Chapter 981: Shock

A few hours later, Scott, who had taken a flight back from New York, arrived home. During the journey, he kept quiet about the events that took place in the warehouse to Dr. Pym and Hope, leading them to believe that Scott had simply lucked out and failed to complete the mission.

As soon as Scott returned to Dr. Pym’s private villa, the doctor erupted in anger, shouting, “You’re being reckless! Don’t you realize what a foolish move it was to reveal Antman’s suit like that?”

Dr. Pym was understandably furious with Scott’s disobedience of his orders to retreat and his persistence in completing the mission, even after being detected by the opposition. Fortunately, Scott had managed to escape this time, but if he had been captured by Stark, the technology behind Antman’s suit and the secrets of Pym Particles could have fallen into Stark’s hands, which was unacceptable to Dr. Pym.

However, Hope stepped in and tried to calm the situation, “Hank, please stop. As long as Scott is back safe, that’s what matters. We’ll figure out another way to handle the mission.”

Hope didn’t believe that Scott’s actions were wrong. In fact, she would have made the same choice to fight. Unfortunately, luck wasn’t on their side this time. The supposed abandoned warehouse turned out to be a heavily guarded base, with two powerful defenders present. Even the Avengers would have struggled against this level of defense.

“Furthermore, we were misinformed this time. Otherwise, Scott would have been able to complete the mission,” Hope added, trying to comfort Dr. Pym.

Dr. Pym’s anger dissipated upon hearing Hope’s words, as he too realized that he bore some responsibility for the mission’s failure. However, without the signal disguiser, infiltrating the heavily guarded Pym Technology Building would not be an easy task. Moreover, after Scott’s previous visit, it would be impossible for him to enter the base again undetected.

Scott stood in silence as he listened to the conversation between Dr. Pym and Hope. Once they were done speaking, Scott finally spoke up.

“Yes, I may have acted impulsively on this mission, but who says it failed?” Scott said as he reached into his waistband and retrieved an object.

Dr. Pym and Hope were both stunned as Scott revealed the signal disguiser, which was invented by Dr. Pym many years ago. He placed it on the table without saying a word.

“This…,” Dr. Pym gasped in disbelief as he gazed upon the signal disguiser.

“Scott, you really did it!” Hope exclaimed, recognizing the significance of the device in front of them. This was the goal of their mission.

“Lucky for us!” Scott exclaimed with a grin, observing Dr. Pym’s countenance and listening to Hope’s statement.

“How did you do it?” Dr. Pym asked Scott, astounded, as he gazed at the signal disguiser in his hand. He had spent a long time examining it and confirmed that it was the one he had created in the past.

Given the circumstances, it seemed unlikely that Scott would have been able to obtain the signal disguiser. After all, no one knew what the warehouse had become. So how did Scott, who had no information, manage to find such a small item?

“Luck, besides, I had someone who helped me.” Hearing what Dr. Pym said, Scott replied in a flat tone.

“Help? Our communication was interrupted at the time. Who else could help you? Don’t tell me Stark suddenly released you. Given the size of the facility, there must be many secrets inside. It could be a manufacturing base for a new Iron Man suit,” Dr. Pym said with a skeptical expression after hearing Scott’s response.

“I’m not sure if that facility is where the latest Iron Man suit is manufactured, but it is a factory for producing parts. Additionally, the manufactured parts are high-tech equipment with incredible precision.” Scott briefly recounted the details of the warehouse situation without revealing how Lin Rui had aided him.

“High-tech equipment? Did you record them?” Dr. Pym asked with curiosity after hearing Scott’s reply.

Despite Dr. Pym’s past criticism of Tony’s Iron Man suit as excessive technology, he still recognized its benefits. As a result, when Scott mentioned the conversion of the warehouse into a factory, Dr. Pym was eager to learn about the details of the high-tech equipment parts.

“I took a few photos and they’re all on this USB drive,” Scott said, handing the prepared USB flash drive to Dr. Pym.

Dr. Pym eagerly grabbed the drive and quickly made his way to the underground lab. With the signal jammer retrieved, their plan could proceed smoothly. He was eager to see the high-tech parts that Scott had captured in his photos.

Watching Dr. Pym’s retreating figure, Scott and Hope exchanged helpless glances. They had no choice but to follow, as they still had to discuss their next steps. Darren Cross’ experiment was approaching success, and it was time for their own plans to take action.

That night, Scott returned to Luis’ apartment after leaving Dr. Pym’s villa. Luis and his friends were curious about Scott’s mysterious absence, but when he told them about their upcoming major heist, everyone was thrilled.

“Scott, you’re not kidding?! We’re really going to target Pym Technology this time?” Luis asked excitedly as Scott settled onto the couch.

“Pym Technology? As in the largest and most technologically advanced company in our city?” Another friend repeated in disbelief.

“That’s right. And this time, we’re working with none other than the founder of Pym Technology, Hank Pym,” Scott added, eager to get some rest.

“Wow! This is insane!”
