Chapter 1123: Doubts

*Exhale!*

After sending Lin Rui and the others back, Jack didnt follow suit. Instead, he closed the Magical Portal and then opened a new one across from him. After opening the new gate, Jack glanced toward the previous one and reached out to activate the new Magical Portal.

*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~*

In the next instant, the trapped desert expedition team that Jack had previously sent away was sucked out from the Magic Portal.

Ah!

Oh!!

Amidst a series of tumbling and flailing, the individuals who had been teleported back by Jack from the Magical Portal landed in the sand, letting out a mix of exclamations and screams.

Earlier, in order to quickly transport these people away, Jack had chosen a location he was familiar with and where he could maintain control. This location happened to be the castle hall within the Frankenstein Family stronghold in New York.

These individuals, exhausted from being trapped in the desert, hadnt left the castle hall since Lin Rui and Thors battle had ended, along with the confrontation between Loki and the others.

Therefore, Jack pulled them back in directly. After all, the search teams heading their way were most likely looking for them, and leaving them here wasnt an issue.

However, these people had experienced some extraordinary events, and they might never find a reasonable explanation for what they had witnessed and personally encountered. But that wasnt Jacks concern ensuring their safety was already quite an accomplishment.

Its time to go back Taking a brief look to make sure these people were alright, Jack muttered to himself before stepping into the Magical Portal before him.

*Humming sound~*

Soon, after Jack entered, the golden light circle that had transported the entire desert expedition team rapidly shrank and eventually vanished. The mercenaries, Professor Astor, and the others who had been groaning on the ground and witnessed this scene were left speechless, obviously startled.

*Rumbling, Rumbling~*

Not long after Jacks departure, Professor Astor and the others heard the sound of engines revving from across the sand dunes. The search teams had finally arrived!

Back in New York, Lin Rui briefly used the Recovery Serum at Stark Industry to freshen up and change clothes before heading home. At this point, Lin Rui was almost ready to give up on getting involved in any further incidents.

If Dormammu invaded Earth, so be it he had done what he could. As for how the situation would unfold, it seemed that Lin Rui no longer had the power to intervene.

The Main Quest Well, it hasnt set a completion deadline or penalties for failure, so Ill leave it for now. Lying on his bed in his room, Lin Rui closed his eyes and silently pondered.

Sigh Temporarily putting aside the completion of the Main Quest, Lin Rui sighed helplessly.

The main reason why Lin Rui couldnt get involved in the Dormammus invasion of Earth was primarily due to his insufficient strength.

Although he had unexpectedly been to Asgard once and even been transported away by the s.p.a.ce Stone, these experiences had greatly improved his abilities. He had even gained insights into the realm of internal energy.

However, despite Lin Ruis significant power growth, he was still considered comparatively strong among his fellow League of Defenders members. At least, his increase in strength was faster than Spidermans. Nevertheless, he still couldnt be cla.s.sified as one of Earths top combat forces.

However, Lin Rui wasnt the protagonist of this world to begin with; he was essentially an outsider. If the worlds power didnt increase the difficulty for him, it would already be good enough.

It was impossible for him to be bestowed with the protagonists aura, enabling him to accomplish tasks that required top-tier strength even before he reached that level that would be unreasonable.

Still not strong enough! And I dont know why the system suddenly gave me this Main Quest. Could it be because Im close to completing the previous Main Quest? Letting out a sigh, Lin Rui silently contemplated his thoughts.

Though the System had given Lin Rui some other Quests before, there was only one Main Quest to become a Superhero. Lin Rui was already close to completing this Main Quest, with the completion progress bar showing over ninety percent.

Perhaps he could finish this Main Quest within a few months; Lin Rui believed the Reward wouldnt disappoint him when the time came.

My Training technique has reached the Advanced level, and its time to level up. But theres still a long way to go before reaching the legendary breaking through the void with martial arts level! Since he wanted to enhance his strength, the first thing he needed to do was upgrade the internal energy Training technique he was currently practicing.

Its fortunate that helping Asgard repel the Dark Elf invasion completed a Hidden Quest, and obtaining the s.p.a.ce Stone also granted me a fair amount of Reward Points. Otherwise, upgrading the Training technique wouldnt have been so easy. Muttering these thoughts, Lin Rui opened the System Shopping Center.

*Huff~*

However, just as Lin Ruis consciousness entered the system marketplace, he noticed that something was amiss.

Hmm? Wheres the bugs revival altar? Why is it gone!? Seeing that there was nothing in the position where the bugs revival altar used to be in the System Shopping Center, it had reverted to its original state.

After the initial shock, Lin Rui became instantly anxious. If the revival altar had disappeared, did that mean the bug had already been revived? Such thoughts couldnt help but cross Lin Ruis mind.

Additionally, due to Lin Ruis earlier speculation about the true nature of the bug, he didnt actually hope that the bug would revive so soon.

Consequently, upon discovering the absence of the revival altar, Lin Ruis consciousness quickly circled his mental s.p.a.ce, but he found nothing.

Upon realizing that his mental s.p.a.ce was free of the revival altar, he carefully searched the System Shopping Center again, but there was still no sign of the revival altar or the bug.

This is odd. How can it just vanish like that? Could it be that the System Shopping Center absorbed it? Lin Rui was genuinely surprised after failing to locate the revival altar and the bug.

In the past, Lin Rui had invested quite a few Reward Points to resurrect the bug. Although he hadnt continued to invest Reward Points into the revival altar after suspecting the bugs background, it had exhibited some activity within the altar at that time, as if the bug was about to be revived.

And considering that the bug had previously been able to create this revival altar within the System Shopping Center, it wouldnt have been inexplicably absorbed just before its imminent revival.

If thats the case, I wonder if its a good thing or a bad thing. Confirming the disappearance of the bug, Lin Rui couldnt help but think.

When Lin Rui didnt have much understanding of the system, the bug had indeed helped him a lot, making it relatively smooth for him to overcome the weak stage. Lin Rui was genuinely grateful for that. However, as the bug went dormant and Lin Ruis understanding of the system grew, his perspective s.h.i.+fted.
