Heroes of Marvel

Chapter 272 Grasping

Lin Rui, who was suddenly awakened, turned around and saw his colleague Wang Min, but Lin Rui privately gave her the nickname “Wang Xiaoya”. Speaking of which, in their company, the relationship between Wang Xiaoya and Lin Rui is pretty good. But what was he doing here? Is he asleep and dreaming? Why did he feel that this situation is wrong?

“Cough! Wang Min, I didn’t sleep! How can I sleep during work hours?” After coughing twice, Lin Rui shook his head to clear away the confusion.

“You didn’t sleep?! If I hadn’t called you, you would have been dreaming until the Boss came!” Hearing Lin Rui’s words, Wang Min crossed her arms in front of her and looks down at him.

Lin Rui wanted to explain himself but he suddenly froze when he looked around the office. Then, a coolness burst out from the bottom of his heart and went directly into his head.

“Dream? Am I dreaming?” When Lin Rui looked at Wang Min in front of him again, he had lost his flattering look.

“Lin Rui? What’s wrong with you? Are you still asleep?” Wang Min asked curiously when she saw the changes in Lin Rui.

“Indeed, I do seem to be dreaming. However, it is time for me to wake up!” Watching Wang Min approaching himself, Lin Rui stepped back and said slightly.

“What the hell are you talking about?”

“Wake Up!” Without paying attention to what Wang Min had said, Lin Rui’s eyes suddenly became sharper and he sighed.

Buzz!

With Lin Rui’s low roar, a powerful mental surge suddenly burst out of his mind and instantly swept the office. Under the sweep of that spiritual power, the entire office was broken into pieces like glass. There was deep darkness behind the broken glass. Finally, Lin Rui was shrouded in darkness and he was soon devoured by that same darkness.

…

At night, in the alley outside the Margaret’s Bar, Lin Rui was lying motionless on the ground. Beside him, there was a man and a woman squatting beside him. The girl with red hair was emitting red light in circles around his head. The silver-haired boy stood quietly, protecting the red-haired girl.

As for the Francis team, they are still standing in the distance. Although they are obviously in a single group, the man and the woman don’t seem to want others to interfere in their actions.

Buzz ~

With both hands waving rhythmically on Lin Rui’s head, the red-haired girl is exerting her abilities with all her strength: creating a fantasy in the depths of his consciousness. However, the process that was easy in the past now seems very difficult, her frowns are tightly closed.

“Wanda, what’s wrong? Can’t you control him?” Seeing his sister couldn’t end her abilities for so long, the boy who stood beside the girl couldn’t help but speak.

“Pietro, this guy’s mental defense is very strong. Although I got him into that fantasy but I can’t do more than that and I can’t control him.” Hearing her brother’s words, Wanda, who was trying to use her abilities, whispered back.

It turned out that the men and women with special hair color turned out to be brother and sister. And, the names they just yelled at each other turned out to be Marvel World’s famous Mutants, Scarlet Witch Wanda and Quicksilver Pietro. Lin Rui was overwhelmed even before he could react which was apparently done by Quicksilver. As for how Lin Rui suddenly fell into the illusion of his previous life, it is the work of Scarlet Witch, it is Scarlet Witch’s mental control and no one knows if Lin Rui can survive it.

And just when Scarlet Witch tried to control Lin Rui who was already in the illusion, he suddenly burst out with a powerful mental wave, and immediately expelled Scarlet Witch’s power from his body.

“Not good!” Scarlet Witch shouted, feeling the powerful mental power that erupted from Lin Rui.

Shout!

Then she quickly stood up and backed out. Her mind control had failed. As a long-range ability user, the first thing she need to do is to distance herself from the opponent. At the same time, Quicksilver, who heard Wanda’s reminder, was also ready to act.

However, after the powerful mental force broke through Scarlet Witch’s control, Lin Rui on the ground did not move further, and seemed to be still in a coma. This made Quicksilver a little confused, and then he looked at her sister behind him, his eyes suggesting what she was doing now.

“This … maybe he was in a coma because he used too much mental power.” Scarlet Witch said with some uncertainty after feeling Lin Rui’s state.

“What about now? Can you still control him?” Quicksilver asked, frowning slightly at his sister’s words.

“If the mental power he just exploded was indeed his own, then I would have a hard time controlling him. People with this level of mental power will protect themselves even when unconscious.” Scarlet Witch said while shaking her head.

“It doesn’t matter if you can’t control him, anyway, he can’t escape now. So, let’s get him back first, at least we gained something out of this situation.” Since Scarlet Witch can’t control this guy, Quicksilver can only get him back first.

“Well, I’ll double-check to make sure he’s really fainted.” Scarlet Witch promised after hearing Quicksilver’s words, then carefully approached Lin Rui again, and began to release her mental power.

Buzz ~

Ten seconds later, Scarlet Witch put her hand away.

“Yes, he is passed out.” Standing up from Lin Rui’s position, Scarlet Witch said lightly.

“Well, that’s it for today’s mission. I thought I could catch some big fish, but I didn’t expect that there was only one person who made trouble.” Quicksilver complains dismissively and reaches out to Lin Rui on the ground.

“This guy is not simple, I have never met a guy who I can’t control with my powers. Moreover, this guy obviously has a close relationship with X-MEN, otherwise, they wouldn’t have appeared with him on the bridge last time,” Scarlet Witch said calmly when she heard the disdain in her brother’s tone.

“No matter how powerful this guy is, when it comes to us, he is nothing more than an advanced thug. But it’s funny to see this guy lose his memory or be controlled against his teammates.” Quicksilver continued with a contemptuous smile.

“Pietro, do you really think that we’re doing the right thing?” Scarlet Witch asked when she heard her brother’s words.

“Wanda, there are many things in the world that are not right or wrong. It’s just that they stand at different angles. Now, the situation we are in can only give us this choice.” Seeing Wanda asked another question, Pietro’s eyes fluctuated slightly as he replied.

“Well, tonight’s mission is over, we should leave too.” Seeing that Francis was coming over here, Pietro didn’t say anything more to Wanda.

Brush!

Their silhouette flashed, and Quicksilver had taken Scarlet Witch and the unconscious Mirage Knight on the ground out of the alley. As for the Francis who came over, they were not surprised at all about the disappearing Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. One of the hidden missions they came here to do is to capture Deadpool or X-Men. Of course, the appearance of Mirage Knight was a surprise.

Now that Mirage Knight has been taken away, they are going to find Vanessa next. To deal with Deadpool, the more cards they have, the better. Under the leadership of Francis, they quickly left while nobody noticed what had happened in the alley.

Of course, Francis didn’t know how much trouble such a simple hidden mission would bring to him and the forces behind him. If they knew, maybe they wouldn’t have caught Mirage Knight.
