Chapter 87: Did You Bring the Devil Here?
Reality gems, according to legend, can fulfill all the wishes of the holder.
It can ignore the huge gap between the unreal and the real, forcibly transform non-existent fiction into real existence, and can even transform human carbon-based flesh into silicon-based flesh, and magnetic storm coils into doughnuts.
All the laws of science and the laws of nature are meaningless in the face of real gemstones.
Of course, wanting to use this ability against the sky is definitely not gratuitous.
The Reality Gem is powerful, but it is the most difficult of all the Infinity Stones.
Each time a Reality Stone is used, the wielder will be consumed with varying amounts of life depending on how easy it is to fulfill the wish.
For Mordo, who believes in the laws of nature, the gem of reality that can distort all rules to fulfill wishes is undoubtedly a heresy among heretics, an evil thing that should not exist in the world.
Lu Xiao could notice that Mo Du was wrong, and Gu Yi naturally wouldn't miss it.
"Mordo, don't let paranoid beliefs eat up your reason, remember what I taught you in the past, you need to further temper your tolerance."
"Whew~"
Mordo took a deep breath and finally looked away from the Reality Gem.
"I see, Supreme Mage."
The aether was taken out of Jane's body, but the real problem was what to do with it next.
Kama Taj holds the Time Gem, and it is impossible for the Ancient One to let the Reality Gem stay here for long.
Asgard, which also has a strong defense system, also has space gems, which are also not suitable for keeping reality gems.
The Infinity Stones are coveted by countless beings throughout the universe, and it is impossible to keep them for a long time without being strong enough, and the Mind Gem that has now fallen into the hands of Hydra is a lesson from the past, and a proper way must be found to deal with it.
Lu Xiao hesitated for a moment before proposing, "Supreme Mage, let's give the Reality Gem to Thor for the time being and send it back to Asgard." ”
"Earth is not ready for the Dark Elf attack, and Asgard has already mobilized for war under Odin's vigilance, so I suggest waiting until the war is over to discuss what to do with the Reality Gem."
Lu Xiao's world mission is to obtain the Time Gem, and without having the Infinity Gauntlet, no one can hold two Infinity Gems at the same time, and he is destined to not be able to keep the Reality Gem.
In that case, it is better to put the reality gem in a safe place first, wait for the crisis to pass, and then slowly discuss its ownership.
Gu Yi thought about it for a moment and agreed to Lu Xiao's suggestion, and she sent the sealed reality gem to Thor.
"Son of Odin, return to Asgard as soon as possible with the Reality Gem, and when the dust settles, we will slowly discuss the disposal of the Reality Gem."
Thor is reluctant to give up on Jane, who is still unconscious, but Asgard is about to face war, and it is impossible for him to bring his girlfriend back to experience danger.
"Supreme Mage, Jane will be handed over to your care for the time being."
Gu Yi nodded: "Don't worry, I will try my best to adjust her lost vitality, she is still young, and she should recover quickly." ”
Seeing Thor being picked up by the Rainbow Bridge, the ancient one's deep eyes stared at the starry night sky.
"Lu Xiao."
"Yes."
After letting Mo Du leave first, Gu Yi left Lu Xiao alone, and after a moment of silence, he asked a little cluelessly: "Do you think that the creatures of this universe can successfully thwart Thanos's plot in the future?" ”
Thanos is commonly known as Thanos, as early as the Battle of New York, strong men including the Ancient One and Odin saw the shadow of Thanos behind the Zetarians recruited by Loki.
The existence of Thanos was also mentioned in Kama Taj's collection, but Lu Xiao didn't understand why the Ancient One suddenly asked him this question.
"This ...... It should be possible, as long as we are united, I believe that the superheroes of the Avengers will be able to complete this difficult task. ”
Gu Yi shook his head and smiled: "Perhaps, among the countless possibilities in the future, I do see a timeline that stops Thanos, the only one. ”
"But the end of this timeline is not perfect, and more than one loyal guardian of the Earth has given his life."
Gu Yi looked at Lu Xiao with blazing eyes: "You are the only existence that I can't see through, and all the future about you is a void of nothingness." ”
"From your interactions with Thor and the changes you made to the inherent development of events, it is clear that everything you have done is not contained in the timeline, perhaps...... You can change the way this world is supposed to end. ”
Lu Xiao once again felt a deep twilight from Gu Yi's words, and he asked with a serious expression, "Supreme Mage, why did you suddenly bring up this question?" This world is guarded by you and Odin, even Thanos ......"
"Hehe~"
The ancient one, who had always been breezy and calm, showed a rare free and easy smile: "Odin? The old guy's deadline was approaching, and no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't get rid of the natural law of birth, old age, sickness and death, and at most delayed it for a while. ”
"I'm the same, I've been told the end of countless timelines, and I won't survive until the day when Thanos launches an invasion."
Or ...... As long as Odin and I are alive, the hidden dangers of Thanos cannot really be solved. ”
Raising his hand and patting Lu Xiao's shoulder, Gu Yi said meaningfully: "Now is not the time, one day you will shoulder important responsibilities, before that, work hard to improve yourself, your strength is still far from my expectations." ”
……
"Jingle bell!"
Early the next morning, just as Lu Xiao was pondering the hidden meaning of the Supreme Master's words in the London Temple, the temple's alarm system suddenly sounded.
Daniel, who was sitting next to Lu Xiao reading a book on secret arts, changed his face and immediately jumped up from the ground: "What happened?" Which area of the alert? ”
"Minato-ku! Harran, who was monitoring the spatial warp point, sent a message that dozens of heavily armed dark elves suddenly rushed out of the teleportation point directly connecting Asgard and Earth! ”
As the guardian mage of the London Temple, Daniel must stay behind to guard the Temple's defensive magic array and prevent a large number of cosmic visitors from breaking through the barrier jointly constructed by the three temples and entering the earth.
As a mobile force, Lu Xiao accepted Daniel's commission and led more than a dozen mystics to open the portal and go directly to the port area.
Two small dagger-shaped ships were wreaking havoc over the harbor, and the dark elves didn't seem to have figured out the details of the Earth and launched an all-out attack on the panicked and fleeing human civilians below.
Nearly a hundred Dark Elf soldiers armed with beam guns formed a vigilant formation, and the irregular spatial doors that opened randomly when the celestial bodies converged made them unable to find their way back to the battlefield in Asgard.
"Boom!"
Just as Lu Xiao was about to step forward to negotiate with this group of dark elves and warn them to stay where they are for the time being and not to violate the territory of the earth, an unknown object suddenly fell from the sky at high speed, and crashed heavily into the dark elves' military formation before everyone could react.
The Dark Elf army was suddenly attacked, and the soldiers who were still maintaining a fighting posture reflexively attacked the nearby sand sculpture youth who were taking pictures with their mobile phones, thinking that the attack just now came from these aliens armed with "unknown weapons".
Lu Xiao looked at the "cannonball" that stood up from the ground with a shaking and drowsy head a little speechless.
"Thor, why are you again? Did you bring the devil here? ”
