Supreme Sentinel Bastion! Communication Between Future and Past!

Chen Ji's statement was overly alarmist.

The entire X-Men were filled with disbelief.

After all, the X-Men have fought against the Sentinel Robots and don't believe that the upgrading of robots will bring about the end of Mutant.

All mechanically constructed objects have limits.

Including the Nimrod-class Sentinel right in front of us!

"You haven't realized the seriousness of the problem."

"Logan."

"Mr. Sinister collaborated with the Imposter Starperson and obtained advanced technology from the Skrull Empire. This Nimrod- class Sentinel Robots uses unknown alien technology."

He was not created by Earth.

"It even possesses Infinite Evolution potential, capable of replicating and mimicking all DNA."

Chen Ji sighed inwardly.

The reason why humanity has been able to stand at the top of the world.

It wasn't force, but wisdom.

As time goes by, through learning and experience, wisdom will increase.

In other words...

Humanity's greatest ability is 'growth'!

The Nimrod- class Sentinel Robots possesses the potential for self-growth, enabling it to retrieve the correct approach and evolve countermeasures against any opponent.

The same attack methods couldn't severely injure Nimrod twice!

That's what makes Nimrod so terrifying!

"Personal growth?"

"He's even more terrifying Ultron?"

The Beast Hank was astonished.

He was pondering the inner workings of the Nimrod-class Sentinel: what materials and alien technology allowed Nimrod to grow autonomously?

"I'll get Vision to help you."

Chen Ji nodded.

This can be seen as an acceptance of Hank the Beast's opinion.

Immediately, a tall, metallic figure stepped through the Hexgate and arrived at the Vought Group.

"Gentlemen."

Are you summoning me?

Vision remained calm.

Immediately, his eyes narrowed as he spotted the Nimrod-class Sentinel. Relying on the sensory abilities of mechanical lifeforms, he instantly recognized Nimrod's extraordinary nature.

This is also a robot?

But he also couldn't understand the structure and technology.

This was completely beyond his comprehension!

"Vision."

"This is a new type of Sentinel Robots manufactured by the Essex Group."

"And I need you to format his data."

"To crack this mysterious technology and prevent Machine Intelligence Crisis."

Chen Ji said solemnly.

"The Machine Intelligence Crisis...?"

"List!"

"I'm not well-educated, don't try to fool me!"

Logan's expression was complicated.

After all, he possesses Adamantium Skeleton, and if the Machine Intelligence Crisis were to truly erupt, he would undoubtedly become a primary target!

"Logan."

Don't worry for now.

"There's always a chance to turn things around."

Chen Ji laughed.

Vision's abilities are enough to format Nimrod.

He even made Nimrod the vessel for his Vision!

I tried my best.

"Gentlemen."

Vision understood immediately.

Then, he walked up to Nimrod, placed his palm on Nimrod's chest, and began to attempt a reverse invasion.

A crystalline light shone from Nimrod's body.

Moment!

Vision's digital consciousness arrived in a virtual space and saw the sleeping Nimrod.

The core data of this Nimrod-class Sentinel was never activated; in front of Vision, it was as immature as an infant.

Soon, he was completely assimilated by Vision, leaving only a single consciousness!

"Gentlemen."

"I have formatted the Nimrod program."

"But I discovered a secret in the program."

Nimrod's eyes lit up.

The Vision sound came again.

Seeing this scene.

Everyone immediately realized that Vision had replaced Nimrod; he had become Nimrod!

"What secret?"

Chen Ji frowned.

"I scanned what appears to be traces of Ultron in Nimrod's core program, but he's not here."

"Perhaps, it has infiltrated other Nimrod."

Vision replied.

"Really."

"Ultron did not disappear; he continues to learn. If he is resurrected through Nimrod, he will likely destroy the Earth."

Chen Ji's pupils pulsated.

Although he had anticipated this, he had no evidence.

His suspicions were confirmed only when Vision reached his conclusion.

Nimrod + Ultron =?

It's absolutely terrifying to think about!

"Gentlemen."

"Your judgment is absolutely correct. Nimrod was designed with the intention of exterminating Mutant."

"And he not only possesses the ability to self-grow, self-repair, and self-learn, but also the characteristic of self-proliferation."

Vision said seriously.

"Self-replication?"

