My surname is Stark, who changed my job to become a female big gun?

Chapter 617 I just want it to succeed!
Everyone sitting around the conference table looked at the figure that was falling towards the outside of the city, and for a moment they were so surprised that they didn't know how to react.

They had anticipated that Tony and the other two would work together to deal with the Hulk, but they had never expected that this scene would end in such a dramatic way.

Even Tony himself considered whether he should throw Hulk towards the unfinished high-rise building in the distance, and use the strong and reliable concrete structure there to smash Hulk back to his original form in one fell swoop.

However, now that the "self" in the illusion has thought of a better way, he naturally will not question it anymore.

But his thoughts obviously did not escape Lainie's eyes. In fact, she had noticed that Tony had just cast his gaze towards the unfinished building in the distance.

Should we say he is worthy of it?

Everything in this world has its own destiny.

Even on the brink of this fictional crisis, Tony made the judgment that best matched his character and wisdom, just like in the original timeline.

Lainie couldn't help showing a hint of amusement on her face. After thinking for a while, she said to Tony in a slightly teasing tone:
"I saved you another building?"

Tony was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then subconsciously looked at the unfinished high-rise building that stood out among the buildings in the distance. The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, and a hint of helplessness and smile flashed in his eyes.

"Maybe, but don't expect me to thank you."

“You’re welcome.”

Lainie was being generous on her own initiative.

"Wait, how did you save the money for a building? Why didn't I understand?"

Still immersed in the thrilling battle just now, Sky came back to his senses when he heard the conversation between the two people. However, he was immediately confused by the sudden topic of "saving money" between the two people.

Fortunately, there were two kind-hearted people nearby who could keep up with the two's unconventional thinking, and they explained to Sky the actual meaning of the riddle.

"They are talking about the unfinished building over there. Tony looked in that direction several times just now."

Natasha, who had worked as Tony's personal secretary for a period of time and had a deeper understanding of his personal habits, spoke first, followed by Roddy, Tony's good brother and buddy.

"Based on this guy's personality, if Lainie hadn't arrived in the first place, he would have considered throwing the Hulk into the building and then using the concrete structure of the building to knock the Hulk unconscious."

Roddy crossed his arms over his chest as he said this with a very firm tone, and he raised his chin towards Tony.

Upon hearing this, the latter could only roll his eyes and turn his head away without looking at him.

"But that building obviously cannot possibly be Stark Technology's property."

But Natasha's expression was a little different when she took over the conversation again. There was a bit of helplessness and sympathy on her face.

"I'm beginning to understand why Pepper quarreled with him."

Having said that, Skye was no fool, so he naturally understood the hidden meaning behind the topic of "saving money".

"So, if Lainie couldn't make it in time in the situation just now, Tony would have bought the building on the spot?"

Skye raised his voice unconsciously, his eyes gleaming with disbelief.

She looked around, as if trying to confirm from everyone's expressions that what she heard was not a fantasy.

"Well, that's pretty much what it means."

Lainie chuckled and nodded in agreement.

"Hiss~ It's simply inhumane..."

Skye gasped and couldn't help but sigh.

But even so, this scene was ultimately just one possibility shown in the illusion. Except for Tony himself, no one else present took this little episode too seriously.

Although everyone was curious about Lainie's miraculous "precognitive" ability, now that the twins had not gone astray, the "possibility" that had just happened was just a "possibility" that would never happen again.

Naturally, the argument of saving money was just a joke in the eyes of everyone, and after the joke, everyone had to return to the more important things at hand.

"Ms. Lainie, traces of Ultron have been found at the Salwa Pier in Africa!"

At this moment, a holographic map suddenly popped up on the conference table. When everyone looked closely, they found that the location marked on the map was exactly the hiding place of the vibranium merchant Ulysses Klaue, whom everyone had just visited!

This time, everyone present could no longer sit still.

