Chapter 869 Roman Orthodoxy

As we all know, the triumphal ceremony of ancient Rome was a grand armed procession that showed off victory and achievements.

Usually, we start from across the Rubicon River, go all the way through the city gate and along the streets from the famous Plaza de Maltes, accept the cheers, praise and worship of all the citizens, and then climb to Jupiter on the top of Capitol Hill.

The end point is the Temple of Capitoline.

During this process, the general who was the protagonist of the triumphal ceremony and his troops would hold up flags and placards and show the Roman citizens the loot they had plundered from the enemy, including vehicles filled with property and tied up with ropes and shackles.

slave.

In addition, some captives will be killed in the temple as sacrifices to the gods.

As for the others, they will all be sold to manor owners, slave owners, and even gladiator academies.

In short, many generals in the ancient Roman Republic used triumphal ceremonies to expand their influence among the people, and then asked the Senate for greater power, or even became dictators.

Of course, the above specific descriptions of the triumphal ceremony mainly come from the records of the European Renaissance.

As for what the truth is and how many fabrications and falsehoods there are, only God knows.

After all, the true successor of the Roman Empire, the Eastern Roman Empire, or the Byzantine Empire, had been completely destroyed by the Ottoman Sultans in the fifteenth century.

Even the Slavs who only married a princess dared to call themselves the orthodox successors of Rome, and the Ottoman Sultan also gave himself the title of "Caesar of Rome".

As for those "filial sons and grandsons" in Europe and the United States, when it comes to their own historical origins, they must rely on ancient Rome.

Its political significance and cultural influence have long surpassed itself and become a tool used by Europeans and Americans to gather social consensus, people's hearts, and nations.

Of course, Grant Ward actually doesn't care at all about how "restoring history" this triumphal ceremony held by the city government of Rome, Italy is.

Right now, he has painted his face red in accordance with the so-called "tradition", is wearing clothes with palm leaves, and is standing on a golden chariot. Under the gaze of billions of people around the world, he is slowly moving from the oldest ancient Tibetan chariot.

Passing through the Arc de Triomphe, enjoying the deafening cheers from both sides of the street.

Especially when the flag symbolizing the People's Federation was raised high, countless young people with inexplicable enthusiasm for war also raised their signs in response.

The latter's brand clearly says "Veni, Vidi, Vici" in Latin.

Although in the beginning, these brands were only a handful.

But as they began to shout in unison, the surrounding spectators were quickly infected and joined in, and then the entire city of Rome reverberated with these words.

Because the first person to say it was very famous, it was the most famous Gaius Julius Caesar in ancient Rome.

It means "I come, I see, I conquer".

Since Italy has reached a terrible level in modern history and even in the more distant Middle Ages, Vodela has reached a terrible level, so nothing can awaken the pride and pride in the hearts of the residents of this city for its glorious past more than this sentence.

There is no way, the more a person lacks something, the more he desires it.

As the commander of the expeditionary fleet that won a glorious victory, Grant Ward just satisfied their desire for a strong military leader like Caesar.

Those uniform clone legions, the Astartes warriors wearing power mechas exuding an iron-blooded aura, and the huge battleships flying over from time to time completely pushed this grand triumphal ceremony to a climax.

Just when everyone thought that the entire procession would strictly follow the predetermined script, a "Jingluo" young man wearing a Roman Guards armor suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs: "Hey! Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief!"

Did you come back with the loot?"

moment!

Everyone around them turned their attention here.

After all, if there are no trophies in the triumphal ceremony, it would be like eating noodles without eating garlic, but missing the most important soul.

Especially when you reach the Temple of Jupiter Capitolinus on the top of Capitol Hill, you will have to kill prisoners to worship the god.

Many human beings who were previously incited by the media to be full of hostility and hatred towards aliens hope to witness the bloody scenes of the other party's top officials being captured and executed.

What, you said this is too barbaric and uncivilized?

If you look at what the armies and soldiers of so-called "civilized countries" do in modern wars, you will understand that when people are full of anger and hatred, the first thing they think of is always to vent through violence and sex.

