Chapter 202 The Land of Nothingness As the spaceship traveled through space again, an extremely huge skull appeared in everyone's sight, causing Daisy, Skye and others to be amazed. Carol was also a little curious: "Levi, is this the legendary land of nothingness?" When she was in the Kree Empire, she was just a soldier and had no chance to move freely. The Void, the largest stolen goods den in the universe, and the largest red-light district in the universe not far away - the ice planet Ketrisha, have always been places where the Supreme Wisdom strictly prohibits any Kree from approaching. "Yes, it is said to be the head of an ancient god." This is not particularly strange, the living planet Ego is a living example. This is also the Collector's lair. Although the Collector's combat power is basically at the bottom in the Council of Elders of the Universe, even if he cannot defeat Silver Glider and Flame King, it should be relatively easy to deal with former messengers of the Uncle Swallow like Red Shift and Skywalker. In addition, he is a good friend of Gao Tianzun, who is one of the most powerful members of the Elder Council of the Universe. He is also a good person and has made many friends, so he can occupy this special "planet" which is unique in the universe. It's not just about doing business, it's also about mining the special minerals inside that big head. By now, the head of that ancient god has been basically hollowed out, and replaced by many buildings.
Just as everyone arrived, the Land of Nothingness was also very lively. At least four or five hundred spaceships were shuttling back and forth, and their shapes were all bizarre. On Earth, airplanes are often streamlined to combat air resistance. In the universe, there is no need to consider this issue at all, as their power is strong enough. Once traveling long distances, space shuttle will be used directly. There is no need to care about the appearance of the spacecraft. It can be modified at will. Moreover, fleets would occasionally clash over queuing issues, and would openly curse at each other over the regional radio or fire a few shots at each other as threats. But when Levi and his crew's small spaceship, which was decorated with the Nova Corps logo and shone with golden light, and looked quite classic, entered the area, the surroundings suddenly became quiet. No matter if they were fighting or swearing, everyone hurried to make way for fear of causing any misunderstanding. There were even people who took the initiative to ask if they needed help, and some who volunteered to be tour guides. Seeing this, Sif couldn't help but feel a little proud, and Levi nodded secretly. Even though Asgardians seldom go out, they rarely run into trouble whenever they do. This is entirely caused by Odin. In comparison, the Supreme Magicians of all generations were much more low-key. Except for Thanos, whose hometown is also in the solar system, and beings of the same level as Gao Tianzun, few ordinary people have even heard of the name of the Earth. However, these ordinary soldiers are mostly of no use to Levi and his men. Just as Levi was thinking this and letting the spaceship gradually descend towards the void, the danger suddenly reminded Levi. "Master, a special being that you marked before has appeared. It is Yondu among the plunderers." Levi was slightly more interested: "Oh? What does he think?" In general, the Predators are a very loose and special organization. Most of the time their members are space mercenaries, but if there is a suitable opportunity, they don't mind working part-time as pirates. It all depends on the character and style of the leader, whether the benefits are lucrative enough, etc. As far as Levi knows, Yondu has a good reputation among them. He robs very rarely and usually helps people do some half-illegal work and search for ruins.
Wars are happening all the time in the universe. There are always some people who are exterminated or die together, and the plunderers will also act as scavengers. Even if he occasionally works part-time as a space pirate, Yondu usually won't do anything too extreme. As long as the other party is willing to pay a portion of the bribe, he is willing to save some effort. At the same time, he has two more special features. One is that he kidnapped Star-Lord, who is the son of Jason, the king of the Spartan Empire. Jason's spaceship accidentally crashed on Earth and he had a child with an Earth woman. Later, he ran back to Sparta to inherit the throne, and then he remembered to look for his son. There must be a lot of filth in the royal family. He couldn't hand over this kind of task to his general, so he entrusted it to Yondu instead. Then Yondu fell in love with the child, and after taking him away, he did not return the child to Jason. Instead, he made up an excuse and left Star-Lord on the ship, thinking that maybe this information could be sold for some pocket money. Another special thing is that Yondu was once a member of the first generation of Guardians of the Galaxy. Back then, the space pirate race - the Badong people, massacred Yondu's hometown in Centauri and even blew up the entire planet. They were quite arrogant. For revenge, Yondu and other people who had a grudge against the Badong people, or simply couldn't stand it, formed the first generation of Guardians of the Galaxy and carried out a series of revenge actions against the Badong people. As for the result, it can only be said that it is a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. Anyway, up to now, the Badong people are still engaged in their old business, just like the Chitauri. In Levi's opinion, the other members of the first generation Guardians of the Galaxy, such as the Crystal Man, are mostly not worth mentioning. The only one he cares about is Starhawk. Just like the Black Panther of Wakanda is to the Black Panther God, and the holder of the Jade Tiger Talisman is to the White Tiger God, the Star Eagle is the spokesperson for the animal god - the Eagle God. But probably since it was the first time to play this kind of