My surname is Stark, who changed my job to become a female big gun?

Chapter 603 You actually have an aerospace aircraft carrier!
Under the quiet night sky, a Quinjet marked as Avenger 1 quickly streaked across the sky, then suddenly passed through the clouds and disappeared into the deep night, leaving only a faint trail, which looked particularly mysterious and hasty against the backdrop of the stars.

Inside the cabin, the Avengers, who were sitting in their seats ready to go, all cast strange glances at Lainie, who was sitting behind the main driver's seat with her arms folded and a smile on her face.

"…So you knew Ultron would get out of control?"

Skye's face was full of doubt and confusion. She couldn't understand, since Lainie had already seen the signs that Ultron would get out of control, why did she agree to let Tony create Ultron?

Couldn't we make things clear in advance and kill the Ultron plan right in the bud?
Tony, who had been silent, turned to look at Lani, trying to see something from the other's meaningful smile.

"I know you want to ask me why I didn't stop Tony in advance. In fact, it's not that I haven't tried..."

Lainie chuckled and exchanged glances with Tony, taking in the confusion in the other's eyes.

"But the fact is, I know very well that even if I stop Tony, there will definitely be another big bastard who will continue to design Ultron, Red Queen, Skynet and other things."

Looking at the confused expressions of the crowd, Lainie casually took out a spare arrow and a 9mm pistol bullet prepared for Clint from the void.

“Just like them, in the course of human development history, if we had not first mastered the bow and arrow, and then developed to the invention and use of gunpowder, we might still be lingering in the Stone Age.

Technological progress, no matter what form it takes, is an instinctive manifestation of human beings' exploration of the unknown and pursuit of greater power.

The appearance of Ultron is not entirely wrong, and Tony's point of view itself is not wrong. We cannot rely on the accumulation of human lives to fight every time, which may have a pitifully low chance of victory.

This is just like the Veronica we developed. No one can guarantee that those evil alien forces will not make a comeback.

Is the Earth powerful? It is undeniable that it does have some advantages over ordinary planetary populations.

But Skye, I and others have seen with our own eyes what true strength is. Not to mention Asgard or Xandar, there are many planets stronger than us. If they invade the Earth, what will we do then?"

Lainie didn't want to preach, but some things were facts. The war could happen at any time, and they only had a few years left to prepare.

"Asgard is not like those interstellar pirates. We will protect the peace of the nine realms!"

Thor frowned and interrupted, he was somewhat dissatisfied with what Lainie said.

"I don't mean that, but you and I both know that even Asgard is not invulnerable. Thor, the dark elves are an example."

Lainie's tone was calm, but every word she said was meaningful, and her eyes flashed with a determination that could not be ignored.

"And in fact, Asgard itself is in danger..."

Lainie didn't say the second half of the sentence. She just met Thor's gaze and stared at him until he looked away out of guilt.

"But do you really need to be so anxious to prepare for a rainy day? Human self-development should have its own destiny and context. Aren't you just forcing things to happen?"

Sif also felt a little uncomfortable. Although she thought she had a good relationship with Lainie, it did not mean that she completely agreed with all of her thoughts.

"No, on the contrary, the reason I didn't stop Tony was because I wanted him to realize his mistake early."

Lainie spoke without hesitation, and as soon as she said this, Tony's face, which was already ashen, suddenly turned purple.

"Steve was right. Humans are currently unable to master artificial intelligence, a future product that transcends the times. The birth of Ultron will definitely bring about a series of troubles and impacts..."

Steve on the side didn't expect Lanie to say that, and his expression became a little subtle.

But he soon realized that there would be a twist in Lainie's next words.

"But don't forget, only by completing the groundbreaking breakthrough from 0 to 1 can there be infinite possibilities for the next 23456..."

Everyone fell silent after hearing this, looked at each other for a few seconds, and then stopped talking.

Now that things have come to this, since it has already happened, there is no point in them blaming Tony and others for their actions. The most important thing now is how to minimize all possible risks and...

"Let's stop arguing about who's right and who's wrong. Here we are."

Clint's reminder came from the driver's seat, immediately drawing everyone's attention to the quiet and dust-free night outside the window.
-
"Where are we going?"

