Boom!

A violent explosion suddenly sounded from the alleyway that had long been deserted, and a beautiful figure with a high golden ponytail suddenly jumped out of the smoke.

"Hey, have you been waiting for a long time?"

After patting the dust on her body, Leni looked at the metal object standing alone at the door of the church from a long distance, with a playful smile on her lips.

Those eyes that sparkled with wisdom and cunning seemed to be able to discern all the secrets in the world.

"It seems that our 'Metal Gentleman' couldn't restrain his loneliness and came to greet my uninvited guest in advance."

There was a hint of ridicule in Leni's words, and she walked towards the metal creation with light steps.

"Lenny Stark."

Ultron slowly walked out of the shadow of the church with his still cold and mechanical voice.

"We meet again."

"Hmm, although it has only been a few hours, I think this must have been very torturous for you, right?"

Leni stepped into the open space where the church was located. The dust around her had gradually settled. At this moment, only the two of them were left in the huge open space, facing each other in front of this long-abandoned Catholic church.

"Oh, not seeing each other for one day is like three autumns?"

Ultron obviously knew the meaning of this idiom, but his cold metal face did not show any emotion.

"You seem to know me well and everything I want to do next."

"Oh? Where to start?"

Leni walked up to Ultron and stopped only when he was less than 5 meters away.

Ultron did not reply immediately, but raised his face and glanced at the space carrier above the sky. Just a few hours ago, it had suffered an unprecedented fall in the carrier. .

"You specifically sent that mothership to fly over in advance just to stop my plan, didn't you?"

Ultron turned sideways and gave way to the continuously running vibranium-cast anti-gravity core machine in the church behind him.

"Saving a city or saving a whole world, you greedily chose to take them all."

Ultron chuckled lightly and looked down at the woman in front of him who made him feel very afraid and extremely jealous from the bottom of his heart.

"You have the ability to predict the future. It seems that you have already seen the results after my birth..."

"Hey! Don't say that, I'm not that capable!"

Leni suddenly shouted and stopped Ultron's speech, as if she was afraid that some people or beings would misunderstand him because of his words, and tried her best to clarify that she did not have such mysterious abilities at all.

Just kidding, she knew very well that there really was such a thing as "god" in this world.

"I was just prepared in advance to deal with unexpected events, because in Arad, it is not uncommon for artificial intelligence life to go berserk."

Ultron stared into Leni's eyes, unable to tell whether what the other party said was true or false.

"But you still agreed to Tony Stark's plan to create me, even though you knew I would escape your control."

"I don't deny this."

Leni was secretly prepared in her heart, wary of Ultron suddenly making an attack.

"Why? Don't you claim to be the guardians of mankind?"

At this moment, Ultron not only does not have the superior feeling of the man in the sky who is fighting Tony and others, but he really looks like a student who is eager for wisdom and really wants to know the answer.

"Leni, I'm eager to understand your logic and the considerations behind your decisions.

Why push the process forward if you foresee the risks? Is it out of trust in human progress or persistence in some more profound goals? "

Leni didn't expect that Ultron would actually ask this, so she tilted her head and looked at the big man suspiciously.

"Really want to know?"

Ultron turned around and looked at Leni, his expression showing that he was indeed serious.

"Well, the reason is actually very simple, because you are not the enemy that mankind ultimately needs to face. On the contrary, I need your existence to build the unity and courage of the Avengers."

"oh?"

Ultron mused.

"Chitauri?"

It had seen Tony Stark's reasons for "protecting the world" stated by Leni and others before he created it. The biggest threat was the invasion of the Chitauri.

"Yes and no."

Leni made a riddle. She didn't want to inform the Avengers of their future enemies too early. Not only would this have no good effect, but it would easily cause them to fall into unnecessary panic and confusion.

"Then I understand, so in your opinion, what the earth needs is not me, but Vision, right?"

Ultron looked at the "Skybus" in the sky, where the work of in-depth transformation of its masterpiece was currently being carried out.

"Yep."

Leni simply admitted that, as Ultron said, Vision is her ultimate goal.

And Ultron is just a necessary process for her to achieve the final product of Vision.

Although this is very cruel to Ultron, it is necessary to achieve the goal.

"When did you realize this?"

Leni was very curious about this. The Ultron in front of her was really very different from the Ultron she knew, and even completely different from the Ultron in the sky.

It gave her the illusion that she was not communicating with the "real" Ultron at the moment.

No, maybe he is the real "Ultron"...

"Not long after you beheaded me."

Ultron consciously touched his neck made of alloy, as if there were still cut marks on it that were as smooth as a mirror.

"To be honest, I'm very curious about what kind of existence can actually make you, who possesses such sharp weapons, feel afraid.

So much so that you need to create a brand new existence - Vision, as your weapon to win that war. "

Leni was stunned for a moment when she heard this, but then she smiled again.

"Who knows, maybe I've just been deceived too much by others and I'm afraid of being cheated, so I always try to save something."

There was a bit of self-deprecation in her words, which sounded a little baffling to everyone in the communication channel.

Only one person quietly curled up the corners of his mouth at this moment, with a very subtle expression on his face.

"This stinky girl is scolding me in different ways."

Seeing that Leni didn't intend to explain, Ultron didn't ask any more questions and just sighed to himself.

That voice was mixed with a bit of dissatisfaction, but also a bit of unwillingness and sadness.

"Okay, I've finished what I wanted to talk about. Now, it's time to start my great work."

Putting aside these words lightly, Ultron no longer looked at Leni, but turned around and walked back into the church.

It's true that he was the wrong "guinea pig".

However, he also has his persistence.

Leni looked at Ultron's movements, but did not move, nor did she take action to restrain him. Instead, she just watched Ultron's body walk to stand in front of the core machine.

