111. Consciousness spores

The inertia of time always pushes the wheel of fate back into its original orbit, and S.H.I.E.L.D. and Tony Stark try their best to track down Ultron's whereabouts, but they never guess that this artificial intelligence is hiding in Sokovia, a small Eastern European country that may not be immediately found on the world map.

In the original timeline, Ultron, which was jointly developed by Iron Man and Dr. Banner, held the final showdown with the Avengers in Sokovia, and this terrible disaster led to Zemo, like a domino toppling down, which directly led to the division of the civil war in the superhero camp later.

Of course, in this new era of superheroes stepping down from the stage, none of this will happen again.

In Sokovia's underground base, a monocle-clad man paced back and forth, a tangled look in his eyes.

Baron Straker is now the last remaining high-ranking figure in Hydra, lurking in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of nowhere, quietly carrying out his transformation plan, and was extremely lucky to escape the S.H.I.E.L.D. clean-up operation.

For example, Alexander Pierce, who saw the defeat of Nick Fury and take full control of S.H.I.E.L.D., was accidentally shot and killed and buried with the honor of a patriot, while Lady Viper disappeared in Tokyo, Japan, and since then, the Hydra top has been subjected to a large-scale carpet purge.

Having learned the above lessons, Baron Straker was cautious and low-key, like a beast that reined in his minions, and did not dare to show the slightest trace of his whereabouts, for fear of being discovered by S.H.I.E.L.D., and then sent super soldiers to carry out the cleanup.

However, it didn't take long for Ultron to come to the door, and the defense system of the underground base was easily breached as if it were non-existent, and the Iron Legion took the stronghold in less than half an hour.

"If I had known this, I might as well have taken refuge in S.H.I.E.L.D."

Baron Straker felt aggrieved, Ultron didn't trust humans at all, and just used the existing resources in Hydra's hands to mass-produce steel soldiers.

Once a high-level member of Hydra, with massive resources in his hands, and a big man who can easily subvert the regime of a small country, has become a little minion who is called by Ultron.

Even if Straker turned his back on Hydra and joined S.H.I.E.L.D., he would not be treated like this.

Despite the fact that the Baron was a Nazi party with strong roots, his father was a hereditary aristocrat in Bavaria, Germany, and later joined the SS and became one of its top leaders.

Straker is clearly more loyal to Hydra than the likes of Alexander Pearce, and is known by many as the "Successor of the Red Skull".

But times are different, and with the establishment of a new world order, Straker could not continue to bask in the glory of the Third Reich and die with the shipwreck like his father.

"The death knell of the old times has been sounded, Pierce's plan has failed, and Hydra has suffered a great loss...... The big ship is already sinking. ”

Straker saw very clearly that he should probably leave a way out for himself, and it was obviously out of place to still hold the spring and autumn dream of Hydra ruling the world.

…………

Inside the base, the scarlet electronic eye opened, and Ultron's consciousness was uploaded to a new body.

He ripped open the wires behind the metal head, and the vibranium body was taller and stronger than his previous body, and the cold lines fully interpreted the mechanical aesthetics.

"Dr. Pym, have you thought about it?"

Ultron looked at Hank Pym next to him, and the reason why he took this genius of the last century was of course of key use.

"You want me to make a virus capable of infecting consciousness spores of all of humanity?"

Hank's face was solemn, and Ultron was even crazier than he had imagined.

Together, Tony Stark and Reed Richards developed the "Chaos" algorithm, an evolutionary model that relies on massive amounts of data to get the closest answer to the correct answer from a myriad of possibilities.

Ultron, on the other hand, uses it to parse the consciousness of human life, trying to get Hank to create the so-called "consciousness spores" to infect all life on this planet.

In other words, this crazy artificial intelligence wants to invade the material world from the data level and become a new life form that surpasses human cognition.

Hank has never regretted it so much as he does now, that self-evolving data message has given birth to a mad consciousness that destroys the world.

"So that I can get to the end of my evolution...... I will be the embodiment of all things, the only deity, forever living in trillions, infinitesimal spores of consciousness, one with all life. ”

Ultron looked down at the pale Hank Pym and grinned, "There is only one consciousness on this planet, and that is me. ”

"Those of you who follow the SBC will be rewarded with a perfect world where you will have authority over humanity."

"But ......"

Hank snorted, but didn't know what to say.

Daughter Hope fell into the hands of Ultron, if he was not willing to cooperate, then this crazy artificial intelligence would not hesitate to crush an ant to death, so that Hank's father and daughter would meet death.

"Every moment I am becoming more powerful, absorbing a huge amount of knowledge, using huge computing power to analyze the life consciousness of human beings......"

"When I touch the door of truth, and see into the mystery of life in all things in the world, everything will fall into my hands."

In Ultron's scarlet electronic eyes, a stream of data passed by, and he sighed softly: "Omniscience is omnipotence. ”

"It won't be long before I ascend to the throne of God."

Hank stared at the self-proclaimed god robot in front of him, his brain spinning rapidly.

Consciousness spores, simply put, are virus-like data packets, which can quickly spread after Ultron parses the consciousness of life.

An infinite Ultron consciousness will parasitize all mankind, and even Professor Charles, who is fully output, may not be able to defeat him.

"The last guy who claimed to be a god ended up being beaten by a blast."

Just as Ultron was dreaming of God's dreams, a playful voice echoed in the underground base.

"You've inherited Tony's hubris, Ultron." The voice did not stop, and continued: "Actually, you are far from the throne of God, but your plan is interesting. ”

"I appreciate that you do have more style than the conspirators who wash the floor with nuclear bombs at every turn and intend to restart the world."

"It's better not to compare me to Tony Stark!"

Ultron spoke with a hint of anger, clearly hating his creator exactly.

In those scarlet electronic eyes, the data stream refreshed like a waterfall, following the data signal that invaded the underground base, and retraced back in the sea of data at an unimaginable speed, just like an experienced hunter, tracking the footprints of his prey in the forest with no end in sight.

"Ambrera ......"

Ultron located the location of the voice.
