Chapter 406: Power Gem (Second Update)
Chapter 406: Power Gem (Second Update)
"Respected Mr. Carmen, you are our Karukaru Group's top-tier platinum client and are entitled to a 30% discount on all our group's properties!"
The beautiful receptionist turned to Jerry, her attitude becoming even more enthusiastic.
The few Aliens who were checking in next to Jerry also looked at him with surprise when they heard the receptionist address Jerry as a platinum client.
Being a platinum client of the Karukaru Group was no small feat; it required a minimum of thirty billion in transactions with the group to earn this distinction.
The guests staying at the Gelili Grand Hotel were indeed wealthy or influential, with most having a net worth of at least ten million. However, those with a net worth of over a billion, let alone thirty billion, were truly rare.
Moreover, being able to conduct transactions worth over thirty billion with the Karukaru Group meant that their net worth was far more than just thirty billion.
Especially considering Jerry looked to be around twenty years old, which made it even more astonishing.
This was different from being a second-generation rich person; the Karukaru Group's platinum client status was strictly for individuals who had conducted at least thirty billion in transactions with the group.
"Alright!"
Jerry was taken aback for a moment before realizing that this hotel and the appraisal and recovery shop where he had sold the Dark Elf weapons were part of the same group.
It seemed that the Karukaru Group was indeed quite influential in the New Star Empire.
After checking in, Jerry was led to his ultra-luxury suite by a beautiful and alluring alien waitress.
The moment he entered the room, he didn’t bother to experience the various high-tech amenities but immediately activated the Mirror Spatial and leaped into the ring world.
"The Cosmic Sphere actually managed to completely conceal the Power Gem's fluctuations!"
Picking up the Cosmic Sphere he had placed in the ring's Spatial, Jerry couldn’t help but marvel.
If he hadn’t personally obtained the Cosmic Sphere, he might not have even noticed the Power Gem inside it if it had rolled past him.
It was clear that the technology used to create the Cosmic Sphere was indeed impressive.
"Alohomora!"
Jerry threw an Alohomora at the Cosmic Sphere. Under the unreasonable effects of the Alohomora spell, the Cosmic Sphere immediately emitted a series of "clicking" mechanical sounds in Jerry’s hand.
Moments later, the Cosmic Sphere split into two halves, revealing a purple gemstone in the center, radiating immense power.
It was the Power Gem, one of the six Infinity Stones, known for its raw and destructive energy.
The Power Gem was the stone with the most energy among the six Infinity Stones. It had no fancy or complex functions; it was simply a force of pure power, capable of releasing powerful energy waves for both attack and defense.
If one could perfectly control the Power Gem, it could even destroy a planet with a single strike.
Additionally, it could provide energy to the other Infinity Stones, enhancing their functions.
However, the energy within the Power Gem was so violent that, unless the user was powerful enough, even touching it would result in being shattered by its energy.
With Jerry’s current physical condition, he might be able to touch the Power Gem, but he doubted he could withstand it for long, let alone harness its full power.
Therefore, he felt that as a Mage, it would be more worthwhile to study the cosmic laws contained within the Power Gem, much like he had done with the Reality Gem.
Always relying on external objects without improving one's own strength will eventually turn one into a waste of space.
No matter how powerful one is, if one's own strength is not sufficient, even having all six Infinity Stones in hand will not allow one to harness their power.
"Analyze!"
Jerry placed the Cosmic Sphere containing the Power Gem on the table, then waved his hand, enveloping the Cosmic Sphere in a series of Magic arrays.
The Analyzing Array was a special Magic array he created by combining Magic from several worlds, specifically to assist him in understanding the principles of Magic.
"It's somewhat similar to the Force Card's principle, but it seems much more profound!"
In the evening, Jerry stopped his study of the Cosmic Sphere, closing it and restoring it to its original state.
After a long day of analysis, he discovered that the principle of the Power Gem shared many similarities with the "Force" Clow Card he had previously analyzed.
The principle of the Force Card is to temporarily convert Magic power into physical power, significantly enhancing one's physical strength.
The Power Gem, on the other hand, can gather immense energy and seems to contain all physical laws of the universe. Enhancing physical strength is just one of its many capabilities.
If he could analyze it well, it might allow him to make a significant breakthrough in "Force" Magic.
However, this would also require time and patience.
Analyzing the Reality Gem had greatly improved his transfiguration skills, breaking the limitations of Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration and allowing him to create objects out of thin air.
Analyzing the Power Gem might later lead to breakthroughs in Force Magic, and in the future, a single "Force" Magic, combined with the combat abilities of the "Fight" Card, could allow him to pin Thanos down and pummel him.
Besides the Reality Gem and the Power Gem, there are also the Spatial, Mind, Soul, and Time Gems in the universe.
If his strength becomes powerful enough in the future, Jerry believes he might collect all four of these gems, just like Thanos.
However, he would not do it to snap his fingers and eliminate half of the universe's life, but to study the cosmic laws they possess and make his Magic even more powerful.
Putting the Cosmic Sphere away, he flashed out of the ring world and returned to the luxurious hotel room.
However, he did not indulge in the room's advanced high-tech services. Instead, he opened his Panel.
Each entry into a Mini World has a one-month cooldown period. To test his hypothesis, he decided to use the ample red stars he had and make an early trip.
Selecting the Magic Card World, Jerry clicked the enter button without hesitation.
A Spatial fluctuation, and he found himself back in the Magic House in Tomobiki Town.
Estimating the distance, he cast another spell and drew a transfiguration array in the Magic House, leading to New York. He stepped into it.
Three days later, in the room of the Marvel Main World, after a Spatial fluctuation, Jerry sighed and opened his eyes again:
"It seems that there are no Marvel-related movies or comics in the Magic Card World. I can only hope the remaining two Mini Worlds, or future new Mini Worlds, have them!"
