In November 2005, Africa, the Nigerian savannah.

This small town called Nubani is very lively today. In fact, from the birth of this city to the present, it has never been as eye-catching as it is today.

Even though it was only 8 o'clock in the morning, journalists from all over the world’s large and small news media had already set up very spectacular rifles and short cannons on both sides of the wide road that had just been repaired in the small town of Nubani.

The reporters spoke various languages ​​and stood in front of the camera to introduce the audience to the situation at this time.

The sound of the camera taking pictures, the flashing light almost never stops, and behind these reporters, at the end of this wide road, is a huge, chic building.

It is a factory and the world's first smart machine center to be put into operation.

Of course, in the external publicity, the reporters did not mention the word Zhiji. They used "smart products". After all, in this season of 2005, the most intelligent products people come into contact with are the new sweeping robots, or It's something like a robotic arm in a manufacturing plant.

Most people, including these reporters, are unaware of the changes that this intelligent machine center will bring to the world today.

But at least for now, all journalists are praising the major advances in technology.

"In the past few months, we have repeatedly disclosed the construction progress of the Onika Group's smart product factory. Although it is very mysterious, we still find ways to find a lot of internal information."

In front of the camera, Eddie Brock, a well-known independent investigative reporter in San Francisco, wore his iconic black flight jacket and combed his hair-painted hair neatly, looking quite handsome and handsome, and There is no seriousness and rigidity of other media people, he is quite relaxed.

He waved a stack of documents in his hand to the camera, just like a talk show, he opened the document and said to the camera:

"Everyone knows that the Onika Group was founded 1 year ago, but I think it is difficult for everyone to guess that this mysterious, specializing in high-tech products, and in the past few months, many smart models have been released. Who is the major shareholder behind the company...well, I am not taking the opportunity to advertise, but its newly released smart speaker is really very useful."

Eddie told a joke to the camera, and he smiled himself. After the laugh, he turned the document mysteriously and turned to the camera, he said:

"Look here, friends, the shareholders of the Onika consortium include our well-known talented arms dealers, the famous Playboy, and the idol Tony Stark in the hearts of all men. Wow, when I last interviewed Tony, he I also vowed to tell me that Onika Group is great and has great potential. It turns out that he is advertising his products."

After a small explosion, Eddie did not continue to disclose more shareholders, on the one hand because those guys are not as topical as Tony Stark, on the other hand, other shareholders also beat Eddie in advance After greeting, they do not want to show their heads.

Yes, this is the rule that journalists need to follow...reporting news is risky, and a smart reporter needs to learn to avoid risks.

And beside Eddie Bullock, I don’t know if it was a coincidence. In short, another famous reporter wearing a blue floral dress, Ms. Louise Lian, is also similar to the upcoming Nubani intelligence. A warm-up report was made at the opening ceremony of the industrial zone.

Compared with Eddie’s relaxed and pleasant reporting method, Miss Louise is more dignified and serious. She is more like a traditional media reporter, but her high face value and precise and powerful language have also won her a lot. Loyal audience.

Louise doesn't really care about these warm-up reports now. Her very capable boyfriend Clark Kent has obtained the qualification for internal interviews for Louise through his mysterious and efficient "network".

After the opening ceremony, Louise will have the opportunity to conduct private interviews with the big people who attended the opening ceremony. For the editors of the "Planet Daily", compared to the popular ones, the same news broadcast and various reasons Only for the eye-catching lace tabloid news of the blogger, such a real and attractive private interview is the real gimmick.

Clark, with the camera under his direction, turned the camera to the smart industrial park at the rear. During the switch between long and short lenses, this warm-up report was over.

Clark turned off the camera. He took a bottle of water from his backpack and handed it to his already dry girlfriend. He said:

"Maybe after the report, Louise, we can take this opportunity to relax on the prairie."

"Okay."

While drinking water, Louise flicked her long hair. She blinked at Clark:

"I have a better idea. Let's take our annual leave and take a trip from the savannah to South Africa... the two of us haven't traveled together yet."

"Okay."

Clark pushed his glasses and showed a gentle smile. He said to his girlfriend:

"But I have to go home before Christmas, Martha made me have to go home... Seriously, I want to take you back together so they don't worry about me anymore."

"Go to see your parents?"

Louise was a little nervous at this moment. She held the water bottle in her hand. She said:

"Is this a little too fast..."

"No, no."

Clark reached out and took his girlfriend's hand. He said:

"They are all very good people. Believe me, they will not put pressure on you, just go to the farm and sit down. We will be able to return to New York after only 2 days."

"OK then."

Louise nodded. She looked back at the intelligent engineering behind her if she felt something. Several cars were parked there. Some people came out of the car. Louise hurriedly grabbed the camera in her hand and told Clark :

"Turn on the camera! Quickly, the representative of the World Security Council is coming...oh, my God, it's Alexander Pierce, he actually came in person! Wait, is the person next to him again?"

Louise placed the camera in front of her eyes and adjusted the focus. Soon, she locked Alexander Pearce with her cane and the guardian wearing a trench coat beside him.

Louise doesn't know the name and identity of the guy, but the last meeting of the Future Technology Foundation, including the scene of the report of the illegal human test accident in Mexico, has this figure.

Miss Reporter seriously doubted that this seemingly hazy guy should be a low-key, maybe a senior official engaged in secret work.

And while Louise was about to press the shutter to take a picture, Merlin, who accompanied Pierce out of the car, suddenly turned back.

In Louise's camera lens, she clearly saw Merlin smile a gentle smile at her, and just as Louise was about to take a picture, her camera suddenly shut down strangely.

"Damn it!"

Louise was taken aback. She picked up the camera and looked at it, and found that the machine was not broken, but what the **** was the sudden shutdown?

