Lu Mingfei doesn’t want to be a superhero

In Tony's mirror space world.

Mirror space should essentially be regarded as an inanimate world that corresponds to reality. Although it is not at the same level as the concept of "universe", there is no doubt about its internal vastness.

Therefore, the "Deadpool Barracks" built by Tony is particularly grand in scale, and the huge building is as grand as a temple.

And it was in the center of this building that Lu Mingfei, Tony and Dr. Banner stood in front of a huge holographic screen. The pale yellow luminous clusters on the screen slowly changed like a galaxy.

This is the super artificial intelligence created by Tony and Dr. Banner with reference to the structure in the Mind Stone - Ultron.

"Dear Creators, I am honored to take on the responsibility of guarding this world."

Ultron's voice is electronically synthesized, but it doesn't sound too mechanical. It's more like an ordinary person with a gentle voice.

"Is this Ultron?" Lu Mingfei looked at the screen up and down, curious, "Tony, how much better is Ultron than Jarvis?"

It is certain that Ultron is more powerful than Jarvis, not to mention that its creator was Tony, who created Jarvis, and used the Infinity Stones as a blueprint. The key reason why Ultron was created was because of Tony. After calculating with Banner, it was found that Jarvis's performance was not enough to perfectly control an army of Deadpool.

"Ultron," Tony and Banner looked satisfied, almost saying in unison, "He has unlimited potential."

"Infinite potential?" Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment.

"Ultron is a true artificial intelligence that can learn. It should be said that in terms of simple learning and thinking, there is no difference between him and real intelligent life." Tony said.

"Thanks to the internal structure of that gem as a reference," Banner said, "otherwise we would not have been able to create such a perfect artificial life."

"My birth is a combination of the wisdom of two people and the coincidence of fate," Ultron said, "and I will definitely take on the mission entrusted to me by fate."

"Is it really okay for your artificial intelligence to talk about such nonsense as destiny?" Lu Mingfei complained.

"This is just a rhetorical metaphor," Ultron said. "I'm sorry if it misunderstood you."

"Ultron should actually be considered a baby now. He still needs to learn, but it won't take too long," Tony said. "When Ultron grows into a qualified leader, he can serve as the commander of the Deadpool Legion. Come to protect the earth.”

"Hmm... I think Ultron may need another body, what do you think?" Dr. Banner said.

"What does he need his body for? He is the commander-in-chief of the Deadpool Legion. Have you ever seen any commander personally go to the battlefield to kill people?" Tony complained, "And all our Deadpool soldiers use electronic brains, and there is no such thing." Morale' exists."

"But don't you think it's weird that the commander of the Deadpool Legion doesn't even have a body?" Banner said, "And we can make his body into a mobile core processor, so that even if it appears, it will attack Ultron. For enemies with a host, Ultron can also transfer and retreat with the temporary host in his body.”

"When you say that...it seems to be of some practical significance." Tony nodded.

"To support enough computing power, we have to build a very large body," Lu Mingfei said. "Does such a body lack combat effectiveness and mobility?"

Tony and Banner looked at each other and were equally aware of this problem.

"Hey, I thought about it," Lu Mingfei suddenly slapped the experimental table, "Dr. Zhao and I have just perfected the regenerative cradle. We can use the technology of the regenerative cradle and combine it with Tony's dragon blood metal to create a computing, A body that is both functional and mobile for combat.”

"The biggest disadvantage of new technology is that it cannot transform the parts related to the brain. But Ultron is an artificial intelligence. The last thing we need is a brain. We can just use data to control the body." After a pause, Lu Mingfei added.

"It makes sense!" Tony's eyes lit up, "Let's go take a rest first and let's discuss what to do together tomorrow."

…

In a building as empty as a temple.

As Lu Mingfei and the others left, the metal door closed, and the entire building fell into a trance.

On the high metal platform in the center of the hall, the holographic screen was still open. The pale yellow galaxy on the screen moved slowly, and the light changed accordingly, illuminating the Deadpools who stood like terracotta warriors below.

These fully mechanized Deadpools fell into a vegetative state due to the shutdown of their electronic brains. Their bodies fell into a more energy-saving physiological mode than hibernation, and their breathing was undetectable.

Combined with the metalized scales on its surface, as well as the tail tips and wing tips formed by spreading iron crystals, it looks like countless neatly arranged iron sculptures.

