Lu Mingfei doesn't want to be a superhero

Chapter 386: Iron Deadpool Legion VS Dark Elves?

In outer space, in the main battleship of the Dark Elf fleet.

"Access the signal immediately!"

As the leader of the dark elves, an ancient being who is almost the same age as Odin's father, Malekith rarely shows obvious fluctuations in emotions and tone in front of his subordinates.

Aether particles are the only way for the dark elves to turn the entire universe into a dark paradise. They have waited too long for this, so long that most civilizations in the universe have perished naturally. During this period, countless strong men and scholars of the dark elf tribe have died, and countless dark elves have forgotten their original great goal, and even began to think that the dark elves should give up their unrealistic ambitions.

After waiting for a long time, the Aether particles finally appeared again. If they missed this opportunity, Malekith believed that the Dark Elves would not be able to persist for the same long time.

So in a sense, this is the last chance. If we fail this time, it will be a complete failure, and we will fail forever.

As he gave the order, a screen unfolded in front of him. What was displayed on the screen was not a human face, but a dark green symbol full of Asgard style.

This symbol is the pattern on the flag that Hela used as a general when she followed Odin to war.

Malekith didn't recognize the pattern, but he could tell at a glance that it was very similar to the one used by Asgard.

"Hello, dark elf." A woman's voice came from the communication.

"Asgardian?" Malekith's voice was low and emotionless.

Several close associates of Malekith clearly showed vigilance and strong hostility.

The reason why the Dark Elves are in their current predicament is because of Asgard at that time, but Malekith knows that now is not the time to act on impulse.

"The eldest princess of Asgard," said the woman on the other end of the line, "the future king of Asgard, the goddess of death Hela."

"I know you, the rebel sealed by Odin," Malekith said, "As far as I know, the current king of Asgard is still Odin, son of Bor, and the future king should be Thor, son of Odin."

After being defeated by Asgard led by Bor, the Dark Elves have been dormant, but they still retain some channels and capabilities for collecting intelligence. Moreover, most of their intelligence capabilities are naturally used on Asgard, their biggest enemy.

They all knew about Odin's conquest of the Nine Realms and the sealing of Hela.

What made Malekith most despair among all the information was that Odin was stronger than Bor.

When they had the ether particles, they were defeated by Bohr. Without the ether particles, they had no chance of winning against Odin. This is also one of the main reasons why they have been dormant.

But now that Odin is old, his threat is much reduced.

"Soon, Odin will be at the end of his life," Hela said. "I will become the new king of Asgard, and you will have the opportunity to get what you wish for."

"As you wish? It sounds like you need our help to ascend the throne of Asgard," said Malekith.

“And you also need my help to find the Reality Stone.” Hela said.

After Hela said this, both sides fell into a long silence.

After a long time, Hela and Malekith spoke almost at the same time: "It's a pleasure to work with you."

This hasty "cooperation" did not even have any detailed terms discussed, because both parties knew that the "cooperation" would immediately fall apart after they had taken advantage of the other party, or the other party had taken advantage of them.

“Stop the fleet at this coordinate, I will come to find you,” Hela said. “Also, I heard that you have something called ‘ether fragments’, and a high concentration of ether particle power?”

……

In Saul's room.

Jane sat up from Thor's bed, rubbing her forehead, and seemed not fully awake yet.

Saul immediately appeared and sat down beside the bed, letting Jane lean on his arms: "Jane, how do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"Uh... I feel like there's a hot spring in my head... but it's not uncomfortable..." Jane said, "Did it work?"

"Successful," Thor said, "You are safe. According to Ming Fei, you now have a stronger physical fitness than many superheroes."

"Me?" Jane pointed at herself in disbelief. "He said that the thing he injected me with would make my body stronger, but stronger than many superheroes?"

"Well... it depends on who you compare with. In fact, there are many superheroes who have average physical fitness. When we formed the Avengers, we looked for information on many superheroes to see if we could recruit some newcomers, but they were all too weak. For example, there was a street hero called Daredevil. Can you believe that he is even afraid of human weapons like machine guns?" Thor shrugged.

"Avengers...can I join?" Jane suddenly said.

When she just woke up, she still felt a little weak, but after a few words, she felt that her condition was rapidly improving, and she could even be said to be full of energy.

"Why join? The Avengers are dangerous." Thor shook his head.

Several enemies he had encountered on Earth were considered extremely powerful in the entire Nine Realms. With Jane's physical fitness, he could bully ordinary Asgard civilians, but he had a hard time defeating elite Asgard warriors.

"Oh, then I'll just continue to be an astrophysicist..." Jane nodded.

She just thinks that Thor is an Avenger and should be equal to other members of the Avengers. She now has "superpowers". If she can also become an Avenger, does it mean that she and Thor are in a relatively "equal" state? Doesn't that mean she is qualified to be with Thor?

"Astrophysicist, have you ever considered joining the Avengers' scientific research department? There is enough funding..." Lu Mingfei pushed the door open.

"The Avengers also has a scientific research department?" Jane was a little surprised. "And does your scientific research department also study astrophysics?"