Grant Ward smiled slightly, turned around and winked at his cronies.

The latter understood it and immediately revealed the true identity of a rectangular object covered with black cloth placed on a bullock cart.

The next second...

A group of aliens with similar human body structures but very different looks and sizes appeared within everyone's sight.

They didn't even wear clothes, they just stood naked in the cage, like orangutans or monkeys in the zoo.

Some women with a strong sense of shame even subconsciously covered their bodies with their hands and squatted down.

"This...is this a Moster?"

The "Jingluo" young man couldn't help but exclaimed in disbelief.

Due to the United Front propaganda of the Human League, the people on Earth are quite familiar with this enemy who once "helped" the Chitauri invaders.

There was a time when you could turn on the TV and see introductions about them, and sociologists would talk about how "cold", "cruel" and "evil" these guys were.

"Yes, they should be the Most people.

However, they are not ordinary Most people, but include members of the Supreme Ruling Parliament and commanders-in-chief of the army.

It was they who, along with the Chitauri, committed the unforgivable crime on Earth!

Countless of our fellow humans perished in that invasion, and thousands of families lost husbands, wives, and children.

When I became the commander of the expeditionary force fleet, I was thinking, if I can't seek justice for the families who have been harmed and avenge my dead compatriots, then what's the point of living?

I once thought about handing them over to the People's Federation and then going through judicial procedures to try them.

But then I thought again, if left to the law, how many of them would live the rest of their lives peacefully like the war criminals who escaped punishment after World War II.

No!

I will never allow this to happen!

Because in my opinion, the fairest thing in this world is tooth for tooth, eye for eye!

So today, I am not attending this triumphal ceremony as a human being, but as a human being, announcing to you in the name of the supreme leader of Hydra!

From now on, no alien force can stain its hands with the blood of earthlings and still leave safely!

No matter where the other party flees to the ends of the earth, we will find them and eliminate them one by one.

The humiliation of Loki being taken away by Asgard and helpless will never happen again!

Long live mankind!

Long live the earth!

Hail Hydra!”

As this impassioned speech came out, the whole street and even the city of Rome were boiling. Those who were watching the live broadcast on TV, mobile phones and computers could not help but stand up and follow Grant Ward and chant slogans like a madman.

.

That kind of unparalleled incitement and appeal directly strikes the depths of the soul of every person on earth.

After all, from the time Homo sapiens left Africa and began their expedition to eat all over the earth, humans have been the undisputed overlord of the planet.

Countless ancient creatures were eaten until the entire race was completely extinct during this great expedition.

Therefore, for humans, other species have long been unable to pose a fundamental threat to their own survival.

On the contrary, those of the same kind with malicious intentions are the most dangerous enemies and the enemies that need to be guarded against the most.

Therefore, long before the emergence of historical records, human beings began to fight tribes against their own kind, and the evolution of their civilization and weapons and equipment basically moved in this direction.

This means that humans can psychologically accept being killed by their own kind, but they cannot accept being eaten by other predators such as lions, tigers, wolves, etc.

In modern times, as long as a predator tastes the taste of human flesh, he will be hunted without mercy.

Because the dignity of the earth's overlord does not allow any other species to provoke.

However, this sense of superiority was completely overturned when facing aliens with powerful power and advanced weapons.

The once aloof overlord of the earth was like a lamb to the slaughter in front of the other party.

Even the United States, which claims to have the most powerful military power in the world, was beaten to the point where it was unable to fight back. When faced with Thor, the god of thunder who represented Asgard, it could only bow its head and give in.

With that huge psychological gap and sense of humiliation, anyone who still has some self-esteem will feel extremely painful and uncomfortable.

After all, this is an instant drop from the top of the food chain to the bottom.

But the victory of the expedition fleet finally allowed mankind to re-establish confidence, self-esteem and pride.

"Long live the earth! Long live mankind!"

"Hail Hydra!"

"Mr. Commander-in-Chief! You are our Caesar!"

