Lin Feng, having acquired what he wanted, immediately shifted his focus.

He returned to the center of the temple's main hall, observing several Asgardian warriors surrounding the motionless Destroyer on the ground, performing some strange actions.

It seemed they were trying to awaken the Destroyer.

However, Lin Feng's arrival startled them all, and they quickly turned away, pretending not to know anything.

Upon spotting Lin Feng, the warriors immediately launched into a discussion about what to eat for dinner.

Lin Feng slowly walked towards the group, coldly scanning them. His gaze lingered briefly on the still-unconscious Lia before moving on.

Good, that disgusting guy is still out.

"Who among you is an engineer capable of repairing the Bifrost?"

Lin Feng asked, but the men remained silent.

Two individuals in the crowd seemed ready to step forward, but they were held back by those around them.

"Don't move. This guy might be planning a rebellion. Do you want to betray Odin?"

The person next to the engineer whispered, tugging at his arm.

Lin Feng immediately noticed the commotion. He had no desire to play games with these Asgardian citizens; he had achieved his goal, and they were no longer of use to him.

Whoosh!!!

Lin Feng vanished from his spot in an instant, like a fleeting shadow.

Moments later, he stood before the engineer, his expression indifferent.

"You... you want to..."

Before the man could finish, Lin Feng grabbed him by the neck and squeezed hard.

Then, before the man could die, several grotesque tentacles erupted from Lin Feng's body, devouring him alive.

The scene instantly petrified everyone around him.

"Aaaaaah!!!!"

"A demon!! He's a demon!!"

"He must have brought the plague! He's the source of the plague!!!"

In their panic, the last man's words weren't far from the truth.

Lin Feng was, in fact, the culprit behind Asgard's current state.

"What's with all the noise?! I'm a demon? Hahahaha!!!"

Lin Feng roared, his expression filled with hatred as he glared at the people around him.

He looked as if Asgard had wiped out his entire clan.

"And what are you? A bunch of hypocrites? Or gods of slaughter? You've probably forgotten your own history, haven't you? Do you really think Asgard achieved its current state through peace?!"

After his impassioned speech, Lin Feng abruptly raised his head, his gaze fixed on the murals on the ceiling of the temple's main hall.

The whitewashed lies were like masks.

Suddenly, two beams of energy erupted from his eyes, blasting the mural depicting Odin and Laufey's peace treaty.

The Energy Ray relentlessly destroyed the mural, causing countless heavy stone blocks to crash down.

The surrounding Asgardian citizens scattered, fleeing from the falling debris.

Once Lin Feng had destroyed the entire mural, he retracted the energy beams from his eyes.

Beneath the surface, another layer of murals was revealed.

These murals were dominated by blood-red hues, instantly evoking thoughts of slaughter.

The painting depicted a valiant woman in black and green armor, with sword-like spikes on her head, wielding weapons alongside a middle-aged Odin, charging towards the other realms of the Nine Realms.

Odin's face was filled with a ruthless expression of war, a stark contrast to his usual solemnity and reverence, making him look like a war-monger.

The Asgardian citizens gasped in shock at the sight.

It was the first time they had seen their nation's hidden history.

"That's... Odin? Who is that woman?"

"I don't know, I've never seen her... Is this the true origin of Asgard?"

"The peace we've always proclaimed is a lie. This is the truth."

The bloody history was like the dismembered remains of their enemies laid bare before them. Shame and even guilt crept across the faces of the surrounding citizens.

Some lowered their heads, while others broke down in tears, their long-held beliefs shattered.

Lin Feng scanned their expressions, a slight smile curving his lips.

Yes, that's it.

Your nation isn't as good as you thought. Your king is a liar, and everything you believe is a false pretense.

While the people were still reeling in sorrow, Lin Feng once again moved at high speed.

He instantly grabbed Lorelei, who was craning her slender swan-like neck, and knocked her unconscious before she could even cry out.

Then, Lin Feng instantly left the place, rushing away.

There was nothing else he needed here.

He had already obtained the Eternal Flame and absorbed Asgard's engineers. With some time spent researching that knowledge, Lin Feng would be able to deduce most of Asgard's technology, including the Bifrost.

As for Lorelei, Lin Feng simply found her ability interesting and wanted to collect it.

After finding a quiet place and devouring Lorelei, he obtained her unique ability of charm.

After the Blacklight Virus modified and evolved it, this ability wasn't just effective on the opposite sex; it even worked on the same sex, making it truly all-encompassing.

And now, just by looking at Lin Feng, one could sense a unique charm about him that was hard to describe.

This charm was like an invisible form of psychological hypnosis, luring those around him to approach.

"This harvest wasn't bad. I'll go back and study, integrate the technology of the Dark Elves and Asgard, and then try out the Time Machine and Time Portal."

Lin Feng used the Tesseract to open a golden portal and stepped through it.

After stepping through this portal, he returned to his base.

Back at the base, Lin Feng watched as the large hole in the ceiling of his base was being repaired by small robots, and it looked like it would be finished soon.

"Black Doctor, get the Time Machine ready. I'll need it later."

Lin Feng didn't plan to stay and rest for long. Although the crisis on Earth had been resolved for him, the crisis in the universe still existed. He didn't know where the Time Stone had gone, and the Reality Stone was likely given to that idiot Thor by the Dark Elves.

When Lin Feng was in Asgard, he used his eyes to look but couldn't find the Reality Stone.

The only possibility was that it was with the Collector.

The Power Stone was still in his drawer. Lin Feng planned to open the shell of this Gem after he had thoroughly researched the technology of the Dark Elves and Asgard.

As for the Space Stone, it was probably with Sun Wukong.

He was accidentally teleported away by Sun Wukong's Ruyi Jingu Bang back then. Lin Feng thought it was likely that the dwarves had tampered with the Ruyi Jingu Bang, and then it happened to react with the Space Stone, which resulted in the loss.

So, in all likelihood, as long as he found Sun Wukong, he should be able to find the Space Stone as well.

As for the Soul Stone...

Lin Feng was silent. If this Gem didn't work out, he would have to let Thanos go and get it.

Moreover, Lin Feng and Thanos would definitely clash. After all, Thanos's goal was the Gems, and Lin Feng's goal was also the Gems. With conflicting goals, they would eventually clash.
