Chapter 1046: A Tightly Guarded Guardian Temple
Lin Rui and Stephen Strange met in such a not particularly friendly way, and Stephen Strange was also curious about the appearance of such a magical young man in the hermage hermitage in the Himalayas. However, Lin Rui wouldn't tell him where he came from so easily.
In this way, from the next day, Lin Rui practiced with Jack every day. Jack worked hard to learn magic and new combat techniques, while Lin Rui continued to practice his internal strength. And Stephen Strange is also with Lin Rui and Jack, and he just needs a partner to fight magically. Although he and Jack were rivals, neither of them really cared much about the selection of the Supreme Mage.
For Jack, he came to participate in the selection of the Supreme Mage of the Earth Mage lineage only because of the strong requirements of Mage Devon and Mage Daric, and on the other hand, it was to improve his magical strength. Stephen Strange was even simpler, he was just looking for a cure for his hands, and his participation in this selection was just an accident.
The outcome of this selection does not have much impact on Jack and Stephen Strange, Jack still wants to go back to New York to continue to be a guardian in the Guardian League, while Stephen Strange still wants to return to normal life. Of course, what is about to happen now may not allow Jack and Stephen Strange or other mages who would normally come to the selection to complete the selection.
On the third day when Lin Rui came to the hermage retreat in the Himalayas, Lin Rui got up early. Then, he answered a phone call and went out. After walking around the courtyard for a few minutes, Lin Rui saw Jack meditating in a small square.
Dada~
"Jack, send me back first, I've been out for a few days, go back and report for a while. After walking to Jack's side, Lin Rui said directly.
Call~
Buzz~
Hearing Lin Rui's words, the meditative Jack didn't open his eyes, but just raised his right hand and waved it in front of him. Then, a magical portal composed of golden light had already appeared in front of Lin Rui and Jack. And the location connected to this magic portal is inside the Guardian Alliance base, and only there is no need to attract the attention of others.
"Well, then I'll go first, and I'll call you when I come back. Seeing the magic space portal that appeared in front of him, Lin Rui waved his hand at Jack, who still hadn't opened his eyes, and said.
Call~
Then, Lin Rui had already stepped into the magical space portal. After Lin Rui walked in, this magical space portal also quickly dissipated. From the time Lin Rui came to this small square to the time he left through the magical space portal, Jack, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, had never opened his eyes, and there was no trace of fluctuating expression on his face. It can be seen that Lin Rui's current strength has indeed stimulated Jack, and he has to work hard to become stronger.
And Lin Rui, who had passed through the magic space portal in one step, had already returned to the Guardian Alliance base in New York, speaking of long-distance teleportation, the magic space teleportation of the mage line seemed to be faster and more convenient than the space portal created by Lin Rui through the space energy of the Rubik's Cube. After all, the power of magic cannot be accurately analyzed with the power of technology.
At this time, there were not many people inside the Guardian Alliance base, except for Jerry, a logistics staff who had always been guarding the base, no one else was there. Since that day when Lin Rui told them that there might be an evil and powerful wizard invasion of the earth in the near future, everyone in the Guardian Alliance base has not been idle anymore, they are always paying attention to the changes in the outside world, and they are also working hard to improve their strength.
Like Harry, Tony and S.H.I.E.L.D., they directly bought and rented almost all of the Greenwich Village where the New York Temple was located that Lin Rui mentioned, in order to be able to monitor the area in an all-round way. As long as there is indeed magical energy in that area, the power of the Guardian Alliance, Iron Man, and S.H.I.E.L.D. will arrive as soon as possible.
With the acquiescence of the Ancient One Mage, Lin Rui had already revealed more information about the Earth Mage to his allies. Therefore, except for Lin Rui, everyone else already knew what kind of person they needed to guard against this time. Of course, as for whether some of the preparations they have made now will be useful to the mage's magic, that still needs to be tested in actual combat.
Lin Rui, who returned to the base of the Guardian Alliance, chatted with Jerry about some of his experiences in the Himalayas and some of Jack's situation before going home, Lin Rui left an instrument on Jack that could locate his location, and if something happened in the Himalayas, Jack could also open the magic space portal and call Lin Rui over as soon as possible.
And just when Lin Rui had just left the Guardian Alliance base and returned home, Gu Yi, who was far away in the Himalayas to guide those young mages who had passed the selection, suddenly raised his eyebrows. The next moment, in a burst of golden light, the Ancient One had disappeared from the Mage Square.
Call~
When the Ancient One reappeared, he was no longer on the Himalayas, but on the top of a high-rise building in the center of a bustling steel and concrete city.
"Is it finally there?" said to himself, standing on the top of a tall building in the center of New York City, the Ancient One mage looked at somewhere in New York City.
......
Buzz~
Just as the Ancient One disappeared from the Himalayas and appeared in the center of New York City, Gen Daric, who had only one person guarding the entire temple because Venerable Devin had gone to the Himalayas, suddenly woke up from his meditation. Feeling the message from the Temple, Master Darek's brow furrowed.
"Is it really a traitor?" the golden light flashed in his hand, and Mage Darrick muttered in a deep tone.
Then, Mage Daric, who was still meditating, had already stood up, and at the same time he had sent a message. Regardless of whether or not a betrayer had appeared in what the Temple had detected, Mage Daric would not take it lightly. To be honest, with the strength of the betrayers, Master Daric really couldn't defend the temple alone.
Drip, drip!
The next moment when Mage Darrick sent the message, the communicators on Jack and the special team of S.H.I.E.L.D., who had been guarding the Temple in New York for three days, all received a message. Since Lin Rui has made it clear that he wants to help the Earth Mage this time, then Master Daric will not refuse.