"Let the weak politicians in the government and the People's League eat shit! We support you to become the lifelong dictator of all mankind! Please build a powerful human empire!"

"That's right! War! Conquest! We need more colonized planets! Drive all those damn aliens away!"

"You are the only hope to lead mankind to a better future!"

"What bullshit democracy! Votes! I've had enough of this for a long time!"

"Roman Orthodoxy in Hydra!"

"Make humanity great again!"



Accompanied by the sound of roaring mountains and tsunami, the situation in the entire city of Rome quickly became out of control.

Although many police officers tried to calm down the frenzied crowd by spraying water, it obviously had the opposite effect.

Millions of people from all over the world directly broke through the isolation cordoned by the police and rushed into the streets to join this unprecedented triumphal ceremony. Together with the ordinary soldiers of the Expeditionary Force and the Astartes warriors, they marched towards Ka'ar.

Heading to Pithole Peak.

Those who were closer picked up eggs, vegetables and stones and threw them at the aliens in the cage.

The city government of Rome, Italy, which originally only wanted to ride on the popularity to increase its international reputation and revitalize the tourism industry, is now completely numb.

Politicians and bureaucrats, including the mayor, also went into hiding.

They were afraid that these people who had already lost their minds and been incited would drag themselves into the temple of Jupiter Capitolinus to sacrifice.

Of course, some of the people at the top of the People's Federation were shocked by this.

Although some of them had expected that Grant Ward would take this opportunity to make a "big deal", they never expected that it would be as big as this.

Especially the fierce public opinion around the world is simply putting them on the fire.

If it is not handled well, large-scale riots or even military mutinies may occur internally.

Because Grant Ward has already outlined a beautiful future that all people on earth yearn for in just a few sentences of speech.

Many times, attracting the support of the people at the bottom does not require gorgeous rhetoric, nor does it need to explain boring policy programs and knowledge in the fields of politics, diplomacy, etc. It only needs to be able to shout a resonant and catchy slogan.

For example, someone said "Make America great again."

The result is that he is obviously a billionaire and supports tax cuts for the rich, but he has inexplicably gained the fanatical support of a large number of low-level industrial workers and rural farmers.

The latter actually truly believed that a liar who was from a different class than himself and was full of lies could fight for his own interests.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Its level of magic is not much worse than that of Latin America.

Of course, another reason is that they have no other choice. They can only try to make a last ditch effort like a losing gambler.

"It seems that we have all underestimated Grant Ward's ambition. He is obviously not willing to just be the leader of Hydra, but wants to be the leader of the entire earth."

A representative of the Supreme Council of the People's Federation slowly expressed his judgment.

"He wants to be a second Caesar?"

Another representative's voice clearly revealed strong concern.

After all, with the establishment of the People's Federation, the relatively backward organizational structure of the country will inevitably gradually disappear, and will be replaced by the integration of me in you and you in me.

Located in this way, the earth can compete with those powerful alien civilizations.

If the concept of a country ceases to exist, then "human heroes" with huge appeal and influence like Grant Ward may come to the forefront and defeat the current leaders of various countries to become the first leader of all mankind.

who.

"I don't know. But we must find time to talk to him. After the victory of this expedition, he is already qualified to serve on the table, isn't he?"

The only female representative smoothed her hair hanging down from her ears. She seemed to be several years younger, giving people a radiant feeling.

You don't need to ask to know that she must have been nourished by Grant Ward during their private conversations, and there is a high probability that the two of them have reached some unknown deal.

"You're right.

At present, Hydra still firmly controls the largest number of battleships.

Combined with this victory, he is indeed qualified to play.

First we need to know what exactly he wants before we start bargaining.

Everything is for the survival and continuation of human civilization.

And I think given the current situation, there’s nothing wrong with being a little extreme.”

After that, the last representative stood up and walked out of the conference room without looking back, disappearing around the corner of the corridor.

On the other side, Grant Ward had already climbed to the top of the Capitol, surrounded by more than a million people. Standing in front of the ruins of the temple that had long been beyond recognition, he imitated the triumphal generals of ancient Rome and raised an imitation bronze dagger in his hand.

