The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 2499 Stonehenge

A quarter of an hour later, Rogers and his party finally succeeded in arriving at Stonehenge, more than 100 kilometers southwest of London, which is located in Salisbury Plain, Wiltshire, England. No trace, everything is empty.

But Rogers knew in his heart that everything in front of him was just an illusion, and the real situation had been completely covered under magic.

According to the latest and accurate rumors, the more accurate construction of Stonehenge was around 2300 BC. On this plain, some towering boulders stood in a ring in the green wilderness. This is the most famous and mysterious place in the British Isles. of prehistoric relics.

This piece of ruins has always been full of mystery, and every rumor here is inseparable from magic.

On the surface, Stonehenge is composed of huge stones each weighing about 50 tons. Its main axis, the ancient road leading to the stone pillars, and the rising sun on the summer solstice morning are on the same line; The line connecting the stones points to the direction of the winter solstice sunset.

In Rogers' view, it is actually not too difficult to construct several complete concentric circles lined up by dozens of huge stone pillars. The pyramids of Egypt, the ancient Great Wall of the East, and the relics of ancient history They were all piled up bit by bit by human beings.

What is really admirable is that the astronomers who built these Stonehenge have been able to build here for thousands of years to observe celestial phenomena. In a sense, this place is very similar to the Greenwich Observatory.

Malekith chose the Observatory in England twice as his important base, which shows that this guy is very knowledgeable in astronomy and astrology.

However, things like astronomy and calendar are just the most superficial manifestation of this Stonehenge, and its real function is still above magic.

On the periphery of Stonehenge are ring-shaped ditches and mounds with a diameter of about 90 meters. There are 56 circular pits next to the inside. The most incredible thing about Stonehenge is the boulder in the center of Stonehenge. The highest of these boulders is 8 meters. The average weight is nearly 30 tons, and there are even huge stones weighing up to 7 tons that are placed horizontally on two erected stone pillars.

And before Malekith occupied this place, scientists had already detected at least 5 unknown monuments underground here, which were probably the remnants of religious ceremonies performed by ancient humans. After thousands of years, these monuments Things just sank deep into the ground.

There is no doubt that Malekith wants to use this place. As for how he uses it and what effect it will produce, this is beyond what Rogers can guess. In any case, he is not proficient in magic. The purpose of coming here is to investigate the reality of this place, Strange and Thor are the ones who really attack here, and Rogers is just a pawn to explore the way.

"It seems that he has long known that I will eventually come here." Wazlia's voice sounded behind Rogers. She arrived here not much later than Rogers. After helping Elizabeth solve all hidden dangers, She rushed here quickly.

And just as Wazlia said, Malekith has already seen through Rogers' fiction and reality. No matter what Wazlia does, he will definitely rush to Stonehenge in the end. Come here, then it is enough for Malekith, he is sure enough to take back this cursed warrior that once belonged to him here.

But will Rogers really do what he wants? Now that he has come to this place, how can Rogers not guard against all possible accidents.

"Some things have to be resolved after all, don't they?" Rogers sighed softly, then nodded to Hercules, and Hercules returned Rogers' Captain America's hammer without any hesitation. And this scene surprised Malekith, who was watching all this outside.

To be honest, Hercules, who is holding Rogers Captain America's Hammer and Hercules' golden mace at the same time, is Malekith's biggest worry all the time.

Losing the Dark Rainbow Bridge means that Malekith has lost all control of the outside world, especially Thor.

In the final analysis, Thor is Malekith's greatest enemy. Although Strange can threaten him with the Time Stone, only Thor, and only Thor is his fateful enemy.

Odin, Thor, their father and son have fought and killed Malekith for countless years. Although sometimes Malekith can have a slight upper hand, but in the end of each battle, he is always the one who loses. , That is to say, Malekith can come back again and again, otherwise, other people have already lost all the belief in fighting, and they will have the opportunity to kill Thor again like now.

For a long time, Malekith has suspected that the current Hercules, his real face is Thor, so he has never dared to act rashly.

But in fact, Malekith is more or less self-determined. If Thor really had this scheming, I am afraid he would not fall into the current situation. This person has always liked to use force to suppress others. Stu really knows Thor, I'm afraid he won't think so.

But to be honest, if Malekith wanted to deal with Asgard, how could he not have a detailed understanding of Thor, and the main reason why he is still so afraid today is that he has faced too many enemies, and these Everyone is not easy to mess with, just like Strange and Loki.

Now that Rogers has regained Captain America's hammer, in Malekith's view, either Rogers is playing tricks, or the Hercules in front of him is really Hercules, not Thor or anyone else, pretending secretly.

Standing in Stonehenge, Malekith is behind him on a 7-ton boulder that is placed across two erected stone pillars, firmly binding two people, two completely unconscious People, and these two people are Captain Marvel, Carol, and Elizabeth's brother, Brian Braddock.

Responsible for assisting Malekith in controlling the two of them was the last remaining war witch and a dozen other elite dark elf fighters.

At this time, the entire Stonehenge was shrouded in a layer of purple enchantment. Malekith could see Rogers and others through the enchantment, but Rogers and others could not see him through the enchantment. Although Malekith's eyes fell on Rogers and others at that time, his attention was indeed a little wandering, because what he really paid attention to was still Thor, and he didn't know whether he had come to the earth at this time suddenly.

Of course, Rogers and others couldn't notice Malekith's gaze, even Hercules and Wazlia. In front of their eyes, the whole boulder was very transparent, and they could see everything clearly at a glance, but they Everyone knows that Malekith must be hiding in it.

"Wanda, get ready!" Rogers turned his head and looked at the group of people who had already formed an array, especially Wanda the Scarlet Witch who was in the center of the array. She was the one who broke Malekith's illusion today. Candidates.

Luo Xuegen's strength is not strong enough, and Wazlia is because Malekith is too familiar with her. If she acts rashly under unknown circumstances, then it is very likely that Malekith will seize the opportunity. Come over and control her with one hand.

How could Malekith ignore the cursed warrior who had already been sent to him? You know, once the cursed warrior can be retrieved, Malekith will have many cards to deal with the superheroes like Thor and Earth. How could he completely ignore it.

So in this case, there is no certainty that Rogers will never let Wazlia make a move easily, and everything must be done after he finds out the truth.

The Scarlet Witch Wanda has an attack ability that is not inferior to Wazlia's, and even stronger under certain circumstances. At this time, Malekith, who underestimated Wanda's strength, quickly tasted regret.

After Rogers finished speaking, crimson energy particles shot up into the sky. After crossing a large circular arc in the sky, they ruthlessly impacted on the magic barrier covering the entire Stonehenge. Just like that, the magic barrier Immediately revealed in front of everyone.

Malekith originally planned to take advantage of this opportunity to attack Wazlia, but the moment the crimson magic hit the magic barrier, he immediately sensed countless chaotic and directionless forces directly penetrating into the magic. In the barrier, if he hadn't changed the direction in time, I am afraid that the entire magic barrier would have been torn a big hole, and it was at this time that Wazlia moved.
