Chapter 496
It doesn’t matter whether Bill would believe it or not, but the fact was already in front of him.
“Scott should be with Hank Pym, and they should be on their way on rescuing Janet from the Quantum Field by now. Now, Professor Bill Foster should go say h.e.l.lo over there and help out creating the machine that would safely create a path to return, and at the same time, you should also create the collector for quantum energy. Therefore, we would cure the Ghost in no time!” Dio said casually.
When Dio watched Ant-Man 2, it was a mess! Bill and Eva could just work with Hank to get their hands on Quantum Energy instead of fighting them. They could just cooperate to have a win-win solution. So, why bother making an enemy out of Hank? Eva might hate Hank, but it wasn’t on a personal level. Hank surely fired her parent, but it wasn’t something unusual. At the end of the day, her parent was the reason of their own accident.
Furthermore, in the movie, Dio learned that Eva chose to let go of her hatred towards Hank Pym later on as she was saved thanks to Janet. So, thanks to Dio’s planning, Eva and Bill agreed to do as Dio said. Even so, Bill was a little bit hesitant as he still remembered that working with Hank was h.e.l.l on earth itself!
After finding back her hope, Eva finally smiled again. She was only in her 20s, but she had already experienced so much pain!
“May I ask one more thing?” Bill suddenly asked. He wanted to know about Dio’s power that suddenly robbed Eva of her power earlier as no one was supposed to be able to touch Eva when she was in phased condition.
Dio was surprised by the question as he didn’t know that was the case. He began to wonder if it because of his Hamon Energy. If it were really because of that, then Dio once again discovered the magic of his Hamon Energy as time went by.
He already knew that Hamon Energy could be turned into another type of energy with the help of his Stands. It could become Fire, Electricity, and even could imitate the sun itself! Could Hamon Energy transform into anything?
That was not all; with [Little Feet,] he could shrink the target infinitely. Did infinite in this description also mean shrinking the target into the quantum field? What would happen if he really did that? Does that mean he would be able to use this ability to enter the quantum field freely?
Dio found the idea interesting, but he didn’t dare to try it now as he didn’t have any a.s.surance that it would work as he intended it to.
. . . . . . . . .
Three days later, Scott guided Dio and the team towards Hank’s secret laboratory. Although Hank nor Hope really wanted a guest right now, it was clear that Scott took Dio’s importance to the extreme. Therefore, Hank and Hope couldn’t do anything as Scott was the only one who could return from the quantum field safely!
But as Scott returned with Bill and an unknown woman, Hank wasn’t having it and immediately taunted Bill rudely.
“Oh my G.o.d, look who’s this!? I remember that you swear that you would never see me again in this life, but look what the demon brought!” Hank said rudely.
Bill antic.i.p.ated that Hank would act like this, and thus he has already prepared himself for the beating of Hank’s words. Bill knew that the best thing to do right now was to ignore Hank entirely, and he would eventually get bored.
But as Hank continued to pester him non-stop, Bill finally couldn’t stop himself. “That’s right, G.o.d obviously failed to drag you to h.e.l.l, and because of that, good and innocent people are being hurt left and right!” Bill said rudely.
“You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, what did you just say?” Hank said furiously, but Hope immediately stood between them and reminded Hank that they had to finish the project soon.
Bill immediately changed their topic to Janet since he knew that Janet was the only sensitive topic that Hank could never free himself from the guilt until now.
But Dio, who observed the two of them from the side, was a little curious. From the way it looked, Bill was also at a loss here regarding Janet, and thus, Dio a.s.sumed that Bill also took a liking to Janet. Or maybe, Bill and Hank were once rivals fighting for Janet’s love.
“Calm Down, you two! Do you really have to fight right now?” Scott said as he tried to calm Hank and Bill.
“Let me go! How dare he blame me when my hands are tied! Hope, let me go! I will make his face know how much pain I feel!” Hank said furiously.
“Let’s just go, Eva! I didn’t want to see his arrogant face either!” Bill said as he was fed up by Hank’s att.i.tude.
Dio, who observed from the side, was also exhausted after seeing their exchange. Dio even looked at Eva and immediately knew that she would resort to violence if things didn’t work her way. This was a quite common super agent’s mindset as their mission always involved them killing someone.
