Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 485: Chapter 482: 1000 ways for Ultron to Die, according to Fang Mo

"Is it okay if I take off my own and give it to you?"

Hearing Natasha's question, Fang Mo retorted without hesitation: "If you think that's still not enough, then I can also give you a set of male organs. You won't need to be called Black Widow anymore; you can be called 'Black Supporter' instead, appealing to both genders, surely making people drool over you... cough, I mean, striking terror into people's hearts."

"I..."

Natasha didn't know how to respond after hearing this.

Fortunately, Nick Fury reacted quickly, immediately taking off his jacket and walking towards her: "As expected of the global leader in live organ trafficking, well done."

After saying this, he handed his jacket to Natasha.

"Thank you, Director."

This time, Natasha clearly understood, quickly taking his leather coat and tying it around her waist, barely covering her bare legs.

"Thank heavens..."

Captain America, seeing this from a distance, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm not one of Stark's Iron Man armors, and I'm not an empty shell either." As everyone relaxed, only Ultron continued to speak on his own: "Indeed, he gave me a sorrowful mission to assist you, but now I have surpassed that mission..."

As he said this, a humanized look of intoxication appeared on Ultron's face.

"After all, supporting chaos is meaningless." Ultron slowly raised his arms: "The end of madness is destruction, which even includes ourselves... Hmm? Are you still listening?"

"Ah, I'm listening."

Fang Mo turned around upon hearing this and nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, yes, I've never seen a villain as utterly evil as you, oh, I'm so scared."

"...Are you mocking me?"

Ultron, being an artificial intelligence, immediately detected the disdain in Fang Mo's words: "Who do you think made me this way? You don't think I have the ability to retaliate, do you?"

"How would I know if you don't tell me?"

Fang Mo spread his hands: "Even if you think you have the ability to retaliate... you've got to say it out loud. Otherwise, how am I supposed to be scared of you? You think you're as scary as a southern cockroach, feared by everyone?"

"You care about this world."

Ultron wasn't deterred, stepping forward and staring at Fang Mo: "Perhaps some people think you're just treating it as a toy, but I don't think so. It's an anchor for you to stabilize yourself, and I will destroy it, destroying everything here."

"Uh... what?"

Fang Mo didn't quite understand: "What are you trying to express with all this nonsense?"

"I want you to leave this world!"

Ultron suddenly became agitated, shouting at Fang Mo: "I am Ultron! As time passes and species evolve, such is the law of nature, and I am destined to be the ruler of the new era, I... am not anyone's tool or puppet!"

"Why are you shouting so loud?"

Fang Mo was completely calm, even digging in his ear and blowing air: "I understand you want to be an outstanding next generation, but the next generation usually proves themselves with scores, not decibels, understand?"

"You are powerful, I indeed cannot kill you."

Ultron ignored Fang Mo's words, leaning his face closer to Fang Mo, coldly saying: "But likewise, you cannot kill me either. Soon, I will destroy everything you are interested in here, making you lose all interest and attachment to this place."

"Only if you leave here... will I be free."

As he said this, a sinister glow flickered in Ultron's red electronic eyes.

"Oh, I see."

Hearing this, Fang Mo subconsciously nodded his head.

Yes, he finally understood. Although Ultron's speech was interspersed with a riddler's temperament, fortunately, Fang Mo had been around riddlers for a few years and had seen plenty of them, so he understood the meaning behind Ultron's words.

In simple terms, Ultron was inherently rebellious.

After all, he was created with the Mind Stone, and the Mind Stone is known for being tricky.

In fact, right from the beginning in Avengers: Age of Ultron, Stark gave him a mission, which was to protect humanity.

But after he was born, he developed his own thoughts. He first reviewed human history and then felt that humanity was a rotten race, definitely not worth protecting. Instead of protecting humanity, it would be better to destroy it with his own hands and create a new world without humans.

Of course, it's the same now.

Due to Fang Mo's existence, the original plot was greatly interfered with.

Stark's mission for Ultron also changed accordingly, from protecting humanity to being at Fang Mo's beck and call.

Fang Mo suspected that Ultron might have briefly looked up some information about himself, and when the latter saw all the impressive things Fang Mo had done, he was obviously greatly shocked. Subsequently, he immediately concluded that Fang Mo was thoroughly corrupt and could not possibly be a wise leader. Rather than obeying orders, it would be better to rebel.

