Heroes of Marvel-Chapter 1169: Dealings

Although the swirling black mist outside was turbulent, and the internal “mini-sun” continued to release its remaining energy, the people from Earth inside the E Grade Spaceship and Star-Lord’s group aboard the Milano gradually stopped feeling the influx of particles and radiation.

In other words, Dormammu had already fully consumed the various energies released by the two nuclear bombs.

“Is it still… possible to escape now?” Dr. Banner asked quietly from behind RogersCaptain, seeing that the mini-sun within the black mist was no longer visible.

However, at this moment, no one was inclined to answer Dr. Banner’s question. Given Dormammu’s speed as demonstrated earlier, even if they managed to delay him with the nuclear bomb explosion and attempted to escape, they wouldn’t get far.

Dormammu would quickly catch up to them. Furthermore, they were on Earth’s doorstep. Even if they ran, Earth was still bound to be subjected to Dormammu’s attack, so escape was not a viable option. After quietly voicing his question and receiving no response, Dr. Banner returned to silence.

“Thor, can you still contact Asgard? At least try to call for reinforcements; the Bifrost is very powerful, right? Why not use it against Dormammu?” Lin Rui suddenly approached Thor and asked quickly.

Previously, the appearance of King Odin was the result of Thor reestablishing contact with Asgard and calling for help.

While Odin’s arrival had been the greatest support from Asgard, now that the shrunken Dormammu stood in their way and Odin and the others were unaccounted for, Asgard should still provide additional assistance. At the very least, they needed to ascertain Odin’s current situation.

“Uh? Alright, I’ll try!” Thor replied promptly after Lin Rui’s question, leaving the cockpit.

Subsequently, Thor’s loud summons echoed from a distance as he attempted to establish contact with Asgard.

“Loki, I know you’ve been holding back. But given the current situation, continuing like this might disturb the entire Nine Realms. So, I hope you’ll do your best to help us resolve this problem.” Ignoring Thor’s shouting, Lin Rui approached Loki and spoke seriously.

Previously, during their encounter in the Sahara Desert, SHIELD and Tony’s group had jointly fought Loki, leaving him somewhat battered. However, Lin Rui understood that Loki hadn’t been serious back then.

Otherwise, even if he couldn’t stop Hulk’s punch, he could have prevented it from reaching him. Perhaps, at the time, Loki had chosen to directly face Hulk’s fist due to his arrogance.

Upon hearing Lin Rui’s words, Loki, who hadn’t said a word since entering the E-Grade Spaceship, had a few flickers in his eyes. Then, he lifted his gaze to the youngster standing before him.

“You still have no authority to command me, but I have an agreement with the Ancient One. I will do my best to help.” After locking eyes with Lin Rui for several seconds, Loki replied in a calm tone.

“Very well,” Lin Rui acknowledged Loki’s response and didn’t say anything more, simply turning and walking away. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝒃𝙣𝓸𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝓶

Seeing Lin Rui’s business-like and indifferent attitude, Loki’s proud expression froze for a moment. However, he quickly recovered and returned to his usual self. He had no intention of showing too much respect to a mere youngster.

“Jackson, is Asgard really sending reinforcements? Or are they counting on those two to hold off Dormammu?” After Lin Rui walked past Loki and returned to the others, Tony no longer concealed Lin Rui’s true identity and addressed him by name.

Among the people inside the E Grade Spaceship, except for a few, most of them already knew that Phantom Knight was actually Jackson Lin. Therefore, in this critical situation, Tony felt that there was no need to continue addressing Lin Rui as Phantom Knight.

“Even if Asgard sends reinforcements, with those two alone, they won’t be able to stop Dormammu, despite his apparent weakening. So, this time, we really need to go all out. Tony, your ultimate arsenal should be deployable now,” Lin Rui replied.

“I’ve already had J.A.R.V.I.S. activate the ultimate arsenal as soon as Dormammu appeared. But, will it really be effective?” Tony was initially resigned when he heard Lin Rui’s previous response, but he was surprised by Lin Rui’s words.

Within the E Grade Spaceship, SHIELD had stored two upgraded nuclear bombs, and Tony had also left some of his secret weaponry on the Warship. However, Tony didn’t believe that his hidden arsenal could be effective in this situation. After all, even two nuclear bombs had been swallowed by Dormammu.

“You won’t know unless you try, and besides, I secretly added something to your ultimate arsenal. Maybe it will have some effect,” Lin Rui said calmly, seeing Tony’s lack of confidence.

“You added something?!” Tony was astonished by Lin Rui’s last words. However, Lin Rui had already turned and walked towards the X-Men.

When Lin Rui reached Iceman Bobby, he stopped and observed Iceman’s current condition briefly before preparing to speak.

“Jackson, I should have guessed it was you! You don’t need to say more; I’ll help. But I’m curious, how did you know I could still contribute? My weakness from earlier wasn’t just an act,” Iceman Bobby spoke first as Lin Rui approached.

Iceman and the X-Men weren’t surprised to learn that Phantom Knight was Jackson Lin. However, Iceman was somewhat taken aback. How did Lin Rui know that he had almost fully recovered? Did he know more about Level Five Mutants than Iceman himself?

“Oh… so you’ve already recovered?” Lin Rui was momentarily surprised by Iceman’s words, then somewhat unexpectedly said, “I just wanted you to rest properly.”

Iceman: “…”
