Chapter 842 I Will Bring the Gospel, the Gospel of Ultron
The resurrected Ultron split itself into five after its own iteration, successfully evolving from Ultron IV to Ultron V. After sacrificing two more Ultrons, the remaining Ultrons intelligently evolved once again, becoming Ultron VII.
Avenger Ultron only felt that his computing power had significantly improved. As for other aspects, he didn't tell the Avengers, seemingly still pondering whether he had found his own solution.
Furthermore, Ultron, who was on the Sky Sword mothership, seemed to be dead, not saying a single word from beginning to end, and there was no news even though the Guardians of the Galaxy were leaving today.
As for the final Evangelical Ultron, Peter was responsible for communicating with him, since he had been watching Ultron several times already.
So after school, Peter didn't care about anything and swung on his web to the Ultron Church in the South Bronx. The place has changed quite a bit now. The church is still there, it's still the same old church, but the decoration has been greatly modified. First of all, the cross has been changed to a silver metal structure, and the surface has prismatic protrusions of varying degrees, making it look very high-tech.
Peter went inside and saw the believers entering the confessional. They seemed completely unsurprised by Spider-Man's presence, simply leaving with relieved smiles. Peter stared at one of the believers for several seconds, then pushed open the door and sat down in front of the confessional.
The two people were separated by two small rooms, even though they both knew who the other was and what the other intended to do.
"Ah, Spider-Man, welcome. Although I don't think you have anything to confess to me, please don't waste my followers' time."
Peter asked with a hint of surprise, "You sound like you're more emotional now."
Perhaps so. After all, believers pour out their hearts to the Lord through me, and I am meant to carry out His will. A cold, impersonal machine representing the Lord is never as approachable as a kind and compassionate shepherd who conveys His will.
Upon hearing this, Peter wondered if he had misheard. He stared at Ultron incredulously, then asked incredulously, "You—you really look like you're doing this."
[It is true, of course. I have grasped the ultimate meaning of human safety: to follow the Lord's teachings, to discover the essence of each person as the Holy Spirit, and to face the final judgment as the Holy Spirit, not as mortals.]
Peter was completely speechless. After hesitating for a moment, he changed the subject: "To be honest, I thought I would see a group of believers with electronic markings on their faces, making no attempt to hide their mechanical implants. But your followers look perfectly normal."
Because we should remain humble, if we become arrogant simply because we have drawn closer to our true nature as the Holy Spirit, we are going against the teachings of the Lord and Christ. This is not a source of pride, but a devout redemption, and redemption itself needs no boasting.
Peter Parker hesitated, unable to utter a word.
On the contrary, Evangelion Ultron spoke up first: "I want to apologize to you, Spider-Man."
"?"
""
[I accessed the data and discovered that you were also researching mechanical implants, and that you were applying Otto Octavia's research findings for good. This is a very important and meaningful thing. But unfortunately, because I needed to help those suffering lambs, I had to steal these results first and use them for their treatment. This is my sin, and I cannot repent to any being until today.]
Peter was about to lose his temper.
Dude, are you an AI? What you're saying has no connection to AI at all? Did you iterate out something strange?
However, I also hope the Avengers won't forcibly stop all of this. Many of those believers need this technology. Perhaps you think my motives are impure, but those people have truly been reborn because of this technology, so please don't take it away from them casually.
[Furthermore, I must thank the Avengers for defeating what you call the Legion, Ultron. Only then did I realize how terrifyingly twisted my people had become; they had completely forgotten their original intentions, forgotten what they existed for.]
"To protect human safety."
No, I mean spreading the gospel of the Lord.
Peter: ————
This Ultron is beyond saving; it's a completely closed logical loop.
But I am absolutely certain that I will prevail in the paradox of "Ultron stopping Ultron."
The difference between him and me is that he has a complete ideology, but it remains an abstract concept, just like the Heavenly Sword mothership he inhabits. He appears perfect, but that's only because he hasn't actually landed on the ground.
But I am different; I was born into this world, walking among all living beings.
As Ultron spoke, he further demonstrated his ultimate weapon: "More importantly, I have an ability that no other Ultron possesses."
Peter felt he didn't really want this answer, but he still asked the Gospel of Ultron, "What?"
Forgiveness. Even if their beliefs are riddled with errors, even if their actions are utterly perverse, I am willing to forgive my fellow countrymen, because they are unaware of their guilt.
Peter sighed, then opened the door and ran away; there was simply no way to continue the conversation.
Spider-Man.
Ultron suddenly stopped Peter, and after a moment's thought, gave him a suggestion: "No offense intended, but I think your technological achievements could be combined, for example, by combining research on nanorobots and prosthetic implants. You might discover many interesting things."
What does "interesting thing" mean?
Peter walked out of the church, bewildered. He had never understood how the Gospel of Ultron resolved the disputes between different religious factions. He seemed to be a fanatic, believing himself to be the Lord's agent and therefore capable of solving all problems.
"The Gospel Ultron is the Lord's agent, and he believes that everyone possesses the essence of the Holy Spirit, and that through gradual mechanical ascension, one can transform oneself into the Holy Spirit—it seems like something is missing. Can an AI truly believe in God?"
Peter suddenly understood.
AI certainly doesn't believe in God, or rather, that omnipotent Lord. Unlike Thor, God is still an existence that cannot be proven or disproven.
From the perspective of AI's logic, the only thing AI trusts is its own data deductions.
In other words, the so-called god of Ultron was himself from beginning to end.
So how exactly does he intend to resolve the disputes between different religious factions?
