Chapter 2170
Coulson finally got his wish. Ultron's intervention finally gave him a glimmer of hope.
Of course, although it is true to say so, it is inevitable, and he became a little worried about gains and losses. Ultron's ability to solve this problem is only a possibility that Jarvis told him, and whether this possibility can be realized is an answer that no one can be sure of.
This may be the most promising option, but it does not mean that it will be the one that is guaranteed to succeed. Sometimes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. And after experiencing such things, Coulson really didn't want to get such a disappointing answer.
So, he was really anxious. I was eager to know what the result would be from Ultron, but I was a little afraid and afraid, and got a bad answer from him. This made him toss and turn, and in the end it was his desire for the truth that made him suppress all his anxiety, and drove him directly to Ultron who seemed to be sitting still, and asked him.
"Are you sure you can deal with this virus?"
"Of course!" Looking up at Coulson, Ultron directly gave him an answer that made him feel at ease. "Although Alexia is extremely talented in this area, in the final analysis, she is just a person. The change of life level does not mean that her thinking has also undergone a transformation, and as long as her talent is still at the same level If it is within the scope of human beings, then it is not unbreakable."
Such an answer really made Coulson heave a sigh of relief, and he felt relieved that a big rock in his heart had finally been let go. But many years of caution did not make him completely relieved. After a little hesitation, he asked again.
"So, how long will it take you to develop a relevant vaccine?"
"Soon, if you need it, in about two or three hours, I will be able to let my laboratory make the first vaccine. This is not a problem, at least, compared to other problems , and that's not the hardest part."
Ultron's answer made Coulson feel puzzled. What he didn't understand was that when the most difficult problem, the vaccine, was solved, how could they have other, more difficult problems to solve. This is not in line with common sense.
Ultron's answer clearly told him that he was obviously lacking in consideration on this issue.
"Vaccine research is only the first step to prevent everything you worry about from happening. The next thing you should worry about is how to make people aware of the existence of the virus, and how to spread the virus and even cause irreparable consequences. Before that, this vaccine will be popularized.”
"as far as I can tell,
Although this virus has evolved a latent mechanism, judging from its own destructiveness, this latent nature should only be a short-term process to intensify the spread and respond to the body's immune system response. It will eventually erupt, and the result of this eruption should be sudden death. And according to the data you have obtained, the current situation is that at any time, millions or even tens of millions of people will die suddenly because of this. "
"You have to popularize this vaccine before the virus's first incubation period breaks out. At the same time, you have to make people understand the horror of this virus as much as possible, consciously avoid contact, safe isolation and vaccination And all of this must be implemented and implemented from top to bottom by a strong centralized organization. To be honest, Mr. Coulson, I doubt whether the current US government can do it. to this point."
This is not something to doubt, and Coulson can almost certainly say that the current US government is unable to do this step.
The individual battles between various politicians will inevitably lead to some support and some opposition. And as they wrestle with each other and hold back, the best chance to control the virus outbreak is likely to be missed in front of their eyes. And at that time, even if they wake up, what can they do. Countless lives may have already been abused by the disease, and the white bones may have covered every inch of the United States.
He was aware of all this, but he couldn't change it at all. Maybe he used to have this ability, but unfortunately, their appeasement policy made them completely thrown out of the center of power, and at the same time completely lost the ability to change everything.
Everything is like retribution, and the cruel reality makes Coulson unbelievable. He was absent-minded for a long time, and his mouth was full of bitter taste. He thought he had already tasted the bitter fruit, but he didn't expect that the real pain was still waiting for him here.
What did we do in the first place? He asked himself, and of course it was impossible to come up with an answer. After all, the future is unpredictable. At that time, they naturally could not have imagined that their retreat would lead to such a scene today.
He can only be regarded as mediocre to think so. From Ultron's point of view, this doesn't have much effect other than making them give up on themselves. This didn't make much sense, so he said that immediately.
"Mr. Coulson, if such news makes you depressed. Then I don't think you need to listen to another news, because that news will only make you more difficult for you. I am very sorry I'm worried, you can't help swallowing a gun and committing suicide after hearing the news..."
This is not a joke, but a certain degree of experience and lessons. Thanks to the proliferation of guns in the United States, there are not a few people who use guns to commit suicide every year. Except for a small part due to some accidents or stupid factors, most of them collapsed under the burden of bearing the unbearable weight of life, thus choosing such a path of self-destruction.
This is a normal state of human beings. A person, no matter how strong he is, still has limits in his heart. But in the face of complicated facts and unpredictable fate, few people can say that they can face it calmly with a smile. Especially people like Coulson who are up and down at the top of the tide of the times, they have to bear more than ordinary people.
It is normal for this kind of people to choose a narrow sense of relief because they cannot bear the pressure. It is undeniable that Coulson did have such an idea for a moment.
