American comics: I became a god at the beginning, I chose to practice both science and magic

"This is a quantum shuttle, a tool that can allow us to leave this world..." Dane briefly explained how it worked.

Although it is just a few words, it is the result of Bill Foster's life's research.

After listening to Dane's story, Janet's eyes immediately flashed with anticipation, as if a person in despair suddenly saw hope.

"So...we can leave this world now?"

"Anytime." Dane nodded.

Janet thought she understood the other party's thoughts. As long as they left the quantum realm, no matter how powerful Kang was, it would have nothing to do with them. The other party could not leave this world at all.

But doing so would be equivalent to abandoning our fellow rebels here.

Janet hesitated for only a few seconds before making a decisive choice.

After all, she didn't hesitate for long in the movie, because her departure led to the resistance being wiped out by Kang. She had already prepared herself mentally for this.

Dane knew exactly what she was thinking, but he didn't explain anything. He just used his psychic powers to control the remaining rebels and asked them to guard the shuttle.

Because the time in the two worlds is not synchronized, Dane doesn't know how long it will take for these 800 sides to pass when he returns again.

Perhaps Kang would capture the base before they arrived, but without Pym particles, it would be useless even if Kang got a shuttle.

After completing his preparations, Dane activated his suit to shrink and flew into the shuttle.

Seeing this, Janet immediately used her remaining Pym particles, shrunk her body and entered the quantum shuttle.

The shuttle started working immediately. After reaching the critical point, Janet felt like she had passed through a world membrane. This feeling was not unfamiliar to her. There were countless such world membranes in the quantum field.

But this time, after passing through the membrane, she no longer came to another world, but a void. Here, she could not tell up, down, left, or right, but there were countless forces in different directions pulling at her, making her very uncomfortable.

Immediately afterwards, she felt a sudden change in her body. For some reason, her originally shrunken body suddenly began to grow huge, but it stopped after reaching a certain size.

She was running low on Pym particles.

Beside her, another huge figure suddenly appeared. Janet looked up and found that it was Dane.

She suddenly felt a little panicked, wondering if she would be abandoned.

At this moment, she saw Dane lower his head and open his palms towards her who was at a loss.

Five huge fingers were like five mountains, blocking Janet's vision in the blink of an eye.

Then she could no longer see or feel anything.

Chapter 981 War preparations

In the real world, in the low-Earth orbit Pioneer space station, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the quantum shuttle, and Dane reappeared.

The moment he appeared, the Cortana clone in the battle suit immediately established contact with the original body, and completed information exchange in just a few minutes.

"Welcome back, Dane."

Dane glanced at the time. He felt that about eighty hours had passed in the quantum world, but in reality only four minutes and thirty-five seconds had passed.

Ant-Man Scott was trapped in the quantum realm for less than five hours during the Flash, but five years passed in reality. Obviously, this ratio is not fixed and there is great uncertainty.

Dane opened his arms, and several mechanical arms suddenly appeared around him, removing his battle suit one by one.

He opened his right hand and saw Janet, who had fallen into a coma, lying quietly in his palm.

Phastos's manufacturing ability was immediately activated, and he created a transparent spherical container in the palm of his other hand, with a gap on it that was only big enough for the index finger to pass through.

Throw Janet in and seal the gap.

"Cortana, extract the quantum energy matter from her."

Compared to himself, Janet, who has lived in the quantum world for many years, is obviously more deeply affected by that world. According to the speed of cell renewal, a large part of her body should have been completely converted into matter from the quantum world.

Janet herself is a treasure waiting to be developed, and Cortana's quantum brain activity plan will most likely find a way from her.

If Janet's smart brain can be replicated on the quantum brain, the final result will be even more exciting.

"By the way, Cortana, check me out too."

If his perception of his body was correct, he had brought back a lot of things from the quantum realm.

However, for a long time, Cortana did not detect anything from Dane that did not belong to this world. In comparison, Janet had more special substances on her body and was easier to collect.

While Cortana was doing whatever she wanted to Janet, Dane began to study the laws of time in the quantum field.

Since Tony Stark has confirmed in Avengers: Endgame that time travel using the quantum realm is feasible, it means that he should also be able to choose the right time to enter the quantum world according to his needs.

This would eliminate the time difference between when he left and re-entered the quantum world, and he later proved that this method was indeed feasible.

I have to say here that in the final battle, when the Avengers traveled through time, they did not go back to the past on the current timeline, but traveled to another universe parallel to the current timeline.