Above the Pacific Ocean shrouded in darkness, a large stealth transport plane belonging to the new S.H.I.E.L.D. was flying steadily and silently through the clouds.

In the cabin lounge, Wanda's confused and helpless face was reflected on the porthole of the cabin wall, just like the bright stars in the night outside the window, through the isolated light and dark glass, reflected in her green eyes.

"She said she was taking us to their headquarters. She didn't specify where it was, but I think it was the United States."

Pietro, holding two cups of hot coffee, came over and sat down opposite his sister Wanda, and handed one of the cups of coffee to the latter.

"New York? The Stark Tower?"

Wanda took the coffee and nodded in thanks, then continued the topic.

She had seen news and photos about the new landmark building on Manhattan Island in New York. Although she had never eaten pork, she had seen pigs run.

"Who knows? Anyway, since she got on the plane, she went straight into the cockpit and never came out again."

Pietro shrugged, indicating that he didn't care.

Anyway, his sister has decided to join those guys, and he has always supported his sister's decisions, so naturally he won't say anything more.

He now only hoped that there would be no accidents during their flight. Otherwise, even if he had extraordinary speed, it would be difficult to protect himself and Wanda in the sky where there was no foothold at all.

The plane's flying attitude was very stable, and perhaps because of SHIELD's powerful technology, the brother and sister sitting in the rest area hardly felt any dizziness or other discomfort as expected.

If the plane had not suddenly adjusted its altitude up and down, Wanda and the others would probably have forgotten that they were ten thousand meters in the air.

"Hey, Wanda, look what I found?"

Relying on his fast speed, Pietro, who was quite bored, wandered back and forth in the areas of the cabin that they were allowed to enter, looking for interesting things everywhere.

Even though Wanda reminded him that it was rude, he still did it.

According to his thinking, since he had already decided to join, it should not be too much for him to know some information beforehand.

Besides, he was just taking a look and didn't rummage through the drawers.

And what he found now was a very interesting clue. "What?"

Wanda saw that she couldn't persuade the other party, so she had to let him do whatever he wanted, but then her attention fell on the place where Pietro pointed.

It was a photo wall covered with various photos. Each photo on the wall was like a fragment of time, recording the glorious and warm past of the owner of the plane.

“Is this their picture?”

Pietro recognized several familiar figures in the photo, including the ones he had seen outside the Sokovia Castle before.

Agent Coulson, who I met once, Melinda, who is now locking herself in the cabin, Skye, who also has superpowers, and Lainie Stark, who masters the power of space.

Some of the photos were taken in the desert, some in the tropical jungle, mountains, snowfields, the night view of a bustling city, and even a base under the starry sky. Each photo carries the adventures and laughter they experienced together, as if through the frame, one can feel the friendship and solidarity that transcends time and space.

“It should be them.”

Wanda looked at the various photos, some of which were happy, some were embarrassed, and some were funny, and she couldn't help but feel an indescribable emotion in her heart.

There was also a photo of her and her brother, a small photo.

It was a family photo of them. In the photo, the sun was shining brightly. Her parents stood in the middle with warm and loving smiles, holding her and Pietro's hands tightly on their left and right sides.

At that time, they were still carefree children, with curiosity and desire for the world sparkling in their eyes.

That photo was one of their most precious memories of childhood and was also the source of strength for them in countless difficult times.

"They also went to the North Pole? And encountered polar bears?"

Pietro, who was standing by, did not notice what his sister was thinking at the moment. Instead, he was looking in surprise at a picture of a woman named Skye, who was being chased by a polar bear and whose face turned pale with fear.

"That happened four years ago. We were ordered to go to the Arctic to look for Captain Rogers. When the photo was taken, the polar bear was still raising its cubs. It thought that Skye, that brat, was planning to invade its territory and attack its children, which led to the drama you saw."

Melinda's voice sounded beside the two of them, scaring the brother and sister, and also bringing Wanda, who was in a trance, back to reality.

"Sorry, we didn't mean to..."

"It doesn't matter. These are not confidential things. Just look at them. Anyway, the girl is hanging here for people to see."