“It can be studied.” Lu Mingfei said.

"Wait, the scientific research you mentioned... you don't mean studying me, do you?" Jane, who had heard from Thor that the US military wanted to "study" Hulk, suddenly reacted.

"The medicine used on you is very mature. As an expected product of a medicine with mature technology, you have not undergone any benign mutations and are not worth studying," said Lu Mingfei.

"Oh, yes, that potion was originally yours..." Jane was a little embarrassed.

But in fact, Lu Mingfei's words were just the simplest way to reassure her. The dragon blood in Jane's body was a benign mutation. The dragon blood and the power remaining in her body from the reality gem were highly integrated. How could it not mutate?
Of course, Lu Mingfei did not intend to study Jane, because the body of the Reality Stone was in his hands now, and there was no need to study Jane, an individual affected by the residual power of the Reality Stone. One of the main reasons why he invited Jane to join was that she was on Earth, and her special features would be exposed sooner or later, so it was safer to put her in the Avengers base to prevent any crazy scientists from wanting to get some blood from her.

Even if there is no threat, it will still waste manpower, material resources and time to deal with it, which will only cause trouble.

"By the way, Thor, Tony said he wanted to come to Asgard again to do some research in your library, alchemy room or mine." Lu Mingfei said.

"Of course no problem, you can come anytime!" Thor said, patting his chest.

"But didn't your father say before that the divine realm does not welcome mortals? Will they not welcome Tony Stark?" Jane asked.

She herself could feel in the divine realm that the people here really did not welcome mortals.

"What makes you feel that Tony is a mortal..." Lu Mingfei complained from the side.

As he spoke, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and the blue space door opened. A moment later, Tony came out with messy hair: "Can you not choose my bedroom next time you open the space door?"

"Okay, Tony, let Thor and Jane show you around," Lu Mingfei said, "I need to find a quiet place to deal with the Reality Stone."

He hadn't had time to absorb the power of the Reality Stone, but considering that the Dark Elves would still attack Asgard with a desperate mentality even if they lost the coordinates of the Reality Stone, he pulled Tony in. With Tony's current ability as a wizard, plus he had previously used the power of the Space Stone to provide Tony with a little help, it was no problem for Tony to open the mirror space where the Iron Deadpool Legion was stored in Asgard.

While using the space gate to send Tony over, he also directly opened a larger door and sent Lucifer, who was integrated with the Asgard battleship in the extraterrestrial orbit, to the side of Asgard.

If the dark elves really attack, Lucifer and the Iron Deadpool Legion will be enough to give them a hard time.

This can also serve as a "training exercise" and allow the Iron Deadpool Corps to gain more combat data.

After chatting with Tony and Thor again, Lu Mingfei gave Tony a black dragon scale scepter representing his identity as "Prince Nidhogg", and told Thor to take charge of government affairs while he was in seclusion absorbing the Reality Stone, and to call him in time if any dark elves called, and then he left.

Anyway, his absorption of the Reality Stone is not like Odin's Sleep, which can be stopped at any time. If something happens, he can stop in the middle and continue absorbing after solving the problem.

……

Deep in the fairy palace, in a quiet room.

Lu Mingfei sat on the ground, with the Silver Oak Sword across his knees and the Reality Gem placed on the Silver Oak Sword.

In Lu Mingfei's perception, the Reality Gem is the one with the most active "nature" among all the gems in his hands. It can even be said to be active to the point of being a little out of place.

It was so easy for Lu Mingfei to absorb power directly from it. As long as he made a slight "hole" in it, the power would leak out like water.

For ordinary people, this energy leakage is a dangerous disaster because it is extremely unstable and will randomly affect and change the surrounding reality.

But for Lu Mingfei, who already possesses the power of three gems, this power is not difficult to control. The power of the reality gem will react to other gems. From a certain perspective, the power of the reality gem itself is like water, whose shape cannot be controlled. But the power of other gems can become containers of different shapes. As long as "water" is poured in, it will be shaped into the shape of the container.

Lu Mingfei concentrated on absorbing the power of the Reality Gem. As the red light bloomed with him and the Reality Gem as the center, strange things appeared from time to time throughout the room.

Grass, lava, butterflies, pencil sharpeners, flashlights, bows and arrows, ice cream, footballs...all kinds of unrelated things appear and disappear repeatedly.

For Lu Mingfei, who already has the power of three gems, although the power of the reality gem is extremely extraordinary, it will not take too long to absorb it.

……

Two days later.

Asgard, Tony, Thor and Jane walked side by side on the way to the library.

Tony carried the scepter that Lu Mingfei gave him: "This thing is quite useful. With it, I can read almost all the books in Asgard."

"It's okay even if there isn't one. Don't forget that I'm the prince of Asgard," Thor said on the side, "But most of the books in the library are boring. I seldom went there when I was in school."

"You don't like reading... Well, I can see that, it's normal." Tony looked at Thor with an expression that said "As expected, it should be so."

If Thor had a little interest in reading, he wouldn't have become the Avengers member whose intelligence is only higher than Hulk.

