I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 412 Feel Despair, Asgard

"destiny!"

Frika remained noncommittal about the so-called fate that Erin spoke of.

However, when she learned that Loki was willing to pay a huge price to save her, an indescribable sense of relief welled up in Fricka's heart.

"Loki..."

"Mom, I'm here!"

Outside of time that Frika could not perceive, Loki whispered a response to Frika, but unfortunately, Frika herself would never hear it.

"So, are you running away from this?"

Arlin, whom Loki had deliberately pulled from the frozen time, looked at the time around her that had stopped again and asked Loki, "Now that you're here, is there anything you can't say to her yourself?"

"I wanted to, but in reality, I couldn't. My presence would only make her death more painful, 128,734 times, without exception."

Loki turned his head, his voice utterly calm, but Arryn's psychic field detected the sadness hidden beneath that calm exterior.

"That's a really heavy number."

Upon hearing the long string of numbers, Arlin shrugged, then poured himself a glass of wine from the flask beside him and handed it to Loki, saying, "So, want a drink?"

"No."

Loki glanced at Fricka before continuing to Arlin, "I came just to remind you again, and, by the way, to thank you for carrying that message for me, although the last part was a bit redundant."

After saying that, Loki paused for a moment before continuing, "By the way, be careful of the dark elves, be careful of... Malekith."

Is this a veiled reminder of Fricca's killer?

Looking at Loki, Arryn smiled faintly and said, "Of course, I know who the real enemy is."

Hearing Erin's suggestive words, Loki nodded in satisfaction: "Divination again? What a useful ability. In that case, let's prepare for battle!"

After saying that, Loki disappeared slowly from Arryn's sight, like an afterimage projected from a slideshow.

·······

And just as Loki completely disappeared.

A slight tremor suddenly came from the fairy palace beneath Erin's feet.

soon.

The maids who had been waved away by Frika quickly jogged over.

Their gorgeous gowns had long since been replaced by suits of armor that gleamed with a cold light.

Seeing the grave expressions on her maids' faces, Frika asked, "What happened, Selma?"

Among the maids, a woman wearing a sacred helmet quickly approached Frika and said, "Your Majesty, prisoners have escaped from the dungeon. Many prisoners have fled."

"Have prisoners escaped?"

Upon hearing this, Frika's expression changed.

Those prisoners who are able to, or rather qualified to be imprisoned in Asgard's dungeons, are all the most vicious criminals in the Nine Realms, some even dangerous wanderers from the depths of the universe.

If these dangerous creatures were to escape and hide in the shadows, Asgard would likely be engulfed in a bloodbath.

"Wait, Thor's girlfriend is still in the treatment room!"

Upon thinking of Jane Ford, who was still receiving treatment in the treatment room, Fricka's expression changed. She quickly turned to Selma, who was protecting her, and said, "Selma, go to the treatment room—no, I'll go by myself!"

Although she also disapproved of Thor and Jane's relationship, Frika didn't want her son to watch his beloved die in sorrow.

Seeing that Fricka actually planned to go to the treatment room in the lower level of Asgard to find the woman that Prince Thor brought from the mortal world at this dangerous time, Selma immediately sensed something was wrong and advised, "Your Majesty, according to the news from the dungeon, someone has broken through the guards' blockade and escaped from the dungeon. I think it's better if I go to the treatment room and bring the person over."

"It is precisely because someone broke through the guards' blockade that I am even more determined to go to the treatment room."

After saying this with a firm expression, Frika immediately left the palace.

Seeing that they couldn't dissuade him, Selma and the others exchanged glances, then each grabbed their weapons and rushed out, forming four different positions to firmly guard Freda in the middle.

And after they left.

With a flash, Erin disappeared behind them without them even noticing.

·······

at the same time.

Above the coast at the edge of Asgard.

A spaceship, its movements concealed, was rapidly crossing the Rainbow Bridge and flying towards the nearby Asgard Palace.

"Um?"

Just as they approached the Rainbow Bridge.

Heimdall, who had been guarding the end of the Rainbow Bridge, seemed to have discovered something and suddenly opened his eyes.

Whoosh!

The next second, he drew the holy sword from the control panel and instantly disappeared from the spot.

When he reappeared, Heimdall had already leaped into the air, soaring for more than ten seconds. Then, holding his long sword, he thrust it into the void without hesitation.

After a sizzling sound.

A jet-black spaceship was shot down by Heimdall and crashed onto the Rainbow Bridge.

Before Heimdall could even catch his breath, several other spaceships, also coated with a transparent layer to conceal their forms, roared toward Asgard's core—the Asgardian Palace.

Although those spaceships were coated with a transparent layer invisible to the naked eye, Heimdall, with his magical eyes, still managed to detect a trace of their presence through the ripples caused by their flight.

However, given the distance between him and his opponent, he simply didn't have time to launch another attack.

"Damn it, enemy attack."

Realizing that the enemy was right under his nose, Heimdall's expression changed as he approached Asgard.

Then he quickly ran towards the control panel of the Rainbow Bridge.

That place is not only the control panel of the Rainbow Bridge, but also the switch to activate Asgard's defense system.

But just as Heimdall turned and ran towards the Rainbow Bridge...

A huge shadow suddenly blocked out the sunlight.

Immediately afterwards, amidst the roar of engines, a black warship hundreds of meters tall suddenly appeared to the side of the Rainbow Bridge.

At this moment, in the center of that pitch-black warship, a high-energy beam of light that was constantly condensing was flashing with terrifying fluctuations.

"No!"

Feeling the energy that made his heart pound, a hint of despair flashed in Heimdall's eyes.

At the same time.

On the massive black warship, Malekith, surrounded by seemingly endless darkness, looked down at the Rainbow Bridge and said coldly, "Feel despair!"

