Chapter 218: The Battle of the Realms: The Beginning
Asgard.
Asgard.
Odin not only got the [High-Dimensional Space Core Device] he needed, but also a very interesting bill.
"So, you went to the Atrium and blew up Luke's house?" Odin's expression couldn't tell whether he was angry or not, he just stared at his second son thoughtfully with his one-eyed eyes, his tone and eyes, as if he was a little surprised that his second son could still do such a thing.
"It's not Loki's fault, he's just trying to get rid of the dark warrior who was sent by Malekith to spy on him." Thor explained to his brother from the side.
"I didn't expect this to happen." Loki now looks like a child who has faced his parents after a disaster. After all, he has been more obedient and sensible than Thor since he was a child, and he knows how to please adults, and he has taken his own out of many things very well, so that his honest and sturdy brother can fight against the pot.
But since he came into contact with the atrium, he seems to be unable to shake off the pot. Because there is no one around to help him carry the blame.
"Of course you didn't expect this to happen." Odin paused for the Gungnir he was holding, "I'm just surprised you have this thought. ”
Loki smiled awkwardly, he couldn't figure out what Odin was thinking. Angry, right? It doesn't seem like it, don't you get angry, right? That doesn't seem to be either.
"And this bill?" Thor still loves his brother, seeing Loki standing tremblingly and not daring to speak, Odin was also silent with him, and the atmosphere on the field was a little solemn for a while. Now he could only pray that his queen mother would come and save them soon. It's like what their own queen mother did after they got into trouble in the past.
Although they were carried directly to the Asgard Palace by Odin after they came, it was too late to inform the queen mother. But as the god queen of Asgard, Frigga naturally had a way to know the return of her two sons. Anyway, out of his knowledge of the Queen Mother, Thor thought she would have come.
"You've brought it all, what else can I do?" Odin shook the bill in his hand, looking helpless. Do you want him to go to the atrium to bargain with Luke for this little thing? He can't afford to lose this man!
He naturally knew that it would be difficult for his second son to destroy Luke's family, and it was not like he hadn't been to Silent City! That's where Luke's real heart is. What kind of Hebleen in the atrium, as long as he wants, he can build as much as he wants.
So Loki's results are gratifying, but Luke's smooth sailing is definitely indispensable. After the other party learned about Loki's plan, he may have already begun to prepare this bill.
Enough affordability, coupled with the current supply-demand conversion relationship, will cut a little flesh and blood from Asgard without arousing his strong disgust.
Odin really didn't care about the things on the order. As the Lord of the Nine Realms, when he conquered the Nine Realms and the Universe in the past, he didn't know how many enemies he had taken their treasures from. The dazzling treasure trove of Odin, and the fact that Asgard has been able to prosper to this day, have contributed to the victorious wars at the beginning.
If a mortal in the atrium dared to hand him this order, even if this mortal was the king of a certain country, it would either be ignored by Odin, or it would be a thunderous light.
But if it's Luke or the Ancient One who submits the order, then Odin can think about it calmly.
"Let's restore the Rainbow Bridge first." Odin didn't care about the bill, all he cared about was Luke's attitude. The other party is willing to form an alliance with him in this war. While this alliance-free alliance is not strong, it is the best outcome so far. If Luke really said that he wanted to give up everything and stand on his side, Odin would be a little suspicious.
In particular, winning over Luke is equivalent to winning over half of the Supreme Mages. At least in this matter, the ancient one will not jump into the camp of the dark elves on the opposite side, even if he does not get involved.
Maybe this time we can reverse the twilight of the gods?
Yes.
The reason why Odin was pessimistic about this war, which had not yet reached the final battle, and even lowered his son to send his son to the atrium to find reinforcements, was because he regarded this decisive battle as the prophesied Ragnarok that was destined to happen.
……
Somewhere inside the space debris wandering in the Nine Realms.
The interior of a dimly lit cave.
In the crack of the boulder in the center of the cavern, a cloud of red light flickered faintly like a candle. Around the monolith, there are a dozen dark elves with weapons, and the king they guard in the center, Malekis.
"Familiar energy! I've finally found you, Aether! Malekith closed his eyes, feeling the familiar aetheric energy that lingered around him, Furui Bubo's emotions and face, and couldn't help but show a little excitement at the last step.
Odin used the space debris created by the Space Gem and used its power to suppress the energy of the Aether and cut off the connection with the Dark Elves. But in the case of the Nine Realms and the Nine Stars in the Nine Realms, and the seal was loosened, it was still found by Malekith following that connection.
This is the forty-first space debris searched.
Malekith recited an ancient elven language, activating the aether particles that were close at hand.
The aether particle is made of the cosmic primordial stone, which is extremely rare and rare in a certain universe and has great power inside, and is the highest masterpiece of dark elf technology. The entire Nine Realms can be compared to him, and in his cognition, only the rainbow bridge created by Odin using the space gem in his hand.
The Dark Elves have made solid cosmic primordial stones into fluids, and matching the Dark Elves' physique, can raise the upper limit of their power, creating a dark army with great power that can sweep across the entire universe.
It is precisely because of the aether particle in their hands that the dark elves are able to compete with Asgard for the dominance of the Nine Realms.
The ancient elven language he was reciting at the moment was the switch spell that activated and awakened the aether particles, and he was responding to the call of the aether particles and activating the energy of the other party.
The dim cave began to alternate between light and dark, and the aether particles in the boulder cracks expanded and contracted as if breathing. Eventually, the already much weaker sealing boulder was washed away by the energy of the aether particles, and wisps of fluid seeped out of the hole, and reunited in front of him with the gesture of Malekith. Eventually, after all the aether particles within the boulder seeped out, a red fluid with an enchanting halo appeared in front of Malekith and began to seep into his body.
Parasitic!
This is the function that the Dark Elves give to the aether particles. It can parasitize the body of any intelligent creature and give this creature great powers. But first, the creature has to be physically strong enough and have a certain adaptability!
Among them, the life of the Nine Realms is the life with the highest adaptability to the ether particles! And the dark elves who created it are the best of the fits. And only the king of the dark elves knows how to fully control the energy of the aether particles and use it.
Feeling the majestic and powerful energy flowing back in his body that had dried up for thousands of years, Malekith closed his eyes in intoxication. It had been a long time since he had experienced such a feeling of strength within his body.
The Asgardians are fond of stripping their kings of their source of power and taking away their artifacts. What can be treasured is stored in Odin's treasury. If it is too dangerous, it will be sealed and banished by various methods. But now, he has completely reclaimed his source of power.
He no longer needed to worry that his aether power would be depleted by frequent battles, and of course, he didn't need to hide anymore, always avoiding going toe-to-toe with Odin in his prime.
It seems that the Dark Warrior and Loki played their part well, helping him attract Odin's attention. Then then, it's time for a total war!
Malekith opened his eyes, glanced at the cavern, which had lost its aether light and had become dark again, and left with his hands without looking back.
