Time travel. Oaks originally thought that with all the preparations he had made, he wouldn't need it anymore.
But for the sake of 'The Book of Vishanti,' it's worth the trip.
Oaks also understood why she told him about 'The Book of Vishanti.'
As they say, "Out of sight, out of mind." If Ancient One is "dead," what will happen to the relationship between Oaks, the master of nature magic, and Kamar-Taj?
Doctor Strange's arrogant personality was hard for ordinary people to tolerate, especially since he had previously asked Oaks for help and was brushed off.
Even if Strange already knew that that was a special situation, which allowed him to learn magic and become the Sorcerer Supreme, it was still somewhat awkward.
Wouldn't the Ancient One want to take care of her successor?
With the cooperation in searching for 'The Book of Vishanti,' Oaks and the newly appointed Sorcerer Supreme could quickly establish a comradery. Moreover, with the support of Oaks, an old friend of Kamar-Taj, Doctor Strange could gain the approval of the other sorcerers and firmly hold the position of the Sorcerer Supreme.
However, Oaks clearly didn't want to get involved with Kamar-Taj, and Ancient One didn't insist.
After all, she is still alive.
In the most advanced quantum physics laboratory of Oaktree Environmental Technology Company, Oaks found Dr. Pym.
Thanks to the support of the Avengers, Dr. Pym's research in the field of quantum was going smoothly.
This high-end laboratory possessed the most advanced equipment in the world, far more reliable than the makeshift lab he had set up with various materials he managed to find.
He created a groundbreaking "quantum tunnel" to explore and verify the chaotic rules of time and space in the quantum realm, in order to find his wife and study the mysteries of the quantum field.
With the help of this quantum tunnel, Dr. Pym even succeeded in building a shuttle capable of traversing the quantum realm.
With Dr. Banner's assistance, they collected a vast amount of data from the quantum realm and made significant progress:
The theoretical model of a biological quantum computer was becoming mature!
Although Pym didn't like Tony Stark, he had to admit that, technically speaking, Howard's son had far surpassed his father. He also had a much more likable personality than Howard.
Under Dr. Banner's coordination, Dr. Pym and Tony managed to coexist peacefully. That was why Pym chose to work at Oaktree Environmental Technology Company instead of the Avengers' base.
The reason he didn't conduct research on the quantum realm in Avalon was that he needed to attempt to locate his wife, Janet, on the Earth where she disappeared.
But he had no idea how to find someone who had been lost for thirty years in the vast microscopic world.
Until... during one of their quantum tunnel experiments, Scott called him.
After officially joining the Avengers as Ant-Man and Wasp, Scott spent most of his time on missions, while Hope helped her father, Dr. Pym, with research.
During Scott's last adventure into the quantum realm and subsequent return, he became quantumly entangled with Janet, who was trapped in the quantum realm. Through this quantum entanglement, Janet successfully "manifested" herself in Scott, and then the whole family worked together to pinpoint Janet's coordinates in the quantum realm.
With the powerful technological and security support of Oaktree Environmental Technology Company, Dr. Pym effortlessly entered the quantum realm and brought back his wife, Janet, the original Wasp.
So now, the quantum mechanics master at Oaktree Environmental Technology Company had one more member in the family.
The reunited Pym family began to devote all their efforts to perfecting the "Life Sanctuary" project and the biological quantum computer.
Among them, the peculiar energy particles brought by Janet from the quantum realm played a significant role in the research.
When Oaks found the Pym family, they were further calculating the communication rules of the quantum realm to design a new quantum communication device.
"The time dilation issue in the quantum realm?"
Dr. Pym was taken aback when he heard Oaks' question. Although he didn't know why Oaks was asking this, he had become more amiable than before after finding his wife:
"Yes, the time dilation in the quantum realm is different from the real world.
After Janet returned, we went in a few times, and each time, the time inside and outside were different...
The time flow in the quantum realm can be sometimes faster, sometimes slower, and sometimes even synchronized.
In other words, time operates differently in the quantum realm.
Our research is precisely about calibrating these rules to enable real-time communication between the quantum realm and the real world."
"That's great."
Oaks nodded with a smile, then approached Dr. Pym and whispered:
"Doctor, what if we have a way to locate within it and find a way to control these chaotic time rules? What if we can enter the quantum realm at a specific time point and leave at another specific time point...?"
"..."
Dr. Pym widened his eyes.
"Time travel?"
In an instant, he understood Oaks' idea—using the temporal characteristics of the quantum realm to "punch holes" in the timeline of the real world, achieving precise time travel within the timeline.
"This is too crazy... Why would you think of such a thing?"
