Last chap is the last one for the dungeon arc

Inside the church, the Avengers and I fought hordes and hordes of bots, as Tony tried to avoid Ultron unloading his consciousness into the body.

It was one of those missions, where you had only to survive for a x amount of time.

Which was super easy, with others helping you, Thor and Hulk especially, there were powerhouses of their own and tore through the robots like nothing.

"Tony how long!?" Cap asked, throwing his shield towards a pillar, to bounce it off on one of the drones.

"I don't know!" Tony replied, sounding annoyed, "This is very complicated, even for me, so keep doing what you know, and let me do what I know!"

"It's not like we aren't trying!" Clint shot back, dodging a robot.

"Give the man some space," I said, killing a few robots using [Savagery] I was, after all, saving my mana for Ultron, for is common knowledge the second fight with the same boss is usually the hardest.

"Thanks!" Tony shouted, going back to work on Vision's body.

This continued for an hour or so until Tony exclaimed all that was left to do, was fill the body with something else, otherwise, the body would always represent a threat, apparently, as long as the body was empty, there was a risk of Ultron uploading his data once again, even if the body was disconnected from the hive mind Ultron had created.

"Put Jarvis in it!" I exclaimed.

"Jarvis was killed by Ultron!" Tony shot back, only for the plot to intervene.

{It saddens me you think so little of me, sir,} First time the narrative works in my favor since I entered the dungeon.

"Jarvis?" Tony muttered.

{The one and only, Ms. Pepper, helped me connect back to the servers, seeing as Ultron was otherwise busy fighting you and your friends, talking about that, would you like some pizza for your friends?}

I snorted.

"No," Tony coughed, "We actually need you to… get into this body," he added.

"I don't think that's a good idea," Cap said, frowning.

"Just do it," I sighed, "I won't have you guys fighting for what could happen, or not, all we need now is for Ultron to not have access to his Godlike body,"

"I'm with the mortal," Thor nodded.

"Same," Clint nodded.

"I don't like it, but what choice do we have?" Nat sighed.

"Well, majority rules, sorry cap, democracy and all, you fought for that, so smile!" Tony chuckled, getting back to work on the body, this time, modifying Jarvis's code to fit Vision's body.

"I won't let you steal my VISION!" Ultron exclaimed, coming into view, with a brand new body, that looked like he had juiced himself up with roids.

I fucking knew it, second boss fight, same boss, stronger boss.

"We need to protect Tony while he works," I stated, creating a shield around Tony, with Clint and Nat inside of it.

"Hey, I'm trapped!" Clint exclaimed. 

"He wants us here," Nat smiled in realization, "The shield he made, it's not indestructible, so he needs someone to deal with the drones that come to the shield, he needs weapons inside the shield, and we are that,"

I nodded, there was no need for more clarification.

"I will tear every single one of you apart," Ultron hissed.

"You are not mighty enough," Thor shot back, making me giggle, even in a simulation, he was still the same Thor.

"Keep every drone as far away from the shield as possible," I said, turning to look at Hulk, "And Hulk, Smash,"

Hulk grinned, before jumping towards the endless army of drones with a roar.

"Avengers!" Cap shouted, "Attack!"

And so, the battle started, hundreds of drones pushing forward, with us fighting to stop them.

For me, this was especially difficult, unlike Wanda, or Thor, I had to focus on fighting physically to keep the shield running as long as possible, meaning that while defeating the drones was relatively easy, fighting hundreds of them at a time, was extremely hard.

If I had to explain it, I would say it's like fighting one roach, vs a million roaches, at one point the roaches will overrun you, or at least make every movement a pain to make.

"You!" Ultron turned, blasting Cap away. "You took everything from me,"

"Well to be fair!" I replied, killing a dozen drones with a single [Focused Strike] only for a hundred to replace them, "You did try to kill me, so like they say, in love and war, all it's fair,"

"I did, and now, I will succeed on that endeavor," Ultron hissed, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of me, grabbing me by the neck, tearing my armor, "Now, I wonder, will that shield break, if I break your neck?"

Struggling against his grasp, I tried to move as he slowly but surely choked me, but his bots kept my arms and legs tight.

Inwardly cursing, I tried to use my telekinesis to push him away, but he didn't budge whatsoever.

"Die," Ultron muttered, and without saying another word tightened his grip, snapping my neck like a cracker, before throwing my body into the sea of bots under him like a bag of trash.

Unfortunately for him, breaking my neck, was not a killing move when it came to me, so before my body fell into the sea of bots, I turned and pushed myself off the bots, towards Wanda, my neck already healed by that point.

"You are not a normal human," Ultron sighed, "Oh well, next try I will cut your head off,"

Talking about that, what part of me shouted normal human, I had portals and used magic, Ultron is getting dumber by the sec, must be all those roids he's been taking.

"How about no," I coughed, spitting some blood into the ground alongside a piece of bone? Oh shit.

Boy was I glad my regeneration was high, otherwise, this would've ended poorly for me.

"Done!" Tony shouted.

"No, no, no!" Ultron snapped his attention to Tony, who had no other than Vision standing beside him.

"Hello, Ultron," Vision said, sounding as British as the original Vision.

"My vision…" Ultron muttered, hand stretching out towards Vision full of melancholy, "I was meant to be you, I was meant to be beautiful…" 

"You could start by loving yourself," Tony suggested, snapping Ultron out of his depressed trance.

"Well, seeing as you destroyed my plan, I will towards my plan b, killing everything the old-fashioned way," Ultron hissed.
