Whew!
Scott felt a bit dizzy after repeatedly hitting the glass without breaking it. Nevertheless, the situation outside had worsened rapidly over the past few seconds. If he didn’t try breaking through again, there was a risk of him actually losing his life.
“I knew it wouldn’t go so smoothly!” Scott muttered as he rose from the ground. He shook his head and retrieved two metal darts from his waist.
Brush!
Without hesitation, Scott hurled the two darts toward the front glass. He swiftly followed them, and just as the darts were about to hit the glass, he deftly pressed down on the instrument clutched in his right hand.
Boom!
Hula la!
The laboratory was in disarray as Darren Cross and Hope appeared to have drawn their guns and were confronting each other. However, at that moment, the glass box enclosing them suddenly shattered, and two enlarged metal darts shot out, followed by Scott who rushed out.
“Ah!~~”
“Help!!”
“Run!”
Da Da~ Hula La~
As Scott shattered the glass box with a dart and burst out, the terrified directors screamed in horror and scattered in all directions. The already chaotic laboratory descended into further pandemonium. The security personnel deployed by Darren Cross struggled to regain control of the situation, but the directors were still present, complicating matters.
“Damn it!” Darren Cross muttered under his breath upon witnessing the shattered glass box.
Boom!
As Darren Cross was momentarily distracted, Dr. Pym, who had been held at gunpoint by him, seized the opportunity to rush towards him.
“Hope, get out now!” Dr. Pym shouted loudly as he held back Darren Cross. At that moment, he was solely focused on ensuring his daughter’s safety, even at the cost of his own.
“Dad, watch out!” Despite their past disagreements, Hope couldn’t bear to abandon Dr. Pym at this critical moment. She ran towards them as Dr. Pym held onto Darren Cross.
Pū Pū Pū!
As Dr. Pym and Hope engaged in a struggle against Darren Cross, Scott had already taken down all the security guards after rushing out of the glass box.
Boom!
As Scott dispatched the security personnel and was about to assist Dr. Pym and Hope, a gunshot suddenly rang out in the laboratory. The board of directors, who had been fleeing in terror, were even more panicked and sprinted away at full speed.
“Dad!” Hope cried out nervously amidst the chaos of the laboratory after the gunshot.
Huh~
As Dr. Pym fell to the ground clutching his chest, a small figure rushed over and grew rapidly behind him, reaching out to support him. It was Scott, who had arrived just moments too late after taking down the security guards under Darren Cross’s orders.
“Dr. Pym!” Scott cried out nervously as he gently helped Dr. Pym to lie down on the ground.
“Dad!” Hope had already rushed over by the time Scott had helped Dr. Pym to the ground.
“Cough~ I’m fine, I’m not going to die just yet!” Dr. Pym reassured them despite the gunshot wound in his chest, noticing the anxious and nervous expressions on Hope and Scott’s faces.
“Dad! Stop talking! Stop talking!” Hope pleaded, holding Dr. Pym’s hand tightly with a nervous and sorrowful expression on her face.
“Scott, don’t let Ross get away with the new Ant-Man suit. We have to stop him,” Dr. Pym said with difficulty, taking a deep breath.
“But what about you?” Scott hesitated, concerned about Dr. Pym’s well-being.
“I’ll be fine. Go!” Dr. Pym insisted.
“Okay…Anton!” Scott agreed reluctantly, knowing Dr. Pym’s unwavering determination, and called out to his ride.
Buzz Buzz!
When Scott called for Anton Ant, the insect quickly flew over to him. Scott then shrank in size, jumped on Anton Ant’s back, and chased after Darren Cross who had already fled.
Despite having the new Antman suit, Darren Cross knew that he couldn’t face Antman in combat and made a quick escape. With the help of his security personnel, he ran towards the top floor of the Pym Technology Building, all the while creating obstacles to slow down Scott’s pursuit.
“Block the building, don’t let him follow me!” Darren Cross shouted to his security team as he continued to flee.
“Yes, sir!”
“Get the helicopter ready, and grab the battle suits! We need to leave now!” Realizing that flying away was the fastest way to escape Antman, Darren Cross gave the order to start the helicopter and leave the building as soon as possible.
As Darren Cross made his way to the top floor with the protection of his security, Scott faced multiple obstacles during his pursuit. However, unbeknownst to them, Lin Rui and Bucky had been in the city and keeping tabs on the situation at Pym Technology. As Scott infiltrated the facility as planned, Lin Rui and Bucky discreetly positioned themselves at the gate, next to the logistics vehicle where Luis’ cousin and friend were waiting.
“Jackson, won’t you make a move? Depending on the situation, Scott may not be able to stop that guy named Darren Cross from leaving.” Bucky couldn’t help but speak as he stood on the side of the road, watching the scenario on Lin Rui’s tablet.
Lin Rui held a tablet displaying all the information about Scott’s current situation. As he approached Luis and their logistics vehicle to hack into their system, Bucky asked Jackson to take action. However, Lin Rui simply shook his head in response.
“Dr. Pym should be okay, the shot didn’t hit a vital point. And Scott will undoubtedly be able to overcome those obstacles and catch up to Darren Cross. However, I can’t shake the feeling that Darren Cross still has some tricks up his sleeve,” Lin Rui said with a frown as he shook his head.
Assuming the story follows the original plot, Scott would pursue Darren Cross as he makes his escape in a helicopter. However, Darren would also put on the new Antman suit and engage in a prolonged fight with Scott, leading all the way back to Scott’s home. Eventually, Scott would defeat Darren by entering the Quantum Realm.
Lin Rui could potentially minimize the risk of Scott entering the Quantum Realm by incapacitating Darren Cross, who is currently on the top floor of the Pym Technology Building. The building’s height is not a problem for Lin Rui, making it a viable option to prevent further danger.
