Just as the new year is entering on this side of the earth, Superman Clark is rarely taking a vacation to celebrate the arrival of 13 years with his family, and there is a desolate galaxy in the distant universe, and in this galaxy there is a withered yellow planet called Vat Alheim.

Yes, this is also one of the Nine Realms, and it was even considered the territory of Asgard before, but with the complete closure of Asgard, Watt Alheim has long been unconcerned.

However, even if Asgard is not completely closed, Watte Alheim will not attract Asgard's attention, because in Asgard's impression, Watte Alheim has long been silent, without any trace of life.

As for why it ended up in such a situation, it was naturally because of the good things Asgard did when he conquered the Nine Realms, and when he was a conqueror, Asgard was not a glorious image, especially for the conquered civilization, but conquering here can be regarded as a good deed......

At this time, the already desolate and dilapidated Vat Alheim has some life again, not because this planet that seems to have died has come back to life, but in the depths of this planet, the people who were defeated by Asgard but not killed have been awakened.

He is Malekith, the leader of the Dark Elves and once known as a powerhouse in the Nine Realms!

But unfortunately, Malekith lost, and so did the Dark Elves, who were more recalcitrant than most of the civilizations in the Nine Realms, which also made the Dark Elves almost wiped out.

Even after so many years of cultivation, the Dark Elves have not been able to develop again, and now there are only two or three big cats left, not to mention one race, even the population of a village may be above the Dark Elves!

But no one knew that the Dark Elves had a very glorious past, and this glory was not even traced back to the time when Malekith became famous in the Nine Realms, but even more in the past.

It is not only older than Asgard, but even more than the history of the earth and most of the planets, because the dark elves are a race that appeared at the beginning of the universe, and they were born from the original darkness in the universe, and they are a naturally transcendent race! The only master of the dark universe!

But unfortunately, with the development of the universe, all kinds of light have appeared in the universe, and the territory of the dark elves has become smaller and smaller.

As for why the dark elves keep being hit hard by different civilization powerhouses, it's not that the dark elves have been thinking about bringing the universe back to the era of total darkness since the light appeared in the universe?

In order to return to the darkness, the dark elves have made many attempts, including but not limited to destroying certain civilizations in the universe, destroying stars in the universe, and developing black hole weapons, hoping to swallow the entire planet in the universe into the black hole.

Stars and planets are necessary for the survival and development of most civilizations, how can those civilizations endure? Beating the dark elves is already counted......

And Asgard's invasion of Vat Alheim also took advantage of the situation, when he heard that the dark elves had found another treasure called aether particles, and used the fragments of aether particles to create a group of powerful cursed warriors, Asgard's side directly declared war, and even used a sneak attack to directly catch the dark elves off guard.

Even though the strength of the dark elves had developed well at that time, and there were still a large number of cursed warriors, they still did not succeed in resisting the sneak attack of Asgard, and in the end, only Malekith and a very small number of dark elves survived the sneak attack and hid in the shadows.

But it is obviously impossible for such a small scale of dark elves to develop and grow again, so Malekith fell into a deep sleep directly, waiting for the day when the opportunity will come, so that he can reawaken the artifact aether particles that were taken away and once belonged to the dark elf clan, and through this artifact, the entire universe will be plunged into darkness, so that the dark elf clan will return to the top!

And this aether particle is also the reality gem of one of the Infinity Stones that Robette knew from the mouth of the Obsidian Five before.

Reality Gems can ignore all realistic logic, natural laws, and scientific laws, and transform all imagination and illusion in your heart into reality!

Practice fiction is real, practice fake is true! Is it really literal to do it all!

He didn't cherish the aether particles in the hands of Malekith, he wanted to use the fragments of the aether particles to create cursed warriors and conquer the universe by force, but after that major defeat, Malekith knew that he was wrong, and he should use the ultimate power of the aether particles to achieve the ultimate goal of the dark elves plunging the whole universe into darkness!

"It's almost here, the nine realms are connected, and the distance of space is no longer an obstacle that limits us, Asgard, even if you hide the aether particle, won't I be able to find it? It's ridiculous! When the darkness of the whole universe falls, I will let you Asgard know what true despair is! After feeling it, Malekis's eyes flashed with excitement, and he said excitedly.

"Chief, do you want to wake them up?" Just when Malekith fell into the illusion of success, Coles, the deputy who had no eyesight at all, looked at Malekith blankly and asked.

"......" Malekith suddenly looked at Coles, who had awakened him, and was silent for a moment, if it weren't for the fact that there was really no one else to use, Malekith really didn't want to use Coles, a guy who didn't look very smart.

Although the Dark Elves worship darkness, they have developed a snow-white appearance because they live underground all year round, and even not only the whole body is snow-white, but also the hair and eyebrows and other body hair, and only a few individuals may have other skin tones such as black......

And the Coles in front of him is one of the very few dark elves with black skin, he not only does not seem to have the nobility of the dark elves, but even looks a little naïve, and he is not valued by Malekith at all.

But there is no way, it is good for the current dark elf clan to be used, and they are not qualified to pick and choose, and only after Malekith's plan succeeds and plunges the entire universe into darkness can he replace Coles.

"Wake them up, although there is still a little time, but it will be too late to act when the Nine Realms are connected, in case Asgard also notices the Nine Realms are connected this time and rushes to stop us, it will be a bit of trouble......" Malekith slowly shook his head after coming back to his senses, looked at the survival pod beside him and said.