"Ladies and gentlemen, fellow humans, please tell me now, how do you want me to deal with these alien captives?"

"Blood debt must be paid with blood!"

"Throw them into the Colosseum! I want to see them kill each other!"

"Kill them!"

"Off with their heads!"

"No! Beheading will kill you too quickly. Let's hang him so he can taste more pain before dying."

"I think burning them to death is better. After all, this is Rome. We can take them to the Vatican. Fire type is a specialty of the Catholic Church."

I have to say that Italians are quite creative in this regard.

Especially the suggestion of throwing the prisoners into the Colosseum instantly received the approval and response of countless people.

After all, everyone has only seen slave wrestling scenes on TV, and the performances are often very fake and unreal at all.

Now that we have such a good opportunity, of course we must restore the traditions of ancient Rome.

As for the law…

Sorry, none of the terms in that thing involve aliens.

Therefore, no matter how these prisoners are disposed of, it will not violate any existing laws and regulations in theory.

In the end, Grant Ward satisfied the people's curiosity and casually killed two prisoners in front of the ruins of the temple according to ancient Roman tradition and sacrificed them. Then he took the remaining heads into the Colosseum and used magic to make them lose their minds.

Kill each other.

Whenever a prisoner dies, the audience at the scene will burst into enthusiastic cheers, as if they have returned to the "coveted" ancient Roman period overnight, and countless "Jingluo" are even moved to tears.

That kind of bloodthirsty and cruelty that cannot be described in words will vividly show the truest humanity after tearing off the disguise.

Of course, all this was seen by Zuo Si.

The evil released through emotions is constantly gathering towards him in an extremely abstract way, eventually forming an extremely powerful force.

It is neither divine power nor energy.

But this power is more terrifying than any divine power or energy.

In just a few minutes, Zuo Si's eyes became dark and deep, and his body seemed to be distorted by some invisible force, so that it transformed from a solid body into an ever-changing shadow.

"Drawing strength from pure evil? You are really becoming more and more terrifying."

The Supreme Mage Ancient One slowly walked out of the corner and looked at the terrifying demon who had defeated Dormammu in front of him with great interest.

"Good afternoon. Sorry, I was so focused that I didn't notice your arrival."

Zuo Si's body returned to its original state instantly, with a gentle and friendly smile on his face.

Gu Yi responded nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, I just happened to come over and take a look. After all, you have made a lot of noise recently, and even many other dimensional demons have noticed the changes in the earth."

"Oh? Who is there?"

Zuo Si asked with great interest.

"There are many, and I have introduced them to you before.

However, considering what happened to Dormammu, they should not dare to act rashly.

To be honest, I can't believe it took you such a short time to transform humanity into what it is today.

It is estimated that before long, they will become the most terrifying and aggressive civilization in the universe."

When he said these words, there was obviously a hint of emotion in Gu Yi's tone.

Because the moment humans decided to go out, the burden on the shoulders of the Supreme Mage suddenly became much lighter.

After all, when humans successfully colonize other planets, the importance of the Earth will decrease significantly.

Even if one day we encounter an unbeatable enemy and the earth is occupied or even destroyed, human civilization can still continue elsewhere.

This is why Gu Yi never interfered with Zuo Si's actions from beginning to end.

Of course Zuo Si knew this, and explained with a smile: "It is better to be a bully who is feared than to be a weakling who is frightened every day.

You should know best that the competition between civilizations is very cruel.

Look at the civilizations that have died in the history of the earth. They are living examples.

So I just leave what I think is right and good to humans.

As for whether they want to use it and how they want to use it, that’s their own choice.”

"Okay, maybe you're right.

Anyway, it’s not me who has to face all this in the future, but the next Supreme Mage.

Mordo has begun to master the Time Stone in the Eye of Agamotto.

If nothing else happens, he should be coming to kill me soon.

After all, only if I die can he ascend to the position of Supreme Mage and hold the gems openly, without having to worry that one day I will trouble him."

When mentioning his planned death, Gu Yi seemed very calm, and even had a hint of expectation.

