Aside from its ability to keep Dante alive in the vacuum of space, it also recycled the liquid in his body so that he would never be dehydrated and could extract the waste in his body to obtain nutrients to sustain him.
But that was just basic life preservation.
It was apparently strong enough to resist laser blasts head-on! As the latest in military tech, it had surpassed all other defenses and was now tuned to protect from the most dangerous of attacks from superpowers and the like.
Protecting from mere laser beams was child's play. Even more exaggerated was the fact that the user of the Exosuit could survive having a nuke dropped on your head.
That's right, whether it was the shockwave, the heat, or the radiation, they were all nothing to the Exosuit. All forms of kinetic and natural elemental damage were completely blocked and the majority of special energy damage like lasers, psion beams, dark matter weapons, etc were easily resisted.
Kinetic damage immunity especially meant that dropping a building on Dante was useless. Hitting him with a speeding train was useless and dropping him from high up into the ground was useless.
Dante couldn't help but breathe roughly. In his plans to conquer earth, he had mostly opted for the conservative approach, by taking over in the shadows through the underworld and then moving into the light through finance, entertainment, politics, and then the military if necessary.
However, with this, he could just take the direct route and beat everyone to death. Even if he currently didn't have the power of Bionics or Psionics, he could walk around earth unimpeded for nothing at their level of technology could even remotely threaten him with this on.
Still, even if he did have the power, he wouldn't choose that path. Dante calmed himself down and remembered his goal, as well as the reason for this.
Having this Exosuit guaranteed his safety in this powerful universe and practically deified him in his home universe, so could do what he wanted to now with a level of impunity.
Dante closed his eyes and then pictured his home universe. As for Beatrice, he simply used the AI chip to transmit that he wanted her to lower the ship's speed so that she could leave this particular coordinate of space but remain nearby.
Then, he used his Quantum Entanglement ability to return to earth with a pop, causing Beatrice's face to change greatly. Was this Dante's superpower? Teleportation he called it?
But if he could teleport... then where did he go?
...........
Dante reappeared in his apartment and felt his body stabilize. He noticed he was still connected to the Exosuit through his AI chip and this made him happy. As long as he could carry this suit back and forth, he would be good to go.
With his superior SDI and upgraded AI chip, Dante felt like the world around him had changed. He felt it in the other universe too, but that was different because well, it was hard to tell since he was not truly a native.
But here he could feel it, the heightened colors, senses, and smells. Most especially the pollution in the air that even caused him to choke up slightly as he frowned.
However, nothing could prepare him for what happened next when his AI chip automatically began scanning for a Quantum Network Hub. There was obviously none on this earth, so it searched the entire sector, which included the Milky Way, Andromeda, and a few other galaxies and nebulas.
Dante sat down on the ground with a dazed expression as this was his first time roaming the Quantum verse without a hub, so the AI chip used more brain resources to facilitate it. Coupled with the fact that there was no proper 'Etranet' here, Dante was forced to search for one.
Unfortunately for him, he did not find a universe-wide or even quadrant-wide connection, but he found little pockets of weak communications from various civilizations.
These civilizations had either mastered or were at the entry-level of Quantum Computing and communication, but they only used it to communicate within their own species and spheres of influence, ignorant of the others.
The nearest quantum species to earth was in a whole other solar system around 30,000 light years away, deeper into the center of the milky way. This didn't rule out that non-quantum civilizations like earth didn't exist on the way, but they were too weak to even make themselves known indirectly.
Dante shut down the connection and found himself sweating profusely. His brain was hot and he felt like he was having a migraine, but the AI chip soon regulated his stress and temperature to normal levels.
Dante settled down and pondered what he found out. Most of it was gibberish since the languages each race used was different, but the AI chip could translate them using a cipher from the Etranet if Dante went back.
For the meantime, he was done here and had to head back. As such, he naturally pictured himself returning to the Eternal universe and felt himself sucked into that familiar long tunnel.
Only that this time, he felt like there was a branch in the tunnel. Two exits were placed in front of him, one that led to the dead of space and one that led to the spot he stood within The Inferno's Observation Deck.
Surprised, he naturally chose the second exit and felt himself pulled along that flow. When he stabilized, he was standing in front of a puzzled Beatrice who was looking him up and down like he was a monster.
"So what did you even test?" She asked with rightful confusion.
Dante paused and then sighed with relief. Naturally, the most important thing to test with a space-related power was how it regarded space. Some powers automatically distinguished between livable space and unlivable space, but some others were raw.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm If Dante had teleported back to earth while on a ship and then ported back without any safeguards, there was a chance his superpower could deposit him right in the vacuum, causing him to die.
That would be a pointless death, so it was better to test such a thing when he was safe and had someone who could rescue him like Beatrice if something went wrong.
Now that he had gotten his answer, he was quite satisfied. There was one more test he had to make, but he wasn't sure if Beatrice could do it.
"Does the Inferno have onboard space suppressors like on earth?" Dante asked solemnly.
Beatrice noticed that he did not answer her question but was not bothered. After all, she was lucky enough to win his trust regarding his superpower, and asking for more was taboo.
"Yeah, sure. The ship can do that easily and we even have various levels of it. What do you want to do?" She answered with a bored expression.
Dante sighed with relief. "Great, then I want you to set it to the highest level of suppression once more. Oh, and the ship can return to full travel speed."
"Right-o Daddy-o," Beatrice responded half-heartedly, causing Dante to glance at her askance.
He could recognize that she wasn't too happy being ordered about for something she wasn't really involved in and wasn't allowed to know, but she was too lazy to act difficult.
"I'm just testing whether I can teleport out of a space-locked area. Previously, I tested whether I would end up at the same exact coordinate I left from or whether I could appear on a different coordinate when I leave from a moving vehicle." Dante decided to reveal this to her because it didn't compromise the main secret of his ability.
Once she heard this, Beatrice was surprised, then she glanced at Dante weirdly.
"This is probably why we should get you to the Eternal Academy quickly. They have in-depth courses on superpowers and how they work, and the first thing I can tell you is that superpowers function based on higher dimensional rules and science." Beatrice shook her head.
"I mean, if a person who could control fire as a superpower had to be afraid of the heat of his attack, the kinetic force of launching it, and the physics of flame generation, why would we treat superpowers with such respect? We'd classify them as hazards and people like you would be pitied." Beatrice stated as she folded her arms.
Dante heard this and felt a chill in his heart. His mind was on something different than what Beatrice said.
From a certain point of view, it was very reasonable and wise for him to test out such basic rules of his superpower.
From another point of view, wasn't he insulting the intelligence and effort of the higher dimensional lifeform that was kind enough to turn his mistake into a superpower and stabilize his existence?
