Chapter 117 The Mind Stone and the Energy of the Aether
The thick, dark clouds were broken, but a long shadow was left on the ground, stretching for tens of kilometers.
Finally, the spaceship mothership came to a stop in front of a building, like a blade piercing the sky, stretching from the ground all the way up into the heavens. Then, a red flash spread down from the top of the spaceship mothership, and this red flash only stopped when it touched the ground.
A small steel cabin, shimmering with red light, slowly opened, revealing a steel staircase that rapidly descended to the ground. Maleski stepped out, followed by a tall, muscular cursed warrior.
As he stood on the ground, Malesky slowly looked up at the sky, where the clouds were suddenly torn apart by a spatial hole, and light, like sunlight, poured down.
"That's not Earth, is it?"
The ever-growing spatial rift allowed more and more people to see the scene on the other side, a world that was almost entirely different: all sorts of bizarre creatures and plants of all shapes and colors.
Then, more and more spatial holes appeared, and behind each spatial hole was a different world.
"One, two, three...eight!"
Shocked, someone couldn't help but count: eight space holes were forming in the sky. Instantly, countless people pulled out their phones to take pictures—what's happening to Earth lately? Aliens and even other planets, previously unseen, have appeared twice in just one year. This time, eight extraterrestrial planets have appeared in succession.
"Hello everyone, this is a live broadcast, and I'm your host, Annie. As you can see, a huge alien spaceship has just appeared, but it hasn't made any other moves yet and hasn't attacked the surrounding people. We don't know if it's friend or foe."
"Eight spatial holes appeared in the sky. From some of these spatial holes, we can clearly see many creatures that do not exist on Earth. We boldly speculate that behind those eight spatial holes are alien planets."
"These eight spatial holes are slowly converging in one direction at a speed visible to the naked eye. None of us know whether they will align completely like the nine stars in a row, or what the subsequent impact will be."
"..."
Following the Battle of New York, aliens have descended once again, and this time the news has spread even faster than before, because everyone remembers the terrible situation that occurred on Manhattan Island during the last alien visit!
Is it finally coming?
Malesky looked at the eight spatial holes in the sky, a chilling smile appearing on his face. But after a moment, his brows furrowed slightly, and he looked in a certain direction.
"Bang!"
Thor plummeted from the sky, crashing to the ground and shattering the bricks and stones. Moments later, Thor slowly rose, raising Mjolnir towards Maleski.
Then, a person clad in steel armor flew through the air at incredible speed, landing beside Thor.
But Maleski's gaze was fixed on Wanda, who was slowly floating towards him. He naturally remembered how, just a day ago, he and the cursed warrior had been tortured by this girl to the point of almost dying in Asgard.
“You’re all here now, so why face death so soon? Death was bound to come knocking soon anyway.” Maleski slowly walked toward Thor.
As the king of the dark elves, he was already very familiar with the aether particles. Now that he has regained the aether particles, his strength has been terrifyingly enhanced!
“Our time to die is still far off, but yours is imminent.” Wanda slightly flicked her wrist, and chaotic energy swirled around her fingertips. She tilted her head slightly as she looked at Maleski, as if she were looking at prey.
Even though Malesky was very confident at this moment, he couldn't help but feel uneasy!
"Look, Scarlet Witch, Iron Man, and Thor are talking to that alien. I wonder if they're having a friendly conversation."
"For some reason, only Scarlet Witch, Iron Man, and Thor showed up this time? Perhaps the other superheroes are still on their way? Or have they lost their resolve to save the world? Everyone knows that after the Battle of New York a year ago, even Spider-Man has been out there doing good deeds much less often, and the others have completely disappeared..."
News platforms are rapidly reporting the news, and after a year's hiatus, the world is once again broadcasting the communication with extraterrestrials on a large scale.
On the empty grass, only an increasingly somber atmosphere prevailed.
Maleski looked at the three people opposite him, walking faster and faster, his eyes filled with increasing killing intent. When the ether particles in his body slowly surfaced, Maleski suddenly stopped the attack he was about to launch.
Wanda, Tony, and Thor also stopped moving, just like him.
In the sky, Ultron was slowly floating down, drifting towards Malesky's direction.
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. I don't know if you've ever heard that saying before," Ultron said to Malesky as he floated down beside him, his mouth slightly open.
Malesky nodded slightly, lowering his guard somewhat—he allowed Ultron to land near him because of the hateful looks Wanda and Tony gave Ultron.
Of course, it also stems from his confidence.
Seeing Maleski remain silent, Ultron pointed to the Mind Stone above his head and continued, "Perhaps you've also sensed a slight resonance between the energy within you and the Mind Stone above my head. If my calculations are correct, you intend to use this celestial convergence to do something. Perhaps I can help you."
