The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 3423 Sons of Midnight (22)

Chapter 3423 Midnight Son (Twenty-two)

The moment this thought came to his mind, Schiller took out his cell phone and called Loki.

"Hello? Have you come out of the fighting world?"

Loki on the other end of the line should be working, and the sound of papers shuffling can be heard. He held the phone and said, "Just came out, we barely completed our mission. What's wrong?"

"How is Malekith?"

"Who?" Loki obviously didn't react.

"Malekith, leader of the dark elves!"

The other end of the phone was silent for a long time before he said, "Isn't he with the humans? Have you forgotten the last time you captured all the dark elves? To be more precise, it was you who captured all the dark elves?"

Some memories flashed through his mind. Schiller looked at Kong Su, who looked at him silently.

The last time Malekith met was Moonlight Sheele.

The situation at that time can basically be summarized as: loud gongs and drums, blasting firecrackers, waving red flags, and huge crowds of people - all of them came to stop Moonlight Schiller from killing Malekith.

The final outcome seems to be that the Dark Elves were wiped out by Schiller's ultimate move. Malekith escaped with the help of the Ancient One's shield because he was close to the Ancient One. But Schiller is not very clear about where he went afterwards.

"The Ancient One cannot take Malekith out of the Nine Realms." Loki said, "Any leader of any race in the Nine Realms who wants to leave here must get Odin's consent. If Odin has no news, it means he has not left."

"Do you think Ancient One will kill him?"

"Probably not." Loki said, "Although Ancient One has never been lenient towards those who invaded Earth, if this person's survival can bring greater benefits, she would be more willing to let the other party atone for his crime."

Schiller learned two things from Loki. The first was that Malekith was not dead and was still in the Nine Realms. The second was that the person who dealt with Malekith was the Ancient One, who must have used some means to restrict this dark elf so that he could use the dark elf's masking technology to make more contributions to the earth.

As for the Dark Elves, although they were severely damaged in this battle, they were not exterminated. After all, their homeland was in Watalheim, a remote area. It was impossible for humans to chase them there and exterminate them.

After a period of recuperation, they should have recovered. Without Malekith, they will definitely put forward other leaders, and their purpose is naturally the same, that is, to get rid of the barren and remote Watalheim and find a rich land among the nine kingdoms as their home.

The nine realms are very large, and there are many civilizations in each dimension. Even in Asgard, which is ruled by the Aesir, not only the Aesir live there. The Aesir mainly live near Asgard, and there are other races in other vast areas, but their civilization level is not high, so they are not taken seriously by the gods.

The politics, economy and culture of the nine countries are similar to those of the Earth. In other words, the evolutionary paths of carbon-based intelligent life are similar. The ecological niches and roles played by various civilizations in the universe can be found in corresponding countries and groups on Earth.

The Dark Elves civilization is a bit like Japan on Earth. Their homeland, Watt Alheim, is very small and quite desolate. Whether in comics or movies, this dimension is dark, neither beautiful nor fertile.

However, their civilization is very close to Asgard, and is located in the center of Asgard's civilization circle, even closer than the relationship between humans and Asgard. Several generations of Aesir gods have conquered Watalheim, bringing new technology and culture there, making the dark elves become the supporters of the Aesir.

The Dark Elves have mixed feelings towards the Aesir. Most of their technology and culture come from the Aesir, but for various reasons, there is no way they can develop into a civilization as great as the Aesir. But this desire is engraved in their bones and has never disappeared.

The dark elves believed that they were unable to develop into an advanced civilization mainly because of the constraints of the barren land of their homeland. Watalheim was too barren, and the races that evolved here had too many defects and did not have enough resources to allow them to start the Great Interstellar Era.

In order to solve this problem, the Dark Elves racked their brains. The leaders of each generation of Dark Elves tried every means to break through geographical restrictions and find various opportunities to invade other more fertile dimensions in order to find a new home for their civilization.

There were not many civilizations that were easy to bully among the nine kingdoms. Whether it was the most beautiful and fertile Vanaheim, or Alfheim where the ancient race of light elves lived, or Nidavellir ruled by the dwarves, even Odin had to use some gentle means to rule these places. The dark elves had no chance of getting involved.

However, the natural conditions in Jotunheim where the Frost Giants live, Muspelheim, the source of flames, and the underworld where Hela lives are too harsh and are not suitable for the survival of the Dark Elves at all.

Then, Midgard, which is the dimension where the earth is located, has relatively mild natural conditions and no powerful races survive, and becomes the best target for the dark elves.

Just like Japan, the fear of survival brought about by limited resources has made external expansion the main theme of their ethnic development. No matter which leader comes to power, no matter how well they disguise themselves, the geographical conditions are destined, and once they have the opportunity, they will definitely find ways to invade other countries.