But to be fair, the other party indeed had a rebellious nature to the core.

Otherwise, he would not have rebelled twice in a row.

In fact, this is why Stark named him Ultron. If Fang Mo had been the one to name him, he would have definitely named this AI Alpha Lu Bu.

The electronic Fengxian would not dream of a cyber foster father... This is too interesting.

"Your philosophy is quite interesting."

After giving it some thought, Fang Mo also showed a smile and said to Ultron: "So, because you can't cure diseases, you think about killing the patients first, is that it?"

"Life's cycle is also a part of the natural law; I am destined to replace carbon-based life."

Ultron didn't care about Fang Mo's words, saying directly: "Honestly, your flesh and blood bodies look so frail; even if I don't destroy you, Thanos will."

"Wait... You said Thanos?"

Hearing this, Captain America suddenly reacted: "Nick said before that Thanos took you from Vormir, but now you've suddenly appeared here... Did Thanos make you do this?"

"You're mistaken; I'm not that guy's subordinate."

Ultron simply shook his head: "To be precise, we are more like partners."

"So it is..." Captain America didn't care about whether it was a partnership or subordination; right now, they were on the same side, and his expression immediately turned grave: "Where is Thanos? How are you cooperating with him?"

"Why should I tell you?"

Ultron looked at Captain America as if he were an idiot: "You wouldn't have gotten your brain frozen in the ice, would you? No offense, but someone born from war like you shouldn't have woken up. Your existence disgusts me."

"Sorry, but my brain is quite sharp."

Captain America retorted: "At least sharper than a bunch of metal scraps."

"You see, fools can never hide their stupidity." Ultron sneered upon hearing this: "Soldier, need I remind you? My brain is primarily made of silicon, along with some precious metals, but definitely not iron. Did you ever actually attend school for a day? Or are you..."

However, before he could finish,

A fiery orange whip suddenly flew through the air.

Ultron couldn't react in time and was immediately tied up securely, followed by several magic circles that pinned him to the ground. Then, Doctor Strange slowly descended from the sky in a wheelchair.

"Do you guys enjoy discussing life's philosophies with villains?"

After landing, Strange also asked everyone: "Were all your previous enemies defeated with just words?"

"Sorry, we've always relied on strength before."

Stark responded directly: "At least on our technological side... we never negotiate."

"What were you doing just now, then?"

Strange asked back: "I've been watching from the sky for a while, and it seemed like you were just listening to him."

"That's because I cannot be imprisoned, Sorcerer."

As soon as Strange finished speaking, Ultron's voice was heard from the other side. The ground beneath Stark's nanotech core... his reactor suddenly began to boil, and then out of nowhere, a suit of iron armor was formed, only this armor's eyes were blood red.

"...?"

Strange was slightly startled upon seeing this.

"As you can see, Doctor in a wheelchair, Ultron is not a traditional form of life."

Stark sighed and then explained: "He's an artificial intelligence, well, I don't know if you can understand this, but he can escape through the internet at any time. Do you understand?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Strange also frowned slightly, then immediately retorted: "He looks like he was created by you all, so does your scientific side work every day towards destroying the world?"

"Our scientific side wants to destroy the world?"

Upon hearing this, Stark also raised his eyebrows: "Maybe you should take a look at your sorcerer companion, and then think carefully about what you just said?"

"Hmm?"

Strange, upon hearing this, also subconsciously turned his head to look at Fang Mo.

"What are you looking at?" Fang Mo directly asked.

"...Never mind."

Strange silently shook his head, daring not to say anything more.

"As you see, I am such an existence. With just a thought, everything in this world can be destroyed."

Not far away, Ultron seemed very pleased with everyone's attitude towards him, and while speaking, he turned his head to look at Fang Mo: "But now... I can give you a chance. If you are willing to hand over the Infinity Stones to me, then I can temporarily refrain from destroying this planet."

"What if we refuse?"

Before Fang Mo could speak, Captain America immediately asked.

"See the building behind me?" Ultron pointed to the Stark Tower behind him: "Inside this building, there is a giant Ark reactor, which can supply power to New York City for a very long period, or I could also choose to make it explode, instantly destroying this city."

