Chapter 121 4. Captain! We are in big trouble-[310]

As soon as Mason crossed the world gate and returned to Gotham, the camouflaged campus hat on his head immediately sounded a warning.

"A suppressed and deeply hidden burning power is approaching. It is the gaze that focused here just now. Take action immediately, Mason! Hide the door to the world before that existence arrives."

"This is simple."

The young man took out the suitcase that he never left, opened it and threw the door to the world back into the bag, but then the hat on his head reminded:

"This is not enough! The aftermath of time travel is still there. If you can't erase it, you can only pretend it. Put your hand into my belly, Mason. I have something here that can help you."

"Your four-dimensional pocket is so convenient."

Mason took off his hat and whispered:

"Actually, I find it troublesome to carry a suitcase all the time. I suddenly had a bold idea. Do you think I can do it?"

"No!"

Before the young man could finish speaking, he was rejected by the cold hat.

The branch school hat twisted its "body", creating a blurry face on the hat and yelled:

"My storage magic is for emergencies, not for you to store messy things! Don't even think about putting your junk into my body.

Although I am down and out, I still have some dignity. ”

It strongly rejected Mason's bold idea, which made the young man curl his lips. Then Mason reached out from the hat and pulled out a golden broken pocket watch like magic.

Its delicate dial is inlaid with a small hourglass, just like a timepiece, but the hourglass itself is broken and has lost a lot of grit.

Mason recognized this thing at a glance:

Failed Time Converter

Quality: Epic Engineering/Inscription/Enchanting/Alchemical Item·Perfect Craftsmanship

Item effect: Turn the timer to turn back time, and each turn will go back one hour.

Item status: Due to the broken timer and serious loss of the Sand of Time, this item has expired. Re-repairing requires Engineering Level 6 and one ounce of Sand of Time.

Produced by: Dai Ying, Department of Criminal Investigation, Ministry of Magic

Item Description: Have you ever heard of the "Grandma Paradox"? Don't be afraid, that stuff is a lie, the nature of time is much more complicated than that.

"Why are the things in your stomach so junky?"

Mason complained:

"So besides assigning colleges to freshmen, do you also have a hobby of picking up trash?"

"Quiet! And my lord refuses to answer this unseemly question."

The Branch Hat scolded, and was about to teach Mason how to use this failed time turner to disguise the scene, but suddenly he made a confused snort.

It says:

"The force stopped, and someone stopped it, just three blocks away."

Mason lowered his head and glanced at the lapel pin on his collar. The Hell's Eye pendant was emitting a faint light. He stretched out his hand and heard Zha Kang's voice coming from it.

"Listen to me, Brad, that's my residence in this city, and I may have kept some dangerous things in it. I don't think you need to go and see it in person.

Man, don’t you still trust me, a friend I’ve known for many years? ”

Zha Kang seemed to be talking to someone, which made Mason raise his eyebrows.

There is no doubt that this is Zha Kang's deliberate prompting for him to cooperate quickly. Mason rolled his eyes and immediately took out his cell phone but did not call immediately. Instead, he waited for nearly half a minute before dialing Zha Kang's number.

At the same time, three blocks away, Zha Kang, who was wearing a wrinkled khaki trench coat and holding a cigarette in his mouth, was chatting with a tall, silent man. He took out his cell phone and glanced at the indifferent man opposite. Picked up the phone and turned on the sound.

"Master Constantine!"

Mason's horrified voice came from it, and he shouted:

"The magical items you left in the laboratory are vibrating. Come back and have a look!"

Zha Kang had no expression on his face, but he actually let out a sigh of relief.

She repeatedly lamented that Mason is really reliable, and leaving things to him always puts people at ease. He calmly blew out a smoke ring and said impatiently:

"That's enough! You stupid servant, it was a mistake for me to introduce you into my domain. Didn't I teach you how to deal with that thing?

Don't disturb me!

I am chatting with my distinguished good friend. ”

"You taught me."

Mason's voice became even more frightened, and he said:

"But this thing is glowing and buzzing. It was broken just now but I swear I never touched it intentionally out of curiosity. Anyway, you'd better come back and have a look."

Zha Kang frowned, glanced at the tall, indifferent man opposite him, turned off his phone and said to this guy:

"Come and take a look with me? Brad, if something happens to the thing I made a few days ago to monitor the space-time disturbances in the city, you will have to step in."

"You're always finding ways to get into trouble, John."

