Chapter 947: News
Hulk’s strength, even when under the control of Dr. Banner’s consciousness, was more than enough to handle the situation at the time. After all, Malekith couldn’t completely control the Aether particles.
Therefore, among those who were impacted by the Aether particle energy at the time, Dr. Banner was in the best condition after reverting back to his normal form. The only loss was another change of clothes.
“I heard Stark is awake?” Dr. Banner continued as he walked to stand beside Rogers.
“Yes, I had someone deliver some items I obtained from Rochester, and he woke up not long after. Not only Tony Stark but also Spiderman and Daredevil, who received the Recovery Serum from Stark, have all awakened,” Rogers replied calmly as he continued to look out at the scenery outside the building.
“Is it the Mirage Knight? Otherwise, Stark and the others should have still had a few days before they woke up from their recovery,” Dr. Banner asked curiously upon hearing Rogers’ answer.
“I don’t know, but based on the information provided by JARVIS, it’s likely to be him. However, I don’t know where he is now. Why hasn’t he shown up or returned?” Rogers finally turned his gaze away from the view outside as Dr. Banner mentioned the Mirage Knight.
“It’s good to have some news. It’s better than having no news at all. I heard that Thor said that the Mirage Knight was sent away through a s.p.a.ce portal in Asgard. I thought he would be wandering through the universe forever,” Dr. Banner said, relieved to have some news about the Mirage Knight.
As someone who has fought against the Hulk, Dr. Banner is still very interested in this mysterious vigilante. In addition, Mirage Knight is also the leader of the League of Defenders and has the ability to make decisive contributions to the alliance of their forces.
“Yes, some news is always good. And now that Tony has awakened, our plans are getting back on track,” Rogers said feeling relieved that some of the current situations were developing positively.
“By the way, has there been any follow-up to the Dark Elf’s invasion this time? If it happens again, I’m worried that the earth won’t be so lucky to survive it,” After talking about the situation of Mirage Knight, Dr. Banner switched the conversation to his concerns about the Dark Elves potentially returning to earth.
The earth was not well-prepared for the sudden attack by the Dark Elves this time, and it can be said that the victory over them was achieved at a great cost, with the help of Asgard and all other parties. However, if the Dark Elves recover and attack again, the earth may not be ready to fully engage in a battle between interstellar civilizations.
“I don’t know. I don’t have much information about this invasion. However, someone else should know,” Rogers replied in a deep tone to Dr. Banner’s question.
“You mean Thor from Asgard? Will he come back?” Dr. Banner clearly knew who Rogers was referring to, as Thor was an alien just like the Dark Elves.
“There are other people besides him who might know. Mirage Knight might also have some information. However, besides them, I think there are some special people who have knowledge about this,” Rogers replied.
“Which special people do you mean?” Dr. Banner asked.
“Do you remember those sorcerers who had magical powers?” Rogers asked.
…
Just as Tony and the others woke up early due to drinking the Elven Holy Spring Water that Lin Rui had left in the Hoverboard, Sorcerer Rick and David were practicing their daily routines in the New York Sanctum.
During the Dark Elf invasion a few days ago, the sorcerers guarding the Sanctum in London had also sent out a call for help, but apart from Wong, none of the other Sanctum sorcerers had come to their aid. The main reason for this was that the Ancient One had forbidden them from getting involved in the conflict.
The invasion of the Dark Elves itself is not within the jurisdiction of the Earth’s Sorcerers. If it weren’t for Odin’s intervention and Malekith’s plan to devour the entire Nine Realms into eternal darkness, the Ancient One would not have allowed the Sorcerers to get involved.
However, even if the Sorcerers did get involved, they would not be the main force. These kinds of events are tests for the earth and challenges for the guardians of the earth. Fortunately, the earth survived this time.
Huh~
After a slight magical fluctuation in his body, Rick ended his deep meditation. Soon after, David beside him also finished his meditation.
“David, Jack doesn’t seem to be here all the time.” After opening his eyes, Rick looked at David and said.
As a member of the League of Defenders, Jack spent several months learning magic at the New York Sanctum with Rick and David in order to improve his recent strength. However, when the League of Defenders needed him, he returned and has not come back since.
“Do you still expect him to guard the Sanctum for the rest of his life like us? Didn’t we already know his purpose for learning magic when he came here? If the Ancient One hadn’t relaxed the conditions so much, we wouldn’t have accepted him either,” David said lightly in response to Rick’s words.
“Then we can also be considered his masters, but we don’t know how he can stay away for so long without coming back,” Rick said and even though he knew that what David said was true, he was still a little annoyed.
“You also know that the Dark Elf’s invasion caused many of them to be seriously injured, and now he must be worried about them,” David said, no longer surprised by Rick’s reaction.
“I was just thinking about the news from the Ancient One…” Seeing that David hadn’t understood what he was trying to say, Rick had no choice but to continue reminding him.
“You mean…looking for the talented sorcerer to inherit the role of supreme sorcerer?” Hearing what Rick said, David finally understood what Rick was trying to tell him.
Earlier today, news had come from the hermitage of the Ancient One, the supreme sorcerer in the Himalayas, shocking all the Sorcerers on earth. The Ancient One is looking for an heir.
This news was earth-shattering for the Sorcerers on earth because the current Ancient One was still in a very strong period and it was far from time for him to find an heir. However, now that the Ancient One has sent out this news, finding a magically gifted heir is the top concern of every sorcerer.
As the sorcerers who guard the Sanctum in New York, Rick and David have not taken on many apprentices and the only one they have taught recently is Jack. After thinking for a long time, Rick still felt that Jack had a chance, after all, Jack’s talent is not bad.
