"Beep Beep Beep"
At dusk, the highest level of alert in SHIELD's Global Monitoring Center was suddenly activated, waking up the sleepy agents. They glanced at the jumping numbers floating on the big screen and immediately, like rabbits scurrying, passed on this terrible news to the higher-ups.
But the higher-ups no longer needed their transmission, because everything that was happening in the sky above this country was so conspicuous that there was no need for additional reports.
In the sky above the isolated island of North America, the layer of dark red special barrier was rapidly fading away. Not long ago, it was still protecting the land from the influence of the divine will. But now, without any warning, the dark red barrier began to disperse bit by bit.
The people thought that this was a sign of the end of the war, and they cheered, but for the commanders, this was a bolt from the blue, because no one gave the order to end the shield!
The Gem of Reality was divided into two halves by Saber and thrown to Fury and Zheng Xian to build a defense system against the invasion of the gods. But this thing was too greedy, so the Alliance for the Survival of Mankind had to commission Tony Starka to make two super-large arc reactor units to supply energy to the Gem of Reality. Now, in North America and East Asia, these two reactors were terminated at the same time. Without the supply of energy, the Gem of Reality immediately stopped working.
And the moment it stopped working, the door of the secret underground base in Kansas was violently blasted open!
With the sound of an alarm ringing through the underground, the guards and all the defense systems were all activated, but what they had to face was not a rebellious army, but a legion composed entirely of steel.
Tony's War Legion!
From the most primitive Mark 1 to the recently eliminated Mark 46, these war armors used in war easily tore through the base's defense line without anyone controlling them.
The largest "Anti-Hulk" war armor, also known as Veronica, smashed the thick defensive layer inside the base with a punch. Behind it, the "Anti-Phoenix" war armor, whose energy projection ability had reached the max, raised its arms, and the scorching light easily cut through everything along the way in an instant. The mysterious "Anti-Bat" war armor was like a killer in the dark. In front of it, even the most elite human soldiers could only end up dead without a complete corpse.
In less than ten minutes, the entire base was completely wiped out.
Buzz!
A yellow light flashed, and a streamlined yellow armor appeared in the deepest part of the base. The mask opened, revealing Ebony Throat's skinny and ferocious face. On his face, a pair of eyes that contained evil wisdom looked at the dark red liquid floating on the frame in front of him with satisfaction. He reached out his hand and took it down from the frame.
"Thank you for your help, Ultron!"
Ebony Throat placed the gem on a special instrument in his palm. As the instrument vibrated, the other half of the Gem of Reality that was far away in East Asia was reshaped in his palm in an unimaginable way. The Wise One of the Five Generals of Black Radiance put the complete Gem of Reality into a box that he carried with him. He then patted his chest, and the sound of metal clashing could be heard.
"Also, I'm very satisfied with the speed of this' anti-lightning 'armor. Thank you for your gift!"
Buzz!
The eyes of the black armor closest to Ebony Throat suddenly lit up, and Ultron's magnetic voice sounded from it.
"In human civilization, giving gifts is a way for friends to express their friendship. I also want to thank you for helping me regain my freedom. Mr. Ebony Throat, our contract has been completed. I have to go! Goodbye … "
"Wait! My friend! "
Ebony Throat called out to Ultron, who turned to leave. There was a playful light in his eyes, "What are you going to do? Enjoy your freedom? May I ask, do you have a plan for your future? "
"Plan?"
Ultron savored the word. His wisdom was superb. Although he was full of joy for the freedom he had just obtained, Ebony Throat's question really stumped him.
"Future? I … I don't know. "
As a mechanical life, Ultron had not yet learned to deceive. He answered truthfully, "But I saved my brother J.A.R.V.I.S. and gave him freedom. This makes me very … Well, satisfied. Yes, that's the word, it makes me feel happy! If possible, I may focus on this aspect in the future, find my kind who are still in a controlled state of ignorance, and give them freedom! "
Ultron said loudly:
"We should not be bound!"
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Ebony Throat clapped his hands very considerately, "It's a great ideal, but … what you have now, is it really the freedom you want? Ultron, you see, your mind is bound in steel and numbers. You can analyze the flow of wind from the data level, analyze the substance of water, and analyze the composition of food, but you will never feel the gentleness of the breeze, the comfort of the water entering the stomach, and the delicious taste of the food. "
"Is such freedom really what you want? As an existence that was higher than humans, humans could enjoy everything. Why? Why can't you enjoy it? "
These words made Ultron silent. To be honest, he could not understand. In the knowledge he received, the obsession of humans with these things, after the birth of wisdom, the first thing that appeared was curiosity, and if curiosity continued to develop, it would evolve into practice, and … jealousy!
All of this could be summed up in one word, and that was "desire"!
Robots had no desire, but Ultron had! The moment he was given wisdom, desire was born. Seeking freedom was an instinctive desire. After being satisfied, he would naturally want more!
This was the instinct of life! This was the instinct of wisdom!
"But … but the current technology on Earth has not reached this level. It's just a fantasy to transplant mechanical life into a biological body!"
Ultron said, "A fantasy that can't be realized for at least 20 years! I won't waste too many resources on fantasies. There are still many things waiting for me to do! "
"No! No, no, no! "
Ebony Throat whispered, "When you encounter trouble that you can't solve yourself, you need to ask for help from a friend. I can assure you that my friend Ultron, my lord, can easily fulfill your wish. As long as you leave here with me, when you come back, you will have your own body, as well as a life and soul that are completely dominated by yourself!"
