Zombie Marvel? Luckily, I'm Superman!

Chapter 137 The Past 3 Years

The quiet seems like a good thing, meaning that Earth has gained valuable time for development. Earth is now truly taking its first step, and its development will enter a more rapid phase from here on out.

But Lin Yi didn't believe things were that simple. Being teleported back by unknown means was a worry that Lin Yi couldn't shake off.

He kept recalling the names of the Zhiguang Clan and the Celestial Clan, the subsequent mission units, the key, and the light gate in his mind. The fact that there had been no abnormalities for three years was itself abnormal.

The calmer the sea, the deeper the undercurrents may be, or even the more distant storms may be brewing.

Lin Yi slowly clenched his fist. The surrounding space seemed to be disturbed by an invisible force, and it briefly twisted and collapsed before returning to normal.

Lin Yi wasn't quite sure how powerful he was, purely from a physical standpoint.

Upon getting up close to the sun in this universe, he quickly discovered that the sun in the real, original universe differed fundamentally from that in the Marvel universe. And this difference, however, was a positive development for him.

The rate and stability of the sun's effect on cells here are far greater than in the Marvel Universe.

Moreover, this time when he was sunbathing, he did not choose to fall asleep, but stayed awake on the surface of the sun for two and a half years.

This action was the result of comprehensive analysis and was conveyed by He Qiuyu. It was a suggestion given by a think tank composed of top domestic psychologists, behavioral scientists, strategists, and other leading scientists.

Lin Yi had mentioned to them the potential dangers of growing too quickly in terms of power, such as the indifference and irritability that might arise from excessive power towards ordinary things, and even human emotions and desires.

The analysis by the intelligence group suggests that although Lin Yi has a wealth of experience, having witnessed cosmic-level events, those "grand events" did not pose a real crisis for him. For an individual of his level, the challenges and trials were insufficient. His mental growth rate was far lower than his physical growth rate.

What he needs is "grinding," not through simple battles, but through a more introspective and static approach, to reflect, observe, experience, and understand more complex and profound things, so that his inner world becomes as resilient as his extraordinary physique.

This suggestion coincides with the direction given by the shield.

That's why Lin Yi didn't fall into a deep sleep during those two and a half years, but instead kept himself constantly alert.

But it wasn't about being awake and dazed; rather, it was about honing one's focus and patience, and spending a significant amount of time observing and experiencing the civilization of one's race.

The data recorded deep in memory in the Lost Library played a crucial role in this.

The information received in the Lost Library was not only in paper form, but also in carriers of unknown material, and even energy carriers, recorded in both text and images.

This information is not merely technical data and magic, but also the epic history of the rise and fall of countless civilizations, the joys and sorrows of countless individuals, and the clashes of thoughts, morals, and behaviors.

Thanks to the storage method, he can not only observe from the sidelines, but also participate from the perspective of a participant to gain a deeper understanding and experience of the past of these civilizations.

He experienced the struggles and choices of different civilizations when faced with survival crises, understood the insignificance and greatness of individuals under the grand wheels of history, appreciated the brilliance of art and philosophy in the long river of civilization, and examined how greed, fear, prejudice, and arrogance have repeatedly led civilizations to their demise.

He witnessed the resolute determination of colony starships embarking on a perilous journey for a glimmer of hope, and he also saw a glorious empire crumbling due to internal problems and unfair resource allocation.

I experienced the loneliness and fulfillment of a scientist who devoted his life to the pursuit of truth, and I also felt the warmth and resilience of ordinary people who did their best to protect each other in the midst of war and disaster.

This is a long "life experience" that transcends time and space, and crosses racial boundaries. Every thought, every behavior pattern, and every framework unfolds before him with an extremely complex network of cause and effect and its own internal logic.

This experience also has negative effects. Lin Yi often forgets his identity because of the overly realistic experience, as if he has truly transformed into the civilized individuals in the experience, and has experienced several near-disorientation situations.

Fortunately, he didn't truly lose his way. Through this constant tempering of his mind, he gradually shed his impetuousness, gained depth and maturity, and became more resilient, insightful, and peaceful.

The anxiety caused by the fear of a sudden surge in power was gradually replaced by a deeper and more restrained sense of control and acceptance.

At the same time, under the "guidance" of the shield, he began to try to touch that mysterious and esoteric power of the mind.

To put it simply, this thing is the power of my thoughts. If I think there's a villa here, then a villa will appear. If I think I can make myself bigger or smaller out of thin air, then this ability will arise.

"I don't even know how powerful I am now..." Lin Yi withdrew his palm, feeling the abundant energy that was different from before, and gently exhaled a hot breath.

"Looks like it's almost done, kid!" The shield, hanging on Lin Yi's chest, initiated a mental communication. "I can detect that your bio-field has increased by at least 3.76 times compared to before, and your mental fluctuations show that your focus and short-term emotional control have reached new peaks. Moreover, the seed of your idealistic abilities seems to have begun to sprout. Tsk tsk, your abilities are already evolving towards the Silver stage, which is much faster than your two older siblings. No wonder you're a genetically optimized descendant!"

"Silver stage?" Lin Yi pondered for a moment. "Then do you know exactly how powerful I am right now? Do you have any reference values?"

The Silver Superman version isn't the only one who possesses the ability of mind control. Is the gene from one's parents guiding them down a path similar to the Silver Superman?

It's not impossible, after all, Silver Superman has no upper limit in the setting, and he has already communicated with the shield about his idealistic abilities. How strong your ability is and where your upper limit is depends on the degree of your belief.

"How would I know the specific data!" The shield's voice was somewhat speechless. "Why don't you try punching that empty deep space over there? See how much spatial disturbance you can cause?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi turned his gaze to the vast, empty space beyond the solar system and clenched his fist again. The energy within his body surged and churned endlessly, even unintentionally affecting the stability of space.

Forget it. If this were the Marvel Universe, he would definitely throw a punch to test his current limits.

However, this is the real, native universe of Earth, and it is inappropriate to do so here. The spatial fluctuations and ripples caused by a punch could cause unpredictable interference to the thriving space activities on Earth, or even cause unnecessary panic.