That is, a parallel branch timeline of the divine timeline.

In this way, the "Grandmother Paradox" can be circumvented. For other people in parallel timelines, the Avengers who carried out the "time and space hijacking" plan are just another possibility for the future. Looking back at the upstream of time from the perspective of the future, they did not change history. They are part of the established history.

This is different from Kang the Conqueror's temporal abilities. In the Loki series, it was revealed that Kang may have the ability to modify a single timeline, which is a terrifying ability.

As a mortal remnant, he is no match for Loki, but he always manages to avoid every attack of Loki because he uses the power of time to conduct countless trial and error on the same timeline.

It is equivalent to figuring out the boss's behavior patterns from countless death experiences when fighting the boss, so as to avoid it.

From this point of view, the people left behind were not in the same time dimension as others from the beginning. This is why he, a mere mortal, can cause chaos in countless timelines.

In the face of such cheating abilities, the combat power of a single universe is simply not enough. Even if it can easily kill the remaining people, it is very likely that what it will catch up with in the end is just a shadow of his past.

Perhaps only by reaching the level of the all-gem Vision or the Observer in "What If?" can one be immune to this strange time ability.

But the interesting thing is that Kang's time ability does not come from himself, but from a piece of equipment, and this equipment can be used by anyone.

Dane felt that Janet was extremely stupid back then. Faced with a magical artifact like the Time Orb, her first choice was to destroy it instead of taking it for herself.

She could clearly replace Kang the Conqueror and become the new Legacy.

The more Dane studied the laws of time in the quantum field, the more he felt that it was a treasure trove.

Not only are there all kinds of precious and incredible biological and mineral resources, but even the void in the quantum field now seems to have huge potential for development.

When the Avengers carried out the "time and space hijacking" plan, they simply used the quantum realm as a channel for time travel. They only briefly passed through the void of the quantum realm and did not stay.

Dane was thinking, what if he built a base directly in this space?

By utilizing the properties of Pym particles, he might be able to build a space station that can exist stably in the quantum void, which can avoid the influence of time and radiate countless parallel universes, which is equivalent to owning the resources of countless universes.

He carefully deduced it and found that it was highly feasible.

However, the quantum void itself is not suitable for the survival of ordinary organisms. If one wants to maintain a long-term stable state of existence by relying solely on Pym particles, the number of Pym particles that need to be consumed every moment will be quite large.

If this problem is not solved, all plans will be just empty talk.

While Dane was thinking about a solution, he did not forget to issue a call to war to Atlas.

Because the target of the war is not any country on Earth, but the enemy in the quantum field, there is no need to cover up this war, and they can show their true strength.

A week later, a new large-scale quantum shuttle was built on the lunar base. Fastos's ability was really useful. A large-scale technological building like this could be easily constructed without spending a lot of time and manpower.

The new quantum shuttle is a giant cylindrical object, its size making it look more like an asteroid-like celestial body than a man-made object.

In order to conceal its existence, Dane built it on the back of the moon and asked Cortana to rewrite the image data of many detection satellites to ensure that they could not see this thing.

The Astartes and Atlas Armored Corps have been organized into a fleet. Compared with the high-tech fighter formations of Conqueror Kang, Umbrella's fleet is not technologically superior.

However, the battlefield is in the quantum realm, which the enemy is not yet fully familiar with, and Conqueror Kang has not adapted to the physical rules of the quantum realm. This has been verified by Dane himself.

If Kang the Conqueror had fully understood the laws of the quantum realm, his Kang Legion would not have been so easily annihilated at his hands.

The technological gap between the enemy and us objectively exists, but it is not so large that it is insurmountable. It's just that Kang has established a basic industrial system in the area under his rule, and his ability to produce troops is far superior to Umbrella.

Therefore, this battle cannot be a protracted one, it must be resolved quickly.

Just like in "Ant-Man 3", Kang, the Conqueror who has basically ruled the quantum world, had his base broken through by the Ant-Man family and only a few thousand rebels, and in the end he had to rely on himself to clean up the situation.

From this we can see that the limitations of the quantum world on future technology still exist objectively, and it limits Kang's ability to make greater progress in future technology.

Dane believes that there is no reason why he cannot do what the Ant-Man family can do.

Although he does not have the superior intelligence of the ant army, the power of Astartes is equally unstoppable.

Chapter 982: Uneconomical Exchange

Quantum Realm, Resistance Base.