thing, Eagle God made a small mistake when choosing the spokesperson. Starka Vaughn and his stepsister and wife, Aleta Ogol, were chosen together, and only after the two merged together did they become the first Star Hawk. They can manipulate light to a certain extent, and can fly at the speed of light at their peak. Super strength, super defense, and immunity to disease are also basic abilities. In terms of strength, Eagle God, Black Panther and White Tiger are basically at the same level, but when it comes to treating spokespersons, Eagle God is obviously much more generous. Star Eagle is also a well-known existence in the universe. But after becoming Star Eagles, the two who were both brother and sister and lover only had one body left, which inevitably led to all kinds of inconveniences in life. After enjoying the benefits of the power for a while, they soon got bored. They didn't want to continue to merge, but wanted to live like normal people, even have children or something. So they asked the Star Eagle to remove their abilities, and the Eagle God was very happy to let them get their wish. Then the brother and sister became ordinary people, and later they seemed to have given birth to triplets. As a well-known figure among the plunderers, the fact that Star Eagle had given birth to a child was naturally recorded in the Heart of the Universe, and Wei Jing and Levi also knew about it. Similarly, it is only natural that they have gradually disappeared in recent years. After all, without the power of the Eagle God, the two of them might be considered relatively powerful among the plunderers, but they are not worth mentioning in the universe. One shot would turn them into ashes on the spot. If there is a chance, Levi thinks he might try to find the token of the Eagle God and see if anyone on his side can become the new generation of Star Eagle and get some power for free. Even if you fail, it doesn’t matter, after all, there is no cost of trial and error. "They claim to have just captured some special prey. Asgard should be very interested in them." As he said this, Wei Jing threw out a short video clip and dozens of photos.
It shows some guys who are completely black, but have white braids and wear white masks. Before anyone else could react, Sif and Brunhilde shouted at the same time: "It's the Dark Elves!" Levi became more and more interested: "They actually captured some dark elves? Interesting, Dangerous, tell him, we will talk about it in detail later." "Good host." Carol raised her hand like a schoolboy. "Hey, could anyone explain to us these so-called dark elves?" Glancing at Levi and seeing that he had no objection, Sif said quickly: "Born in eternal silence, stealing all light, this is a story we often heard in our childhood. They were once the masters of Watt Alheim in the Nine Realms." Brunhilde added, "The dark elves possess a very powerful artifact. They once attempted to plunge the entire universe into eternal darkness and spread the flames of war to every corner of the Nine Realms." "So Asgard waged war against it, killed all the dark elves, and the artifact was sealed away." Daisy interrupted: "But now it seems obvious that this is not the case, is it?" She was in a good mood now, not only because of everything Levi had shown her, but also because when she was on Sakaar before, she had a sudden idea and teamed up with Rocket, who had been working as a mercenary in the universe and might be very familiar with gladiatorial combat and gambling, to place a bet and won a lot of money. Sif and Brunhilde looked at each other in silence. The facts were already before them and they could not question them at all. Coupled with the fact that Hela massacred the Valkyries, they couldn't help but feel suspicious. How many things had Odin hidden from them? Levi chuckled, Odin was hiding many things. In fact, not only were the dark elves not completely exterminated, but they might have been divided into three and broken down into smaller pieces. Some of them drifted into the universe and became space pirates. Even their lair was destroyed by Asgard. Now they are poor dead men with almost nothing except their lives. Naturally, they are very brave enough to risk their lives. Moreover, their style is extremely cruel, and there are basically few survivors under their command. When they encounter weak prey, they usually kill them first and then loot all their property. The spaceships will basically not be preserved, because the dark elves' spaceships all place extreme emphasis on speed and agility, and ordinary spaceships will only become a burden. They are even more accustomed to robbing each other of their enemies. As long as they can defeat them, no matter what race or power the enemy is, they will basically not let them go. This has completely ruined their reputation, and few fools are willing to do business with them. No matter how high the benefits are, you have to be alive to get them. If they encounter a tough opponent, they will use special forbidden spells to transform some of the dark elves into special cursed warriors, forcibly throw them into the opponent's spaceship to cause damage, and then they will take the opportunity to escape. Cursed warriors are all expendable. Once transformed, even if they are not killed, they will usually die quickly within a short period of time, serving as cannon fodder. But the cursed warriors are extremely powerful. Due to their different physical conditions, they can easily possess hundreds of tons of strength. In a space war where combat is usually carried out with all kinds of high-powered energy weapons and beam weapons, sheer force may not mean much. After all, any crane with a bit of technological content weighs in at least 10,000 tons. But if you throw the cursed warriors into the enemy's spaceship and carry out the ancient boarding battle, the effect will be completely different. It won’t be long before the spaceship is scrapped, even if all the people on it are alive. The dark elves use this special method to make all the powerful forces look extremely disgusting.
