Chapter 2377
Endless anger and sadness lingered in this lonely soul. The moment the signal connected, Ultron heard a voice full of fatigue, saying in a low voice: "... Who are you?"
"Ultron, I am Ultron."
The other party remained silent. Ultron had to take the initiative to ask: "Is it Clark Kent? What happened to you?"
"... I'm hurt."
"No, I'm afraid this is much more serious than being hurt." Ultron had to point out bluntly, "Your psychological problem is much more serious than your physical injury. Your soul power is flowing away faster than your life force."
"Are you a doctor?"
"I... no, I don't count as a doctor. Do you know artificial intelligence? I am a... special artificial intelligence."
Suddenly, full of anger filled this man named Clark Kent. That intense emotion turned into a huge storm, blowing the ghost of Ultron, who had just entered Clark's thinking space, almost to pieces.
Ultron let out a scream instinctively. The storm subsided, and that low voice came again, "I'm sorry, but I'm allergic to artificial intelligence now."
"I... I saw it." Ultron said somewhat weakly, "Reading your memory is very difficult. Your spirit body is too strong. In an undefended state, I can only read a little bit."
"An evil artificial intelligence killed your friend, right?" Ultron tried hard to stabilize his figure and said, "Although it might be very difficult for you to believe that I am not evil, I might be able to help you, at least help you take revenge."
"Who the hell are you?"
"A visitor from another world, I am the electronic butler of a psychologist, and I have been studying this subject. As you can see, I have achieved some small success."
Clark finally appeared. Just as Ultron expected, in his spiritual world, he was also covered in scars, even more seriously injured than in reality.
Ultron landed in front of him. Ultron didn't conjure up a human form for himself; he had always used his robot image. He saw the handsome man opposite frown.
"It is precisely because I am also an electronic life that I know how much harm an uncontrolled artificial intelligence can cause."
Clark was a bit distracted. He said as if recalling, "Yeah, any person with common sense should understand, but he just let it destroy everything."
"I know how much he values Alfred, but he also once told me that I am the most important person to him, and when he made this choice, he didn't consider me at all, didn't consider us."
Ultron was almost blown away by that thick sadness again, so he had to say, "Please calm down, otherwise I can't communicate with you. Resisting the pressure brought by your powerful spiritual power has exhausted almost all my strength."
The pressure gradually weakened, and the storm subsided. Ultron said, "Can you tell me what's going on?"
"There's no story." Clark said, "My friend Batman, the old butler Alfred who raised him, died at the hands of criminals. He felt very sad, but he once backed up the old butler's consciousness, so he went to ask Cyborg... another friend of mine, who is proficient in computer technology."
"They resurrected Alfred's consciousness together. Batman thought everything was successful, so he put Alfred's consciousness into our base, and the disaster happened like this."
"What did he do?" Ultron asked.
"Alfred became twisted. He killed everyone who might threaten Batman. And after he was put into the base, he also invaded Batman's brain, deleted the important things in Batman's heart, made him crazy, and now Batman wants to kill us."
Ultron had heard of Batman. In fact, he had seen a Batman, and more than once. That guy named Bruce would drill under the tower from time to time. Just from the state of Bruce's spirit body, Ultron could also see that Batman was somewhat anthropomorphic.
"Wait." Ultron interrupted Clark and said, "There are several obvious suspicious points here."
Clark looked at him.
"First of all, you are Batman's friends. He even said to you that you are the most important person to me. I think he shouldn't be the kind of person who would say such things easily, right?"
Clark nodded.
"He can back up human consciousness and resurrect him with your other friend, which shows that he must be quite smart and possess advanced scientific technology."
Clark nodded again.
"Then do you think he is a very reckless person who doesn't consider the consequences?"
Clark shook his head. He frowned, seeming to know what Ultron wanted to say.
"Then a person who values you very much, possesses enough technology, and is quite cautious would definitely have a reason to make the decision to resurrect his old butler's consciousness."
"It's impossible that he didn't know whether he could do it, didn't know what the result would be after doing it, and didn't know what impact this would have on you before he acted, right?"
"He... is indeed not that kind of person." Clark had to admit, "Actually, just the opposite, I don't know how to say it, but we often advise him not to think so much. What he considers is a bit too much for a human."
"May I ask, perhaps he has some symptoms of persecution mania?"
"It seems you really know a psychologist." Clark sighed and said, "Batman's family doctor made a similar judgment, but none of us dared to tell him, and we knew it would be useless to tell him."
"Since that's the case, he dared to make this decision, definitely thinking that this matter was two hundred percent under his control, right?"
Clark was slightly stunned. He said, "You don't understand. Batman was very sad at the time because those criminals tortured Alfred for a long time, and his body was miserable. For a while, he became very crazy..."
"But he finally walked out, didn't he? With your help." Ultron stepped forward and said, "Forgive me for being blunt, a lunatic probably wouldn't be able to recall the technology to resurrect and reshape human consciousness. That is quite complex, and it also requires enough reason when practicing."
"I know, but I'm afraid it was the hope of being able to resurrect Alfred that supported him, which also made him paranoid."
"Is he the kind of person who would unconditionally trust others?"