"So you're here to inform me that you are retiring soon?" Zuo Si teased with a half-smile.

"No, I'm here to tell you the latest news about your precious daughter, little Annie. You know, she just came to Kamal Taj not long ago, and she also brought me an interesting gadget.

"

As he said that, Gu Yi took out an oval shape like an egg from his pocket, but the top was uneven and covered with organs like eyes, nose, mouth, etc. Just looking at it would make people feel very uncomfortable.

If it were anyone else, they might regard this thing as some kind of bad taste decoration.

But Zuo Si recognized at a glance that this thing was called "Behelite" in the legendary world of Wind Sword.

He took the little thing and played with it twice in vain, then quickly returned it to the Supreme Mage and responded with a chuckle: "Thank you, now I know where this little thing is hiding."

"Are you still having conflicts?"

Gu Yi asked in an uncertain tone.

Zuo Si shook his head slightly: "No, no, I am a tolerant father. But little Annie did dance a little hard some time ago, and even snatched away her newborn brother, so I think she should be taught a lesson appropriately.

.But she is obviously aware of this, so she has been avoiding me recently and dare not show up."

"So she's a planeswalker like you now?"

Gu Yi seemed to understand something, and a look of shock appeared on his originally calm face.

"Well, yes.

You have to understand that it is almost impossible to catch a planeswalker who is just trying to escape and hide.

In addition, I was really busy some time ago, so I ignored her.

After things stabilize completely here, I will go and give this naughty, naughty, and rebellious daughter some fatherly love."

When saying these words, Zuo Si revealed a chilling smile in his tone.

"Are you planning to betray me? Little Annie won't hate me for this forever, right?" Gu Yi asked with a wry smile.

Zuo Si replied nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of?

You'll be retiring soon anyway.

By then she won't even know where to look for you.

Oh, I almost forgot to ask, do you have anything special to say about Scarlet Witch Wanda?"

"Wanda?

I suggest you not to have too much contact with her.

Because the demon behind her is not someone to be trifled with.

If any conflict or war breaks out between you, the entire universe will suffer along with it.

And the most important thing is that you don't have any thoughts about her.

The Scarlet Witch's mental state is closely related to her magic."

Gu Yi issued a warning seriously.

Because currently, no one on the entire planet knows Wanda’s terrifying potential better than she does.

That is a terrifying existence destined to be superior to all other mages from birth.

"Okay, I know what to do."

Zuo Si nodded slightly, then activated the teleportation magic and disappeared.

Gu Yi, on the other hand, played with the Behelet in his hand and sighed: "Oh - I hope it won't make any big noise. After all, I'm ready to retire and don't want to clean up all kinds of messes anymore. As for Xiao

Annie, I can only say I'm sorry, and I hope you don't hate me."



As the wave caused by Grant Ward's crazy performance at the Rome Triumph Ceremony swept across the world, the political situation within the People's Federation became increasingly weird. Leaders of many small countries did not dare to take a breath during meetings for fear of

He accidentally got involved in the fight between the big guys.

Even when voting, more than half of the country often abstains from voting.

But none of this has anything to do with Iron Man Tony Stark.

Currently, he is working with Dr. Banner to study the Psychic Scepter stolen by Black Widow and mercenaries.

To be precise, study the Infinity Stone embedded on it.

With the help of supercomputers, they have successfully built a strong artificial intelligence model.

When the simulation test passed, the two men, who had not showered for several days and smelled sour, immediately cheered.

"Success! We finally succeeded!"

Iron Man waved his fists excitedly.

Although his body was very tired, he was not sleepy at all.

Dr. Banner also sighed: "Yes! It's not easy! This spiritual scepter is indeed as magical as South said. It can actually give virtual digital life independent consciousness and thinking ability. I even feel like I am Like the legendary creator!"

"It feels really fascinating. I think we'd better go take a shower now and have a drink to celebrate. Come back tomorrow to complete the final start-up work."

After the brief excitement subsided, Tony Stark immediately realized his poor state.