The next second, a vast, dark red energy beam shot into the sky and instantly struck the control room of the Rainbow Bridge.

Rumble!

A sound like the earth shaking erupted and instantly spread throughout Asgard.

In that instant.

Almost everyone in Asgard stopped what they were doing and looked over in shock.

Odin, who had just received the news and was about to lead a group of guards to suppress the dungeon rebellion, changed his expression drastically after seeing the huge commotion that broke out in the direction of the Rainbow Bridge.

"Send Thor to lead the men to quell the dungeon rebellion. The rest of you, follow me."

After quickly dispatching a detachment to the dungeon to help Thor suppress the rebellious prisoners, Odin led the remaining main force in a swift turn and rushed toward the end of the Rainbow Bridge.

Compared to the terrifying commotion erupting from the Rainbow Bridge, the prisoners who escaped from the Asgardian dungeon seemed insignificant at this moment.

In order to solve the bigger, more dangerous problem.

Odin did not hesitate to shift the priority of the escaped prisoners in Asgard's dungeons to the back of the list.

Of course, with Thor's current strength, Odin believed he could handle the rebellion.

·······

the other side.

Centered around the Rainbow Bridge.

The Rainbow Bridge, built with the wisdom and resources of countless Asgardians, shattered at the point of explosion, its fragments spreading in all directions like a spiderweb.

The black warship unleashed a deafening barrage of energy.

It seemed to have detonated the enormous energy stored within the Rainbow Bridge itself, instantly unleashing a devastating force.

A burst of colorful energy surged forth in all directions.

Heimdall, who was closest to the control room, was directly engulfed by the terrifying energy storm.

Even the massive warship that bombarded the Rainbow Bridge seemed not to have anticipated that its attack would trigger such a massive energy reaction.

Caught off guard, they were directly blown away by the energy storm that swept in all directions.

"Activate the shield, quickly."

Inside the dark warship, Malekith roared and then slammed his hands down on his body.

Suddenly, a torrent of dark energy surged forth from the warship, helping it withstand the repeated energy bombardments of the energy storm.

A colorful storm of power continuously rained down on the massive warship.

Every instant seemed to be filled with the explosions and flashes of countless thunderbolts, like raging lightning warriors constantly destroying everything in their path.

Under the bombardment of those energy lightning bolts, Malekith frantically released dark energy, but even he seemed unable to withstand the terrifying storm of power.

On the sturdy warship, parts kept breaking apart, and even the entire warship emitted a series of teeth-grinding sounds.

Just as Malekith's dark energy was about to be completely unable to withstand this storm of power.

A pale red energy shield suddenly appeared on the outside of the warship.

Under the relentless bombardment of the colorful energy storm, the pale red energy shield crumbled like shattered glass.

With a "crack," it was instantly annihilated in the energy storm.

However, this also shielded them from the final wave of energy impact.

After the storm of power that swept across the area dissipated.

Centered on the Rainbow Bridge control room, a semi-circular territory in the outer sea of ​​Asgard has been permanently and directly lost.

The Rainbow Bridge, considered the pride of Asgard, was mostly destroyed.

of course.

At this moment, the dark elf warship that was the instigator was not in much better shape either.

Although Malekith managed to save the warship from being directly destroyed, it was still damaged by the power storm.

Most of the spaceship's functions were also damaged.

After inspecting the ship, a masked dark elf quickly reported to Malekith: "The force field generator is burned out, more than 30% of the external armor is damaged, and 63% of the warship's defense system is damaged..."

"The Destruction Cannon has been impacted and is no longer functional..."

"The invisibility coating is damaged, and the invisibility function cannot be used properly..."

"One-third of the energy thrusters are damaged, and the warship's movement speed has been reduced..."

"The space jump system is functioning normally and can be used..."

Upon hearing that the most important space jump system was functioning normally, Malekith's eyes, which were filled with countless darkness, seemed to lose a trace of bone-chilling coldness.

Then he quickly ordered, "Leave a portion of the people behind, using the energy thrusters and cloaking coatings to the fullest extent possible. The rest of you, come with me to storm Asgard and bring back the Aether particles."

"yes!"

Under Malekith's command, several small flying vehicles quickly shot out from the huge warship and flew rapidly into the depths of Asgard.

But at the same time these aircraft took off.

Recovering from the explosion of the Rainbow Bridge, Asgard quickly launched a counterattack.

A barrage of energy beams poured forth from the towers of Asgard, quickly forming a deathly light barrier that blasted a dark elf aircraft, unable to dodge in time, into a cloud of smoke.

Followed by.

One after another, magical flying ships soared into the sky, and under the control of Asgardian warriors, they launched a fierce counterattack against the ships that dared to invade Asgard.

At the same time.

Outside the dazzling golden palace, a pale golden spherical shield quickly rose, attempting to envelop the entire palace.

As the political and power center of Asgard.

Asgard's entire defense system was built upon the foundation of the entire continent.

Once the pale golden spherical shield is fully formed, it will be impossible to defend against it unless the opponent destroys the entire Asgard or destroys the energy core of the Asgard defense system.

Otherwise, Asgard, powered by the entire continent of Asgard, would become an impregnable fortress.

The rapidly rising energy shield seemed to similarly ignite a sense of urgency in the dark elves.

The two dark elf aircraft, which had rapidly broken through to the vicinity of the Celestial Palace thanks to their superior technology and superb piloting skills, simultaneously increased their speed.

next second.

A dazzling firework lit up outside the thin, pale golden energy shield.

Although the pale golden energy shield was not yet fully formed, it easily intercepted a night elf's aircraft, without even causing a ripple on the shield.

The other Night Elf aircraft, though managing to dodge a last-minute attack and escape destruction, was not able to take off.

A beam of energy accurately blasted it into the air.