Unless all the dark elves were killed at once, if they seized the opportunity and invaded a resource planet, it would basically mean that the entire planet would be burned, killed, and looted. Even the Shi'ar Empire or the Kree Empire could not deploy an army on every planet that was large enough to resist the sneak attacks of the Dark Elves. Even if they defeated the dark elves, they would often find that the other side was extremely poor, and the little spoils they got were not even enough to consume the energy of the spacecraft. Therefore, even though the Dark Elves are notorious, they still manage to get by. Perhaps only the Nova Corps, which hates evil and has a strong hatred for evil, is still tirelessly hunting them down. The Nova Corps' territory only consists of one planet, Xandar, and they don't have any decent large spaceships at all. As a result, they are not afraid of sneak attacks or boarding battles by the Dark Elves. At the same time, the combat effectiveness of the Novae is also better than that of the Curse Warriors. The main characteristics of the Curse Warriors are good offense and defense and decent speed, but they can neither fly nor have any long-range attack means, so they are just toys for the Novae. Some of the dark elves turned around and drilled into the earth. Marvel's Earth is hollow and is divided into several layers. Races that only exist in fantasy worlds, such as goblins, gnolls, orcs, demons, minotaurs, dragons, etc., all exist. They were either summoned from another world by various wizards, or created alive, or created by the gods or other random races as part of experiments. Anyway, the dark elves joining in is not surprising. The interior of the earth has its own order. As long as they don't come to the ground to cause trouble, Kamar-Taj and the Sorcerer Supreme usually don't bother with these small fry. Of course, their lives cannot be compared with those of their compatriots in the universe. Those demons underground are definitely crazier and more desperate than the dark elves. They can only be considered to be barely alive. As for the last part, it is their leader, Malekith, who was nicknamed "Spicy Chicken Strips" by Levi. There was very little information about him, and there was no relevant record in the Heart of the Universe. In Levi's opinion, he was either hiding among the pirates, secretly controlling the actions of his subordinates, or accumulating strength somewhere. Anyway, what is certain is that not only is he not dead, but he is always ready to take revenge on Asgard. What interests Levi about the dark elves is that the artifact they rely on - the ether particles, is essentially the reality gem among the Infinity Gems! Reality gems can not only create real fantasies, but can also turn the fake into the real, and the fantasy into reality, as long as the user is willing. Theoretically, it can realize any dream and wish of the holder. All scientific rules or natural laws are meaningless in front of it because it can rewrite these things at will. However, the reality gem should still be in a sealed state, and it will only appear in the world when the nine planets align once every five thousand years. According to the plot, there are still two years left. Before that, no one knows where the ether particles are, let alone taking them out. But Levi thought that if possible, he should see if he could get some useful information from the dark elves. First, determine the matter of the ether particles, and then it would be best to kill all the dark elves, including Spicy Chicken Shreds. In this way, when the nine stars align, there will be fewer people who know the inside story and competitors. It seems that even in the movie version, not even Odin knew that there were still survivors of the Dark Elves. However, in this world, Levi felt that Odin probably knew about it, and he might even intend to pass the relevant information to the universe. Otherwise, how could even a plunderer like Yondu know to come to the door and try to sell the Dark Elves? Perhaps, after I have settled things here, it will be time to have a face-to-face talk with Odin.
