Chapter 1873: Waking Up, Which Side Are You On?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Hm… Fine, Luke himself had just finished conning the other party; he was at least aware of his own behavior.

People nowadays were indeed gullible.

Tony glanced at everyone. “If we don’t do this, we’ll be trapped in a protracted battle with Ultron. The chance of losing everything is almost 100%. If we choose to take this risk this time, we will at least have a 50% chance of getting a powerful teammate.”

Most of the people present were tempted.

In fact, given that Dr. Banner, Natasha, and Hawkeye were helping Tony out, it was clear that they agreed with the plan.

Luke was inclined to support Tony, but his head also hurt when he thought of how the tycoon was a magnet for trouble. What if… an even fiercer villain boss appeared?

For someone who prioritized safety first, he would rather have a few more minutes to think about it.

The speed at which his brain worked was equivalent to an ordinary person pondering the matter for more than an hour. It was enough for him to weigh most of the gains and losses.

At that moment, a red notification popped up on the monitor screen. “Severe depletion of energy!”

Clearly, the power had been cut for too long.

Tony’s expression turned ugly as his hands flew over the control interface for a few seconds. “There’s not enough power, and an unknown anomaly has appeared with the perfect body. The schematic might not be able to wake it up.”

He lunged at the Regeneration Cradle and plugged in the power source again.

But even with the power restored, there was no improvement with the perfect body.

A series of notifications popped up on the screen, and the progress bar finally increased from 4% to 5%.

Tony and Dr. Banner had already started working on the interface again to try and solve the problem.

Luke couldn’t help.

It was Tony and Dr. Banner who had created the activation program. It was impossible for Luke to figure out the underlying theory in such a short period of time.

Suddenly, a man with a bright red cape charged in. “Move, let me do it!”

Tony turned around and saw the person jump onto the Regeneration Cradle, and immediately cursed. “WTF?!”

It was none other than Thor, the God of Thunder.

He raised one hand, and white lightning appeared in the air as it gathered around the Mj?lnir hammer.

Stunned, Dr. Banner stretched out his hand. “Wait!”

Pietro had pulled the plug before the activation program was completed, and the most important underlying control program had not yet been inputted.

Until this process was completed, who knew if the awakened perfect body would become a second Ultron?

But… it was too late.

Thor, who had always been quicker to use his hands than his brain, had already swung the hammer down, and lightning hit the Regeneration Cradle.

Boom! Zi! Zi! Zi!

The entire Regeneration Cradle was enveloped in white lightning.

A notification popped up on the screen. “Warning: Energy overload.”

As if injected with chicken blood, the 5% progress bar increased to 10%, 20%… 90%, 100%!

Thor suddenly drew back his hammer, and the scene fell silent.

Everybody, including Luke, subconsciously held their breaths for one moment.

What thing would Tony and Thor have created?

Boom!

The Regeneration Cradle shattered, and a dark red figure shot out.

Thor, who was standing on the cradle, was knocked back ten meters and fell to the floor. Even the Mj?lnir hammer fell from his hand.

But nobody was looking at him. Even Thor himself immediately straightened and looked at the dark red figure that had broken out of the cradle and was standing amidst the wreckage.

Its body was mostly dark red with black patches on it, and there was a light yellow gem the size of a bean between its eyebrows.

It slowly raised its head and looked at the people around it, as well as this… brand new world.

Then, it lunged at Thor.

Thor reflexively grabbed it with both hands and tossed it to the side.

The dark red figure slammed into the wall on one side, but didn’t slow down at all.

The next moment, the protective layer of the base opened in front of it to reveal a dark blue ocean world.

It didn’t say anything, but simply looked curiously and longingly at the scene outside that was brimming with life.

Steve leapt lightly to a spot not far from Thor and raised his shield.

Thor suddenly raised his hand to warn him against acting rashly.

The being raised one hand, as if to touch a fish swimming leisurely outside the transparent wall, but suddenly paused.

A moment later, it looked away, and its body instantly turned all black except for its head and hands.

It turned around and flew back lightly.

Luke raised an eyebrow. This “person” was indeed unique. It didn’t even make a sound as it flew.

There was no way to track its movements with Elementary Sound Wave.

It was like an uncertain existence between illusion and reality.

Sure enough, something which Tony and Thor made would be strange. Luke glanced at the two ‘young masters’ and grumbled inwardly.

At that moment, it flew back and landed lightly in front of everyone. It said, “Sorry, that… was a little odd.”

Then, it bowed slightly to Thor, who was two meters away. “Mm, thank you.”

Thor: ???

Its gaze fell on Thor, and its thoughts moved.

A cape appeared out of thin air. A second later, it was complete and fluttering behind the being.

The cloak was similar to Thor’s, except that it wasn’t bright red; it flowed between various colors, which made one a little dizzy looking at it.

Steve asked solemnly, “Thor, you helped create this?”

Thor nodded. “I had a vision. A vortex that sucks in all hope of life. At the center of the vortex was that…”

He pointed at the yellow gem in its head. “The Mind Stone is one of the six Infinity Stones…”

A few minutes later, everybody understood why Thor had taken the initiative to charge up and activate this ‘Vision.’

When Thor had said before that he was going to get help, he had gone to a special place to obtain a ‘vision’ – another way to put it was a ‘prophecy’ or a ‘possible future.’

After experiencing this vision, he knew that Tony was right.

From the sporadic images he saw, neither the Avengers nor the Bat Squad could handle Ultron. It was only with this Vision that this crisis could be averted.

When it came down to it, the source of the fear in the hearts of Ultron, Wanda, Pietro and the Avengers came from the Mind Stone in Vision’s head.

So, as long as Vision was on their side, taking care of Ultron would go from almost impossible to… a 50-50 chance?

That was how Luke interpreted it in his heart.

However, Thor’s ‘vision’ really couldn’t be treated as crazy talk.

This guy was hard-headed and wouldn’t go crazy so easily.

Steve couldn’t help but look at Vision. “Wait, you… you’re on our side?”

Vision didn’t answer directly, but said, “I’m on the side of life, but Ultron wants to destroy all life here. I can only destroy it.”

Luke:?Thank god, finally, an A.I. with feelings.

That was right, this Vision was a living being, not some robot.

Luke sensed that it actually had mental fluctuations.

Although these thought waves were more cryptic and strange, like a ‘foreign language,’ it was still a trait exclusive to living things.
