There is no doubt that Ultron's sudden early awakening caught Tony Stark and Bruce Banner, the two "old fathers," off guard, and even a little bit at a loss.
Because it was not activated according to plan, but was activated by the Mind Stone in the Infinity Stones.
Therefore, neither of them is quite sure what is the difference between this Ultron and the Ultron they expected.
After all, they had already seen the power of the Mind Scepter when Loki led the Chitauri to invade. Even a top agent with professional training like Hawkeye could not withstand it and would be completely mentally controlled in an instant.
.
And according to the information brought back by Black Widow, Baron Strucker is still using it to conduct some unspeakable supernatural experiments, and has created several superpowers and mysterious conceptual weapons.
So no one can guarantee that this Ultron will become a good helper to the Avengers and even mankind as a whole as expected.
Especially when Dr. Banner discovered that none of the protective underlying logic he designed worked, and Ultron was even more independent and autonomous than most humans, without any restrictions at all, he was dumbfounded.
Similarly, Tony Stark finally realized that the previous warning from Zuo Si was not alarmist, and strong artificial intelligence was simply not something that human society could control today.
In the next few days, they have been evaluating and testing Ultron, and found that the Iron Legion commanded by Ultron can almost crush Jarvis during virtual combat.
To be precise, the former is a complete dimensionality reduction attack on the latter, and even a truly professional general will find it difficult to take even a slight advantage from Ultron.
Normally, if you want to fight an evenly matched enemy, you have to at least reduce the number of troops controlled by Ultron to half or even one-third.
But even so, its winning rate is still frighteningly high.
The reason is very simple.
Controlling the Iron Legion by others is equivalent to playing a real-time strategy game, but it is playing a first-person action game. It directly uploads its own consciousness to each robot, and then breaks it into parts to act as a whole.
During the battle, the information collected by any robot will be gathered together, and then perfectly coordinated in a way that individuals can never achieve.
While the Iron Legion controlled by humans is still busy micro-managing on the computer, Ultron's Iron Legion has been able to form an overwhelming local advantage with less than half or even one-third of the opponent's strength.
The ratio of efficiency to battle damage will drive out the enemies in front of you bit by bit.
Most people don't even understand why the Iron Legion controlled by Ultron can always attack their weakest parts by surprise.
"Damn! I think we created a terrible monster, didn't we?"
Bruce Banner looked at the test report and couldn't help but complain.
Because he discovered that Ultron had uploaded his consciousness to the Internet, and now it became impossible to shut it down.
"What, do you regret it?"
Iron Man sighed slightly helplessly.
Based on the test results in hand, he can basically conclude that if he shows his intention to shut down Ultron, then the other party may escape and rebel in minutes.
But fortunately, as long as he doesn't show any hostility, Ultron will most likely obey his creator's orders.
In addition, he also has to explain to the People's Federation what this strong artificial intelligence is all about, and what terrible destructive effects it will have on the world if it gets out of control.
The only good thing is that Ultron should be of great help when attacking Sokovia.
Bruce Banner smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, I don't regret participating in this great work. But the problem is that we are obviously not prepared, and neither are the earth and mankind. It is too powerful,
And there are no restrictions at all.”
"Then what do you think we should do now?"
Tony Stark rolled his eyes angrily.
"Don't ask me how I could know. You originally proposed this plan. Didn't you make the appropriate filings?"
Dr. Banner turned around and stared at the other party, as if expecting the so-called "registration".
But he obviously doesn't know Tony Stark as a person.
As an extremely proud, conceited, arrogant, and arrogant super genius, he never considered the possibility of "failure" at all.
So naturally there can be no "recording".
Just when the two of them were staring at each other, Ultron, who had just loaded himself into a new adamantine body, suddenly fell from the sky and reported in a slightly excited and expectant tone: "Mr. Stark, Mr. Banner.
SHIELD Director Phil Coulson has just sent a message that the attack on Sokovia will begin in twenty-four hours.
