Chapter 81

"The original force of this world is boiling to an abnormal degree!" Chen Ang stood at the top of the Empire State Building, overlooking the bustling and glamorous city, the crowded people, and the endless scenes of wealth, prosperity, and sin, 'a distorted world.' Chen Ang concluded.

It was hard to imagine a world with such loose rules, where physical constants could be so easily altered. Miracles from other worlds could be easily achieved here, and the realm of scientific and martial arts had reached a terrifying new level, though it was meaningless to other worlds.

However, observing this manipulation could help Chen Ang gain a deeper understanding of the essence of the world.

He gently waved his hand, and the air distorted, reflecting light. The sky and the ground were filled with dense electromagnetic waves, which appeared to Chen Ang as countless strange rays. With a flick of his finger, a beam of electromagnetic waves was disturbed.

In the distance, millions of people puzzledly put down their remote controls and stared at the snowy screens of their televisions. "Damn, what is CBS up to!" A black man cursed as he changed the channel, but the snowy screen quickly infected the TV like a virus. ABC, NBC, and even FOX were not spared.

The black man angrily stuck his head out of the window and was surprised to find that countless people were doing the same thing. At the same time, the snowy screen spread rapidly like a virus across New York, the United States, the Americas, and even the entire Earth. It started with the TV networks, then spread to mobile phones, the internet, and radio, plunging the entire world into a boiling panic.

"Hello everyone! I am at the Empire State Building, greeting you all!" A strange voice spoke in multiple languages simultaneously. No matter where they were, a tall figure appeared on their screens, looking down at the world with his gaze.

"This is a world full of miracles, mutants, superpowers, radiation monsters, super technology, and superheroes. They constantly颠覆一切科学常识." Chen Ang smiled.

"To be honest, I am surprised that you can still maintain a relatively sound scientific view. Phenomena that constantly颠覆常识 and scientific laws appear before you, yet you still adhere to science and do not go mad. That's impressive!" Although he said this, Chen Ang's face did not show much astonishment.

Countless people on Earth seemed to disagree with his view, cursing the man on TV in the most angry language. They had never imagined that a mutant could be so rampant, something that had never happened in the entire world. All the superheroes, X-Men, set out for the Empire State Building.

"He's a madman," many people said. "A valuable person," politicians saw Chen Ang's influence. "A genius, guys, that guy is a genius," the Brotherhood of Mutants cheered.

"Hey! Look here." Chen Ang heard a voice behind him and turned to see Storm, with her gray hair, suddenly unleash a powerful gust of wind, carrying an unstoppable kinetic energy, rushing towards Chen Ang's abdomen.

But in that instant, Chen Ang seemed weightless, floating gently with the wind like a leaf. His toes touched the air current, and he drifted dozens of meters with the force. A high-energy laser suddenly shot at Chen Ang, but it reflected back like it hit a mirror.

The X-Men looked at Chen Ang in surprise, and they suddenly heard the Professor's voice: "Be careful, his mind is very strong. I cannot detect, sense, or influence him. He is a formidable opponent."

Suspended in the air, Chen Ang smiled, "Hello, Professor!" Cyclops lost control of his body, and a voice echoed in his mind. The Professor's voice disappeared and reappeared after a while, "Since Jean, you are the most terrifying mutant I have ever seen. Why do you choose chaos and darkness, child?"

"I have never chosen darkness; it favors me, but I disdain it," Chen Ang said calmly. "Slaughter and chaos, power and wealth, are not what I pursue. I am always moving forward."

"I feel your heart, pure and resolute. I can even sense your kindness towards all things. Why is this so?" the Professor asked in surprise.

"There are so many mutants in the world, manipulating the universe with various incredible abilities, immortality, time suspension, optical control, telepathy, but they are intoxicated by power and do not understand or comprehend the world. Do you know what the essence of superpowers is?"

"I don't know what you think it is. I believe superpowers are a gift from God, making each child more outstanding. Superpowers make the world more exciting, but human jealousy and suspicion have changed everything. Child, you will exacerbate this process," the Professor sighed.

"Those who do evil will ultimately suffer the consequences. Superpowers are not about strength, power, or status. They are about knowledge and discovery. When superpowered individuals use their abilities for the benefit of humanity, the barriers and slaughter will naturally resolve."

