Chapter 139

~7 min read 1,212 words

(I added a segment to the previous chapter; those who feel this chapter doesn't connect can take another look at the previous one)

"The Nine Realms are actually nine planets located throughout the universe, connected by cosmic nebulae......"

Selvig introduced the Nine Realms to Gwen in detail again, "And our Earth is located in Midgard......"

"Then where is the alignment point you mentioned?"

After listening to Selvig's introduction, Gwen took a world map and spread it out.

"Follow the road signs."

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on Selvig's face; he took a red marker and a ruler and began drawing on the map———

"The alignment also happened thousands of years ago, and the ancients witnessed it with their own eyes, those amazing ancient engineering projects———"

"The Maya."

"The Ancient Egyptians."

"The Congo people."

He drew several red lines horizontally, diagonally, and vertically on the map, ".....all utilized the impact of the alignment on gravity. This is our map."

"Stonehenge...."

"Mount Snowdon....."

"Great Orme Headland....."

"Using them as coordinates, we can find....."

Selvig finally pointed to the intersection of several red lines: "Here."

Gwen saw the name on the map clearly———

"Greenwich?"

Whoosh whoosh! Bang!

The hammer, wrapped in thunder, smashed Algrim away.

Thor commanded Sif and the others: "I'll deal with it, you guys provide cover from the side!"

Sif: "Can you handle it?"

"Wait!"

Hogun suddenly pointed at Algrim and said: "Look at it!"

"Hmm?"

The group cast their gaze over———

"ROAR!!"

They saw the Cursed Warrior roaring in pain, kneeling on the ground, with cracks emitting red light appearing all over its body. Fragments of the Reality Stone's power were being pulled out bit by bit, turning into wisps of flowing ribbons and drifting in one direction......

Thor and the others followed this direction and saw these red fragments, the size of fine dust, converging on the black ring on Ye Li's wrist, being absorbed by a red gemstone.

"Ugh ah!!"

After the absorption was complete, Algrim let out a miserable cry and collapsed weakly into the rain......

Having been forcibly stripped of the Reality Stone's power, it was already on the verge of death.

"What is going on here?"

Thor walked over to Ye Li with Sif and the others and asked: "Is that new Earth technology on your hand? Did you create that monster?"

"I wish I could build a few to play with."

Ye Li bypassed them and walked through the rain to the Cursed Warrior; the raindrops didn't touch him at all.

"Hey! Be careful!"

Volstagg the bearded shouted a reminder: "It's still alive, it's dangerous!"

Having had his neck pinched, he still had lingering fears about Algrim......

Sif asked further: "What exactly is it?"

"Didn't you already have your guesses?"

Ye Li half-squatted down, teleported away Algrim, who had only a remnant of life left, and explained to Thor and the others——

"Dark Elf, Cursed Warrior."

"Impossible!"

Fandral waved his hand: "That's absolutely impossible!"

Volstagg nodded in agreement: "That's right! Ancestor Bor was invincible! He wiped out those things in the darkness long ago!"

Thor and Sif also looked incredulous, only Hogun was lost in thought......

Beep———

Just then.

Ye Li received a call from Gwen.

Gwen: [Li, something happened on my end, I thought about it..... I should tell you, you're so smart, you must have some insights]

Ye Li: [Hmm? What is it?]

Gwen: [It's what Selvig told me, that Dr. Selvig you mentioned to me, he told me about the alignment of the nine stars...... the celestial alignment point is in Greenwich......]

After listening to the little Spider-Woman recount the matter.

Ye Li realized she had coincidentally met Selvig and learned about the boundary of the Nine Realms, so he said: [I've encountered some things here too, which have a bit to do with your side...... How about we meet up in Greenwich?]

Since the Dark Elf legion led by Malekith was coming for the Reality Stone in his hand, it would be better to meet them in Greenwich.

At the celestial alignment point, the boundaries of the Nine Realms would almost disappear, physical laws would be completely chaotic, gravity would fluctuate, space would be compressed, and the real world would be shattered there. This would greatly amplify the power of the Reality Stone and the Space Stone......

Ye Li wasn't like Jane; he knew how to use the power of the Infinity Stones.

[Meet up in Greenwich?]

Gwen asked worriedly: [Li, what happened on your end? It won't be dangerous, will it? Do you need me to rush over?]

[It's fine~]

Ye Li reassured her: [Don't forget, your man is a mage now...... By the way, I remember this guy Selvig has a habit of streaking now, be careful, you can use the Mind Scepter I left at home to treat his psychological problems]

Gwen: [Huh? But I don't really know how to use it]

[Just try a few more times]

Beep———

Gwen hung up the phone and looked at Selvig in front of her with a strange expression.....

She didn't expect that this doctor, who looked so knowledgeable, had such a bizarre hobby.....

Sure enough, there are many weirdos among research doctors.....

Selvig saw Ghost-Spider staring at him with her mask's eyes and asked strangely: "Is there any other problem?"

"Uh.... no."

The girl: "Doctor, wait a moment, I'm going back to get something......"

"If you don't believe me, how about we make a bet?"

After finishing his call with Gwen, Ye Li turned to Thor and the others: "If I prove that the Dark Elves do indeed exist, how about you let me pick one item from Odin's vault in Asgard?"

Sif: "A bet?"

Fandral: "A bet sounds good~"

Volstagg: "Indeed sounds good~"

These were two gamblers.

"This...."

Thor hesitated: "I can't make the call on the vault.... I have to ask my father."

Fandral whispered: "Didn't you take a sword last time?"

"Hey! That time was because I couldn't find Eitri, so I....."

Thor argued: "Only that one time, there won't be a second time!"

Hogun, who was relatively quiet, suddenly popped out a sentence: "Once there is a first time, there will be countless times. Desire is like an endless Rising Rising Tide...."

Thor: "??.... What are you talking about, Hogun."

"Oh, I...."

Hogun was also a bit confused; why did he suddenly blurt out such a sentence.....?

He didn't notice———

The golden gemstone on the black ring on Ye Li's wrist flashed and vanished slightly......

"Hey!"

Fandral asked Ye Li: "Since it's a bet, what happens if you lose?"

Volstagg: "That's right, that's right, you have to have a stake too, right?"

"Heh, think about it....."

Ye Li walked in the rain, heading back to the house, while trying to hoodwink Thor and the others: "The Dark Elves are a great enemy of Asgard. If I prove that the Dark Elves haven't been wiped out, it's also a warning for Asgard. The safety of Asgard is worth exchanging for one treasure, isn't it? And if the Dark Elves have indeed perished, you haven't lost anything, so what else do you want me to put up?"

"Huh?"

Thor and the others were hoodwinked: "That actually makes some sense....."