You'd better take a shower quickly, eat something, and have a good sleep.
As for the Iron Legion, don't worry.
I have started to bring the equipment workshop to full production.
When the war begins, we will be fighting a mechanical army of more than ten thousand people."
"Well done! This war depends on you."
Iron Man raised his hand with a complicated expression and patted this "big boy" on the shoulder to show his closeness.
"Don't worry, I will never let you down."
Ultron swears by its guarantee.
Because it has completely bound its life goals and meaning of existence to war, and is extremely eager to prove itself.
In this way, in an atmosphere of worry and tension, the war plan named Operation Thunder by the People's Federation finally slowly began.
Perhaps considering that the previous expedition gave Grant Ward unprecedented public support and political capital, they also wanted to replicate this.
Not only did they dispatch the two trump cards of SHIELD and the Avengers, but they also dispatched half of the legion stationed at the headquarters of the People's Federation.
Including one hundred thousand of the most elite clone troopers, as well as a full three hundred Astartes warriors who had just completed the transformation surgery.
Although their bodies are far from reaching their strongest state, they can already form a crushing advantage over ordinary soldiers.
After wearing a full set of equipment, you can basically easily kill enemies hundreds of times your own size in acting confrontations.
Especially in close-range street fighting and trench fighting, they can easily break through the meat grinder defense line like a god of death. Most of the time, the opponent is already dead without even being able to see clearly their movements.
It can be said that this super force is used as a battering ram to directly smash the defense line built by Baron Strucker.
In addition, the People's Federation also approved the use of third-level energy weapons, including melta guns, small tactical nuclear bombs, laser weapons, electromagnetic pulse weapons and ion cannons.
Obviously, they already have a rough idea of ​​the level of Baron Strucker's weapons and equipment, so they don't dare to take it lightly.
God knows how many advanced technologies and goodies were secretly stuffed into this mad scientist before Alexander Pierce was exposed.
The most important thing is that Captain Marvel - Carol Danvers may appear on the enemy's side, so we must be fully prepared.
If possible, the top management of the People's Federation would actually like to ask Carla to take action.
After all, she had successfully defeated this destructive superhero in the previous battle.
But it's a pity that this is a civil war between people on Earth, so the Kryptonian girl would not be stupid enough to get involved in such nonsense.
Therefore, Thor and Hulk, the two most powerful fighters in the Avengers, have become the last hope.
But unfortunately, Thor rejected this invitation, so in theory, the only one who can compete with Captain Marvel is the Hulk.
As for Ultron, who has just received a new body, the People's Federation does not yet know its terrifying potential, so it does not have high expectations for him.
In this way, with the piercing air defense sirens sounding over Sokovia, a war that both sides had planned for a long time finally started.
As the party that firmly controls the air superiority, it is naturally impossible for the People's Alliance not to use air strikes and bombing tactics.
If they hadn't been holding back their full strength to suppress Grant Ward, they would have even directly used orbital bombing to completely level the entire area.
And no one cares whether the civilians living on the soil of Sokovia are accidentally injured by the bombing.
After all, there are so many excuses that can be used.
For example, there are no civilians in the area, they are all enemies brainwashed by Hydra.
Not only does this completely ignore civilian casualties, but it also undermines Hydra's growing support and at least makes people question Grant Ward's motives and purposes.
Another example would be to put the blame on Baron Strucker. Let's say that this crazy Hydra leader activated antimatter self-destruction to kill all civilians when faced with failure.
In short, if the top executives of the People's Federation want to cover up the truth, they don't have many ways.
Anyway, Sokovia is just a small country with no international reputation, let alone a voice or sense of existence.
I'm afraid more than 99% of people can't find its location on the map.
This means that as long as communications and the Internet are cut off, and political power is used to order all media to report the incident, ordinary people may not even know what happened when everything is settled.
Facts have proved that there has never been so-called "dignity for ordinary people" in this world.
As a citizen of a small country, even survival or death must be decided by others.
To be continued...
