Scott Lang had a gloomy expression on his face.
Natasha consoled him, "Don't think like that, Scott. In fact, Cap, Tony, and many others have had similar experiences. Your little mishap is nothing compared to what they've been through. Besides, people will be more focused on Tony and Doctor Banner."
Scott Lang looked at her quietly and said, "I feel like you're saying I'm not embarrassing enough for the Earth, am I?"
Natasha chuckled and quickly changed the subject, "No, no... Let's continue watching the video."
In the video, after this failed experiment, Captain America shook his head in frustration and went outside for some fresh air, just in time to see a familiar car approaching.
Tony Stark, had come to the rescue. He looked at Captain America's gloomy expression and asked, "Why this gloomy face? Let me guess, Did someone turn into a baby? Or something else?"
Natasha shook her head and said, "Tony's mouth is as sharp as his mind. It's annoying."
In the video, Captain America asked Tony, "Why are you here?"
Tony Stark got out of the car, casually explaining, "This is the EPR paradox. Scott didn't travel through time; time travelled through Scott. It's complicated and dangerous. Someone should have warned you about this."
Steve Rogers nodded and said, "You did warn us."
"Did I?" Tony Stark, never one to admit defeat, replied, "Anyway, I've got it all sorted out. Look, this is a fully functional time-space travel GPS."
He showed the wristband he was wearing to Steve Rogers.
Outside the video, Scott Lang sighed and said, "He's the real pro. He handled such a complicated problem all by himself!"
Natasha nodded, "As I said, when it comes to tech-related issues, Tony is the most professional among us."
Steve Rogers stared at the screen and raised an eyebrow, "Have you guys noticed... Tony's wristband, the time-space travel GPS device, looks a bit familiar. Doesn't it remind you of the Time Variance Authority's Time Twister?"
With his reminder, Natasha pondered, "In terms of design, it does resemble it a bit. Steve, do you think Tony's tech could be a key component for the future formation of the Time Variance Authority?"
"From what we know so far, it's a possibility, isn't it?" Steve Rogers shrugged. "Natasha, we shouldn't just focus on Thanos. The one behind the scenes at the Time Variance Authority is also a threat we must be aware of!"
Scott Lang nodded, "Exactly, a multiverse war sounds terrifying. Compared to that, what Thanos did was just within our own space-time universe."
"Anyway, we need to make good use of the opportunity provided by this quiz game. And we should broaden our perspective. Bruce was right; we shouldn't limit ourselves to our timeline. We should bring light and hope to other multiverse worlds!"
Captain America has always been good at boosting morale, and Scott Lang was highly convinced after hearing his words. Of course, they didn't forget to keep watching the video.
In the video, the camera switched to a scene of Thor, still with his beer belly, drinking and swaggering around. Tony Stark dragged a pipe past him, asking him not to block the way. In front of him stood a large device, clearly used for time-space travel.
It looked much more impressive than the quantum tunnel Dr. Hank Pym had built, but it was understandable. Hank Pym never imagined that his small quantum tunnel would be used for time travel.
In the video, others arrived as well. Scott Lang put on the latest suit for time travel, in pure white with the Avengers logo on the chest, looking quite cool.
Doctor Banner placed a red vial on his belt, a somewhat rough gesture that annoyed Scott Lang. He snatched the red vial and reminded them that these were Pym Particles.
Since Dr. Hank Pym disappeared, the supply of Pym Particles had become limited. They only had enough for each of them to travel back and forth through time once, plus two test runs.
During his explanation, Doctor Banner activated the device, wasting one of the test opportunities.
At this moment, Hawkeye, with a cool new hairstyle, joined them and volunteered to participate in the test. While waiting for the test, Colonel Rhodes asked a question: Since they could time-travel, why not go back to when Thanos was just a baby and eliminate him right then and there? Wouldn't that prevent the crisis of the universe from happening?
"Yeah, I was thinking the same thing just now!" Scott Lang raised his hand. "Why not just get rid of baby Thanos? It sounds simpler than collecting the Infinity Stones, doesn't it?"
Natasha gave him a sidelong glance. "This would involve some time paradox issues, but I don't know much about it."
Steve Rogers said, "Think about the Time Variance Authority. Going back in time doesn't necessarily mean changing the future. It's more like creating another parallel timeline. So even if you kill baby Thanos in that world, it has no effect on our world."
In the video, Doctor Banner also provided some information. In any case, Colonel Rhodes' proposal didn't hold up.
When Hawkeye was ready to end his test, they immediately began. The test was successful; Clint returned to the time just before Thanos snapped, not only safely but also bringing back an item from that time.
Then the scene shifted to a chaotic New York City, with four beams of light flashing. Steve Rogers, Tony Stark, Doctor Banner, and Scott Lang appeared one after another.
Time travel had succeeded; they had returned from the future to the past. The streets were in ruins, and alien ships and soldiers were roaming around.
This was the time point of the Battle of New York!
Thor raised an eyebrow when he saw them. "Four of you in a team? Tony, I think they must be here to protect you. Otherwise, with so many Infinity Stones to find, and limited manpower, they should have spread out more."
Tony Stark rolled his eyes. "Use your brains, Thor. There's not just one Infinity Stone on Earth. At this point in the Battle of New York, there might be multiple Infinity Stones simultaneously. So what's the problem with having more people on this time-travel journey?"
