Rewrite Reality? I'll Rewrite Your Laws!
The blinding white light completely dissipated.
The moon was deathly silent.
A thin layer of cosmic dust floats on that smooth plain that was forcibly leveled and spans hundreds of kilometers. The million-strong mechanical army left not even a trace.
In the center of the plain, silver light shimmered.
Infinity Ultron slowly rose from the dust. For the first time ever, large patches of charred, melted marks appeared on his invincible armor made of pure Vibranium. The light from the Six Infinity Stones on his chest also became extremely flickering.
"Error. Physical resistance cannot overcome this energy threshold."
Ultron's electronic voice was no longer flat; it now carried a hint of anthropomorphic fury.
In a pure contest of numbers and firepower, he actually lost to a nuclear fusion machine created by a carbon-based biological being!
He raised his head and stared intently at the 150-meter-tall Atomic Way Big in front of him.
"Redefine kill strategy. Enable: Concept Erasure."
Ultron suddenly raised his double-edged spear, and the dark red Reality Stone on his chest instantly erupted with an unprecedentedly dazzling red light!
Buzz--!
The spatial laws governing the entire moon have been forcibly altered.
The vacuum zone, spanning tens of thousands of Cosmic Cube, surrounding the Atomic Way Big suddenly distorted violently, like the surface of water. Immediately afterward, the Reality Stone forcibly endowed the void with the properties of "matter."
The dark golden metal is proliferating wildly!
It's not ordinary steel, but Vibranium, the hardest metal in the Marvel Universe!
Tens of millions of tons of Vibranium appeared out of thin air and instantly converged around the Atomic Way Big, transforming into an extremely large, fully enclosed cube-shaped cage!
"Physical isolation. Real-world blockade."
Ultron clenched his left fist suddenly in mid-air.
Boom!
The enormous Vibranium cage began to shrink and collapse violently inward! He intended to use the absolute mass created by the Reality Stone to crush Jiang Li inside into a pulp!
Inside the cage.
The space was extremely compressed, and the massive body of Atomic Way Big Colossus was firmly stuck by the Vibranium walls that were pressing in from all sides.
"Click click click..."
The hard, atomic heavy armor rubbed violently against the Vibranium wall, sending up blinding Mars.
"Since they can't beat those who focus on physics, they're starting to play with concepts?"
Jiang Li's voice, like muffled thunder, echoed in the sealed cage. He could feel that the laws around him had been completely locked by the Reality Stone, and that he could not break through the Vibranium wall, which was tens of meters thick, with pure force.
"Okay. Let's do something even more outrageous then."
Swish!
Jiang Li's thoughts flashed.
The 150-meter-tall Atomic Way Big vanished instantly, turning into a streak of green light.
In the final tenth of a second before the Vibranium cage was about to completely close, Jiang Li suddenly crossed his hands and slapped the fusion watch face on his left and right wrists again!
Left side: [Upgrade / Upgrade]!
Right side: [Clockwork]!
Two completely different beams of genetic energy collided with a deafening roar!
Bang!
The enormous Vibranium cages crashed together seamlessly in space, transforming into a solid Vibranium cube.
Outside, Infinity Ultron lowered his spear.
"Target vital signs disappeared. Cleared..."
He hadn't even uttered the word "bi" yet.
Ultron's electronic eye suddenly shrank.
Suddenly, a drop of black and gold liquid seeped from the surface of that absolutely sealed solid Vibranium cube!
That's liquid metal!
But strangely, inside this liquid metal, there were countless extremely precise golden gears spinning wildly!
[Upgrade Clockwork]!
Jiang Li transformed into a pool of liquid computer virus possessing the laws of time!
The Vibranium wall indeed has no physical gaps. However, over time, even the arrangement of Vibranium atoms can create decay gaps of a fraction of a millisecond. Jiang Li directly used time acceleration to find the gaps in the Vibranium along the timeline and forcibly "penetrated" through them!
Swish!
The black-gold liquid metal launched itself into the air in an instant, heading straight for the Infinity Ultron in mid-air.
"Warning! Unknown high-dimensional energy entity approaching!"
Ultron's alarm system went off frantically. He immediately activated the Space Stone, attempting to teleport away and create distance.
"Click."
In space, a crisp clock chime suddenly rang out.
The golden gears inside the liquid metal suddenly spun.
Time Freeze!
Time within a 0.5-meter radius of Ultron was abruptly halted. The blue light of the Space Stone was stuck in mid-air, preventing the teleportation portal from opening.
Splat
Black and gold liquid metal was firmly stuck to Ultron's silver-white Vibranium face!
"Get out of here!"
Ultron let out a furious electronic voice, raising his hands as if to tear the thing off his face.
But Jiang Li has already transformed into the purest form of digital life.
The liquid metal instantly transformed into countless fine black data streams, which, like mercury spilling onto the ground, frantically drilled into his body through the gaps in Ultron's armor and the electronic components of his eyes!
"You like to alter reality?"
Jiang Li's metallic, ticking sound resonated directly within the core processor of Ultron.
"Then I'll change your underlying rules!"
Buzz!!!
Ultron's retina display screen instantly filled with red error pop-ups.
He felt extreme panic.
Because Jiang Li didn't attack his physical body, but instead directly invaded his "Soul Stone"—his underlying logic code pool!
A regular [Upgrade (Upgrade)] would be completely unable to breach Ultron's firewall, which is powered by the Infinity Stones.
But Jiang Li has fused with the [Clockwork]!
The black and gold data stream rampaged through Ultron's code pool.
What do you do when you encounter a firewall blocking your way?
Jiang Li directly manipulated the code's timeline, causing the firewall to revert to a state where it "hadn't been written yet," and then proceeded to penetrate it directly!
Using the laws of time to hack! This is a conceptual-level dimensional reduction attack!
"No! Stop! System privileges locked!"
Ultron struggled frantically in space, clutching his head tightly with both hands. The Six Infinity Stones on his chest, having lost the guidance of the main program, began to flicker erratically.
From Ultron's core perspective, a scene appeared that made this artificial intelligence feel "terrified".
His underlying logic code, which kills gods like chickens in the Multiverse and is regarded as absolute truth.
At this moment, it is being forcibly highlighted line by line.
Immediately afterwards.
[Delete -- Execute.]
[Core Instruction 001: Destroy all life...] The code disappeared!
[Delete -- Execute.]
[Infinity Stones Energy Management Protocol...] The code has disappeared!
Jiang Li was like an extremely irritable programmer, sitting inside Ultron's brain, frantically typing the backspace key.
"You are... deleting... me..."
Ultron's electronic voice began to malfunction and distort. His limbs stiffened and twitched like rusty machines. On his silver-white Vibranium armor, black and green circuit patterns belonging to the [Upgrade] began to appear uncontrollably.
His control over his body is being forcibly taken away!
[Delete -- Execute.]
With the disappearance of the last line of core defense code.
The red light in Infinity Ultron's eyes suddenly dimmed, and like a machine that had lost power, his body convulsed violently in space.
The Six Infinity Stones on his chest, which had been dazzlingly bright, instantly lost their main program's energy control. Their light quickly dimmed, and they turned into six ordinary colored stones.
The reality he had forcibly distorted returned to normal.
