The Challenge Match About to Begin

"You may have forgotten that I'm a full twelve years older than you all," Magneto rolled his eyes. "And the appearance of the [Future Body] has nothing to do with the past."

"The 'Future Body' is theoretically the most powerful and perfect form we can achieve."

"This is simply because I now seem to possess the same characteristics as the Asgard royal family, growing stronger with age."

The four of them quickly finished selecting the parts.

As for why it's said to be four people.

Because after Ron had mastered the [Galaxy], there were no extra slots for [Rule Component].

However, the completeness of the Future Body after fusing with Mewtwo, and the containment of the Galaxy, instantly refined the Pioneer within him that had not yet been fully digested.

So he picked out some high-end parts.

The Dr. Ogami previously mentioned the basic upgrades: [Black Hole Engine 2.0], [Strong Interaction Armor], and [Zero Friction Coefficient Gears].

As for the other three...

Without considering compatibility.

Erik chose [Heart of Time Sequence] —Susan's first [Rule Component].

Perpetual Motion Machine on the time plane can continuously restart time, keeping the car at its peak condition and giving the driver the ability to ignore the process and go straight to the result.

Katy chose [Destroyer][Heart of Time Sequence].

The former can make up for her lack of destructive power.

The latter can offset the energy consumption when [Avalon] is turned on at full power, and there is even a surplus after offsetting.

And Susan.

She chose [Destroyer][Great God Evolution System][Avalon][Parallel World Interference Device].

She chose [Destroyer] for the same reason as Katy.

The [Great God Evolution System] is because it was Katy's first Rule Component, and its name contains the name of Dr. Ogami.

[Avalon] is because it's the only one left on the entire shelf; including Katy's, there are only two left. Dr. Ogami that it suits her very well.

The [Parallel World Interference Device] was entirely out of curiosity.

She really wanted to see what a parallel world was like.

And to figure out why, even though parallel worlds have been discovered, there has been no interaction between them.

(The people of the Wizarding World were also very curious.)

(Especially since they have already begun interacting with parallel worlds.)

(If we also consider the Novel Harry, their world is already connected to both worlds.)

(Therefore, almost all the viewers were eagerly waiting.)

The same applies to Magneto, Ron, Katy.

Under their expectations, Susan, having absorbed all the [Rule Component], was too preoccupied to be surprised by the Soul of the Car Power that had now expanded to a point where she could barely sense its limits.

It directly activated the [Parallel World Interference Device].

"I'm really curious, what would a parallel world be like?" Ron said excitedly.

Of the four, he was the first to experience the [Parallel World Interference Device].

He was attacked with it in the Da Shen Cup.

At that time, he felt as if he had been divided into countless parts.

Susan felt her consciousness sinking and collapsing to its limit, and the so-called gap between parallel worlds appeared in her senses.

However.

"There's nothing there." Her face was pale. "No, I saw myself!"

"What did you say?" Magneto in surprise.

"How is that possible?" Ron exclaimed in shock.

Katy frowned and remained silent; she was equally incredulous.

Susan responded quickly, seemingly eager to express her inner panic. "I saw countless versions of ourselves, and countless versions of me were looking at me. They are me, they are who I am now. I can feel them."

"They overlapped to form me."

"What do you mean, 'me'? 'me'?" Ron's head was even more confused.

Magneto and Katy felt the answer was right on the tip of their tongues, but a fog still lingered in their minds.

"Don't you understand?" Susan's face flushed. "Parallel worlds are born from different choices. But this world... no, this Multiverse doesn't."

"The choice of Eternity roles is fixed, and they are bound by the same script."

"Only ordinary people make slightly different life choices."

Therefore, parallel worlds only exist relative to them.

"For the drivers participating in the race, the moment they enter the race, the parallel worlds also disappear, and all the worlds overlap."

"For those Informed One and those Beyonder, parallel worlds simply do not exist."

"For them, whose inner Soul of the Car Power is almost equivalent to the Destiny Force, the world is just one thing, like the race itself."

"I think I understand what [the Great Cataclysm] is all about."

"It is a whirlwind sweeping across the overlapping world."

"It doesn't exist for ordinary people living in the middle, for ordinary drivers."

"Only those who live on the surface, those who are Informed One of this superimposed, unique world, those Beyonder, those who are Eternity, can perceive it."

