CHAPTER 327 MEETING
Buzz ~
As Lin Rui was riding his hoverboard toward downtown New York, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.
“Who is calling me at this time, is it Peter?” Lin Rui thought as he pulled out his cell phone while controlling the hoverboard to slow down.
Before coming to the X Academy and meeting the X-Men today, Lin Rui talked with Peter and Harry to take them to meet Thor, a friend he met during the holidays. Lin Rui also called Thor. Thor still hasn’t found a suitable job and he has already given up.
“Eh? It turned out to be them. It seems that they can’t wait any longer!” However, when Lin Rui saw the caller ID on the mobile phone, he was slightly surprised. It didn’t seem to be Peter or Harry’s call.
Huh ~
Controlling the hoverboard to reduce speed and height, Lin Rui finally levitating a meter above the ground. Instead of getting off the hoverboard, Lin Rui connected the phone while standing on the hoverboard.
“h.e.l.lo, Mr. Mirage Knight, I’m Rick from New York Sanctum.” As soon as the call was connected, Rick’s voice came from the other end. It seems that the people who Lin Rui just said can’t wait were these sorcerers.
“h.e.l.lo, Rick. Sorry, I have been training these days and haven’t taken the initiative to contact you.” Hearing Rick’s anxious voice, Lin Rui said eagerly.
“So are you free right now? In fact, if Mirage Knight doesn’t mind, we can help you recover quickly.” Hearing Lin Rui, Rick on the other side of the phone continued.
It seems that these two sorcerers are really anxious to meet him, Lin Rui thought silently in his heart. However, Lin Rui has also been thinking about it for several days, but he still could not think about what the Ancient One who is protecting the earth would want with him. After all, their last encounter was just an accident meeting on Lin Rui’s part. There is no reason for these sorcerers to look for him.
Moreover, Lin Rui also knows that Tony used these two sorcerers to do magic experiments for himself. Since these two sorcerers are willing to pay so much to find him, then meeting him should be quite important to them. Lin Rui also considered whether the Ancient One had something for him to do but Lin Rui really didn’t know what was going on before seeing them.
So, Lin Rui, who had already decided, went on to say, “Thank you for your kind intentions. I’m fine now. I remember that you guys wanted to meet me?”
“That’s good! We do have something to tell you. I don’t know where you are now, let’s meet face to face.” Hearing Lin Rui said that he was okay, Rick said happily.
“Uh … I’m near Green Street on x.x.xX Avenue.” Not expecting Rick to be in such a hurry, Lin Rui paused for a moment and announced his position.
Lin Rui knows that these sorcerers can do s.p.a.ce magic to appear from one place to another. So after reporting his position, Lin Rui stayed at ease in his position as the sorcerors should appear soon.
Buzz ~
Sure enough, after Lin Rui reported his position, on the open s.p.a.ce about fifty meters in front of him, an iris composed of golden light appeared out of thin air. Next, in front of Lin Rui’s eyes, the two sorcerers that Lin Rui had seen before came out from the magic s.p.a.ce door that had been fully opened.
Call!
Controlling the hoverboard and slowly flying forward, Lin Rui is soon in front of the two sorcerers. Fortunately, this is a suburb of New York, where there are only a few houses in the distance and no one seems to be inside them, or the two sorcerers coming out of a s.p.a.ce door or the Mirage Knight emerging on a hoverboard would cause quite a stir.
Da ~
After flying towards the two sorcerers, Lin Rui jumped off the hoverboard and stood in front of the two sorcerers, Rick and David.
“h.e.l.lo, sorcerers from New York Sanctum.” Lin Rui greeted politely.
Lin Rui has always been in awe of the earth’s sorcerers. Although Rick and David were scammed by Tony in the previous two days, Lin Rui did not look down on them either. After all, simplicity is not wrong.
“h.e.l.lo, Mr. Mirage Knight, we meet again.” Finally seeing Lin Rui again, both Rick and David felt the stone that had been pressing down in their hearts disappear.
Although the Ancient One did not tell Rick and David as to why he is looking for Mirage Knight but they would not usually question the Ancient One. Even if the last time he went to a different world to solve a big demon, it was only an understatement, so Rick and David were very concerned about this matter.
Of course, Ancient One didn’t think it would take so long for Rick and David to meet Lin Rui again. He just thought it was a simple request as Ancient One did find something with Mirage Knight, and it was not a small matter, but it was not easy to talk to others.
“Thank you for your help during my kidnapping and the time before that, otherwise I would have been in danger this time.” Lin Rui continued.
One of the two things Lin Rui said is that the last time Harry was possessed by a demon from another world and Peter was infested by Venom, Lin Rui and Tony would not have been able to solve that situation without the intervention of these sorcerers and the Ancient One. This time, Lin Rui was caught by Hydra and because theses two sorcerers saved Francis’s life, Professor Charles got the secret out of his mind, so Lin Rui has them to thank.
“Haha! You are a hero who protects New York, and we should do these things to help.” Hearing Lin Rui’s words, Rick said with a smile.
This Mirage Knight speaks a lot better than Tony Stark! It seems that their mission can finally be completed. In two simple sentences, Lin Rui’s att.i.tude had rea.s.sured Rick by more than half.
“So, why were you guys looking for me?” After the polite words and speech, Lin Rui also asked what he always wanted to know.
“You have to ask this question to the Ancient One himself. We are just here on his request. He would like to meet you.” Unlike before when he didn’t answer Tony, Rick answered Lin Rui’s question truthfully.
Sure enough, it is the Ancient One who wants to see me, but why? Upon hearing Rick’s words, Lin Rui thought silently.
“The Ancient One wants to see me? Where can go to see him?” Although he had already guessed this in his heart, Lin Rui continued to ask in confusion.
“Haha! As long as you are willing, we can go there immediately.” Seeing Lin Rui seemed to have agreed, Rick said happily.
“Of course, how could I refuse the invitation from the Ancient One.” Lin Rui was already prepared in his heart and then answered after reaching Rick.
“So let’s go!”
With that said, Rick raised his hand and started waving in front of him.
Buzz ~
Soon, a huge magical s.p.a.ce door appeared in front of them and Rick nodded towards Lin Rui and went in with his companion. Lin Rui followed in without showing any hesitation.
Call!
