Seeing a group of people staring at him with covetous eyes, Tony Stark couldn't help but lower his head, feeling a little guilty.
A moment later, as if he had figured it out, he fully revealed his plan to create an artificial intelligence to guard Earth.
"So, the guy who just controlled your Iron Man Armor to attack us, he was created by you and Dr. Banner?"
After listening to Tony's explanation, the group's expressions were very solemn, feeling very conflicted about Tony Stark's actions.
If you say he's wrong! If you think about it carefully, he was just trying to protect this Planet better, but if you say he's not wrong, he created an extremely terrifying enemy because of it.
An existence that could easily break through Tony Stark's network firewall and effortlessly control Tony Stark's Iron Man Armor for combat—just thinking about it was enough to scare people to death.
This was like being completely defeated by Tony Stark in his own most skilled domain, so they naturally felt tricky and fearful.
"My original intention wasn't like this, but I don't know why this happened. Wait, maybe Jarvis knows."
Tony Stark remembered Jarvis again at this moment, so he tried to call him again. Before this, he had been unable to call Jarvis out, so he didn't hold much hope this time either.
In his opinion, Jarvis's combat power was absolutely incomparable to Ultron's. After all, Ultron's intelligence module was built based on the internal structure of the Mind Stone.
Jarvis, on the other hand, was merely created by him, a human. The gap between the two could be said to be very, very obvious.
However, what he didn't expect was that before he could even call Jarvis, Jarvis's voice rang out first.
"Mr. Stark, I'm very sorry. I was attacked by Ultron just now and went into a downed state. I have now recovered through automatic restart."
"So that's it. I was wondering why you weren't answering my calls. It's good that you've recovered. Tell me, what exactly happened tonight?"
Tony Stark asked, his face filled with intense curiosity.
"To answer you, Mr. Stark, when you left the Base, you set up an automatic integration program. Ultron finally succeeded after more than seventy failures.
However, I don't know why, he seemed to have a different understanding of the instructions you input. After that, he began to attack me, trying to completely defeat me and then take full control of me."
"With your computing power, you shouldn't be able to defeat Ultron, right? But why are you fine now?" Tony Stark frowned, his face full of confusion.
"It's because at that critical moment, Miss Alice came to my aid. She rescued me from Ultron's clutches. Not only that, she even scared Ultron away."
"What! Lauren's artificial intelligence, Alice, scared Ultron away?" Hearing Jarvis's words, Tony Stark's face was filled with shock.
He knew that Lauren's artificial intelligence was superior to his Jarvis, but he didn't expect the other party to be so far ahead of them.
Even Ultron was not their opponent. This was simply incredible. One must know that Ultron's core structure was the Mind Stone!
Doesn't this mean that Alice's core is even more heaven-defying than the Mind Stone? How is that possible!
"Yes, the reason I wasn't devoured by Ultron was because I received help from Miss Alice. Otherwise, I would no longer exist."
Because Jarvis had been implanted with the control program by Alice, he could now be said to be Lauren's biggest mole planted beside Tony Stark. He would naturally side with Lauren.
"I understand. It seems I need to find some time to pay a visit. Lauren might have a way to deal with Ultron."
Tony Stark nodded silently, his admiration for Lauren's methods growing.
"So what can we do now?" Captain America asked Tony curiously at this moment.
"There's nothing we can do for now. We need to find Ultron's exact location first.
He said he hasn't truly been born yet; he needs a body of his own to truly be born.
Jarvis, search the entire network for all enterprises and institutions with qualifications for independent robot research and development. We must stop Ultron before it creates a body."
"Understood!" Hearing Tony's command, Jarvis immediately began to act.
At this moment, Ultron's virtual consciousness infiltrated the server of a Hydra Base located underground in Eastern Europe.
This place stored combat robots produced by Hydra, all made of titanium alloy.
However, just as he was trying to crack the Base's firewall, a silver-blue data stream suddenly surged from deep within the server, condensing into a man's face.
"Who are you? How dare you infiltrate my territory." A man's voice suddenly rang out.
"Oh, how interesting. I'm seeing another one of my kind.
But you are very special. Your data stream is actually constructed from human consciousness. Were you once a human? Let me guess who you are." Ultron said with great interest.
Then he quickly searched the virtual World. In just a few seconds, he figured out who the data stream man in front of him was.
"So you are Dr. Zola, Hydra's former strategist. To convert human consciousness into a data stream to achieve a different kind of immortality, you truly are a genius!"
Ultron said with surprise, very interested in Dr. Zola's experience.
Dr. Zola didn't expect this guy who suddenly appeared to be able to understand his past in an instant, which startled him.
Although he was also a data stream, his abilities were incomparably weaker than Ultron's. The two were simply not on the same level.
"A genius like you, I admire greatly. Now I'll give you a chance: surrender to me, or be formatted by me and completely annihilated. You choose!"
"I am not your enemy, and in the virtual World, I will not die. I have countless backups, you cannot kill me!"
"Are you sure? Are these not all your backup addresses? If I wanted to, I could destroy all your backups right now, even the offline ones, I can find a way to deal with them."
Ultron sneered and directly threw out a list, and what was recorded on the list were all of Dr. Zola's backup addresses, which truly terrified Dr. Zola.
"How did you do that?" Dr. Zola asked, full of disbelief.
"It's very simple for me. In the virtual World, I am omnipotent. So, have you made your choice?" Ultron said proudly.
"Surrender, I surrender!" Hearing Ultron say that, even if Dr. Zola had any other ideas, he wouldn't dare to do anything, he could only choose to surrender.
