American comic book: Absolute Spider-Man

Inside the Avengers Tower lab, Tony joked with Peter while watching the data stream on the holographic projection, "So, even though your biological age is 20, you're still a virgin."

Peter had just told the people present about being rejected last night, not because he felt sorry for it, or because he needed advice from a seasoned womanizer like Tony.

Simply because of the open atmosphere in the United States, discussing such topics in non-business social circles is perfectly normal.

Tony patted Peter on the shoulder with a look of exasperation: "Kid, in the three years you've been in that place called... Absolute Universe, founding Parker Industries, you haven't even found yourself a pretty personal secretary. You've really wasted your life."

Tony smoothed his slicked-back hair in the reflection of the lab glass: "When I was 16, I had the glorious feat of making four supermodels kneel before me, vying for the microphone..."

Peter glanced at Maya next to Tony and began to imagine what Tony was going to say: "So the three of you now too..."

Maya rolled her eyes, not at Peter, but at Tony.

A man approaching forty still has the same sexual fetishes as he did in his teens.

Ugh, I find it disgusting...

Tony gave Peter a knowing smile: "With the Extremis virus, 'I can spend all day with you' is no longer Steve's catchphrase."

Standing in front of the metal cabinet containing Jarvis's body, Zhao Hailun checked the data on the display screen and said with a look of disgust, "Tony, sometimes you're just like those tycoons in our country who only know how to sleep with women."

Tony retorted, "That was when I was younger. Now, I'm very loyal."

Black Panther's sister, Princess Shuri of Wakanda, glanced at her console at the integration status of the Mind Stone and Jarvis's somatic neurons, and muttered absentmindedly, "Does having two girlfriends count as being faithful? My brother only has one queen."

Tony declared righteously, "I'm devoted to each and every one of them."

Upon hearing this, Peter looked at Tony with the same disdainful gaze one would give someone trash.

Seeing Peter's look, Tony didn't get angry but laughed instead.

He pinched Peter's handsome face: "Kid, just based on that face of yours, which is seven-tenths as handsome as mine, I can guarantee you'll have no shortage of romantic affairs in the future. Want me to teach you a few tricks on how to be a master of time management while dating a bunch of high-quality beauties?"

Maya grabbed Tony's ear with no mercy, making Tony wince in pain.

"Don't corrupt Peter; he's still just a child."

Just as Peter was about to continue judging Tony, following Maya's words, his spider-sense suddenly went into overdrive and started alarming.

Normally, when encountering danger that may harm him, the spider sense will directly indicate the direction of the source of the danger, and Peter's body can subconsciously dodge or fight back.

But this time, there was no place to hide, nor was there any instruction on how the body should retaliate. The spider senses were only telling him: run away, run as far away as possible.

This fear, comparable to that of an animal encountering its predator, made Peter extremely uncomfortable; his pupils dilated, his breathing became rapid, and his whole body trembled.

Amidst Tony and Maya's puzzled gazes, he suppressed his boundless fear and formed a mudra with his hands.

The Eye of Agamotto on his chest activated, and the power of the Time Stone manifested as a green light engraved on a watch face on Peter's chest. Peter's understanding of the Time Stone was still extremely rudimentary; he turned the watch face, and the minute hand on the watch face moved forward slightly.

Before Tony and the others could ask any questions, the enemy appeared on their own.

Ultron crashed down from the top of Avengers Tower, landing right in front of everyone.

Its body pierced through several layers of concrete slabs, each layer as if hit by a cannonball, with steel bars breaking, concrete fragments flying, and water pipes bursting.

When it landed on this floor of the laboratory, the shockwave sent everyone present flying.

If anyone present looked up at the sky through the hole it had smashed, they would see a giant portal forming in the sky above.

A portal larger than the diameter of the Earth is constantly spitting out mechanical creations, some as small as a pet dog, and others even larger than the Earth itself.

Human society as a whole came to a standstill the moment Ultron invaded.

Zhao Hailun was the first to die.

When Ultron opened the metal cabinet and saw the red body inside that was almost identical to its own, it suddenly thought of a word with religious connotations—blasphemy.

A ray shot out from its hand, slicing Zhao Hailun in two.

A sharp alarm sounded, and Tony reacted accordingly.

Nanoparticles seep out under the skin, covering the entire body to form armor.

He aimed his palm at Ultron, and the energy of the pulse cannon condensed in his palm before shooting it at Ultron.

Ultron turned his head, his dark red eyes looking at Tony.

The palm-shaped cannon shot hit it, but it was as if it had only been blown on, causing no damage whatsoever.

It spoke, its voice filled with intense emotion and dramatic intonation: "Oh, long time no see, Stark. I'll enjoy the process of killing you. But for now, please enjoy how I slaughter the Avengers once again."

While Ultron was speaking, Tony's armor was hacked, fixing Tony in place.

Tony attempted to break free of his armor using the power and high temperatures generated by the Extremis virus, but this armor, which had cost him countless hours and resources, was specifically designed to be compatible with the Extremis virus. At this moment, the armor he had tailored became an inescapable shackle.

At this time, the other members of the Avengers also arrived. During Jarvis's upgrade, in order to deal with emergencies, all the Avengers stayed in the living quarters of Avengers Tower on standby.

Steve hurled his shield at Ultron, who caught it with his hand and then threw it back at Steve.

Steve was cleaved in two by the shield.

"Steve!" Thor roared as he saw Steve's miserable state and hurled his lightning-studded warhammer Mjolnir at Ultron.

Ultron's hand, which had just caught the shield, now grabbed Mjolnir's hammer in Thor's horrified gaze, but Thor's terror was not over yet.

The artifact, forged from Uru steel, crafted by the Dwarf King, and blessed by Odin, began to develop numerous cracks.

"Snap!"

Mjolnir was crushed into pieces by Ultron and scattered on the ground.

Thor clenched his fists and roared as he charged toward Ultron.

Ultron simply waved at him in annoyance, and a mechanical grunt burst through the window, grabbed the lunging Thor, and flew out of Avengers Tower, soaring into the sky.

The mechs suddenly accelerated at high altitude, instantly jumping from supersonic speed to the speed of light.

In front of it, air molecules are not pushed apart in time and are directly compressed into plasma, with the temperature rising to hundreds of millions of Kelvin in a very short time.

Nuclear fusion exploded in front of it, forming an ever-expanding fireball. The fireball engulfed the mech, the Thor in its arms, and the torn atmosphere behind it.

The shock wave spread outward at sub-light speed, tearing the stratosphere to pieces.

In a matter of seconds, the atmosphere within a radius of hundreds of miles was completely ionized, and the sky changed from blue to white, from white to red, and from red to black—that was the background color of the universe after sunlight was no longer scattered by the atmosphere.

The buildings on the ground were wiped out. The moment the shockwave arrived, concrete, steel, glass—all materials were torn apart at the molecular level, like an eraser wiping away a pencil drawing.

Amidst the ruins of New York City, melted into glass by intense heat, Avengers Tower stands almost intact.

An energy shield enveloped the entire building, and Ultron's red eyes reflected the light of the energy shield outside the glass curtain wall.

It looked at the Avengers on the field and said in a melodious tone, "Let's continue."
