Michael suddenly appeared in the doorway, and the atmosphere in the hall froze slightly for a few seconds. Wanda hid her hand behind her back and quietly used her strength to undo the Christmas tree conjured by the chaos magic on the side against the wall, silently hoping that the boss didn't notice.

Her instincts told her that her boss would never like to see her use magic in such a "meaningless" place.

Until Pietro awkwardly snorted and said, "Ha, boss, you still ...... yourself at such a late hour." Come here in person."

As soon as he spoke, he drew the contempt of everyone like idiots.

Michael's gaze looked indifferently at the people in front of the sofa. Daisy reacted quickly, did not hesitate and even sold her teammates a little skillfully, pointed at Gwen and said, "She! She just threw it. ”

Gwen glared at her viciously and complained about her unrighteousness, and then said hesitantly, "Uh, that...... It was an accident, an accident. I didn't expect ......"

Her voice grew quieter, and no one could hear what she said in the last two words.

Michael looked around blankly, his eyes swept over the spider silk ornaments in the hall, at the flowery fir tree, and finally on the noisy balls on the doorframe.

"Uh, okay." Daisy held up her hand, "These...... It was my idea. Because it's Christmas after all, I don't think we have anything to do for the time being, so we might as well have a party or something......

Well, it feels like a mess on visual inspection. Daisy said in her heart. She had a hunch that it must be inevitable to criticize and educate, and if she didn't do it, she would have to be punished a little, such as deducting her salary or increasing the burden of training......

"It's nicely furnished." Michael said lightly.

Didn't you say it when you saw it...... Eh, wait, did he just use the word "not bad"?

Not only Daisy's eyes widened in surprise, but everyone cast surprised looks.

What's the situation, the boss took the wrong medicine

"Have fun."

With that, Michael stopped and turned to walk out. Only before he left the door did he make one last gesture to Wanda: "Witch, come here." ”

"Oh."

Wanda responded, got up and walked out. As she passed by Daisy, she winked at her and silently said "come on" to her with lips and gestures. Wanda gave her an angry look, too lazy to pay attention to her.

......

"I've seen your previous mission report." Michael put his hands in his pockets and said to Wanda, "You mentioned in the quest that the Chaos Mana had skyrocketed in an instant"

"Yes." Wanda nodded, a little confused, "I don't know what happened, but it's as if the power suddenly came out of the depths of the body...... No, it would be more accurate to say that it was drawn from all directions. For a moment, I felt as if I had infinite power within reach, and I could draw on it as long as I reached out......"

"Is that so?"

Wanda looked up at him: "Do you know what's going on?"

"I don't know." Michael replied dryly, "I only know a little about chaos magic. But if there's one thing that proves anything, it's that you still have a lot of potential that you didn't even realize. Draining energy and manipulating chaos magic is as simple as instinct for you, and unlike other mages, it's your talent. If you develop it, you should be able to master this power thoroughly. ”

He patted Wanda on the shoulder.

"If there's anything else in your body, tell me. Let's go back to the party if nothing else, Merry Christmas. ”

When he said "Merry Christmas," his usual tense tone seemed to loosen up a little. It's just an ordinary blessing, and somehow it's inexplicably reassuring to hear him say it.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this factor that Wanda suddenly asked with a hot head: "So, Michael...... Do you have any Christmas arrangements?"

Michael, who was about to walk away, paused and turned half sideways.

"Nothing special. How"

"That maybe...... I'm just thinking...... If you don't have anything else special to date, can you ...... with me? We...... Let's go have a meal or something......"

Michael moved his eyebrows.

"No, I mean Pietro and Gwen together...... You know, a Christmas dinner or something......"

"I'll see what time I have next." He came down and walked down the aisle.

Wanda stood in place, stunned for a moment.

He actually agreed

Well...... So is this the courage to finally muster up the courage to speak out?

Somewhere.

The robotic body lies in a transparent cradle, and several mechanical arms hovering directly above it. The laser beam slid down its streamlined, smooth body, outlining lines of red light.

The pitch-black shadow slowly stepped out of the darkness, its steps heavy as a plumb hammer falling to the ground.

The Destroyer armor from Asgard, and it is Ultron who inhabits it.

To be precise, this is no longer the previous Ultron, but a new intelligence born from the fragments of the program, but its program architecture and code are still the same as before, like a continuation of the soul.

The previous version of Ultron was indeed completely destroyed, but the last remaining fragment of the program left a relatively slightly complete fragment when it hacked into the Iron Man armor system. However, it is only a fragment after all, and it stands to reason that it should soon be discovered, cleaned, and completely eradicated in Tony Stark's subsequent cleaning operations.

But apparently he didn't. Not only was this remnant program not discovered, but he was reborn as a continuation of Ultron's soul, and remained inhabited by the Iron Man suit's system without being discovered. It is very difficult to do this even for Ultron, which is fully functional and fully programmed, let alone such a fragment of the program that has lost its autonomous consciousness. Truth be told, even the new Ultron himself didn't figure out how he survived, it was like he had a guardian angel in the dark.

Although the Destroyer was originally created as Odin's armor, no one has worn it in years. Asgard later created a remote control device for The Destroyer, which allowed the Rider to remotely control it through a magic headband. Although the link device was created through magic, Ultron unexpectedly discovered that his program could also be hacked. So he used this loophole to transfer from Iron Man armor to the Destroyer armor.

And now, he's building a whole new creation, something different. Now that he's almost finished, only one last element remains.

All laser beams stopped working, and the red streaks seemed to be imprinted into the mechanical body, and the red glow gradually dissipated. The last mechanical arm picked up a golden stone with its slender knuckles, approached the body inch by inch, and embedded the stone in his forehead.

The Primordial Mindstone, an Infinity Primordial Stone extracted from Loki's Scepter.

The moment the rough stone was inserted, a strong golden light erupted like a sun. The machine snapped open its eyes, and there was a golden glint in it.