"What?" Ron asked, his eyes filled with confusion.

"Don't you understand?" Susan wanted to challenge Ron to a duel at that moment. "The world we live in is like an unfolded folding fan."

"We live on the part at the end of a fan rib that overlaps, while ordinary people live on fan surfaces that do not overlap."

"And the Eternity role lies in the only metal horn nail that connects the fan ribs."

"We cannot get close to the plot because we are just creatures on the overlapping wooden ribs of a fan."

"We become stronger because of the competition, because it's the only time we can get incredibly close to that horn nail."

"I think... maybe the World Cup will be held on that bull's horn nail."

"No wonder I saw far more chains than usual when I transcended. They came from countless parallel worlds. We are also breaking free from the shackles of unoverlapping worlds, gathering all the possibilities of parallel worlds, and moving closer to the center," Ron remarked.

He probably understood.

("Do you think she's right, Harry?" Ginny asked.)

("Combined with what she said, I finally roughly understand the part I didn't understand when they transcended," Harry said. "This part is actually the only possibility in the Multiverse that can bring itself into focus.")

"An unfolded folding fan—a very apt description," said Dr. Tsuchiya.

The four returned to Dr. Tsuchiya institute.

After all, Lie and Okada Tesshin have been there recently, and it's the center of the storyline, so it's impossible to get close to them.

"Parallel worlds do not exist relative to us."

"Why didn't you tell us before?" Ron asked curiously.

"When you transcend, knowing too much is not a good thing," Dr. Tsuchiya said. "Moreover, only a few people are born with the ability to perceive parallel worlds and have the talent to accommodate [Parallel World Interference Devices ]."

"For those who cannot see, no matter how apt the description, it cannot be truly understood."

There's no need to mention it.

"It will be finished tomorrow, tomorrow."

"I thought it would take longer."

Magneto sighed.

There is still one month until the challenge.

Based on the progress of previous inquiries, the Proto-Universe should be completed in about a week.

But now, it's been brought forward.

"This is all thanks to Grandpa Ironheart," Ron said. "According to the plot, he's currently staying at the research institute, constantly messing with the Da Shen while instilling in Tsuchikata and the Hijikata Rei the real fun of mini racing—modifying the cars themselves."

"In fact, Hijikata Rei made some pretty good changes," Susan said. "That's what Mr. Ironheart thought."

"She put springs on the Devil Commander's 'spear'."

"This is indeed very effective in preventing the accident of the [Jirōmaru Special Special] from happening again."

"But Dr. Ogami doesn't like anyone modifying his cars, even the most trivial changes to the paint color."

"Mr. Tie Xin believes that Dr. Ogami is more about fulfilling his dream of becoming a race car driver."

"Because I'm an adult and can't drive cars, I train my own drivers and have them compete in my place."

"And he's very obsessive, only liking aggressive racing."

"When faced with the non-combat mini-car that utilizes my technology—[Hurricane Sonic], even if I acknowledge its excellence in my heart, I must pretend to be a boring car."

"Luckily, we didn't encounter Dr. Ogami like that," Ron remarked.

("Didn't my brother realize that the Dr. Ogami hasn't actually changed at all?" Ginny complained. "The parts room is mostly filled with combat parts, and his specialty is vehicle spirit modification technology.")

("It's still the same.")

The next day.

Da Shen Research Institute.

"Let your [Future Body] jump down, without any protection."

"At the edge of the Lava Track," said the Dr. Ogami.

"It's right in the center of the volcano."

"Yes." The aging Magneto — his Future Body —replied and jumped down.

"Ugh—" Magneto, who remained on the track, couldn't help but let out a soft groan.

These days, even without the implantation of the [Rule Components ], his [Future Body] has taken on a complete appearance.

With all the senses.

It can fully sense the process of being burned and turned into charcoal.

An enduring past provides support for the future.

Even without using any power, the [Future Body] is just a mortal body.

But the charred body automatically reverts to its original state, only to be burned again, and so on in an endless cycle.

It brought him endless pain.

"Aren't we going down?" Ron asked, his body shimmering with Starlight, making him look like Cosmic Knight.

He wanted to see what the Proto-Universe looked like, compared to the artificial universe inside his body.

This is not because he is arrogant.

