Although Michael had learned a lot of basic knowledge of Time Magic from Kamar-Taj,
this was truly only basic knowledge!
The magic system of the Vishanti differed from Michael's self-taught magic system.
Not to mention that Michael later learned Chthon's Dark magic; learning too many things sometimes isn't a good thing.
These basic knowledge points, for Michael's comprehension of the Time Stone, couldn't be said to be entirely useless, but they were actually like chicken ribs—seemingly somewhat useful, but in reality, utterly useless!
After all, most of the Vishanti's Time Magic was based on the eye of agamotto, which was already a very mature Time Magic artifact. More often, one only needed to learn how to use it.
But Michael held the core of the eye of agamotto, the most fundamental Time Stone.
It could be said that Michael wanted to comprehend the rules of time, almost starting from scratch. Out of necessity, Michael had to expend energy, use the mutated gem, and materialize the [Elemental Time Magic Skill Encyclopedia]...
Perhaps the rules of time were indeed difficult to master, or perhaps Michael himself had a low compatibility with the rules of time.
Even though Michael directly slapped the skill book and instantly learned the [Elemental Time Magic Skill Encyclopedia], when Michael himself cast Time Magic, he always stumbled and was not as smooth as when he learned Space magic.
Of course, stumbling, lack of smoothness, etc., did not stop Michael from delving deeper into the rules of time.
Although Michael could sometimes be lazy to the extreme, when he was serious, he could drill a big hole in a bull's horn before giving up!
What's more, although Michael's comprehension of the rules of time was slow, even much slower compared to the rules of space, it could always continue.
And with the [Elemental Time Magic Skill Encyclopedia] as a foundation, Michael's understanding of the rules of time also began to grow higher and higher.
This was actually the reason why Michael had not ended his seclusion early but rather emerged directly! With visible, clear progress, who would easily stop halfway and give up?
Time quietly slipped away amidst Michael's endless insights.
Unbeknownst to him, the twelve million alien symbiotes from an unknown star system, under White's operation, were successfully 'formatted' and perfectly hosted by twelve million advanced bio-humans.
After passing through the 'Dream Superpowered Universe Warrior Incubation Facility,' Michael truly gained twelve million superpowered Universe warriors.
And with such a wealth of talent, the 'Symbiote Interstellar Mercenaries' quickly developed into the 'Symbiotic Interstellar Mercenaries'!
After a period of tempering in various star regions of the Universe, the matured 'Symbiotic Interstellar Mercenaries' began to be hired by the 'Interstellar... Group,' embarking on a grand expansion across the known Universe!
In response to each other, 'Interstellar... Group branches' became iconic star markers in almost all major star regions!
...
On this day, a clear fluctuation suddenly erupted on Steel Star, and the entire Steel Star seemed to be in some disarray.
"Beep! Unknown energy burst detected."
"Beep! Tracing the source of the energy burst."
"Beep! Analyzing energy attributes..."
"Buzz! Steel Star Central City timestamp chaotic."
"Buzz! Linking to Cosmic Star Network for correction."
"Buzz! Time is accelerating."
"Buzz! Time is flowing backward."
"Buzz! Detected regional time acceleration by ten years!"
"Buzz! Detected regional time reversal by one day!"
"Buzz! Time..."
Almost instantly, the Steel Star, which had completely transformed into a place where humans and the Machina race could coexist beautifully, suddenly erupted with countless alarms!
Almost instantly, different regions of the entire Steel Star automatically detected different time flow rates, triggering widespread alarms...
"What's going on?"
"Why is Steel Star erupting with large-scale alarms?!"
In space, on a giant comprehensive processing ship in Steel Star's original orbit, Bruce Banner, whose hair had completely turned fiery red, asked the auxiliary Transformer in front of him with a hint of panic.
Bruce Banner couldn't help but panic. No accidents could occur on Steel Star. After all, Michael was in seclusion on this heavily guarded Steel Star. If anything went wrong, it would be a huge problem!
Although so much time had passed, almost a year, and Steel Star had never had any problems, concern clouded his judgment, and Bruce Banner hadn't even considered whether this incident was caused by Michael himself.
"Report, Officer on Duty, investigation is underway!"
A'small' management auxiliary Transformer, 'crouching' in front of Bruce Banner, projected a large number of analysis screens while responding to Bruce Banner's question.
That's right, after nearly a year, Michael's faction had long since gotten on track, and everyone had found their suitable position.
And Bruce Banner had become a major leader of the 'Symbiotic Interstellar Mercenaries,' and today it was his turn to return to Steel Star to perform defensive duty...
What? White? Here he comes!
Just as the management auxiliary Transformer finished speaking, an interstellar teleportation light gate abruptly appeared in the comprehensive processing ship's duty room.
A mechanical body, similar in size to Michael and glowing with a dark luster, emerged from the light gate.
"Leader White!"
As the top superior of the Machina race, all the Transformers in the duty room greeted White immediately.
These... these were true intelligent lifeforms among the Transformers, possessing both 'soul fire' and 'life fire,' each with their own character and personality.
Of course, these guys were all absolutely loyal to Michael; this was the most fundamental, unchangeable rule!
"Steward White, you've arrived."
"Do you know what's going on?"
Bruce Banner also greeted White.
With Michael's tacit approval, White, as the second-in-command of Michael's faction, was an existence second only to one person and above billions, and even Bruce Banner and others treated White with utmost respect.
Of course, White also possessed absolute strength to convince these guys.
"Mm."
"I know."
White simply nodded in response.
