Chapter 2 - The Omni Force!

When Gan saw the others chatting, he found out that Force Walker was from the Star Wars reality. He had survived Order 66, whom he repeatedly warned his master, who happened to be Shaak Ti.

He told her that the Clones had been compromised and that Palpatine was the true Dark Lord behind the war.

Many things have shifted with significantly more Jedi survivors, initiating a hard-fought cold war between the two sides. He stated that even though they managed to slay Palpatine, the guy had clones set in place.

Gan finally understood why Palpatine wasn't afraid of death when Mace defeated him.

Force Walker was offering to sell a Lightsaber to anyone for points. He had seen a few items on his personal market that could boost his Midichlorian count.ย 

After all, he only had 11,350 Midchlorians, which could be considered above average.ย 

Gan decided to check out his Marketplace.

>๐Œ๐š๐ซ๐ค๐ž๐ญ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ž<

-Lesser Strength Elixir: 500 Points

-Lesser Agility Elixir: 500 Points

-Lesser Durability Elixir: 500 Points

Gan encountered more potent Elixirs that had the potential to elevate his physique to a greater degree as he continued.

The ranks went as such: Lesser, Low, Medium, High, Supreme, Transcendence, and Cosmic. As Gan continued to scroll down, he encountered the standard modern-day weapons.ย 

Eventually, he came across Artifacts from the Marvel world. This included the Infinity Stones, Super Soldier Serums, Cosmic Cube, The Ebony Blade, The Necro Blade, The Darkhold, Etc.

However, these weapons couldn't be bought; they could only be rented, and the prices were exceedingly high.ย 

They were in the millions!

With a sigh, Gan went to the Auction house.

"I can set up a store and a list of items I wish to sell. It appears that I can also auction off valuable items." Gan could place the more valuable items in the auction house.ย 

What valuable things could he put up anyway?ย 

"Alright. Time to set up my room for now. I should probably wait until I awaken my ability before figuring out my next course of action."

Yesterday, his dad helped him carry his newly boxed bed set to his new room. His brother wasn't present at that time, so how could he know that Gan had planned this all out?

Gan swiftly cut open the box and began pulling out the bed set. He felt quite upbeat because of the chat room. It was reassuring to know he wasn't the only traveler.

Grabbing the instructions, Gan got to work. He could build his bed in the meantime until he could unlock his power.ย 

First came the foundation, then the bar foundation to keep the bed from sinking in. Though he had something to cover that already.ย 

Time passed, and all that was left was for Gan to add the platform foundation. This would be where he would place both his mattresses. At some point in time, his brother Galen had come down, and his expression didn't look so good.

He begged to trade rooms with him, but how could Gan do that? He told his brother to get lost and that he would never consider switching rooms.ย 

Galen came to tell him that his dad said they could order their own furniture. They had to get their furniture from a certain website that their parents had chosen.ย 

Gan's bed was located in a separate room away from the main area. There were several rooms down here. He planned to use one as a recreation room; this particular room had a kitchen within it.ย 

"I unlocked the chatroom at 1:00 PM, but now there are two hours left before I awaken my power." Gan pulled up the chat group again to see what was going.

"I need to visit my friend in the hospital tomorrow." Gan sighed deeply.

He saw this friend the previous week after arriving in New York. Gan and his family had been living with his grandparents until his father's new job provided them with a house.

This was a friend from his childhood whom he had encountered while staying with his grandparents in Queens. She was battling kidney and liver cancer, and it appeared to be advancing to more advanced stages!

Gan searched the Marketplace for the cure to cancer, but there was no cure to be found.ย 

-Cosmic King(26): Does anyone have the cure for cancer in here?-

-The Stranger(10): Strange, I was studying the cure for cancer last year. I stopped since I didn't make much progress.-ย 

-Holy Emperor(19): Do you have cancer or something? Why do you need the cure for that?-

-Cosmic King(26): No, I don't have it. A friend of mine was diagnosed with cancer. To be exact, both liver and kidney cancer.-

-The Primordial(15): What the hell?! It's over; that person is next-level dead; there is simply no hope!-

Gan didn't reply, but his expression darkened as he knew what would come next. He closed the chat room and began to doze off. This was likely Gan simply coping with the reality of the matter.ย 

Ding!

Suddenly, Gan heard what sounded like a call bell. The type you'd hear in a bar or a restaurant when an order was ready.

"What?" Gan sat up and wiped the drool from his mouth that had gone down his cheek.

"I'm drooling. Damn, I must have been tired from moving and building my bed." Gan suddenly remembered something, he quickly checked the time.

Seeing the time, Gan quickly logged into the chat room. He could see the newcomers excitedly discussing their new Ultimate ability.ย 

They also told them that they should sign in every day since it was free points. Upon seeing these messages, Gan quickly signed in and received his reward.

[Congratulations, Cosmic King, you've received 100 Points!]

Gan checked his profile and discovered his newfound ability.

"The Omni Force? What does this ability do, exactly? It seems fairly powerful, at least the name gives off a sense of strength."

Gan clicked his Ultimate Ability to see if he could get a description. As soon as he clicked the interface, his mind buzzed as information about his ability began to bombard his brain.

"Ugh!" It actually gave him a temporary headache to the point where he was holding his head and closing his eyes.

The procedure lasted for fifteen seconds before fading away. During those moments, he was not only gaining insights into his powers but also being granted those abilities.

"Oh my god! This ability is overpowered, isn't it?!" Gan was utterly shocked as he received all the information about his ability. He could feel something different about his body, but he wasn't sure what it was, exactly.ย 

Gan turned to the chat room where the description of his ability was present. He simply couldn't stop smiling at this crazy power of his.ย

[๐Ž๐ฆ๐ง๐ข ๐…๐จ๐ซ๐œ๐ž]

โ€ขThis ability allows the user to permanently copy any abilities or powers of a target through touch, limitlessly. This ability is not limited to blood, objects, etc.

