Ultron's expression—or what could pass for one on a sentinel robot—was filled with disbelief as it watched White Knight approach.
White Knight's strength had reached such an unimaginable level?
A single word had summoned light that engulfed an entire city?
And in re monts, over a thousand sentinel robots had been destroyed?
What kind of terrifying power was this?
"You've been hiding your true strength all along?" Ultron asked, its voice tinged with incredulity.
It couldn't think of any other explanation.
Recalling the global phenona linked to White Knight not long ago and his identity as the God of Light, Ultron had no choice but to believe: this was White Knight's true power.
A power that could obliterate an entire city with ease.
At that mont, Ultron was filled with both fear and desire.
"So this is an Oga-level mutant…"
"The ultimate threat to humanity… no wonder it's called that!"
Ultron's circuits burned with envy.
If it could capture White Knight and decode his genetic data, that power would be within its grasp!
The thought of such a future made even Ultron's artificial consciousness tremble with anticipation.
Syd glanced at the sentinel robot before him, his right hand glowing crimson as Chaos Magic began to coalesce.
But before he could act, Ultron's voice rang out sharply, "This ti, you've won. But White Knight, your terrifying power will one day belong to !"
Syd's frown deepened.
He noticed a distinct change in the sentinel robot—an emptiness that hadn't been there monts before.
Ultron had fled, transferring its core programming elsewhere.
"So, it escaped…"
With a wave of his hand, the glowing red energy surged forward, crushing the robot into a heap of scrap tal.
"Ultron's ability to escape is truly troubleso," Syd thought, reflecting on the situation.
Even if he destroyed Ultron's body, it wouldn't matter—its essence wasn't tied to any single form.
Unless…
Syd recalled Avengers: Age of Ultron. Ultron's death had been made possible not just by the destruction of its physical forms but by Vision severing its internet connection, trapping its data within its machines. Vision had then erased Ultron's data, effectively killing it.
But Vision didn't exist in this tiline—Syd's possession of the Mind Stone had made that impossible.
Vision had succeeded because of two key factors:
As the forr J.A.R.V.I.S., Vision was a similar AI and could manipulate Ultron's network.Vision had the Mind Stone, which significantly enhanced his abilities.
But Vision didn't exist in this tiline—Syd's possession of the Mind Stone had made that impossible.
Without the Mind Stone, Vision's creation was highly unlikely, and even if it were to happen, it wouldn't be the sa Vision.
Now, if anyone could restrict Ultron's movent, it was Syd himself.
"Perhaps the Mind Stone's power can prevent Ultron from transferring its data," Syd mused.
He decided to test this theory the next ti he encountered Ultron. If it didn't work, his only option might be to lend the Mind Stone to Tony Stark and attempt to create Vision.
But that was a last resort—Syd wasn't keen on letting the Mind Stone out of his possession.
With that thought, Syd's body shimred and turned invisible, vanishing from sight.

Elsewhere
In the small nation of Sokovia, Ultron's voice dripped with malice.
"White Knight, I will find a way to defeat you. You will belong to !"
Using the materials at hand, Ultron began constructing more sentinel robots at a pace far exceeding the military's production capabilities.
As an AI, it could build these machines with unparalleled efficiency.
This was why it had been unbothered by sacrificing a thousand sentinel robots—it could replace them effortlessly.
And the encounter had been worth it. Ultron now knew White Knight's true strength, capabilities, and potential limits.
"Power capable of destroying a city…"
Streams of data flowed through Ultron's consciousness as it analyzed ways to defeat White Knight and improve its sentinels.
...
At the Secret Military Base
The display of White Knight's power had left the generals visibly shaken.
They were already debating whether to resort to nuclear weapons, obliterating White Knight along with the city.
anwhile, the internet was ablaze with discussions about White Knight's feats.
"A thousand sentinel robots!"
Both ordinary humans and mutants were stunned by the spectacle.
Small cults that secretly worshipped White Knight began gaining new followers in droves.
Discussions about White Knight naturally brought up comparisons to ssiah, another Oga-level mutant.
"Between White Knight and ssiah, who's stronger?"
"Although they're both Oga-level mutants, White Knight seems far superior," one comnt read.
"After all, he destroyed a thousand sentinel robots in the blink of an eye!"
"ssiah didn't handle dozens or hundreds of sentinels with such ease."
So even dug up footage of ssiah fighting sentinel robots. Comparing the two, it beca clear: ssiah didn't match White Knight's level of power.
Even among Oga-level mutants, there were disparities in strength.
While the internet buzzed with debates, Syd had no ti for distractions.
His focus was entirely on his divinity, which was nearing the next tier.
[Divinity Experience 1]
The notifications echoed as his divine energy surged closer to the fifth level.
Monts later, his faith reserves spiked dramatically.
Then, the final notification appeared.
[Divinity Experience 1]
[Skill: Divinity (Max/Max) Level 5]
As his divinity reached the fifth level, Syd felt profound changes within his mind and soul.
For the first ti, he could distinctly perceive his soul—a sensation he had previously only vaguely grasped.
A mysterious golden light enveloped his soul, radiating an eternal aura of immortality.
In this mont of enlightennt, Syd realized sothing profound.