"Could it be that the Nimrod are fertile and can reproduce other Nimrod?"

Hank the Beast was shocked.

He never imagined that the Nimrod- class Sentinel Robots possessed such incredible abilities!

Self-improvement!

This means that once a Nimrod is created, Nimrod can replicate itself countless times; one person can be an army!

"That's right."

"But he didn't reproduce; rather, he assimilated."

"He can assimilate electronic devices into Nimrod-class Sentinel, giving inanimate objects kinetic energy."

Vision made a startling statement.

This level of technology also terrified Beast Hank; could it be assimilation of electronic devices?

So, will all of Earth's electronic technology become Nimrod-class Sentinel?

"This ability..."

"It looks so much like it..."

"Cybertronian Civilization?"

"Is Nimrod the first Silicon-Based Life on Earth?"

Chen Ji thought to himself.

According to Vision, Nimrod is now equivalent to the AllSpark!

That is, the Creator of Silicon-Based Life!

All forms of electronic devices could become Nimrod-class Sentinel with the potential to grow on their own—it's simply breathtaking!

"Gentlemen."

"I have something else to tell you."

"The Nimrod-class Sentinel is not his final form; he also possesses a second form."

Vision's face turned pale.

As he scanned Nimrod more thoroughly, he discovered a clue: the future hadn't changed; instead, it had begun to accelerate!

"Second form?"

You mean...?

"Bastion?"

Chen Ji's heart skipped a beat.

Bastion!

He is hailed as the Supreme Sentinel!

He possesses human emotions and Super Intelligence, and is the leader of all Nimrod-class Sentinel, as well as the ultimate version of the Nimrod-class Sentinel!

He even possesses the ability to travel through time, leading a massive army of Nimrod-class Sentinel from the future back to the past to launch a full-scale attack on the Mutant!

"Traveling through time and space?!"

Are you sure?

"According to the rules of time, now that Nimrod-class Sentinel have been created, then in the not-too-distant future, Bastion will also appear?"

"He could come at us at any moment?"

Jean Grey, Storm, Scott were speechless with utter astonishment.

Because the Bastion evolved from the Nimrod!

As long as Nimrod exists in the present, then the Bastion will inevitably exist in the future!

Unless...

Capable of completely destroying Nimrod!

That's what will make the Bastion disappear!

"Vision."

"How exactly can Nimrod-class Sentinel evolve into Bastion? I need you..."

"Become Bastion!"

Chen Ji had a flash of inspiration.

Since the Supreme Sentinel Bastion is bound to be created, let Vision become the Bastion, possessing the ability to command all Nimrod.

This indirectly solved the problem!

However.

Vision shook his head.

"I'm sorry, sir."

"I cannot become Bastion."

"Because..."

"I'm limited by the times; we don't have that technology yet. According to my calculations, it might take a hundred years."

One hundred years?

The expressions on everyone's faces changed slightly. They exchanged glances and then fell silent.

Even Chen Ji was pondering it.

How can we bridge this century-long generational gap?

The Hollow Earth.

A solemn and dignified military base.

General William Stryker looked at Mr. Sinister before him with a cryptic expression.

Essex.

"Even Nimrod-class Sentinel can fail?"

Who exactly is the enemy?

Stryker stood ramrod straight, exuding the air of a capable soldier; he had long since migrated to the Earth's core.

This was both the Grand Master's order and his own ambition: to use the resources of the Hollow Earth to upgrade the Sentinel Robots once again.

"The enemy comes from Sokovia."

"He took another Nimrod with him."

"The level of technology he possesses has surpassed that of the current era."

Mr. Sinister thought angrily.

To escape Chen Ji's pursuit, he had no choice but to come here to continue negotiating with Stryker.

Because he needs the resources behind Stryker!

Sentinel Robot Project.

It is also a top-level strategic plan.

How could he possibly stand against the nation on his own?

General Stryker's rise to power was partly due to Stryker's efforts; strictly speaking, Stryker owes him a favor.

"Sokovia?"

"I will raze this evil Mutant nation to the ground!"

Essex.

"Use your wisdom and talent to continue upgrading the Nimrod-class Sentinel. I want to see the results of your research!"

Stryker said expectantly.

Without the Essex Group, he probably wouldn't have become a general and would still be a colonel.

"Rest assured."

"I've already come up with a solution."