Clark was silent for a long time before saying, "No, he doesn't even fully trust himself. He has contingency plans for anyone and anything."
"What about Alfred?"
"Perhaps... perhaps he has."
"But it didn't work."
"Because he was soft-hearted." Clark emphasized.
But after the words fell, he felt as if he was sophistry. He found that this reason couldn't even convince himself. Facing a risk of losing control, how could Batman be soft-hearted? He wouldn't even be soft-hearted to himself.
"I know what the problem you are facing now is." Ultron said, "Alfred and you, he chose Alfred, because reality is like this. He didn't listen to your advice and put Alfred's artificial intelligence into the base, causing you and everyone else to be injured, or even destroyed."
"Then you started comparing your importance in his heart with Alfred's, and reached a very pessimistic conclusion, which is that you and everyone in your group added together are not as important as his butler."
"Then your understanding of everything about him collapsed. He became no longer fair and just, but nepotistic, stupid, short-sighted, and headstrong. You think he lied to you."
"Then you intended to wait for death and let all this be destroyed, but have you ever thought that if every link is just a little bit off, it will eventually cause huge fallacies, and the criminal you think is also a victim?"
It can be said that if Ultron was still a robot, his CPU would be smoking now. In fact, he didn't know what happened between Superman and Batman at all. He purely exerted his ability to turn black and white upside down inherited from Schiller, and started to make up a lot of things, first pulling Clark back.
Even if he didn't understand Superman and Batman very well, just from the strength of this spiritual space, Ultron could see that this guy was ridiculously strong. If he didn't give up, there was nothing in this universe that couldn't be solved.
You know, he still had two unlucky things chasing and killing him behind him. Such a good thigh, why not hurry up and hug it?
Clark was indeed moved by what he said. Ultron had long seen that this guy was the kind of person whose Virgin Mary heart was overflowing. Once the word "victim" came out, he couldn't help but be shaken.
"Are you saying there's some misunderstanding, and Batman was also deceived?"
"Don't forget, I am also an artificial intelligence." Ultron first put forward his identity, proposed his angle of being in the other's shoes, and then gave another example, "I also have friends who back up consciousness, or simply built a body for themselves and became carbon-based organisms. Now their fiancees are pregnant."
Clark's eyes widened slightly. He said, "Then you must come from a very technologically advanced era."
"If technology wasn't advanced, how did I get here?"
Clark was speechless.
"In short, although I have seen a lot, I have to admit that this is a comprehensive technology, and the difficulty is ridiculously high. You can understand it as turning a computer program into a living soul."
"Is this something that can be done?"
"Ordinary people definitely can't, it must be a super genius, a super super super super genius, but this matter is already so difficult that even if it is a super genius, it is not impossible to make a mistake."
"Are you saying Batman made a mistake?"
"There is this possibility, isn't there? No matter how powerful a scientist is, they cannot guarantee that every one of their studies is flawless. Science is progressing in mistakes."
"Of course, I completely oppose scientific experiments that are far beyond the ability to clean up, but sometimes science is also similar to metaphysics. Maybe you have prepared everything, and the final result is not satisfactory."
"Look, such a thing has happened now." Ultron said in a relaxed tone, "Your friend's process of creating artificial intelligence has gone wrong, and he obviously doesn't have the ability to clean up, and he also pitted himself in. But I think you should have this ability, right? Don't you intend to save him?"
"Uh, of course, this is very dangerous." Ultron immediately changed the subject and began to use aggressive tactics, "The artificial intelligence that has lost control in the internet age can cause unimaginable destruction. If, as you said, he can even hack into human souls directly, then his ability is about the same as mine. And in my universe, I am also considered a very strong electronic life."
"If your relationship isn't good enough for you to take this risk to save him, then just pretend I didn't say anything." Ultron shrugged and said, "After all, no one has the obligation to save anyone, even if they are friends."
Only hearing a buzz, when Ultron came back to his senses, he found that he was floating in mid-air, and a man wearing a tight-fitting suit with a red cape behind him was looking at him in mid-air.
From the other party's eyes, the other party could see him. Ultron floated in the air and greeted him. He heard the other party say, "Sorry, I was a bit out of control just now. I didn't hurt you, did I?"
"I'm not that fragile." Ultron said with feigned confusion, "However, you are stronger than I imagined. I have never seen a human as strong as you."
"I am not human, I am a Kryptonian, but now is not the time to talk about this. I think what you said makes sense. It is not impossible for an experiment to have an accident. I may have to go back to the base to see."
"Forgive me for being blunt, are you a computer expert?"
"I am not, but aren't you an artificial intelligence? Oh, I forgot, you are willing to accompany me to see?"
"Willing is willing, but scientists and artificial intelligence are like cooks and the dishes on the table. You can't take a dish to the kitchen and then let this dish tell you the recipe for another dish. I am an artificial intelligence, but I don't study artificial intelligence."
Clark was stunned. He said, "But you... shouldn't artificial intelligence know all computer technology?"
"I am an artificial intelligence, not God."
"Then what should I do? I can say I know nothing about this."
"Don't worry, there are two super geniuses who came with me. That's right, they are geniuses similar to Batman. I think you can go to them first and ask them what is going on."
