Chapter 40: The Beginning of War
The second five days have passed, and Ultron has not made any moves.
"We can't wait like this!" Tony Stark spoke after a dinner, and after ten days of torment, Stark looked so tired that he didn't even bother to go out for maintenance, and his gray hair on his temples was unabashedly exposed.
"Everybody's waiting." Steve said, "Ultron will come eventually, be patient." β
"Patience?" Stark frantically for no apparent reason, stood up and snapped, "How patient am I going to be?" Wait patiently for Ultron to create an army of hundreds of thousands? And then trample us into meatloaf in one go? β
"Exaggerated, huh? Where did he go to get hundreds of thousands of troops. Ant-Man Scott grinned.
"It's easy!" Stark's recent pressure is too great, and he doesn't even have a good face in the face of his own people, so he turned his head and twisted his eyebrows and said to Scott: "Ultron controls the network, money is just a set of data for him, a large area of money, coupled with coercion, some people provide him with a steady stream of materials, and we can only wait here, waiting for the robot army under Ultron to increase day by day!" β
"Calm down, Tony." The wasp frowned slightly, then asked, "What do you think you should do?" β
"We have to take the initiative!" Stark looked around at everyone: "Act like before, go around destroying Ultron's production factories and suppress the number of robots produced!" Otherwise, we will not be able to win the war at all in the future! If you really want to be gathered by Ultron with hundreds of thousands of robots, who of you present will survive? Who? Earls? Banner? In short, it's not me! So I'm not going to continue to play any fishing games with you! β
"Hey~hey, dude, it's not that serious." Star-Lord smiled cynically, waved his hand and said, "If there is really a crisis like the one you mentioned, just connect the earth network with the interstellar network, and the programs and intelligence of those robots will be destroyed in an instant, no big deal." β
"Uh-huh." Stark smirked and nodded, as if in agreement. But the next moment, he suddenly changed his face, and replied sarcastically: "Then the earth no longer has any autonomy, and it is casually flattened and kneaded by you cosmos, right?" I guess to the extent that the Earth has not yet broken out of the universe...... In the future, earthlings will be inferior citizens in the universe, right? β
"Neuropathy." Gamora rolled her eyes.
Star-Lord didn't bother to explain, shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking.
"Look, look." Stark spread his finger at Star-Lord, turned his head and glanced at the others, "I'm not wrong, once Earth joins the Cosmic Alliance or something, the result will be to start as an inferior citizen. β
"Ahahahaha." Rocket Raccoon burst into laughter and looked back at Groot. He looked at Stark again, laughed and said, "This guy is so interesting, he doesn't understand anything, but he still thinks he's living in some kind of entertainment?" Also inferior citizens, hahaha......"
"There are no levels in the Star Alliance." Groot said slowly.
Tony Stark's face was a little unbearable, and he pursed his lips tightly, not paying attention to Star-Lord's cosmic people, but looking at Jing Tian and the others. Stiffening his neck, he said, "I will never wait any longer anyway, I will wait for you!" β
"Whatever." Quicksilver Pietro shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, "You're useless anyway, even if Ultron attacks, you won't be able to help." Wearing a suit? I'm afraid you'll be controlled and fire on your own people. β
Quicksilver's words stabbed Stark directly into the sore spot, causing the corners of Stark's eyes to twitch fiercely.
Taking a deep breath, Stark glanced at everyone one by one, and turned around and left without saying a word.
"Stark!" Steve greeted. But it didn't make the other party stop.
"Hey......" Steve sighed, and when he saw Stark gone, he turned back to Pietro and said helplessly, "It's not that you don't know his character." Let's not say a word in the future, there is still a crisis at the moment, and we need to be united. β
"I'm not wrong." Pietro pouted.
"But what do you think of Tony's thoughts?" The Wasp asked, "He has a point, what if Ultron does gather a large army?" β
"Don't worry." Jing Tian spoke: "Ultron will not only attack, it will still cause turmoil around the world and disperse us as before, so you don't need to face Ultron's main army at that time, I can stay." β
"I'll stay too." "I'm not fit to fight in the city, otherwise the damage will be great, so I'm staying here to defend it together," Bruce Banner said. β
"Otherwise, let's stay together." Pyro said worriedly: "In case Ultron really wants to get tens of thousands of troops, I am afraid that the two of you will not be able to deal with it, there are many people and great strength, as for the small fights in other regions, as long as we defeat Ultron, those robots will naturally no longer be a threat." β
"It depends on the situation." Jing Tian clapped his hands: "Then everyone get ready today, and tomorrow we will release the news that 'the suit is about to be completed' to force Ultron to attack immediately." β
"It's fine." Steve bowed.
