HOM-CHAPTER 1064 WITHDRAWING HELP

(From here on out, I will release 1 extra chapter if I receive 10 new reviews and 100 Power Stones.)

Inside the medical room of Stark Industries headquarters in downtown New York, Peter carefully placed Lin Rui into the medical pod, a place he had only come out of two weeks ago.

Behind Peter, Tony and Harry had grim expressions. Tony managed to maintain a semblance of calm, but Harry's anger was clearly written on his face.

Sigh~ Click!

"Is this the sorcerers' way of repaying us for helping them? Letting Jackson get beaten up like this?!" After the medical pod door closed with Lin Rui lying inside, Harry couldn't help but growl in a low voice.

Hearing Harry's growl, Peter, who still had dried blood from Lin Rui on him, also flashed an angry expression in his eyes. Carrying Lin Rui all the way back, Peter was afraid that something might happen to Lin Rui in his arms.

Now, looking at Lin Rui receiving basic cleaning inside the medical pod, Peter's suppressed anger surged forth.

"No matter what reasons the sorcerers have, they must give us some explanation. Otherwise…" After Harry's outburst, Peter spoke up.

Peter originally wanted to say that they should let the sorcerers have a taste of their own medicine but halfway through, he remembered that they were dealing with a group of mysterious magic sorcerers who might actually overpower them.

If Peter and the others hadn't witnessed the power of the sorcerers who seemed like charlatans before, they truly understood how powerful these sorcerers were, just by looking at Lin Rui's current state.

"And what else do you expect? Jackson brought this upon himself. If he hadn't taken the initiative to help the sorcerers deal with their traitors, a thankless task, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation." When Peter hesitated, Tony, who had maintained a calm demeanor throughout, spoke up.

Different from Harry and Peter's anger towards the sorcerers, Tony's feelings were more like frustration that his own child had suffered a loss.

You see when Lin Rui warned Tony and the others that Earth would be invaded by evil sorcerers from other dimensions, although Tony believed him, he wasn't particularly supportive of Lin Rui's decision to help the Earth's sorcerers.

In Tony's view, the sorcerers should be the ones dealing with matters in the magical world, while he and others residing in the real world should focus on protecting Earth from normal crises.

Moreover, Lin Rui's decision to help the Sorcerers this time was obviously rushed, and it felt as if there was something pushing him from behind.

Although Lin Rui had often done similar things in the past, this time he faced sorcerers who were different from before, which meant many of their usual methods were useless.

As for Lin Rui himself, he was very enthusiastic. After deciding to help the sorcerers, he even went alone to the Himalayas and stayed there for three days. Under Lin Rui's influence, SHIELD, Tony, and even the League of Defenders all made efforts to protect New York and the Sanctum.

Following Lin Rui's reminder, SHIELD even arranged special task forces near the Sanctums in London and Hong Kong.

Not long after Lin Rui returned home to New York, Kaecilius, the traitor, appeared and secretly constructed the Mirror Dimension, enveloping the entire street, including the Sanctum.

Initially, if Lin Rui hadn't gone in, nothing would have happened. At most, Kaecilius would have attacked and attempted to breach the Sanctum, but they might not have succeeded since Ancient One was secretly watching.

The key was that Lin Rui, upon discovering the Mirror Dimension, rushed in without hesitation. And after entering the Mirror Dimension, he didn't hide but rather dared to provoke Kaecilius, even engaging in a battle with him that even Ancient One wouldn't do.

It's worth noting that Kaecilius was already one of the most outstanding sorcerers under Ancient One. Even if Lin Rui had significantly increased his strength, he didn't stand much chance against Kaecilius.

So, unsurprisingly, even though Lin Rui used Kaecilius's past to provoke him, he ended up being beaten like a dead dog. Moreover, in order to escape from Kaecilius, Lin Rui unleashed his consciousness, which was a very dangerous move.

Especially after receiving a warning from Ghost Rider Johnny, Lin Rui should have been more cautious about the safety of his consciousness.

"But Jackson became like this because he was helping them!" Hearing Tony's words, Peter protested angrily.

A few days ago, when Lin Rui told Peter that evil wizards from other dimensions would cause trouble on Earth, Peter was excited because he finally had something to do. If he had known that this incident would turn Lin Rui into this state, perhaps he wouldn't have been so excited at that time and would have advised Lin Rui to be cautious.

Now, before that evil entity from other dimensions even arrived, Lin Rui was nearly killed by the traitors within the sorcerer community on Earth. Due to the sorcerers' incomprehensible procrastination, several alliance forces closely related to Lin Rui have completely changed their views on the sorcerer community.

Perhaps, in the imminent danger that Earth is about to face, they will not intervene because of Mirage Knight's severe injuries.

"Well, you see, this is the consequence of helping. So, let's not get too involved this time." Tony certainly knew that Peter felt frustrated and angry on behalf of Lin Rui, but they could express their stance in a different way.

After Tony and the others rescued Lin Rui, the special task forces that SHIELD had previously arranged near the three major Sanctums were all withdrawn. Tony and Harry, who had practically bought up the entire street, also removed all their surveillance and teams.

Now, apart from the central Sanctum, the rest of Greenwich Street was owned by Stark Industries and Oscorp, but they would no longer protect the Sanctum.

"That's right! We shouldn't have gotten involved in the first place! I have already called back all the people I had arranged, and they don't need our help anymore." Upon hearing Tony's words, Harry chimed in.

Ever since successfully researching the Titan series genetic enhancement serum, Oscorp had also trained a group of volunteers willing to undergo genetic enhancement.

After all, there are always people in this world who are unhappy or have disabilities. After undergoing the genetic enhancement serum, these individuals became super-soldier-like beings, and Oscorp had gained a group of fairly capable forces.

If it weren't for Lin Rui's insistence on helping, Harry wouldn't have let this group of people come out.
