Chapter 986: Support

Hurrah!

“d.a.m.n it! d.a.m.n it!” Scott exclaimed as he spun and plummeted toward the ground. The dizziness had already set in, leaving him with no option but to weakly cry out as he struggled to escape from his perilous situation.

Prior to executing today’s plan, Scott had never envisioned being thrust into such a dire predicament. Having undergone extensive Antman training, he had adeptly a.s.similated Antman’s attributes and combat techniques, thereby enabling him to accomplish a myriad of arduous missions. 

Though he had required external a.s.sistance to procure the signal camouflage device during his last mission, Scott had felt confident in his abilities alongside his two formidable allies.

Furthermore, compared to the Pym Technology building, Scott and Dr. Pym had agreed that Stark’s warehouse, which had been transformed into a secret base, was far more heavily guarded. 

From Scott’s accounts and the materials he had brought back, it seemed that the items being produced in that base were even more crucial than the Antman suit itself. However, for the sake of preserving his reputation, Dr. Pym would never concede to this notion.

As a result, both Scott and Dr. Pym believed that their plan to infiltrate the warehouse that evening was foolproof. 

However, neither of them had considered that Darren Cross was already aware of their intentions to steal the Antman suit, and had devised a plan to thwart their efforts while also capturing Scott and eliminating Dr. Pym. Had Scott not managed to break free from his captors, Dr. Pym and the rest of the team would have been in grave peril tonight.

With Anton Ant out of commission and Dr. Pym unable to provide a.s.sistance, the A, B, and C teams en route would take some time to arrive. At present, it seemed that Scott was the only one capable of helping himself and his team. Even though the odds were against him in this situation, Scott was determined to make an attempt.

As he was being pursued by Darren Cross and the Antman team, Scott reached for the communicator attached to his waist. He knew that his enemies were hot on his heels, but he also knew that he had to take the chance to try and contact his team for backup.

“I’m right beneath you. If you can create some distance between you and your pursuers, I can provide a.s.sistance,” Lin Rui’s voice came through the communicator as soon as Scott took it out.

When Anton Ant had been struck and fell, Lin Rui had been poised to take action. However, with Scott and Darren Cross in such close proximity, Lin Rui was at risk of causing accidental harm. 

After all, they were now the size of ants. While Scott may have thought there was still some distance between them, from Lin Rui’s perspective, they were only a few centimeters apart. Lin Rui’s sword energy would have to be precise enough to avoid striking Scott and reach Darren Cross and his team.

“Create some distance? Okay!” Scott didn’t know why Lin Rui happened to be beneath him, but he didn’t have time to ponder it. He immediately agreed and said, “Anton, you go down first, I’ll follow you!”

Scott quickly patted Anton Ant, urging him to descend while he readied himself for what was to come. He hoped that with Lin Rui’s a.s.sistance, he would be able to overcome his enemies and complete the mission.

Boom!

In the next moment, Scott leaped off of Anton Ant’s back. As he jumped, Darren Cross and his team continued their pursuit. However, just as they closed in on Scott, he suddenly pressed a b.u.t.ton on his right hand.

Buzz Buzz!

Instantly, Scott grew larger but not to his normal size, instead, he was now about the size of a Barbie doll. Before Darren Cross and his team could react, Scott twisted in mid-air and kicked toward them. 

Boom!

Darren Cross and the other new Antmans were caught off guard and could only enlarge themselves before being knocked away by Scott’s sudden kick. Scott quickly shrunk down to the size of an ant from the Barbie doll and plummeted toward the ground, avoiding any harm. Meanwhile, the Antman team members were pushed back, creating some distance between them and Scott.

“The opportunity is good!” Lin Rui immediately seized the opportunity presented by Scott’s maneuver and swiftly equipped a small laser gun into his hand, ready to take action. His eyes gleamed with determination as he focused on the task at hand.

Pū! Pū Pū!

Bucky looked surprised as Lin Rui raised his laser gun and aimed it at the sky before shooting. Using the laser gun instead of his signature weapon, the Beheading Spirit Sword, allowed Lin Rui to keep his ident.i.ty as a supporter hidden.

“Let’s go, we need to pick him up. I might need your help later,” Lin Rui said to Bucky after firing a few shots in mid-air and retracting his gun.

Then, Lin Rui and Bucky quickly made their way towards the spot where Scott had fallen, while the Antman team led by Darren Cross had to dodge Lin Rui’s precise laser strikes and were now some distance away from Scott. 

Lin Rui’s marksmans.h.i.+p was impressive, and he could have easily taken out some of the villains in the Antman team with his laser gun, but he had other plans in mind.

As Lin Rui rushed to the place where Scott had fallen, Darren Cross grew even angrier due to the disruption caused by Lin Rui’s shots. In response, he activated the second combat form of the new Antman suit. 

The two pairs of wings on his back retracted into the suit, and three metal spider legs emerged, each equipped with sharp weapons and laser beams.

The new Antman suit designed by Darren Cross is equipped with powerful weapons for individual attacks, which is a departure from the fundamental purpose of the Antman suit designed by Dr. Pym, which is to use size to accomplish special missions. 

By doing so, Cross may have compromised the suit’s core ability. However, Cross is focused on making the Antman suit more powerful as he and his supporters require combat power.

As the wings retracted, Darren Cross and the other three new Antmans descended towards Scott who was about to hit the ground. Meanwhile, Lin Rui and Bucky also rushed toward Scott to stop Cross’s pursuit. Darren had also taken notice of Lin Rui’s sharpshooting earlier.

Ordinarily, two Antmans would easily overpower a lone opponent armed only with a laser gun. However, Darren Cross’s a.s.sessment was flawed this time, as the Antmans had no idea what kind of adversaries they were up against.