The rebel members who had just received Dane's order had not yet recovered from his sudden disappearance, and in the blink of an eye they saw the other party reappear in front of them.

No, what's wrong?

The member wiped his eyes and continued watching.

Janet is missing!

The remaining member was about to speak when suddenly a strong sense of awe forced him to shut his mouth and he could only lower his head obediently.

Dane glanced at the timestamp and found that it was less than a second before and after he left. This proved that his research in the real world was correct. As long as he didn't deliberately want to go back to the past, he could freely choose the time to enter and exit here.

After returning to the quantum world, Fastos' manufacturing ability was weakened again. He could only make small gadgets, but he could no longer directly build a large quantum shuttle like in the real world.

Fortunately, the manufacture of the shuttle is not complicated, and the design drawings are ready-made. Even if it is handed over to the rebels, they can be built, it just takes time.

Dane waved his hand, and the entire laboratory disintegrated instantly, leaving only the quantum shuttle that he and Janet had used before.

Then, rays of light flashed from it one after another, and finally turned into steel giants over two meters tall. Soon, the surrounding area was filled with Astartes.

The shuttle 500 was too small to allow real-world warships to pass through, so Dane chose to teleport the smaller target first.

But after teleporting about a hundred people, the quantum shuttle was overloaded and could no longer work.

Dane asked the rebels to leave with the shuttle's design drawings and go to a new location to build a larger quantum shuttle to prepare for the subsequent large-scale military passage.

The transfer of the entire resistance army took less than half a day. Unlike Janet who worked hard to balance the relationship, in pursuit of efficiency, Dane chose to directly control the minds of all the resistance army members, so the efficiency was very high.

The new base he moved the rebels to was the world he had first arrived in when he came to the quantum realm. That place looked like a huge enclosed rock formation and was very hidden.

As for himself, he took the initiative to attack with about a hundred Astartes to disrupt the sight of Kang's Legion.

Soon, Kang received some not-so-good news.

Part of the Kang Legion he sent out completely lost contact, just like the air force that was destroyed before.

Judging from the information recorded in the black box, Kang's army seems to have encountered a new opponent this time.

Unlike the ragtag group of rebels, this time the opponent is a fairly powerful army. The average height of these soldiers is over two meters and three, and they wear standard power armor.

Kang's army's mechanical servants also wore power armor, but in terms of strength, they were no match for the enemy.

Kang could see from the video recorded in the black box that the energy weapons and plasma cannons he prepared for the mechanical servants could not penetrate the enemy's armor at all.

The enemy didn't even need to use their weapons; just a charge was enough to smash Kang's army into pieces.

He had tried to take action himself, wanting to capture an enemy and study their powers.

But the other party seemed to know his plan. Every time he took action, the other party seemed to have learned the news in advance, making him return empty-handed.

However, the opponent had more points of attack. A small team of only five people was able to directly destroy the hundreds of people he sent out, and Kang's army was fooled.

Forced into a corner, Kang's army had no choice but to adopt a more radical strategy.

When they discovered the enemy, they no longer chose to send mechanical servants to engage in battle, but instead sent air forces to carry out indiscriminate bombing on wherever the enemy was.

However, this tactic was not enough to reduce the enemy's numbers; at most it would force them to abandon their current battlefield.

After calculations, Kang discovered that the number of these powerful soldiers was actually not large, only about a hundred at most, but their individual combat effectiveness was very strong.

From the perspective of individual combat power, although it cannot be compared with Kang who is equipped with high-tech armor, it is far stronger than the army under his command. It is not a problem for one enemy combat unit to fight against a hundred mechanical servants.

The enemy was more flexible and intelligent in coordinated operations than his Kang Legion.

Kang also discovered that the enemy's actions were likely to be concealed. They seemed to be taking the initiative to attack and cover up the address and whereabouts of the rebel base.

But it was useless for him to know that. When he personally led his team to the rebel base, he found that it was already deserted. It was obvious that the enemy had already moved their position.

No one knew the location of the new base. No matter how Kang killed, he only got information about the old base from those quantum residents.

The other party has most likely completely given up contact with the outside world and truly isolated himself from the world.

This left Kang helpless, and he could only play hide-and-seek with the Astartes according to the enemy's rules.

Dane doesn't care about the lives of the residents of the quantum world, so Kang's plan to use innocent people to force him to submit was blocked from the beginning.

As time passed, Kang gradually discovered that although the number of enemies was still small, they had already taken the initiative on the battlefield.
