If you say, you have to choose the most unlucky superhero in Thanos's snap of fingers.

Probably none other than the first generation of Ant-Man Hank-Pym.

He is on his own, plus his wife who has just been found, and his dear daughter.

With a snap of the fingers, it directly became a luxury package for the whole family, turning into scattered ashes.

And Scott, the second generation of cheap son-in-law, Ant-Man, escaped by luck, and by the way, his daughter is fine.

This weird random probability and luck problem!

"You're saying that an alien named Thanos came to Earth and snatched ...... What Infinity Stones, and then put them on a glove, snap your fingers, and then the population of the earth is reduced by half? ”

Scott was emotionally unstable, constantly pacing back and forth on the rooftop as if he were suffering from anxiety.

In fact, it is difficult for anyone to calm down when they hear such bad news.

As soon as I opened and closed my eyes, I found that the female ticket was gone, and my father-in-law and mother-in-law were also hanging.

Who can stand it!

"To be precise, the population of the entire universe."

Luke corrected.

"It's not scientific! Why does it have to be snapping your fingers, isn't it okay to stomp your feet and wave your hands? Also, why is it necessary to exterminate the population? For an alien civilization that has entered the interstellar age, it stands to reason that the Malthusian trap should not exist! And I've heard that there is a kind of regulation in the East called 'family planning', which can effectively ......"

Scott began to go into a crazy mode of chattering, his mouth like a cannon, constantly spitting out various words.

It's some kind of stress response.

This manifests itself when there is a great deal of psychological or physical stimulation.

Of course, they tend to be a little more direct to ordinary people.

For example, fainting.

"Mr. Lang, you have so many questions that I don't even know which one to answer first."

Luke interrupted reluctantly.

He can understand the feelings of the second generation of Ant-Man.

But the other party was almost incoherent.

It seems that the demise of the female ticket family has hit Scott hard.

"Besides, you can't expect Thanos, a Titan, to be familiar with the population theory of Earth's civilization and know what the Malthusian trap and family planning are."

Luke holds down Ant-Man's shoulders to stop him from jumping sideways from side to side.

In fact, the so-called "Malthusian trap" refers to the classical theory that "population growth increases according to the geometric progression, while the subsistence resources only grow according to the arithmetic progression, and the additional population always has to be eliminated in some way, and the population cannot exceed the corresponding level of agricultural development".

It was first proposed by an English priest named Malthus.

He believed that over-expansion of the population would lead to a scramble for resources, which would lead to war and extinction.

This coincides with the philosophy that Thanos adheres to, and the purple sweet potato essence also believes that the rapid increase in the population of the universe will produce all kinds of contradictory problems.

So, wiping out half of a life at random with the Infinity Gauntlet of six gems became the best way to avoid disaster - of course, it was only in his opinion.

If you want to solve problems once and for all, you can only taste the bitter fruits in a rough way.

And it does not evaluate whether the random extermination of half of the universe's population violates the spirit of humanitarianism.

You know, when Malthus proposed his theory of population, the Industrial Revolution had not yet arrived.

Therefore, his view has the limitations of the times.

Unbeknownst to him, the subsequent technological explosion had transformed mankind from an agrarian society to an industrial civilization with the roar of machines.

Malthus's prophecy did not come true, or even the exact opposite.

Statistics show that low fertility rates tend to be worse in developed regions.

The abundance of subsistence resources is no longer a shackle that restricts population growth.

If Thanos had known more about Earth's civilization, he would probably have understood that simply erasing life would not end the Malthusian trap.

Because the population will always grow, when the day comes to the tipping point, will it be another snap of the fingers?

Compared with Thanos's brutal methods, family planning and real estate economy are the real way out to regulate the population.

"Casey! By the way, Kathy is fine! ”

After Scott muttered to himself, he suddenly remembered his daughter.

If the Hank-Pym family is gone, it will be erased by Thanos' snap of his fingers.

Wouldn't it be possible for his lovely daughter, the mischievous Casey, to ......