She turned her head to look at Eddie Brock, and the camera in the young reporter's hand seemed to be in trouble...

"This is certainly not a coincidence!"

Louise grabbed the camera and gritted her teeth as Merlin quickly disappeared behind the gate of the intelligent industrial park. She said:

"Wait, I will definitely catch you."

———————————————

"That was... Louise just now?"

Merlin sat in an unmanned electric car and drove towards the core building of the Zhiji Center. While looking at the elegant environment and transplanted trees in this large industrial park, he asked:

"It's Clark's girlfriend? Is Eddie Bullock standing beside her?"

"Yes, they are."

Icarus projected the photos and identity information of Louise and Eddie onto Merlin's lenses. She said:

"Miss Lian and Mr. Eddie seem to be very interested in you, Merlin."

"A lot of people are interested in me, Icarus, but I can't respond to their curiosity one by one. My time is precious."

Merlin reached out and waved to the big bald Lex Luther who was also sitting in a driverless car not far away. The latter also nodded to Merlin. Although the park is not yet open, some people with important identities, such as Pierce, such as Luther, such as Prince Techara and Queen Ororo of Vakanda, and Princess Surui, have already entered the park.

The opening ceremony that will be carried out in a while is only for ordinary people. At the opening ceremony, representatives of the Onika Group will only show some semi-intelligent products. The true role of the intelligent machine center will not be disclosed at this stage. .

The people are not yet ready to accept intellectual weapons.

In the next few years, Onika Group will slowly promote a series of smart products to the society at a speed consistent with the development of technology, and their ultimate products will have independent personality and complete thinking circuits. Intelligent robot.

But that's at least 3 or 4 years later...if all goes well.

"Merlin, you are here."

When Merlin reached the heart of the Zhijian Industrial Park, at the gate of a towering building called the Smart Tower, George, who was sitting in a suspended chair, also came out to greet him.

George is currently one of the chief designers of the Onika Group. This group is dominated by S.H.I.E.L.D., and its important staff are almost all employees of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Hi George, it's been a long time."

Merlin jumped from the smart car, he shook hands friendly with George, he said to Superman:

"Are you staying here for a few months? I went to the ghost base a few days ago. Moira asked me when I would transfer you back...Obviously, she missed you. Ha, Brother George, you are charming. Great."

"No kidding, Merlin."

George rubbed his forehead in distress. He said:

"You know, Moira just wanted me to go back to her weird experiments... It was terrible to fall in love with her, even if it was kissing, beware of the syringe in the girl's hand, seriously, I regret it."

"I don't know how other worlds are, but at least in our world, there is no regret to take medicine."

Merlin patted George on the shoulder. He said with pity:

"This thing is to buy away, not refundable."

"Forget it, don't talk about these things."

George didn't want to say too much on this issue. He manipulated the floating chair and waved to Merlin. He said:

"Come with me, the first test run of the Intelligence Machine Center is about to begin. All the scientists involved in the design are here, but unfortunately, Dr. Reed has gone to space, and he cannot see this destined to go down in history. It's a scene."

"Alright."

Merlin followed George into the Smart Tower. He looked at the futuristic sci-fi silver-gray corridor in the Smart Tower, as well as those anti-gravity escalators shining with blue light. He said:

"We can record it, and when Reed returns from space, he can still see the video material."

The two spoke, and quickly took the anti-gravity escalator to the central control room of the smart tower. As George said, this place is already full of people, most of them are members of the Future Technology Foundation, and even include the previous opposition. Tobion, the elite arms dealer of Zhizhi, and his daughter.

"Banna, how are you feeling recently?"

Merlin walked to the edge of the control room. He picked up the goblet on the table and stood behind the crowd in front of his eyes. The doctor of physics who had no sense of existence said:

"Why don't you see Betty?"

"She and Ms. Ororo, and Miss Poz are in the lounge."

Bruce Banner, the hazardous containment code 05084-2, said mildly to Merlin:

"She doesn't like smart machines very much. In fact, she is a technological conservative."

"Well, understandable."

Merlin nodded. He looked at Banner in front of him. In the perception of Lingshou, the vitality in Banner's body was incredibly active, but his emotions were stable. It seemed that he had adapted to his state.

"Your set of meditation is very useful, Merlin."

Banner said thanks to Merlin:

"Hulk hasn't appeared in 2 months."

"Keep it up, Banner, I hope it doesn't show up."

Merlin sipped his drink and said to Banner:

"We need your wisdom, not its power. At this stage, you are more important than him."

"Ok."

Banner, who had some messy hair, nodded, to be honest, his temper was really good without anger.

"Ding, Ding"

A crisp beat sounded in the crowd. Merlin and Banner looked back and saw Tony Stark in a sullen little dress standing in the middle of the crowd. He tapped the wine glass with a spoon to catch everyone's attention. All attracted to him.

He said to others:

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have gathered together with our wisdom, and finally come to the present step. What is in front of us is the crystallization of the most outstanding wisdom of mankind. It represents not only the progress of science and technology, as we have done. Say, it represents the gate of the new world..."

"Now, we are going to push it away."

Tony blinked at everyone, he asked:

"Before that, out of politeness, I still have to ask, is there anyone opposed to the opening of this door? Tobion, you old grumpy man, why didn't you talk?"

"Shet!"

The named dwarf arms dealer rudely gestured to Tony with a middle finger, which caused other people to laugh, and the atmosphere immediately became active.

"Alright alright."

Tony didn't care too, he put his finger on the red start button beside him, and then raised the glass to everyone, he said calmly:

"Respect for the future!"

"Respect for the future!"

In the call of people, Tony pressed that button, and the next moment, the whole smart tower...

Alive.