Jane remained silent.

These two days she deeply understood why Thor said Tony was not a mortal.

Of course, the books in Asgard's library were not paper books, but something similar to rune books. The amount of information stored in them varied. If it was less, it was about the same as an ordinary book on Earth, and if it was more, it was about the same as an ordinary library on Earth. Even with the same amount of information as a book on Earth, she still found it difficult to read, and it took her two days to finish half of the book - and this was based on the premise that the librarian helped her translate it into the Earth language.

Tony didn't even ask the administrator to translate it, he just "read" Asgard's book directly, and at a very fast speed. She didn't know how much Tony read in two days.

"Forget it, let's not go to the library today. I've been to the alchemy room and the mine before," Tony suddenly stopped and said, "Thor, can you take me to the mine today?"

"No problem. Let's go in this direction. The mineral warehouse is not far away. There are several cargo ships shuttling between the mine and the warehouse," Thor said. "It's more convenient for us to take the cargo ships. Asgard's mine is not actually in Asgard, but on a small planet near Asgard. It's more convenient to take the cargo ships."

"Uh... Thor, let me ask you something," Tony suddenly had something like goggles on his face, "The cargo ship you're talking about is definitely not black, and it doesn't look like a cross with half its head cut off, right?"

"Huh? Of course it doesn't look like this. Our cargo spaceship is also very artistic... Wait, you don't mean..." Thor suddenly reacted.

"Lucifer reported that a fleet was detected parked in space not far from Asgard," Tony said. "According to the records in the Asgard battleship database, their appearance is very consistent with the dark elves' battleships."

"It finally came," Thor frowned, "Why did it stop?"

"According to Lucifer's analysis, they stopped at the boundary of Asgard's current defense system, just a little bit outside the maximum detection distance, so your Asgard's own army should not have discovered them yet, but Lucifer's alert range is larger, so they can't hide from Lucifer." Tony said.

Saul was silent.

Our entire Asgard army...is not even as good as Lucifer's biological battleship?

"No! How do they know the boundary of Asgard's detection range!" Thor frowned.

"I don't know, but we can let the Iron Deadpools test it first to see the combat effectiveness of these dark elf fleets." Tony said.

"This is not good. They are coming for Asgard, so naturally it is the Asgard army that should deal with them." Thor hesitated.

"Asgardians' lives are lives too," Tony patted Thor's shoulder, "but Deadpool is different. Deadpool has no human rights."

……

In the Dark Elves' main ship, Hela stood in front of Malekith, holding a crystal that was more rust red in color.

“Is this the ether fragment?” Hela asked.

“To be precise, there will be no fragments of ether particles. This thing is actually the product of highly condensed energy in the ether, and it does have some of the power of ether particles.” Malekith said.

He didn't want to give the Aether fragment to Hela, as there were not many of these precious things left in the entire Dark Elf tribe. However, Hela had clues about the Reality Stone, so he had to exchange it. Another reason was that when Hela just boarded the battleship, she showed her strength, which directly dispelled his idea of ​​forcibly capturing Hela and forcing her to confess.

It’s really weird, how come Boll’s son and granddaughter are so strong!

Just as Malekith was cursing in his heart, a dark elf sitting in the radar area reported: "Leader! A large number of dark elf-like semi-mechanical life forms have been detected approaching rapidly!"

As he spoke, the dark elf turned on the screen. In the deep universe on the screen, the Iron Deadpools spread their membrane wings and flew silently like miniature space shuttles.

"Huh? What is this? Asgard's cannon fodder and suicide squad?" Malekith looked confused, he had never seen this thing before.

But he immediately shook his head in disdain: "Fire the secondary guns and kill them all, and then send out the ship-borne single-person frigates to clean up the fish that slipped through the net. I didn't expect that we would be discovered by Asgard, but using this kind of thing as a greeting gift, Asgard is underestimating us dark elves!"

Malekith's disdain is very justified. There are indeed some powerful life forms in the universe, whose own strength is stronger than the ship-borne single-person frigates on space battleships, but such powerful beings are generally only a small number of military elites of powerful civilizations, and their numbers are limited. These elite soldiers are the trump cards of a civilization's army. How could they be sent in large quantities as if they were free?
These things are cannon fodder no matter how you look at them!
Only Hela's expression changed slightly as she looked at the membrane wings spread out by the Iron Deadpool Legion on the screen.

The main ship was floating quietly, without even extending its secondary guns. Only the surrounding warships aimed their secondary guns at the flying Iron Deadpools. Then, dozens of dark red energy cannons from more than a dozen warships were fired at the same time!

While the secondary guns were firing, dozens of individual frigates flew out from the large warships, ready to clean up the fish that had escaped after a round of shelling.

However, as the explosion of the energy cannon subsided, the Iron Deadpools continued to fly at the original speed. Only the transparent crystals floating around the entire formation still had some dark red traces of energy reaction, and the alchemical matrix markings and golden eyes on their bodies were shining brighter.

Malekith: !!!
What the hell is this thing that Asgard has done!!!
