Chapter: 210

The new cells that appeared after the genetic lock was unlocked were different from the past in that, in addition to becoming stronger and more resilient, these cells were able to absorb and store dark energy and utilize it. This was due to the emergence of a new organelle within them.

Just like how mitochondria in cells play a role in aerobic respiration, producing energy for various cellular activities, this new organelle was similar. It continuously drew dark energy from the surrounding space, storing and transforming it.

Mark referred to this new organelle as the Magic Factor. In advanced civilizations like Asgard, where the methods of utilizing dark energy had long been mastered, almost all newly born life forms possessed the Magic Factor within their bodies.

However, the concentration of the Magic Factor varied among different bloodlines and races, which manifested as differences in innate talents during their growth.

The more concentrated the Magic Factor in an individual, the more outstanding their magical talent or personal strength would be. On the other hand, individuals with a lower concentration of the Magic Factor often needed to put in several times the effort to achieve a similar level.

Of course, this gap in talent was not insurmountable. With time and effort, the concentration of the Magic Factor could be increased through absorption and strengthening of magical energy.

However, for individuals who chose to enhance their physical strength to surpass their own life level, time was the most precious commodity. Moreover, there might be people who were not only talented but also worked harder than you, making the efforts of those with mediocre talents a bitter consolation.

Even the most outstanding beings in Asgardian history could not have every cell in their body contain the Magic Factor like Mark did at this moment.

This is where the power of wisdom and technology lies. Even if one initially lags behind at the starting line, they can still take alternative routes to overtake and regain victory. It truly reflects the timeless saying, "Knowledge changes destiny."

If humans could develop more advanced technology to record and display the process of Mark's body absorbing dark energy, people would be able to see a vacuum vortex, similar to a funnel, rapidly devouring all the dark energy in the surrounding space.

Every new cell in Mark's body, like a long-awaited rainfall after a drought, absorbed energy with all its might and swiftly digested it to complete its own reinforcement.

However, this process would not last for too long. Currently, Mark's body was like a newly constructed pond. At the beginning, when the floodgates were opened, the water level rose rapidly. But once the pond was filled, even if more water flowed in, it could only overflow and could not increase the capacity any further.

To continue growing and expanding cell capacity, Mark needed to continuously consume and recover, strengthening the cell's bearing capacity. Eventually, quantity would lead to a qualitative transformation, successfully advancing his physical life level.

The dark energy absorbed and stored within Mark's cells not only gradually increased the cell's bearing capacity, strengthening it, but it could also be utilized, just like Thor using weapons made of Uru metal with runic symbols engraved on them as a medium to unleash powerful magical attacks.

Of course, if Mark could unlock the secret of performing magic without relying on artifacts and incantations like Frigga and Loki, or learn the Vishanti's legacy from the Kamar-Taj, he could also more flexibly and versatilely utilize the magic within his body.

"Baymax, display the data results you just monitored. I need to complete a quantitative comparison."

"Understood, Master!"

Hum—

The holographic projection activated, and during Mark's process of absorbing dark energy from space, Baymax controlled the quantum field generator, as well as all the sensors and monitoring devices in the laboratory, collecting all relevant data.

Looking at the neatly arranged data presented before him after being organized by Baymax, Mark furrowed his brow at the beginning, seemingly encountering an unsolvable puzzle.

But after a while, Mark's furrowed brow relaxed, and an increasingly excited expression appeared on his face.

"Indeed, just as I suspected. My guess was correct. This is the largest ultimate network in the entire universe, the ultimate form in which quantum life can exist. Its mysteries are contained within this endless void!"

Mark danced with excitement, seemingly celebrating the validation of his speculation and reveling in the awe-inspiring impact of this new discovery.

"Since the time I first encountered and studied the Aether in Asgard, I have been speculating that within this boundless universe, there must exist a network of information channels that is larger and swifter than the electromagnetic wave network. And this network is the ultimate network."

In Mark's conjecture, this network could be a quantum channel network, a gravitational wave network, or a high-dimensional network.

However, as Mark calculated and deduced these conjectures step by step, the final verification results indicated that these speculations were unfounded.

Although the quantum channel network could eliminate the time delay caused by distance, its coverage scale could not reach the level of the entire universe, making this conjecture evidently invalid.

While the gravitational wave network could achieve the required coverage range, it failed to solve the delay problem caused by distance, leading Mark to dismiss it as well.

The hypothesis of a high-dimensional network was the one closest to the correct answer, satisfying all known requirements both spatially and temporally according to high-dimensional theories.

However, during the process of dimensionality reduction and elevation, information deformation and transmission distortion would occur. Therefore, a high-dimensional network could not be the correct answer to the ultimate network Mark pursued.

It was only when Mark unlocked the genetic lock and witnessed the vector information of dark energy through informationized vision that he had a premonition that he had found the correct answer to this question.

The dark energy network could also be called the magic network, and its largest form existed as an information channel within the ubiquitous dark energy of the universe.

As dark energy served as a bridge connecting spatial dimensions and temporal dimensions, it itself transcended both. Therefore, regardless of the information being transmitted, it could disregard the barriers of space and time while ensuring the integrity and accuracy of the information.

When Mark requested Baymax to project the data and conduct checks, it was to compare whether the data obtained from the magic network could truly guarantee 100% accuracy and integrity in transmission.

And the final result proved that the magic network was truly deserving of the title of the ultimate network, with its zero-delay and zero-distortion characteristics, leaving Mark extremely excited. He couldn't control his body any longer and danced with joy.

Having gained magic perception and the ability to manipulate magic, it meant that Mark could use this vast network to send and receive data.

However, if he wanted to connect his own devices to the dark energy network, Uru metal remained an essential and indispensable medium. Since these machines and devices couldn't open a genetic lock like Mark, it would require the development of a signal converter to accomplish the transformation and interaction of information between the magic network and the electronic network.

But once Mark achieved this feat, it meant he could establish unrestricted connectivity between himself and the massive server clusters in the laboratory.

It was equivalent to constructing a cloud within the magic network, connecting his brain with all the computational and storage resources in the servers. Through this cloud, Mark could enhance his computing power and information storage capacity limitlessly, greatly assisting his research and development work.

Not only that, he could also directly upload Baymax's information into the magic network. Although Baymax had not evolved into a quantum life form, it could serve as the data steward within this network, helping Mark gain control over the entire magic network.

Of course, before all of this, Mark needed to carefully consider how to encrypt data within the magic network and how to convert binary electronic information into vector information within the magic network...
