Chapter 1054: Attack

Chapter 1054: Attack

If Mirage Knight’s reputation wasn’t impressive enough, then the name Iron Man has long been known worldwide. Even the sorcerers, who don’t interact much with the outside world, couldn’t possibly be unaware of Iron Man, the iconic protector of Earth.

Sure enough, after hearing Lin Rui’s words, Kaecilius glanced several times at the two Iron Man suits behind him. Gradually, the look in his eyes changed.

“That is... Iron Man? Tony Stark?!” Finally, Kaecilius exclaimed in astonishment.

Clearly, Kaecilius knew about Iron Man. Moreover, he was aware of Tony Stark, the most famous person in the world at present. Based on his understanding, only Tony Stark would have the qualifications to equip such Iron Man suits. So, does that mean Tony Stark is inside these two Iron Man suits?

“You guessed it right, but here’s your reward for it! JARVIS!” Upon hearing Kaecilius’s surprised voice, Lin Rui’s initially calm expression turned fierce, and he quickly shouted.

Regardless of whether the other party knew his identity or not, Lin Rui’s purpose in coming here was to prevent them from damaging the Sanctum. Therefore, the moment the other party was distracted by surprise was the perfect time for Lin Rui to strike.

Pū Pū Pū!

Upon hearing Lin Rui’s sudden shout, JARVIS instantly unleashed a dozen laser beams, their targets being the five renegade sorcerers on the platform tens of meters away. At the same time, Lin Rui swung his Beheading Spirit Sword twice, and a cross-shaped sword energy swiftly surged forward, continuously expanding during flight.

Swish!

The laser beams moved at a very fast speed. If these renegade sorcerers wanted to use magical portals to divert the laser beams, they wouldn’t have time to open the portals and would be hit by the beams. Therefore, they didn’t open any magical portals but instead swiftly waved their hands in front of them.

Swish swish swish!

The next moment, the dozen laser beams had already reached them. However, miraculously, when the laser beams approached them, they seemed to collide with an invisible barrier, causing them to refract at an angle and veer off.

The refracted laser beams pierced through the distorted world, ultimately heading somewhere unknown. It seemed that these sorcerers had a way to render certain modern technological methods ineffective against them.

However, although the laser beam attack from the Iron Man suits was once again ineffective, Lin Rui’s sword energy was not mysteriously refracted but collided directly against their defensive means.

It appeared that magical defenses effective against lasers were ineffective against Lin Rui’s internal energy.

Thud!

However, just as Lin Rui’s cross-shaped sword energy collided against their shield, Kaecilius, who had been surprised a moment ago upon recognizing the origin of the Iron Man suits, swiftly took action. A golden whip fiercely lashed at Lin Rui’s cross-shaped sword energy, and the intense magical energy dispersed Lin Rui’s sword energy.

Whoosh!

Subsequently, several golden whips quickly swept toward Lin Rui. Clearly, regardless of Lin Rui’s background, since he had attacked them, these renegade sorcerers would not hesitate to strike back.

After all, they were intent on bringing Dormammu into this world, and dealing with these individuals possessing special abilities who opposed them would be a good start.

Swish swish!

Even though Lin Rui reacted quickly, two golden whips still wrapped around his feet. The sorcerers tried to pull him down forcefully, but they couldn’t bring him down.

“Hmph! Is that all the strength you have? It seems that you aren’t as formidable as I thought,” Lin Rui coldly remarked as he stood firmly on the ground, unaffected by their attempts to bring him down.

Swish!

Just as Lin Rui finished speaking, a golden beam of light flew swiftly from his side. It was a boomerang-like weapon made of golden magic.

Whoosh!

Lin Rui caught sight of the attack and swiftly swung his Beheading Spirit Sword, blocking the path of the golden boomerang. However, just as the boomerang was about to collide with the sword, it swiftly spun around the Beheading Spirit Sword, accelerating and grazing past Lin Rui’s face.

Crack!

Although Lin Rui quickly turned his head to dodge, the golden light grazed his face, brushing against his black hood. A small scratch appeared beneath his right eye, oozing a trickle of red blood, which quickly stopped.

“It seems I shouldn’t underestimate you...” Lin Rui’s gaze turned cold as he felt a fiery sensation on his wounded cheek, muttering under his breath.

Boom!

In the next moment, a powerful surge of internal energy erupted from Lin Rui’s body. He forcefully took two steps backward while his feet were still entangled by the golden whips, causing the two traitorous sorcerers to be pulled forward.

Swish swish!

As the two traitorous sorcerers stumbled forward due to Lin Rui’s sudden retreat, two Azura Sword Energy swiftly slashed toward them.

Pū Pū!

This time, without Kaecilius’ assistance, the two traitorous sorcerers were directly struck in the chest by the two Sword Energy attacks. Their golden whips disintegrated, and they were sent flying in agony.

With the control released from his feet in a straightforward manner, Lin Rui dashed towards the platform ahead. His recent encounters in the Himalayas had given him a clearer understanding of the fighting style of Earth sorcerers, including these seemingly weak traitorous sorcerers in front of him. He believed he could hold his own against them.

Compared to the many sorcerers he had encountered in the Himalayas, Lin Rui felt that these traitorous sorcerers didn’t seem very strong. Perhaps a few powerful sorcerers from the Himalayas could easily dispatch them.

“Could these be nothing more than cannon fodder among the traitorous sorcerers?” Lin Rui silently pondered as he charged forward.

Humming!

As Lin Rui was lost in thought, a strong surge of magical energy emanated from the front. Finally, Kaecilius, who had only made one move earlier, took action again. This time, he seemed more serious. Dozens of golden whips appeared in front of him as he rapidly performed hand seals, and then he fiercely lashed them toward Lin Rui in mid-air.
