Aaron already possessed enhancement abilities, capable of using his own energy and the power of the World Tree to permanently bless others.
After obtaining Galactus's power, this ability of his was further enhanced. He could mass-produce subordinates similar to Galactus's Heralds.
Furthermore, he could revoke this ability at any time.
Lilith obediently closed her eyes.
The moment the ball of light merged into her body, it transformed and enhanced her abilities at an astonishing speed.
At the same time, Aaron bestowed upon Lilith the characteristics of the Original Vampire, Varnae.
Lilith's power increased a hundredfold in an extremely short period. Moreover, she now controlled the power of the Cosmic Energy.
This was a mandatory ability mastered by every Herald of Galactus.
Silver Surfer, for instance, uses his surfboard to harness the Cosmic Energy.
This is a powerful cosmic energy, and also the source of Galactus's power.
However, Lilith was not like the Silver Surfer. She did not lose her memory, sense of good and evil, conscience, or morals, nor did her entire body turn silver.
She still retained her current body. Although she did not possess the powerful cosmic metal defense of the Silver Surfer, she similarly gained the ability to traverse the Universe freely without needing to eat or sleep.
She could also deploy Cosmic Energy at any time, enter Hyperspace instantly, and move quickly at Superluminal speeds.
"My current power... I feel like I could destroy this place with one punch."
Lilith felt her whole body swelling with power. Aaron's power was simply too vast. She couldn't contain it, absolutely couldn't contain it.
"Don't just feel it, the power you have now can easily destroy this entire area. Now, you can go and do what you want."
Aaron patted Lilith's shoulder. The latter pursed her lips and nodded heavily.
She immediately transformed into black smoke and disappeared into the air.
Watching Lilith leave, Aaron immediately turned toward the Baxter Building.
When Aaron arrived, Reed and the others were still studying the machine.
Magik and Luna were also here.
Besides them, there were also Peni and Spider-Zero, among others.
Almost everyone was gathered together, discussing and researching, only Stephen was lost in confusion. To this day, he still didn't know where the Sanctum Sanctorum had gone.
"You still haven't fixed the time rifts?" Aaron walked in, immediately drawing everyone's attention.
Peni jumped up happily, came to Aaron's side, hugged his arm, and affectionately said, "Onii-chan."
Seeing this, Luna ran over and hugged Aaron's other arm. "Oppa."
Magik nodded toward Aaron, while Doreen looked left and right, saw there was no space for her, and simply lunged forward.
In the blink of an eye, Aaron had three people hanging off him.
Seeing this, the others couldn't help but grind their teeth in envy.
Everyone was fighting to save the world, so how did you end up becoming the hero and winning the affection of all the beautiful women?
Reed sighed.
Comparing oneself to others is simply infuriating.
Fortunately, he only pursues truth and praises the God of All Machines.
"The current situation is very bad. The time storm created by Dr. Doom has ripped apart the spacetime of several Universes."
"Although he has been dealt with, these time rifts still exist and constantly threaten various Universes."
"We must collect all the Chronoviums to possibly fill the rifts."
"But right now, we haven't collected all the Chronoviums, and the largest one is currently missing."
Spider-Zero took over the conversation, "I think we should follow my method, it saves more effort and trouble."
She-Hulk shook her head without thinking. "That's impossible. Your method is far too radical. We won't allow you to do that to our world."
Spider-Zero spread her hands. "Fine, then I'll watch how you solve it."
"Don't forget, the Chronoviums are lost across different worlds, and some might have already been 'consumed'."
Reed frowned. "I think the best way is still to restart time. As long as we send time back to the past, everything will be easily solved."
Reed hadn't forgotten his time restart plan.
Aaron shook his head. "Do you know that your method would only create a parallel Universe, not truly save this world?"
Reed was stunned, he truly hadn't considered that point. If that were the case, his idea would just be an act of evasion. It would be useless for the current situation.
"Perhaps I can research how to genuinely reverse our time."
Reed pondered deeply, starting once again to utilize his brilliant mind.
Faintly, Reed's brain seemed to be stretching.
At this moment, Black Panther, who had been marginalized and failed right at the start, spoke up, "Everyone, I think you might be overlooking one thing."
"Besides Dr. Doom from the 2024 Universe, Dr. Doom from the 20999 Universe might also have participated in this time storm conflict."
"I have evidence that the 2099 Universe also experienced an outbreak of abnormal data of the same scale a few months ago."
"The mastermind of this incident... there is still one person at large."
Black Panther looked at Aaron, knowing that Aaron was the most important person.
However, Aaron was not surprised upon hearing this, acting as if he had expected it all along.
Black Panther was slightly surprised, but also confused.
Don't you have anything to say?
That's the mastermind of this entire incident!
"Why are you looking at me? Aren't you the King of Wakanda? Can't a dignified Cosmic Empire handle a mere regional dictator on Earth?" Aaron felt bewildered.
What does that have to do with him?
Is he expecting him to go to the 2099 Universe to deal with Doom?
Why should he?
A huge question mark appeared above Black Panther's head.
Aren't you the savior?
How can you say something so detached?
When Reed and the others heard this, although their expressions were solemn, they didn't show much reaction.
After all, they weren't people from the 2099 Universe. They hadn't even sorted out the troubles in their own Universe, how could they spare the time to solve the 2099 trouble?
Black Panther was speechless. So, I'm the only one panicking here?
"If you need help, I can lend a hand anytime." Winter Soldier, who had received help from Wakanda, spoke up.
He had previously tried to infiltrate a Hydra Base, but was instead captured by them and underwent a series of modifications and his arm turned into uncontrollable tentacles.
Finally, Shuri, the chief scientist of Wakanda, treated him.
Both publicly and privately, he was willing to help Wakanda.
Black Panther was moved. Finally, someone spoke up for him.
However, Winter Soldier was the first, and the only one.
Reed couldn't stand it and explained, "Our biggest problem now is how to deal with the time storm."
"Dr. Doom can be dealt with at any time, but the damaged Universes cannot be delayed any further."
Black Panther nodded helplessly.
Aaron then looked at Stephen. "I suggest you try using the Time Stone to repair time."
Stephen snapped out of his daze. "The Time Stone? It's gone."
Black Panther explained, "According to the information we currently have, the Time Stones in the few integrated Universes have all been consumed."
"Unless we can get another Time Stone... but that is clearly impossible."
Black Panther and Reed both shook their heads simultaneously.
"Impossible? No, it's not necessarily impossible. What if an Infinity Stone truly delivers itself right to our door?" Aaron looked thoughtful.
He had originally been thinking about whether he could get a Soul Stone for free. Now it seemed that getting it for free was unlikely, but he could try to make the Soul Stone deliver itself to his door.
Aaron secretly used [Probability Manipulation],and [Confidence Empowerment].
He increased the energy input, silently recited his demand in his heart and firmly believed that he could get what he wished for.
