Heroes of Marvel

Chapter 992: Interrogation

As Scott questioned him, Darren Cross’s eyes filled with increasing disdain. If he wasn’t wearing the Antman suit’s helmet, Scott would have witnessed it himself.

“What am I planning to do with the Antman suit and Pym Particle technology? Scott, you don’t understand me. I’m not like Hank Pym, that old, rigid guy. I’m not just a scientist, I’m a businessman! And what do businessmen care about the most? It’s profit! Do you really believe that I have dedicated years of hard work to research the Antman suit and Pym Particle out of pure scientific curiosity?!” Darren Cross retorted loudly with disdain while standing inside the glass bottle, in response to Scott’s questioning.

Compared to a purely scientific researcher like Hank Pym, Darren Cross possessed a scientific research-oriented business mindset.

This is why he had been able to successfully oust Dr. Pym from Pym Technologies, the major technology company that he founded, and assume control over the majority of its directors. Follow current s on novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

Darren Cross recognized the vast potential of the Antman suit and Pym Particle technology in various fields, which motivated him to research them at the expense of Dr. Pym.

Furthermore, during the research process, Darren Cross actively sought out other individuals to support him in his endeavors. It was this covert backing that allowed Darren Cross to persist and eventually succeed in his research.

“Businessman? Benefits? How could you treat technology like the Antman suit and Pym Particle as mere commodities? They are priceless!” Scott yelled in anger upon hearing Darren Cross’s words.

“Heh heh… Everything has a price, it just depends on whether the other party can afford it. Unfortunately for you, the person I’m working with can pay that price,” Darren Cross replied disdainfully from inside the glass bottle as Scott seethed with anger.

Upon hearing Darren Cross’s words, Scott suddenly had a foreboding feeling in his heart.

“Who are you collaborating with? And…you wouldn’t have used the Antman suit and Pym Particle technology for…illegal purposes?” Scott asked with a trembling voice, reaching out to grasp the glass bottle.

Based on Darren Cross’s earlier statements, it appears that the organization he’s working with is quite powerful and may have some sort of connection with SHIELD.

It’s possible that they have already obtained the Antman suit and Pym Particle technology, rendering all of Scott and Dr. Pym’s hard work useless. Scott realizes this and begins to feel a sense of despair.

“Heh, you’re not completely clueless after all. I’ve already sold several sets of Antman suits and Pym Particles to my partners during the day,” Darren Cross cackled in response to Scott’s question.

Just like that, Scott’s worst fears are confirmed – Darren Cross has indeed handed over the Antman suit and Pym Particle technology to his collaborators. This means that all of the time and effort put into retrieving the technology will be for naught.

Boom!

Upon hearing Darren Cross’s admission, Scott couldn’t contain his anger and impulsively swiped the glass bottle off the table with his hand. As the bottle flew through the air, Scott anxiously chased after it, fearful that breaking the bottle might release Cross from his confinement.

Despite his efforts, Scott’s reflexes were too slow, and the glass bottle hit the floor, much to the delight of Darren Cross watching from within.

Bang~~

The glass bottle hit the ground and rolled a few times before coming to a stop, but it remained unscathed. It was a testament to the quality of the product produced by Lin Rui or System Shop – it couldn’t be smashed easily, even after enduring all sorts of abuse.

Hoo~

“Wow, that was close! This glass bottle is of excellent quality, but I have no clue where that young man got it from,” Scott exclaimed as he hurried over. With the bottle now still, he let out a sigh of relief and muttered to himself as he picked it up.

As Scott muttered to himself, Darren Cross, whose face was already contorted with displeasure from the unbroken glass bottle, turned even greener. Despite the powerful supporters he had behind the scenes, the young man who had effortlessly defeated him and trapped him had taken Darren Cross aback. As Scott had just implied, the young man’s background was clearly not to be underestimated. If this young man were to turn against him, Darren Cross couldn’t help but feel that things might take an unexpected turn.

Boom!

As Darren Cross was worrying about Lin Rui, Scott placed the glass bottle back on the table. In an attempt to release his anger, Scott shook the glass bottle with great force, causing Darren Cross inside to roll around several times.

It was clear that Scott was still furious about Darren Cross’s plan and disregard for the importance of the Antman suit and Pym Particle technology. With each shake, Darren Cross became more and more disoriented, his body tumbling around inside the glass bottle.

“Darren, is this really your best?” Despite being trapped in a glass bottle, Darren Cross maintained a tone of strength and confidence.

“Tell me, Darren, who are you working with? Do you realize the danger of letting the Ant-Man suit and Pym particles fall into the wrong hands? The world would be in complete chaos!” Scott shouted at Darren with anger and frustration.

“Is this world really that stable? We had an alien invasion not long ago, and things have already changed,” Darren replied dismissively to Scott’s concerns.

As a businessman, Darren knew better than to reveal the identities of his collaborators. He had only sold a few sets of Ant-Man suits and Pym particles, but he had not sold the complete technology. If his buyers wanted more, they would have to continue cooperating with him.

Despite being trapped by Scott, Darren remained confident that his allies would come to his rescue. He just needed to hold on until then.

“Damn it!” Scott exclaimed, realizing that arguing with Darren was pointless. He considered locking Darren up for life or even killing him, as he felt that people like Darren posed a serious threat to society.