"I confirmed before I came, your little princess is lucky not to be part of the vanished one."

Luke reassured.

"Mr. Lang, we'll let you meet with your daughter later, but before that, we need your help—no, it should be that the earth needs your help."

Seeing the fresh face speak in a serious tone, as did Captain America standing next to him, as did the other Avengers, Scott took a deep breath.

He tried to adjust his mood and asked curiously, "I'm just an insignificant little person, how can I help......"

"Mr. Lang, how long did you stay in the quantum realm just now?"

Luke got straight to the point and asked directly.

"A few, just a few minutes. About a minute and a half. ”

Scott, the second-generation Ant-Man, scratched his head and replied uncertainly.

At first, he thought it was Hope and Hank's prank to scare himself.

I didn't expect that when he came back, there would be no one left.

It's like a world away!

"In fact, it's been more than nine hours since Thanos snapped his fingers."

The corners of Luke's mouth curled slightly, and little by little, he brought the second generation of Ant-Man and the Avengers into his own rhythm.

"In other words, the microscopic universe in the quantum realm is actually not the same as the flow of time in the real world."

"If we can find a way to collect the Infinity Stones before Thanos snaps his fingers, then go back to the present point in time and snap his fingers again, maybe we can bring everyone back! Completely rewrite this ending! ”

Scott frowned slightly, listening carefully.

He has a master's degree in electrical engineering and is with Hank Pym to learn how to be a good "Ant-Man".

So, I quickly understood what Luke was trying to say.

"Wonderful!"

After pondering for a long time, Scott gave a thumbs up and choked the word.

"It's doable, it's the only way to turn the tide. But we need top-notch talent, a time-traveling machine, which is not something that can be made with a few strokes of a hammer! ”

Luke heard this and beckoned back.

Dressed in a knitted sweater and with a scholarly vibe, Bruce Banner walked over.

"We already have one of the best geniuses in the world here, and the next thing to do is to bring back another genius."

Luke has a little more confidence in Bruce Banner than the latter has in himself.

The only pity for him is that he probably didn't see Banner transform into the Hulk.

I've already beaten Thor once, and if you add the Hulk who isn't angry enough, this time trip can be considered complete.

When Luke introduces Banner, Captain America also walks over.

Before he could say anything, Scott, who was a fan brother, grabbed the other party's palm.

"Captain Rogers, meet again! You know, since the last time we broke up at the airport in Germany, I often saw ...... on TV"

During the Avengers Civil War, the second generation of Ant-Man and Captain America were in the same camp and could be regarded as acquaintances.

I have to sigh that Captain America's fans are everywhere.

There was S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Coulson in the past, and later Scott, the second-generation Ant-Man.

Plus Falcon, Spider-Man, etc., you can form a football team.

"Scott, this time I'm going to ask you! Dr. Pym has ...... Erased. No one but him knew the full recipe for the Pym particles. ”

Captain America shows the perfect leadership temperament, which is his greatest strength.

"The Pym particles in you are our only and last hope!"

"No problem, wrap it up on me!"

Scott said, patting his chest.

Luke, who dodged to the side, shook his head and smiled.

It's whimsical to want to compete with Captain America for the leadership position in a universe where Superman never existed.

The other party's personality charm, as well as the aura of a leader, is enough to crush any superhero.

Even Iron Man, who is also a veteran, is difficult to compare with him.

"Fortunately, no matter what universe Captain America is, he is always willing to listen to other people's opinions."

Luke thought silently.

This has to be replaced by Batman on the set next door, let alone taking advice, and there may not even be a little bit of trust.

That's a guy who thinks everyone can be treated as an object of suspicion and never lets his guard off.

"So, is the next step to save Tony?"

Captain America asked softly as he looked at Luke, who was clasping his hands on his chest.

"That's right. But before you can do that, you'll want to welcome a new member. ”

Luke lifted his chin, his super eyesight catching a small black dot breaking into the atmosphere.

That's Captain Marvel!

Carol Danvers!
