Of course, the SHIELD’s surveillance team had no idea what Lin Rui was thinking. Although Lin Rui found them, he didn’t mean to let them know this fact. It was no big deal to see them anyway. In addition, SHIELD should not know the existence of the earth’s sorcerers, which makes Mirage Knight’s identity even more mysterious. Maybe Lin Rui can do something with the earth’s sorcerers.
Brush!
And so, after chatting with Ancient One, Lin Rui drives his hoverboard toward downtown New York. Still, Lin Rui had a feeling that he was missing something.
Buzz ~
As Lin Rui flew between New York’s high-rise buildings, his cell phone suddenly vibrated. Slowing down the hoverboard, Lin Rui reached out and reached for his phone.
“Oops! Today I said I’d take Peter and Harry to see Thor!” Seeing Peter’s name on the caller ID on his cell phone, Lin Rui suddenly remembered what had forgotten.
It turned out that today Lin Rui originally planned to take Peter and Harry to meet Thor after leaving X Academy. This was a pre-planned thing. But he didn’t expect to meet up with Rick and David halfway and followed them to Kamar-Taj. This trip took more than an hour and Peter and Harry must have been waiting for long.
“Hey! Peter, I’m already on the road! Coming soon!” Lin Rui answered the phone and shouted without waiting for Peter on the other side to say anything.
Brush!
“You……”
Card!
Then, while Peter still wanted to say something, Lin Rui had just hung up. The next second, the hoverboard shot up to top speed, zooming through the New York skyline.
…
At an intersection in Queens, New York, three blocks from Lin Rui’s home, Peter hangs up the phone with a puzzled look on his face.
“Did Jackson say anything? Where is he now?” Harry asked, who was standing next to Peter when he saw his face. They had been waiting an hour longer. Lin Rui, who was supposed to have arrived early, had not yet arrived. They thought something had happened to him.
“He said he is coming soon. However, I think he has forgotten us.” Putting away the phone, Peter said helplessly.
Harry: “Hehe ~”
Two minutes later, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in a lane behind the corner where Peter and Harry stood. They turned to look and saw Lin Rui running out of the lane.
“Haha! Something suddenly came up! Sorry!” Running out of the alley, Lin Rui looks at Peter and Harry in front of him and says sheepishly when he realized that he should have called to let them know but he was so nervous to face the Ancient One that he didn’t have time to think much about it.
“Where have you been? Didn’t you leave the X-Academy long ago?” When Lin Rui finally appeared, Peter asked curiously.
“Er … I met someone on my way back and went to Kamar-Taj.” Lin Rui answers truthfully, having previously spoken to Peter and Harry about the sorcerers of Earth.
“Kamar-Taj? Where is that?” Peter looked puzzled at the name of such a strange place.
However, Harry seemed to know where Kamar-Taj was. However, he did not believe that Lin Rui could go to Kamar-Taj and come back in an hour.
“Kamar-Taj ?! But that’s in the Himalayas, how did you get there? Did that woman in X-Men who could teleport take you there?” Surprised, Harry asked directly. When Harry asked this sentence, he was already thinking whether X-Men had a secret base in the Himalayas. If so, then X-Men is really hidden.
“Uh ~ no, it’s another organization. I told you before that there was a group of sorcerers who were protecting the earth in secret. They were looking for me.” Anyway, Lin Rui had previously spoken to Peter and Harry about the sorcerers of earth, so he didn’t keep it from them this time.
“Sorcerers?!” Peter and Harry were very surprised to hear Lin Rui’s answer.
Last time, because of Venom and the Demon of another world, Peter and Harry fought and they were rescued by the Sorcerers. Lin Rui’s identity was also revealed after that incident. After that, Lin Rui also briefly explained to them about the sorcerers. However, because they were controlled by Venom and the Demon, neither Peter nor Harry had any impression or knowledge of the sorcerers.
“It was the Sorcerer Supreme, he was looking for me for something, and I went to Kamar-Taj with them. But now it’s okay, he just wanted to talk to me.” Lin Rui and Ancient One’s conversation was a secret, and Lin Rui wouldn’t tell anyone, including Peter and Harry.
“Oh, it’s okay then. Now, you should take us to see your friend Thor.” Peter did not mind that Lin Rui didn’t tell himself what the sorcerer was looking for and went on.
“Last time you said that we would be surprised to meet your friend, we have been very curious since then. Don’t let us down now,” Harry said from the side.
“Well, it’s close to where Thor lives, and he’s in his apartment today. As for whether he will disappoint you, I don’t think he will.” With a smile, Lin Rui walks in one direction as he speaks and Peter and Harry followed.
…
While Lin Rui is on his way to meet Thor with Peter and Harry, the Washington SHIELD headquarters has received the full message from the team monitoring Mirage Knight. SHIELD took the two new contacts with Mirage Knight very seriously and immediately sent the message to Director Fury.
Thunk, thunk, thunk
In Fury’s office on the top floor of SHIELD, Fury was sitting on a chair, his right hand resting on the armrest was beating the chairs handle rhythmically. On the computer screen in front of him, all the videos sent by the team observing Mirage Knight, as well as the audio analyzed by the staff were on display.
“There is no trace of information about these two people in the system. They are like ghosts, they don’t seem to exist.” While beating the armrest rhythmically, Fury muttered the results after analysis.
Because Rick and David did not wear any masks, their faces were quickly searched and analyzed. However, to the surprise of SHIELD professionals, these two people were not in their system. One must know that SHIELD, as an organization with great power in the world has many resources and there are only a few people they can’t find, except for those who are not born and some indigenous people. “Of course, people with professional anti-reconnaissance capabilities like Bucky are also excluded from this.”
What’s more, the “Project Insight” that Hydra implemented while still lurking in the SHIELD was to check the data of all the people in the world. Although the “Project Insight” was not implemented in the end, the preparatory work was completed, and two adults like Rick and David should not be missing from its database.
“Are these people the forces behind Mirage Knight? They have the ability to open a space door at any time, and they are not Mutants.” Looking at the clear video after the analysis, Fury thought with a frown.
Now the League of Defender and SHIELD are working together, but only against Hydra. And there’s still not enough information on the League of Defender on SHIELD side. Mirage Knight, in particular, has been a mystery.
“Whatever power is behind Mirage Knight, we just have to make sure that they are not our enemy.” So far, the relationship between Mirage Knight and SHIELD has been good, and Fury can only assume so. After all, having Hydra is enough to trouble SHIELD, they don’t need another hidden organization against them.
Brush!
With a decision in his heart, Fury waved his hand and closed the displayed data on the computer. Then Fury called up some other information about Hydra. Right now, SHIELD’s top priority is Hydra.
