Chapter 980: JARVIS Taking Action

Anton! Go! After Lin Rui reminded Scott, Scott immediately climbed onto Antons back and shouted loudly.

Hoo hoo!

Next, Anton spread its wings and lifted off. Guided by Scotts direction, it swiftly flew to the room that Lin Rui had just indicated. If Scott successfully accomplishes the mission and returns safely, he will definitely reach out to that talented young man once more and express his grat.i.tude properly.

Tony Stark was caught off guard by the sudden development on the monitoring screen, as he sat in the Stark Industries building in the heart of New York. Meanwhile, Scott was perched on Antons back and making his way into the cramped room.

JARVIS, whats going on? Why did the attack get abruptly canceled? Tony asked directly as he saw Scott fly into the small room where the sundries were placed on the Anton.

Tony had not given the command to halt the attack, so the only explanation for the cancellation of the laser network was JARVIS acting without authorization. Despite JARVISs recent advancements in independent thinking, it still shouldnt have been capable of such a step.

This raised concerns for Tony about the possibility of a problem with the JARVIS system. He couldnt help but consider this as a possibility.

Sir, I received a message from Mr. Jackson, which is why I canceled the attack, JARVIS replied to Tonys inquiry.

Jacksons message? What does that have to do with that kid again? Tony was even more surprised upon hearing JARVISs response.

Lin Rui had just had a supernatural encounter in Rochester a few days ago and had asked s.h.i.+ELD for a.s.sistance. Now this man who had the ability to make himself small was invading Tonys secret base, and just as Tony was about to destroy the intruder, JARVIS received another message from Lin Rui. He was certainly resourceful.

Here is the message Jackson sent me, asking me to stop the attack on the intruder, JARVIS said, sending the message to Tony for review.

Huh~

JARVIS, this is Jackson. Stop attacking. The other party has no hostile intentions, Lin Ruis message read.

In order to quickly verify the authenticity of the message, Lin Rui not only revealed his ident.i.ty but also included a special identifier in the message. Without these elements, JARVIS would not have been able to cancel the attack without going through Tony.

Oh, you want to play hide-and-seek with us now? Tony smirked as Lin Rui was more forthcoming with his ident.i.ty this time compared to their last encounter in Rochester.

Since the intruder is a.s.sociated with Jackson, let him go. I dont think you need to trace the origin of this message, Tony said to JARVIS, now relaxed.

The source of the signal is very clear. It came from the intruder. However, I can no longer locate Jackson. Also, the intruder appears to be searching for something, an item that was kept after the warehouse was cleared, JARVIS replied promptly to Tonys words.

Its nothing unusual. Looks like Jackson still wants to have some fun for a few more days. Let him be. As for what the intruder is searching for, unless its one of our confidential materials, it doesnt matter, Tony said.

Understood, sir, JARVIS responded.

JARVIS continued to discreetly monitor Scott, who was searching for the signal disguiser in the small room. Tony was not overly concerned. Since this intruder was connected to Lin Rui, he would eventually learn about the technology once Lin Rui had had enough fun.

Anton! We found it! Lets go! Scott exclaimed ten seconds later, having finally located the object he was searching for in the small room.

Huh~

Anton, who was waiting nearby, quickly flew over and carried Scott out of the small room and back to the warehouse outside. With no time to examine the aftermath of the laser net, Scott was eager to leave before the defense system fully recovered. He didnt want to waste any more time.

Brus.h.!.+

Finally, Scott emerged from the warehouse without any obstructions and was back outside. However, just as he was preparing to face the attack from the two soldiers guarding the area, he realized that their figures were no longer there. With Lin Rui having asked JARVIS to cancel the attack, there was no longer any need for Frank and his partners to remain outside.

Hmmm? Do they think I got taken out by the laser net attack? Its definitely a possibility, Scott mused as he surveyed his surroundings and confirmed the absence of the soldiers.

Scott! Youre alive! Thats great news! Dr. Pyms voice came through Scotts earpiece, indicating that their communication had been restored.

Im still alive. Returning now, Scott replied as he and the three ant teams accompanying him flew towards the nearest airport. They still had a plane ride ahead of them.

As Scott departed safely from Starks secret base and began his journey back, Lin Rui, who was located in another city, ceased monitoring Scotts progress through the communicator. With Lin Ruis a.s.sistance, the most perilous situation had been successfully navigated and there was no longer a need for further surveillance during Scotts return trip.

Whats going on? Bucky, who had been sitting across from Lin Rui, abruptly inquired as he noticed Lin Ruis expression s.h.i.+ft from relaxed to tense.

As Lin Rui was communicating with Scott, Bucky had been closely observing him. He was able to overhear everything that was being said between Lin Rui and Scott. Although Bucky was not aware of the specific details regarding Scotts situation, it was clear to him that Lin Rui had played a crucial role in resolving the issue.

Well, Scott was just in some danger, and I a.s.sisted in handling it. Lin Rui nodded in response upon hearing Buckys statement.

In this way, he should be able to trust us completely. Then, it should be easier for you to deal with that Bad Person. Although he doesnt know how Lin Rui is helping Scott by sitting here, Bucky doesnt care, the only thing he cares about is what they are going to do.

Perhaps, but things never tend to be straightforward, Lin Rui replied with a blink of his eyes, in response to Buckys words. He understood that situations often escalate and become more complex and dire.

Based on Lin Ruis prior experiences, he knows that every time he intervenes in a situation, there will always be unantic.i.p.ated changes and an increase in complexity and danger, as a result of his involvement. This is an inescapable principle. As a result, Lin Rui believes that the Antman incident will not be as straightforward as it may seem.