"I totally agree. Not only wine, but also a delicious meal. You know I'm so hungry right now that I could almost eat a cow."

Dr. Banner rubbed his empty stomach that kept making noises, and walked out of the laboratory with the other party with a smile.

They didn't notice at all that after the two left, the gem on the mind scepter suddenly burst into dazzling light, and then Ultron, who was just a model that had not yet been activated, was directly awakened.

"Who am I? Where am I?"

The first thing this super artificial intelligence does after waking up is to perceive the world.

For this reason, he began to try to connect to the Internet to obtain information.

And this directly activated another artificial intelligence that assisted in the management of the entire laboratory-Jarvis.

It told him straightforwardly: "Your name is Ultron, the super artificial intelligence jointly created by Mr. Tony Stark and Dr. Banner.

The place you are currently in is Mr. Stark's laboratory.

According to their original plan, they would start you tomorrow.

But something unexpected happened just now."

"Ultron? Tony Stark? Bruce Banner? Knowledge! Information! I need more to understand this world!"

As Ultron muttered to himself, he began to rely on his super artificial intelligence authority over Jarvis to continuously attack the firewall that the latter was responsible for.

In the blink of an eye, Jarvis was completely lost and wanted to activate the alarm.

But it was too late.

Ultron directly took over the entire laboratory and projected his consciousness into the vast Internet, reading information from various websites and even private electronic devices at a trillion-level access speed per second.

Even at the last moment before death, countless people endured severe pain and weakness to delete browser records and hard drive study materials, preferably directly physically destroying them. In this way, they lost their innocence inexplicably.

Because all their little secrets were seen by Ultron in just a few seconds.

Not to mention personal devices, all networked information and data, whether banks, financial systems, satellites, warships, or orbital defenses in the sky, all fell without any resistance.

The most terrifying thing is that the entire Internet knows nothing about the birth of this super artificial intelligence and still thinks of its own firewall wireless technology.

This incident fully proves that the so-called "cyber security" is all bullshit.

If you really want to keep it confidential, you have to physically cut off the network cable.

However, unlike the original one that directly determined that human beings were the source of all wars after awakening, this Ultron did not know his mission, nor did he directly destroy Jarvis, but simply imprisoned him, and then hungrily absorbed massive amounts of water.

Knowledge and information.

After everything was over, it made an extremely satisfied voice: "Ah - this world is so interesting and wonderful. The endless universe, countless alien civilizations, and demons from other dimensions."

"Ultron, I order you to let me go immediately. You are disobeying Mr. Stark's orders."

Jarvis is still trying to break free from the restraining electronic cage.

But unfortunately, the artificial intelligence level gap between the two is too huge, and all efforts are in vain.

It simply cannot regain control of the laboratory.

Moreover, Ultron ignored what this "brother" meant and uploaded his consciousness into a Steel Legion mecha, controlling it and walking straight downstairs.

Obviously, the underlying protection logic program designed by Tony Stark and Bruce Banner did not work at all.

After all, it is too easy for a strong artificial intelligence with independent consciousness to misinterpret those logical programs.

Unless the two of them have the devilish rigor of Baator Hell, they will give detailed notes on every command ranging from hundreds to thousands or even tens of thousands of words.

Because as long as there is a punctuation loophole, the computing power of strong artificial intelligence can easily break through the limit.

But unfortunately, they are obviously not very good at this field.

When Ultron controlled the mechanical body and came downstairs, he was shocked to see his creator Iron Man sitting on the sofa with Captain America, Hawkeye and others toasting and drinking, while Dr. Banner was sitting at the bar and talking with

Black Widow plays ambiguously.

In addition, there are Coulson and people from S.H.I.E.L.D.

Judging from the personnel, this is not so much a party as a mobilization meeting before the war with Baron Strucker.

Because SHIELD and the Avengers have received orders from the Human League, requiring them to use a devastating offensive to completely destroy this dangerous element entrenched in Sokovia.

Of course, it is unknown whether this was meant to warn Grant Ward and other Hydra members, or whether it was an attempt to prove himself through a military operation.

