Not long after Thor walked out, Lin Rui silently followed. Lin Rui is still a little worried about Thor going towards the enemy alone when it comes to negotiating with Malekith. After all, Thor is relatively weak right now. If Malekith took Thor as a hostage then they might not only be unable to save Jane but also lose a lot more.
Of course, although Lin Rui’s strength has been greatly enhanced, he also knows that he is no match for The Kursed after his brief encounter with him. However, in addition to his own strength, he has other cards, such as Magic Cube, which has been in Lin Rui’s personal space.
If it really came to a crisis then Lin Rui would use the power of the Magic Cube against Malekith even at great risk. n order to make his cards work at the last minute, Lin Rui redeemed a guide to using the Magic Cube in the System Shop.
After all, even Hydra was able to develop a lot of time-travel technology based on the Magic Cube, which means that ordinary people can use the power of the Magic Cube.
Therefore, Lin Rui directly searched for the use method of Magic Cube in the System Shop and redeemed part of the user guide within the range of Reward Points that he could bear at this time.
Anyway, Lin Rui will return to the earth after the Asgard event. If he can take the Magic Cube back with him, the user guide he redeemed can save them a lot of initial research and experiments on the Magic Cube. Therefore, Lin Rui will not lose anything.
“Jackson, I’m glad you’re here with me. This matter is completly unrelated to you. If Heimdall hadn’t teleported you too, you’d be on Earth having fun with your friends.” Thor walked towards Malekith and said to Lin Rui beside him.
“At this point, I’m really glad that I can come to Asgard with you. Don’t worry, things are looking even worse for Malekith. He will be willing to negotiate with us if he still wants to get the Aether.” Lin Rui said calmly after hearing Thor’s words.
For Lin Rui, the opportunity for Convergence between Nine Realms is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as long as his memory is correct. Malekith must seize this opportunity if he is to complete his grand plan for complete domination. So Malekith could not drag it out much longer.
“Huh, if Malekith wants to make a move then you can run, I have a way to deal with him,” Thor said. Although he was thankful for Lin Rui’s support, he didn’t want him to be in real danger.
“I know.” Lin Rui replied indifferently to Thor’s concern.
At this point, they were already less than ten meters away from Malekith. Then the footsteps of the two gradually slowed down, and finally stopped at a position of about five meters.
From the beginning, when Thor and Lin Rui broke away from Asgard’s team and came to him, Malekith speculated about their purpose. After all, the situation is not good for him and the other side can use their army tactics to drag him and The Kursed to death. But they lingered and now they sent two men.
Malekith knows Thor, after all, Thor is the Crown Prince of Asgard, and his various deeds were quite famous among the races of the Nine Realms.
However, he heard that some time ago, the Crown Prince of Asgard went to the Frost Giant’s home and fought their leader which caused the current war between Asgardians and Jotun, so he was exiled by Odin. Now, Thor had appeared in Asgard, but his strength is not what it used to be.
Malekith would not be afraid of him even when Thor had access to his full power. Malekith is someone who has been leading the Dark Elves before Odin’s time and he wouldn’t be letting any new prince walk all over him.
However, Malekith didn’t know who the masked fellow who came along with Thor was. From his battle with The Kursed just now, although his strength is not top-notch, he is already quite powerful.
Also, he attacked in a way that Malekith had never seen before. That kind of Azura energy was something Malekith had never seen before.
“Is he someone outside of the Nine Realm?” Malekith also made some guesses about Lin Rui’s identity.
However, his guess is quite normal. Lin Rui can indeed be regarded as a kind of person outside the Nine Realms and even outside the entire Universe, but he is someone who knows the plot.
Not being able to read their purpose from Thor and Lin Rui, Malekith’s eyes scanned the Asgard team behind them several times. After seeing the situation of the woman possessed by the Aether, Malekith’s eyes flashed, and he seemed to think of something.
For Malekith, the Aether is worth far more than anything else. In his opinion, a woman who is about to be swallowed by the Aether is worthless. So he didn’t take Jane seriously at first, and he thought the same should be true for the people on the opposite side. As long as the woman dies, the Aether will naturally return to its natural form.
But now, looking at the woman, unconscious but well taken care of by Frigga, Malekith felt as if he had caught her by a point. That is, they don’t want to sacrifice that woman to get the Aether, they want to save her.
Therefore, when he saw Thor and Lin Rui coming to a stop in front of him, Malekith looked at them and his expression became extremely cold.
“For you two to come here… do you plan to capture us all on your own or do you plan to let us go?” Malekith spoke as he looked at Thor and Lin Rui with a cold expression on his face.
“If I let you go now, would you be willing to leave?” Thor asked in disdain after hearing Malekith’s words.
Now that he’s ready to negotiate, Thor also understands the importance of Aether. Therefore, he can’t let the other party take the initiative.
“Didn’t you invade Asgard this time for the Aether? Now that you haven’t got the thing, will you be willing to leave empty-handed?” Thor continued to ask before Malekith could continue to speak.
“Humph! It seems that you already know our purpose. Yes! I’m here for the Aether!” Malekith said unceremoniously after hearing Thor’s words.
“That’s good! If I gave you a chance to leave now with the Aether, would you take it?” Thor asked loudly as he stared at Malekith.
Thor originally thought that Malekith would be excited after he said this or he would at least show some other expression on his face. But he was disappointed. Malekith seemed to know what Thor would say and the expression on his face remained cold.
