Only a few minutes passed before Pepper's body slowly collapsed onto the ground.
"Oh my god!"
When Pepper opened her eyes, her body trembled. She jolted awake and cried out loudly.
"Pepper, what did you see?"
Seeing Pepper wake up, Tony hurriedly asked.
"I saw one unimaginable colossal being after another."
"Before them, I felt far too small."
"So small that I was not even as significant as an ant."
Pepper's face was pale, and her words carried reverence.
"Those were manifestations of the Void Will."
"They also represent the ultimate forms we may one day attain after joining the Void."
"So you don't need to be afraid."
Seeing Pepper break out in a cold sweat from fright, Tony hurriedly comforted her.
"You mean I'll become one of those colossal beings too?"
Pepper's face turned even paler at those words.
"You only saw those colossal beings?"
Hearing this, Tony's gaze flickered as he carefully questioned her.
"Mm, I only saw terrifying monsters, each one larger than a planet."
Although Pepper found the question strange, she still nodded.
"Don't worry. Trust me, that might be their most primitive form at the pinnacle of evolution."
"With the use of power, they can transform into humanoid forms."
Hearing Pepper's answer, Tony's eyes flickered as his mind raced, and he spoke to reassure her.
"Is there anything to eat?"
Pepper had been frightened, but the hunger rising from her stomach quickly made her look at Tony and ask.
"I had people prepare something long ago. It should arrive later."
"And there are many more things I need to explain to you next."
"You don't need to worry, much less be afraid."
"I'm here."
Tony was not surprised to see that Pepper had begun to feel hungry as well.
"Okay."
Hearing those reassuring words, Pepper nodded slightly.
Elsewhere.
Harvey Anberaka drove back to his home.
The system had just notified him that someone wanted to learn about and join the Void.
Harvey did not even need to think to know that Tony had persuaded Pepper, so he directly agreed.
Pepper joining only gave him 5,000 Void Energy, a full twenty times less than when Tony Stark had joined.
However, letting Pepper join would allow Tony Stark to fully accept the Void.
So Harvey did not care how much Void Energy Pepper brought him.
Besides, Harvey had more important matters to attend to now.
Harvey first changed into a loose, comfortable set of loungewear, then went to the underground training ground.
Harvey opened the Hero Template, which displayed an indicator showing he had one selection available.
Before he learned that spreading the Void Will more widely would allow him to choose more Hero Templates,
he had thought that if he ever got a second chance, he would definitely choose Void Terror Cho'Gath.
With the Void Predator's and Void Terror's double layers of terrifying evolutionary abilities,
as long as he evolved several more times, his survivability could rise to an extremely high level.
By then, even if he had not truly grown strong yet, as long as he did not provoke certain celestial gods in the universe, there would be no enemies capable of threatening his life.
But now that he knew the more people who believed in the Void, the more opportunities he would gain to choose Hero Templates,
his best choice at present was only one: Void Walker Kassadin's power.
As long as he possessed Void Walker Kassadin's Void Walk, he could directly travel into space and establish the Void Cult.
Some major figures held sway on Earth, so he could not act recklessly there. In the universe, aside from the Nine Realms, there was nothing to fear on other planets.
Even Thanos did not worry him in the slightest.
Rather than fearing that Thanos might threaten him, he was more afraid of whoever gathered all six Infinity Stones.
At this stage, Thanos had yet to collect all six Infinity Stones, so Harvey had nothing to worry about.
In the universe, even setting aside certain people blessed with powerful destinies, there were countless races born with greater strength. When enough of them accumulated, they could also make up for the importance of destiny.
As long as he evolved quickly enough, there would be nothing to fear.
Thus, as Harvey looked at Void Walker Kassadin's Hero Template, he chose it without much hesitation.
"Do you confirm that you wish to acquire Void Walker Kassadin's Hero Template? This choice cannot be changed once made."
The system's voice rang out in Harvey's mind at that moment.
Perhaps because the opportunities to choose Hero Templates were few and precious, the system had asked the same question the first time as well.
"Confirm."
But Harvey had already thought it through, so he ultimately confirmed it.
The moment he confirmed, an aged yet arrogant voice rang out in Harvey's mind.
"Few can walk between worlds." — Kassadin
As those words sounded, a flood of knowledge Harvey had never understood before poured into his mind.
It made Harvey feel as though he had been enlightened. It was mysterious and profound magical knowledge, along with methods of wielding Void Energy.
At the same time, a deep purple stone appeared from the void and directly fused into Harvey's body.
Harvey stood with his eyes closed as time slowly passed, until night fell.
Only then did Harvey truly digest that vast body of knowledge.
When he opened his eyes again, Harvey's black eyes had become even deeper, with traces of golden light in their depths.
The world Harvey saw also contained much more purple energy that he had been unable to perceive before.
Harvey felt as though the world before him had completely changed as he carefully considered the many pieces of magical knowledge in his mind.
Harvey extended his right hand, and a purple Void Blade was directly drawn forth. The space pulled open by the Void Blade warped, looking incomparably terrifying.
At the same time, with a thought, Harvey's body rose into the air. Purple-black orbs of magic began condensing in the void and circling around him.
Reflected in the violet light, Harvey's aura became somewhat sinister and strange.
He did not even need to evolve a flight ability. Merely by wielding the magical energy drifting through the void, he could fly directly.
Harvey closed his eyes. Though he was clearly in the basement, his vision stretched farther and farther, piercing through matter as though he were looking down from above.
Harvey rose into the air and stepped down. A void opening appeared beneath his feet, and his body turned into a streak of purple light before vanishing.
The next second, Harvey appeared in the first-floor hall.
"One pursued the ultimate body, while the other pursued the ultimate magic."
"Before the body has truly grown strong, magic really is king."
Seeing that he had passed directly through the walls and instantly arrived on the first floor just as he had imagined, Harvey could not help but sigh.