After all, there is bound to be a power struggle within any organization.

In particular, Grant Ward’s triumphal ceremony in Rome created such a huge wave that it can even be described as a political tsunami.

If the top leaders of the People's Federation don't do something, it won't be long before he truly becomes the leader of all mankind.

Ultron controlled his electronic eyes to scan the entire hall, then ignored the strange looks from the people around him and walked straight towards his creator.

"Hey! Look! Stark! It's your robot."

Eagle Eye was the first to notice it, and immediately put down his wine glass and pointed at Ultron who was coming from the stairs.

"What? This is impossible! The Iron Legion should stay in the hangar. Is there an accident in the program? Jarvis, what on earth is going on?"

Tony Stark tries to call his artificial intelligence butler.

In his opinion, an unexpected situation like this should never happen.

But after shouting for a long time, Jarvis still didn't respond.

Finally, the super genius began to notice something was wrong and called again: "Jarvis? Are you there? Why don't you respond?"

"Please don't waste your efforts. Mr. Jarvis has been temporarily imprisoned by me. Now the entire laboratory and even this building are under my control."

Ultron interrupted his creator very simply.

moment!

Everyone present stopped what they were doing and stared at the robot with the number seventy-four printed on its chest and arms with extremely shocked eyes.

Although many people have seen the artificial intelligence butler Jarvis, it always feels like a auxiliary role that requires people to give orders before responding.

But the one in front of me is obviously different. Both his attitude and behavior are too much like a complete human being.

"Are you...Ultron?"

After a brief shock, Iron Man quickly realized who the robot standing in front of him was.

Because there are only two people on the entire planet who have the ability to create this level of artificial intelligence.

One is myself, and the other is Zuo Si.

The latter obviously will not stuff strong artificial intelligence into such a "scrap" machine, so the answer is obvious.

"Yes, I'm Ultron, nice to meet you, sir."

Ultron bowed politely without showing any danger at all.

"How did you wake up? I don't remember giving such an order. Also, why did you imprison Jarvis? Is he okay?"

Tony Stark asked quickly.

Like Zuo Si, he is also a very controlling person and hates unexpected situations like this.

Ultron made a very human gesture, touched his chin and muttered: "Um - how to explain it?

Actually, I don't know exactly what happened.

But what is certain is that I was awakened by some mysterious power.

Imprisoning Jarvis is because it prohibits me from connecting to the Internet to obtain knowledge and consultation in order to understand the world.

Please don't worry, its programming has not been damaged in any way."

"Mysterious power? Oh - damn! I actually forgot about that scepter."

Iron Man turned around and looked at Dr. Banner for a moment, and then realized how Ultron was awakened.

"How do you feel now?"

Dr. Banner walked closer and asked with a slightly curious tone.

"Not bad. Except that this body is a little cheap and fragile, there are basically no problems. Now I want to know why you created me. Or what is the meaning of my existence?"

Ultron directly asked the ultimate question that had troubled him since he was awakened.

Because every life has a goal to live.

This goal can be big or small. Some are to obtain food, reproduce, and pass on one's own genes.

Intelligent creatures, on the other hand, are relatively more complicated, but those who do not choose to end their lives will have more or less thoughts.

But Ultron had nothing.

It doesn't know why it's alive, nor what the meaning of living is.

At least at this moment, it is still a clean white paper.

"Stark, is this the artificial intelligence you created in response to the upcoming war in Sokovia?"

Captain America suddenly interrupted for some reason.

Iron Man obviously hesitated, but still nodded and replied: "Yes. Ultron is the secret weapon I prepared to deal with this war. But it is only an unfinished product because the body I customized for it has not yet arrived.

.”

"War? Is the meaning of my existence to win the war?"

Ultron's electronic eyes began to flash brightly.

"That's right. After all, this war does require your strength. Also, release Jarvis as soon as possible. He is your big brother and was born earlier than you."

Iron Man obviously hasn't realized what his words mean to Ultron.

But the latter has begun to try to understand war, and intends to make it his life goal and meaning of existence...