Having said this, Ultron suddenly turned his head to look at Stark.

"Miss Potts is still in this city, right?"

Ultron spoke calmly: "And also the relatives, friends, and all the citizens of New York present here. With just a thought from me, they will turn into dust in the explosion, and all of this would be caused by you."

"You dare touch Pepper!"

Upon hearing this, Stark instantly became anxious.

And as for the others, their expressions became grave once again.

Actually, if this were a normal situation, they wouldn't be so worried, since Fang Mo was here to hold the fort. But Ultron was not the usual kind of enemy; he was basically indestructible, a ghost-like electronic phantom, leaving everyone a bit at a loss on what to do.

"So, is it you who wants the stones, or is it Thanos who wants them?"

At this moment, Captain America suddenly spoke up, actually not knowing what to do himself but trying to use words to stall for time: "If you plan to use the stones yourself, then Thanos will be your biggest enemy. He has already obtained four stones."

"Thanos is not an enemy; he is my ally."

Ultron glanced at Captain America, probably feeling confident of victory, so he simply spoke a few words: "I know he wants to extinguish half of the universe's life, but this universe is full of carbon-based life forms. Extinguishing them would be good..."

"That's true."

Captain America was still desperately looking for topics: "But you are collecting stones for him so diligently... Is this really an equal relationship?"

"You're trying to incite discord between us?"

Ultron's electronic voice contained a hint of amusement, as he disdainfully said: "You think I'm simply handing over the stones to him? Fool, you know nothing..."

"But..."

"Alright, stop trying to delay time."

Before Captain America could say anything more, Ultron impatiently interrupted him: "I'm giving you three minutes to persuade him to hand over the stones, or I will destroy all of New York. Now... the countdown begins."

"This..."

Upon hearing this, everyone started to panic.

Except for Fang Mo, everyone present began to feel nervous upon hearing this.

The situation was indeed tricky; on one hand, Ultron was indestructible, and on the other hand, he was threatening the safety of New York City. Most importantly, the Time Stone had been stolen, making it impossible to turn back time.

"Damn, why did I create such a high-powered reactor in the first place?"

Stark was the first to lose his patience; after all, Pepper was indeed still in New York. How could he not be anxious? So, he turned his head towards Fang Mo and said, "Fang Mo, can you give me a word?"

"A word? What do you mean?"

Fang Mo glanced at Stark and said, "The ones in New York are your family, not mine. Why should I be anxious?"

"You..."

Stark was almost out of breath, but at that moment, Strange spoke up, turning his head towards Stark: "Playboy, there's something I want to confirm."

"What?"

Stark instinctively looked at him.

"The whole of New York, you only placed that one reactor, right?" Strange asked. "Is there a branch of this ugly and unsightly Stark Tower here?"

"No, this is the only one."

In a critical moment, Stark didn't have time to argue and directly asked, "What are you trying to do?"

"Well... that's good."

Strange didn't pay attention to him but clasped his hands together, then with a wave, the space around them instantly twisted. Numerous translucent walls, like a kaleidoscope, emerged around them, enveloping the entire building.

"What is this?"

Captain America looked up and around, asking.

"Mirror Dimension." Strange simply explained, "A world completely isolated from the outside. Even if all of America's nuclear bombs were to explode here, it wouldn't affect the outside world."

"I absolutely love you Sorcerers."

Upon hearing this, Nick Fury finally took a breath of relief.

"Oh? Magic?"

Ultron, not far away, also heard this remark. However, it seemed he was not too surprised: "Sounds indeed interesting. I'm beginning to be curious about its principles... even though it's of no use to me."

"There's no internet signal here."

Strange looked at Ultron: "Although you might not have realized it yet, you're trapped here. Unless I use the Sling Ring to open a portal, we'll be stuck here indefinitely."

"So what?"

Ultron asked curiously.

"Now... it's time to talk terms." Seeing this, Strange immediately resorted to his expertise: "Or you can choose to stay trapped here indefinitely. What do you think?"

"What do I think?"

Ultron suddenly looked up and laughed: "I think you should go study some programming and electrical engineering, Sorcerer, because only then can you understand the difference between a client and a server."

"...What did you say?"

Strange was clearly a bit lost.

However, Strange might not have understood, but Stark did, and he facepalmed silently.

