Only This Much?

"Only this much?" He-El's deep, gravelly voice came from within the armor.

The fact that it had not broken through the outer Mind Barrier he had prepared came as a slight surprise to He-El.

He had never underestimated the beings of this world just because of the scenes in his memories. On the contrary, he had become even more cautious, magnifying every threat this universe could pose to him.

In truth, how could the Marvel Universe, standing shoulder to shoulder with DC, possibly be a world where he could run rampant at will?

Especially when facing a treasure of the universe—the Mind Stone.

Thus, to deal with the psychic energy emitted by the Mind Stone, He-El had created multiple Mind Barriers and prepared various methods of disruption, release, escape, protection, and resistance... all to confront the Mind Stone's psychic energy.

In anyone's hands, the Mind Scepter should have been capable of unleashing crushing power.

Though one could not directly touch the stones and wield their power, the Cosmic Cube that encased the Space Stone and the scepter that guided the Mind Stone's energy had both been created to make use of the stones' power.

Yet it seemed that there was an enormous difference between creature and creature, individual and individual, when it came to controlling such treasures of the universe.

At the very least, although Loki had used the Mind Scepter to channel the Mind Stone's psychic energy, he had still failed to completely break through the Mind Barrier devices He-El had created to resist mental power.

This differed somewhat from what He-El had imagined. He had thought the Mind Stone could at least casually control the entire Earth. Even if not the entire Earth, then at least half of it, a quarter of it, or several million minds—destroying or