"Yes, Chief." Coles quickly answered, and quickly woke up the other dark elves, looking at the only dark elves left in front of him, Malekith couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

At the beginning, the dark elves were defeated, and it was not only the clansmen who were lost, but also many technological creations, otherwise there would have been more dark elves who could survive until now.

"I have the only remaining fragment of aether to create a powerful cursed warrior, who among you would like to become a cursed warrior and give your life for the dark elves?" Looking at these remaining clansmen, Malekith sighed in his heart, but his eyes quickly became firm, and he looked at the group of dark elves and asked.

Faced with Malekith's question, all the dark elves were silent, because although the strength of the cursed warrior is strong, but it is named the word curse, it must not be so simple, even if the real source of power of the cursed warrior is the fragments of aether particles, but it will also consume the life of the dark elves!

It can be said that when you become a cursed warrior, death is already a doomed thing, and it was only by relying on the cursed warrior that Malekith and others were able to escape safely, and those cursed warriors who were lucky enough not to die in the battle eventually decayed and died, dying in front of these dark elves......

Therefore, when Malekis re-mentions the cursed warriors, all the dark elves remembered the scene when the cursed warriors decayed and died one after another.

"I'll do it!" But soon, a dark elf walked out, his eyes were full of determined light, looked at Malekith and said solemnly, "I am the most powerful one among the dark elves now, only I have the opportunity to withstand the power of the aether particle fragments, and maintain this power for a long time, they are afraid that it will be difficult to form an effective combat power in a short period of time......"

"Argorim, you will be the last cursed warrior, and when all is successful, your name will be forever remembered in the history of the dark elves!" Malekith patted Argorim on the shoulder, and didn't take out the fragments of the aether particles immediately, because now is not the time, and when the Nine Realms begin to connect, it is when the cursed warrior really needs to strike!

At this time, the Earth in another galaxy does not know what happened to Vat Alheim, because for the Earth civilization, they are completely unaware of the existence of Vat Alheim, and Vat Alheim is too far away from the Earth for any intersection between the two sides at all......

On Earth, not only Robett and Clarke, they continued the Christmas holiday and New Year's Eve, and had a good rest, even with some of the Avengers.

Although improving strength is the most important thing at the moment, a string cannot be tightened all the time, and the Avengers also have their own families, and in various sense of the festival, reuniting with their families is definitely indispensable.

This naturally includes Steve, after all, since joining the Avengers, Steve has spent less and less time with Peggy Carter, and if he is not even absent from the holidays for no reason, then Peggy Carter is afraid that he will really find another old man to square dance......

Yes, Peggy Carter in this timeline is still very healthy, can run and jump, and does not need to be bedridden, which naturally includes the help of Tony Stark and Martian Manhunter.

Even if he can't replicate the super soldier serum without defects, there is no problem in making a potion that slightly enhances the vitality of the body, which can be regarded as something that Steve has no worries about, except for the need to deal with Peggy Carter's inquiries.

At this time, Steve, Peggy Carter, and Bucky Barnes are all at home in London, yes, Bucky Barnes is also here, and even this is not the first time he has spent the holidays here, so much so that Peggy Carter is already a little used to the presence of Bucky Barnes.

After all, Bucky Barnes is the only one of their age, even if Bucky Barnes still looks very young, they are indeed a generation, and only occasionally when they go out, Bucky Barnes will be recognized by many people as the son of the two......

"Let's go out for a walk, you haven't been out with me in a long time......" Peggy Carter looked at Steve and whispered after the meal.

"I'm a little tired, I'm going to get some sleep, you guys go." Bucky Barnes said very interestingly, and took the initiative to clean up the dishes, leaving the space for the two real old people.

"I'm sorry, I'm really busy, I thought I would have my retirement and be with you, but my painting career hasn't taken off yet, and they pulled me back......" Steve looked at Peggy Carter apologetically and whispered.

"However, the earth is indeed more dangerous now, if we are gone, maybe we don't need to worry about these things anymore, but we are still alive after all, and we can still do our part......"

"I don't mean to blame you, that is, I am no longer young, otherwise I would definitely share the pressure you have now." Peggy Carter shook his head slowly, and said gently, "But if it weren't for the medicine you developed, I'm afraid I would have been lying on the hospital bed by now, where would I have the opportunity to walk in the park with you?" ”

"It's a pity that the Super Soldier Serum is not a rejuvenation drug, otherwise I wouldn't be like this......" Steve sighed lightly and whispered.

"Okay, I really want to work overtime with you, I've worked all my life, can't I enjoy it? Let's go......" Peggy Carter gave Steve a blank look, took Steve's arm and walked outside, leaving Bucky Barnes alone at home to look after the house.

"How do you feel like I'm really their son?" Watching the two go out, Bucky Barnes blinked, feeling the strange atmosphere, and complained a little speechless for a while.

"Forget it, it's rare to have such a rest, take a good rest after washing the dishes, after all, what happened this year is really no less than in previous years!"

"Spider-Man's strength has improved, and they can set up various training rooms to improve their strength, but unfortunately Steve's strength and I have been sealed, and it is difficult to reach a higher level even if we work hard......" (end of this chapter)