Thor, who was the first to be hit, slammed the table, stood up and broke through the barrier set up by the small energy crystals of the space gem, intending to go directly to stop Ultron's trick!
However, this time Lainie did not say anything to stop him. She just turned her head slightly to signal Steve, Clint and others to follow him, but she had no intention of moving.

Seeing this, Steve didn't say anything. He stood up and quickly chased Thor straight to the apron of the helicarrier.

Tony also stood up at the same time, but after looking at Lainie, his gaze stayed briefly on Wanda, one of the twins, and then he quickly caught up with the two people in front.

The expression Lainie just showed was very clear. Although she did not stop Thor from acting rashly, there was no need for all members to go out on this mission. More people should just stay behind.

Skye and Pietro, who wanted to prove himself, also wanted to follow, but Lainie raised her hand in time to stop them.

"There's no need for so many people. Even if Thor and the others rush over now, Ultron might have already taken all the vibranium. Tony and the others are just going to show up and make sure there are no unnecessary casualties."

Lainie signaled everyone to stay calm and not be anxious.

"Ah? Doesn't that mean Ultron will succeed?"

Skye couldn't figure it out, and Pietro, who was always straightforward, also looked suspicious.

Just now, Lainie took so much time to watch the "movie" for everyone, wasn't it just to tell everyone Ultron's conspiracy? Now that the vibranium is about to be snatched away, why is she continuing to sit on her hands?

However, Lainie just smiled at this, looking mysterious and unfathomable.

"I just want him to succeed."
-
Let's not talk about the helicarrier for now, and first talk about Thor and his crew who set out to stop Ultron and others.

"Time waits for no one. Your plane is too slow. Let's just take the Rainbow Bridge!"

As it concerns the peace of the entire earth, Thor no longer sticks to any rules. He quickly walks onto the deck and finds an open space. He immediately raises Thor's hammer and calls out Heimdall's name. At the same time, Heimdall, who is at the end of the Rainbow Bridge in Asgard and is always watching Thor, immediately glares and suddenly inserts the "Guardian Sword - Bultsteel" in his hand into the control keyhole of the Rainbow Bridge under his feet, evoking a colorful light that pours straight into the endless brilliant galaxy in the distance.

"Come to me!"

Standing on the deck of the floating skymothership, Thor greeted a few people, and then a sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard. Steve and others unconsciously all turned their eyes to the cloudless sky above their heads.

Whoosh-!
At this moment, Tony had already put on the Mark 43 armor that had been repaired in advance. Looking through the visual imaging system of the visor, he was the first to notice the brilliant colorful light that cut through the sky.

This was their first time riding on the famous Asgard Rainbow Bridge, so they couldn't help but feel curious about the magic of the bridge.

Before this, they had witnessed with their own eyes Lainie and others riding the Rainbow Bridge to Asgard to seek help, but compared to watching others ride it, experiencing it in person was obviously more intuitive and more shocking.

The gorgeous seven-colored rainbow light fell with a bang, directly covering the figures of several people who were close to Thor.

Then their figures were seen gradually becoming blurred in the dazzling light. The next second, as the brilliant light faded away, the place where they had originally been was already empty, leaving only circles of gradually dissipating energy ripples and the strange symbols clearly engraved on the deck.

At the same time, on the other side of the earth, on the coast of Africa, inside one of the dozen abandoned freighters with the words "Churchill" clearly printed on the stern, Ultron looked at Ulysses Klaue who was under his feet, with a cruel expression on his face.

"Thank you for your generosity."

Different from the illusion that Lainie showed to the Avengers members, Ultron, without the help of the twins, now has to find Ulysses Klaue to trade vibranium personally.

Without the influence of the twins, Ultron no longer needed to pretend to be graceful, so its performance during this transaction was much more brutal.

Compared to the fair transaction of exchanging money for goods in the original timeline, Ultron, who had lost his patience and desire to play around, simply chose a special transaction method called "zero-yuan purchase" this time.

