lying on the ground.
But they were genuine Purple Quality Items...
"So, you never know what you're dealing with until you actually check it out!"
Arthur nodded silently and focused on the stone slab.
The Marvel Universe is home to many wondrous races.
In addition to the various 'monsters' on this ship, there are various Gods and Demons, beings like Thanos, and Sorcerers like Dormammu from Doctor Strange...
In summary, the universe is vast, and countless powerful entities exist in this vast Universe.
So discovering a stone slab recording mysterious knowledge here didn't surprise Arthur.
What did surprise him was that this item was of Purple Quality, making him incredibly excited about what he might get from the subsequent Disassemble.
About five minutes later, the Disassembler's notification appeared as expected.
[Disassemble item complete!]
[Mysterious Knowledge (Teleportation Circle) *3!]
[Disassembler Experience +3]
Arthur blinked several times, and his breathing suddenly became rapid.
Teleportation Circles???
Teleportation Circles!!!!!
He jumped up in excitement, even forgetting to extract the items!
"If I have Teleportation Circles, can I set up something like Bifrost and fly directly from here to Earth?"
Arthur's mind raced at full speed.
But soon, he doused himself with a cold dose of reality: "That's impossible. Even in Asgard, Bifrost is heavily guarded. Am I really expected to master such an ability just from the knowledge extracted from a stone slab? That seems a bit far-fetched. Although Bifrost and Teleportation Circles are not the same thing…"
Taking a deep breath, Arthur chose to extract the items.
Three books appeared in his hand. He bit his teeth lightly, and with three consecutive sounds, the three books vanished.
It was as if the fog shrouding his mind had instantly lifted as a wealth of knowledge about Teleportation Circles immediately filled Arthur's mind.
After mastering all of this, Arthur's expression turned somewhat defeated.
"It's indeed not as simple as I imagined…"
Arthur sighed lightly, but since he had already tempered his expectations, he wasn't completely disheartened.
"Creating a Teleportation Circle requires specific items. At the very least, you need to draw a magic diagram and input energy."
He organized his thoughts: "Moreover, a Teleportation Circle is bidirectional. You can't teleport anywhere with just one side of the circle. Two Teleportation Circles need to be connected to activate the system. The number of uses depends on the materials used and their ability to store energy. If the materials are poor and cause energy loss, the circle might fail prematurely…"
Arthur sighed deeply: "For Teleportation Circles based on distance, neither my current abilities nor my understanding are sufficient for interstellar teleportation. And Earth doesn't have any Teleportation Circles…"
After feeling a bit down, Arthur quickly picked himself up: "But it's okay. Just because I can't use it now doesn't mean I won't be able to in the future. Once I return to Earth, I'll draw Teleportation Circles everywhere… And if I can advance my teleportation skills, perhaps I'll achieve even better results."
After comforting himself, Arthur felt rejuvenated.
He allowed himself to be disappointed for a moment but didn't permit himself to remain in that state for long.
Then he turned his attention to the last three crystals…
The fact was that even among the Purple Quality Items, there were different focuses.
For example, these three crystals didn't provide Arthur with any skill books but brought him a total of 275 Colorless crystals!
Of course, they also provided 15 Disassembler experience points.
Arthur stared blankly at the colorless crystals.
With so many, how long would it take to absorb them all?
That day, everyone who passed by Arthur's room couldn't help but eavesdrop, faintly hearing strange clapping sounds.
It led people to suspect that there might be a woman hiding in Arthur's room.
When Arthur eventually learned of this, he had no way to explain himself and his situation.
If he told them there was no woman in the room, would they start speculating about even stranger things?
Arthur had no trust in these people's decency!
After Disassembling the series of purple items, Arthur temporarily set aside the green and lower-quality weapon items.
At this stage, he wasn't willing to go to any lengths just to increase his power.
After all, he had already controlled Abomination, further improved his steel body, mastered Asgard Military Combat Techniques, collected five Battle Souls, and amassed a vast number of colorless crystals.
His strength had increased significantly, and the surging colorless energy within him made Arthur confident. He felt that fighting Yondu would be much easier now.
His intuition told him that once Peter Quill's plan succeeded, future adventures would likely reveal more valuable items worth Disassembling.
The universe was vast and full of mysteries and ancient treasures, representing countless opportunities for Arthur.
If this departure hadn't been so sudden,
Given a little time to prepare, pack his bags, and plan his journey, he would have enthusiastically stepped into the universe.
"Speaking of travel plans… Shouldn't I make one for myself too?"
Arthur rubbed his nose: "In the original story, the Power Stone was on a planet called Morag, right?"