The man wearing a red suit, with his black hair combed meticulously, and with a strong body and his hands in his pockets said in a cold voice with no expression on his face:

"I hate everything about you, but if they view Gotham as my area of ​​responsibility then I have to make sure there is no threat.

lead the way!

John, let's go check out your place.

You'd better have nothing to do with this!

You also attended the meeting in the Mystery House, and you know how important and troublesome this matter is. ”

Having said this, the tall man paused, and a penetrating dark light flashed in his black and white eyes, and then said:

"But personally, I really hope that you will be involved. I really hope that I can catch you with my own hands and throw you into the dark dungeon of Nimue, and then listen to you screaming and wailing in it.

Only in this way can the debts you owe me be cancelled. ”

"Cut in your demonic aura, Brad, look at the evil flavor in this sentence."

While taking off his pipe to draw magic, Zha Kang rolled his eyes and said:

"You are in human form now! Do you think it's boring to be a human being and plan to return to your old profession? Stop making trouble, your hell territory has long been carved up by your enemies.

You are now an 'undesirable' in the Nine Hells just like me. ”

A green portal was opened, and Zha Kang popped a cigarette in his mouth and stepped into it, followed closely by the tall man behind him.

The two landed in the office on the top floor of the Iceberg Bar one after another.

As soon as Zha Kang came in, he exchanged glances with Mason. Mason nodded slightly to him, then pursed his lips to indicate the things on the table.

Constantine immediately felt at ease.

It seems that Mason has foreseen the approaching danger and prepared everything in advance. Well, having such a partner is really practical and reassuring.

"The atmosphere of space-time disorder is very weak but it does exist. My feeling is correct."

The tall man who followed Zha Kang into the office frowned and sniffed, then his captivating eyes looked at the "servant" Mason who was following Zha Kang with a low eyebrow.

Then, his eyes were attracted by what Zha Kang picked up from the table.

"Alas, I still haven't mastered my alchemy skills. Look at this thing. It's broken before it's officially used."

Constantine picked up the failed time turner and stroked it with a sad face, as if there was something wrong with something he carefully crafted.

He threw the thing in his hand to the man in front of him, who looked at it carefully.

This is obviously a magical person.

He touched the hidden inscription on the surface of the time turner with his fingers, then carefully distinguished the small hourglass that was obviously processed by alchemy, and finally stretched out his fingers to pour out the weak Sands of Time and put it in front of his eyes.

After a few minutes of this, the man shook his head and threw the time turner back to Zha Kang, saying:

"It should be the leakage of the Sands of Time that caused the time and space here to be slightly distorted. Well, John, you escaped again. But I warn you!

Don't carry out your dangerous activities in this city anymore!

At least not now.

I'll keep an eye on you. ”

After saying that, the tall man took another look at Mason, who kept his head down and maintained a servant posture. He strode towards the exit of the office and pushed the door open and walked out.

It was clear that the portal left by Zha Kang was still functioning, but he turned a blind eye to the more convenient thing.

"Shh!"

Constantine made a gesture to silence Mason. He waved his fingers and popped up a few light spots as if they were some kind of detection. It wasn't until several minutes later that he relaxed and whispered:

"The upper demon in Jason Blood can help him sense any information within at least five blocks. The consequences of being targeted by that bastard will be quite bad.

They are really good at picking people and actually persuaded this guy to help. Our future actions must be more subtle, Mason.

This place is no longer available. ”

"Jason Blood? The legendary 'Demon Knight'?"

Mason blinked and said:

"Isn't he usually active in California? Why did he suddenly come to Gotham?"

"He didn't come suddenly. In fact, he has been in Gotham for more than a year."

Zha Kang blew out a smoke ring and played with the broken time turner in his hand. He knew the goods and naturally put the thing into his arms, then folded his arms and explained to Mason:

"Brad has a very bad relationship with the demon in his body. They have been entangled for more than 1,500 years and have grown tired of each other. Every once in a while, in order to satisfy the murderous desire of the demon in his body, he has to find some villain or evil spirit to kill him. Kill.

Let me ask you, what better place to do this than Gotham?

Although there is no evidence, I am basically certain that there is cooperation between Brad and Batboy!

The demon in his body must have been happy that night when the Assassin's League attacked Gotham, otherwise the thing wouldn't be so quiet today. ”

"That demon is said to be called Etrigen?"

Mason asked.

As a result, Zha Kang glared hard and said:

"Don't say the devil's name here! Don't say the devil's name anywhere! You are causing trouble for yourself. Fortunately, it is just a transliteration.

Its real name is more complicated than that.

