"What's missing?" Tony Stark asked.

"How to successfully shrink a living body intact." Darren Krauss replied.

"My mentor, Hank Pym, single-handedly founded Pymtech and when I took over the company, I immediately set out to work on a particle that could change the spacing between atoms. Just increase the density and intensity. Darren Krauss went on to say, "It's a revolutionary idea. ”

"I regret a little bit that this great idea didn't come out of my head. The only thing I can do is to make it as good as I can. I still don't know why this research was dusted down, and even my supervisor, Dr. Pym, didn't allow for in-depth research, but it was too fascinating for me to pretend to be blind to it. ”

Darren Crowston paused for a moment and continued: "The Department of Defense and the military are very interested in this research and think that it will revolutionize the mode of warfare like gunpowder and usher in a whole new era!" I have no doubt about it, because this perception is inherently true. ”

"There's so much it can do, I don't think I can say enough about it. But whoever masters it first can put an end to a modern war. It is the end of war, a universal all-round weapon of war. If, if my research can succeed in shrinking and restoring the living body intact, then it will bring infinite advantages to soldiers on the battlefield. ”

"The battle of Manhattan in New York has taught us that we are not alone in this world, and that there has been an endless stream of superpowered people committing crimes lately. It also makes us understand that our city is not safe! Compared to those superpowered criminals who take advantage of the chaos and wantonly use their abilities to commit crimes, we are all weak ordinary people. ”

"How can we protect ourselves in the face of various threats?"

Darren Krauss raised his arm and tapped his fingers twice. A circular tempered glass trough closed on both sides of the front and back slowly fell from the center of the hive. In the glass trough, there is the yellow painted wasp suit displayed on the virtual screen around it.

It looks small, less than two centimeters in size, but in such a small body, it is perfectly matched with what is shown on the virtual screen. Behind the humanoid body, there are several foldable antennae like insects, as introduced. These tentacles can rotate at 360 degrees almost without dead ends, and the tips of the horns can shoot out light-gun rays with incredible lethality.

"In this crazy age of the need for weapons to protect us, in the face of omnipresent threats and violations. I think we can go back to a simpler time. Stark, Storm, Pym Tech, as long as we can join hands. We can make the world peaceful and peaceful. Darren Krauss's impassioned tone was marked with an undisguised demagogy.

"Very demagogic speech. To be honest, I liked to hear that a few years ago. Tony Stark looked around and casually reached out and patted Darren Krauss on the shoulder, "But you have to understand that pharmaceutical companies dislike human health the most, and arms dealers hate peace the most." ”

"When is this going to be good?" Tony Stark gestured to the Hornets suit in the glass trough. Of course, everyone present is well aware. He wasn't asking about the so-called wasp suit, but about the core Pym particles. "Meng Ao and I didn't come here to listen to your speech, or to see this little toy you fiddled with."

Darren Krauss restrained the smile on his face and turned his head to look at Meng Ao, who was talking to Hope Van Dain from time to time. Glancing at Dalen Krauss's gaze, Meng Ao, who had been listening distractedly to the conversation between the two, waved his hand: "Don't care too much about what Tony says, his mouth has always been piercing. But how long it will take for your research to come to fruition, not only Tony and me, but S.H.I.E.L.D. will want to know that. ”

"Soon." Darren Krauss said:

"If you need any technical support, feel free to contact me and Tony." Meng Ao didn't ask how fast this was, he came over with Meng Ao this time, just to be able to see with his own eyes how far Darren Krauss's research was going, and more requests could not be done with the little Pym Technology stock in their hands.

Tony Stark also understands this truth, so after Meng Ao died down, he also understood the tacit understanding, restrained some of his words, and instead proposed to see Darren Krause personally operate the current Pym particle research.

Darren Krauss didn't refuse, or he wanted to show his research in front of the two weapon makers, Meng Ao and Tony, to prove that his research was on par with the technological weapons technology of Storm and Stark, and he was not boasting.

Hope Van Dain looked through the glass outside the laboratory and watched Darren Krauss eagerly show Meng Ao and Tony Stark the results of his yet-to-be-mature research through the isolation glass outside the laboratory, and a trace of worry crossed his tense face. She believes that what happened today necessitates another deep conversation with her father, Hank Pym.

……

The major media and newspapers are still vigorously reporting all kinds of chaos and crimes of superpowered people from time to time. The country is in turmoil, the financial turmoil caused by the Battle of Manhattan continues to this day, and the frequented crime has added fuel to the tensions and left the White House in a state of flux.

When Hope Van Dain returned home, Dr. Hank Pimpim was flipping through a large stack of these current affairs newspapers and magazines. Since his student Darren Krauss contacted a group of shareholders to remove him from the board, he is now a retired old man in the eyes of everyone. He no longer has the right to meddle in the affairs of Pym Technology, and all he has is the annual financial statements and dividends.

"At worst, Tony Stark and Mon Storm are coming for the Pym particle." Hop Van Dain hung his coat on a hanger, walked up to his father and whispered, "They came to Pym Tech today and were interested in Darren Krauss's research. Your worst fears have become a reality. ”

"So I said, from the beginning, you shouldn't have accepted someone like Stark on the board." Hank-Pym looked away from the newspaper and folded it down in his hand and tossed it aside. "I've spent half my life trying to keep people like Stark and organizations like S.H.I.E.L.D. from getting their hands on this technology."

"I'm sure I don't want to give it away now. That's not Iron Man's armor, it's a technology that can change the meaning of authenticity! The misuse of it by humans can have immeasurable consequences. I didn't expect that I would block Howard Stark, block S.H.I.E.L.D., and when I was old, not Howard's son, and his allies. (To be continued......)
