22. The life that was created - Ultron

Time is always fleeting, especially when you are busy with something important, time passes faster than you can imagine, and in a blink of an eye, the preparation of smart people is the last step.

With the decryption of the alien technology brought back by Cyber one after another, coupled with the technology sharing of the Wakandans, the scientific and technological level of the isolated island of civilization has improved very quickly, and as the most intuitive embodiment of scientific and technological improvement, in the utopian world, the research and development of many new technologies by technology users has entered the real practical stage from theory.

For example, in Tony's giant laboratory at this time, the super-large thinking matrix that Barry and Parker have built up little by little.

It looks like a complex metal labyrinth, made up of thousands of supercomputing chips that can be separated and reassembled, and these chips are placed together according to special modules to form the brains of the soon-to-be-born super artificial intelligence.

They call this soon-to-be-born technological life "UItron", which means a new era of mechanical life, and of course, we can just call it "Ultron".

Dr. Banner wears special goggles and uses a miniature laser pointer to draw a special circuit set on the mechanical chip, in this way, to realize the shackles of physical thinking and operation, which sounds a little incredible, but in fact, even if it is the original, it is the most classic "Three Laws of Robots", which is also engraved in the thinking of every intelligent robot through the means of physical blessing.

Physical encryption is always the safest means to deal with these mechanical thinking life, so far, no mechanical life can break through this limitation engraved in the "bones", and as a super-large artificial intelligence that is about to manage a third of the new world, its thinking shackles are 120 times that of ordinary artificial intelligence, and 10 times that of advanced artificial intelligence like Jarvis.

Parker, Barry, Banner, Tony, and Dr. Pym, the five smartest men in the world, have racked their brains to fuse their amazing intelligence together to create unimaginably complex internal rules for this unborn mechanical life, which can be used to restrain it and prevent it from falling into a tendency to destroy and self-destruct.

This is necessary because giving machines real intelligence to life is always a very risky thing, and no one knows what they will eventually develop without the guidance of a soul.

Even Mr. Jarvis, the most advanced artificial intelligence available at the moment, undergoes a monthly "psychological" assessment from Tony himself, and as soon as a problem is discovered, Tony will immediately start to modify Jarvis's algorithm.

While his companions were busy with hard work, Tony, who had grown a mustache, walked into Professor Charles's office to carry out the second phase of psychological counseling, which he was currently in.

Tony sat opposite Professor Charles, he didn't see him for a few days, the professor's spirit looked a little bad, this is normal, as one of the remaining big forces in the human world, the overall defense of the mutant country's utopia, almost from the hands of Charles alone, every day to conduct a mental scan of the whole country, for the professor, it is also a very hard thing.

However, with the Mind Gem in hand, he only needed to rest for a few days before he would fully recover his energy.

"Mr. Tony, you look in good spirits. ”

The professor smiled mildly at Tony, "It seems that Wanda's efforts and I are still bearing fruit, will the nightmare in my mind still appear recently?"

"Well, I haven't heard that damn sound in a week. ”

Tony put his arms on the table and said to the professor sincerely, "I really appreciate you and the little witch for your help, actually, I feel like I'm ready to be discharged." ”

He made a joke, and after the two of them had talked about something else, Tony coughed lightly and turned to the point.

He looked at the professor's cane studded with yellow gems, and he whispered:

"Satisfy my curiosity, Professor, is this Mind Gem any other use than being able to open a super-large energy shield, reflect any mind control magic, and greatly strengthen your psychic power?"

Faced with this question, the professor first drank a cup of hot tea, and then said slowly:

"Actually, it's hard work to hold the Mind Gem, Tony, this gem is not as stubborn as the Soul Gem, but it affects my thinking with its own thoughts, for example, I often see some vague pictures in meditation, sometimes these pictures will eventually become reality, sometimes it is like deliberately sparing people's minds, I think this is the price of holding it. ”

He breathed a sigh of relief:

"I have to be very strong in my heart so that I don't get affected by it, and frankly, it's hard. ”

"For example?"

Tony asked curiously, and the professor glanced at him and narrowed his eyes:

"For example, I vaguely saw last night that you and your friends were doing something very dangerous, and it had something to do with the Mind Gem, Tony... Say what you want to do. ”

Tony was a little embarrassed to be directly called out of his inner thoughts, but soon, he adjusted his mood and did not answer the professor's question immediately, but turned his gaze to the black, white and yellow Scottish Fold lying on the professor's lap.

The cat seemed to sense Tony's gaze, and it lazily flicked its tail, covering its face, and lay in its master's arms, purring, as if longing for comfort.

"Mr. Morty, how long are you going to hide?"

Tony suddenly said that Morty was the name of the professor's cat, which was very old, and it had moved from the old world to utopia with the professor, and in this new world, it seemed to have a new vitality.

However, in the face of Tony's call, the sleeping cat didn't seem to understand the words at all, which made Tony's eyes widen:

"Do you want me to expose the fact that you secretly used my account to buy top cat food for you and your girlfriend?"

"Meow!"

Mr. Morty jumped up from the professor's lap with his teeth and claws, and pounced on Tony with agility, but was easily grasped by the latter, and a bright red mechanical armor spread out on Tony's arm in the form of liquid, easily grasping the obviously problematic cat.

And this incident made the professor's face change, he is a really smart man, although he may not pay too much attention to his pet because of habit, but after Tony broke through this matter, he immediately understood the seriousness of this matter.

"Morty, can you understand us?"

