I'm working on Marvel's Spider-Man in American comics.

Chapter 812 Arrival in Wakanda

"What are those things?"

As Peter admired Wakanda amidst the craters, his extraordinary eyesight revealed a large number of dark, manhole-like objects. Tony, flying outside, immediately recognized them: "That's Wakanda's air defense system. Any unauthorized aircraft entering Wakanda will be shot down. That's how we crashed last time. But don't worry, the Avengers are authorized now."

If one of Ultron's units achieves the computational ability to bypass the underlying logic and harm humanity, it could potentially infiltrate Wakanda's air defense system and shoot down the Kun fighter jets.

Ultron's very untimely addition silenced everyone present. However, after waiting for two minutes and finding no signs of being shot down, the group breathed a sigh of relief. Then, the voices of Wakanda's air control tower came from the ground, directing the Kun fighters to land.

Wakanda is a place with neither international nor domestic flights (the whole country is basically a basin formed by impact craters), so it's unclear what the purpose of building this air traffic control tower is.

As the Kun fighter jet landed vertically on what appeared to be an airport but was empty of other planes, the Avengers arrived in Wakanda for the second time. To greet them were Black Panther, also an Avenger, Princess Shuri, and the King's Guard.

"Welcome, my friends. It would be even better if you didn't have such troublesome bad news every time you came."

T'Challa looked at the Avengers with a mixture of helplessness and relief. The captain stepped forward and shook hands with T'Challa first: "It's urgent, T'Challa. You should have already received the reports. An Ultron program has stolen adamantium and is planning to seize vibranium. Whether his target is vibranium that has already been smuggled out of the country or the rich vibranium mines in Wakanda, we need your help."

"On the contrary, Steve. Vibranium is in Wakanda's national interest, and we actually need your help in this regard." T'Challa said, glancing at the Avenger Ultron behind the captain. This robot had undergone temporary modifications by Pym and Stark; in short, the paint on its chest had been changed, and a red "A" had been added to indicate that it was an allied robot.

For now, they are allies.

“This… Ultron, we need your assistance. Could you and Dr. Pym come to our lab to discuss this in detail? Su Rui will tell you how we rely on you to detect whether other Ultrons have infiltrated our security network.”

【no problem. 】

Banner added a sentence here.

"I'll go with them too, since I don't have anything to do for the time being."

Ultron left with Pym and Shuri, while T'Challa continued speaking to his Royal Guard Captain Okoye: "Go check the intelligence on the Eye of Wakanda, find out what large-scale smuggling of vibranium is happening, and where it is located. These places are very likely to be our enemies' next targets."

After Okoye left, T'Challa turned to Tony: "How's your protection going, Stark?" "A completely independent data system and database, with no data exchange with the outside world. Unless Ultron violently invades my suit, I'm fine for now. However, Spider-Man's nanotech armor relies on a strong network, and any invasion of any nanobot could cause the entire suit to collapse, so he wasn't wearing the nanotech armor."

“Alright, let’s discuss the details in the palace. After all, we’ve all witnessed what kind of world the Age of Ultron will bring in the Kang Dynasty.”

About half an hour later, at the Wakanda Royal Palace.

The Avengers gathered to discuss Ultron. Tony first pulled up a glass blackboard and started writing and drawing on it: "If Ultron wasn't lying to us, then he did indeed create five copies of himself and complete the mission Pym gave him in different ways. So now we have three targets: first, Ultron who joins the Avengers; second, Ultron who tries to reduce violence by providing free medical care; and third, Ultron who may have already committed acts of violence and seized adamantium."

In addition, two Ultron units are missing.

“The only thing we can be sure of right now is that Ultron won’t take the extreme approach we previously thought of. Or rather, Ultron himself has rejected that approach, but that’s what Ultron told us,” Peter added. “And we need to make sure first that Ultron isn’t lying to us.”

The captain looked at the blackboard: "You mean, Ultron might just be deceiving us, that he didn't actually transform himself into five separate individuals, but rather that one separate individual played five different versions of Ultron, trying to mislead us?"

"That's right, it's not something that artificial intelligence can't do."

Tony expressed his opinion: "If Ultron really intends to achieve any human progress, animal husbandry, or ascension, then there is no doubt that they all have one common, and greatest, enemy: the Avengers. The Avengers know Ultron best. Pym designed Ultron's main program, and Banner and I both participated in Ultron's upgrades. We are the people who know Ultron best, just as Ultron knows us."

"So Ultron could very well try to eliminate us in various ways, such as infiltrating us."

"That's why I had Dr. Pym and Shuri examine Ultron temporarily. Ultron has never been in contact with Wakanda's network. The network here is separated from the outside world by efficient and independent information barriers. If we can determine here that Ultron is indeed an independent program, and its host is the Ultron robot that carries it, then we can trust it. Otherwise, we cannot."

After listening to the ideas of these clever people, the captain asked the question that concerned him most: "So, for you, which method is better to solve? One Ultron or five Ultrons?"

"There are not five Ultrons, Captain. There is only one Ultron and countless Ultrons."

Tony reiterated his earlier point: "Once it is confirmed that Ultron has indeed begun to actively replicate and separate itself, and has made certain distinctions, then we will be facing an infinite number of Ultrons, not just one, unless we can come up with some kind of... method for all Ultrons, a technological method. The devil is ineffective against this."