Listen up, Mason, this is what I'm going to tell you.

We're in trouble.

Big trouble! ”

Constantine sighed and said:

"Reputable magic users from all over the world, and even some unworthy ones, have been summoned to the Mystery House.

Dr. Fate, Black Adam and Madam Xanadu were all present, and even the new generation of super wizards like Zha were their assistants.

They spent most of the day announcing to us the news that the entire world was divided into thirteen areas, with different guys leading a group of people to supervise and detect all space-time disturbances.

Brad is one of the three scouts responsible for the east coast, the other two are Zach and Shazam.

Xiaozhao is easy to say.

I've been convinced.

Shazam doesn't have to worry either.

That guy has no brain.

The only troublesome one is Jason Blood, you have to watch out for him. The attack by the Society of Stars has obviously triggered a counterattack in this world. Until the end of this magical supervision, we have to keep our tail between our legs. ”

Mason frowned at the bad news that Zhan brought back, but then he realized a loophole.

He squinted at Zha Kang and said quietly:

"You were there for two days, and then you said the meeting only took most of the day? Why didn't you tell me the news after the meeting?

What do you do the rest of the time? ”

"Uh, didn't I say that?"

Constantine pouted and said:

"I helped us 'persuade' Xiao Zha.

Okay, I admit that I may have wasted some time, but the two of us coped well with this 'sudden attack', and the cooperation was perfect.

By the way, why does your hat feel weird?

Let me see! ”

The mean-spirited Zha Kang put his hand on the disguised branch hat before Mason could stop him.

The decent-tempered hat obviously didn't like others to touch it. The moment John's hand touched the hat, a gray-black lightning struck the black magician.

The latter screamed and fell to the ground thrashing.

"What a Cruciatus Curse!"

Mason sighed in admiration, ignoring Zha Kang's pain and bent down to take the time turner back from his arms and put it into his pocket.

He put the camouflage hat on his head, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the office and looked at the city in front of him at dusk.

He whispered:

"You may not know the characters represented by the names Zha Kang mentioned. I can only tell you that they are the top group of spellcasters in the world.

Do you have what it takes to help us continue to use the World Gate right under their noses?

I know this is a very troublesome job, but if you want me to help you hunt down those traitors"

"Mason, young man, your understanding of magic is too shallow."

The old and slow voice of the branch hat sounded in the young man's mind, it said:

"Power is power, knowledge is knowledge!

These are two completely unrelated fields. Even though I have lost most of my power, the valuable knowledge is still enough to help you hide in this crisis.

Without further ado.

Let's get started now. ”

After its voice fell, a large piece of obscure information appeared in Mason's mind. The character card in front of him flashed for a few times, and then a prompt popped up:

"The intervention of external forces is detected and identified as high-level enchantment/inscription knowledge transfer new drawing X25 to unlock."

"This knowledge is a bit complicated and I have a hard time understanding it."

Mason looked at the enchantment and inscription formulas in front of him, he frowned and said:

“It’s a bit difficult for me to do it on my own.”

"I will teach you step by step."

Branch hat reminder:

"And don't you have an assistant?

The prodigal son was a very talented soul. If he had been born in Hogwarts, it would have been impossible for him to enter Hogwarts with his character.

Woohoo, that's a dirty soul who was born to belong to Azkaban!

But he can really help. ”

——

In Wayne Manor, a suburb of Gotham, a special guest visited at dusk.

"Mr. Brad, you are really a rare visitor."

The old butler Alfred personally received this cold-faced guest. He was currently preparing tonight's tranquilizing medicine for Master Damian in the manor according to Mason's instructions.

The whole process made the visiting Demon Knight raise his eyebrows.

After watching Ah Fu's skillful mixing of the potion in silence, he asked:

"Where do these medicines come from? Ordinary people have no access to this mysterious knowledge. Just by smelling it, I can confirm that these medicines come from a very ancient inheritance."

"A friend of ours made it for Master Damian."

Ah Fu seemed to trust the man in front of him.

He picked up the pink mixed potion and said politely:

"It's very useful. The young master's mania and darkness have faded too much. Mr. Wayne is dining with a lady. You may need to wait a moment, Mr. Brad."

"It doesn't matter, I've always been patient."

Brad looked at the potion in Afu's hand and responded expressionlessly:

"And I'm more interested in the origin of these potions now. When did there be an alchemist in the city? Can you introduce him to me?

Alfred Pennyworth."

The man paused and said softly:

"For the sake of the friendship between your ancestors and me." (End of Chapter)