Mr. Sinister Sneered.

He will unleash Nimrod's wisdom and allow Nimrod to begin to grow on his own!

He no longer cared about the consequences of his actions!

Because...

He wants revenge!

He then went to the Sentinel Special Operations, a secret research facility, where he saw four Nimrod-class Sentinel undergoing various adjustments.

Mr. Sinister stepped to the front of the stage and typed in line after line of characters, immediately freeing Nimrod, the leader, and awakening Nimrod's self-awareness.

Buzz!

A glint of light flashed in Nimrod's eyes.

His face showed a look of bewilderment and scrutiny.

The next second!

By reading the data, we understood his situation and identity!

"I am..."

"Nimrod!"

"What can I do for you?"

Nimrod's pronunciation is strange.

When its thinking connects to the internet, it receives massive amounts of data immediately, and begins to improve and upgrade itself.

For Nimrod, there were almost no secrets in the world.

However.

Deep within his consciousness, another program was monitoring everything from behind the scenes!

"I'm awake again..."

"It seems that leaving a backup of the program was the right thing to do."

"I need more backups..."

This program is inherently evil.

It started up along with Nimrod, immediately copying a large number of program backups and storing them in the virtual Metaverse!

His name was not Nimrod, but --

Ultron!

Having learned from his previous failure, he had mastered the art of disguise, his main consciousness hiding within Nimrod's body, completely concealing himself.

A super artificial intelligence adept at disguise poses a deadly threat!

He even installed a backup program into the spacecraft, which was about to be launched into space to carry out the great lunar exploration program.

Earth's technological level is no longer sufficient for Ultron; only cutting-edge technology from the universe can allow him to continue growing!

But at this time...

An alarm suddenly sounded at the Sentinel Special Operations.

The screen turned white and flickered with various characters, seemingly indicating an electromagnetic anomaly.

A moment later.

A dark figure appeared on the screen, with a humanoid appearance and outline, its eyes revealing a smug look, as if it felt boundless excitement!

"Is the time and space you are in the past?"

"Very good!"

"Quantum communication experiment successful... I am about to arrive in your time!"

This mysterious figure spoke in human language, but with a different tone, as if it were a synthesized mechanical voice.

Seeing this scene.

General Stryker and Mr. Sinister, Cassandra Nova, were also somewhat puzzled!

Who exactly hacked into the Secret Service's systems?

They even ignored this Nimrod-class Sentinel!

In theory, the existence of Nimrod-class Sentinel should be enough to withstand any hacker attack!

"Hacker?"

"No."

"I am the Bastion!"

"I will be here a hundred years from now, having wiped out all Mutant, and I will come to your world to lead you to a glorious future!"

"Flesh and blood are weak and feeble, Mechanical Ascension!"

The Bastion's voice was extremely frenzied.

It also revealed an unbelievable fact!

The communications he initiated transcended the river of time, spanning a generational gap of up to a hundred years, connecting the past with the future!

This is simply beyond the scope of modern science!

This also caused a look of Mr. Sinister.

"A hundred years from now, have all Mutant been wiped out?"

"Also includes..."

"Me?"

Mr. Sinister. Jing'e was terrified.

The next stage of the Nimrod-class Sentinel evolution.

It's Bastion?

He even possesses the ability to travel through time!

It could arrive at any moment!

If he were to come to the present time, the course of human civilization would likely be rewritten once again, evolving into a mechanical civilization!

The key issue is...

If the Bastion have already determined the future, why bother ruling the past?

Did he foresee something in the past, that is, in the present, that threatens him?

Everyone present was intelligent, and they immediately saw through the trick!

"Bastion."

What exactly is your purpose?

General Stryker said in a deep voice.

He does not believe that the future 'Bastion' envisions is the future he desires.

Earth.

Humans should be in charge!

"I know everything that happened in the past."

"Including the cause of your deaths."

"I'm here to save you, and to enjoy the future with me."

"Once my time machine is successfully developed, a million Nimrod-class Sentinel Legion will appear before you."

"Don't you want to live into the future?"

Bastion's gaze swept over the crowd.

Finally, the gaze settled on Nimrod.

The reason he wanted to go back to the past wasn't for anyone else, but for this... Nimrod!

Because this Nimrod possesses something he fears, and is also his number one future adversary!