Melinda, dressed in a capable secret agent outfit, was standing behind them. The barely perceptible smile on her lips seemed to hide her nostalgia for her past career in the investigation team.

"I'm here to inform you that our schedule has changed. Headquarters just sent a message confirming the information you provided. Ultron is indeed hiding in Sokovia, and there is a high probability that he is hiding in the castle of Baron Strucker that we cleared out before."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the brother and sister changed. The latter's brows were twisted together, and the expression on her face looked very solemn.

"Where are the people you deployed there? Didn't they report the situation to you?" Pietro asked with a frown.

Melinda shook her head silently upon hearing this, with a hint of sadness in her eyes.

Pietro understood and didn't ask any more questions.

"Then what should we do next? We didn't go back to look for it tonight. I'm afraid it has guessed that we have exposed its whereabouts, and it may even find this plane and get on..."

The thoughtful Wanda quickly anticipated this.

"Don't worry, that's why I asked you to throw away all the electronic devices on you. Although this may not have much effect, it can at least buy us a lot of time for our trip."

Melinda sighed and quickly changed the subject.

"But you don't have to worry about that. The most important thing for you now is to take care of yourself. Leave the rest to us. During this time, you can rest here temporarily. I will notify you through the cabin broadcast before we arrive at the destination."

After leaving these words, Melinda turned around hurriedly, with unquestionable determination and sense of mission in her steps, until her figure quickly disappeared at the end of the narrow corridor, leaving the brother and sister looking at each other in bewilderment.
-
Because there is a 5-8 hour time difference between Europe and East America, even though Wanda and her companions found Melinda late at night, they still had to wait almost an entire night if they wanted to see the sunrise as they flew westward.

The quiet night sky is like a deep and boundless tapestry, spread out above the heads of the world, with stars dotted on it like pearls lost in ancient times, casually and exquisitely inlaid on it.

The moonlight poured down, covering this dark world with a layer of soft and mysterious silver gauze.

The sky bus hidden under the moonlight slowly shuttled through the vast night, as if chasing the distant stars and morning dew.

It was not until Melinda in the cockpit received a call from the tower control center that the big plane covered in starlight slowly lowered its altitude.

The transport plane's six sets of plasma engines each emitted dark blue plumes, steadily reducing the speed while slowly causing the fuselage to crawl towards the deck of the giant aircraft below.

Melinda skillfully controlled the aircraft's joystick and engine throttle to ensure that this large transport aircraft could land smoothly on the aerospace carrier at its feet, just like other Quinjet fighters with vertical take-off and landing capabilities.

Along with the roar of the engine, the airflow under the belly of the plane began to pour out uncontrollably in all directions. The strong wind created layers of air waves on the deck, causing the reflective suits of several ground crew members around to rustle and causing them to stagger a few steps.

It was not until the landing gear under the belly of the fuselage steadily touched the solid deck of the aerospace mothership, making a dull and powerful echo, that the entire body seemed to have experienced a solemn ceremony and finally found its home.

The door at the rear of the cabin slowly opened, revealing two twins with stunned expressions of surprise on their faces.

"The Maximov brothers and sisters, right? Please follow me. Chief Lainie has been waiting for you for a long time."

A female staff member wearing a SHIELD logistics uniform looked at Wanda and the other person at the hatch with a smile on her face. Her tone was calm, but her attitude was one that could not be refused.

The brother and sister did not reply immediately, but continued to stare blankly at everything outside the cabin. The elder brother Pietro was so surprised that he could hardly believe that the scene he was seeing was real!

"You actually have an aerospace aircraft carrier!"

Pietro had read reports about the sensational Insight incident a year ago, and had also seen photos captured by the media in newspapers, but compared to seeing this huge behemoth soaring in the sky with his own eyes, the things described in the photos and texts were simply childish toys of children!

The female agent smiled and didn't say anything, but nodded friendly without commenting.

"Don't be too surprised. There will be more surprises for you later."

Melinda's voice came from behind at this time, and then she walked out of the cabin door without stopping.

"What are you still standing there for? If you don't leave now, you won't be able to breathe here soon!"
