Watchers?!

"You bastard!"

"Brother! We just went out for fun. What are you doing?!"

Wanda clung tightly to Pietro's arm, afraid he might do something irrational and accidentally hurt her.

The fury in Pietro's eyes was nearly bursting forth. During the one day he had spent recuperating, that bastard robot had actually taken his sister to San Francisco, where they had stayed the night without returning!

Pietro wanted nothing more than to fight Li Nian to the death and make that bastard stay far away from his sister.

"Vision is a good person. He's a comrade worth trusting!"

"What kind of comrade lures you off to stay in a hotel?!"

The moment Wanda heard that, a blush instantly spread across her face. Seeing his sister's expression, Pietro cried out even more dramatically, "My little sister has finally grown up!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Wanda's face flushed red. In her panic, she unconsciously used her powers and flung Pietro away, sending him crashing into the corridor over ten meters away.

"Ah! Brother!"

Wanda cried out in alarm.

Poor Pietro would probably be bedridden for a while again...

Kamar-Taj

Li Nian was sitting face-to-face with the Ancient One.

"You didn't do very well in Sokovia, did you?"

The Ancient One took a light sip of hot tea. Its crisp fragrance drifted into Li Nian's nose, though he could not actually smell it. He merely said to her with some disappointment, "They're automatically correcting history. No matter what I do, I can't change it."

"So you chose not to change it?" The Ancient One gently set down her teacup, a faint smile rising at the corner of her lips. "Don't be so anxious, young man. Failure is inevitable. No one can guarantee success one hundred percent of the time."

"Ha! Thank you for your guidance, Master!"

Li Nian abruptly changed the subject. "Master, the thing I left with you..."

"It's already repaired." The Ancient One shook her head helplessly. This fellow really dared to leave anything with her.

"Aren't you afraid it might revive again and plunge humanity into disaster once more? Perhaps New York will become the next Sokovia."

"He doesn't have that kind of ability." Li Nian smiled shamelessly. As he watched Ultron slowly emerge from behind the Ancient One, his eyes instantly lit up.

Rather than Ultron, it was more accurate to call it a shell—a hollow shell without any programs at all. Back in the forest, Ultron's last trace of consciousness had already been erased by Li Nian using the Mind Stone. There was no chance of revival at all. But his body was valuable.

Li Nian looked at the brand-new body gleaming with black and gold light. Faint magical runes could even be seen upon it. Clearly, this was the Ancient One's handiwork.

As Li Nian gazed at the body, scenes of Infinity Ultron slaughtering his way across the battlefield flashed through his mind. He was so excited he could barely contain himself.

"With this, I can become Infinity Vision. With the boost of magic, I'll be even stronger than Infinity Ultron!"

"Are you taking it away now?" the Ancient One asked softly.

"No. Not yet. The time isn't right..." Li Nian shook his head. If he suddenly returned wearing Ultron's body, it might cause the Captain and the others to distrust him. After all, he had secretly kept Ultron's body without telling them, which would make them question his intentions.

"Then leave it with me for now. Whenever you need it, come and take it. Though by then, I probably won't be the one handing it to you."

The Ancient One smiled. She had long foreseen her own death.

Li Nian remained silent. He did not have much experience, nor did he possess extraordinary wisdom or talent. Likewise, he did not share the weariness of someone who had lived for centuries. He could not understand the Ancient One's desire to die.

"Go, young man. Don't forget your original intention!"

The Ancient One waved her hand, and a portal suddenly appeared, sending Li Nian back to where he had been.

"The next plot is the Civil War." Li Nian sat on the sofa, his head aching terribly. With Baron Zemo as an unstable factor, Tony would eventually learn the truth about Howard and his wife's deaths. A conflict with the Captain would be unavoidable then. How to resolve it was the problem.

Li Nian felt a headache coming on. Could he only avoid this civil war by beating one side into submission?

After all, Tony and the Captain's split had led to the heroes suffering an unquestionable crushing defeat when Thanos later invaded Earth. Li Nian himself had even died on the spot. That future could not be allowed to repeat itself in this universe!

"Zemo..." That dangerous man had not yet shown his true colors, leaving Li Nian with no way to deal with him. Zemo was currently a soldier, a war hero, with no criminal record whatsoever. Li Nian had no reason to arrest such a law-abiding citizen. Acting on his own would only invite widespread criticism. This was not some cartoon, after all.

"This is so annoying!" Li Nian threw back his head and shouted miserably. He truly was not good at things that required thinking.

"Outsider... I need your help..."

A pair of enormous, glowing eyes appeared behind Li Nian. A low whisper quietly surfaced beside his ear. Just as Li Nian, uncertain and alarmed, prepared to turn around, his body suddenly vanished, as though a gentle breeze had blown him away.

"Vision! Vision! Are you there? I heard your voice..." Wanda knocked on the door several times. When there was no movement inside, her brows immediately furrowed. She called out even louder a few more times, but after receiving no response at all, Wanda anxiously forced her way through the door.

"Vision!" Unfortunately, she was one step too late.

Kamar-Taj

The Ancient One held a bowl of hot tea in her hands. As though sensing something, her movements paused. Tea accidentally splashed over the rim and spilled onto her hand.

The Ancient One seemed not to feel the heat at all. She merely paused, her gaze passing through the window as if crossing through countless ages. Her eyes were unfathomably deep, as though she were contemplating something unknown.

"It's here... the multiverse..."

She murmured, then paid it no mind and simply lowered her head to drink her tea.

Li Nian felt the world spin around him, as if he had been stuffed into a flushing toilet and someone had pressed the button ten times.

Li Nian immediately dropped to his knees, dizzy and nauseous. Logically, a robot should not have such a reaction, but...

A large, grotesquely deformed head slowly entered Li Nian's field of vision. A pair of glowing eyes locked firmly onto him, its powerful aura impossible to conceal.

"Watchers!"

Li Nian looked at the newcomer in disbelief. It was the Watchers, who silently observed the civilizations of the universe!

Yet at this moment, he was staring at Li Nian in a rather bedraggled state, his voice even carrying a hint of pleading as he said, "I need your help!"

"This..." Li Nian was completely dumbfounded. He did not understand why the future plot had appeared now.

Only then did he notice that his body was not Vision's vibranium body, but his original human body!

Just as Li Nian was shocked by this change, a dark, thin figure slowly emerged from the shadows behind him.

"Things are getting more and more interesting!"

Three sinister, evil eyes stared fixedly at Li Nian...