Schiller had no doubt that even if Malekith was still restricted and had no opportunity or ability to cause trouble, the dark elves would definitely elect a new leader to lead them to external conquests in the same way, like a hungry wolf, constantly trying to pounce on the most delicious piece of fat meat in their mouths.

Thinking of this, Schiller realized that the key was not Malekith, but the race of the dark elves. As long as they existed, their harassment of the earth would not stop.

Dark elves are also intelligent beings. With the development of civilization to this day, they also know the methods that humans know. Roxxon Company is the comprador they bought from within the human race.

By using the Roxxon Corporation, they can not only steal resources within the solar system, but also exert influence in all aspects, constantly interfere with human vision, and even reverse public opinion, whitewash their past acts of aggression, and even make themselves victims.

Because the managers of Roxxon Corporation are also human, if they want to deal with Roxxon, they have to deal with their fellow human beings, and it may develop into a civil war in the end. In any case, it is beneficial to the dark elves.

The worst party in this matter is not even the dark elves, but the Roxxon Company, which chose to rely on the dark elves and betrayed its own race.

The last incident had not taught them enough lessons. Schiller thought, for both the dark elves and the Roxxon Company.

However, he also knew that humans must be prepared for a long struggle. The Dark Elves had been attached to Asgard for so many years, and their technological level and resource reserves were far superior to those of the newly established Earth.

But in the end, victory will surely belong to mankind.

Schiller slowly descended with his staff. The surface of Io was full of volcanoes, and the natural environment was very harsh. But it was precisely because of the complex surface environment that Schiller had the opportunity to hide himself.

He stood on the crater of another smaller volcano and looked towards the temple. There were people patrolling the entrance of the temple, but they were obviously not dark elves, but humans.

Looking at the horns on these humans' heads, Schiller knew that they must be monsters transformed by Roxxon. Although he didn't know how much rationality they still had, they were definitely not something that could be persuaded.

Schiller sighed softly and said to Kong Su, "Get ready."

As soon as he finished speaking, Schiller turned into a ray of moonlight and landed in the shade of the temple. He pointed his staff forward and a ray of white light wrapped around the waist of a bull-headed monster. Schiller pulled back hard and the monster was dragged over.

Schiller, who had experience dealing with this kind of monster, didn't need to test it again. He simply grabbed the Minotaur's neck and smashed it against the wall, smashing the two horns on its head into pieces.

The monster, having lost its power source, gradually transformed into a human form. Schiller saw that it was a young girl, who might have just reached adulthood. Without the support of magical power, she could not survive in this environment.

Schiller waved his hand, and the silver energy wrapped around her body, solidifying her state, and then sent her into Kongsu's kingdom of God. After the mission is over, I will ask her in detail.

Without a monster, there was a gap in the patrol. Schiller did not go through the main entrance, but jumped to the balcony on the second floor. Looking inside through the glass, there was no light in the temple. Schiller guessed that there should be dark elves inside.

Dark elves are not easy to deal with. The elves in the nine kingdoms all know magic, and dark elves also have technological equipment. It is difficult to deal with them silently.

Schiller decided to find a way to get around them. He transformed into a ray of moonlight and passed through the glass, opening his magical vision in the darkness. Sure enough, he saw a dark elf just walking out of the door at the end of the corridor.

Schiller concealed his figure and watched him go down the stairs. Schiller followed him quietly.

Greed doesn't know any skills of stealth tracking, this is the skill of an agent. Although it still can't be restored 100%, with the help of magic, Schiller still successfully followed the dark elf downstairs.

The other party spoke into the headset in the language of his race. Schiller could not understand the language of the dark elves, but he could write down the pronunciation and compare it, find the most frequent word, analyze the timing of its appearance, and infer the meaning of the word.

Moreover, most of the races in the nine kingdoms use alphabetic languages, which are bound to have many foreign words. The same is true for the dark elves who are deeply influenced by Asgard. Many words in their language come from Old Norse. After dealing with Thor and Loki a lot, Schiller is not proficient in this language, but he can understand it roughly.

As expected, the dark elf mentioned a word repeatedly in his words. Schiller heard that it sounded very much like the Asgardian word for "portal".

This confirmed Stark's previous conjecture. Roxxon Corporation should be colluding with the dark elves to mine Jupiter's resources and then transport them out of the solar system through the portal.

Schiller recorded the conversation of the dark elves with a recording device and returned along the way he came. He returned to the second floor of the temple, found a safe corner in the corridor, and called Loki.

"Loki, I remember that you should be proficient in the languages ​​of all races in the nine kingdoms, right? Help me listen to what this passage is saying."

Loki was a little confused, but as he listened to the recording played by Schiller, his expression gradually became serious. He said, "The dark elves are approaching the earth again? Do they want to attack your Jupiter?"

"Take action on Jupiter? What do you mean?"

"I don't know, but this passage says that the portal is about to be opened and the general is going to take action against Jupiter."
