Near-Death Auto-Switch Mechanism

Jiang Li gritted his teeth and tried to raise his right hand to slap the Omnitrix on his left wrist.

But he couldn't do it.

Under the suppression of Omniverse laws, his nerve signals couldn't even reach his muscles. His time, space, and reality were completely locked down.

Ultron's cold electronic eyes looked down at Jiang Li as he dissipated, without a ripple of emotion.

"Clearance progress: 99%."

However.

Just as Jiang Li's heart was about to stop beating and his consciousness was about to sink completely into darkness, in the last 0.01 seconds...

[Drop--!!!]

A sharp, electronic buzzing sound, even louder than the sound of reality collapsing, exploded from Jiang Li's left wrist!

The Omnitrix of that originally dull and worn-out watch suddenly popped up!

The deep green light, in an unreasonable manner, instantly pierced through the red glow that enveloped the Reality Stone!

This was not Jiang Li's doing.

This is Omnitrix's ultimate Omnitrix, etched into its underlying code.

[Failsafe Automatic Defense Mechanism]!

When it detects that the host is facing an irresistible and fatal attack, the Omnitrix will ignore all external laws, forcibly take over the host's body, and automatically search the gene pool for alien DNA that can withstand the attack!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Within the green light, Jiang Li's dissipating body began to mutate wildly.

In a single second, his form changed hundreds or even thousands of times!

Transformed into a [Diamondhead], the silicon-based body instantly cracks under the laws of reality—elimination!

Becoming a [Big Chill] means your ethereal abilities can't escape being erased by reality—elimination!

It becomes a "Water Hazard," causing water molecules to evaporate instantly—obsolete!

The Omnitrix's core was operating at overload, emitting a piercing screeching sound. It was battling the computational power of an Infinity Stones!

Finally, just as Jiang Li's consciousness was about to be completely Oblivion, the Omnitrix locked onto a gene.

Boom--!!!

A blinding burst of nuclear fusion light erupted from Jiang Li's location.

A mechanical life form, two meters tall, encased in heavy metal armor, with green nuclear liquid flowing from its chest and joints, forcefully pushed open the erasure field of the Reality Stone.

Atomix!

It doesn't need oxygen to breathe; it's a miniature nuclear reactor in itself. Most importantly, the enormous nuclear energy contained within its body, under the forced activation of the Omnitrix, formed a dense energy shield, briefly resisting the erosion of the laws of reality!

"Warning, physical erasure failed."

In mid-air, the electronic voice of Infinity Ultron stuttered slightly.

His core, composed of machinery and gems, seemed unable to comprehend why this carbon-based life form was still alive.

But this brief lag was enough for Jiang Li.

"Get off this earth!"

A roar erupted from beneath Jiang Li's helmet.

His legs were slightly bent, and the terrifying reaction force created a white sonic boom cloud in the Void Space beneath his feet.

Bang!

The Atomix transformed into a green nuclear meteor, instantly breaking through the vacuum's limitations and crashing violently into the Infinity Ultron in mid-air.

That's too fast!

This is the maximum power unleashed under the near-death mechanism.

Ultron had just raised his double-edged spear.

Jiang Li's powerful punch, gleaming with the light of nuclear fusion, slammed solidly into Ultron's silver-white Vibranium face.

When--!!!

A resounding metallic boom echoed through the sky.

The shock wave, visible to the naked eye, spreads in a ring shape.

Infinity Ultron's head snapped back, and his entire body was sent flying hundreds of meters away by the punch, crashing heavily through several buildings in the distance that hadn't completely dissipated.

As Ultron was blasted away, the light from the Reality Stone on his chest suddenly dimmed.

The spellcasting was interrupted.

"Call--!"

A strong wind swept back in. The surrounding atmosphere, which had been wiped out, instantly flowed back in, filling the vacuum zone.

Doctor Strange and Spider-Man on the ground gasped for air and coughed violently. They breathed greedily, feeling a sense of exhaustion as if they had just survived a disaster.

Jiang Li hovered in mid-air, the nuclear liquid in his chest heaving violently.

He glanced at the distant ruins, his expression extremely solemn.

If that punch had landed on the Zombie Thanos, it would have blasted his head and half his body to smithereens.

But when the blow struck the Vibranium body of Infinity Ultron, Jiang Li could even feel his metal finger bones throbbing slightly. Meanwhile, the opponent was merely interrupted in his spellcasting, and his armor didn't even dent.

If it weren't for the Failsafe mechanism of that Omnitrix that saved us, Earth would be gone by now.

"A conventional alien form wouldn't be able to defeat him."

Jiang Li's brain was working at lightning speed.

From the distant ruins, a silver-white figure slowly rose into the air. Infinity Ultron gripped his twin-bladed spear once more, and the six gems on his chest lit up simultaneously.

"Variable. Your existence violates the underlying logic. Execution: Final annihilation."

This time, he doesn't intend to alter reality; instead, he plans to use his power and the Space Stone to physically crush the entire Solar System.

"Stephen! Open the door!"

Jiang Li showed no intention of lingering in the fight, and suddenly turned his head to roar down.

Doctor Strange, clinging to his last breath, trembled as he drew circles in the air with his hands.

Golden sparks flashed as a portal to the Lunar Plumbers's base was barely opened.

Jiang Li swooped down, grabbed Doctor Strange and Spider-Man with both hands, and threw them into the portal like sandbags.

Then, one-hundredth of a second before Ultron's destructive beam struck, he plunged headfirst into the golden sparks.

Swish!

The portal closed instantly.

Boom--!!!

The next second, the location where Manhattan was originally was completely swallowed up by the destructive energy interwoven with six colors.

The Moon, the main base of the Plumbers.

The airlock door swung open, Jiang Li and the other two fell heavily to the floor.

The alarms blared wildly throughout the base.

"River!"

Gwen, dressed in a white uniform, rushed over anxiously. "The Earth's monitoring data is all messed up! What just happened?"

Jiang Li deactivated his transformation, panting heavily. His face was pale, a sign of weakness from pushing himself to the limit.

He looked up at the silver Grim Reaper floating above the Earth on the holographic screen above him.

"Gwen, activate maximum defense privileges and hold the base at all costs."

Jiang Li turned and strode towards the top-secret laboratory deep within the base.

"Since we can't win in the regular form..."

"Then let him see what a real cheat code is!"
