There is no doubt that Ultron posed a great threat to the earth and human society during its short life.

And this threat and panic eventually turned into distrust of the Avengers Alliance.

Especially Iron Man - Tony·Stark, who caused all this, almost overnight changed from a superhero loved by everyone to an object of criticism and attack.

In just a few days, International Security Council held several public hearings and initiated corresponding accountability procedures.

Of course, this is all just for show.

They have no intention of doing anything to these Avengerss who possess advanced technology and terrifying capabilities. They are just diverting the attention of the media and do not want the matter of launching a super nuclear warhead to destroy a city to be revealed.

Similarly, these guys are also trying to force Avengers, which is already effectively independent, to re-accept their own supervision.

After all, as a union of the five most powerful countries on earth, they don't like having a super Ability User organization that is powerful enough but completely out of their control, managing activities around the world all day long.

What if you accidentally discovered some secret experiments you had conducted?

In short, the newly born Vision, as well as Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, soon witnessed the darkest and dirtiest scene in human nature, which is politics.

Especially at the hearing, some people tried to portray Vision as the second generation of Ultron, and the twin siblings as dangerous individuals with unsound minds and extreme personalities.

As for the purpose, of course it is to get the three of them out of the protection of Tony·Stark and directly put them under the control of International Security Council or US Government organization.

It's a pity that for Stark Industries, who has the ability to make all the changes in the capital world, this kind of little trick can't even scratch an itch.

Relying on a large and extremely powerful team of lawyers, Tony·Stark blasted those guys who represented the military and government at the hearing to the point where they couldn't even be found.

In the end, all proposals fell through.

Except for some malicious media, which slightly stirred up public sentiment, they broadcast the scene of Hulk fighting Iron Man in the center of the city. A large number of surrounding buildings were destroyed, and countless people were injured or even died.

Obviously, International Security Council has not given up his intention to restrain Avengers.

This time, they plan to rely on the power of the people and public opinion.

Just like the method US Government used to destroy Steve·Rogers, they first continuously produced and broadcast negative news, and then transformed the superhero form that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people into a Superpowers group that will cause great harm to society.

Over time, people's attitudes towards Avengers will naturally change.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Tony·Stark.

Because he had long ago left the responsibility for these public opinion wars to Maria Sil, and he took his twin siblings and Vision directly through the portal to Sky City on the planet Azerath.

As for Natasha, her pregnancy has been confirmed by the hospital examination, and she followed Hawk Eyes back to the country house to raise the baby with peace of mind with his girlfriend, who is also pregnant.

I have to say that this is definitely one of the few pieces of good news for the Avengerss who have suffered so much.

Almost all members sent gifts and blessings to Black Widow and her upcoming child.

Thor returned to Asgard, preparing to talk to his father Odin about Dark Elves, and Reality Stone - Aether.

Only Captain America had no intention of taking any time off, and once again embarked on a journey to find his "good gay friend" Bucky.

Suddenly, the Avengerss who finally gathered went their separate ways again.

At the same time, standing on the edge of Sky City, Scarlet Witch Wanda was staring at everything around him. After two or three minutes, he asked without looking back, "This is the place you often mentioned before? It's incredible! How was it built?"

"It's spectacular, isn't it?" Tony·Stark raised his head and looked up at the silver waterfall flowing down from the sky, with a touch of emotion in his tone. "Believe me, this city is actually the most inconspicuous of all the things you can see. Allen even created the entire universe, with billions of planets and stars."

"The entire universe? You mean..."

Quicksilver opened his mouth wide in surprise, raised his head and looked at the stars in the sky.

Tony·Stark nodded without thinking, "That's right! That's what it means literally. That's why I would like to emphasize that Allen is no different from a god to a certain extent. He can create life, create the universe, and resurrect the dead. All the abilities you can find in myths and legends are reflected in him. And he also knows countless secrets and possesses vast knowledge that cannot be described in words..."

But before Iron Man could finish speaking, Vision suddenly interrupted, "Wait! I feel an unusual aura. Look, what's going on down there?"

Following the direction of his finger, the other three people could clearly see a huge portal suddenly opened on a lake emitting violet light.

Followed by thousands of the Burning Legion demons with different shapes, they swarmed in from the other side like a tide, starting the thrilling history of Azerath.

Under the influence of Fel Energy and shadow magic, a large number of Night Elf were slaughtered by the demons before they even had time to react.

Of course, some High Elves who had already taken refuge in the Burning Legion were pardoned by Sargeras.

Looking at the demon army all over the mountains and plains, Tony·Stark subconsciously put on his own battle armor, preparing to swoop down directly to help the pointy-eared Elves who looked more pleasing to the eye.

But before he could take any actual action, Allen suddenly appeared and stopped him. "Stop it. This is their war, part of the history of this planet, and has nothing to do with you."

"What do you mean? Aren't you the creator and manager of this universe?" Tony·Stark subconsciously frowned and asked.

Allen explained with a smile, "I have said that I have never been a god, not in the past, not now, and not in the future. So I will not control or change anything in the way of a god. Even if I want to interfere, I will interfere in the way of a mortal. If you really want to participate in this war, then I welcome you to join in another way."

"Another way?" Quicksilver grasped the key point keenly.

"Yes! I provide a real-life game called Arrival. You can choose a race, then create your own character, and interpret a legendary experience from the perspective of the indigenous inhabitants of this world."

