Chapter 2727: Star Core Rescue (24)

Washington time 12:15, an artificial intelligence robot calling itself Friday claimed that it had installed bombs on the space station's power suspension device and would detonate them in half an hour, and the space station's fall would directly destroy the American continent.

The popularity of this news quickly surpassed all previous ones, quickly climbing to the hot headlines of major software, attracting all the attention people had for the monsters in the space station.

Many people's thinking was also easy to understand. Even if there were really monsters on the space station, they looked like the kind in alien movies that would chase and kill humans on the space station. Although this was indeed very cruel, at most it would kill some people.

But artificial intelligence riots were different. According to the experience of most people watching movies, once this thing rioted, it was to occupy the entire Earth. Didn't you hear it say that the space station would destroy the American continent?

Before, people only sympathized with the staff on the space station, but now, the disaster was about to fall on their own heads, and they had no time to sympathize with others, only the panic of thinking about whether they would die.

People care about themselves always more than they care about others. When they still had spare energy, they could do some good deeds, but when they were about to be destroyed, what else could they control about others?

So a new round of rumors and conspiracy theories began, but this time everyone was even more imaginative. Some said the government had actually been secretly controlled by robots, some said the evil experiment created these terrifying robots, and some said the experiment was simply made by robots to destroy humans.

Humans fear humans, but humans fear things other than humans even more. Everyone had lived on the same planet for so many years, and any tricks could be imagined, but alien arrival and robot revolution were different. Humans' deepest fear was the fear of the unknown.

Complete panic replaced suspicion, becoming the mainstream of the internet. At this time, instead, it showed a strange quietness. Many people who wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble suddenly disappeared, and the empty holes left behind were even more frightening.

"What the hell is going on?!" Beck stared at the screen in disbelief. The cold light shone on his face, reflecting his widened eyeballs into a cold and psychedelic blue.

Sophia suddenly rushed over and said, "Mysterio, it's time for you to appear. Beck, now is a rare good opportunity. As long as you can dismantle the bomb..."

"Are you kidding?!" Beck suddenly raised his tone and said, "This isn't arranged by me at all. This isn't in the script!"

Beck's voice revealed the panic he didn't even notice himself. He also couldn't help but associate with some pictures, such as the bomb really exploding, he would smash toward Earth with the space station. By that time, no reputation or pursuit would be useful, and everything would be destroyed.

"I know, Beck, but you have to calm down!" Sophia walked over quickly, pressed Beck's shoulder, and said, "Although I don't know who is making trouble, they must be like us, wanting to gain attention..."

Beck suddenly paused. He turned his head and stared at Sophia, saying, "You mean the other party is also like us, actually just acting?"

"Of course." Sophia looked into his eyes and said, "Come on, you are a real software security engineer. Don't you know if there is any so-called artificial intelligence on the space station?"

Beck took a few deep breaths, calmed down, clenched his fists, and said, "Right, there is no artificial intelligence on the space station. The previous artificial intelligence plans were rejected. It's impossible for any rebellious robot to appear suddenly. Someone must be making trouble. He wants to steal my credit!"

"That's it, Beck. We can direct monster invasion with effects, they can also use image technology or equipment from anywhere to direct robot revolution. We can't be preempted by them!"

Beck swallowed his saliva, but was still a bit hesitant. Sophia's gaze became gentle. She sighed and said, "Think about your career, Beck. You were kicked out of his group by Stark, but he took your research results and showed off, earning a lot of money, while you are like a bereaved dog..."

"Enough!" Beck's eye sockets turned red, and flames emerged in his eyes. He said, "That's right, that damn Stark, if it weren't for him, how could I have lost everything?!"

His breathing became heavy, his face flushed red, and soon he said something to the people in his team, and several people left together.

Schiller, who saw all this through the camera, frowned slightly. Natasha stood behind him, hugging her arms and leaning against the wall. Seeing Schiller's face, she asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"

Schiller thought for a moment and said, "The plan has changed."

Then he looked up and shouted, "Ultron, change your clothes, prepare to get real!"

All cameras turned over at the same time, and the flashing red dots were like blinking in response.

Beck put on Mysterio's equipment. This was what he had prepared early on: a suit of armor, a cloak, and a crystal helmet full of mysterious style, with images changing infinitely on it, as if it were the reflection of this great world.

Before walking out of the door, he stopped his steps, his chest kept rising and falling. Without looking back, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Everything is a trick, right?"

"Just like you, Beck." Sophia said.

"I am a hero!" Beck roared.

He flicked his cloak and walked out of the room.

Yes, it must be like this, he repeated in his heart. It was just someone with no creativity grandstanding. Robot? Come on, what kind of outdated thing is this? Doesn't he know how easy it is to expose something that already has a prototype?

