Chapter 987: Experiment
Brush!
As they approached Scott’s landing spot in the dark street, Lin Rui suddenly came to a halt only a few tens of meters away. Bucky, who was following close behind, also stopped abruptly.
Hoo!
Then, Lin Rui immediately tossed the laser gun he was holding to Bucky and also offered him a set of advanced glasses. As soon as Bucky caught the laser gun and put on the glasses, he realized that everything he saw was enveloped in a soft green glow, with distinct lines marking various objects, and even occasional data fluctuations.
Despite using tactical goggles during his time with Hydra, the glasses provided by Lin Rui had a significant advantage. As Bucky put them on and glanced over at Lin Rui, the glasses displayed Lin Rui’s basic physical information, including an accurate strength estimation.
“Ordinary firearms won’t work against Antman, and laser beams are only effective if they hit their mark. These glasses will help you locate your target. If you can detonate these bombs up close, you might be able to destroy their suits,” Lin Rui explained, hastily passing Bucky two miniature electromagnetic bombs he had acquired from the System Shop.
During Scott’s invasion of Stark’s secret base in the northern suburbs of New York, Lin Rui learned about the battle with the two Iron Man warriors and knew that electromagnetic attacks could briefly disable the Antman suit. That’s why he obtained the bombs for Bucky, who was still struggling to handle Antman despite his strength.
Ever since recovering his memory and reopening the System Shop, Lin Rui noticed a sudden increase in his Reward points. Perhaps it was linked to some of his previous experiences, but he didn’t dwell on it too much. At that moment, he was relieved to finally obtain items according to his needs.
“I understand. I’ve located them,” Bucky replied, taking the electromagnetic bombs from Lin Rui. He had already spotted two tiny figures approaching them through the glasses, which he had quickly become familiar with.
During Scott’s fall from the apartment building, Bucky was unable to see what Antman really looked like. However, with the glasses provided by Lin Rui, Bucky could finally see Antman’s appearance clearly. It was similar to what he had imagined, tiny people in battle suits resembling miniature toys. Without Lin Rui’s reminder, Bucky might not have taken the villain seriously at all.
“I’ll handle one, and leave the others to you,” Lin Rui said, able to spot the two approaching Antmans without using the glasses. With that, he vanished in an instant.
Brush!
Bucky was unfazed by Lin Rui’s speed, having already witnessed it during the encounter with Blackheart in Rochester. With Lin Rui now gone, Bucky could only barely track his movements through the glasses before refocusing his attention on the two approaching Antmans.
Pū!
Bucky’s calm expression did not waver as he watched Lin Rui swiftly dispatch the two approaching Antmans with ease. With the immediate threat eliminated, Lin Rui proceeded to make his way toward the location where Scott had fallen.
Bucky knew that he no longer had to worry about the Antman that had been taken down by Lin Rui. His attention was now focused on the Antman who was stunned by the sudden turn of events.
…
Boom!
Scott had fallen for over ten seconds before finally hitting the concrete road with a loud crash, creating a small hole in the solid surface. Ignoring the pain coursing through his body, Scott quickly got up and began scanning the area for Anton Ant’s whereabouts.
In the next second, he leaped away from the spot, narrowly avoiding several laser beams that had been fired in his direction by Darren Cross and his team, who had already caught up to him.
Boom!
“Damn it! What about the help you promised?” Scott yelled, gripping his communicator tightly as he rapidly increased in size and ran towards a dark alley.
“I’m here,” Lin Rui’s voice responded, catching Scott off guard. However, the voice did not come through the communicator as he had expected but rather from beside him.
Brush!
As Scott ran, he saw a dark figure flash in front of him, and then there was another person behind him and realized that it is the young man who had given him some tips that night.
“Be careful! There are six of them!” Scott shouted loudly, worried that the stranger might get hurt.
Unbeknownst to Scott, Darren Cross had dispatched two Antmans to intercept Lin Rui and Bucky. But since Scott was only focused on running, he was unaware of the missing enemies.
“It’s alright. There are only four left now,” Lin Rui replied calmly, after hearing Scott’s warning.
“Four? Four is still hard to deal with!” Scott was taken aback by Lin Rui’s response, and continued to shout.
Lin Rui didn’t respond, as Darren Cross and his team had already caught up with them. Upon seeing Lin Rui, Darren Cross rushed to finish him off with a single blow, without realizing how the young man had moved so quickly. With Antman’s size and strength, if he landed a full punch, it would be like being hit by a bullet.
Swipe!
Led by Darren Cross, the four Antmans charged toward Lin Rui. Despite being fast enough to dodge the attack, Lin Rui chose to release his internal energy defense layer to test its ability to withstand the Antmans’ attack.
Hum~
Scott looked on in surprise as a light green aura suddenly enveloped Lin Rui’s body. The next moment, Darren Cross and his Antman soldiers collided with the shield created by Lin Rui.
Pū Pū Pū Pū!
There was a series of four muffled sounds, like flies hitting the glass, as Darren Cross and the other three Antmans collided with Lin Rui’s internal energy defense layer, only to be mercilessly bounced away.
“It seems that my internal energy defense can withstand attacks at this level, but I’m not sure if it can block Antman from entering the Quantum Realm.” Lin Rui was not too surprised by the four ejected Antmans and murmured to himself.
“What is this?! What’s happening?!” Scott, who was standing beside him, widened his eyes in shock as he watched Darren Cross and the others being repelled by the sudden green light emitting from Lin Rui’s body.