The crowd chatted for a while, and then dispersed.
On the way back to the room, Steve came over to find Jing Tian and asked with some concern, "How many robots does Ultron have now?" β
Jing Tian turned his head to look at Lucy.
"More than thirty thousand." Lucy was quick to give her answer.
"We've got to fight now." Steve was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.
"It's okay." Jing Tian smiled and patted Steve on the shoulder: "When the time comes, I will take action, and I can easily destroy them." β
"Are you sure?" Steve was stunned.
Jing Tian nodded.
"Okay......" Steve thought for a moment, and then said, "But the plan has to be changed, you can't make a move at the first time, otherwise if it scares Ultron, I'm afraid it will run away, and then all our preparations will be in vain." β
"I shouldn't let Ultron escape." Jing Tian said.
"I'm afraid of some accidents." Steve shook his head: "Let's make a move first, draw Ultron and his army for a while, and then you're going to make a move." β
"Okay." Jing Tian did not continue to plead.
As the day passes, everyone should maintain their weapons; The next morning, under everyone's attention, Jing Tian uploaded a random piece of information to Stark's server.
"Should we get Tony back?" The wasp asked.
"And Thor." Ant-Man Scott answered: "Isn't Thor also a member of the Avengers?" And the combat power is very strong, who has a way to contact him? β
"No need." Steve shook his head: "This battle Stark is restrained at every turn. The Divine Domain probably also has something to deal with, otherwise Sol would have come down to accompany his girlfriend a long time ago. β
"Ultron has received the message." Lucy suddenly spoke: "I have begun to dispatch troops. β
"Going to fight?" Rocket Raccoon jumps off the couch and carries a gun taller than him.
"Not so fast." Jing Tian said with a smile: "Ultron needs time to plan and plan, and it will also take a lot of time for those robots to get here. β
"Okay...... Rocket's two little ears drooped listlessly, and he climbed back into the couch and sat down.
"Zhenweis, take over the network here, call up the satellite footage, and monitor the situation around the world." Jing Tian raised his wrist and commanded.
"Yes, sir." Zhenweis responded, quickly. He took over the network from Friday.
Meanwhile, the interior of the Avengers Building in New York.
"Sir, the network of material warehouses has been seized." Friday reported.
"Ultron went to attack?" Stark asked in surprise, then said to the communication screen in front of him, "Then Mr. President, let's talk about the plan in more detail later." β
"Okay, I hope the Avengers can deal with this crisis smoothly." The president of the United States in the virtual screen bowed his head, then turned his head to the side and ordered: "Activate the national military warning." β
Ending the communication, Stark got up and walked to the lab while saying, "How's it going?" Friday. Give me a satellite map of the warehouse. β
"Sir, Ultron didn't take action, and control of the network wasn't taken by the other side." Answered on Friday.
"It's Earls again." Stark reacted, grumbling unhappily.
The satellite map expands. Stark zoomed in and asked, "Can you still connect to the server over there on Friday?" β
"Yes sir, my authority has not been fully withdrawn." Friday response.
"Hmph......" Stark snorted unhappily again. Then he commanded: "Bring out the drawings of the suit I designed before." β
"Sir, there's another suit blueprint that Mr. Earles just uploaded." On Friday, the materials were brought up. He said.
"Another copy? Tune it out. Stark was a little more energetic.
Soon another suit drawing appeared, Stark looked at it and lost interest, and sneered: "Pick up people's teeth, it's just that I have made a lot of modifications on my suit, this is the vibranium suit design that Earls made?" β
"Is vibranium really here......
A deep voice suddenly sounded, causing Stark's hair to stand on end in an instant, and he didn't dare to move.
The corner of his eye turned, Stark saw the dark shadow behind him from the reflection of a metal frame, and after identifying that the other party was not Ultron, Stark breathed a sigh of relief and slowly looked back.
"Who are you?" Stark asked cautiously after seeing who was speaking.
"You took what is not yours." Dressed in a jet-black tights and wearing a panther-shaped visor, he was the man who appeared on an abandoned South African steamer.
"Wakanda?" Tony Stark quickly thought of something and asked in confirmation.
The visitor nodded slowly.
"Uh...... Dude, I think we need to have a good talk, so what do we call it? A formulaic smile appeared on Stark's face, and he said very kindly.
"Black Panther." Someone spat out a word.
"Alright, Panther." Stark made an invitation: "Let's go over there and talk, do you want something to drink?" β
The Black Panther did not respond, but did not refuse Stark's invitation to talk, and followed Stark to the rest area.
