After a long silence, Lin Feng calculated several more possible arrangements.
However, after filtering, none of them had a probability as high as the first result.
There was no other way; the answer lay on the future battlefield of Avengers 4. Lin Feng had to try…
"Bruce! Let's go!"
Lin Feng turned and said, tucking three Infinity Stones into his Superman gauntlets.
He decided to follow Bruce's suggestion and find Tony first to ask if there was a spare Quantum Suit, also known as a time travel suit.
If there was, that would be perfect. Lin Feng could travel to the future with very little risk.
If not, he would have to resort to the method provided by the system.
However, Lin Feng didn't hold much hope for a spare suit. He remembered Scott Lang, Ant-Man, had said.
There was only enough Pym Particle stock for all of them to make one round trip…
The two walked down the stairs and headed directly to the rendezvous point Bruce and the others had agreed upon.
However, by the time they found Tony, it was already too late.
Tony and Steve had already put on their Quantum Suits and disappeared from their original location by activating the navigators, leaving behind a bewildered Ant-Man holding the Scepter embedded with the Mind Stone.
Lin Feng, who had just arrived, witnessed this scene with his own eyes and knew it was hopeless.
These two must have traveled back to 1970 to find the Space Stone and Pym Particles of that era.
"Hey!"
Bruce Banner ran over. He had also seen Tony and Steve disappear.
"Scott, where did they go?" Bruce asked.
Scott opened his mouth, looked at Bruce, his large face filled with indignation and speechlessness.
"Tony failed, the Space Stone is lost."
"Then they went to 1970. They're insane…"
Scott spun around in place as if venting, recounting the ordeal in a few words like spitting out bitterness.
"They're truly insane! One mistake, and they can never come back…"
"Calm down, Scott," Bruce said, extending his large hand to comfort him.
Scott stopped venting and suddenly stared at Bruce.
"Did you… did you get the Time Stone?"
Hearing this, Bruce scratched his head awkwardly.
"I guess I did."
As he spoke, Bruce shifted slightly, revealing Lin Feng following behind him.
"What do you mean, 'I guess I did'?" Scott looked at Bruce in a daze, then noticed the stranger in the black battle suit behind him.
"Who is this?"
Scott was even more bewildered.
Why did Bruce bring a stranger?
"I'm Lin Feng!"
Lin Feng stepped forward.
"Hello… I'm Scott…"
Ant-Man greeted him blankly.
Lin Feng nodded, then looked back at Bruce. The greetings were over, and he didn't have time to chat with Ant-Man now.
"It seems there are no spare suits."
Bruce also sighed. "Yeah, we'll just have to try your method."
On the way, Lin Feng had already explained his approximate backup plan to Bruce.
Although Bruce thought it was utter nonsense, they had to try even if there was a sliver of a chance.
After all, what could be more nonsensical than traveling back in time, right?
With their opinions aligned, they wasted no more time.
Lin Feng walked behind Bruce and grabbed him under the armpits from behind.
He was too large for Lin Feng to hug properly, so this was the only way.
"Wait, guys, what are you doing now? Can you explain it to me?"
Looking at their strange posture, Scott was full of confusion. He couldn't understand the behavior of these superheroes, as if they knew everything while he knew nothing…
"I'll explain when we get back, Scott. You take the Mind Stone and go back first!"
As soon as Bruce finished speaking, Lin Feng pulled him and shot into the sky.
Scott was left behind again, mouth agape, holding the Scepter.
Only after the two figures disappeared into the sky did the stunned Scott react.
He looked back at the spot where Tony and Steve had vanished.
Then he looked up at the sky.
His mouth opened and closed, then closed and opened again.
"Insane… you're all insane…"
Scott silently lowered his head, pressed the time navigator, and disappeared from his original spot.
In the sky, Lin Feng expanded his bio-force field three to four times to completely envelop Bruce's massive body.
He carried Bruce straight into space.
The air resistance on Earth was too great to allow Lin Feng to reach his theoretical maximum speed.
He needed to borrow the power of three Infinity Stones in space to amplify his flight capabilities.
Lin Feng's flight speed was very fast. In a short while, the two broke through the atmosphere.
"...Man, can you fly this fast?" Bruce exclaimed in amazement.
Lin Feng's initial display of power and speed surprised him. He could actually drag him out of the atmosphere!
This flight speed was probably faster than a rocket!
"There's faster. Are you ready?" Lin Feng's expression was solemn as he observed the optimal flight direction.
"Ready for what?" Bruce asked, somewhat confused.
"Wait for my signal, and press the navigator!" Lin Feng instructed.
With that, without waiting for Bruce to react, Lin Feng pulled him and charged forward violently.
The bio-force field enveloped them, and in mere seconds, their speed was pushed to its limit.
When Lin Feng felt his speed reach its peak, he activated the Infinity Stones.
The three stones of different colors lit up successively, converging into an ineffable energy that surged into Lin Feng's body.
The flight speed increased by a significant margin.
Moreover, as the stones outputted energy, Lin Feng's speed continued to climb, and he even began to glow.
The completely transparent bio-force field also became luminous.
Lin Feng, like a beam of light, dragged Bruce straight forward.
The flight speed relentlessly approached relativistic speeds.
Bruce felt a wave of dizziness wash over him. He couldn't help but feel nauseous.
Even though he was protected by Lin Feng's bio-force field, he had never experienced such speed before.
Even a physically strong being like the Hulk couldn't withstand this speed.
As the speed reached relativistic levels, Lin Feng also began to experience some discomfort.
The massive energy continuously flowing through his body caused him excruciating pain.
He didn't know how fast he needed to fly to meet the system's requirements.
For now, he could only grit his teeth and endure, desperately increasing the energy output.
The flight created a beam of light like a torrent.
Occasionally, small meteors in their path were disintegrated by the passing beam.
Lin Feng's speed continued to climb, surpassing relativistic speeds and steadily approaching the speed of light.
The energy from the Infinity Stones caused his body surface to begin breaking down in varying degrees.
Small pieces of skin detached from his body, then decomposed into fine particles, and finally turned into nothingness.
Lin Feng's body now only possessed the strength of the Man of Steel.
Under the combined effect of the Infinity Stones and the extremely high speed, he couldn't hold on for much longer…
Bruce, the Hulk beneath him, wasn't faring much better.
He did his best to maintain his consciousness and not faint.
Bruce pressed a hand on the time navigator, waiting for Lin Feng's so-called signal!
Soon, the energy output reached the maximum limit that Lin Feng could bear.
At this moment, Lin Feng felt time suddenly slow down.
He had a premonition that he was about to surpass the speed of light.
"Now, host!" The system's voice echoed in Lin Feng's mind, crystal clear!
He felt a surge of energy, the moment had arrived.
"Bruce!"
Lin Feng shouted.
Bruce, who was on the verge of losing consciousness, instinctively pressed the time navigator upon hearing Lin Feng's voice.
The next moment, the two in flight suddenly shrunk at an extreme rate, the beam of light instantly ceased, and they both vanished from this part of the universe…
