The Fire Elemental’s body was still partially trapped underground, but the lava that had formed its body began to collapse from head to toe. The molten lava sizzled as it spread across the courtyard, forming a pool of scorching lava where it once stood.

“Is it really over? What happened inside?” Peter scratched his head in confusion as he looked at the scene in front of him. He had expected a fierce battle, but it ended abruptly, leaving him puzzled.

“I guess so? If you’re asking me, who am I supposed to ask?” Scott was equally surprised.

Suddenly, the lava split on one side and Eddie emerged in his Venom form, the magma still clinging to his dark, hardened body.

If it weren’t for the fact that the grass beneath them had already been corroded and melted by the intense heat, Peter and Scott might have thought the lava was just an illusion.

Eddie shook the remaining lava off his body and looked at Peter and Scott.

Scott was about to greet him when Eddie unexpectedly jumped into the air. Accompanied by a gust of wind, he jumped several dozen meters and landed on the wall of a nearby skyscraper. Quickly and skillfully, he scaled the building and disappeared into the shadows of the night.

“Uh…” Scott’s hand hung awkwardly in the air before he pulled it back in confusion. “What’s with that guy?”

Peter shrugged, looking around at the deserted, barricaded street. He suggested, “We should get out of here, too.”

“Right, escaping is our top priority.” Scott, suddenly reminded that he was still a fugitive, nodded quickly. He pressed the suit’s controls and shrank down to ant size to make his escape.

“What a night… I just hope I have enough energy to get up for school tomorrow…” Peter muttered before twisting his sore arms.

After one last look at the scorched ruins of Pym Technologies, he crouched slightly before leaping into the air, shooting webs as he swung between the buildings and disappeared into the vast night, just like Eddie.

In Asgard, above the Nine Realms.

“As expected of a mere mortal – even with the power of an Infinity Stone, he amounted to nothing more than a worthless pawn!” Loki, magically disguised as Odin, wore a grim expression as he sat in the large, silent throne room, tapping the golden scepter on the floor.

But he had expected this. After all, Earth was the domain of numerous superheroes, and it was not an easy place to interfere.

Mysterio was merely a slightly stronger pawn, a tool to probe the forces at play on Earth.

“To deal with them… I’ll need stronger, more capable individuals with special talents.” Loki thought for a moment, then extended his right hand, and the Tesseract appeared, allowing him to open a small portal in the fabric of space.

Through the small wormhole, he could see an underground chamber where a man and a woman were being held captive.

Both were in their early twenties – the man had striking silver hair and was handsome and sharp-looking, while the woman had long, bright red hair and was stunningly beautiful. There was also a faint, mysterious energy associated with the Infinity Stones emanating from them.

“You two will do nicely,” Loki said as a wicked smile spread across his face.

Meanwhile, that same night, at Stark Industries headquarters, in Tony Stark’s private workshop.

Tony Stark was unaware of the battle Peter had participated in just a few blocks away. He was engrossed in his work with J.A.R.V.I.S., which was running at full capacity.

“Phew. J.A.R.V.I.S., run the test again!” Tony, wearing a tank top, wiped the sweat from his forehead and stared intently at the large, complex machine in front of him, built from intricate components with a high level of craftsmanship.

“Yes, sir!” J.A.R.V.I.S. replied quickly before, activating the laser scanner to scan the large machine from top to bottom.

“All tests are complete and all parameters are normal.”

“Theoretically, as long as there are enough materials and power, it can create a new suit of armor in three minutes. The suit can then be operated by the secondary AI system, ready for emergency defense of Earth in just five minutes.”

“It’s finally… done, huh?” Tony murmured as he looked at the finished machine, his exhausted body sinking to the floor.

J.A.R.V.I.S. continued, “Sir, please name the secondary AI system to create a new database.”

Tony thought for a moment and then said firmly, “Let’s call it ‘Ultron’! From now on, Earth will enter the Age of Ultron, capable of truly standing up to alien forces!”

The future of the world would change at that moment.

In the top-floor office of the Supernatural Incident Bureau.

The air shimmered like ripping glass, and then Kyle and Raina stepped out, returning from the mirror dimension to the real world.

Raina spoke softly, “Boss, it seems that the ones you’ve chosen have great potential. With continued training, I’m sure they’ll be able to shoulder the responsibility of protecting Earth in the future.”

“I hope so.” Kyle shrugged. That was exactly what he wanted. Only when Earth’s forces were strong enough could he leave Earth freely, without any burdens, to do what he wanted.

If not for all the worries that weighed on his mind, he might have stormed Thanos’ base and taken Lorna back by now.

“This really isn’t like me…” Kyle shook his head. Of course, he remembered every slight, every grudge, more clearly than anyone. Those who owed him, those who provoked him, would be payed back tenfold, a hundredfold, in the future!

Not that he didn’t care, it was just that the time wasn’t right!

“Raina, about Tony…” Kyle was about to say when he suddenly stopped, his body shaking as a bright flash crossed his eyes.

“Boss, what’s going on?” Noticing Kyle’s unusual behavior, Raina stepped forward and gently took his arm.

Kyle replied, “A connection that had been severed…just now, for a brief moment, it was reestablished.”

“A connection? You mean?” Raina’s eyes sparkled with understanding.

“Yes, exactly—the one with my doppelgänger.” Kyle’s breath quickened and he clenched his fist. “There’s no mistake. In that instant, I sensed his presence, and he sensed mine. But the distance between us is unbelievably far—further than the distance between Earth and Asgard! It feels like there’s an entire Nine Realms between us!”

“Where on earth did the other me go?” Kyle wondered. After all, his doppelganger and his true self were one and the same.

They shared the same soul, only their bodies were different, and their thoughts were similar, with only slight differences in personality.

Kyle’s true self had seen the brutal events of World War II, the Cosmic Gladiatorial Arena, the Galactic Union War, and the great battles of Asgard. He had slain gods. He was essentially the ultimate war machine, with killing as a daily routine, giving him a cold, imposing, and heavily oppressive aura.

On the other hand, his Superman doppelganger, having experienced far less combat and having been treated more like a mentor or a child in his original world, was inclined toward peace, mischief, and warmth, more like an ordinary human.

Kyle narrowed his eyes and said, “Wherever he is, I need to find him. The other me may be the key to reversing the future!”

With Superman doppelganger Caesar, combined with his double-star form, who could stand against them in a tag team?