Guided by Stark, the two talked a lot, and after about two hours, the two left the Avengers Building and went to Washington......
At the same time, inside a warehouse of supplies in Nevada.
"Here we are." Lucy spoke suddenly.
"What's coming?" Petro didn't react.
"Sir, there have been robot attacks all over the world!" Zhenweis's voice sounded synchronously.
"You're going to scatter us!" Ant-Man Scott exclaimed.
"Zhenweis, number distribution map." Steve commanded.
The next moment, a virtual map of the world appeared, and when zoomed in, many red dots, some large and some small, appeared.
"So many ......," Bruce Banner was surprised.
"There are two main targets." Jing Tian pointed to the map and said, "One is on our side, and the other is on Washington's side." β
"Is Ultron going to attack the White House?" The wasp frowned, "We have to help." There are too many! β
"Go ahead." Jing Tian glanced at the wasp and said flatly.
"Then let's go!" The wasp put on the hood of her suit and beckoned to the crowd.
"You and Scott go." Hawkeye didn't move, but stared at the virtual map and said, "I'm going to stay, my ranged attack can help here, and Washington's side is not Ultron's main target, having Tony and Colonel Rhodes, plus the two of you is enough." β
"...... here," the wasp frowned, but seeing that everyone was unmoved, she had to take back her next words. Nodding his head, he said, "Okay, then Scott and I will go to support Washington, Mr. Earles, can you do me a favor?" β
Jing Tian didn't respond, but opened a blue wormhole portal with a wave of his hand.
"Scott!" The wasp greeted, didn't look at everyone, and rushed directly into the portal.
"Uh...... Be careful. Ant-Man Scott spoke, then put on a helmet like a gas mask and rushed into the portal as well.
"Are we still going according to plan?" Wait for the portal to close. Star-Lord asked Jing Tian.
"Hmm." Jing Tian bowed: "Come with me, I will prepare a spaceship for you, and the attacks of other countries will be handed over to you to provide rapid assistance." β
"Okay." Star-Lord answered, and followed Jing Tian to the courtyard outside with Gamora and the others.
Soon. The three ships soared into the sky, dispersed and flew in different directions.
"Carter, let the boys get moving!"
As soon as Jing Tian entered the house, he heard Steve's voice contacting the umbrella.
"Go to New York." Jing Tian said: "It is estimated that Ultron will also attack the Avengers Mansion and Fantasy Technology. β
"Let's stay." Wanda stepped forward. Gently staring at Jing Tian and said, "The captain has already guessed just now, but there are still Falcon and Bucky in New York, so there will be no danger." We're here to help you. β
"This ......" Jing Tian wanted to say, 'I really don't need to', but seeing everyone's determined expressions, he had to retract his words and smile: "Okay." β
The crowd rejoiced.
"Then ......" Steve clapped his hands, looked around at everyone and commanded: "Hawkeye, you and Wanda go to the top of the building to occupy the commanding heights, Wanda protects Hawkeye's safety!" β
"Hmm." Wanda responded.
Hawkeye smiled and nodded to Wanda.
"Natasha, you and I defend the East together." Steve continued to command.
"No problem." Natasha pulled out her twin guns, pulled out the infinite magazine, and checked the equipment on her body.
"Bruce." Steve turned around: "I'll leave it to you in the west." β
"Uh...... I'll go to the south, it's more empty. Bruce Banner laughed, "There is a forest to the west, and I can't do it, and it's not good to destroy the forest." β
"Okay." Steve chuckled and bowed.
"What about me, what about me?" Quicksilver Pietro was a little impatient.
"The Forest to the West." Steve laughed, "Use your speed, and get the most out of your new gear." β
"Haha, no problem!" Quicksilver shook his wrists, and two 'plasma wrist blades' appeared, and said excitedly: "You don't have to rely on your fists to smash it now." β
"Earls." Steve smiled and nodded, then looked at Jing Tian again: "The rest of the north is up to you, don't go too far, and lure Ultron to gather all his forces." β
Steve said and looked at Lucy again: "Lucy, you hide it in the warehouse, wait for Ultron to appear, grab it quickly!" β
"No problem." Lucy chuckled, "When the robot army arrives, I'll cut off the internet connection in the surrounding area, so that Ultron can't escape through the internet." β
"Good!" Steve laughed, then looked around at everyone: "Then everyone, take your seats!" β
Everyone smiled at each other, and then took action at the same time......
Roof.
