Chapter 1111: Tony Arrives

Loki suddenly appeared before the unarmored face of Iron Man with a cold look in his eyes and he swiftly thrust his scepter forward.

Buzz Buzz Buzz!

In the final moments as J.A.R.V.I.S. was rapidly arming Iron Man’s various components, Loki’s scepter intervened, perfectly disrupting the convergence of certain parts. Then, just before J.A.R.V.I.S. could initiate the next countermove, a surge of potent magical energy emanated from the scepter.

Bang!

In the next instant, a significant energy explosion occurred in mid-air and the assembled parts of Iron Man’s suit scattered, blown away by the explosion. Numerous components lost their mobility, and the armor itself descended toward the ground.

Pū Pū Pū~

Several seconds later, the parts of Iron Man’s suit shaken loose by the explosion fell to the ground one by one. Thus, the massive Iron Man suit controlled by J.A.R.V.I.S. was completely dismantled following the encounters with Loki.

As the suit’s components hit the ground, Loki remained suspended in mid-air. His gaze remained cold as he observed the disassembled Iron Man suit pieces.

Though Loki swiftly handled the colossal Iron Man suit, he derived little pleasure from it. He recognized the suit as merely a weapon, and the individual behind it might soon take action.

As Loki furrowed his brows, lost in thought while looking at the Iron Man suit parts on the ground, he suddenly sensed something heading towards the Sahara Desert.

Amidst the vast Sahara, small black dots were rapidly growing larger against the gray horizon. If Loki’s perception was accurate, some of those dots resembled the Iron Man suit components he had just scattered.

“Is this ceaseless?!” Loki’s gaze turned frigid as he confirmed the incoming threat and muttered with a cold tone, his grip on the scepter tightening.

…

While Loki grappled with the sudden appearance of the giant Iron Man suit, Lin Rui had already assisted Jack in emerging from beneath the metal sheet that had protected them. Consequently, Lin Rui also witnessed the clash between Loki and the colossal Iron Man suit.

When Loki used his blade to slice through the laser beam and subsequently punctured the Iron Man suit, Lin Rui’s heart skipped a beat. Lin Rui understood well that this colossal Iron Man suit was Tony’s upgraded “Anti-Hulk” armor.

Of course, this suit wasn’t designed solely for countering Hulk anymore. Only Tony possessed the capability to pilot this enormous Iron Man suit. When the blade pierced through it, Lin Rui was nearly terrified.

However, just as Lin Rui stared with disbelief evident in his eyes, J.A.R.V.I.S.’s voice echoed in his ear, easing his anxiety. Subsequently, Lin Rui watched the battle between J.A.R.V.I.S. piloting the Iron Man suit and Loki.

It had to be admitted that Tony’s upgraded giant Iron Man suit displayed strength across various aspects, even managing to temporarily suppress Loki, Asgard’s trickster god. Yet, eventually, Loki pinpointed a vulnerability and dealt a decisive blow to it.

“Reinforcements have arrived. Even if you can manage to defeat one Iron Man suit, what about the genuine Iron Man army and SHIELD’s Avengers? I genuinely doubt your power suffices to dismiss this united attack.” Lin Rui focused his gaze on Loki suspended in mid-air and spoke in a deep and thoughtful tone while supporting Jack with one arm.

Given the current situation and Loki’s engagement, Lin Rui needn’t restrain himself. Despite Loki’s might, the current alliance might not fear him. Furthermore, Loki had been somewhat restrained by the Iron Man suit moments ago. In light of that, Loki didn’t appear as overwhelmingly formidable as Lin Rui had initially perceived.

In essence, Lin Rui’s persistent apprehension towards Loki largely stemmed from encountering him at a time when he lacked sufficient strength. Back then, Loki had been utterly dominant to Lin Rui.

However, Lin Rui’s power had since grown significantly. If Lin Rui possessed his current strength from the outset, Loki’s pressure wouldn’t have affected him nearly as much.

“Jack, are you okay?” Seeing Loki’s attention drawn towards the incoming army of Iron Men in the distance, Lin Rui glanced down at Jack, who had just regained consciousness and asked.

“I have been better, it’s just two broken ribs. I’ll recover in a few days,” Jack replied while enduring the pain in his body.

During the battle with Loki, Jack’s magical shield had been broken, and he was struck forcefully in the chest by the intertwined fists formed by those vines. Even with Jack’s robust physical constitution, it resulted in two broken ribs.

However, Jack’s recovery ability was also robust; a few days with the Recovery Serum back at the base would mend him completely.

However, aside from the physical injuries, due to his magical shield being shattered, Jack’s mental energy had also suffered some damage, which wasn’t as easy to recover from. Naturally, Jack wouldn’t divulge all of this to Lin Rui, not wanting to worry him.

“It’s good that you’re alright. Now that reinforcements are here, we might just get our revenge,” Lin Rui reassured Jack after hearing his response.

“Yeah, but be careful. His magic is different from ours,” Jack reminded, unable to hold back.

“I know.”

Then, Lin Rui’s gaze returned to the sky. He had already re-established contact with J.A.R.V.I.S. through his earpiece, and now Tony’s irritated questioning kept coming through.

Phew!

“Jackson, what trouble have you stirred up again, you little bastard?! Is that guy from Asgard?” Piloting the latest semi-lifeform mechanical suit, Tony was speeding towards Lin Rui’s location, shouting into his helmet.

After J.A.R.V.I.S. had controlled the gigantic Iron Man suit to reach the battlefield and engage Loki, Tony had already connected with Lin Rui. However, due to being buried in the dust from the explosion, Lin Rui hadn’t received Tony’s messages in time.

By the time Tony’s message had arrived, that Iron Man suit had already been destroyed by Loki.

Tony was quite surprised by how quickly his secret weapon had been destroyed, but he swiftly accepted the reality.

After all, the loss of those components was only a financial setback, and Tony wasn’t currently short on funds. Moreover, the information that J.A.R.V.I.S. fed back to him lessened the blow.
