American comics: Incredible comprehension, hand-crafted forbidden spells

Downtown Kathmandu.

Yellow sand swirled in the air, and a massive cross-shaped warship loomed overhead, obscuring the sun.

Lin Jie, Wang, and Mo Du stood side by side on the deserted street, looking at the guy in front of them who wore a pale mask and dressed like an alien non-mainstream person.

Hearing the alien speak fluent Earth language, Lin Jie couldn't help but turn to look at Wang with a curious expression.

"Good heavens, Senior Brother Wang, do aliens nowadays come with simultaneous interpreters when they invade Earth? He speaks Earth language so fluently."

Wang frowned and answered seriously, "It's quite normal for a cosmic being of this level to master multiple languages ​​for communication."

Mordo, standing nearby, couldn't help but chime in, "Don't make a fuss. Didn't you provoke Dormammu before, and he was roaring in human language?"

Lin Jie scratched his head: "That makes sense."

The three of them started chatting as if no one else was around.

They completely ignored the menacing alien leader on the other side.

Malekith stood there, his face beneath the pale mask looking extremely grim.

He's here to steal the artifact!

They've come to destroy the world!

These three Earth mages weren't afraid at all; instead, they started holding a secret meeting right in front of him?!

"Enough!" Malekith roared, a hoarse, unpleasant sound like two pieces of broken wood rubbing against each other. "I suggest you give me the most basic respect! I am not some nobody; I am Malekith, the ruler of the dark world!"

He emphasized the words "Lord of the Dark World" in an attempt to intimidate these ignorant Earthlings with his noble status.

However, the effect was the opposite.

Lin Jie turned his head, looking at Wang with a puzzled expression: "Spicy Shredded Chicken? Why would aliens name a dish? I used to know a gamer who called himself Spicy Hot Pot, are they related?"

Wang shook his head, looking serious: "I've never heard of Spicy Shredded Chicken. But I do know about the Dark World; it's one of the nine realms of the gods, and theoretically it should be under the jurisdiction of Odin, the king of Asgard."

Upon hearing this, Mordo immediately perked up: "Under Odin's jurisdiction? Then what is this Spicy Hot Pot doing on Earth? What did he just ask Lin Jie to hand over?"

The three of them started a new round of discussion.

Malekith's defenses were completely breached.

"Shut up! You bunch of stupid ants!"

Malekith trembled with rage. "I'm not called Spicy Hot Pot! I'm called Spicy Shredded Chicken... Pshaw! My name is Malekith!!!"

He felt that if he continued chatting with these three clowns, it would be too late.

Before he could even get his hands on the Ether, he was so angry that he suffered a stroke.

Enough with the nonsense!

We must take immediate action!

In order to obtain the artifact, he didn't even go to Asgard, but led his army directly to Earth.

Because at the moment he awoke, he sensed that the entire universe was filled with the aura of ether particles.

After searching around, the aroma here on Earth is the strongest!

Malekith took a large step forward, looking down at Lin Jie with undisguised killing intent in his voice: "The celestial convergence is about to begin; the Aether has awakened us. It has chosen you as its new host. But a lowly life like yours is utterly unworthy of its power!"

He pointed a pale finger at Lin Jie: "Give it to me right now! Otherwise, I'll show you what it truly means to wish you were dead!"

Hearing these harsh words, Lin Jie and the other two finally stopped chatting.

So it turns out these aliens went to all this trouble to come to Earth in search of the Reality Stone!

Lin Jie spread his hands, looking at Malekith with an innocent expression: "Are you sure you've got the right person? I don't have any of those liquid aether particles you're talking about."

Malekith snorted coldly, thinking that Lin Jie was making excuses.

The next second, Lin Jie reached into the large pocket of his monk's robe and rummaged around for a moment, pulling out a glittering red stone.

"This is all I have."

Lin Jie tossed the stone in his hand.

Malekith's eyes, hidden beneath his mask, widened instantly.

He felt that his intelligence had been severely insulted.

You just swore there were no ether particles.

Now he's just casually pulling out a solid-state etheric particle?!

Are these Earthlings putting on a monkey show?!

"You dare to mock me?!" Malekith gritted his teeth. "It's this one you're holding! Give it to me right now!"

Lin Jie rolled his eyes and gripped the stone in his hand tightly: "I made this myself, why should I give it to you?"

"You did this yourself? That's absurd!" Malekith exclaimed as if he'd heard the biggest joke in the world. "The Aether is an artifact of the Dark Elves. When did it become your property? You're overestimating yourself!"

Before he finished speaking, Malekith suddenly raised his right hand, his five fingers forming a claw.

A powerful, invisible suction force erupted instantly.

Lin Jie was caught off guard, and the red stone in his hand was forcibly pulled away by this force and landed steadily in Malekith's palm.

"Telekinesis?!"

Mordo recognized the move at a glance and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Malekith, clutching the red stone, proudly raised his chin: "I am a powerful wizard. Such petty tricks are utterly insignificant before the dark elves."

Within the Dark Elf hierarchy, he was not only a monarch but also the most powerful wizard.

Playing with magic is a piece of cake for him.

After obtaining the red stone, Malekith no longer bothered to look at Lin Jie and the others.

He held the counterfeit "Reality Stone" in his hands, his eyes filled with greed and fanaticism.

"Finally... after thousands of years of waiting, I have finally reclaimed the power that belongs to us!"

Malekith's voice trembled with excitement.

He closed his eyes and began frantically channeling the dark energy within his body, attempting to resonate with the primordial stone and absorb its power into himself.

Although he vaguely felt that the energy of this raw stone was not as violent as the legends suggested.

But that unmistakable sense of altering reality is undeniable.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

Malekith was sweating profusely as he chanted the incantation.

However, the red stone in his hand lay quietly in his palm like an ordinary brick, without any reaction!

Forget about energy, it didn't even flash a faint light.

"How is that possible?!"

Malekith suddenly opened his eyes, staring incredulously at the stone in his hand. "Why can't I absorb its power?"

Just when he was completely baffled...

Suddenly, Lin Jie let out a helpless sigh.

"How can you be like this? I already told you this is my own stuff, but you insist on taking it."

Malekith abruptly raised his head and glared at Lin Jie.

Then, he saw a scene that made his brain freeze instantly.

Lin Jie, looking annoyed, reached into his pocket again, and then with a "whoosh".

Lin Jie pulled a handful of bright red stones directly from his pocket!

There were seven or eight of them!

Each one was exactly the same as the one Malekith was holding, exuding an alluring aura of real gemstones!

Lin Jie casually picked up one of them and waved it in front of Malekith: "I hate it when people take my things. Since you like the one you have, I'll give it to you as a souvenir. Anyway, I have a whole bunch more here."

Malekith stared intently at the large handful of "Reality Stones" in Lin Jie's hand, completely petrified.

What the hell is going on?!

A unique artifact in the universe... is this kid selling it by weight?!