The professor motioned for Tony to put the old cat on the table, and he looked at his cat seriously, the latter's eyes were a little evasive, but in the face of the professor, he finally crouched down on the table, licking his paws with his tongue, and nodded reluctantly.

"When did it start?"

The professor asked again, and the old cat meowed, and Tony said for it, "Anyway, on the first day of my treatment, I noticed the weirdness of this cat, Professor, you probably didn't even realize that this cat has been in contact with your gem for too long... The gem gives it wisdom! true wisdom!"

"It's... It's just unimaginable!"

The professor looked down at his yellow jeweled cane again, and he whispered, "How could I be so negligent... It seems that I can't hold the gem directly like this in the future, if it can give wisdom on a large scale, then... It could well be a disaster. ”

"Don't worry, Professor!"

Tony hurriedly said: "This kind of thing doesn't happen often, except for Mr. Morty, there is no wild animal like him, lying on the mind gem every day to sleep, and I am here this time because I have another thing to ask you, about the new use of the mind gem." ”

"I'm going to do an experiment with it!"

Tony pressed his wrist a few times, and a small projection appeared in front of the professor, which was all the materials of Project Ultron: "This is a large artificial intelligence commissioned by Fury to make me, it is called..."

"It's called Ultron! I know the plan. ”

The professor put on his glasses, reached for the virtual plan in front of him, and whispered, "I was there when they discussed this plan, and I voted... Support vote, I know its significance, it is related to the future of human civilization, and it is an initiative worth trying. ”

"That's good!"

Tony rubbed his hands, "We've done all the initial work, Professor, we need your Mind Gem now, and I'm going to see if it can give this cold machine real wisdom, just like it did to Mr. Morty." ”

"Mechanical life?"

The professor hesitated for a moment, then looked at Tony, "You plan to 'create life'? In mythology, that's a power that only gods have!"

"And we're fighting the gods right now..."

Tony spread his hands and looked at the professor sincerely: "Please, professor, we are here to win, and for the future of mankind, give it a try, I can guarantee that I will monitor all this throughout the whole process, if anything goes wrong, I will immediately abort the project, the mechanical life only needs to cut off the power and die, we can control it completely!"

“... Give me some time, Tony. ”

The professor rubbed his cane, and he took off his glasses: "I'll give you an answer before the afternoon." ”

"Okay, I'm looking forward to your joining, Professor. ”

Tony stood up and strode out of the office, and after the door closed, the professor's stern gaze fell on Morty, who was trying to escape:

"Now, it's time for us to talk about what you're hiding from me, Mr. Morty. ”

"Meow~"

—————————

That night, everyone gathered around Tony's extravagant large projection table, the fastest Barry holding the professor's psychic staff in his hand, he glanced back at the others, and when Tony nodded at him, Barry's figure turned into a bolt of lightning, disappeared in place, and then reappeared.

The yellow cane had been inserted into the reserved connector.

"Alright, I'm going to turn on the switch!"

Dr. Banner stood in front of the operating table, and the others eagerly looked at the closed mind matrix in front of them, even Dr. Pym, who was supposedly uninterested.

"Buzz"

The switch was pressed, and the current flowed into the super-large thinking matrix in an instant, and the energy that stimulated the mind gem was also completely supplied, and no changes could be seen on the surface, until Tony directly projected the current activity of the thinking matrix on the projection, and a blue line composed of a network like a nebula appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

It was a completely three-dimensional system, and the blue electricity appeared every second and then disappeared, making the scene look beautiful.

"That's its brain!"

Parker said in a dreamy voice, "Look at those currents, it's thinking!"

"It's just the most rudimentary mind, and that's not what we want!"

Tony's face didn't show much excitement, he glanced back at Dr. Banner, who once again raised the stimulation of the Mind Gem, and the next moment, orange-yellow energy began to escape from the core of the brain, like ink dripping into water, quickly staining the blue mind network into a more brilliant orange-yellow.

And the brain, which was made up of electricity, seemed to be unable to withstand this force, and it began to sway, began to tremble, and even began to disintegrate.

"Bang Bang Bang"

Connecting sparks erupted in the closed matrix of minds, and Barry's panicked voice rang out: "Stop the energy supply, God, it's collapsing!"

"No! don't stop!

Dr. Pym, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke at this moment: "It's like the birth of life, we have to let it fully revive in one go, stop now, it will... Brain dead!"

"This..."

Looking at the rapidly collapsing energy system, Tony gritted his teeth, and he looked back at Banner: "Just follow what Uncle Pym said, increase the energy stimulation!"

"Bang"

The energy stimulation of the Mind Gem was raised to the extreme at this moment, and Barry, who had been paying attention to the Mind Matrix, was desperate to see a yellow light light light light up in the closed laboratory, like an explosion, completely overloading those tightly guarded mind chips in an instant, and even the lights of the entire laboratory were extinguished at this moment.

"No! ”

Barry looked at the completely extinguished lab in front of him, he looked at his hair and made a lost sound, and the next moment, after Mr. Jarvis restarted the power, Tony, Banner and Dr. Pym looked at the projection at the same time, and Parker turned his head like a chicken choked by the neck and made a coughing sound.

"No! we succeeded!"

Tony turned proudly, spread his hands, and behind him, on the large projection, the "brains" composed entirely of yellow lines had been reassembled in a unique way, the yellow lightning bolts beating wildly at those thinking nodes, as magnificent as the nebula that was waking up, and those beating lightning bolts, in the eyes of these Frankensteins, symbolized the spark of wisdom.

"We have created the life of this era! It was born!"
