Explosion

By the end of the shaking, Phil and Dr. Hall had already stood on the wall!

The force field of the entire space had changed completely and reversed horizontally. Everything was now on the wall.

Phil was not willing kill Dr. Hall and was trying hard to persuade him to stop the Gravitonium from self destruction and effectively killing millions of people.

The only thing that was still standing normally was Kai.

In fact, Kai also could feel the change in gravity, which was trying to force him as all other objects onto the wall. However, he motivated his mind, using his power of telekinesis to resist the change in gravity. He had formed a Telekentic Shield around his body, which allowed him to move normally albeit requiring much more efforts.

At this time Kai saw, on the left wall Phil and Dr. Hall were facing and arguing with each other while on the right side was the working gravity generator. The Gravitonium in the middle of the generator was constantly changing shape irregularly!

"Kai, think of a way to stop the machine, this thing is going to self destruct and explode, all of us and the people of Malta are going to be in danger!" Phil knowing that he couldn't persuade Dr. Hall, could only hope that Arthur can somehow turn the tide and take them pass this catastrophe.

"Affirmative!" Kai responded, and started to find a way to stop the machine. He didn't want the Generator to explode and take away his hopes of gaining Gravity manipulation.

"Why can't you understand that this for the world's good!" Dr. Hall loudly shouted and then fired his gun directly at Arthur.

But just as he shot and bullet was in the air, the surroundings started swayed violently again. This time the tremors were very strong.

Dr. Hall who was standing on the wall with his gun, fell to the ground while the bullet also missed it's mark.

Even Kai was given a violent jolt due to the tremors and lost control of the Telekinetic Shield which almost cracked. But he rushed his mind into overdrive to erect a new much sturdier Telekinetic Shield against the reversed field of gravity, to avoid being flung off on the wall.

The tremors stopped after some time, the generators did not stop. Kai frowned and thought, will the machine only stop with the sacrifice of Dr. Hall?

Originally, he still wanted to try and get Gravity Manipulation from the Gravitonium without having to sacrifice Dr Hall, but it seems that Dr Hall's fate was already sealed. So Kai used his Telekinesis to grab Coulson and then move him out of the room with the gravity generator.

"Run out of here quickly, leave this matter to me, I will find a way to stop this." Kai said while looking towards Phil.

Phil shook his head resolutely and said: "No, I can't leave you alone here!"

"It's too late now, and even if this explodes I can handle it, so go quickly and inform May to start the plane and keep it ready to takeoff!" Kai shouted loudly.

Phil frowned a bit and finally gritty dhis teeth and turned around before running off.

"It's useless, no matter what you do it's going to explode soon, it's already too late," Dr. Hall muttered.

Kai shook his head and said: "Not necessarily, Dr. Hall, this is our first time meeting, but definitely not our last time, I believe… in the future… we will have a chance to meet again."

"No… we will all die…" Dr. Hall shook his head but suddenly he saw Kai raise his hand to wave at him.

"Goodbye Dr, when we meet next time, maybe I will have to call you Graviton!"

Kai said and then gestured with his hand, at that instant, Dr. Hall felt as though he was caught by a giant invisible hand and then involuntarily flew into the gravity generator containing Gravitonium.

"Noooooo..."

Dr. Hall yelled, but he was soon swallowed up by the black gravitonium particles inside the gravity generator. At the same time, a small concentrated explosion was generated from the gravity instrument. The powerful force from it couldn't be resisted by Kai and his telekinetic shield was broken through while his body heavily smashed into the nearby wall. Even with his high durability the explosion from the gravity generator made Kai spit blood and injured his internal organs, though they had already started to heal due to his regeneration from extremis.

"Cough...cough... It seems that even I couldn't change Dr Hall's fate, he is destined to acquire gravity manipulation and become Graviton. But the day he does so, is also the day I devour his powers." Kai grinned and glanced at the gravitational generator that had stopped generating tremors. He slowly got up and walked over with a Struggle due to his injuries and looked at the gravitonium particles that had completely solidified. Kai then asked: "System, can I store this thing in my system inventory?"

"Yes."

"Then I'll take it in!"

As his voice fell, the black gravitonium particles disappeared instantly as though there was nothing in its place. He slowly started his journey back towards the plane and in between he saw Phil running towards his direction with a worried look on his face. He probably hurried over after hearing the explosion.

"Kai, are you okay?"

Phil reached over to try and support Kai by taking his arms over his shoulders.

Kai nodded his head and said: "I'm fine, but I'm afraid this mess… it can't be solved so easily!"

"No, at least we saved ourselves and millions of people!" Phil said earnestly.