Dr. Pym didn't immediately deny it because he knew that although the idea was insane, it was...
Indeed possible!
"Dr. Pym, as you should know, my ability is magic, and it's like... being a wizard?"
Oaks spread his hands, and Dr. Pym subconsciously nodded:
"Magic is indeed a fascinating thing, but you've also said that magic is currently an incomprehensible technology."
"Yes, but there is magic that can manipulate time to a certain extent, Dr. Pym."
Oaks shrugged his shoulders.
"Do you know? Just recently, our world faced a catastrophe—a catastrophe in the realm of magic."
He informed Pym about the events involving Dormammu and the invasion of dimensions, causing Pym to gulp involuntarily.
As a top scientist who had personally been to Avalon and worked with Dr. Banner, Pym was well aware of the renowned name of Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme.
Moreover, he wasn't the type of rigid person whose beliefs were unshakable, scoffing at magic.
He had already been to alternate dimensions and the quantum realm. What was impossible?
Now, with the Earth's most powerful sorcerer fallen and they need to rely on the new Sorcerer Supreme's "Time Prison" as a means of defense against beings like dimensional lords...
"The Earth's magical community urgently needs powerful artifacts to guard against interdimensional invasions. Although the Sorcerer Supreme has fallen, she left behind news of a powerful artifact."
Oaks felt relieved when he saw that Pym quickly understood his meaning.
Speaking of which, Pym was previously known for his bad temper and stubbornness, but his genius was unquestionable.
At his age, being so receptive was extremely rare.
"So, has that powerful artifact disappeared? Do you want to retrieve it from the past?"
Pym instinctively patted his chest, feeling his heart racing.
"That's right..."
Oaks explained why he didn't want to involve the new Sorcerer Supreme in time travel to Pym, and the latter's expression became peculiar.
Stephen Strange, a renowned figure in the medical field, was a name that Pym had heard before. He was aware of the arrogance of that self-centered individual.
"So, this guy became the Sorcerer Supreme... Humph! It was indeed unwise to let this arrogant and self-centered guy come into contact with a powerful artifact!"
Pym thought of a medical experience he had at his old age, and his expression darkened.
That guy, Stephen, had actually refused to accept his surgery, claiming that it lacked a challenge!
That was simply unreasonable!
He merely wanted to find the best doctor to perform his surgery, even if it was a minor one!
After all, he was the great Hank Pym!
Was it wrong for him to be cautious at his age?
That idiotic narcissist had actually gained control over the manipulation of time...
"But with the help of powerful tools, my scientific technology can achieve the same!"
Oaks inexplicably watched as Pym suddenly ignited with enthusiasm. He scratched his head.
"Um... Although I'm not in such a hurry, I'll leave this matter to you, Dr. Pym.
However, Ancient One once warned that manipulating time could create temporal branches, resulting in the creation of parallel universes...
We must avoid this problem; otherwise, time travel will bring severe consequences!"
"Yes, this is indeed a problem that needs to be solved."
Pym pondered for a moment, furrowing his brow.
"We must ensure that the timeline we travel back to is the same as the one we are currently in. This... requires extremely accurate time flow positioning abilities.
However, time is different from space; time has one dimension, and its characteristic is linear, irreversible progression.
To accurately position within an irreversible time flow is almost impossible!"
Oaks saw that Pym seemed to be in a trance, continuously pacing in circles with his hands behind his back, muttering incessantly. It gave him a headache.
He only remembered something about a "Mobius strip," but who knows what other technology Tony used in 2024 to determine the feasibility of this?
"We need the power of a team, Dr. Pym."
That was the only suggestion he could make:
"Perhaps Tony and Banner can help?"
"No!"
Pym's stubbornness arose. Seek help from others in his own area of expertise? What a joke!
Although Banner was a top scientist, quantum physics was not his strong suit.
And Tony Stark...
Well, he was indeed a genius, but...
"Dr. Pym, although I believe you will come up with a solution, time waits for no one. We haven't yet determined the time rules of the quantum realm, and this research project is your responsibility."
Oaks solemnly praised Pym:
"Without grasping these rules, any ideas would be ineffective—let others handle this. Dr. Pym, you should focus on more fundamental and important matters."
"...You're right, that should be the current priority!"
Pym blinked his eyes, his gaze drifting. He coughed lightly and a faint smile formed on his lips.
"Well, then I must get to work quickly. Before I understand the time rules of the quantum realm, I hope the 'others' can complete the theory of time travel in time."
"Then I'll leave it to you!"
Oaks watched as Pym stumbled back to the laboratory and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hello? Tony, there's an interesting project. Are you interested?"