Suddenly, the holographic screen on the high platform in the center of the hall changed. It no longer showed the egg yolk galaxy. Instead, the screen went black for a moment, and then a line of bright red Bible prayers slowly appeared -

I have not come to bring peace to the earth, but to bring war on the earth.

…

The next day, in Tony's mirror space, the Metallurgical District.

Above Michael's complex and huge smelting furnace, countless red liquid metals emerged in mid-air, and then gathered, fell, and flowed into the smelting furnace as if they were poured into a transparent funnel.

"It's so easy to use." Although Michael had been making metal for a long time, Tony still couldn't help but sigh.

Then he looked at Lu Mingfei with some discrimination: "Why can't you do it?"

Lu Mingfei was confident.

Although he has obtained the power of Constantine, he can theoretically release the heaven and earth as a furnace, but in fact... he can indeed do it, provided that he continues to explore and practice.

Once you have authority, you don't have to be proficient in Max from the beginning. Otherwise, after Norton lent him authority, Tang's combat effectiveness should be as good as Norton's.

What's more, Heaven and Earth as a Furnace is not a word spirit in the general sense, but a highly difficult operation at the top of the metal system. From a certain perspective, the technical difficulty of releasing this word spirit is no less difficult than that of a candle dragon.

Of course, even so, Lu Mingfei was very sure that as long as he was willing to concentrate on studying for a period of time and discuss his experience with Norton or Michael, he could still learn this language spirit.

The problem is...if he learned it, wouldn't there be one more coolie above the smelting furnace?

Just like at work, unless there is something wrong with the leader who assigns tasks, colleagues with poor abilities will definitely not be assigned difficult tasks, because the leader also knows that he cannot complete the tasks assigned to him.

Employees with outstanding personal abilities may not be promoted faster than others. Instead, they are more likely to take on extra work because of the "more capable people".

For example, a leader wants to write a speech for a meeting, but he cannot write it himself. The secretary he hired has another purpose and is not good at writing, so he outsources it to a subordinate at will - of course, the kind of outsourcing without compensation.

If a subordinate's writing is average or even a little poor, he will definitely not be contacted next time, but if that subordinate's completion is extremely perfect... there is no doubt that he will definitely write all future speeches.

So this arduous task should always be left to Michael. Who makes Michael his archangel?

Moreover, Michael was obviously very happy and proud of his work. It was better not to compete with him for the glory of labor.

Lu Mingfei stood under the furnace without any psychological burden and watched Michael working hard - even with Michael's bloodline, he was sweating at the moment after producing such a large amount of alchemical metals for a long time.

"Unfortunately, although the mirror space is good, everything cannot be taken out. What is needed can only be brought in from outside or made by Michael." Tony shook his head in regret.

Except that there is no life in the mirror space, everything corresponds to the original space, but this does not mean that the resources in the mirror space can also be transported to the original world.

If there is such a good thing, any mage who can open the mirror space will become prosperous, directly mine oil and precious metals from the mirror space, and export them to the original world in large quantities, without any capital or huge profits.

"These should be enough, right?" Banner said, "How about asking Michael to stop? I think he is a little tired."

Michael looked down at Banner and Tony in mid-air.

Although he really wanted to show off in front of the Lord, his physical exertion was indeed huge, so he quite agreed with Banner's suggestion - as long as the metal in the semi-smelting furnace below was enough, he could legitimately take a rest.

There is no need to grit your teeth and persist like now.

Anyway, in front of His Majesty God, he must not take the initiative to say that he can't do it, otherwise it would be too embarrassing for him as the first archangel under God.

"It should be close. Our goal is to create a dragon-shaped mechanical life similar to the giant body that Michael built in Sokovia at that time, and it is not the type of Deadpool that is mainly biological tissue and supplemented by metal materials. ," Tony said, "What we need to do is to create mechanical life entirely out of dragon blood metal, with metal as the main factor."

"It's also because we calculated too accurately before and asked Michael to make as much as we needed. As a result, after transforming all the Deadpools, they were all used up, and there was not a single bit left. If there was any left, Michael Le can relax now."

fart! Even if there is any leftover, it was all created by me! Michael's chest rose and fell in mid-air. If he hadn't been in front of God, he would have scolded Tony.

