Chapter 1000: Spelled
Of course, It was evident to Scott that both Team A and Team B had failed, as he had control over both of them. Even though controlling the brain waves of flying ants was a simple task, Scott felt the tragedy of his fallen flying ants when they attacked the Antman fighters.
As a result, he was left with Team C and an extremely ugly expression on his face.
“Damn Darren Cross! If I find you again! You will never live another second!” Scott’s anger was directed towards Darren Cross for causing this situation, and he swore to take revenge if he ever found him.
Although not all the flying ants were dead, Scott had no means of saving them, and so his frustration was aimed at his lost enemy.
“Number 153! Speed up!” Despite his rage, Scott knew better than to engage in a desperate fight with the Antman soldier. Instead, he urged his remaining flying ants to accelerate and attempt to flee from the danger.
While trying to escape, Scott attempted to contact Luis, who had been in touch with him since the disappearance of the unidentified group the previous night.
However, the re-emergence of that same team had cut off their communication, and it was clear that the other party was blocking their signals.
At this point, Scott had little chance of survival and was forced to rely on his unreliable teammates.
He assumed that the two mysterious people who had helped him the previous night had already left with the Antman suit and Pym Particles, as there was no reason for them to stay and create more problems. However, Scott was mistaken.
Hoo!
“Damn it!” Scott narrowly avoided a laser beam attack as the ten teams of Antmen followed closely behind him.
Zi Zi Zi~
As Scott rode Flying Ant No. 153 and led Team C into a dilapidated house, he heard the sound of signal transmission from the communication device he had been trying to connect. This lifted his spirits.
“Luis! Can you hear me? I’m under attack right now! Hurry up and save me! Tell the police to send a helicopter, this place is surrounded!” Stark yelled a few more words before the noise in the communicator faded away.
Unfortunately, it seemed that the communication was not yet fully restored, as there was no response from Luis. However, just as Scott’s hope began to fade, an unfamiliar voice suddenly spoke up.
“I’m behind you, Scott,” A strange voice spoke up, causing Scott to feel nervous.
“Who are you?!” Scott asked anxiously, confused by the sudden appearance of a voice. He was being chased by Antman teams, so how could this person connect to his communication device? His thoughts were in disarray.
“I’m here to help you. Have you forgotten what happened last night?” The other person responded quickly to Scott’s query.
With those words, Scott finally remembered the powerful ally he had encountered the previous night. This strange voice belonged to Bucky, who had snuck up on the Antman fighters while wearing his own Antman suit.
“It’s you! Why haven’t you left yet?!” Scott exclaimed excitedly, recognizing the voice.
“I was about to leave, but I noticed that you’re still in trouble, so I came back to assist you before I leave,” Bucky explained briefly, surprising Scott with his unexpected return.
As Bucky spent more time with Lin Rui, he found himself gradually becoming more like a regular person. Perhaps, this was due in part to the progress he had made in recovering his memories.
It had been months since Bucky broke free from Hydra’s control, and the mental trauma he suffered during that time was slowly healing.
It was worth noting that Bucky Barnes was a handsome young man over 60 years ago, and he was not as cold and distant as he seemed to be now.
“Thank you! Where are you now? I have a whole team of Antman soldiers chasing me!” Scott expressed his gratitude, but he was also concerned about the current situation.
If the strong warrior had shown up, then the young man with extraordinary strength might also make an appearance. Given the incredible strength he displayed the previous night, he should be able to handle ten Antman soldiers with ease.
However, aside from the Antman soldiers, there were dozens of armed fighters surrounding the area, and they needed to break through their defenses before they could reach Scott.
“Don’t worry, I see them. Trust me, wait for the countdown to finish, then fight back. I’ll be there to help.” Bucky reassured Scott.
Despite facing ten Antman fighters, Bucky remained confident due to his own strength. He knew that in a battle where both sides had the same equipment, the determining factor was their individual capabilities.
If Bucky could take on ten opponents at once without the Antman suit, he could certainly do so while wearing it. Furthermore, he had Lin Rui on the way to help.
“Great. I believe you,” Scott replied earnestly after a brief moment of hesitation.
In Scott’s opinion, Bucky and Lin Rui were far more dependable than his unreliable friend Luis, despite only having met them twice. Their abilities spoke for themselves.
“Five… Four… Three… Two… One… Begin the counterattack!” Bucky announced through the communication device, his voice serving as a signal for the start of the ambush.
As soon as the countdown ended, Scott’s eyes locked onto the Antman team chasing him. Controlling 157 Flying Ants, he circled around and made a swift attack on the enemy.
“Let’s go!” Scott shouted as he charged into battle.
Swipe!
With limited weapons at his disposal, Scott forcefully threw three metal darts toward the enemy. These were among the last few weapons he had, and he had to make them count. As the darts flew toward the enemy, Scott and the members of Team C took cover and charged toward them.
It was a risky move, but Scott had no other choice. He knew that the distance between them was too great, and the odds of this counterattack succeeding were slim.
The sudden turn of events caught the Antman team off guard, and their reaction was slower than usual. They were surprised by Scott’s sudden aggression.
But they quickly regained their composure, and laser beams shot toward the three darts, trying to destroy them before they could reach their targets.
Pū Pū Pū!
The metal dart shattered into pieces under the joint attack of more than a dozen laser beams before it could even be enlarged.
The Antman team was focused on the flying ants and didn’t notice a figure wearing the same Antman suit as them approaching rapidly from behind.