Beck thought hatefully in his heart, as long as he recorded his clumsy tricks, there would be more professional insiders to analyze how clumsy this robot was. By that time, he would fall as big a somersault on the internet as himself!

No, perhaps he could also use drones and illusion devices to have a Mysterio battle robot. By that time, no one would be able to say he was just a clumsy effect artist.

He is a hero! Mysterio is a hero!

Mysterio walked into the power outage area.

He saw a mysterious red light spot appear at the end of the corridor. Mysterio reached out, the lighting devices on his hands and feet lit up, and then he saw it was a camera.

The camera turned to aim at him. Mysterio felt creepy, but he still cheered himself up in his heart. And what he didn't know was that the live broadcast room broadcasting all this had reached the top of the popularity list on all internet social software at this time.

All countries tried to ban this live broadcast room, but it was of no use, or rather, under the mediation of some people, the popularity became higher and higher.

Almost everyone in the world was watching all this.

Mysterio walked toward the deeper part. Suddenly, a strange noise came from the office on his left. He turned his head to look there, but saw nothing.

Bang!

A steel pipe shot out straight, flew past Mysterio's nose, and stuck straight into the corridor wall opposite. Mysterio widened his eyes. In an instant, the corridor wall on his left collapsed with a 'bang'.

Mysterio stretched out his arms to block, coughing twice from the smoke and dust, but in his heart, he felt increasingly disdainful. Ha, isn't this just directional demolition? These are all tricks he played with years ago.

The next second, a pair of scarlet eyes lit up. On Mysterio's left, a huge mechanical monster that completely broke through the two-layer ceiling was tilting its head and staring coldly at him.

Mysterio suffocated instantly.

That was a huge mechanical spider, with eight towering giant legs, while the upper body was a humanoid robot, hunching its body, with two arms composed of two huge sickles.

It's all an illusion... it's all an illusion! Mysterio roared in his heart. Soon you will reveal your true colors!

He jumped backward suddenly, stretched out his arms, and two green rays of light sped out from his arms. The invisible drone carried fire and rushed toward the huge mechanical spider, trying to find the core hidden under the illusion appearance.

Bang! Bang bang!

The drone slammed into the hard mechanical armor, and the sound of the explosion turning into ashes was like a death warrant brought by the Grim Reaper; Mysterio was completely stunned.

This thing isn't an illusion. How is this possible?! How could such a big monster be hidden on the space station? He was the one who became the software security engineer by ability. If there were such a big monster, he couldn't possibly not know...

Suddenly, Mysterio's heart went cold. Because he thought, what if all this were true?

If there really were an evil artificial intelligence robot hidden in the space station's software program just waiting for this day to spread disaster, could he really discover it??

Beck didn't have any certainty, because he didn't really intend to just be an engineer. He spent most of his time preparing his own plan and didn't spend more time checking software security at all. If there really were an artificial intelligence...

Beck didn't dare to think anymore. Facing the huge mechanical monster, he had to concentrate on operating the drone.

Because he was very clear about this situation now, running was impossible, because they were in the sky to begin with. If this monster destroyed the space station, they would fall down all the same, and everyone would die together.

If he didn't find a way to stop this monster now, should he count on those weak scientists who couldn't carry or lift? At least he had some drones in his hands. Even if he didn't care whether others lived or died, he didn't want to die himself. Resistance was his only hope for survival.

Human survival will is incomparably strong. Mysterio had practiced countless times using drones and effect manufacturing devices to fight to deal with variables that might exist in the script in order to disguise himself as a superhero image.

But he wasn't a real superhero after all, at most an acting artist. The moves he practiced were just for looks and actually had no lethality at all.

I saw his left hand lift, countless fire dragons rushed out from behind, his right hand lift, and groups of thick fog surrounded his body, crowding him to fly up.

Beck was also uneasy in his heart. The drone couldn't cause any lethality to this big guy's hard shell at all, and he could only hope it would be confused by these effects, so that he would have a chance to use his only killer move.

I saw several fire dragons heading straight for the spider monster's face. Beck had already clenched the button in his hand, just waiting for the spider monster to pause for a moment, and he would summon the drone with the strongest lethality to perish with this monster.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"

Several fire dragons let out a scream the moment they hit the spider monster.

Those eight legs that looked ferocious tripped themselves, the entire lower half of the spider was burned into ashes, the huge monster collapsed with a 'bang', and the upper body fell to the ground.

Mysterio was stunned, but he didn't forget to strike while the iron was hot. His left hand waved again, a huge water tornado flew over, and the upper half of the spider monster also fell apart in screams.

Mysterio slowly lowered his head and looked at his hands in shock.

Schiller heard Ultron let out a long breath.

"Damn, suicide is hard." ===== CHAPTER 2728 =====