Hawkeye placed a few bags of arrows in a convenient position, then looked at Wanda, who had always been on Jing Tian, and chuckled, "Don't worry, Earls's strength is the strongest of all of us." β
"Hmm." Wanda came back to her senses and smiled beautifully.
Hawkeye was slightly distracted by Wanda's smile, but she already had a wife and children after all. So he quickly came back to his senses, shook his head slightly and smiled......
East of the warehouse.
With a shield in his left hand and a gun in his right, Steve said to Natasha beside him, "Wait for the enemies on the ground to be handed over to me, and the ones in the air to you." β
"Not used to flying?" Natasha asked, curling the corners of her mouth.
Steve shook his head with a wry smile: "I'm not used to it, and I can't master it well in the air, so the shield can only be used defensively." β
"Hehe......" Natasha chuckled, "Okay, I'll leave the air one to me." β
Natasha raised her right hand as she spoke, and pressed it on the back of her ear, the next moment. A hood spread from the headphones, enveloping Natasha's head.
"Zhenweis, activate the air combat assistance system." Natasha commanded softly.
"We're here to help, Master Natasha."
Zhenwei responded quickly, and the next moment, a lot of data appeared on Natasha's goggles......
In the south, Bruce Banner took off his shirt and shoes, leaving only a pair of black leggings with shoes, and groped his arms. Then he looked into the distance.
Deep in the western forest, Quicksilver stands in front of a large tree, whistling while carving something on the bark with a plasma wristblade. No worries about the upcoming battle.
Inside the warehouse, Lucy slowly closed her eyes, and in the north of the warehouse, Jing Tian's wrist flipped. Two sand eagles with infinite magazines appeared, narrowing their eyes slightly, looking at the light that appeared in the sky in the distance.
Hum -
The sound of energy jets is getting closer. The army of robots reflecting the sunlight gradually pressed over, 300 meters, 200 meters, 100 meters, 50 meters......
Bang!
The first shot was fired by Natasha, and the next moment, an army of robots that could not be seen suddenly attacked.
I don't know how many energy beams fell from the sky, so dense that it was impossible to dodge.
However, Jing Tian and the others didn't have to hide, at the moment when the energy beam was coming, a layer of energy protection rose from the surface of everyone's body, neutralizing and disappearing all the energy of the incoming beam in an instant, and it was the 'Ark Energy Neutralizer' made by Rocket Raccoon that worked.
The light dissipated, Jing Tian and the others were not damaged in the slightest, and Ultron seemed to know this, and did not control the robot to attack with an energy beam, but divided the robot army into two, rushing towards everyone from the air and the ground at the same time, preparing for melee combat.
"Target ......" Jing Tian chuckled, looking at the robot ocean that was approaching a range of thirty meters, and his arms were instantly raised.
Bang! Bang bang......
A continuous stream of bullets flew out from the muzzles of the two guns, and the special bullets easily tore through the robot's defense, and after drilling into the robot's head, it triggered a secondary explosion, and the robots fell to the ground in an instant, losing their breath.
"Roarβ"
An earth-shattering roar rang out in the distance.
Rumble!
On the south side where Bruce was, the huge green figure was fierce, smashing the upper body of the two robots with his left hand, and throwing the robot he was holding to the right with his right hand, and then raised his foot and kicked it, and with a 'boom', the encirclement in front of him made a huge gap.
"Roar!" With a roar, the Hulk's upper body suddenly struggled, shook off the two robots that pounced on him, and then grabbed the thigh of one of the robots in his hand with his right hand, and quickly swung it around.
After a few blows, the Hulk casually threw his hand off his leg and knocked down a robot, and then slammed his right foot off.
A layer of robot remains had already fallen under the Hulk's feet, and under this lift, a large number of parts and remnants instantly burst up, breaking a gap in the robot's encirclement again.
The next moment, more robots pounced from both sides of the city.
The Hulk tugged at the corners of his mouth, smiled disdainfully, and swung his arms violently......
Unlike the big scene on the Hulk's side, the west side of Quicksilver is the quietest.
Originally, there were fewer robots attacking from this side of the forest than from other directions, and after Quicksilver appeared, those robots were immediately seduced and landed, rushing into the woods to pursue Quicksilver.
This is exactly what Quicksilver wants, and after laughing, Quicksilver's rapid ability suddenly turns on, and it itself enters the slow-motion environment of 'bullet time'.
Trotting up very leisurely, taking out the pistol on his waist, Quicksilver unhurriedly shot bullets at the robots in the high places, while his right arm kept swinging, and the knife cut through each robot with a 'plasma wrist blade', splitting the robots on the ground that seemed to be stationary one by one...... (To be continued.) )
