American comics: Incredible comprehension, hand-crafted forbidden spells

Inside the temple.

The green light gradually dissipated, and the chaotic flow of time around them finally subsided.

Lin Jie put away the Eye of Agamotto on his chest and exhaled a long breath.

"Master, how's my practice going?"

Lin Jie turned to look at Gu Yi, his face filled with anticipation.

Gu Yi rubbed his throbbing temples.

Just thinking about the monks frantically picking up brooms in the courtyard outside...

And then there's Thor, who was almost crippled by a spiked club in the fighting arena; she felt utterly exhausted.

"That's enough for today." Gu Yi picked up her teacup and took a sip to calm herself down. "Time magic is no small matter, and you're still not very skilled at controlling it. Don't practice today; go back and think about it carefully."

"Okay, Master."

Lin Jie nodded obediently.

The voice just fell.

Waaah—!

A piercing magical alarm suddenly blared throughout Kamar-Taj.

The walls surrounding the main hall instantly lit up with a dense array of blood-red warning runes.

The blinding red light illuminated the entire room in a crimson glow.

Lin Jie's expression changed.

This was the first time he had ever heard of an alarm of this level in all the time he had been in Kamar-Taj.

This ultimate alarm would only be sounded during a massive alien invasion during the Battle of New York.

"Master, what's going on? Have aliens attacked?"

Lin Jie quickly asked.

Gu Yi didn't speak, but closed her eyes with a solemn expression.

A faint golden light shone from between his brows.

She is using cosmic perception to detect movements around the Earth.

Deng Deng Deng!

A series of hurried footsteps approached.

Modu and the king rushed into the main hall, their foreheads covered in sweat.

"Master! Something terrible has happened!" Mordo, forgetting even to bow, reported breathlessly, "The space defense array has detected a massive alien fleet! A large group of extradimensional beings is invading Earth! And... the enemy's main force is heading straight for Kathmandu! Should we deploy all our forces at Kamar-Taj?!"

An alien army?

Heading straight to Kathmandu?

Hearing this, Lin Jie was also stunned.

With the Earth being so big, why are these aliens coming to this poor, remote place like Nepal instead of attacking bustling New York?

A few seconds later, Gu Yi slowly opened her eyes.

A rare look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she muttered softly, "That shouldn't be the case."

According to the original timeline, Malekith, the leader of this dark elf army, should have led his forces to Asgard to steal the Aether particles.

Why did it suddenly change course and come to Earth?

"Master, what shouldn't be done?"

"Modu stamped his feet in frustration, "The enemy is about to reach our doorstep!"

Wang Ye clenched his fists tightly, ready to fight to the death.

Gu Yi glanced at Lin Jie, his gaze lingering on the large pockets of his monk's robe for two seconds.

In an instant, the Ancient One understood everything.

This kid had a dozen or so "Reality Stones" that he had hand-rubbed himself in his pocket.

The energy fluctuations emanating from this pile of counterfeit goods were so strong that they directly attracted the original product!

What a troublemaker!

This apprentice is a real troublemaker!

Gu Yi rolled her eyes at Lin Jie, then turned to Mordo and Wang, her tone indifferent: "No need for everyone to go, it's fine."

"Is it alright?"

Modu and Wang Da stared at each other.

The alarms have gone off!

Their fleet is practically overhead!

You call this harmless?!

"Lin Jie." Gu Yi shook her small fan again, pointed at Lin Jie, and said, "You caused this trouble yourself, so you have to deal with it."

Lin Jie pointed to his nose, his eyes wide: "Me? Go and take on an entire alien fleet all by himself? Master, you overestimate me!"

Although Lin Jie has a long mana bar and many skills, it doesn't sound very reliable for him to fight an entire army by himself.

What if we get bombarded by enemy interstellar warships?

"Don't worry, I'll find you some help." Gu Yi smiled, waved his folding fan, and pointed to the two people beside him, "Wang, Mordo, you two go with Junior Brother."

Modu: "..."

king:"......"

No, how many alien cannons could the two of us combined withstand?

Master, are you sending us to be cannon fodder?!

"Master, what if we can't win?"

Lin Jie still felt a little uneasy.

"I'll be watching from behind. This is a rare opportunity for real-world practice, go for it."

Gu Yi didn't give the three a chance to refuse, and suddenly slashed her hand in mid-air.

Whoosh!

A massive golden portal swallowed the three of them whole.

The next second, the three of them suddenly appeared on a street in the center of Kathmandu.

The once bustling streets are now deserted.

Ordinary citizens had long since fled in terror, frightened by the piercing air raid sirens.

A fierce wind howled, whipping up clouds of yellow sand.

The three of them looked up and gasped in shock.

The clouds overhead were forcibly torn apart.

A colossal spaceship shaped like a giant black cross hovered silently above the city.

The warship was so large it resembled a mountain, blocking out the sunlight from half the city and creating an oppressive atmosphere that made it hard to breathe.

Wang swallowed hard, his voice trembling, "Senior Brother, there are definitely a lot of them on the other side. How many do you think you can take on?"

Modu gripped the demon-slaying staff tightly, gritting his teeth as he said, "If I fight with all my might, I estimate I can take on ten."

Wang turned to look at Lin Jie, swallowing hard. "Junior Brother, you know the art of creating clones, you should be able to take on a hundred of them, right?"

Lin Jie stared at the dark mass of warships in the sky, speechless. "Senior brother, do you really think those giant warships only carry a hundred people?"

Modu said with a bitter face, "I estimate... tens of thousands."

It’s over.

Three people against ten thousand. How can that be played?

Just then.

Om-!

A blinding blue beam of light suddenly appeared at the bottom of the massive warship in the sky.

The beam of light shone straight onto the open ground ten meters in front of Lin Jie and his two companions.

The light dissipated.

A tall, pale-skinned figure appeared in the yellow sand.

The man was dressed in strange, jet-black armor, and wore a pale, eerie mask that revealed only a pair of empty, cold eyes.

Malekith, leader of the Dark Elves!

Malekith completely ignored the king and Mordo beside him.

His gaze was fixed on Lin Jie's pocket, his eyes filled with a frenzied greed.

right here!

Dozens of pure etheric particle energies emanate from here!

"Children of the Earth".

Malekith made a hoarse, unpleasant sound, like two pieces of broken wood rubbing against each other.

He slowly extended his pale hand, pointing at Lin Jie, his tone filled with contempt: "What you carry is beyond the control of a lowly being like you. Hand it over now, and I might consider letting you die a quick death."
