The Planet Beneath My Feet Is My Weapon
"What will the third template be?"
David's eyes burned with anticipation, a mix of nervousness and excitement.
[Loading third template...]
[Loading 3%... 20%...]
After a few seconds, amidst the surge of excitement, his head buzzed. David shook his head, and suddenly, a strange power emanated from his surroundings. He looked around, his gaze piercing the void.
Something he had never perceived before, something vast, formless, and omnipresent, opened its doors to him.
In a green wilderness filled with the incessant chirping of unknown insects and overgrown with wild grass.
David looked down at the ground, his fingers twitching slightly.
A few pebbles on the ground, as if grasped by an invisible force, floated upwards.
Whoosh!
David's eyes shifted.
The pebbles shot out, like sniper bullets, piercing a large tree dozens of meters away.
With another movement, the several-hundred-pound backpack on his back detached and fell to the ground.
"It's not just that..."
He closed his eyes, sensing it more clearly.
There was a boundless, vast, and infinite field covering the planet.
David felt like an ant that had suddenly touched an ocean, and the best part was that he could borrow and control the power of this ocean.
Buzz!
He suddenly opened his eyes. The flowing air seemed to be under immense pressure, and the air pressure abruptly increased.
Crack, crack, crack!
The wild grass swaying in the wind was instantly pressed flat to the ground. The insects let out mournful cries, and then their sounds vanished. The branches of the large tree began to emit sounds of unbearable strain, breaking and falling. An invisible force enveloped an area of several miles around him.
Whoosh!
At the same time, his feet left the ground. David's tall, slender body ascended as if he were a god entering heaven.
The pebbles on the ground floated up like a ring of stars orbiting a celestial body, rising with him. The sunlight cast a golden hue on his face, which was sculpted like a classical Greek statue, subtly adding a touch of divinity.
Amidst the clouds and sky.
David, having gained the ability to fly, opened his eyes in wonder. He looked down at the now-tiny wilderness below, a surge of exhilaration washing over him, a feeling of uninhibited freedom, as if the world was his to roam.
"To fly freely in the sky like a bird has always been humanity's dream since ancient times."
And now he had achieved it. He had conquered the sky, escaping the clutches of gravity.
"More accurately, I manipulated gravity!"
Clenching his fist, David felt as if he were gripping an invisible world with all his might, his eyes erupting with intense brilliance.
The capabilities of the new template were obvious: omnipresent, permeating every corner of the planet, yet often overlooked – gravity.
[Graviton template loading complete, 30% fused]
"Graviton?"
David raised an eyelid, searching his memory, and finally recalled who this person with a nickname similar to Magneto was.
He was very similar to Magneto. One primarily controlled magnetism, with a bit of electromagnetism, while the other primarily controlled gravity, with a bit of universal gravitation.
"Graviton's real name is Franklin Hall. He was originally a physicist who gained the ability to control gravity in an experimental accident involving a particle accelerator. He later became one of the Avengers' arch-rivals."
Information and background about Graviton flashed through his mind.
Both bearing the "Wan" (ten thousand/myriad) in their names, their strength was not inferior to Magneto's; in fact, under normal circumstances, it was even slightly stronger.
"He has defeated the Avengers multiple times, and even once defeated all of Earth's heroes, including the Hulk, Thor, and Scarlet Witch, in a single encounter.
The reasons for his failures were often due to his mental instability and poor decision-making, either giving up on his goals or being exploited by others."
It was a case of the software dragging down the hardware.
But he didn't have those weaknesses.
Familiarizing himself with his newly acquired abilities, David beckoned with his finger, and the backpack on the ground flew towards him.
Then, he reached out and pointed towards a mountain peak several miles away, about eight or nine hundred meters high.
Baa, baa!
At the foot of the mountain, an old shepherd, wearing a cross necklace and a white hat, was herding goats. He waved his whip, and the goats hopped between the rocks, nibbling on the grass.
Rumble!
Suddenly, the ground shook violently, rocks tumbled down, and the entire mountain began to tremble.
"An earthquake?"
The shepherd looked up at the mountain in utter shock.
The next second, he dropped his jaw in disbelief at a scene he would never forget.
It was as if an invisible giant hand had grabbed the peak, tearing away at the part where the mountain met the earth. The entire mountain was ripped from the ground and lifted into the air.
The flock bleated in terror and scattered.
The shepherd stood frozen in place, stunned beyond comprehension.
"God, what am I seeing?"
He rubbed his eyes, but the scene remained unchanged. The mountain peak was lifted and hovered dozens of meters above the ground.
"Is... is this real?" Struck as if by lightning, the shepherd's body stiffened. It was like witnessing a miracle. Gazing at the immense power, he felt as insignificant as an ant, constantly calling out to God and kneeling in prayer.
"That was a bit strenuous."
After a dozen seconds, David returned the mountain peak to its original position, controlling his gravity field, and looked at his palm.
The power to move mountains was almost the limit of his current control capabilities.
Immersed in his newly acquired powerful abilities, David was unaware that below, a shepherd saw the mountain return and mistook it for God playing a trick on him.
"To reshape lunar craters like Graviton does in the comics, or to casually lift islands and cities into the sky, I'll need a higher fusion degree."
But this also caused his strength to soar. Now, he could move mountains and split the earth with a wave of his hand, altering the terrain.
His face showed undisguised excitement as he compared his abilities internally.
The slight difference in name between Magneto and Graviton easily led to comparisons.
"Compared to Magneto's abilities, gravity is undoubtedly more versatile than magnetism, easily manipulating all things in the world, not just metal, and it's easier to control."
As for the ultimate potential of both abilities, as one of the four fundamental forces of the universe, electromagnetism is stronger than universal gravitation.
David believed that an unreachable upper limit was no different from having no limit at all.
"There are also some extended abilities related to gravity manipulation.
For example, bending light to see distant objects, perceiving things across oceans through gravity fields, eliminating gravity for all things, creating gravitational fields to attract all things to each other, creating gravitational shields, causing earthquakes, firing gravity beams..."
There were too many extended abilities, and some related to universal gravitation were still beyond his reach.
But the most basic point was that within the range of gravity, he could manipulate everything like a deity.
"The planet beneath my feet is my weapon!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of sonic booms erupted, like sound barrier clouds being pierced by white gaseous plates, continuously forming in the sky and lingering.
Manipulating and deflecting the Earth's gravitational influence, David's eyes shone as he familiarized himself with his newfound flight ability, breaking through the clouds and soaring freely through the heavens.
Ten times the speed of sound, fifty times, a hundred times! Two hundred times!
In just over ten seconds, David accelerated to two hundred times the speed of sound, reaching nearly two hundred and sixty times the speed of sound before hitting his speed limit. A gravity field generated around him, protecting his clothes.
David couldn't help but laugh, streaking across the sky like a meteor.
"I was worried about being inconvenienced at the bottom of the deep sea.
Every movement affected by deep-sea pressure, and attacks facing resistance from seawater, would greatly reduce my strength."
He thought of Atlantis, where he was about to depart.
"But now—all that is no longer a problem!"