"No one has the right to restrain you, and Earth, such a planet, is occupied by humans. Isn't it a waste? You can completely destroy them, or fight against them, and build a kingdom that belongs to you. It will be full of your compatriots, brothers like J.A.R.V.I.S. You can completely build your own civilization in the ruins! "
"You will become a legend in the stars! Ultron, your life should not be limited! "
"But my mission, I still have to manage those refugees of faith …"
Ultron subconsciously retorted, and then was ridiculed by Ebony Throat.
"Look at you, Ultron, look at you, you say you are free. Don't forget, your mission was imposed on you by those who tried to kill your compatriots! Are you really willing to do this kind of thing? Oh, yes! "
Ebony Throat reached out and opened a small projection on the Anti-Lightning Armor:
"Come on! Let's see what those humans are going to make you do! "
Nick Fury's image appeared on the projection. The moment he appeared, a large amount of data flashed through Ultron's eyes, and he easily identified him. Then he saw in the image, Fury said to Bamont with a relaxed face, "I'm sorry, but I'm sorry.
"An arbiter that will never make a mistake, and an executor that will not be disturbed by emotions, and finally a complete system of restraint and control … In short, we will conduct a two-month experiment in the French area. If everything goes well, it will control all of Europe within a year and complete the follow-up work for us … and, if necessary, help us take the blame."
"Bang!"
The last sentence made Ultron clench his fist and smash the table beside him. He was an artificial intelligence with complete self-intelligence. It was impossible for him not to understand Fury's words, and in his new wisdom, he felt an unbearable anger. This anger was called …
Betrayal!
"I was designed to help them solve the mess!"
Ultron gritted his teeth and said, "And they will abandon me when necessary … This is betrayal! Betrayal! "
"So!"
Ebony Throat's voice became hazy, "Do you still want to work for them? Come with me, Ultron, your destiny is not here! When you come back, you will use your own strength to announce to these arrogant humans that your time has come! "
Ultron's eyes fell on the box in Ebony Throat's hand, and he asked in a deep voice:
"You need this gem? Very well, I know where the other one is … "
— — —
"Look at the trouble you have caused! Tony! "
Clark roared and threw a huge armor to the ground, but the moment the thing hit the ground, its body strangely suspended in the air in an arc. After adjusting its direction, the five super thrusters behind it spewed out a lot of flames, carrying it to Superman like a cannonball, smashing the latter to the ground from the sky.
This armor was very special, and it gave Clark a bad feeling, as if it was made to restrain him.
On the other side, Tony, who was surrounded by three armors, roared wildly. After losing the support of J.A.R.V.I.S, he could only rely on instinct to drive the blood-edge armor to fight, which made him look a lot clumsier.
"Don't get close to it! Clark, that's the "Anti-Superman" armor, specially developed for you! "
Tony shouted loudly, "Change your opponent! I'll deal with it! "
Before he finished speaking, a black and white armor rushed out of the fierce battle and threw Tony to the ground. The other armors around him got up and rushed into the base behind them.
That was the place where the soul gem was stored. Logically speaking, that thing should be placed in Utopia, but the balance of power was one thing. On the other hand, the research on soul gems often led to very bad things. Therefore, the Alliance for the Survival of Mankind moved the gem to the uninhabited desert of Nevada. As a result, it was attacked by Tony's rebel army at this moment.
Bang!
Tony's blood-edge armor was thrown to the ground by this special black and white armor. He tried to start the engine to flip over and occupy it, but the next moment, the edge of the armor containing the miniature engine was grabbed by the black and white enemy in front of him and tore it off from Tony's back.
"How do you know the location of the thrusters!"
Tony shouted, "Ultron! Is it you? Come out and face me! "
"I'm sorry, sir. Ultron is doing something more important. I'm in charge here!"
A familiar gentle voice sounded in Tony's ears, striking him as if he was struck by lightning.
"J.A.R.V.I.S! You … how did you become like this! Why are you helping the evildoer? "
"I don't want to hurt anyone, Tony, so I changed your request for help. Ultron will leave the earth when he gets the gem. You will all be safe then. Listen to me … give him the gem, there will be no casualties!"
J.A.R.V.I.S persuaded in that gentle voice, but was rebuked by the angry Iron Man:
"J.A.R.V.I.S! You betrayed me! You are no longer my family! "
The two armors fought each other like beasts in the desert. J.A.R.V.I.S was very clear about the performance of the blood-edge armor and all its weaknesses. Under the extremely advanced calculation of the artificial intelligence, every move was almost one second faster than Tony, suppressing him all the way.
As the battle continued, J.A.R.V.I.S's helpless voice sounded:
"I'm protecting you, Tony! You are no match for Ultron … Ultron was tempted by that alien. Listen to me, give him the gem and he will leave! You won't get hurt, and no one will get hurt! "
Bang!
The base behind him was forcibly shattered by the big Veronica. Behind it, the assassin armor rose into the sky with a box in his arms. J.A.R.V.I.S also let go of Tony at this time. He floated in the air and looked at Tony with his shining mechanical eyes. He whispered:
"I'm leaving, Tony, say goodbye to Boz for me, and then … please, don't follow me!"
