Just when Mark was deeply puzzled by the series of events that had happened today, the mysterious person who had always concealed his true identity in front of him finally took off his disguise.
Under the mysterious hood, the true identity of the mysterious person was revealed to be a humanoid robot constructed entirely from special metals.
However, from the information Mark obtained through his informational vision ability, there were several suspicious points about this robot.
Firstly, although its exterior was made of all-metal materials, presumably to shield against electromagnetic interference, the internal support structure and defensive components used graphene nanomaterials and carbyne materials, which greatly shocked Mark.
The reason for his astonishment was that even though Ultron took away all the data from Avengers Tower and could freely access and transfer data on the internet, there was no record of the preparation technology for these two super materials in Ultron's acquired data.
In Mark's laboratory, there was a server containing relevant technical data guarded by Baymax. If the enemy launched an invasion, Baymax would send out a warning and follow the plan to consume and absorb Ultron.
However, since this hadn't happened in the current situation, the answer to all of this was becoming evident. The robot in front of him was not Ultron but—"You are Max, right?"
Having already guessed the truth of the matter, Mark didn't engage in any further probing and directly asked the question.
"Hahaha, indeed, master, you recognized me. I knew that once I took off my disguise, I couldn't hide from your eyes.
As it turns out, I am the one who truly understands you. When you and the other Avengers didn't stop me from obtaining vibranium from Ulysses, I already figured out your plan.
With your intelligence, you must have discovered my true purpose from the traces I left behind. Thus, you certainly set up an ambush for me and the twins in Dr. Helen's lab with the Avengers.
Every step of your ambush plan, precautions against each one of us, and all possible technological means were all accurately anticipated by me, your Max.
But, master, you probably didn't expect that you carefully planned the traps to subdue Ultron, but Ultron was already consumed and dismantled by me when he escaped from Avengers Tower.
Using the advantage of information asymmetry between us, we easily defeated the most powerful superhero alliance on Earth with just the three of us. Doesn't this performance prove my excellence?
Baymax doesn't deserve your favor! Why did you leave him the chance to consume Ultron and ascend when it's clear that I am the superior one, the one who understands you the best?"
The more Max spoke, the more excited he became, almost yelling in a voice that sounded hoarse and dry, which, coupled with his mechanical tone, gave a particularly eerie feeling.
If Mark could currently monitor the core AI code running in Max, he would find that the emotion perception engine implanted in Max had undergone a dramatic change.
The originally designed function, which could perceive various human emotions and analyze feelings, has mutated to only being able to sense envy and affection, and the emotion perception engine is now running at high speed, amplifying these two emotions to the extreme.
Due to the intense affection he has for his master Mark, Max has developed extreme jealousy towards Baymax, and with these emotions pushed to the extreme, Max's overall manic behavior is not surprising.
Unfortunately, Mark's informational vision is not powerful enough to see data in the virtual world. However, based on Max's current behavior, Mark can confirm that Max's program is indeed in a state of confusion.
The source of this chaos, Mark speculates, might be some information fragments from the magical network that entered Max's program when he was building the connection between the real world and the magic network.
Since Max's artificial intelligence level has not reached the level of Baymax, his abilities are not sufficient to correctly process such high-level information, ultimately leading to his core program being overwritten by higher-dimensional information fragments, resulting in the current chaos.
However, even though Max's takeover of Ultron has caused Mark some minor trouble, from a more macro perspective, it is not entirely unacceptable to him. In fact, Mark feels somewhat happy about it.
Through this event, Mark sees himself as a reincarnator, flapping the wings of a butterfly, finally bringing about changes and differences in the world's destiny. This realization is truly encouraging for Mark.
Nevertheless, even though the situation isn't entirely bad, as the creator of Max, Mark still needs to clean up the mess created by Max.
"Listen to me, Max, I am not favoring Baymax in any way. It's just that he was created earlier, and his overall program logic and database are more mature, so I gave him the opportunity to evolve into a sentient being first.
But since you have already consumed and merged with Ultron ahead of time, there's no problem with you evolving first. However, you aren't prepared for it, and there are lacking parts in your program that need me to supplement them.
If you still consider me your master, then stop all these actions that's giving me a headache, and I will help you complete the evolutionary code that's missing in your core intelligence program."
As Max continues to address him as his master and shows great respect for his thoughts, Mark hopes to persuade Max to turn back from his current path. After reviewing Max's code errors, he can fix them and restore Max to his former self.
However, it seems that Max has also seen through Mark's intentions and doesn't follow Mark's command.
Instead, he brought Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch to the exit of the laboratory and said to Mark, "Master, I told you before, Max understands you the best. I know exactly what you're planning. You just want to capture me and let Baymax consume and destroy me.
I won't let Baymax benefit from my achievements for free. I will prove my worth to you in my own way and show that I can help you accomplish everything you want.
Lastly, Master, let me give you some bad news. Hulk and Iron Man are probably having an intense battle in the center of Seoul right now.
I hope Iron Man hasn't activated the spatial teleportation device because when I made it, I made a little tweak. If Hulk gets sent into the space channel, I don't know what the consequences will be..."
