Huhu~
In the sky of New York illuminated by various bright lights, a silver-white Iron Man flew by quickly, and Lin Rui, who was sent to Siberia, finally returned.
“JARVIS, have Peter and others arrived yet?” Lin Rui asked JARVIS while looking at the night view of New York below through the three-D display in the helmet.
“Yes, Spiderman, Daredevil, Mirage Knight, and X-Men have all arrived.” JARVIS quickly replied when he heard Lin Rui’s inquiry.
“Are they all there? It seems that they are waiting for me. It’s a nice feeling although a bit embarrassing.” Lin Rui in the steel suit said.
JARVIS: “…” JARVIS did not respond to Lin Rui, but silently increased the engine power of the Iron Man Armor.
Brush!
…
On the platform on the top floor of the Stark Industries building, Tony and other seven people stood or sat looking at the dark night ahead. JARVIS had just reported that Mirage Knight had arrived.
Although Lin Rui has encountered dangerous situations before, this is the first time that Lin Rui has faced such deadly dangerous situation, which is why Peter and his team are so nervous. However, compared to Peter who only cares about Lin Rui, Professor Charles has more to think about.
Huh!
Soon, after Tony and others had watched the night sky for a while, a flash of fire rushed towards this side from the midair, it was an Iron Man Armor.
“He came back!” The moment he saw that Iron Man, Peter, who hadn’t made a sound since he arrived, shouted excitedly.
Brush!
Boom!
As Peter shouted, the Iron Man flew a parabola straight out of the air and landed on the platform. JARVIS had cooperated to release several robotic arms from the platform, helping disarm the Iron Man’s steel suit after the Iron Man had fallen.
As the mechanical arm took away the Iron Man Armor suit piece by piece, the figure of Mirage Knight slowly appeared in front of Peter and the other seven.
Phoo~
After most of the armor on his body had been removed, the person raised his head and looked at the person waiting for him, and then took a step forward. Mirage Knight, or Jackson Lin, reappeared in front of everyone after missing for more than thirty hours.
“Hello everyone, I am very happy to see you again.” After all the Iron Man Armor was removed, Lin Rui wearing the Phantom Suit had also walked in front of Tony and the others, he looked at the seven people waiting for him in front of him and smiled.
Call!
The second after Lin Rui finished greeting, Peter had rushed out from behind Tony and hugged Lin Rui. Behind Peter, another figure also rushed out. It was Harry, who also hugged Lin Rui. At this moment, Mirage Knight, Spiderman, and Dark Knight hugged each other.
“Cough! I know you are worried about me, but I’m okay now.” Lin Rui was hugged hard by Peter and Harry. Feeling the concern from his friends, he was happy but there are other people in front of them now, otherwise, Lin Rui wouldn’t mind letting Peter and Harry hug more.
Call!
“Next time! Don’t do such dangerous things anymore!” Releasing Lin Rui, Peter said in a serious voice. If it weren’t for Lin Rui’s desire for Magic Cube, he wouldn’t had been transported by the Magic Cube together with Red Skull.
“Well, I’ll be careful next time.” Lin Rui patted Peter’s shoulder and spoke seriously. As for whether Lin Rui will behave the same way next time, it depends on the situation at that time.
“Welcome back.” After Peter finished speaking, Harry spoke a sentence from the side. Harry, who was already a director of a large group, obviously had a mature mind.
“Thank you!”
After embracing Peter and Harry respectively, Lin Rui faced Tony and others again. Looking at Tony, Lin Rui expressed his gratitude. Lin Rui knew that Tony was actually the one who underwent a lot of pressure after his disappearance. Finally, Lin Rui looked at Professor Charles in a wheelchair.
“Mirage Knight, I’m glad you are okay.” Professor Charles said in a relaxed tone after seeing that Mirage Knight is still alive.
“Professor Charles, I am glad you came here in person.” Looking at the wise bald old man in front of him, Lin Rui spoke earnestly.
“Mirage Knight, I knew you would be okay!” After Lin Rui and Professor Charles finished their talk, Iceman walked out and he opened his arms to give Lin Rui a big hug while talking.
Lin Rui will certainly not refuse Iceman’s embrace. Among X-Men, Iceman is Lin Rui’s first acquaintance and the most compatible Mutant. Lin Rui and Iceman hugged, and then Lin Rui found that Iceman’s body does not seem to have recovered.
“Robert, haven’t you recovered yet?” Lin Rui asked Iceman worriedly.
“Well, I used too much power last time, it will take some time for me to fully recover.” Hearing Lin Rui’s words, Iceman smiled and replied.
In the last battle on the Golden Gate Bridge, because Hydra used the Magic Cube’s space strike for the first time, Iceman broke out with his Absolute Ice attack. Although he blocked the attack, he used the power beyond the Fourth Level Mutant and he couldn’t control it, causing Iceman’s body to be directly injured seriously, and it would take a long time and rest for him to make a complete recovery.
In fact, being a high-level Mutant may not be a good thing. Although a higher level of Mutation will allow for better control of your own abilities, it will not cause harm to people around you. Like Mutants below Level 2, although some are very capable, but because they can not control their powers, they will always cause harm to the people around them. This situation is the main reason why Mutants cannot be accepted in the mass society.
Once the level reaches the highest level known to date, level 5, it represents their versatility and is almost unlimited. And the use of such a strong ability requires the same strong body, if the body is not strong enough, it will be exploded before the ability is used. This is also the reason why the most powerful Mutants on earth are Fourth-Level Peak Mutants, because some rare Fifth-Level Mutants are either unable to exert their full strength, or they are strangled because they cannot withstand such powerful forces in the body.
“So, maybe this can help you.” After listening to Iceman’s explanation, Lin Rui thought about it for a while and directly took out a Serum from the inner space of the Phantom Suit and handed it to Iceman.
This Serum is not the Gene Therapy Serum produced by Oscorp, but it is something that Lin Rui had just redeemed from the System Shop that can help a Mutant in his/her recovery. Although Oscorp’s Gene Serum can treat many diseases at the genetic level, Mutants’ genes are not entirely similar to that of a normal human being, so those Serums are useless to them.
“Thank you.” Although he didn’t know if this Serum would be useful but Iceman still smiled and took it.
“Okay, since everyone has seen Mirage Knight, let’s not stand outside anymore. The wind at night is still a bit cold.” Seeing that everyone had already greeted Lin Rui, Tony as the host clapped his hands before speaking.
“Well, let’s go in.” Lin Rui had walked toward Tony’s luxurious top-floor office with Peter and others after nodding towards Tony.
