Chapter 855: Deadlock
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
While Lin Rui blocked that short dagger attack and ran towards Thor and others, Algrim had also disintegrated a strip of Azura light that was wrapped around his body. After breaking free from these annoying energy beams, however, Algrim did not continue his pursuit but turned back to look at Malekith after sweeping a look at the fleeing Lin Rui.
Brush!
Then, Algrim abandoned Lin Rui and turned to run towards Malekith. Algrim was under the command of Malekith, but he wasn’t a fool. The two of them who went deep into the Asgard Palace were strong enough to force their way out, and if they dragged on, the situation would get worse and worse. Therefore, he chose to return to Malekith as defeating both of them would be difficult.
And when Algrim gave up on chasing Lin Rui to help Malekith, Frigga, who tried her best to stop Malekith, also stopped. If Malekith was in his prime, Frigga wouldn’t have been able to hold him back for so long. With the addition of The Kursed, Frigga is definitely going to retreat.
Bang!
In this way, in a flash of magic, Frigga was enveloped in a burst of green light. When the light dissipated, her figure also disappeared. When she reappeared, Frigga was already standing in front of Thor.
And after Frigga and Thor reunited, Algrim also returned to Malekith. At this point, Malekith’s plan was almost a complete failure.
Originally, he wanted to use the outside army to attract most of the fighting power of the Asgard, so that he and Algrim could go deep into the palace to capture the Aether. Their plan is mostly based on sneaking inside the palace, after all, this is Asgard.
But now, the Aether is possessed by the unidentified woman. And Malekith suffered from Frigga’s attack when she tried to stop him from taking the Aether, plus the inexplicable attack of the Aether host so that Malekith has not touched it until now. It can be said that the current situation is very unfavorable for Malekith.
Whoosh!
Opposite to Malekith and Algrim, Lin Rui has also run to Thor’s side. Moreover, in addition to the Golden Armor team that originally came with Thor, more and more Asgard warriors had come to support them.
It seems that the battlefield outside the palace has stabilized, and the invasion of the Dark Elves has obviously been stopped.
“Mother! Are you okay?” Thor asked worriedly after Frigga flashed beside him.
“I am okay, Malekith can’t hurt me.” Frigga shook her head when she heard Thor’s words.
“Where’s Father? Could it be true what Sif told me? He…” Although Frigga said that he was fine, Thor was still very angry, so he asked about Odin’s situation.
“Your father is all right, but he’s not suitable to come forward right now. Besides, can’t we solve this kind of thing on our own?” Seeing Thor’s question about Odin’s situation, Frigga simply explained.
“He is not suitable to step in for you to take action? I’ve never seen you fight anyone in my life!” Hearing Frigga’s explanation, Thor said with great dissatisfaction.
With his Divine power sealed, Thor has to go all out in the face of opponents who he could smash with a single hammer before. Now, Thor is very upset seeing that his usually gentle and generous mother is fighting with the enemy.
“Don’t talk so much now, the Aether is still in your girlfriend’s body. Although I don’t know why the Aether does not continue to devour her life energy but we still have to take the Aether out.” With so many questions, Frigga’s eyes shifted to the side toward Jane as she spoke.
Swipe!
After Frigga finished saying this, Lin Rui, who was still staring at Malekith, turned his head to Jane Foster. Jane didn’t know what was going on at this time and she happened to be looking at Lin Rui, the Mirage Knight she knew.
“So the Aether is still in Jane’s body! What should I do now in this situation?” Ignoring Jane’s look, Lin Rui looked at her and thought.
“Then!… What should I do now?!” Thor asked with a worried expression on his face as he looked at Jane who knew nothing about her situation.
Knowing that Thor wanted to help Jane, Frigga silently shook her head, and she had no other choice. The current situation regarding the Aether is very special, one that neither Frigga nor Malekith has ever encountered.
Depending on the situation, it seems that Aether has some consciousness of its own, and it is using Jane’s body to exert its own power.
“No matter what, there will always be a way!” Thor’s heart sank when he saw Frigga shaking her head, but he still stubbornly said that.
‘If you can’t do it then maybe Malekith would be able to. It’s just, how do I make sure that he doesn’t escape after taking the Aether out of Jane’s body?’ Lin Rui, who also saw Frigga’s action, was not as disappointed as Thor and was already thinking of other ways.
As Thor and the others converged and chatted about Jane’s situation, Malekith and The Kursed stood on the other side and stared at them. They obviously saw Jane’s appearance and they knew that the Aether is in this woman’s body.
As long as they caught this woman, they would be able to get their hands on Aether. This is something that Malekith knows very well.
However, with the full support of the Asgard’s best soldiers behind her, Malekith and Algrim knew that they wouldn’t be able to catch Jane no matter how strong they were.
“Malekith, what should we do now? Should we retreat or fight?” Algrim spoke for the first time as he looked at the people on the opposite side.
Algrim wasn’t able to do anything against the masked guy and from the outside, it looked as if he was still on the losing side. After all, the Sword Mountain was visually stunning.
However, he hasn’t shown his full strength otherwise, the Sword Mountain wouldn’t have been able to suppress him and that is saying something considering that it is Lin Rui’s strongest attack at the moment.
“Retreat? How can I retreat when the Aether is right in front of me?!” Hearing Algrim’s question, Malekith replied with a cold light in his eyes.
“Then we…”
“As long as Odin doesn’t show up, we have a chance. The Aether is in that woman’s body and she is our sole target!”