As for the power of the spicy shredded chicken itself, it is not worth mentioning, at least for Levi. The reason why the Dark Elves were able to run rampant in the Nine Realms was not because of magic, but more because of the power of ether particles. Without ether particles, the combat effectiveness of their entire clan dropped rapidly. Up to now, except for cursed warriors, ordinary dark elves also use energy guns to fight. The only thing that is slightly worth mentioning is probably a special gravity grenade. Once activated, it can cause objects within a few meters to shrink and collapse inward, and its power is quite good whether it is against living people or buildings. While sorting out a lot of information, the spaceship soon landed in the void. When the hatch opened, many people couldn't help but cover their noses. Even Carol, who was used to living in a military camp and had a good endurance, was no exception. There is no way, the surrounding environment is just too harsh. There was sewage everywhere, the air was filled with all kinds of foul smells, and wherever you looked, there were many rotten or broken corpses of small animals. No wonder many people around were wearing things like gas masks, because even these strange-looking aliens found it unbearable here! Skye couldn't help but complain: "I feel like I'm back in New York!" Daisy chuckled and said, "Levi, no wonder you made us all wear Nova helmets. You've already realized this, right?" The Nova helmet comes with a range of life-support functions, and it's really simple to just block out some bad odors. So now, except for Groot who doesn't care about these things, even Rocket was generously given a helmet by Levi. The Nova helmet is extremely stretchable and can be adjusted according to the wearer's body shape, so he can wear it. The reason why we smell the stench is simply because no one chooses to actively activate this function. The Nova Helmet will purify toxic or harmful substances, but it will not actively isolate ordinary odors. After all, when conducting some reconnaissance or tracking tasks, smell will also be a very important clue. Before Levi could respond, the blue-skinned man who had already landed in front and was waiting for Levi and others couldn't help but want to complain. Just for this, he not only gave each of these women a Nova Helmet, but even gave one to the furry bunny? It must be said that he is worthy of being a rising star general from Asgard, with his wealthy family and great wealth. But this might be a good idea for me. Those dark elves might be able to be sold for a high price! When he thought of this, the smile on Yongdu's face became brighter and more sincere. He immediately gave an awkward salute: "Hello, General Nova, I am the Plunderer - Yondu." Levi glanced behind Yondu. Among the many aliens, Star-Lord, a hybrid of Earthling and Spartan, seemed so different. At this moment he was looking at the people wearing Nova uniforms with great curiosity. For the plunderers, this was a very rare opportunity. Normally they would not even have time to hide. Levi nodded slightly: "Take me to have a look, as long as I am satisfied, the price is not a problem." He didn't ask any nonsense like where the other party was caught, because as long as those dark elves were real, he could find out all the information he wanted from their brains by himself! The others looked at Yondu with a little curiosity. The mechanical implant on his head looked a bit like a shark fin, and no one knew what special function it had. But Levi knew very well that it was an auxiliary tool used by Yongdu to control a flying arrow.
However, his arrows can only kill some random soldiers on the surface and are useless in the universe. A slightly more reliable large spaceship, in addition to energy shields and so on, often has a hull of dozens or hundreds of meters. The highest-level warships of the Shi'ar and Kree empires are thousands of miles long, and their width, defense, etc. are also quite exaggerated. Even if it is left there and allowed to be bombarded by the enemy's artillery, there is no telling how long it will take to destroy it, let alone it can be destroyed by a mere arrow. The first generation of Guardians of the Galaxy was more like Starhawk playing with a bunch of pendants. After Starhawk gave up his abilities, Yondu and his team had no ability to continue to take revenge on the Badong people. Hearing Levi's words, Yongdu laughed out loud: "Okay, please follow me!" To be honest, as a plunderer, this was the first time for him to do business with the Nova Corps. Although he had always been very prudent in his actions and had not left any obvious evidence, and therefore had never been wanted or hunted by the Nova Corps, he still felt a little guilty. But after the communication just now, he found that this rising star general from Asgard who suddenly appeared not only had no special contempt or aversion to him, but was very generous to him! Soon Levi saw several imprisoned dark elves. It was obvious that they had been severely beaten before. Not only were their masks broken, their faces and noses were bruised, but their bodies were also covered with smelly wounds. Even Yondu didn't treat or disinfect them, he just simply bandaged their wounds to make sure they wouldn't die on the ship. And probably because they hadn't eaten for a while, all the dark elves looked weak and were either sitting or lying down, trying to conserve their strength as much as possible. Noticing Levi's realization, Yongdu smiled and said, "These dark elves are notorious. They will not even let go of the elderly, the weak, and children. I don't think it's necessary to be too nice to them." After hearing these words, Carol and others, who had just learned about the many evil deeds of the dark elves from Sif and the Heart of the Universe, did not feel any sympathy. Instead, they felt some disgust