Marvel crosses Star Wars, and everyone attacks the galaxy

Chapter 408: Farewell to Bontrie and Leaving Lazacas

"Mom?" Lux's tone was filled with worry, as he witnessed his usually energetic mother's frustration and defeat. And he was not the only one who felt uneasy.

Aunt Padme and her new friend also returned to Bontry Manor with an indescribably heavy heart, and they all avoided looking directly into his eyes.

"What happened?" he asked warily, nervousness evident in his voice.

Spider-Man stepped forward, placed a hand gently on his shoulder, and gave his answer. "Things are going a little off the rails, Lux."

Barris sighed, "Peace talks were ready and about to begin with the Republic. However, Ultron appeared--"

"What?!" Mina's son exclaimed, his voice full of horror.

He looked at his mother again, this time with a sharper gaze, trying to find any signs of injury on her face. "Mom, you..."

"I'm fine." Mina's voice was trembling, but her smile was forced.

"Not physically, but he took over the holocomm and addressed the rest of the council. What he said was deeply disturbing to all of us," Ahsoka further explained.

"He's pretty much made his thoughts public," Spider-Man muttered to himself, rubbing his fingers over the top of his head. "I don't even know how this is going to turn out."

"Uh--what did he say? What did he want?" Lux demanded nervously.

Spider-Man pulled his shirt open slightly, revealing the spider-insignia, "I recorded everything. I'll leave you a transcript so you can watch it for yourself."

"Thank you, Peter." Mina's voice was soft and full of gratitude.

Lux felt a surge of confusion as he watched his mother's dismay. It was almost as bad as when they learned of their father's death. "Mom, are you sure you—" he began again, but was interrupted by Mina Bontry.

Lux Bontry put his hand under his chin in silent thought.

Lux watched her mother's broken expression, tears falling from her eyes.

The scene at this moment upset her, as if she had returned to that difficult time. She hugged her son tightly, tears flowing like a spring, and she was sad beyond words. Her son could only hug her back and pat her back, trying to calm her down. He looked around and saw the frustration and grief of others, and Padmé silently walked towards her friend and gave her a comforting hug.

Mina held Padmé in her arms, their grief and pain echoing off the walls of the manor like a symphony of sorrow. Barriss, Ahsoka, and Spider-Man stood there, unsure of how to react or even how to act in the face of this sudden onslaught of emotions.

After a while, Mina stopped the last of her tears and looked up, but she still held Lux ​​and Padme tightly. She didn't say anything, but the gratitude in her eyes made the air around them a little lighter.

Mina looked at the Padawans and the Avengers with an apologetic look on her face. "I'm sorry, young men." Bontry's voice was a little choked. "I had hoped that you would understand our ways... but..."

"Senator, you have nothing to apologize for," Barris interrupted her immediately with a firm voice. "What we just experienced is something we never imagined before."

"I can only imagine the reaction we're going to get from the Jedi and the Avengers once we tell them all this," Ahsoka said dejectedly, her mind feeling like it was in the middle of a storm.

Is Sidious mentioned by Ultron really the mastermind behind this war?

Can they believe what Ultron says?

On the surface, Ultron is their enemy.

She thought back to what the Avengers had said about how the AI ​​had tried to destroy their home, but now she was asked to…

"What do we do now?" Ahsoka asked softly.

Mina repeated it, and then said solemnly: "Now, it's time for all of you to leave. It's not wise to stay too long."

The others reacted with a gasp of “What?”

They looked at each other in confusion.

Bontry was slightly annoyed because the other party seemed to be planning to stay longer. Mina asked jokingly, "Are you planning to stay for a long time?"

Barris Offee was the first to react. She said hastily, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Bontry." She explained with some confusion, "It's a little strange to leave in such a hurry after what we witnessed."

"Lasakas may be in trouble because of this council incident." Bontelli has already sensed that this may happen, "It can even be foreseen that after hearing Ultron's announcement that many people in the Republic want to bomb this planet, entering and leaving here will become more difficult."

"They won't do that!" Although Ahsoka said this, she soon seemed a little powerless.

Padmé, like her fellow Padawan, is conflicted, and Padmé is quick to voice some of her concerns in support of her mentor.

"After witnessing Dooku confirm the truth, some senators may be convinced. Riot and chaos will soon brew in various systems, and the security situation will become extremely serious. If you continue to stay, you will face greater difficulties in returning to Republic space."

Spider-Man said sarcastically, "That sounds like a joke."

Barris emphasized: "We can't have any fluke mentality. We need to pack up immediately and take the first batch of transportation back to Mandalore."

Ahsoka responded immediately: "Then we'd better start taking action immediately."

At this point, Peter said loudly, attracting everyone’s attention: “Karen, are you there?”

Karen responded, "Yes, Peter?"

He then said, "You still have Mr. Stark's AI defense protocols, right?"

Karen responded, “Tap and I have been working hard to refine and enhance them.”

Spider-Man explained to the group, "Karen and Tap are our Avengers' personal AIs. We have experience dealing with threats like Ultron. So after what happened last year, if something like this happens again, we will be prepared. Mr. Stark knows the importance of preparing for the unexpected."

When facing Mrs. Bontelli and her son, Spider-Man's eyes became more resolute. He said solemnly: "I am taking various emergency measures, Mrs. Bontelli, to protect you in case Ultron takes any unexpected actions."

Such a move made the senator and her son blink, and Mina gradually showed a warm smile and gently praised: "You are such a considerate person." Her words revealed deep gratitude and respect.

This made the Queens native seem a bit stuttery and shy as he tried to decline the compliment. However, this shyness and stuttering drew some easy laughter, as if they were amused by the young hero's simplicity.

Padmé interrupted the relaxed atmosphere and announced decisively: "Well, let's not waste any more time. We'd better get back to Coruscant as soon as possible."
