It's not an exaggeration to say that Asgard's guard warriors practically watched them appear and then disappear. Forget about intercepting them; they didn't even see them for more than ten seconds!
Han Yu and the others didn't fly for long. From the Asgardian hall to their destination, the whole process took less than twenty seconds.
The Green Lantern Ring's ultimate speed can reach superluminal speeds, but Han Yu had only activated one-tenth of its potential.
Asgard is a super city built on a planet. Unlike other planets where people live inside, Asgard is constructed directly on the surface.
The planet serves as an energy source located beneath the city. With only a few thousand inhabitants, the exit was located in the southeastern mountains of Asgard, the largest mountain range.
On one side of the mountain range, there was a seemingly insignificant crack, about ten meters long and wide enough for five or six adults to walk side-by-side.
Four streams of light entered the opening. The dark cave flashed with a light similar to that of the Bifrost, and in an instant, the four of them vanished.
The cave, which had just lit up, darkened again. Only the occasional drops of water from the stalactites above dripped into small puddles on the ground. The cave didn't seem to become any livelier due to Han Yu and his companions' arrival; it remained quiet and still.
After the group disappeared from Asgard, two figures silently appeared at the mouth of the cave. One was a richly dressed noblewoman, and the other was an old man with white hair and a serious expression.
Looking at the silent cave, the old man sighed softly. The noblewoman beside him saw his sadness and gently patted his back.
"The children have all grown up, and it's time for them to rely on themselves, not just the title of 'Prince of Asgard'. It's time for them to take on the responsibility of looking after Asgard."
The old man's deep voice echoed throughout the cave.
"Han Yu, Thor, I entrust them to you. Asgard, I entrust to you all. I should also step down from the throne and rest well."
A dazzling light flashed before their eyes. The change in brightness from the spatial travel caused the four of them to instinctively close their eyes. When they opened them again, they were no longer in the magnificent daylight of Asgard, but in a world of a blood-red twilight.
"Is this the Dark World?"
The group slowly flew through the air. Han Yu looked down and saw many tall buildings, but they were all in ruins. He could tell that this planet had once been a glorious city, but they had taken the wrong path.
They had tried to use the Reality Stone to occupy other worlds, which led to Asgard's retaliation. In the end, only Malekith and a few others remained. If they had been more patient and hadn't used such a direct method,
the Dark Elves, who possessed the Reality Stone, might still be a force not weaker than Asgard.
"What should we do next?"
After landing, Loki looked at Han Yu. They had come to the enemy's home with such fanfare; it would be ridiculous if they didn't have a plan.
Han Yu stroked his chin and, after a moment of thought, said, "Just fight."
"Perhaps I shouldn't have agreed to come."
Loki's expression suddenly darkened. So there was no plan at all. This approach was too wild...
However, this piqued Loki's interest. Han Yu didn't seem like someone who was simple-minded. From the moment he met him, Han Yu had been smiling, no matter what was said to him.
People like that are truly terrifying, so when he arrived, he didn't ask Thor first; he asked Han Yu.
"With Han Yu here, we definitely don't need any fancy methods. We're guaranteed to win!"
Thor said this with great confidence. He had seen Han Yu turn the massive Sokovia island into ashes and gather them together. Furthermore, Han Yu didn't even need Odin-level divine power and could still lift his hammer.
Although they hadn't known each other for long, Thor had immense faith in Han Yu in this regard. This was also the reason he came to Asgard without hesitation.
Hearing Han Yu's words, Thor was also very happy, believing this matter could be easily resolved. However, they didn't see the slight upward curve of Han Yu's lips, as if he were planning something.
After making their decision, the group found a place with less dust to sit and wait quietly for Malekith's arrival.
About half an hour later, a huge, cross-shaped spaceship flew into the Dark World from outer space, slowly descending above the ruins.
Compared to the spaceship, Han Yu and the others looked tiny, making the already somber and blood-red world even more oppressive.
"Malekith is here, prepare yourselves!"
Thor's body trembled as he watched the spaceship slowly descend from the sky. He gripped his hammer tightly, ready for battle.
The spaceship landed, and a group of people disembarked, heading towards them.
Leading the group was an alien with long, white braids. Their features were similar to humans, but their skin color was very different.
Although they called themselves Dark Elves, their skin looked like it was covered in a thick layer of makeup, and they had no eyebrows, making them look a bit strange.
Is this Malekith? He looks quite ordinary.
Han Yu thought to himself. He wouldn't even bother to fight someone like this. He had originally thought that in this altered timeline, Malekith would have become "three-headed and six-armed", but he looked the same as before.
They were high-tech aliens, similar to those of Asgard. Their primary combat methods involved enhanced physiques and laser guns. They didn't seem particularly special, but this style of fighting had still killed many Asgardian warriors.
After stopping at a safe distance, Malekith looked around. Seeing only four people on the other side, he said in a calm tone, "Is this some kind of plan? I killed Odin's wife, and only four of you come? Especially with two Earthlings?"
In Malekith's view, only Thor and Loki were capable fighters, while Han Yu and Jane were dead weight.
Hearing the other party mention their mother, both Thor and Loki's expressions turned grim. The hatred of a mother's murder was irreconcilable; they only wanted to tear the other person to shreds.
"Attack!"
The two exchanged a glance. Thor took the lead, swinging his hammer and flying out. Brilliant lightning flashed on the hammer as he charged into the ranks of the Dark Elves, one swing taking out a small, cute one.
Suddenly, a great force came from his side. Thor didn't have time to block, and was sent flying by the blow. Looking up, he saw a Dark Elf who was completely different from the others running towards him.
"This is the Dark Elf who killed my mother!"
Seeing the newcomer, Thor's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness. He recognized the figure's identity. The reason the newcomer had grown so large was because he possessed a fragment of the Aether within him.
Although it was less than one ten-thousandth of the Aether's energy, it had brought about a world of difference to his body, even granting him the ability to absorb the life force of others to heal himself.
Thor had seen more than a dozen Asgardian warriors in Asgard who had lost their life force and turned into withered corpses. He was certain that this was the work of this person.
"Loki, have you betrayed me again?"
