Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 490: [Sponsored] Chapter 487: Ultron New Body (1)

[This Chapter Is Sponsored by Moneymancer! Everyone, please thank him in the comment!]

Ultron ultimately suffered due to his ignorance of magic.

Taking advantage of his distraction, Fang Mo directly pressed this body onto the anvil, then picked up a loyalty enchantment book and smacked it onto its head.

Accompanied by the sound of clinking and clanking.

Ultron's new body has now become such that it cannot survive without Fang Mo.

Besides the loyalty enchantment, Fang Mo picked and chose from his enchantment book, adding enchantments like efficiency, durability, luck, knockback, infinity, strength, and various protections as well.

Though these enchantments might seem impressive at a glance.

But in reality, this was just the beginning.

Thus, Fang Mo quickly brought it over to the Tinkers' Construct tool forging station, beginning to apply various Tinkers' Construct enhancements to it.

This time, it was somewhat outrageous.

First, applying redstone for speed, then layering it with heavy protection plates for defense.

Then came emerald, diamond, and obsidian plates, which not only enhanced various attributes but also directly stacked the durability attribute to indestructibility.

After that, it was the lightness of exploding chorus fruit and the soul binding of the Nether Star.

Of course, there was also the most important one.

That is, the imprinting.

This was Fang Mo's first time imprinting in the real world.

Previously, when he used the Tinkers' Workshop, most of his work involved repairing weapons for others, or just enhancing real-world items to indestructibility.

But this time, Fang Mo planned to try infusing Tinkers' Construct traits into an item from the real world.

That is, into Ultron's new body.

He chose several different metals, like cobalt, mithril, and resonant ender, all of which were particularly suited for the task.

Among them, cobalt corresponds to lightness, which doesn't need much explanation.

And mithril is about arrogance, said to be immune to all magical effects, isn't this just the legendary anti-magic armor?

However, after much contemplation, Fang Mo ultimately chose resonant ender metal, because of its characteristics of bumbling magic and the gentlemanly demeanor, and Fang Mo was genuinely curious, if he were to let Ultron seal a creature, and then use a sword to seal Ultron up...

Would this be considered exploiting a bug... or exploiting a trait?

Thinking this, Fang Mo went ahead and directly inscribed the power of resonant ender into this body.

"Alright, done."

After doing all this, Fang Mo patted the chest of the body: "Use this for now, when this body gets worn out, I'll make you a new one."

"Don't worry, I will cherish this body."

Ultron waited for a long time, and now he was clearly getting a bit restless, not catching the deeper meaning in Fang Mo's words, directly inserting a cable into his head and starting operating.

Soon, the Regeneration Cradle Lit up with a gentle blue light.

Ultron carefully placed his new body inside, then sat beside it and waited.

A slow progress bar appeared on the display, and as this progress bar advanced, Ultron's original body... that is, this suit of iron armor, its red indicator lights on the eyes slowly dimmed.

There's not much else to say about this process.

After waiting for a while, the progress bar above was already full.

However, that new body did not show any response; instead, Ultron's original body raised its head again.

"What's happening?"

Realizing something was wrong, Ultron immediately walked over to the Regeneration Cradle and began to manipulate the display screen in confusion: "Why am I still here? Something seems off. Shouldn't I have succeeded already?"

"It seems like there was a problem."

Upon seeing this, the Ancient One also turned to Fang Mo and asked, "Did you endow him with too much magic?"

"Ah? That can't be..."

Fang Mo scratched his head, his face flashing a guilty expression for a moment.

In fact, using the Regeneration Cradle to print a new body and such had been mentioned in the original story. Theoretically, this could indeed be successful.

But after Fang Mo's meddling, adding adamantine and crystal matrix ingots, and then enchanting a bunch of chaotic stuff, this had completely deviated from the original setting. Nobody knew what might happen, so Fang Mo began to worry at this moment that he might have really messed things up.

"Damn... There must be a problem somewhere!"

After fiddling around for a while, Ultron was still unable to solve the problem and became a bit impatient, punching the Regeneration Cradle and making a "clang" sound.

"Cough cough, Ultron, don't panic yet."

Seeing Ultron's action, out of guilt, Fang Mo quickly went over to console him: "This must be fine by design, probably just some minor issues..."

"I suspect there's a problem with the consciousness matrix."

Ultron appeared somewhat agitated: "The internal structure of the crystal matrix is too complicated, causing the internal energy frequency to be unadjustable to a mode I can carry, so it can't accommodate my consciousness."

"How about we think of another solution?"

Fang Mo stroked his chin.

"The components inside this body are too advanced; I might not be able to use it for the time being," Ultron couldn't help saying: "It seems I can only wait for you to defeat Thanos and then refer to the structure inside the Mind Stone, what a pity..."

"The Mind Stone?"

Hearing this, Fang Mo suddenly realized.

Indeed, in the original story, Ultron's forehead was embedded with an Infinity Stone, which seemed to be an indispensable part of the opponent's consciousness, but now that stone was in Thanos's possession.

"This won't do."

Thinking of this, Fang Mo subconsciously frowned.

He definitely couldn't give Ultron the Infinity Stone; he still needed it to snap his fingers: "Isn't there any substitute..."

However, just as he said this.

Fang Mo suddenly felt a movement in his storage space.

Focusing his consciousness inward, Fang Mo discovered a dark blue bead emitting a faint light, as if it were calling to him.

"This is... the Hogyoku?"

Fang Mo was taken aback, and then subconsciously took out the Hogyoku.

After Fang Mo took out the Hogyoku, its light became even more dazzling, and Fang Mo could even feel a vague consciousness calling to him, wanting to show its power in front of its owner.

"This..."

Feeling this emotion, Fang Mo's face also showed some surprise.

"Hm? What is this?" Ultron beside him also noticed the Hogyoku and turned his head towards Fang Mo with confusion: "Another crystal matrix?"

"Oh, this."

Fang Mo was still thinking about the Hogyoku and unconsciously started to babble: "This is your mom."

"...What?"

However, Fang Mo didn't care about the bewildered Ultron.

He kept examining the Hogyoku in his hands.

In fact, according to the setting of the Bleach, the Hogyoku has its own consciousness. It can absorb the wishes around it and materialize them, just like how Aizen used the Hogyoku to create Arrancars in the original story, breaking the original limits of life.

"Hmm..."

Fang Mo gazed at the Hogyoku in his hand for a moment, then started to gather spiritual particles: "Forget it, let's just try it out."

As a continuous stream of spiritual particles was extracted from the weapon inside his body, the Hogyoku in Fang Mo's hand lit up with a strange black-purple glow. Suddenly, something sounded like it shattered, and Ultron nearby fell to the ground in response.

As for the new body in the Regeneration Cradle, it also opened its eyes at the same time.

"Did it actually work?"

Seeing Ultron wake up, Fang Mo was also a bit surprised. It seems he had underestimated this Hogyoku.

"It worked..."

Ultron slowly sat up in the Regeneration Cradle, murmuring as he looked down at his hands: "It actually worked..."

"Yes, the surgery was very successful."

Seeing this, Fang Mo also smiled, planning to say a few words to Ultron: "Congratulations, you've now become..."

However, before he could finish, a system prompt suddenly rang in Fang Mo's mind after a long absence.