With that said, Allen raised Teuchi and snapped his fingers, showing the "players" on the ground who were struggling to resist the invasion of the Burning Legion.

Whenever a player-controlled character dies, the Sky City residents lying in the birth chamber will suddenly wake up.

Some of them have bad tempers and even curse to express their inner anger and dissatisfaction.

Because the physical fitness of those ordinary Night Elf is too weak. If they were replaced by their true bodies, they can guarantee that they can kill this demon army in an instant.

But it's a pity that Allen has already formulated a series of rules.

Not to mention coming in the true form, "spoilers" to the natives, or secretly training and teaching Haki, Life Energy and other techniques are all prohibited.

The only thing they can bring is their well-honed combat skills, will, and understanding and use of magical energy.

Under this restriction, although the residents of Sky City perform much better than most natives, according to the data of the game, they are only an elite template at best.

In addition, the arrival time is relatively short, and there is not much time to exercise. Naturally, there is no way to block the onslaught of the Burning Legion demon.

There is no doubt that this unique real-person experience of the game immediately refreshed the understanding of everyone present.

After all, the game industry on earth is still in the initial stage of virtual reality. It is impossible to imagine creating a body out of thin air and injecting and controlling thoughts in a real world.

And once a certain Game Character dies, it is really dead.

Including the body, equipment, wealth, interpersonal relationships, and power controlled, everything will be cleared instantly.

There is absolutely no such thing as "resurrecting a running corpse", which is almost cheating for the natives.

"Interfering with history and creating history in a mortal way... your idea is really eye-opening." Tony·Stark licked his dry lips and exclaimed.

If he wasn't still shouldering the responsibility of defending the earth and defending mankind, he would have wanted to create a character and directly start a life journey full of exotic customs.

After all, human beings are very contradictory creatures.

On the one hand, there is an extreme desire to escape from a stable life, to take risks and explore the unknown.

On the other hand, they are extremely afraid of unexpected changes in life, especially the risks hidden in the changes.

Normally, most modern people satisfy their inner desires through news, novels, film and television works, and games.

But now, there are clearly better options.

"How about it, are you interested in giving it a try? Don't worry, according to the data we have, players who come for the first time usually don't live long. Not only Stark, all of you can come and participate." Allen sent out the invitation with a smile.

"I... can that too?" Vision was obviously moved.

Because in a strict sense, he is just a robot, and cannot well understand some of the emotions and feelings of living things, especially humans.

If you have the opportunity to experience the feeling of flesh and blood, that would definitely be the best thing.

Allen nodded without thinking, "Of course. Come on, I will take you to the birth chamber."

With tension, uneasiness and curiosity, a group of four people were soon taken to the subspace beneath the city.

At a glance, there are countless white cabins densely packed here.

Some of them have residents of Sky City lying inside, and others have just experienced the death of Game Character and are sitting next to them exchanging information with others.

After all, the original Azerath is just a condensed Game World.

Now that it has been suddenly magnified countless times, whether it is mountains, rivers, oceans, or other topography, there have been unimaginable huge changes.

Some players even got lost just after leaving the village and could not find their way back. They could only wander in the wilderness and struggle to survive.

In the end, they either starved to death, died of thirst, or were hunted by ferocious beasts.

In fact, surviving in a relatively primitive and dangerous world is far more troublesome and dangerous than most people.

What's more, these players still lost the power they were proud of. When they were first born, they only had the average attributes of the Night Elf race, not even a Class Template.

"This is it, you just need to lie down in it." Allen said, pointing to the four empty birth chambers.

"Are there any precautions?" Wanda asked in an uncertain tone.

"Well... one thing you need to pay attention to is to try not to create a character that is inconsistent with your own gender. Because the body you control is real and will secrete various male and female hormones, which will affect your brain and thinking. This means that if you play the role of the opposite sex for too long, it is likely to affect your hobbies and sexual orientation." Allen gave a meaningful warning.

Wanda When he heard these words, he shivered with fright and hurriedly lay down.

After all four people lay down, the hatch quickly closed and at the same time began to emit some strange green smoke.

After about two or three minutes, without exception, they all closed their eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Of course, this kind of deep sleep is actually the consciousness leaving the body and building its own Game Character.

After several selections, they finally chose Night Elf, the race closest to humans, without exception.

As for Orcs, Ogre, Tauren, Trolls, and Draenei, they all looked a little too weird and were quickly eliminated.

What's more, Tony·Stark still has the idea of helping Night Elf resist Burning Legion.

So fifteen minutes later, a Night Elf young man with short green hair, a tall and fit body, was born out of thin air in a small village.

Before he could adapt to the changes in his height and strength, he suddenly heard a voice shouting at him, "Hey! Boy! Don't be dazed! Come with us! Those demons are coming soon!"

"What? Demon?"

Tony·Stark was stunned for a moment, but immediately saw the flickering green light in the distant sky.

The next second...

A huge burning fireball suddenly fell from the sky and hit the ground with a bang, directly destroying all the artistic tree houses.

At the same time, the stone puppet slowly stood up and let out a roar of unknown meaning.

You know without asking that this is War Machine of the Burning Legion—Hellfire Puppet.

Fel Flame, which was burning all over its body, turned this peaceful little village into a sea of fire in less than a few seconds.
