"Hey, wait a second!" As soon as Noah entered the System Space, he suddenly remembered something. "Don't I not have the Mind Stone? System, are you messing with me?"
Only now did Noah realize that he seemingly did not have the Mind Stone at all. Even though he had acquired a whole pile of Infinity Stones, there truly was no Mind Stone among them.
In the original storyline, the Mind Stone had been the final Stone Thanos obtained. Yet none of the Thanos variants Noah had encountered had collected all the Stones. Not even one of them had gathered five.
Then wouldn't Noah's plan to use the Infinity Stones to expand the laws within his domain fail before it even began?
Thinking about how the System had confidently told him that these Stones could completely perfect his domain's laws, Noah felt utterly depressed.
It really had been teasing him. Even if the other things were perfected, without the Mind Stone to guide them, those beings would at most be a group of powerful idiots with no intelligence whatsoever.
Even if the Soul Stone was used to perfect all that messy stuff and grant them souls of their own, evolving from "ignorant and clueless" to "full of wisdom" would be a long process.
Just look at the current world. Weren't there still plenty of ignorant and clueless people? Noah did not expect the lives within his domain to all be so "full of wisdom"—after all, being too smart was not necessarily a good thing.
Noah had not forgotten the Sovereign of Fate from Coiling Dragon. That old man had been able to sense that the world they lived in was controlled by an invisible giant hand.
But Noah also did not want the beings in his domain to be so stupid
