Chapter 80: The Ginger is the Spiciest

After a life-and-death battle, as the host of this place, the Daredevil obviously couldn't just pat his butt and walk away.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, he still organized manpower to do some cleanup work.

There was something even more important than the cleanup, which was he needed to wash off the bloodstains covering his head and face, otherwise, in his current state, he was in no shape to meet anyone.

After this battle, Bullseye's head had bloomed, to say he was dead was an understatement.

As for Kingpin, the damage Clark had caused him had already exceeded what Earth's medical science could heal, especially with the final 150-meter high free fall.

Although Clark hadn't seen his body with his own eyes, under such circumstances, it would be a miracle if the cleanup crew could find a whole bone, let alone any chance of him miraculously surviving.

After everything was handled, Matthew called for a new driver, taking the three of them to Hank Pym's laboratory.

The laboratory building was located across the street from Hank Pym's residence, which was also the street where Clark had once lived. It was a majestic square high-rise, and it was unclear whether it was the portable suitcase featured in "Ant-Man 2."

As soon as they entered the laboratory building, our Daredevil was stopped by the security: "Good day, Mr. Matthew, Mr. Pym would like to see Mr. Clark and little Mindy alone, he asks you to wait at Mr. Pym's house next door."

Daredevil was stunned at first, then shrugged at Clark and turned towards the villa.

Clark, however, had a faint smile on his lips, softly cursed "old fox," and followed the security with Mindy towards the interior of the laboratory.

Taking the elevator all the way to the top floor, Clark finally saw Hank Pym after a long time.

The old man's hair had turned whiter than it was nine years ago, and his face had more wrinkles, no longer the handsome and dashing look of his younger years, but his spirit was still vigorous, giving off a strong and energetic vibe.

Seeing Clark, Hank Pym immediately greeted him with a beaming smile: "Clark, you've finally come back!" He said, pointing towards several chairs near the wall, "Come, let's sit down and talk."

Mindy moved to go over, but was held back by Clark.

After stopping Mindy, Clark looked at Hank Pym with a challenging smile and asked, "Are you doubting our identities?"

"Oh?" Hank Pym laughed lightly and asked back, "Why would you think that?"

"Because that chair is literally a trap!" Clark said, flicking his finger, and a highly condensed qi shot out, directly piercing through one of the chair's armrests, also triggering the mechanism on it.

"Click! Click! Click!..."

Several semi-circular steel rings popped out, turning a perfectly good chair into a bizarrely shaped cage, quite reminiscent of something out of a sci-fi movie.

Seeing this, Hank Pym's smile finally faded.

Then, Clark pointed towards another piece of electronic equipment: "There, it looks like the control center for all the laboratory data, but it's actually a huge trap. I can't be sure what the trap is exactly, but I felt the fluctuation of Pym particles."

"You can actually detect the fluctuation of Pym particles?" Hank Pym's expression became unnatural, his face changing before he finally spoke: "You've been gone for nine years, and now suddenly reappear, I can't help but doubt your identities."

"So you plan to subdue us first and ask questions later?"

Clark smiled slightly, then pointed towards a wooden box at the edge of the laboratory: "There, I heard human breathing, and in the entire laboratory, that spot gave me the strongest sense of danger. If I'm not wrong, Brother Yi Long has been lying in wait for a long time, hasn't he?"

As Clark's words fell, the wooden box was pushed open from the inside, and Yi Long, with a wry smile, looked excitedly at Clark, then turned to Hank Pym and said, "I told you, sir, you were worrying too much. This person is definitely Brother Clark, there's no mistake."

"No mistake?" Hank Pym shook his head lightly: "Just because he could see through my traps?"

Taking a deep breath, Hank Pym no longer hid his hostility and coldly said to Clark, "In fact, if it were Clark from nine years ago, he definitely couldn't have easily seen through my many arrangements. So, if you want me to believe, at least you need to provide a convincing reason."

Need evidence, huh?

Although Clark was annoyed, he understood that this was necessary caution, and Hank Pym's actions were not unjustified.

After all, in the Marvel world, there are too many ways to disguise oneself.

Clark glanced at Yi Long, then turned back to Hank Pym, their eyes meeting, he extended five fingers with a teasing smile: "This secret, should only be known by the two of us, right?"

Seeing this, Hank Pym knew what the five fingers represented.

He looked at Yi Long before saying this, which means what Clark's five fingers pointed to was definitely not about some gang, but the five million dollars for incense money he had given to Yi Long for unresolved worldly affairs.

Then, Clark snapped his fingers, and immediately the sound of a mantra echoed in the laboratory. Under the sound of the "Qingxin Mantra," both Hank Pym and Yi Long felt an unprecedented sense of calm in their hearts.

It was not until then that Hank Pym showed an undisguised smile, quickly walked up to Clark, and gave him a bear hug: "You little rascal, you're really okay!"

Feeling Hank Pym's arms trembling with excitement around him, Clark's heart also warmed.

Minutes later, when Hank Pym let go, Clark rolled his eyes and said, "I was planning to save my first hug after returning for Hope or Xiao Bai, but you, old man, took advantage."

After the half-joking tease, Clark once again showed a teasing smile: "Now, can you tell me what the ultimate weapon in this laboratory is?"

After confirming Clark's identity, Hank Pym no longer had any secrets, proudly saying, "It's the Pym Particle Ray Net."

Fearing Clark might not understand, he added, "I've arranged a hundred hidden Pym Particle enhanced emitters here, which can instantly lock onto and shrink an intruder, and if needed, can even send the intruder into the subatomic level, into the Quantum Realm."

From the moment he entered the laboratory, Clark had felt a huge crisis hidden within, never expecting Hank Pym would apply Pym particle technology directly to weaponry.

Such a move was indeed ruthless!

But it also matched his character. How could he rely solely on Yi Long for his safety?

Seeing Clark's intentionally disdainful look, Hank Pym nonchalantly pointed to a wall in the laboratory and said, "There is the staircase to the top floor, the real laboratory is actually above."

"Matthew said your strength has surged since you came back, I'm curious to what extent you've reached now. Come, let me test your data."