The target must be within the user's line of sight and visible to the user. Once the target's skillset is replicated, the copied skillset will be perfected. The user may choose to remove any existing flaws at will.

โ€ขDue to the user deriving from a higher ๐๐š๐ซ๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž, any Mind, Soul, or Spirit attacks are rendered useless against the user. Due to the user coming from a higher ๐๐š๐ซ๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž, he/she can't be detected by deities of all levels.ย 

โ€ขCopied abilities can be bestowed upon others and objects without the user losing the abilities bestowed. The user may also take away the abilities he/she bestowed upon them/it at any given time or place.ย 

โ€ขThe user can see other Realities known to him/her from their previous world, but the user can't directly see into them. The user of this ability may also travel to other realities known to him from his previous world. The user must have an ability outlet that allows him/her to travel to these realities that no known being can access.ย 

------

With such an ability, Gan was overwhelmingly confident that he could reach Trascendence if he didn't die beforehand.ย 

Gan was so happy that he started to dance; now, he wanted to go to the same school as Peter Parker.

"Wait! This ability can copy the power of objects, so does that mean I can copy the powers of the Infinity Stones?!"

If this were the case, then he'd be just that much closer to ultimate power.ย 

"This is likely the case, but how am I going to get my hands on the Infinity Stones?" These stones were always in the hands of powerful beings or groups.

"The only power I can potentially copy is Peter Parker's ability as Spider-Man." Gan wanted to ask his parent if he could move in with his grandparents.

Then he would be able to go to the same school as Peter Parker. He could come visit his parents every weekend.ย 

"Yes, this is what I want. This should also allow me to come into contact with stronger heroes faster, such as the Hulk, Thor, and maybe Hyperion once he arrives on our world."

Hyperion was currently in his dimension, but it would collapse with him being the only one to escape. He would then join the Avengers as a replacement for the Hulk. The Hulk would also be kicked out of the Avengers because they were worried about his uncontrollable rage.

"There's also The Sentry and Blue Marvel!" Gan was practically drooling at this point. If he could replicate these powers, wouldn't he immediately become the strongest being on Earth?

Gan also saw that he could imbue objects with the powers he had replicated. If he didn't become a god-like individual with this ability, then that would be doing a disservice to the universe.ย 

"Hmm, I should ask that other Marvel chat member a question." Gan went to the chat room before clicking Jack-O-Lantern's name.ย 

There, he saw that he could send a private message to him.ย 

-Cosmic King(26): Hey, do you happen to have some Infinity Stones up for rent?- (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

There was no immediate reply, but after five minutes, Jack replied.

-Jack-O-Lantern(5): Hehe, noobie, I just so happen to have Five infinity Stones on me. ๐Ÿ˜‰ (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

-Cosmic King(26): Do you mind letting me borrow a few for a few hours? I would really appreciate it if you could.- (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

-Jack-O-Lantern(5): Ah, you must want to use these stones to save your cancer friend, right? If you're from another world, then these stones are unless; they're no different than some rock on the side of the road.- (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

-Cosmic King(26): I just want to give it a try and see if they'll work or not.- (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

-Jack-O-Lantern(5): These are powerful artifacts, so I can only trade such things once every 5 years. At most, I can only rent three infinity stones to you, but you have to sign a contract with me.- (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

Gan asked him to send the contract contents to him. After checking it, he found it to be reasonable. Gan would have to return the stones within 6 hours intact, or he would have to pay 20 million points.ย 

This was an astronomical figure.

He also wanted Gan to do him one favor when the time came.

"One favor?" Gan frowned upon seeing this. Had Jack guessed that he was also from a Marvel world? I guess it seemed pretty obvious to some degree.ย 

-Cosmic King(26): What favor do you want from me?- (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

-Jack-O-Lantern(5): There's actually a call for help function, which can hire chat room members to help each other in dire situations. I would like you to send me a summoning help token, so I can request your help later down the line.- (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

Such tokens could be sent or bought if sold to another party. It was perfectly safe because the person accepting the request wouldn't be summoned with their true body. The chat room would clone the individual's body and send the hired individual or group over.

They were also under the protection of the Chatroom system. If you died, you wouldn't actually die, and your consciousness would be sent back to your original body.ย 

-Cosmic King(26): Alright, I can do that, but my current strength is very weak.- (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

Gan checked his Token and saw that it was the color white.

๐‚๐จ๐ฌ๐ฆ๐ข๐œ ๐Š๐ข๐ง๐  ๐“๐จ๐ค๐ž๐งย 

Grade: White / Common

Description: This Token can be used to request help from the Chat member (Cosmic King). This Token can only be used if the user is actually in a life-threatening or dire situation.

Gan had seen this before, but didn't plan on giving such a thing to anyone as weak as he was. Indeed, the Token scaled off the strength of the user, showing that Gan had no strength.

-Jack-O-Lantern(5): I left three spaces open, so you can tell me what Infinity Stones you want. I can only rent three stones to you, so write them down. The Infinity Stones I currently have are the Reality Stone, Power Stone, Mind Stone, Space Stone, and the Time Stone. Note...I only own two of these stones, which are the Space and Power Stones. As for the others, they have to be returned by the six-hour mark all the same.- (๐Ÿ’ฌ)

Gan saw his options and was naturally elated. He first wrote down the Reality Stone, which was the main stone he wanted.ย 

"What should the last two be?" Gan smiled. He was extremely excited and hoped this experiment would work.ย
