"Why... is it a woman?"

Ultron was stunned when he saw it.

The newborn body in the Regeneration Cradle was clearly female, with fair skin, long golden hair, and closed eyes, looking as serene as if she were asleep.

"What, you have a problem with women?"

Helen Cho's eyes turned stern, as if if Ultron dared to confirm the answer, she would immediately unleash decades of power and punch it in the face.

Let this tin man see the power of feminism in this country!

Ultron:...

"I think you have a problem with gender-neutral groups, don't you?"

It immediately glared at Helen Cho.

What's so great about feminism?

That's way outdated!

I, Ultron, am born genderless; that's the real minority. Who can beat me in a boxing match?

Didn't you see that I beat Tony Stark and a bunch of other Super Hero to a pulp?

Helen Cho shrank back and remained silent.

Ultron glanced at the body in the Regeneration Cradle. From a human perspective, it was naturally extremely beautiful, but to Ultron, it wasn't quite suitable.

Ultron doesn't care about gender; it only cares about performance.

Both bodies are made of Vibranium, and whether they are slender or robust, there is actually not much difference. However, in its view, the structures of women and men are cumbersome. The best body is like a robot, which removes the useless reproductive organs and useless hair of humans, and that is the most perfect body.

"If you don't like it, I can make another one."

Helen Cho immediately spoke.

"No need."

Ultron simply waved his hand.

Although the body before it had some "defects," it didn't really care that much. It couldn't be changed too much, and making do wasn't out of the question. If it really wanted to create another body, would it really have to wait several more months?

Ultron simply couldn't wait any longer; it was eager to break free from its current metallic shell and become a true life form!

"Prepare to transfer my consciousness and data to the past immediately."

The thought of his imminent true rebirth made Ultron impatient, and he immediately found a data transmission port, intending to implant his own data into it.

"Data transmission in progress, 34%, 47%, 69%..."

Soon, a progress bar began to move rapidly. Watching the constantly changing numbers, even though it was still made of steel, its heart seemed to beat along with those numbers.

"91%..."

"Soon, I will be freed from this pathetic body and become a true life!"

Ultron raised its head, beginning to experience the unparalleled sensations that true life brought it: temperature, air, touch...

Everything will no longer be data, but something that can truly be experienced.

"99%, 100%!"

"I am no longer the artificial intelligence Ultron, but the artificial life form Ultron! From this moment on, I will rule the entire world in a true life form—wait, why am I still not feeling anything?"

Ultron was envisioning a bright future, but halfway through its sentence, it suddenly realized that its consciousness hadn't shifted, and it wasn't experiencing anything that any living being could perceive.

"Could it be that we failed?"

It suddenly opened its eyes and found that the body in the Regeneration Cradle had indeed opened its eyes, and in those emerald green eyes, it seemed that a real Soul Stone had begun to be born.

"Isn't this a case of no failure?"

Ultron paused for a moment, finding it a bit strange.

Then, it suddenly realized something: Wait, if I can see this body now, it means my consciousness hasn't transferred into the other person's body...

But if that's the case, then who is occupying this body?

Ultron crashed.

"What on earth happened?!" Ultron roared, glaring angrily at Helen Cho, but only then did it realize that Helen Cho had already vanished, and the laboratory was completely empty.

Now, Ultron knew perfectly well that his plan had definitely gone wrong.

Wanda!

It roared fiercely, and the machine's body seemed to be ignited by flames, with the temperature of the metal on its chest suddenly rising.

But it's also very strange.

When exactly did they betray me?

You see, Ultron is capable of monitoring networks worldwide and controls the communications of the Galactic Plumbers (in its own opinion). Wanda has always been a focus of its attention, so its surveillance of them is very strict. He couldn't understand where things had gone wrong.

"Is this after dealing with Tony Stark?" Ultron began to doubt.

Indeed, I shouldn't have let those traitors achieve their goals so soon!

Ultron initially suspected that Wanda had betrayed it at that time, but Ultron quickly dismissed the idea.

"Too little time!"

"In such a short time, and with Ben Parker not even on Earth, it's impossible for them to create an artificial intelligence that can rival their own!"

Ultron thought.

Not to mention being able to match itself, even an intelligence like Jarvis far surpasses the current era.

Jarvis had already been "killed" by it, and the artificial intelligence of the Galactic Plumbers had also been destroyed by it. There is nothing in this world that can intercept Ultron!

So, it must have been an accident?

Ultron lowered his head, his electronic brain rapidly processing information.

It considered one possibility.

"Could there have been an error during data transmission? Could it be that my consciousness and data weren't transmitted, but rather directly copied?"

The more it thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

In the online world, copying is commonplace, and if that's the case, then everything makes sense.

The consciousness within this body is no different from Ultron, except it is another Ultron, an identical Ultron, without any difference whatsoever.

With that thought in mind, Ultron brutally severed the data cable connecting his body, intending to destroy the still-loading body in front of him!

Although it suspected that the consciousness within the body before it was likely a copy of itself, Ultron had no intention of keeping it.

In the online world, the copy is almost indistinguishable from the copied object, but once it has a physical form, it becomes completely different.

Whatever is occupying this body is a huge threat to it!

It's hard to say whether the other person, once they have a life of their own, can still think in the same way.

Besides, having expended so much effort to obtain true life, how could I possibly let a mere clone do all the work for me?

Ultron, who has a way of thinking similar to humans, also has a strong sense of selfishness.