He really thought about dying to thank the world. However, reason told him very clearly that this is not a problem that can be solved with a mere death. His death can only be an insignificant addition to the countless casualties, which will not help the coming disaster at all.
To solve a problem, you have to face it head-on. So, even though he felt that he was hopeless to stop all this, he still forcibly cheered up and said this to Ultron.
"You're right, Ultron, now shouldn't be the time to be depressed, sorry, I've lost my composure."
He slapped his face hard, trying to make himself look more energetic. Coulson used this method to re-enter the familiar combat state.
"Now...you say there's one more problem to be solved, and it's a bigger one. So, what exactly are you referring to?"
"The source, Mr. Coulson, I mean the source."
Speaking of this issue, Ultron did not mean to shy away from it. He pointed it out very clearly.
"Frank, he's the source of what I'm talking about."
"Strictly speaking, this virus is divided into two parts. One is the part you know, which is the virus that is circulating now. Strictly speaking, it is just a derivative, a part based on the mysterious side The curse power of the virus and the product of the original strain of the virus mixed with various bacteria, microorganisms, and even other viruses in the natural environment. This is why you think it is difficult to deal with, because it is adapting and changing extremely quickly. "
"I can use nanomachines to remove them in a targeted manner. On the premise that it is sufficient to deal with all bacteria and even viruses on the earth, no matter how complicated this change is, it is impossible for me to deal with it. However, I cannot Clean it from the source. Because its main body, which is what I call the source, is already in another form."
"This form is more based on the curse power of the mysterious side, which is attached to Frank's body. It takes the form of plundering his life force to produce its own transformation. Unless Frank's life disappears or is terminated. Otherwise , This virus will always be produced continuously, and spread to any place in the world with Frank's activities."
"Vaccines cannot protect human beings forever. And this means that as long as it exists, it may pose a threat to human beings. Then the problem will follow. How should you and I solve this kind of him? What? To be honest, I hesitated..."
Ultron was able to say this, but Coulson could only keep it in his heart at the moment.
He understood what Ultron meant, that is, if it was for the future of mankind, then Frank, as a potential threat, couldn't put him there and ignore him. Whether it is to completely eliminate him, or just imprison him. All actions must be taken.
However, this is not something he is willing to do. Because even a person like him would inevitably feel guilty when facing a target like Frank.
They already owe Stark a lot, so is it true that they really want to ruin the last blood of the Stark family here? If so, then it would be too cruel.
Of course he couldn't bear it, but when he thought about the result of this kind of unbearable. As soon as he thought that countless families, countless men, women, old people, and children were threatened with terrible and fatal threats because of his existence, his natural sense of responsibility made him dare not have any unbearable thoughts at all.
Because, the intolerance to Frank at this time is the greatest cruelty to countless innocent people. One to one billion or even billions, any person facing such a situation can make a choice.
In the same way, so did he. In other words, he has already made a choice in his heart, but emotionally, he still can't admit it.
The inherent hypocrisy in human nature made it impossible for him to say such a despicable thing so frankly. And even though his silence had shown his attitude to some extent, he still chose this way of deceiving himself.
This is not what Ultron wants to see. He is not qualified to act as a substitute for decision-making between humans, especially when Frank, who has a close relationship with him, is involved. All he can do is to deploy from the sidelines and provide them with all the necessary help, but how to choose depends on these human beings themselves.
They should not be kind to women, because there is no room for them to do this kind of unnecessary kindness. So it was a little urgent, and he had already said this to Coulson.
"You need to make a decision as soon as possible. You should understand that there is not much time left for you."
"Yes, time is running out..."
Mumbling bitterly, Coulson still had to pull out his head stuck in the sand. He knew that he needed to face the reality, so after struggling for a while, he gave such an answer.
"I will find a way to inform Congress of this matter. I think if there is such an opportunity to target Frank, they should not miss it. Now there is only one problem left, and that is where should I go Find him. Jarvis won't let us find him so easily..."
"You don't need to worry about this kind of thing anymore. If you have this need, then I will help you find his location. It's just that you need to understand that since you have made such a determination, then you have nothing to do." There is no room for mercy or mercy."
"Frank will not tolerate betrayal, whether it is yours or mine, it will only be the same to him... a betrayer. His character has always been extreme, so when he recognizes this fact, he will definitely not hesitate. All the revenge comes back. This kind of revenge cannot be described as a small fight. To put it bluntly, he will try his best to destroy everything you own and cherish."
"If you don't want to suffer such revenge, then there is only one choice."
"Kill him?"
Staring at his hands, Coulson already gave his answer in an empty tone. He fully understood the meaning of Ultron, and now, he really didn't set up any hesitation.
"If it's necessary to do this...then it's the only way to do it. If Tony is still alive, maybe he will hate me. But, I don't have a choice, do I?"