"I will be proud of this. The power of superpowers may not be about maintaining strength, but about promoting progress. Child, you are the leader of the superpowered, more suitable to lead them than Magneto and I. Come with me!" the Professor said with emotion. "You are the future."

"But I am not a mutant," Chen Ang smiled.

"That doesn't matter," the Professor said sincerely.

"Your pursuit is world peace, not progress. I am different; I pursue progress. We are not on the same path," Chen Ang sighed. "I will let the world see the power of wisdom, see how superpowers can drive progress. I hope this will be helpful to you."

"You don't need to take this path. Progress with humanity!" the Professor said anxiously.

"I am a traveler of time and space, a messenger of progress. For each world, I am just a passerby. I appreciate the different landscapes of various worlds, I listen to the surging sounds of fate, and I declare the direction of progress. Let me witness the wonders of this world! Whether you are here or there, whether you are a hero or a criminal, I witness all of this."

Chen Ang raised his hand, and a bolt of lightning descended, striking Storm and sending her flying. Standing at the peak of the Empire State Building, he declared to the world, "I am the King of the World!"

"No!" the Professor said anxiously, and Wolverine's eyes suddenly lost focus, stopping behind Chen Ang.

"You don't need to worry; he can't hurt me," Chen Ang smiled.

Wolverine shook off his daze and asked in shock, "Professor, what are you doing?"

Chen Ang looked into the void, as if his gaze intersected with another. He smiled at the global audience, "Hello everyone, it's time for a little science lesson."

A small stone floated slightly, and Chen Ang held it, smiling, "The ability to move objects with the mind, which you call telekinesis, is clearly a mistaken concept. You cannot deduce conclusions from results; this is a serious error in science."

"Telekinesis, beneath the surface, is a vast intelligence. Look, this is how most superpowered individuals fight!" Chen Ang laughed, throwing the stone at the wall, creating a large hole with the intense kinetic energy.

"Direct methods, but too crude. Treating telekinesis as an energy source is a ridiculous usage. This world is never short of energy sources. If used for control, look." Chen Ang smiled, floating a pool of gasoline, which suddenly burst into intense flames, releasing enormous kinetic and thermal energy towards the Empire State Building.

Visibly, the tower's tip was melting and breaking, and the top of the Empire State Building collapsed, but under Chen Ang's control, it quietly became a pile of rubble, demonstrating an unprecedented level of control.

"The heat value of gasoline is about 44,000 kJ/kg. One liter of gasoline, at a density of 0.73 g/ml, can produce 3.212 x 10^4 kJ of energy. What can this energy do? Melt metal, destroy boulders, these are trivial. Just one liter of gasoline can destroy the entire Hoover Dam."

Storm almost trembled, knowing that Chen Ang had opened a Pandora's box. Humanity might destroy itself before mastering such powerful forces.

Chen Ang continued calmly, "Controlling power is not much. When you discover the intelligence behind the power, that's where the real excitement lies. What is telekinesis? To me, it's a gravitational field. To others, it might be a magnetic field or fluid control. One manifestation can have countless possibilities."

"And my telekinesis should be called gravitational manipulation."

Chen Ang floated a piece of gravel and said, "The essence of gravity is the influence of mass on the curvature of space. So my telekinesis has three points: mass, space, and energy. Unfortunately, we are on a massive mass, in countless spatial curvatures. When intelligence and control reach a certain level, it becomes a nightmare."

"The curvature of space causes objects to move, like high-density objects moving to low-density areas. This is the essence of telekinesis. Energy is conserved, and all telekinetic users rely on the massive mass beneath our feet."

"So, what happens when this control and influence reach its peak?" Chen Ang smiled, and countless Americans suddenly gasped. They saw the Statue of Liberty being rapidly destroyed into a pile of debris under immense pressure.

The Manhattan River rose into the sky as if it had lost gravity, and billions of gallons of water rushed towards the sea, creating a scene of destruction. "To destroy the Statue of Liberty, I need a moment. To destroy Manhattan, I need three seconds. New York, three minutes. New York State, three hours. The United States, three days. The entire world, just three weeks."

"Congratulations, everyone. In three days, an 800-meter asteroid will hit the Earth. In three weeks, a 30-kilometer asteroid will strike. In three months, you will have the privilege of witnessing the collision between the Moon and the Earth. Humanity will be destroyed. Now, whether you are a hero or a criminal, a mutant or a normal person, find me and