and even hatred. How should I put it? The sins committed by the dark elves fully deserve the suffering they have endured. According to the information currently available, dark elves, regardless of gender or age, are all brutal bandits and robbers. Since they have a relatively long lifespan and each of them has countless blood on their hands, it would be almost impossible for any unjust, false or wrongful convictions to occur if their entire clan were killed. At this time, the dark elves noticed the movement of the crowd and opened their eyes one after another. When they saw Sif and Brunhilde, who were dressed in obvious Asgard style, they could not help but be stunned. When they noticed the Meow Hammer on Levi's waist, they were all a little confused. Then some of the dark elves shouted and screamed, their faces full of panic, while some of the dark elves directly slammed into the walls of the cell like crazy, thinking only of committing suicide. It's obvious that they are fully aware of what the Meow Hammer represents. Once they fall into the hands of Levi and others, what awaits them may not just be simple death! Yongdu suddenly became anxious. He never expected that these guys still had the energy to commit suicide in this situation. If they all died, it would be worthless! But before he could take any action, Levi's mind moved, and all the dark elves stopped moving collectively. Their eyes were dull and they completely lost focus. Yongdu was suddenly startled and looked back. Sure enough, Levi's eyes were emitting a faint white light. This must be some special mental or spiritual ability! In fact, Levi was indeed reading the memories of these dark elves, and his current outward behavior was actually completely unnecessary. This was the first time he had used this ability in public, and he felt it necessary to deliberately create some more obvious signs to let others know. At a critical moment, it might play an unexpected role. As for the girls around him, after they followed him, he had naturally told them in various ways and reassured them that he would not snoop into their hearts. His assurance was trustworthy, and at the same time, the bionic bird Barbara also fully understood that all of SHIELD's plans would fail.
Levi has this ability, and it was probably exposed when she, Black Widow, and Sharon Carter first stepped into Hextech. Fortunately, she has now chosen Levi, and in just a few days, she has seen or gained many things that were unimaginable in the past. After returning to Earth, the first thing she will do is to resign from SHIELD! After a few breaths, Levi put down his hands, feeling very happy. He had already figured out the origins of these dark elves. A few days ago, they were lured by a fleet of the Shi'ar Empire. Hundreds of spaceships were blown up on the spot, and 99% of the dark elves on board died. Only some of the luckier ones tried to escape by using micro-spacecraft. Then Yondu took the opportunity to capture a few of them. Yondu originally planned to sell them to collectors, but he didn't expect to meet him by chance. It doesn’t really matter whether these ordinary dark elves are dead or alive. What’s important is that they really know where the spicy chicken shreds are hiding! Just as he had speculated before, Spicy Chicken Strips was indeed not dead. He was currently hiding on a resource planet that had been abandoned for many years, using various looted materials to build a new home for the dark elves. He always dreams of taking revenge on Asgard and even regaining dominance over the Nine Realms. Now he is waiting for the moment when the nine stars converge, ready to take the opportunity to search for traces of the ether particles. The dream is beautiful, but it’s a pity that Nicki Minaj shouldn’t have included the earth in it. Once the earth is involved, even if he holds the reality gem, it is impossible for him to succeed! Together with Spicy Chicken Shreds, there were nearly 20,000 Dark Elves and seven or eight hundred Dark Elf warships. This was all the assets they had after being driven out of the Nine Realms and wandering in the universe for many years. But now, Levi decided to find them new owners! Levi smiled and said, "Not bad, Yongdu, I am very satisfied!" With a thought, Wei Jing had already transferred 100,000 credit points to Yongdu according to his previous offer. Then Levi signaled Sif to kidnap the two dark elves and take them back to Asgard as trophies, and at the same time test Odin's attitude towards this. Seeing Levi being so straightforward, Yongdu's old face was full of smiles, but before he could say a few nice words, his expression suddenly froze. Because Levi asked a question that was very special to him. "Yongdu, are you still in contact with Star Eagle and the others?" Yongdu's eyes wandered a little: "They retired many years ago, and I don't want to disturb their lives." In fact, it was because after he went to Earth and brought Star-Lord back, Star-Hawk and his wife hated him for breaking the rules. They, the Guardians of the Galaxy, are a righteous organization established to resist the Badong people. How can they be human traffickers? Coupled with some previous conflicts, the two sides had already parted ways and had no contact for many years. Levi said in an unquestionable tone: "That was before. Now I need you to contact them and ask them to come and see me in person. I am very interested in the title of Star Eagle." Yongdu was stunned again, and he subconsciously wanted to refuse. Because he felt something was not right. From what Levi said, it seemed that he had some bad intentions in looking for Star Eagle. More importantly, he didn't seem to intend to give himself money! Levi didn't give him a chance to refuse. He just snorted and said, "Yondu, you don't want Jason and the entire Sparta to know that you kidnapped Jason's son and raised him as a raider, right?"
