Chapter 1071: Restoration

With the intervention of the Ancient One, Lin Rui’s weakened Psychic Power quickly strengthened and gathered rapidly. At this rate, Lin Rui’s consciousness would soon take shape, and his awakening was not far off.

“It should… be about time.” As Lin Rui’s consciousness gradually took shape, a slightly weary voice emerged from the golden sphere.

Humming~

Once it was confirmed that Lin Rui’s Psychic Power was rapidly recovering and his consciousness would soon awaken, Ancient One retracted the power exerted on Lin Rui’s Psychic Power.

Soon, the power that filled Lin Rui’s entire sea of consciousness instantly contracted back into the golden sphere.

After all the power was retrieved, the color of the golden sphere gradually faded, indicating its impending disappearance from Lin Rui’s sea of consciousness.

However, before the disappearance of Ancient One’s golden Psychic Power, it seemed to glance upward, where the Penance Stare had just vanished.

The disappearance of Ancient One’s golden Psychic Power was silent, completely different from the vastness it exuded when it appeared in Lin Rui’s sea of consciousness.

After Ancient One’s Psychic Power vanished from Lin Rui’s sea of consciousness, the vast yet empty sea of consciousness finally became calm again, with only Lin Rui’s faint azure consciousness gazing steadily at the center, unaware of how long it would take for complete awakening.

…

Huff, huff, huff~

While all these unexpected events unfolded in Lin Rui’s sea of consciousness, as Ancient One helped accelerate the recovery of Lin Rui’s Psychic Power and his awakening, outside the medical pod where Lin Rui lay, the powerful Psychic Power storm emanating from Ancient One gradually subsided.

Finally, to the astonishment of Tony and others standing in the corner of the medical room, the Psychic Power storm before their eyes came to a complete halt.

“It seems it’s over.” Taking in the now calm invisible storm and sensing the vanished suppression of Psychic Power, Jack took a deep breath and spoke.

“Yes! Let’s see how Jackson is doing!” Peter’s eyes lit up as he no longer felt the suppression of Psychic Power. He rushed to the edge of the medical pod to look at Lin Rui inside.

Thanks to the world’s most advanced medical equipment and the Recovery Serum, within a short period, most of the visible wounds on Lin Rui’s body had already healed. The deepest wound on his chest now only remained as a faint scar. However, the injuries within Lin Rui’s mind were what truly mattered, and those couldn’t be discerned from the outside.

“JARVIS, any changes in Jackson’s mind?” While Peter carefully observed Lin Rui lying in the medical pod, Tony, who had also approached, eagerly asked JARVIS.

“Sir, a few minutes ago, there was a significant fluctuation in Jackson’s neural domain. Shortly after the storm appeared, the fluctuations in Jackson’s neural domain ceased, and it is now very stable. The intensity of the neural domain’s fluctuations is steadily increasing in a regular pattern.” Upon hearing Tony’s inquiry, JARVIS quickly responded.

“So, that means… Jackson is fine?!” Excitement filled Harry’s voice upon hearing JARVIS’s reply.

“Based on Jackson’s previous records of recovering from neural injuries, he is indeed fine. Moreover, judging by the current rhythm of neural domain fluctuations, Jackson will awaken in a few hours.” In response to Harry’s joyful question, JARVIS continued to provide answers.

“I knew it!” Finally, Peter could breathe a sigh of relief.

Although everyone present knew that Ancient One had helped in the recovery of Lin Rui’s neural domain, they believed it was the least Ancient One could do. After all, Lin Rui had been injured because of the sorcerers.

“Alright, now that we know Jackson is fine, you guys can go and do whatever you need to. He’s safe with me.” Tony looked at the three young individuals standing near the medical pod and spoke.

Among the five people in the medical room, besides the still unconscious Lin Rui, Tony was Iron Man and the actual controller of Stark Industries. Harry was the Dark Knight and the Director of Oscorp Industries. Jack, apart from being a member of the League of Defenders, was also the head of the prominent Frankein-Stane family, one of the most influential families in the world of New York’s underworld. Peter, besides being the well-known Spider-Man, was a high school student burdened with academic responsibilities.

It can be said that these individuals had their own lives beyond their superhero identities. And their personal lives couldn’t be abandoned. After all, they had already sacrificed much for the sake of protecting Earth, they couldn’t sacrifice their identity.

As an “mature older person,” Tony felt it was his responsibility to ensure that the normal lives of these “Youngsters” wouldn’t be overly disturbed by superhero affairs. After all, they were still young and deserved to continue enjoying the beauty of their youth.

“Well then… I’ll head back.” Upon hearing Tony’s words, Harry, who had planned to leave before Jack’s return, was the first to speak.

Following that, Harry bid their farewells and turned to leave the medical room. However, Peter remained still. He wanted to wait until Lin Rui woke up before returning.

As for Jack, he was reassured once he confirmed Lin Rui was fine. Moreover, the words spoken by Ancient One had provoked some thoughts within Jack, despite his immediate rebuttal.

Therefore, after Tony finished speaking, a magical portal swiftly appeared in front of Jack, and after nodding to Peter and the others, Jack took a step into it and disappeared.

“Are you going to wait here until Lin Rui wakes up?” After Jack and Harry had left, Tony looked at the motionless Peter and asked.

“It’s only a matter of a few hours. I can wait.” Peter’s voice sounded somewhat heavy upon hearing Tony’s question.

A few days ago, when Lin Rui mentioned his plan to help the sorcerer lineage on Earth resist the invasion of evil wizards, Peter had initially said he would go with Lin Rui to the Himalayas.

However, in the end, he let Lin Rui go alone. If Peter had stayed with Lin Rui, perhaps it wouldn’t have been just him charging into the Mirror Dimension.

“Even if you and Jackson had charged into the Mirror Dimension together, I don’t think the outcome would have been much better. There’s a high chance that we would have one more person lying here right now, and that would have worried us even more.” Upon hearing Peter’s reply, Tony patted his shoulder in comfort.

“Well, that’s better than me standing outside, watching Jackson lying in there…”