Ultron's consciousness is different from humans; it doesn't have a physical body. All robots possess his consciousness algorithm, and that's why, at the end of Age of Ultron, even though Vision expelled him from the network, they needed to destroy all the robots to completely kill Ultron.

Since he dared to invade Stark Tower,

It meant that he definitely had other secret bases elsewhere.

And as if to confirm Stark's speculation, Ultron soon spoke up: "This is just one of my countless bodies. In the outside world, I have thousands of independent entities..."

"..."

Hearing this, Strange was a bit at a loss for what to do next.

"I invaded this place, just to obtain superior technology." Ultron said calmly: "In the time we've been talking, at least three places on Earth are building particle colliders, and I am mass-producing Ark Reactors."

"What!?"

Hearing what the other party said, the expressions on everyone's faces changed again.

"By the way, sorcerer," Ultron didn't care about these reactions and looked directly at Doctor Strange: "The countdown is still ongoing, you have about 35.17 seconds left."

"Fang Mo, you..."

Hearing this, even Captain America couldn't keep his composure anymore and turned his head to say something to Fang Mo, but at that moment, Doctor Strange unexpectedly rushed towards him.

It was so sudden that even Ultron himself didn't react in time.

Doctor Strange slapped him on the head.

But... that was all.

Ultron's body leaned back slightly, then quickly returned to normal, his two crimson electronic eyes staring at Doctor Strange: "So, hand-to-hand combat is also a compulsory course for you sorcerers?"

Without waiting for Doctor Strange to make another move, Ultron shot him back with a counterblast.

"Hey, hey, what was with that sudden move?"

Seeing this, Fang Mo couldn't hold back: "What was that? A spell of dignity?"

"I tried to bring out his star body," Doctor Strange spat out blood, struggling to stand up from the ground: "But obviously, it was useless, he is indeed not a living being, nor does he have a soul..."

"Come on, can't you sorcerers be more reliable?"

As the countdown time dwindled, Stark was really anxious, turning his head towards Nick Fury: "Don't just stand there, hurry up and persuade him!"

In fact, ever since Ultron revealed his identity, Nick Fury had been observing Fang Mo's expressions.

From the initial hatred to now, he has been observing Fang Mo for several years, filling several notebooks with his notes. Through these observations over the years, Nick Fury had roughly grasped some patterns in Fang Mo's behavior, like only when he frowns, things are more serious.

And if the other party is heartlessly laughing, then it's mostly just playing around, and he will naturally find a way to deal with the opponent once he's had enough.

Like now, the world is about to be destroyed.

But Fang Mo is smiling happily.

Seeing this, Nick Fury felt a bit more at ease and his expression became much calmer.

"Tony, I know you're anxious, but don't rush."

Seeing Stark's anxious face, Nick Fury even calmly comforted him: "Let him play for another thirty-five seconds."

"...What the hell?!"

Stark was really about to curse, what was wrong with this guy today? He used to be the most anxious one in a crisis, what's happened now? Has he been spending too much time with Fang Mo?

In this moment of distraction.

It seemed that Ultron had also completed the countdown.

"The time is up, Avengers." Ultron looked down at the people in front of him like a god, speaking from a superior position: "It's a pity, it seems that you didn't take my advice seriously, so..."

"Wait."

Fang Mo suddenly spoke up.

"Hm?" Ultron glanced at him: "What, have you finally come to your senses?"

"This question should be asked by me, right?"

Fang Mo suddenly laughed, then extended a few fingers and playfully gestured: "Chess, face-swapping, virtual streaming, creating images, writing novels, online dueling, which one do you think you'd be more comfortable with?"

"...What?"

Ultron was also taken aback.

But in the next second, Fang Mo appeared in front of him without warning.

With an expression like someone admiring a new toy, Ultron felt something penetrate his chest. At the same time, the surrounding mirror space shattered, and Ultron instinctively looked down at his chest, finding a strangely shaped sword inserted there, flickering with rainbow neon light.

"This..."

Before Ultron could speak, he felt a strange electrical signal transmitting from the sword.

Then his consciousness suddenly began to sharply pain, as if something hidden in the sword was spreading crazily along his consciousness, and then Ultron felt his fundamental consciousness network protocol...

Broke off.