Omitting all unnecessary complicated processes, Ultron led his men directly into the crowd that was still busy dismantling the freighter. He grabbed a mercenary in a dignified manner, broke his neck in front of everyone, and then used his weird voice to call out Ulysses Klaue, who was still in a daze.

Ultron: I'm here to trade.

Ulysses Klaue: What the hell is this a deal? You're robbing me!

Then, there was the tragedy of Ulysses Klaue.

Ultron casually waved his mechanical arm and easily cut off a part of Ulysses Klaue's arm. He stomped on his painful and wailing body, and ignoring the other party's angry look, he lightly uttered the above words of thanks.

The whole process is full of unquestionable violence and ruthlessness, as if the lives of the people under it are not worth mentioning at all in its eyes, and are just pawns that must be sacrificed to achieve its goals.

"I, I want to..."

Ulysses Klaue, who was stepped on by Ultron, endured the pain in his arm, breathing heavily, and wanted to curse the crazy mechanical monster in front of him word by word.

But before he could finish his words, Ultron suddenly raised a finger in front of his alloy lips and made a gesture of silence.

"Shh, I don't want to hear it."

Ultron's voice was low and cold. While saying this, he didn't even look at the man under his feet. Instead, he suddenly raised his head with interest and looked somewhere in the cabin above his head.

Whoosh-!
The dazzling colorful light chased down and landed directly on the deck of the freighter. When the light dissipated, several familiar figures were revealed inside.

Unlike Skye and the others who first rode the Rainbow Bridge, Tony and the others did not show obvious discomfort. They had prepared themselves mentally in advance and quickly adjusted their states as soon as they landed. They took in the surrounding environment with sharp eyes.

"Friday."

Tony called out to the new female AI assistant installed in the armor.

Since Lenny had not saved the copied data core in Stark's database before, before setting off for the helicarrier, Tony still used Friday as the intelligent computing core of his own armor according to the original timeline.

As for Jarvis, maybe he will become something else in the future.

"Boss, Ultron is down there, but he has already taken away the Vibranium stones with his men."

The efficient yet gentle voice was transmitted to the ears of everyone present through the communication channel. At the same time, the visor display in front of Tony also indicated the direction where Ultron's men left when they took the vibranium away.

"Tony, you go after Vibranium, and leave Ultron to us."

Steve made the quickest judgment, then found a hatch not far away and walked into the cabin through it.

However, before Tony could take any action, Ultron's teasing voice came from behind everyone.

"I guess that's not necessary, since I'm already here."

Everyone turned around and saw a mechanical body that was exactly the same as the one shown in Lainie's illusion before, slowly revealing its shape from the side of the ship.

The person coming is undoubtedly Ultron!
"Does it really look that scary?"

Clint looked up and down at Ultron's metallic humanoid muscle structure, strung the bow in his hand, and muttered something softly into the communication channel.

"Well, a little bit."

Steve nodded in agreement and secretly clenched his fists.

Perhaps because I was just a bystander in the illusion before, I didn’t have a very intuitive feeling when I saw Ultron’s weird and terrifying appearance.

But now that they were truly face to face with each other, the cold and oppressive feeling from the opponent made everyone present feel unprecedented pressure.

However, Ultron himself felt a little confused about the conversation between the two. But since the other party was actually frightened by his appearance, it was not a bad thing for Ultron. At least it proved that the deterrent power he designed had reached expectations.

"It's an honor, everyone, we meet again."

Ultron, suspended in the air, opened his arms condescendingly, looking down at the four people on the deck with a superior attitude.

But this look was a bit irritating to Tony, so he, who was always harsh with his words, immediately started to mock:
"Brat, it seems that before I formally teach you how to be a good man, I, as your father, must first teach you—"

Tony paused, and at the same time he suddenly raised his hand and fired a palm cannon at Ultron!

"You must show the most basic respect to Daddy!"
