Chapter 1163: Return

The conversation between Star-Lord and Lin Rui continued for half an hour before coming to an end. In reality, Lin Rui had run out of things to say to Star-Lord towards the end.

However, Star-Lord was eager to learn more about Ego, the mysterious figure. Although Lin Rui hadn’t provided many details, confirming that Ego was his father had sparked a multitude of thoughts in Star-Lord’s mind.

Lin Rui, who understood what Ego was and the purpose behind his arrival to rescue Star-Lord, had tried to subtly paint Ego as an irresponsible father during their conversation.

He did this to dissuade Star-Lord from getting too close to him. Perhaps, because of Lin Rui’s words, Star-Lord had developed a resistance to Ego, which might prevent him from leaving with him.

“Jackson, I think I’ll head back now. The Milano still needs urgent repairs, and Rocket alone might not be able to handle it,” Star-Lord said with less urgency after their conversation had concluded.

“Well, go ahead. I believe Mr. Stark and the others will be of assistance,” Lin Rui replied with a smile as Star-Lord prepared to leave.

Upon hearing Lin Rui’s words, Star-Lord paused for a moment before departing with Gamora. After Star-Lord and Gamora left the cockpit, Peter, who had been standing by Lin Rui’s side the whole time, had a thoughtful look in his eyes.

“Jackson, um… is there something wrong with this Ego?” Just as Lin Rui’s gaze shifted from the cockpit’s passageway to the vast cosmic expanse beyond the glass, Peter suddenly asked.

Star-Lord and Lin Rui weren’t extremely close, but Peter had known Lin Rui for a long time, and he knew his mysterious friend quite well. Based on Lin Rui’s conversation with Star-Lord, Peter had a hunch that Lin Rui was withholding certain unfavorable information about Ego.

Upon hearing Peter’s inquiry, Lin Rui’s expression remained unchanged. He wasn’t surprised that Peter had detected his evasiveness during the conversation.

“Peter, if I told you that… Ego isn’t actually human, how would you feel?”

Peter: “?!?”

Upon hearing Lin Rui’s counter-question, Peter looked shocked and puzzled. What did he mean by “not human”? Ego was obviously an extraterrestrial, but extraterrestrials were still considered human, right? Moreover, Ego’s appearance wasn’t that of a particularly strange alien, so why wouldn’t he be considered human?

“Never mind, I won’t say anything more about this. After this is over, Star-Lord will have to make his own choices. All I can do is offer a reminder,” Lin Rui said, shaking his head in response to Peter’s surprised expression.

Then, Lin Rui quietly sat back in his chair, gazing at the vast cosmic expanse outside the cockpit. Unlike the skies on Earth, the universe here, free from Earth’s atmospheric interference, felt more real, with a breathtakingly close presence.

“The universe… it’s an endless expanse of stars, waiting for us to explore…”

…

After some time had passed, the individuals who had left the cockpit earlier began returning one by one. The members of the Guardians of the Galaxy had already returned to the Milano, and they were prepared to journey back to Earth along with the E Grade Spaceship.

With the assistance of Tony, Dr. Banner, and Beast/Hank, Rocket managed to repair the Milano to a basic operational state in just one hour.

Rocket, the tech geek, was genuinely impressed by the technological prowess of the three scientific geniuses from Earth. In Rocket’s eyes, Tony and the others were true geniuses, and if they were in the cosmic environment, they would undoubtedly achieve great success.

After all, Tony had developed century-spanning technology on Earth, and he would surely shine even brighter beyond Earth’s confines.

“How’s the recovery going? Can we activate the Portal?” Now that everyone from Earth had returned to the cockpit, Tony looked at Lin Rui, who was still gazing at the universe and inquired.

Upon hearing Tony’s question, Lin Rui, who had turned his gaze away from the cockpit’s view of space, blinked and then turned back.

“Alright, it’s ready. Are you all prepared?”

After Lin Rui’s response, the other individuals in the cockpit quickly found their seats and secured themselves firmly. Those who had experienced the Portal before knew the incredible speed at which the E Grade Spaceship would erupt during the process. To minimize discomfort, they chose to secure themselves tightly.

“Star-Lord, are you ready? This might be our only chance.” With everyone on Earth prepared, Lin Rui initiated communication with the Milano, which had already flown to the rear of the E Grade Spaceship.

“We’re ready. The Milano’s engines are more advanced than your Spaceship, and although damaged, they can still keep up with you. Don’t worry,” Star-Lord’s response quickly came through upon hearing Lin Rui’s question.

“Alright, be in sync.” Lin Rui trusted Star-Lord and his Milano, so he replied and began preparations.

Subsequently, Lin Rui stood up from his chair. Although he had become quite skilled in using the Magic Cube, he couldn’t create a Portal in front of him while sitting in the cockpit. Therefore, he needed to go outside.

“I’m going out.” After quickly donning his Iron Man suit, Lin Rui nodded to the people around him.

“Be careful.”

“I will.”

A minute later, Lin Rui, wearing his Iron Man suit once again, was floating in front of the E Grade Spaceship, holding the Magic Cube. Waves of subtle spatial energy emanated from the Magic Cube toward the outside. J.A.R.V.I.S had already adjusted the E Grade Spaceship’s status to be ready to burst through the Portal at the fastest speed.

“Earth’s coordinates… location…” Suspended in the cosmos, Lin Rui carefully double-checked the cosmic coordinates of Earth.

Then, with a toss of his right hand, Lin Rui threw the Magic Cube into the air.

Boom!

A few seconds later, amidst a powerful surge of spatial energy, the E Grade Spaceship and the Milano turned into two differently colored beams of light, charging into the space rift ahead. After both Spaceships had entered, the spatial rift quickly shrank and eventually disappeared.

With the E Grade Spaceship and the Milano both gone from this part of the cosmos, only the small, pure white, oval-shaped Spaceship belonging to Ego remained. Because Star-Lord and the others couldn’t detect the situation inside this Spaceship, they assumed that there were no other occupants and decided to leave it behind naturally.
