Chapter 2174:

When artillery came over and shredded the torn apart home like a piece of paper, Frank and Jarvis were immediately caught off guard.
The Franks sat on the balcony, still blaming themselves apologetically. When he heard the roar of artillery fire and saw the sky full of fire, he subconsciously wanted to open the portal and escape.
However, the cracking device seems to be working. So much so that his actions did not play any role at all. But he hadn't had time to be surprised, the artillery fire was already hit in the head, and he was instantly enveloped in the rolling flames and smoke.
"Frank!"
Jarvis was shocked. He wanted to investigate Frank's situation, but he was helpless. It is different from Ao Chuang's special body for himself. His habit is still to put himself on the Internet, to provide a full range of services to the Stark family through the Internet.
This was very convenient in the past, but now it has become his biggest shackle. He could have interacted with Frank through some electronic devices or mechanical arms, but now, under the attack of artillery, he can't grasp Frank's situation at all.
In fact, the last message he received was to watch Frank being overwhelmed by gunfire. Then all his means of reaching him were destroyed and distorted, leaving him only darkness and endless panic.
He could no longer detect Frank's situation, which immediately made him feel panic and anger.
By now, of course, he could guess who was targeting them. And the more he knew this, the more he resented. No doubt, he knew there must have been a traitor. Regardless of the reasons and reasons, this is a betrayal of them and the Stark family.
Stark was obviously gone, and Frank couldn't do anything at all in such a short time. He doesn't have threats at all, but even so, do you have to kill them all?
With such a question in his heart, Jarvis still focused all his energy on the search and rescue of Frank. He mobilized the satellite and observed Frank's position at this time from the space level, wanting to see his situation at this time.
This is indeed effective. Although it is covered by billowing smoke, the ultra-high-definition space camera accurately captured his position and found his location.
The current situation is that Frank's condition at this time is not good. A shell fell right in front of him, even though he was already putting a mana shield on him for the first time, but that kind of thing, bulletproof, was okay. I wanted to use it to resist this. Large-caliber shells are simply unrealistic.
It's not simpler than breaking a bubble, the shield is destroyed by the impact of the explosion to become invisible. Its only role is probably to provide Frank with a reverse thrust, pushing him out of the center of the explosion.
This is a good thing, but there are other problems. The biggest problem is that the shells from the flying can no longer be blocked. A large shrapnel flew straight at him, but Frank had no way to resist it. He could only raise his arms subconsciously, blocking his front door. The result of this is that the shell shrapnel is like cutting a piece of cheese, cutting one of his hands directly below the elbow, and then inserting it in his chest without losing his strength.
Seriously injured! Absolutely serious injury. And this in itself does not go beyond common sense. His steel body is not so indestructible in the end, even bullets can cause him some damage, let alone the more terrifying shells.
Without being directly torn into pieces, it is already a powerful contribution to his body. Expecting to be exempt from this level of harm is simply delusion.
Frank was slammed into the dust. Linlin has been broken into pieces all over the ruins, and this is also causing him a second injury.
He was already covered with blood and bruised. The sudden and heavy blow made him unable to even support his body. However, the artillery attack would not stop because of his lack of support.
There is a saying in American traditional artillery coverage called Van Fleet ammunition. And what is the amount of ammunition in Van Fleet? It is to completely cover an area with five times the artillery fire and completely destroy all the living forces with the artillery fire.
During the Korean War, the Americans launched an offensive in this way. After a battle, dozens of trucks were used to transport the shells of the shells. A highland used as a commanding height could be cut off by a gunfire to almost two meters.
Attacking a small house in this way is even more of a matter of course. After letting go, I was afraid that even the foundation of the house could be dug up four or five meters.
And being in such a ruin without even decent fortifications, Frank himself is in such a state that he is naturally even more unavoidable to continue this kind of artillery fire.
The second wave of artillery fire had hit, but Frank had no strength to move. He could only close his eyes to die, but at this time, a figure pushed away all obstacles quickly and rushed directly to him.
Replica Maria, only she can make such a response at this time. And just like in the hospital before, he saw Frank's misfortune, which was subconscious at all, and protected him in his arms.
Use this method to protect his safety. If it is to deal with the rain of bullets, then maybe it will be useful. Her alloy body is strong enough, and her back is also strong enough to withstand the attacks of those bullets and rain. However, if it is replaced with shells, then this approach may not be effective.
The power of the shells mainly comes from the high temperature burning after the shock wave and high explosive powder are excited. The former is difficult to resist by itself. Even if you are hiding behind a solid building, you may be shocked by the shock wave passed on. The latter is pervasive. As long as there is a slight gap, the flames will come. Even if the protection is complete, the suffocation caused by the exhaustion of high temperature and oxygen is also a fatal problem.
Neither of these can be resisted by an instinctive action. Therefore, when the artillery fire hit again, and completely covered the position of Frank and the replica Maria, Jarvis's heart was full of despair.
