Chapter 863: At Wit’s End?
Tear! Tear!
With the appearance of the first spatial crack, several spatial cracks appeared next to Lin Rui one after another, and gradually the aura of danger strengthened around Lin Rui. Lin Rui also noticed these changes in the situation around him, so the expression on his face became even more ugly.
“This is cheating! I should have known not to put Magic Cube in my portable s.p.a.ce!” Seeing that there were more and more cracks in the s.p.a.ce around him, Lin Rui almost cried and muttered to himself.
Of course, this is not the first time Lin Rui had seen such cracks in s.p.a.ce. As early as when he first came into contact with s.p.a.ce capabilities, Lin Rui had already seen the power of s.p.a.ce cracks.
Although Lin Rui’s strength has increased a lot compared to before, he is also very helpless in the face of the almost unreasonable lethality of the s.p.a.ce crack.
Hoo!
When Lin Rui was half kneeling and looking at the s.p.a.ce cracks in front of him, a green light suddenly rushed from behind him. Lin Rui did not resist the light as it covered him. The next moment, Lin Rui’s figure disappeared in place with the green light.
Pū!
When Lin Rui reappeared, he had returned to Thor’s side, and by his side stood Frigga and Four Warriors. It seems that Thor and the others persisted for a long time from the collision of the energy of the Aether Particle and the Magic Cube and discovered the situation on Lin Rui’s side, so Frigga used teleportation magic to teleport him back.
“Jackson! What the h.e.l.l is going on?!” Lin Rui wasn’t the only one who could feel the strong spatial energy emanating from him so Thor looks at him and asks in surprise.
The sudden burst of Aether just now was due to the sudden appearance of s.p.a.ce energy, and this s.p.a.ce energy fluctuation is being transmitted from Lin Rui, so everyone’s eyes are focused on him. Of course, Frigga knew what was going on.
“It’s the Magic Cube.” Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Lin Rui couldn’t keep it to himself, so he had to speak up and explain.
“Magic Cube?! What is that?” Hearing Lin Rui’s answer, Thor and the Four Warriors looked back at him with confused expressions on their faces.
“It’s something that can be compared with the Aether, and it was once stored in our treasury. However, it was lost for some reasons, and somehow found its way to Midgard.” Seeing everyone’s puzzled appearance, Frigga finally opened her mouth to explain the situation.
“Something comparable to Aether?! Jackson, Heimdall said that you took something from Asgard before… He wasn’t talking about this Magic Cube, right?!” Hearing Frigga’s explanation, Thor stared at Lin Rui and asked in disbelief.
“Um!… I… Is this the best time to discuss this? The situation is already so bad! If we can’t suppress the magic Cube’s energy then we will likely be swallowed by the chaotic s.p.a.ce energy!” Seeing that Thor wanted to keep asking him many questions, Lin Rui reminded him with a helpless expression on his face.
Buzz!
Tear!
Just after Lin Rui finished saying this, the s.p.a.ce energy surrounding him was entangled and another s.p.a.ce crack appeared out of thin air.
Brush!
At the moment when the s.p.a.ce crack appeared, Thor and others who had just been standing beside Lin Rui quickly retreated away from him by at least 10 meters. They also seem to know how much of a threat this s.p.a.ce rift poses to them.
Lin Rui: “…”
Seeing their resolute retreat, Lin Rui hung up his head and black lines appeared above his head. However, Lin Rui also understands their behavior, and if he encounters such a situation himself, he will make the same choice as them.
“Do you know why the Magic Cube is behaving this way?” Frigga, who was standing ten meters away, frowned as she looked at the s.p.a.ce cracks that had begun to appear next to Lin Rui.
No one cares about whether Malekith escaped Asgard with the Aether or not. The situation here is not at all as simple as Malekith leaving with the Aether Particle. Even if Malekith left with the Aether, he would have to go to the Earth and wait for the alignment of the Nine Realms so they have some time before that happens.
But if the situation on Lin Rui’s side isn’t resolved immediately then perhaps the Palace and even Asgard will be wiped out of the universe by the burst of energy from the s.p.a.ce Stone.
“How would I know that?! Maybe it’s because of the Aether! The Magic Cube began to misbehave when Malekith began to extract the Aether out of Jane. You should be able to sense the s.p.a.ce energies that are rushing out in one direction!” Lin Rui answered loudly after hearing Frigga’s words.
Brush!
Hearing Lin Rui’s answer, Thor and the others’ eyes all turned to the direction in which the spatial energy waves were being transmitted. Then, they saw a very surprising scene.
In the direction where the spatial energy had rushed out about five hundred meters away, two figures were struggling in mid-air against the spatial energy fluctuations that kept coming towards them.
Needless to say, the two figures were Malekith and The Kursed Algrim who were planning to break out while taking advantage of the chaos.
For some reason, the spatial energies belonging to the Magic Cube are still chasing them even after the Aether Particle has been collected by Malekith, and energy fluctuations are no longer emanating from it.
If Malekith and Algrim were not strong enough, they would not have been able to hold on under the impact of this wave of s.p.a.ce energy so how could they still break through the siege?
“Looks like Aether is the cause of this situation!” Seeing Malekith and Algrim’s situation in the distance, Thor’s eyes flashed with lightning as he spoke out in a low voice.
“Then what do we do now?!” Seeing that there were more cracks in the s.p.a.ce beside him, Lin Rui shouted while looking at Thor and the others standing in the safe area.
Of course, Lin Rui is not without any way out of this dangerous situation at this time. The fastest and safest way is to directly exchange the Magic Cube to the System Shop. But that was inconsistent with Lin Rui’s original purpose of obtaining the Magic Cube. He wanted to use the Magic Cube’s abilities to improve the power of the people of the Earth.
If Lin Rui had intended to exchange the Magic Cube for Reward points, he would have done so when he got it. However, if there was no other way, Lin Rui would have no choice but to do so.
After all, his own life is still more important and something like this happened not long ago when he sold the Heart of Life to the System Shop even though he didn’t want to in the beginning when he got it.
“Maybe… you can try to actively use the power of the Magic Cube instead of suppressing its power.” Hearing Lin Rui’s words, Frigga, who was standing beside Thor, thought for a while and said.