"Won't you stop me?"

Ultron suddenly asked in a deep voice without looking back.

After hearing this, Leni let out a soft breath and called Veronica's name through the communication channel.

Hearing that Leni finally planned to take action, Ultron raised his right hand and reached towards the top of the core machine.

boom!

Almost at the same time, a bright beam of light connecting heaven and earth poured down. The dazzling light was like the wrath of a god, instantly covering everything in the church with its unrivaled power.

Powerful energy like Asgard's Rainbow Bridge fell straight to the ground, and the huge energy shock wave spread ruthlessly from the impact point to the surroundings like a wild beast tide.

Dust, debris, and even air were swept into this destructive force, forming a chaotic storm.

Within the majestic and powerful light, Ultron's figure was almost instantly enveloped, and was crushed to the ground by the overwhelming force.

His mechanical arm, which was less than one centimeter away from the core machine, was pressed to death by this force on the stone platform made of masonry, and could no longer move an inch.

The blazing high temperature soaked through every inch of his body made of alloy. Even the strongest metal could not withstand this terrifying energy at this moment, which was like a punishment from heaven.

"Ah uh...this is, satellite ray..."

Ultron used the voice that only he could hear, and barely squeezed out these words from his almost melted throat.

Then, in the endless torrent of energy, the sound was completely lost, leaving only the faint whine of the electronic components under high temperature and pressure, and the silent cry of the electronic components that were finally overwhelmed and turned into molten steel.

Plop~

The vibranium creation that was silent in the cradle of rebirth suddenly made a clear pulse like a heartbeat for no reason.

Plop~

There was another sound, but neither he himself inside the cradle nor the humans outside the cradle who should have been paying attention to him at all times failed to notice this subtle but significant movement at this moment.

Whether it was Fitz, Simmons, Maya, or Helen Zhao, the attention of everyone in the Airbus cabin was attracted by the dazzling beam of light that penetrated the sky and the earth.

"That's...what?"

Helen Zhao murmured in disbelief. She had never seen such a spectacular and terrifying sight.

She could see clearly just now that the beam of light came from the sky, just like the divine punishment mentioned in the Bible, and hit the dilapidated church with incomparable precision.

"Satellite, ray..."

Maya Hansen swallowed hard and told the other party the origin of the beam in a trembling voice.

"That's the satellite laser weapon developed by Leni. It is mounted on the Veronica satellite. It is said to be used to resist the Hulk going crazy..."

"What a joke!"

Helen Zhao turned around suddenly, with the word "unbelievable" written all over her face.

"This is a space weapon! How could you allow her to create such a thing! Do you know what this kind of weapon means to those at the national level?

It is not only a symbol of the broken balance, but also a trigger that may trigger global turmoil! "

Helen Zhao's voice trembled slightly with excitement, Fitz and Simmons looked at each other, a trace of worry flashed in their eyes.

Even Maya Hansen, who was on the side, lowered her head at this moment. Even though she wanted to help Leni, the words she said felt a little weak even to herself.

"Its power is controllable, and as you can see, it won't cause any damage to the surrounding..."

"That's the scariest thing, okay!"

Helen Zhao interrupted Maya's words and pointed to the "Optimus Jade Pillar" which was still radiating a dazzling light and had not stopped for a long time, feeling a little hysterical.

"If this weapon has any restrictions or limitations, it would be fine. But now, do you think that if the leaders of those countries saw this scene, would they tolerate Leni and the Avengers to have such a weapon that is beyond the times and almost unsolvable?

What would they think? What would they do?

If it were you, would you allow a sword of Damocles that could fall at any time to hang high above your head so openly?"

Everyone in the cabin was silent, and everyone knew that Dr. Zhao Hailun's concerns were not groundless.

In fact, as early as when Leni began to design and manufacture this weapon, everyone had pointed out this problem in person, and Mr. Steve even had a quarrel with Leni about it.

But later, because Leni repeatedly assured that this weapon system could only be controlled by her alone, and even Tony Stark could not obtain the right to use it.

After considering the risk of Hulk losing control, everyone half-heartedly recognized her.

After that, Nick Fury, the previous director of SHIELD, did not intervene too much, and the few opposing voices in the Avengers team gradually subsided.

However, everyone acquiesced, which does not mean that the risk does not exist, or that this silent threat can be ignored by those national leaders.

It would have been fine if it had not been exposed before, but now that Lainie has used it openly, the situation that the Avengers will face in the future will probably become unprecedentedly complex and severe.

"Dr. Zhao Helen is right. For humans, your leaders will never tolerate this threat to continue to exist."

Suddenly, a familiar but unfamiliar voice came from the broadcasting system in the cabin to the ears of everyone present.

Fitz and others were stunned when they heard the words, and subconsciously looked at the device around them that made the sound.

"Jarvis?"

But the old friend did not reply at this moment, but fell silent, as if thinking about who Jarvis was and who he was.

Suddenly, Simmons seemed to have sensed something and looked at the regeneration cradle that was still in a closed state.

She approached with some disbelief, and pressed the button of the regeneration cradle with trembling arms.

With a slight humming sound, the originally silent metal shell slowly opened, and a soft golden light overflowed from it.

Then, under the incredible gaze of everyone, a silver and red humanoid object slowly sat up from the regeneration cradle.

With those eyes that were extremely similar to humans, with a calm and curious sight, he looked at all the familiar and unfamiliar things around him.

"I am not Jarvis."

His eyes met with Simmons who was close at hand, and there was a little confusion and thinking in his eyes.

"I am, myself--"

His eyes swept over everyone present, and his tone paused, as if he had finally confirmed his clone.

"I am Vision."