If he had enough knowledge of Chinese, he would have directly used an idiom to describe what Tony just said—chasing around.

"But it's the right time to make it now. Michael can make some alchemical metals of better quality than before. After all, it is the commander's body, so it is better to be stronger." After calculating twice with his fingers, Tony said: "I'll do the math. Forget it, this bit of metal...well, I guess it's only half enough, right?"

The metallic liquid flowing in mid-air seemed to shake.

"Come on, Michael! Half of your work is done!" Tony synthesized the trumpet with both hands and shouted towards Michael in mid-air.

Michael's eyelids twitched wildly.

Damn it! He actually thought that this mortal named Tony Stark had some merits! Now it seems that he was definitely deceived by this greedy, cunning and cunning mortal!

"Come on, Michael!" Lu Mingfei cheered for Michael nonchalantly.

"Follow your oracle, my lord!" Michael suddenly became excited, and the torrent of metallic liquid in mid-air flowed significantly faster.

"You seem to have experienced the joy of being a capitalist." Tony complained at the side.

Why do I think this is the happiness of slave owners. In front of Michael, Lu Mingfei still didn't have the nerve to say this.

"By the way, don't you need dragon's blood to make dragon's blood metal?" Banner looked at Tony, "To make such a large mechanical body, a massive amount of dragon's blood is needed to synthesize the metal. Can Michael hold it? "

"It doesn't matter, we can turn him into a giant body and provide blood." Tony suggested a way.

Michael shook in mid-air and almost fell into the furnace.

Even through the torrent of red metal, Tony seemed to be able to see those metal dragon eyes staring at him.

"Ahem," Tony put his arm on Lu Mingfei's shoulder, "Come on, Mingfei, let's design the internal structure of Ultron's body. Uh... let's go to my laboratory to design it, and don't bother in the mirror space. Michael."

Under Michael's eyes, which looked like he wanted to skin someone, Tony pulled Lu Mingfei and Dr. Banner out of the mirror space.

…

In the moment when the mirror space was opened and closed, and the connection with the outside world was established, it was invisible to the naked eye. Even Tony did not use the "snake" to notice the flow of information, "flowing" from the hall of the mirror space to the outside world.

At the data level that no one can detect, the special life subroutine named "Ultron" looks at his hand in the form of countless strings of "0" and "1": "No, not yet." Not the time. But soon..."

In a small city far away from New York, in an Internet cafe that was on the verge of bankruptcy and with almost no customers, a computer started up without warning, and a line of bright red Hebrew appeared on the dark screen.

“I have not come to bring peace on earth, but sword.”

The network administrator, who was sleepy after drinking too much alcohol, relied on his remaining professional ability to detect an abnormally lit screen. After discovering that he could not shut down the host through his own main control machine, he stood staggeringly. Come and walk over and prepare to physically turn off the screen.

After being stumbled twice in the dark room, the administrator finally walked to the screen. The original bloody Hebrew text changed again, replaced by a simple sentence in English——

"Do you desire wealth and power?"

The manager was so frightened that he woke up from his drink.

…

Lu Mingfei walked out of Tony's laboratory and stayed in his own guest room at Tony's house.

Dr. Zhao left yesterday, saying that she was going back to sort out the technology of regenerative cradle, and to think about the future development direction of this technology and the timing of its introduction. Then she would make a report and discuss it with Lu Mingfei. .

Anyway, neither she nor Lu Mingfei were short of money. They didn't need to rely on technology to make money. Important technology like the regeneration cradle should be prepared before it is brought out.

Of course, Lu Mingfei doesn't care much about these now. His attention is mainly on Ultron's body design.

The design of Ultron's new body went smoothly, but Tony insisted on using a large amount of dragon blood to synthesize dragon blood metal. According to the proportions he proposed, Ultron's body that will be synthesized with dragon blood metal is really It can be said to be a half-biological, half-mechanical structure.

Lu Mingfei even suspected that the body might release the spirit of speech like Deadpool.

"Well... the premise is that the artificial intelligence Ultron is strong enough to simulate the existence of 'spirit' or 'soul', then it is possible to release the spirit of speech, right?" Lu Mingfei said to himself while lying on the bed.

"But isn't he just an artificial soul?" The little devil's voice sounded from the bedside.
