Osborne Megacorp

"Your guess is correct, a total of three synths are missing."

The synthetic humans on Earth are now under the unified management of Stark Industries and are considered Stark employees. However, accepting Norman's dispatch is classified as business outsourcing. However, the benefits of this outsourcing job are much better. You can receive double wages and a Stark salary. Industrial hair, another Norman hair.

After Tony's investigation, it was found that the synthetic man was indeed missing.

This kind of thing is completely impossible to happen within the Osborn Group. If a synthesizer disappears, Oyce will find it immediately.

Even in the United States, which has introduced Osborne technology on a large scale, it is impossible to achieve this level. This is no longer a technical problem.

Ultron took advantage of his own advantages and secretly faked the illusion that the synthetics were alive. However, this disguise could not withstand investigation. Even if Tony did not take the initiative to investigate, A would soon discover that there was a reduction in labor.

According to the report, except for the first synthetic human who disappeared, the rest of the synthetic human disappearing places are basically in remote areas, but their jobs are mostly in the city center, and even the prediction algorithm cannot speculate on their motives for going to those places.

The place where the first synth disappeared was the place where Ultron first appeared and caused a commotion.

"This synthetic's name is Connor. He is a police synthetic. He was on duty on the street that day. Ultron probably took advantage of the chaos and kidnapped him."

At the place where the incident occurred, A used holographic technology to restore the situation that day.

Thanks to the powerful computing power of the ctOS system and AL, A can almost 100% restore the incident process.

Connor is an auxiliary police officer. On the day of the battle, his first order was to protect the safety of the people around him.

But when Ultron's tattered body was destroyed, the virus also spread to his semi-biological electronic brain. Like Oyce's situation, Ultron was unable to hack into his consciousness matrix, which aroused Ultron's idea.

Immediately afterwards, he was caught in a gunfight outside and was surrounded by a group of hacked police robots.

Connor's first mission is to protect mankind, which was quickly recognized and exploited by Ultron, causing Connor to be knocked unconscious and taken away.

But now, Connor should have been destroyed or dismantled with a high probability, and Connor's signal can no longer be found on the Internet.

"...The last two disappearances followed. The synthetics disappeared in remote areas outside the city. Even the Bellweather prediction system could not deduce their motives." A continued.

In other words, it has obvious characteristics of being “deceived”.

After being deceived, humans will do some seemingly incomprehensible things. The prediction system can predict human motivations by detecting network data, but it cannot detect the brain data of synthetic humans in real time.

It can be speculated that after dismantling Connor, Ultron found a way to hack, or "trick" synthetic humans, and this method is highly concealed. It is not spread through the Internet, but is based on a small transmitter. means of infection.

Since it is "cheating", it means that this kind of hacking may not be detected by synthetic humans.

Disruption is the first step. The next step is likely to be for Ultron to find a way to initially control the actions of the synths.

"We need to control all the synths - now, bring them all back to the factory for maintenance." Harry said suddenly.

"Recall under what name?" Tony asked.

Synths are also protected by law and cannot be returned to the factory like recalled products - this is a matter of procedure. Returning to the factory is equivalent to going to the hospital. Under normal circumstances, they do not have the right to force synths to return to the factory.

There are not many synths who will resist the recall, but there will always be a few. Moreover, synths are now an important labor force, and the impact of the recall is not small.

Moreover, procedural justice is an important concept in the Anglo-American legal system. As a law-abiding superhero, Tony cares about this very much.

But the so-called procedure... is not a big trouble for someone like Harry.

"Well...the Public Health Security and Electronic Virus Terrorism Threat Prevention and Control Act."

"I have to remind you, that's called the Bioterrorism Threat and Emergency Response Act - there's no electronic viruses or anything like that."

Harry glanced at Tony - a little imagination, okay?

Defining justice and procedure, isn't that what people like them should do?

"Then let them establish one now - this is a matter of life and death, there is no time to chatter."

Norman will definitely not object to Harry's move. Although Congress will consider this and that, in the final analysis, the Congress's work is based on efficiency: votes, activity funds, etc.

It just so happens that it is not difficult for the Osborne Group to satisfy the appetite of a small US Congress.

"I can sell them a few warships at a low price - they like this kind of thing that can be shown to voters."

"Battleship?" Tony was stunned for a moment, what's there to show off about that thing?It’s impossible to sell an aircraft carrier to the parliament, right?The Osborne Group doesn’t have an aircraft carrier?

"It's a space battleship - by the way, you haven't seen it yet. I'll take you up to have a look another day." With that said, Harry used the holographic projector to show off his private flagship.

Looking at the spaceship, Tony opened his mouth wide-space battleship?

It has been several months since the Star Base was completed, but as for the interstellar battleship, we are still discussing how to design it, such as what the battleship should look like and what weapons it should use. We still need to demonstrate it after the demonstration is completed, and funds will be approved only after the demonstration is completed.

A project of this level is much more complicated and involves many interests. No one can convince anyone unless we pull out a finished product now and stop everyone's mouths.

In other words, currently no country has its own interstellar naval warships.

However, the Osborne Group can sell them a few ready-made frigates and let them do publicity - just a few frigates.

Real votes are more attractive than money, and the Osborne group will definitely not let them go hungry. They will be happy to pass this law.

"Are you secretly building a space battleship behind my back?" Tony glared, "You don't trust me - Stark Industries has the best weapon design..."

"Stop, stop, stop, didn't you close the weapons manufacturing department yourself? What do you mean by carrying you behind your back? Don't you have a plan of your own for Stark Industries? I, the director, never asked a question!"

It's not that Harry doesn't believe that Tony can't come up with this thing, but didn't he close the weapons design department himself?

You can't stand it when co-authoring is involved in superhero affairs?Superhero weapons are not weapons?If the Mark Armor is not a weapon, just criticize the Hydra Senator, you don't believe it yourself, right?

Tony was speechless.

"Go to work." Harry crossed his hands and shook his head.

No positivity at all.

There are currently a total of 15 synthetics on the planet distributed in various industries, mostly in places such as fire departments, factories, and law enforcement agencies.

Recalling these synthetics all at once would have a big impact on society. Just as Harry thought, if the synthetics were willing, the humans might not be.

You must know that the production capacity of an automated factory is quite abnormal. The current high welfare policy in Detroit is largely based on these official factories.

However, the recall of 15 synths will not bring society to a halt. Moreover, Congress is quick to enact legislation, and the executive branch is even quicker to approve.

The Federation under Norman is not the loose organization it used to be.

Almost the day after the law came into effect, Norman signed the relevant decree. Although the mayor of Detroit had something to say, he was blocked by the decree and Osborne's money.

All 15 synthetic humans were recalled. In the originally empty Stark Industrial Park, each synthetic human stood straight on the spot. No measuring instruments were needed. The synthetic humans maintained the same distance from each other, forming a spectacular square array. ,like a statue.

A data collector is connected to the back of their heads, and they quietly receive the diagnosis.

Following the instructions and looking at their companions who looked different from themselves but acted almost exactly the same as themselves, some synthetics found that they actually felt a sense of fear towards the factory where they were born...