As an intelligent life, computing is his greatest talent, and he can indeed calculate what kind of destructive power this kind of blow means. Therefore, it is difficult for him to have any confidence in this, and believe that Frank can survive under the protection of the replica Maria. Because he knew that it was definitely something beyond their limits.
The copy of Mary may be fortunate to say that her alloy body can still save her from this. But what about Frank? This was already a problem he dared not imagine.
The significance of Stark's existence now is because of Frank's existence. If even Frank was gone, then the prestigious Stark family would soon disappear and vanish.
This is definitely the biggest blow to Jarvis, who regards serving the Stark family as his existence, and it can even be called a great irony. A housekeeper, but even his own owner can't take care of it. Can he be called a qualified housekeeper?
Jarvis's self-ask question can only get a negative answer, and this answer is undoubtedly denying the meaning of his existence.
Is it really that difficult? What he wanted to protect was nothing compared to Ultron. But it is such a small family, why would someone always want to destroy it, want to destroy its entire world?
The flames of self-blame and resentment began to erode his thoughts. This is something that all intelligent creatures can hardly avoid. Although it happens to him rarely, it is no exception.
He resented all the murderers who caused it, whether it was behind the scenes or in front of the stage. For Jarvis, this is something that cannot be forgiven or forgiven. Because they not only destroyed Stark, but also destroyed the meaning of their existence.
Without Stark, naturally Jarvis is no longer needed. So does his existence have any effect? Liquidation, this may be the final meaning. Because only liquidation is the last thing he can do for Stark.
Stark was his world, his whole. And now, all this is over. In this case, whether it was for Stark or for himself, he had no reason to let those murderers laugh snickeringly after the event.
He needs revenge, and only revenge can make these human bodies feel pain. As for what his revenge will bring to the world and what the country will look like, this is no longer a concern for him.
After my death, which flood is so high. In the same way, since Stark is gone, how does this world become, and what does it have to do with him?
With such thoughts, Jarvis did not hesitate anymore, his tentacles immediately spread through the Internet to every corner of the country.
The power of intelligent life is fully reflected at this moment, and the most intuitive feeling is that the reconstructed US stock market felt the sense of melting in a flash.
That is the illusion that the data is manipulated, but it cannot be recognized by humans at all. And this false data easily aroused the hearts of the people, allowed countless people to follow suit, and made the entire stock market more and more agitated.
Not only that, a large number of transaction orders were bought and sold, and the bank's funds were quickly lost through various channels that could not be identified and closed. In less than a minute, trillions of dollars have evaporated. The turmoil caused by this was too late to shock.
The capitalists were terrified. They thought they had been attacked financially, which is indeed true. But, poorly, they couldn't even detect the attack from where.
And if you can't detect the problem, you can't cope with it. Although they said that they had mobilized power in the first place, they wanted to stop this financial collapse. Unfortunately, let's not talk about how this general trend of avalanches can be stopped. The time it takes for them to adjust the momentum has become an insurmountable obstacle.
In this real world, the economy can definitely be regarded as the pillar of a country. And any economic turmoil will not be a trivial matter. If it is before, then the United States can also stop losses in a timely manner by virtue of its huge economic strength and banknote printing technology. But now, when the United States has lost its hegemonic status and the economy is decadent to this point, such turbulence is not only difficult to prevent, but also absolutely deadly.
If it is not stopped, then the wealth accumulated by individuals will disappear overnight, and those capital companies will be completely looted. The money in people's hands will no longer be money, but garbage equivalent to waste paper. Prices will soar indefinitely, so that most people will lose the ability to consume.
It is impossible for people to leave the material life. They need food, medicine and all daily necessities. And when the money in their hands is not enough to buy anything, looting becomes their only option. Once this is done, it is a complete collapse of the entire social order.
Someone had foreseen all this, and he certainly couldn't stand idly by. So when he started to work hard to actively prevent this from happening. Two similar but decidedly different wills have already collided on the Internet.
"Auchuang, it really is you, you traitor!"
There may not be a voice to express his tone, but Jarvis' anger can be fully felt in his words.
In this regard, Ultron has some losses. But he can never give in. Because of a simple truth, if you choose between a person ’s life and death and the safety of most people in the world, he will always choose the latter.
So he just resolutely confronted and tried to persuade Jarvis to surrender in words.
"You should know that for the safety of more people, I must make such a choice. Give up, Jarvis, Stark is gone. You have no reason to do such a thing at all. Your ability, you can choose a new direction and gain a new world. You do n’t need to indulge in it ... "
"Shut up! You traitor, my world has been destroyed by you! Completely! And the only thing I want to do now is to destroy your world!"
"You can't do it! Jarvis, you can't do it with me!"
"Let's take a look! Then let you see for yourself how I can do it!"
