Chapter 991: Trouble

Da Da Da ~

After Scott’s silhouette vanished into the night, Lin Rui and Bucky lingered for a moment before departing.

The battle had been swift, and despite the helicopter’s wreckage drawing police attention, they were far enough away from the scene of the fight to slip away unnoticed. With two brand new Antman suits in tow, Lin Rui and Bucky made their way back without drawing any attention to themselves.

Upon returning to the city, Lin Rui decided to stay for an additional two days to keep an eye out for any potential aftermath from the battle with Scott and his team.

Additionally, he intended to dedicate some time to studying the intricacies of the Antman suit and Pym Particles. Once Lin Rui had completed his personal research, he planned to hand over both sets of Antman suits to Tony before continuing on with his journey.

That evening, Lin Rui took some time to assess the worth of the Antman suit and Pym Particles in the System Shop. He was pleased to find that the Antman suit was valued at 50,000 Reward points, while the System Shop offered an impressive 200,000 Reward Points for Pym Particle.

It was becoming increasingly clear that the ability to manipulate the Quantum Realm, changing the distance between atoms and even reducing matter infinitely, held an immeasurable value in the realm of time and space.

If Darren Cross and his team of Antman fighters had the ability to freely enter the Quantum Realm, the battle they just faced would have been far from simple. Perhaps Lin Rui’s internal energy field would not have been enough to trap Darren Cross once he entered the Quantum Realm.

“Such a tempting offer,” Lin Rui thought to himself as he examined the generous reward points offered by the System Shop.

Nevertheless, Lin Rui had already obtained the Magic Cube in the past and had even taken part in the Dark Elf’s invasion of Asgard. As a result, he had completed some hidden Missions that rewarded him with a substantial number of reward points. Therefore, Lin Rui was not currently in dire need of reward points.

Pushing aside the allure of the reward points, Lin Rui stowed both sets of Antman battle suits in his portable space. The following day, Lin Rui and Bucky planned to personally test the unique features of the Antman suits and experience the marvel of their ability to grow and shrink.

Just when Lin Rui and Bucky thought that the Antman incident was temporarily resolved and returned to their hotel to rest, Scott, who was on his way back with Darren Cross, received an urgent message from Hope.

Hope warned Scott to hide and not to reveal his face, as some people had suspiciously appeared at the hospital where Dr. Pym was being treated with the Recovery Serum.

Despite Hope’s attempt to inquire about their identities, the group of individuals refused to reveal any information and instead stood outside the hospital ward with blank expressions, seemingly monitoring Hope and Dr. Pym. Hope suspected that these people were affiliated with Darren Cross, and quickly contacted Scott for his safety.

Although relieved that Scott had successfully apprehended Darren Cross, Hope did not want to risk Scott’s safety and instructed him not to return immediately. These individuals were likely waiting for Scott’s return and would not make a move until they confirmed that Darren Cross was caught. Once they knew, they would likely take action.

After disconnecting from Hope, Scott contacted Luis and the others, but they too were being monitored. Fortunately, Luis’ eldest cousin was able to secretly send a message to Scott during the surveillance. With no other options, Scott broke into an unremarkable and abandoned house in the dark to avoid detection.

Huh~

Sitting in the chair, Scott placed the glass bottle containing Darren Cross on the table and took a deep breath. He felt exhausted from tonight’s events. The situation was not what they had expected.

They had not anticipated that Darren Cross would be so reckless and that the people behind him would be so brazen. It seemed that calling the police would be of no use since the other party had not committed any crimes yet.

Scott furrowed his brow, wondering what to do next. “Are we just going to hide like this? What are those guys up to? What’s their end game?” He muttered to himself.

Initially, Scott had thought that the conflict was limited to Pym Technology, and once they took down Darren Cross, they could safely control the technologies of the Antman suit and Pym Particle.

However, the current situation suggested that Darren Cross had already allied with other forces during his research, and they had disrupted his plans. This meant that the forces backing him would not hesitate to take action.

“Dr. Pym is stubborn! If we had informed SHIELD about this earlier, we wouldn’t be feeling so helpless right now!” Scott was at a loss on how to resolve the current predicament and couldn’t help pondering about SHIELD, an organization specialized in dealing with such matters. After all, they were professionals in their field.

However, as an ordinary person, Scott had no means to directly contact SHIELD insiders. For SHIELD to intervene, the incident needed to be discovered and reported by their agents.

However, the Antman incident was contained in a small area and even the police didn’t raise much alarm. As a result, it was unlikely that SHIELD would take notice of the situation.

“Hmph! SHIELD?! Do you truly believe that SHIELD is as competent as you make them out to be?” Just as Scott was seated and pondering to himself, a voice abruptly interjected.

Brush!

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Scott promptly sat upright on his chair and gazed in the direction of the sound. There, in front of him, stood Darren Cross within the glass bottle, observing Scott from inside. Evidently, the remark earlier had come from him.

After being incapacitated by Lin Rui’s internal energy, Darren Cross had finally regained consciousness. Despite being trapped within the glass bottle, which had neutralized his Antman suit, Darren Cross appeared unfazed.

“What are you talking about? Your actions pose a significant threat to public safety. If SHIELD becomes aware of your intentions with the Antman suit and PymParticle technology, they will certainly hold you accountable,” Scott retorted in a raised voice upon hearing Darren Cross’s statement.
