Chapter 1010: The 1st Success Transmission
“Okay, we have to use force if we can’t get it done otherwise.” After hearing Agent Coulson’s words, Hawkeye’s demeanor became more resolute.
“Falcon, don’t worry. Although the retired bureaucrats from SHIELD’s older generation are severe, they won’t really go against us. With Captain Rogers’ full support, their wisest choice is to disarm and stop any unnecessary actions.” Seeing the resolute expression on his face, Coulson continued to speak to firm Falcon’s resolve.
“Well, that’s what you say. But… I have a feeling… that our mission this time may not go as smoothly as we are hoping it to be.” Falcon spoke with a serious expression on his face as he watched the cityscape outside the Quinjet gradually appear.
Just like the previous incident with the Flame Skull in Rochester, if that person hadn’t appeared later to resolve the situation, Falcon really didn’t know how he could have dealt with the immortal skeleton with far greater strength than himself.
And this time, he is coming to this northern city to face the SHIELD old-timers, it seemed to be some political negotiation, but Falcon felt that his premonition would come true.
“A bad feeling… I hope it doesn’t come true.” Upon hearing Falcon’s words, Coulson could only hope so.
Whoosh!
Thus, after flying for more than ten minutes from SHIELD headquarters in Washington, the Quinjet had arrived in this northern city. Falcon and Coulson didn’t know what had happened in the city not long ago, nor did they know what they would encounter.
But, as SHIELD’s elite agents and one of the Avengers, they believed that they had enough strength to deal with any unexpected events that might occur.
…
And just minutes before Falcon and Coulson departed on the Quinjet, a spatial portal appeared in the alley in which Lin Rui and Bucky had disappeared. At the same time, on a remote corner of another continent on Earth, a silver spatial portal appeared out of nowhere.
Buzz…
As soon as the spatial portal appeared, a strong gust of wind and debris spewed out of it. Then, a figure rushed out of the portal and was almost blown away by the strong winds.
But just as the figure was about to fall to the ground, the figure emitted a flash of Azura light and adjusted his posture before safely landing on the ground.
At the moment when the first figure safely landed, a larger and more muscular figure was also ejected from the portal. However, due to his larger size, he was not blown away and instead rolled on the ground a few times to relieve the unstable impact of the spatial portal.
As the second figure tried to stand up, the spatial portal behind them quickly collapsed towards the center and eventually shrank into a small dot before disappearing in a burst of spatial energy.
As the portal vanished, a spatial energy shockwave swept out, pushing the two figures several meters away but causing little harm.
“Cough cough!” After the spatial energy shockwave dissipated, the area finally stabilized, and a coughing sound could be heard. It was obvious that someone had been choked by the dust and smoke.
“Haha! It actually worked!!” The first young man who came out of the spatial portal shouted in excitement while the bulky guy was coughing.
Needless to say, these two guys who came out of the spatial portal were Lin Rui and Bucky who were just in a city in the northern United States a few seconds ago.
Since being transported to Asgard by Heimdall and encountering Malekith’s invasion of Asgard to take the Aether Particle, Lin Rui had already risked using the spatial energy of the Magic Cube to fight against the Aether Particle.
However, at that time, the spatial energy of the Magic Cube suddenly erupted, and countless spatial portals appeared instantly, transporting Lin Rui away. But that also meant that Lin Rui could indeed use the energy of the Magic Cube to a certain extent.
After returning to Earth and recovering his memories, Lin Rui had retrieved the Magic Cube from Bucky. Fortunately, the Magic Cube was pulled out from the same spatial portal as Lin Rui, and Bucky had not thrown it away, otherwise, Lin Rui wouldn’t have known if he could find the Magic Cube again.
After getting the Magic Cube back, Lin Rui studied it privately. The spatial portal he just made using the Magic Cube was the result of his research for many days. He finally could use the infinite spatial energy inside the Magic Cube to create a spatial portal.
Unlike Hydra who used some special devices to extract the spatial energy from the Magic Cube, Lin Rui completely used his own special power to use the Magic Cube.
It was just like how Ancient One used the power of magic to use the Eye of Agamotto, which was the Time Stone, Lin Rui’s strength now allowed him to simply use the s.p.a.ce Infinity Stone.
“Cough cough~ Jackson, what the h.e.l.l did you say just now? It worked?! That was a s.p.a.ce portal, did you just come here without any confidence?” While Lin Rui was laughing at the disappearing location of the spatial portal, Bucky walked over and questioned him with a helpless expression on his face.
That’s a s.p.a.ce portal, not just any entrance that anyone can enter. If it weren’t for Bucky’s confidence in Lin Rui and their good relationship over the past few days, Bucky would not have risked his life to follow Lin Rui into the s.p.a.ce portal.
However, Bucky was still frightened by the experience inside the s.p.a.ce portal, even though it only lasted for a moment so when he heard Lin Rui’s words just now, Bucky felt lucky to have survived.
“Haha, Bucky, don’t worry so much, we made it out smoothly, didn’t we? If we can succeed the first time, then there shouldn’t be any problems later.” Seeing Bucky still frightened, Lin Rui laughed and said.
“Don’t worry? Later? Do you still want to use that?” Bucky widened his eyes as he asked this question.
“Our previous two operations in those two cities were covert enough, but we have already exposed ourselves to some extent. So, in order to continue our journey, let’s just use the s.p.a.ce portal directly to travel in the future.” Knowing what Bucky was worried about, Lin Rui explained.
In fact, when Lin Rui said “exposed,” he meant that they had been discovered by Tony and SHIELD. However, Lin Rui knew that even if they had discovered his whereabouts, as long as he did not return on his own, they would not come to stop him.