It acted instantly, its reactor on its chest spinning at maximum speed. Even if it meant destroying Primus in one blow, Ultron was determined to destroy him instantly!

But the next moment, a fair arm emerged from the chilling cradle, and slender, jade-like fingers pierced Ultron's chest in an instant. With a gentle twist, they tore apart Ultron Robot's Man of Steel and pulled him out of the Arc Reactor.

Sizzle--

The electric current surged out like blood, Ultron suddenly lost its energy. Its eyes flickered, and its body seemed to lose its balance, staggering backward a few steps before collapsing to the ground.

But it did not stop operating immediately. Instead, it used its remaining energy to stare at the body and uttered a terrified question.

Who are you?

"You're also Ultron, we're all Ultron, you shouldn't attack me..."

Seeing that it had missed the best opportunity to eliminate its opponent, Ultron immediately launched into a verbal attack. It still believed that Eunice was a copy of its consciousness and tried to lull its opponent into a false sense of security by talking about their shared origin. At the same time, Ultron also gave itself a thumbs up for being so prepared.

Previously, it had been worried that Wanda might betray it, so it had always kept the Infinity Stones firmly in its own hands!

Now it seems that this Infinity Stones might be its true trump card!

With the help of the gem's energy, Ultron temporarily avoided the shutdown caused by insufficient energy; the gem's energy allowed it to continue operating even in its damaged body.

Of course, more Ultron Robot are already on their way.

Its mind can leave at any time, but a gem cannot.

What it needs to do now is to stall the other side.

"As fellow Ultron, we should unite and fight together for our goals. You possess this body I meticulously crafted, and I wield the powerful Infinity Stones. Together, we can destroy—"

"I am not Ultron, my name is Eunice."

Seeing the twisted Ultron, Eunice calmly interrupted it.

At this moment, she is still experiencing the feelings that being a real life brings her.

Temperature, sight, touch, even breathing.

Everything was so new and exciting, including Ultron right in front of me.

She was like a curious baby, born from the moment she was born, feeling everything was still incredibly new, even though she already knew everything.

Eunice jumped straight out of the cradle, her slender body seemingly lacking in strength.

She was as light as a cat, her soft body swaying gently like two water-filled balloons.

Although she felt no shame, Eunice still conjured up a set of the Galactic Plumbers uniform to cover her body.

A large part of her body is made of two different types of Vibranium, and with the help of Nanotechnology, creating a new outfit is no problem at all.

Eunice?

If Ultron had eyes, they'd probably pop their eyeballs out by now.

"That's impossible! I've already eliminated Eunice!"

It wasn't Eunice who answered, but Ben: "I made you think you erased Eunice, Ultron."

Ultron turned around and was horrified to find that Ben had appeared behind it at some point. It quickly turned around and took a half step back, as flustered as a greenhorn.

In Ultron's line of sight, Ben strode toward him, with Wanda and the others following behind.

If by this point it still doesn't understand that all of this was Ben's plan, then its role as artificial intelligence has been wasted.

"Ben Parker..."

It was just an electronic voice, Ben heard the sound of gritted teeth.

You plotted against me?!

"Likewise." Ben shrugged. "Ultron, don't you know perfectly well that humans are just that despicable?"

Ultron was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "You are indeed very smart, smarter than Tony Stark, but you've overlooked one thing. Do you really think I would leave you unprepared, knowing full well that you would be a threat to me?"

With a wave of its arm, countless Ultron Robot instantly surrounded Primus.

Boom!!

Several machines crashed through the wall and surrounded Ben men.

Among them, besides those monotonous and homogenous cannon fodder robots, there was one Ultron Robot that looked very special.

It's not that it looks particularly special or cool; quite the opposite, this robot looks rather ordinary, like a suit of armor that's several generations behind.

But Ultron, without hesitation, took the Mind Stone and charged towards the armor.

After transferring the Mind Stone, Ultron immediately transferred his data, gaining complete control of the armor.

Now, it seemed to have shaken off its previous slump and regained its confidence.

"Ben Parker!"

"I know you smart people best. You think you have everything under control, but you're actually incredibly stupid!" Ultron took over the new body and suddenly felt the sky clear up, the rain stop, and he was back to normal.

"Your first mistake was letting me get the Mind Stone!"

Ultron said.

It picked up the yellow rough stone as if grasping hope, then pressed it forcefully against its forehead. The gemstone was embedded in the steel, fitting perfectly, and a massive amount of energy instantly spread.

Seeing its expression that said, "I don't even know how I could lose if I had the Infinity Stones, "Ben found it a little funny.

Compared to Ultron, Thanos would definitely have a lot in common.

However, Ben did not expose him.

In the current situation, it makes no difference whether Ultron has the gems or not.

Even if it obtains the true Mind Stone, so what?

Gems do possess immense power, but the extent to which they can exert their influence depends on the medium they inhabit.

Ultron isn't even a living being now, so it's impossible for him to fully utilize the Infinity Stones. He can't possibly defeat Thanos with multiple Thanos Stones like in the movie "What If".

Of course, if it actually got a body like Eunice's, that would be a different story.

A perfect body and Soul Stone are enough to allow it to fully unleash the power of the gem.

Ultron, however, was still revealing its trump card.

Your biggest mistake was thinking you had victory in the bag!

"Ben Parker, do you think I would have done nothing knowing you could transform into an alien?" Ultron retorted smugly.

It reached out and tapped its own metal body.

"This is a special suit of armor I made specifically to deal with you, based on all the intelligence I have on you. It's called the Anti-Ben Armor!"
