Chapter 860: Change
Hearing Malekith’s words, Lin Rui was stunned for a moment. He didn’t know what the Alfheim was, but Lin Rui quickly reacted, listening to the name of Alfheim, it should be one of the Nine Realms.
“No, I’m not from Alfheim.” So, Lin Rui shook his head and denied Malekith’s guess.
Lin Rui is from Earth and he is someone from the other Realms. However, Lin Rui will definitely not tell Malekith where he is from. Malekith may go to Earth to harm the whole world after getting the Aether.
“No? Then you can’t be from other realms, unless… you are from the universe outside the World Tree!” Hearing Lin Rui’s answer, Malekith’s eyes flashed as he seemed to have guessed something.
“Uh…” Seeing that Malekith seems to be very tangled about his identity, Lin Rui is also feeling very helpless.
However, since Malekith wanted to know so much, Lin Rui wouldn’t keep hiding it from him. So, after a little hesitation, Lin Rui answered.
“Yes, I do come from the universe outside the World Tree. My name is Peter Jason Quill, and I also go by my other nickname, Star-Lord. So, have you heard of me?” Lin Rui generously reported the origin of “himself” as he looked at Malekith.
“Star-Lord? I haven’t heard of it. Maybe you are not famous enough. The universe is still very big, and there are many people with good strength like you.” Hearing Lin Rui’s serious self-introduction, Malekith searched in his long memory and came to an answer.
During the period when Thor went back to pick up Jane Foster, Malekith actually talked with Lin Rui. Although it was all about something unimportant, the atmosphere eased a lot. If Malekith had known that few of Lin Rui’s words were true, I wonder if he would have directly shot this fine young man to death.
While they were chatting, Thor had already walked over with Jane in his arms. In addition to Thor, Frigga and the four warriors were also next to him.
“Young man, if you’re visiting the Nine Realms this time then I suggest you go home when this is over. Sooner or later, the universe will fall into permanent darkness, and if we meet again in the future, perhaps I will show you some mercy.” Malekith warned Lin Rui as he looked at Thor and others who came quickly behind him.
If Malekith can successfully leave with Aether then his plan will be more than half successful. As long as he unleashes all the power of the Aether when the Convergence starts, he would be able to devour the World Tree in a short period of time and plunge all the Nine Realms into eternal darkness.
After plunging the Nine Realms into darkness, his next goal is the vast and boundless starry sky. Since the young man in front of him is from the universe, Malekith might as well give him a warning, if he is really famous in the universe.
“Well, thank you in advance. But I have a feeling we’ll meet again soon, and not in the way you think.” Hearing Malekith’s words, Lin Rui chuckled twice and said.
Currently, it’s not clear whether Malekith can leave with the Aether but if he can really break through Asgard’s siege with the Aether then his next goal will be the Earth. Therefore, Lin Rui must return to Earth to stop his plan. Well, their next meeting will surely surprise Malekith.
After saying that, Lin Rui turned around. Behind him, Thor was already walking toward them with Jane in his arms. As for Frigga and others, in addition to not trusting Malekith, they also need to guarantee the safety of Thor and others.
“Now then, shall we start?” Seeing Thor walking forward with Jane in his arms, Malekith spoke faintly with narrowed eyes staring at the unconscious Jane Foster.
Hearing Malekith’s words, Thor and Frigga looked at each other a few times, then looked at Lin Rui again. After receiving the affirmative look from Lin Rui, Thor took another two steps forward while holding Jane.
“Let’s start!”
…
Buzzing~
A minute later, Jane Foster, who was being held by Thor, emitted a special wave of energy belonging to the Aether Particle. After Malekith’s action, Aether is finally about to be removed from Jane’s body by him.
After the wave of energy appeared, Thor and the others focused their attention on Jane and Malekith’s situation. If Malekith dares to make any unnecessary move at this time, Thor and the others will definitely kill him at any cost.
However, Lin Rui, who was also standing aside and watching all this in front of him, blinked quickly, and the expression on his face covered by the mask was also changing rapidly.
Since the energy fluctuation of the Aether Particle emanated from Jane, Lin Rui noticed a little unusual movement in the Magic Cube in his personal space.
“Damn it! I don’t need any problem with the Magic Cube at this time!” Lin Rui muttered helplessly in his heart with his brows furrowed as he continue to sense the movement of the Magic Cube in the portable space.
If there is a problem with the Magic Cube at this time, the space energy it emits will completely ignore Lin Rui’s portable space and transfer to the outside, just like it did when the Bifrost appeared before.
Lin Rui didn’t know what impact the Magic Cube’s energy would have on the current situation. After all, both the Magic Cube and the Aether Particle are Infinity Stones, so there might be some connection between them.
Huhu~
While Lin Rui was worried about the Magic Cube’s movement, the situation in front of him had changed further. As the energy fluctuations of the Aether became more and more intense, some crimson flying sand slowly floated out of Jane’s body, which are the Aether particles with no fixed form.
“This is the Aether!” Looking at the Aether Particle he extracted, the red light in Malekith’s eyes became exceptionally bright.
Then, he struck out with more strength, and the Aether Particle detached from Jane’s body faster. Looking at the situation, it would not be long before the Aether Particle could be completely stripped out by Malekith.
“Shit! The Magic Cube’s energy is going to rush out!” Although Lin Rui was also attracted by the emergence of the Aether in front of him, he now had more difficult problems to solve.
“I don’t know if the Magic Cube can be controlled by me in the portable space. If not, I’ll just have to dodge!”
