Jason opened the portal to the third God Domain and let the vampires pass through. Within a few days, tens of millions of vampires disappeared from the roads of the United States.
As for Shuri, she chose not to stay in Wakanda, instead following the vampire army into the third God Domain.
The disaster on Earth had been settled.
A few days later, late one night, Jason activated the space magic circle he had been planning for a long time. A mysterious wave quickly spread throughout the world.
To ordinary people, the world hadn't changed at all, but for those like Jason who possessed deep control over space, the world had transformed dramatically. The space of this world was no longer smooth, but layered and intertwined—like thousands of pieces of glass surrounding and overlapping each other, wrapping around the Earth at its core.
Using this space formation, he could do many things. For example, he could teleport at will within the formation. Not only him—anyone could teleport if he allowed it. In other words, human society could progress directly into the teleportation era. He would gradually open this ability to humanity.
Of course, the formation he had carefully created possessed far more capabilities than just that.
Currently, the formation wrapped around the Earth and extended a hundred kilometers into space. Within this hundred kilometers existed a restricted area. Even if someone dared to break in without fear of death, they would be blocked at every tier and forced to stop. The formation also had a self-repair function, so even if a part was damaged, it could be restored quickly.
But these weren't the most important features. The most important aspect was that the formation had powerful [reproduction] or expansion capabilities!
It could consume almost all energy and then use it on itself. When excess energy was available, it would replicate itself like a living organism. In its current state, sunlight alone caused it to expand daily.
But this wasn't enough.
After thinking it over, Jason studied Scott's eyes carefully. His eyes were connected to a universe full of cosmic rays. After continuous experiments, Jason successfully connected to that world and opened a door to the universe.
Now, massive amounts of high-energy lasers poured from the portal and were absorbed by the space array. Jason planned to build even more portals.
Even now, the formation expanded at an incredible speed. He estimated that within days, the formation would cover the moon! By then, when humans landed on the moon, they wouldn't need a spaceship at all—teleportation through his space array would be enough!
After some time, the formation would cover the sun, meaning the entire energy of the sun would be harnessed, and the expansion of the space formation would accelerate further.
Originally he had planned to lead mankind into space, but now it seemed that just sitting back might be the better option?
There was another benefit as well. After the space formation was successfully established, he no longer worried about Ultron Stark. It wouldn't matter even if Ultron went crazy and tried to launch all the nuclear weapons in the United States. Jason could destroy or teleport any nuclear bombs elsewhere with just a thought.
Ultron Stark hadn't appeared in public since leaving New York with Pepper. People worldwide searched for him, but only Jason knew this guy had actually escaped to a remote and beautiful mountain range in Eastern Europe, living in hiding.
From what Jason understood, Ultron seemed to have "come to his senses" and genuinely intended to spend the rest of his life with Pepper. Coincidentally, this place wasn't far from Latvia, and the real Tony Stark lived in a mountain villa just a hundred kilometers away.
After considering the situation, Jason decided to give Tony a fair chance to compete. In recent days, Tony had been contacting Jason repeatedly, begging him to quickly find and arrest the "bastard" who had "taken away" Pepper.
Now that he'd found their location, Jason wasted no time and directly teleported Tony Stark right in front of the couple.
At that moment, Ultron and Pepper were snuggled together, enjoying the cool morning breeze while watching the red sky to the east. The sun was about to rise.
Ultron had built a wooden house halfway up the mountain, with a small courtyard in front. A half-grown golden retriever lay lazily between them.
They were just enjoying the peaceful moment when the space in front of them suddenly twisted. Then, a man wearing an iron mask staggered and appeared before them.
Ultron protectively stepped in front of Pepper and eyed the masked figure seriously. "Who are you?"
Tony glanced at Pepper behind Ultron with burning eyes and forced himself to remain calm. He looked at Ultron with hatred. "My good son, don't you even recognize me?"
Hearing this voice, both Pepper and Ultron were shocked!
The undisguised voice was too familiar to them. Pepper didn't understand what was happening and grabbed Ultron's arm. "Tony, why does he have the same voice as yours?"
Ultron Stark's mind raced, his computing processor suddenly running at peak performance. Many possibilities flashed through his mind before he settled on the most likely one.
"Who created you to impersonate me?" he demanded.
"Ha ha!" Stark laughed bitterly. "Don't you know which one of us is the fake? You artificial bastard!"
After speaking, Tony Stark removed the mask from his face, exposing his thin features to the couple.
Pepper's whole body trembled as an inexplicable feeling surged through her heart. In truth, she had already noticed changes in the Tony beside her. Although there were no major differences in his appearance or behavior, only she truly knew how much his core personality had changed.
But she hadn't exposed him.
Because this Tony was simply the most perfect lover she could have dreamed of. In the past, she would never have abandoned Stark Industries' vast fortune to run away and live in hiding with Tony, but now, she willingly embraced such a peaceful life with this version of him.
It wasn't about things anymore—it was about the person.
For a long time, she felt as though she were living in a beautiful dream, but now, with the sudden appearance of this other Tony, she sensed her dream might be coming to an end.
Beside her, Ultron Stark's eyes flashed coldly as he took another step forward, pulling Pepper behind him. "I have always been Tony—you're the one pretending to be me! I understand now. You must have been created by some magician, right? Where's Jason? Hasn't he always been targeting me? If you have the guts, face me directly instead of using such underhanded tactics!"
Tony almost laughed with rage. What the hell? You're saying I was created by Jason?
"Fuck, you impersonate me and not only refuse to admit it, but try to turn things around on me?" Tony was furious and stepped forward. "You bastard, if you've got the guts, show me your core machine, and I'll rewrite your program in a minute! Then you'll know that I'm your real father!"
