His cells burned explosively, and his strength grew savagely!
Billions upon billions of cells greedily devoured the immense power coming from the sun. They had gone completely mad!
Devour! Annihilate! Grow stronger!
Billions upon billions of cells celebrated at once, and Chen Xi could feel their wild joy with perfect clarity.
In just a few minutes, he discovered that the increase in his strength had already surpassed what he used to gain in several hours!
Was this even a qualitative change? This was nuclear fusion, wasn't it?
Every second, he could feel his power exploding. It was an utterly unreasonable surge.
A cheat? What cheat could compare to the Super Kryptonian Physique?
One ton!
Two tons!
Ten tons!!
A hundred tons!!
"..."
Lost in becoming stronger, Chen Xi was completely intoxicated by this explosive growth that came with every passing second.
And so, he stood quietly in Earth's orbit, greedily devouring the sun's energy, unaware that everything about him had made the astronauts aboard the International Space Station question their lives!
"Oh my God!! Jack! Come look! There seems to be someone outside! Oh my God!"
"Chris, are you kidding me? This is space! How could there possibly be a human here?!"
"Fuck!! I'm not fucking lying to you! Fuck you!"
"Stop, are you serious?"
Seeing how serious Chris sounded, Jack actually began to believe him.
"Shit! Come see for yourself!"
Chris snapped at him irritably, and Jack, along with the other astronauts, hurried over and saw it too!
"Oh my God!! Oh my God!! It really is!!"
"Quick! Quick! Take pictures and send them back to mission control!"
"Oh, fuck! This has to be the greatest discovery of the century! A human body can actually survive in space!"
"Oh my God! Is that an alien? Or a god?"
"..."
After ground control received the photos sent by the space station, they immediately reported them up the chain. Only then did they realize that the unidentified flying object was actually a person wrapped in pitch-black armor?
"Fuck!! This is way too fucking absurd, isn't it?"
NASA was questioning reality too. This was simply the stuff of fantasy. What kind of creature could survive in space?
S.H.I.E.L.D. received the news as well. Nick Fury and the others fell silent as they stared at the photos on the computer.
The conference room was completely quiet. They simply could not comprehend such an existence. It had utterly shattered their worldview.
"Director... Are... are they sure that's a real person? Not space junk?" Coulson asked weakly.
The others also looked up at Nick Fury, the Black man.
They shared Coulson's thoughts. Was it really not debris that had drifted over from some other planet in the universe?
It wasn't as if S.H.I.E.L.D. had never encountered aliens, but no living alien would dare pull something like this off. Even with absurdly advanced technology, doing this would still mean death.
Nick Fury, seated at the head of the table, nodded silently. "He's a real living person. He even moves his body from time to time."
"Oh shit! God bless that he's just an alien who got carried away, and that his suit's oxygen runs out soon."
"What if he doesn't need oxygen to survive? What if he can enter Earth? Who knows whether he'll be an enemy or a friend?"
"Natasha, are you suggesting that the Eye of God fire an energy beam and kill him?"
"No, no, that plan won't work at all. How do you know it can definitely kill him? What if it can't? What if he retaliates like a madman?"
The entire S.H.I.E.L.D. conference room erupted into a noisy mess like a marketplace, but in the end, they still came up with no answer.
Chen Xi had no idea that merely basking in the sun had caused the entire planet to panic...
Time passed bit by bit. Like someone waking from sleep, he finally felt that it was time to go home. If Wanda found out he had snuck off, she would definitely give him hell again.
The sunlight in space had allowed him to improve at an astonishing rate. Solar energy at this level seemed worlds apart from the solar energy on the ground.
According to his calculations, the atmosphere had blocked most of the sun's energy, making the solar energy on the ground utterly incomparable to that in space.
It was precisely because of the atmosphere that life on Earth could thrive.
Without the atmosphere, life on Earth would die instantly. There would be no room for negotiation.
Solar radiation alone would wipe out all life. Oxygen would not even need to make a move...
The solar energy in space, however, was incomparably pure. Before this, he had merely been absorbing a weakened version.
"System, open the status panel. Let me see just how much solar energy I absorbed in these five or six hours."
"Understood. The status panel has been opened for the host."
Host: Chen Xi Age: 24 [This universe] Faction: A shameless fence-sitter Partners: Scarlet Witch Wanda, Terminator, Lockdown, Spider-Gwen Physique: Bronze Superman [Silver Superman pending unlock] Strength: 4,290 tons Speed: Mach 30 Abilities: Steel of Body, Bio-electric Field, Heat Vision, Telekinesis, Flight [Other abilities awaiting awakening] Justice Points: 130,000.
"Holy shit! That's fucking awesome!!"
The moment Chen Xi saw the status panel opened by the system, he immediately shouted in amazement. He was ecstatic!
Just one night had increased his strength by several hundred tons. One night, and he had gained a base Hulk's worth of strength?
His speed had increased by ten Mach as well. What kind of concept was that?!
Even the fastest fighter jets, developed over half a century, had been effortlessly surpassed by him after one night's sleep!
If those scientists found out, they would probably quit on the spot and switch to biotechnology research, wouldn't they?
There had never been a road in the world. Once enough people walked it, it became one.
Chen Xi's path of evolution had unexpectedly sparked an evolutionary frenzy because of his Homelander antics!
When he returned to the villa and saw Wanda and Gwen waiting for him, he suddenly smacked his forehead and remembered.
It seemed he had had too much fun and forgotten to tell them...
Looking at the two women's resentful expressions, he scratched his head awkwardly.
"You still remembered to come back? You've got some nerve, running off to wander around in space?" Wanda snapped resentfully.
If Red Queen had not hacked Earth's satellites, they would not even have known that this guy had gone to space to sleep.
Wanda and Gwen finally understood that their man was actually a Superman who only appeared in comic books!
Of course, an even bigger question arose. The Superman in the comics clearly had a Western face, but this guy clearly had an Eastern one.
"Cough, cough... I got carried away and forgot."
Chen Xi scratched his head awkwardly. It wasn't really his fault...
The path of becoming stronger was truly addictive!