The parts room may contain a lot of [galaxies], but that doesn't mean it's ordinary.

On the contrary, it can be considered one of the top-of-the-line "Rule Components ".

It's just that the car maker, whose soul is the universe, doesn't need to put in much effort to make it; he can simply copy and paste, and make multiple of them at once.

"No need," said the Dr. Ogami. "The offerings are already sufficient."

"Sacrificial offerings?" Ron stammered in surprise.

(The afterlife.)

(A hint of nostalgia flashed in Quirrell's eyes.)

"Hmph hmph ahhh—" Magneto yelled even louder.

Now, another version of myself is not only being burned by the high temperature.

Instead, they are squeezed and torn apart.

It was as if the whole world was pressing down on him, crushing him into mud.

No, particles smaller than mud, even smaller than neutrinos.

My eyes, which had only briefly recovered, could only perceive a blurry image.

He [his Future Body] is currently inside a silver-white instrument.

Both sides are constantly emitting rainbow light with colors Superman can perceive, and then they keep exploding.

His "Future Body" was at the epicenter of the explosion.

The singularity of the universe was born in this never-ending Big Bang, and his "Future Body" is a part of it.

"Erik's [Future Body] is the sacrifice?" Even someone as slow-witted as Ron realized it now.

He knew exactly how resilient and patient Magneto was.

In the ninja world.

In [Pure Land], Magneto is the only Champion who can keep going to his death, with only moving forward on his mind.

Under the bombardment of ninjutsu born from the most vicious techniques in ninja history, Erik, who keeps dying and then mustering the courage to face death, can't help but cry out.

You can imagine how painful that must have been.

"Only in this way can the most suitable [Rule Component] be created." The Dr. Ogami nodded, glancing at Ron with surprise.

He had assumed Ron would be slow to react as usual and had already prepared a prepared explanation.

In the end, it was all for naught.

Magneto was still screaming in agony.

Ron and his two companions were initially somewhat worried.

But as time went on, nine-tenths of their worries faded, leaving behind one-tenth boredom, one-tenth annoyance, and seven-tenths lethargy.

They all unconsciously drifted off into their own thoughts.

"Alright."

So when they heard the Dr. Ogami say that, they thought they had misheard.

After all, Magneto, curled up on the ground, was still yelling.

However, the motor that appeared in the hands of the Dr. Ogami was composed of two colors, one black and one white, and seemed to occupy the mass of the entire universe, possessing infinite gravity and attracting everything around it.

That is the best proof.

Dr. Ogami throws the motor at Magneto on the ground.

A strange ripple spread across Magneto's forehead, as if he were a three-dimensional projection with motors embedded within it.

Then

His sweat-soaked clothes dried instantly, his face changed from pale to rosy, and his pupils regained their clarity.

Only the screams continued unabated due to inertia.

The sound just kept getting quieter.

"It's over?"

Nearly a minute later, Magneto realized that he no longer needed to howl; it was all over.

His "Future Body" also came to a perfect end.

He subconsciously ignored the pain of the black and white car spirits that split in the middle, which corresponded to the [Future Body], and the pain that tore out of the [Nick].

After all, this is far less painful than personally experiencing the creation of the universe.

If the latter is the pain of childbirth, the former is just the sensation from pressing the fingertips, which can't even be considered pain.

"Amazing!" Harry couldn't help but exclaim. "He didn't faint."

("This pain must far exceed the limits that a normal life can endure.")

("If it is used as fuel to cast the [The Cruciatus Curse], the spell can even work on Cosmic Knight.")

("If he had any knowledge of the Force Mechanics, he would probably have already achieved a high level of mastery of the Force, and incidentally, even created the Cosmic Force.")

"As expected of you." The Dr. Ogami seemed to have anticipated that Magneto could endure it without fainting.

"After all, this is far less painful than the sudden reversal of the Destiny Force into the Anti-Destiny Force."

"If you could scream out when you transcend, your screams would probably have already spread throughout all parallel worlds."

"If I had passed out, what would I have done?" Magneto noticed that Dr. Ogami seemed quite concerned that he hadn't passed out.

"You didn't faint, so the compatibility between the [Proto-Universe] and your Future Body is 100%. If you had fainted," the Dr. Ogami raised an eyebrow, "Even 50% would have been difficult."
