Chapter 81: Reality Stone

Malekith tried to resist, but a powerful, distorted force field took control of his body, preventing him from moving. The Mind Stone floated around Alex, glowing with a faint yellow light, and Malekith's perception was instantly amplified thousands of times. Even the friction between his skin and clothing, under this heightened perception, felt like an excruciating torture.

Alex lightly touched Malekith, and a surge of immense energy burst from beneath him, gradually disintegrating his body while keeping him fully conscious, unable to slip into unconsciousness. All he could do was despair as he felt his body slowly disappear, experiencing the terrifying pain that cut deep into his soul. He wanted to scream, but under the influence of the Mind Stone, he could not move a muscle; even though his entire body was convulsing with pain, he could not make a sound.

Seeing Malekith's twisted and contorted face, Alex smiled faintly. Then, with a slight push of his hand, the terrifying repulsive force instantly destroyed the Dark Elves' warship. The remaining metal debris flew into the void beyond Asgard, falling into the endless cosmic abyss. After dealing with Malekith, Alex suddenly sensed something, and with a look of joy, turned his gaze to Jane Foster.

With the Reverse Curse Technique constantly at work, the Aether Particles finally separated completely from Jane Foster! Alex waved his right hand, and a stream of deep red particles flowed out of Jane's body. Once the Aether Particles were fully extracted, Jane fell unconscious. Alex touched Jane Foster and immediately healed the damage inside her body. Then, he directed the Reverse Curse Technique at the Aether Particles. Without a host, the Aether Particles were easily affected by Alex, their energy becoming less volatile but more concentrated.

The Aether Particles rapidly compressed and gathered at Alex's fingertip. In just a few moments, all the Aether Particles coalesced into a single, brilliant red gem: the Reality Stone!

Apart from possessing infinite energy, the Reality Stone also had the power to alter reality. Although the changes it made were not permanent, they were still formidable! At this point, Alex's body had fully recovered, and he directly absorbed the energy from the Reality Stone!

[Energy Points +1]

[Energy Points +1]

[Energy Points +1]

...

The system's notifications flashed rapidly as the energy points increased quickly. Alex channeled the energy points into the System, which visibly increased. In just a few minutes, the Fusion Degree surpassed 10% and continued to rise until Alex's body became fatigued again. By then, the Fusion Degree had reached:

[System Fusion Degree: 13%!]

Furthermore, upon reaching 10% fusion, Alex unlocked a new skill!

[System Fusion Degree: 10%]

[New Skill Unlocked: Unknown Wings · Black]

[Unknown Wings · Black lv1 (1/100): Manipulate phase forces in space to form black wings, greatly enhancing the user's power!]

Black wings suddenly unfolded behind Alex, his strength rapidly increasing as they spread. Simultaneously, Alex felt a significant boost in his computational ability, akin to a precisely engineered computer. Even the power of his vector manipulation saw a substantial enhancement.

Not only that, but the powers of Gojo Satoru, which had fully merged with him, also experienced a boost, despite not originally belonging to Accelerator.

He extended the black wings in front of him. Unlike Accelerator's, Alex's wings were more controllable; even at level one, he could deploy them at will without going berserk, as Accelerator did.

Moreover, his black wings were more solid, resembling real objects rather than the usual vortex-like forms of Accelerator's wings, which seldom looked like actual wings.

Sensing his current state, Alex was quite satisfied. Even at level one, the black wings provided a considerable enhancement. He wondered what the higher levels of the black wings, or the white wings, colorless wings, and ultimately the platinum wings, and even the final Abyss state, would look like.

The black wings behind him suddenly expanded to ten meters in length, and Alex broke the sound barrier in an instant, flying towards the interior of Asgard!

Returning to the initial room with Jane Foster, he found Thor and Frigga gathered around an elderly, one-eyed man. To Alex's Six Eyes, this old man was like a blazing sun; the energy inside him was stronger than even the Sorcerer Supreme, so powerful that his aged body could barely contain it and was continuously being harmed by it!

Seeing Alex's return, Thor immediately rushed over to embrace Jane Foster, whom Alex was casually holding.

Upon confirming that Jane Foster was safe and that the Aether Particles had been removed from her body, Thor realized this was Alex's doing and gratefully said to him, "Alex, thank you! You not only helped me repel the invading Dark Elves from Asgard, but you also cured Jane. From now on, you will always be Asgard's greatest friend!"

Alex smiled and replied, "No need to thank me. This was merely a transaction. While we are on good terms, don't expect me to give you any discounts."

As Thor was about to say something more, the nearby King Odin, who had been observing Alex closely, suddenly praised, "What an incredible young man. Your power is nearly at my level and continues to grow inexhaustibly...

If I didn't know you were a mutant, I might have mistaken you for a lord of some grand dimension."

From Odin's perspective, the young man before him seemed to contain endless potential and unlimited power, something he had never seen before. Based on his judgment, as long as Alex did not fall, he could at least become a being of single-universe level power.

Odin continued, "Soldiers, bring out the three treasures!"

At Odin's command, several soldiers entered the room, each holding a different artifact radiating immense power.

There were the Ever-Burning Eternal Flame, the frost-radiating Casket of Ancient Winters, and a finely crafted Infinity Gauntlet!

With a gentle expression, Odin addressed Alex, "These are the rewards Thor promised you. The people of Asgard never let down a friend!

Even though it was just a deal, you still saved Asgard. Just as Thor said, mighty warrior from Midgard, you will always be Asgard's most valued friend!"

Alex accepted the three treasures without hesitation, storing them in his pocket dimension. Then, looking at the weak but supremely powerful King Odin Borson, he smiled brightly and replied, "Of course..."

Having resolved matters in Asgard, and after bidding farewell to Thor and the others, Alex returned to his villa on Earth through a portal.

But just as he returned, he sensed, through his Six Eyes, several figures radiating intense energy quickly approaching him! A faint smile curled on his lips — it seemed there was more fun ahead!
