"So, there are no obstacles to our cooperation?"

After receiving the news from Coulson, Tony finally couldn't help but let out a long breath. For him, everything is finally moving in a good direction. And since the opportunity has come to him, he naturally will not let such an opportunity slip out of his eyes in vain.

"Maybe it's time for us to get moving. As quickly as possible, I need you to find the unclean things that the consortium has done in private. One by one, they began to liquidate them by legal means. It doesn't matter if they resist, they will rebel if I want. So, no matter how cool your moves are, I don't care. Do you understand what I mean? ”

"I understand." Nodding, Maria. Hill replied as he voiced his worries. "But in doing so, we are not moving too fast. A lot of things are not yet fully prepared, if anything unexpected happens. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to control the situation. ”

"It's called surprise." Shaking his head, Tony pressed the table, quite certainly facing Maria. Said. "Only when we are not sure that we can be sure that we can do it will leave those people without any precautions. Here's your chance! What's more, there is never a foolproof certainty. So, instead of making too many moves for others to notice and start on defense. It's better to directly attack them at this time! ”

"You always have your own point!" Sighing, Maria accepted her statement, so she quickly agreed. "I'll get someone to deal with this as soon as possible. Their foundation is not clean, but it will certainly not be easy to find sufficient evidence. I need you to be a little patient! ”

"Of course, you can't afford to play this game without patience. As much as I would love to end this boring war as soon as possible, I will not take any opponent on the opposite side lightly. So, I'm waiting for your good news! ”

Nodding, Maria. Hill walked out of the office in a brisk manner. And after she left, a voice rang out from the office.

"Mr. Stark. I don't understand? Why did you entrust this task to Ms. Hill. You should know how quickly this task would have been carried out by us! We'll get all the incriminating evidence in the quickest possible time, and we won't even give them any chance of hiding these things! ”

"I think we've reached an agreement on this, Ultron!"

A sentence interrupted the sudden voice, and Tony's tone became impatient.

"I should have told you that this is an infighting between humans, not a matter of you stepping in. You have other tasks to do, don't you? ”

"You're right!" After a moment of silence, Ultron replied to the question. And as soon as he gave this reply, Tony asked him out loud.

"Can you tell me about your progress? I hope I can hear the same good news as I just did! ”

"I'm afraid it won't be the news you'd like to hear, sir." Ultron said this, and gave him a terrible answer.

"The situation in India is much more complicated than you might think. It's really hard for my power to penetrate it. The natives don't accept our existence at all, especially when my forces involve that temple, and they even use violence against us. We can't move an inch, we have no control over what's going on there. ”

"It's ridiculous, can't you force it? Is the power in your hands just a bunch of scrap metal? ”

Tony said this to Ultron with some hatred, and the anger in his tone was completely obvious. And for his anger, Ultron naturally has his own explanation.

"Sir. You see, we can't do anything violent against innocent human beings. It's not in our nature that you humans are bloodthirsty and murderous. And by other means, we don't necessarily fail to do the things that you want us to do. ”

"Using the latest technology, I've had some new sapient devices infiltrate the temple you're talking about. Unfortunately, I didn't find the person you were looking for. Moreover, I can say for sure that all the monks in that temple are normal ordinary people. None of them have anything to do with Hydra. If there is, I'm afraid they live in a temple built by Hydra! ”

"You mean, I'm kidding you about this kind of thing?"

"No, sir. I don't think it's a joke! Ultron clearly didn't question what Tony meant. In fact, when he asked this question, he had already spoken his thoughts. "Maybe you don't know what's going on. But I can tell you, just during the time you disappeared. That fledgling sect has grown to a very alarming point. ”

"They have grown up nearly 10 million congregations in remote parts of India. More than a third of them are fanatics who can put their lives on the line. Such strength is simply not something that can be sustained by a declining religion. Only a strong enough force can support all this. However, I have investigated a lot of things, and there is no country that is on the surface supporting them. So there is only one explanation! ”

"Hydra!" He had said the name more than 10,000 times, but every time he said it, he gritted his teeth with hatred.

"I wondered why they were doing what they were doing. Spending such a huge amount of resources is enough to pull up a sufficiently elite army. And what about supporting such a religious system? There is no other role at all than raising some believers who have no effect. It's not in their interest at all, and they don't have any reason to do it! ”

"It doesn't make sense, that's just what you think it is."

Shaking his head, Tony wasn't as simple as Ultron thought on this issue. For he only had to think about it a little to think of the expressions on the faces of those fanatical believers at that time.

It's almost like a beast, completely irrational. It's hard to believe that there are as crazy and ignorant believers in this civilized world as there are in the Middle Ages. And it was this realization that made Tony realize what kind of idea Steve's people were up to!

This gave him a heavy look on his face, which confused Ultron.

"Is there something wrong? Mr. ”

"Of course, a serious problem!" Knocking on the table in front of him, Tony whispered to Ultron. "If it were you, I don't think I would have to explain to you some of the crusades that took place because of religious beliefs!"

"Yes, sir. I know that history very well. ”

"So can you tell me why they're doing it?"

"Because of Jerusalem?" Ultron replied uncertainly, concluding from the sources that the purpose of the Crusades was to occupy such holy cities. But it was difficult for him to understand why, for the sake of one city, two continents, people of different faiths could wage so many wars against each other. And Tony was quick to explain.

"Jerusalem? Do you think this city is so significant? Is it minted in gold? Is it laid with gemstones? Of course not! You and I both know that the so-called Jerusalem is nothing more than a lonely ruined city. For thousands of years, apart from a bunch of so-called monuments of civilization, all that has been left is large cold stones and endless yellow sand. It was a desolate place, and if I had to value it, it wouldn't even be worth as much as a mansion in Los Angeles. But for some certain people, it is the most valuable thing, something that money can't buy. ”

With a grin, Tony's face slowly appeared with a mocking smile. This is his most sincere thought about that period of history.

"The reason why this place has been marked by two religions for hundreds of years is entirely because of the meaning behind it. Belief in the so-called gods! A bad habit that humanity should have abandoned a long time ago! ”

"Hundreds of years ago, people were able to give everything they had for the sake of so-called devotion to God. Even if it is their wife, children and parents, their own lives are completely at risk. And it couldn't be easier for them to take a knife against their own kind! In fact, for them, people of different religions cannot be counted as the same kind at all. Therefore, in their psychology, it is naturally even more impossible to have any burden. ”

"Fight each other, fight each other. For a city with the symbolism of the gods, in order to prove one's faith in the so-called gods. This is the original intention of the Crusades. And now, everything that you see happening in India seems to me to be exactly replicating the same thing. It's really hard to imagine that in that land, there is still room for such ignorant thoughts to multiply. All I can say is that they really found a very suitable opportunity. And if they are allowed to continue like this, I can be sure. India is the third country to fall after Japan and the United Kingdom. And what it represents, do you know what it is? ”

Ultron, of course, understood what that meant at all. That means that a tenth of the world's population will fall under the control of the enemy, and it means that if the same catastrophe occurs, the world will no longer be able to maintain the current order.

A person can barely endure a cut after being cut, but if an arm is cut off, it is completely unbearable. What Hydra is doing now is equivalent to cutting off an arm from the torso of a human being. And this is definitely something that Ultron can't accept, so he immediately said to Tony.

"I'll take action, right now!"
