Heroes of Marvel Chapter 1043: Returning to the Himalayas Once Again

Chapter 1043: Returning to the Himalayas Once Again

When mentioning Jack, Rick’s tone noticeably became more upbeat. It seemed that Jack pa.s.sing the first round of selection was not just luck as Rick had described, but rather a testament to his true strength. Perhaps Jack really had a chance to make it to the final selection.

“Is it really in the Himalayas?” Lin Rui muttered quietly upon hearing Rick’s reply.

Regarding Rick’s statement that Jack had pa.s.sed the first round of selection, although Lin Rui was also happy, he didn’t hold as high expectations as Rick. Lin Rui knew that Stephen Strange was most likely practicing magic in the Himalayas at this time.

According to the original storyline, it should be this originally arrogant and talented neurosurgeon who would eventually take over the position of the Ancient One.

“Well, if you do have information about the betrayers, I can take you to meet the Ancient One in the Himalayas,” Rick nodded and continued.

“Then, thank you, Rick. I really want to meet the Ancient One,” Lin Rui thanked Rick as his goal was achieved.

“I’ll take you there now. We shouldn’t delay any further.” Rick began to draw a magical spatial portal with his outstretched hand as he spoke.

Whoos.h.!.+

Soon, in front of Lin Rui and Rick, a circular magical spatial portal outlined by golden magical energy appeared. After the magical spatial portal appeared, a wave of cold wind emanated from the other side, it was the chilling air current of the Himalayas.

“All right, the gathering place of the Earth’s Sorcerers in the Himalayas is on the other side. You should have been there once before,” Rick maintained the magical spatial portal with his hands and said to Lin Rui.

“Yes, I know,” Lin Rui answered and began to walk toward the golden magical spatial portal.

“By the way, Rick, you must pay more attention to the security of the Sanctum. If you notice any issues, activate the protective magic array of the Sanctum immediately,” Lin Rui suddenly turned his head and reminded Rick when one of his feet had already stepped into the magical spatial portal.

Upon hearing Lin Rui’s reminder, Rick’s gaze flickered. “Yes, I will be cautious!”

Swis.h.!.+

Then, Lin Rui had already pa.s.sed through the magical spatial portal. The next moment, Rick let go of his hand, and the spatial portal in front of him disappeared without a trace.

“Betrayers? Could it be that we are about to face another crisis?” After seeing Lin Rui off, Rick murmured softly while looking at the empty Sanctum.

“Ah, I hope it’s not as I imagined!…” Finally, Rick could only sigh heavily.

Clatter, clatter, clatter…

After sighing, Rick turned around and walked upstairs, his right hand quickly forming magical seals. Then, the entire protective Sanctum began to undergo subtle changes. Following Lin Rui’s reminder, Rick significantly strengthened the defense of the Sanctum.

However, what Rick didn’t know was that when Lin Rui entered the Sanctum in New York, several forces in the city had already started paying attention to this street and its quaint building.

Since Lin Rui speculated that the traitors of the Sorcerer Order would bring Dormammu to Earth to cause trouble, how could he only inform his comrades in the League of Defenders?

When Lin Rui decided to go to the Himalayas to find Ancient One, he had already informed Tony and Captain Rogers to pay attention to the situation around the Sanctum and its vicinity. If the traitor really appeared, they could also be of a.s.sistance.

In a building across from Sanctum in Greenwich Village, Peter, also known as Spider-Man, sat by the window with Harry, enjoying their coffee. Peter and Harry came along with Lin Rui, but they were a.s.signed to keep an eye on the surroundings.

To better watch over the Sanctum, Harry had purchased several buildings opposite it so they would have a place to rest when taking s.h.i.+fts.

“Harry, why do you think Jackson always knows about things that haven’t happened yet? It’s like he can predict the future,” Peter asked as he looked at the Sanctum across the street from the sofa near the window.

“I don’t know, but as long as we believe that Jackson’s information is genuine, it’s enough. And who knows, maybe Jackson really does have the ability to foresee the future. This world of ours is quite mysterious, and prophecies aren’t entirely impossible,” Harry calmly replied to Peter, who hadn’t been on a mission with them for a long time.

“Hehe, that’s true. But next time, I might ask Jackson to predict when I’ll find a girlfriend.”

Harry: “…”

In the building next to where Peter and Harry were, a surveillance team dispatched by s.h.i.+ELD was closely monitoring the Sanctum and the entire street. If any special circ.u.mstances arose, they would immediately notify s.h.i.+ELD headquarters, and support would arrive within minutes.

…

Whoosh~

As soon as Lin Rui pa.s.sed through the magical portal, he felt the piercing cold of the Himalayas. The metallic magical portal behind him disappeared after he emerged, leaving Lin Rui standing alone in the snowy landscape.

Behind him were towering snow-covered mountains, while ahead lay a flat rocky terrain with quaint buildings—exactly the place Lin Rui had visited once before.

“I wonder if Rick has informed Ancient One of my arrival. It feels odd to come here directly without anyone welcoming me,” Lin Rui muttered to himself as he tightened his clothes before proceeding toward the buildings ahead.

Just as he approached the central gate of the courtyard and was about to reach out to knock, the ancient door opened on its own. Lin Rui then saw a young and beautifully dressed woman with a vintage aura stepping out from behind the door. He recognized her as Yun Lan, the disciple of Ancient One.

“Um… h.e.l.lo, I’m here to see Ancient One,” Lin Rui said, momentarily taken aback by the sight of Sorcerer Yun Lan.

“Yes, I know. Rick has already contacted me,” Yun Lan replied, much calmer than Lin Rui. However, a hint of concern flickered in her eyes.

“Follow me. Master is already waiting for you,” Without waiting for Lin Rui to say anything more, Sorcerer Yun Lan turned around and walked into the courtyard.
