Chapter 226 24. The name of the plan is "Fuck the Justice League"!
When Mason crossed the World Gate and arrived at Osborne Tower with exhaustion, the members of Team K were already gloomily waiting for him in the large office that originally belonged to the Sandman.
Everyone is there.
Including Poison Ivy who just joined the team and non-staff member Collypso.
They had all heard about the terrible situation when Kite Man fell into the hands of the Justice League, and all understood the terrible risks of such a thing happening at this time.
However, when Mason walked into the office, Catwoman, who was still a little sick, still stood up and forced a smile on her face and said to Mason:
"Happy birthday, little one."
"Huh?"
Zha Kang, who was smoking silently, raised his head, looked at the expressionless young man in surprise, and said:
"Today is your birthday? Why didn't you tell me earlier? So that I could order a cake on the way here to express my false blessings, and also to add some joyful atmosphere to this terrible situation."
"Please, John."
Mason glared at him and said:
"It's my greatest blessing that you can shut up today. Okay, I know what everyone is thinking, don't waste time, let's get down to business."
He stood in the center of the office, looked around, and said:
"We must save Charles, this is the tone! And it is not just out of my personal commitment and desire to protect the team members, it is also a very real necessity.
I just got off the phone with Batman.
He asked me to hold my hands and promise that the Justice League could protect our safety, but everyone has soul curses on their hands so we know their protection is meaningless.
But I also knew from him that Charles was not injured or tortured. Those guys were still busy cleaning up the debris of the world in space, and his interrogation would begin in a few days. ”
"It's useless."
Zha Kang shook his head sadly and said:
"Wonder Woman's truth lasso is in Charles's hands, and his half-full willpower will reveal all our details in a few minutes.
Even by the loosest standards of curse triggering, Kite Man is dead.
The Justice League's caster allies couldn't handle a curse of this magnitude, so once they began interrogating, it was only a matter of time before Charles died.
The worst thing is that I can't confirm yet whether it will affect us if he tells us about Team K.
Mason, you also know that last time we took a risk and almost made me trigger that thing. It is not a rigid oath constraint. In terms of the trigger conditions in that field, it appears to be very 'smart'. ”
"So we have to be quick!"
Mason crossed his arms, squinted his eyes and said coldly:
"John, Selina, you two and I are going to Wayne Manor in a minute. We have to find the information and data of the watchtower in the Batcave so we can figure out how to act quickly after going there."
"You're crazy!"
This time the person who retorted was not the grumbling Zha Kang, but Barbara who was resting on the sofa. The bat girl with a towel on her forehead raised her head and said:
"Mason, I know you are in a hurry, but calm down. The observation tower is in Earth orbit! Maybe we can get in, but as long as the security alarm is triggered, we won't be able to get out."
"That's right, Mason, we all know you're in a hurry, but don't worry yet."
Ergong, who was naked and covered with bandages, tried very hard to stand up from the wheelchair, but he tried several times and failed. He could only hold on to the Alice Saber and said weakly:
"The League of Assassins has many plans to attack the Justice League, but even crazy people like Lei Xiaogu have never thought of invading the watchtower. There is basically no return.
Not to mention that there are at least two official members of the Justice League stationed there at any time, and their high-level data encryption alone is not something that ordinary people can solve.
It was a 'fortress' built by Cyborg himself as the data center, and it was theoretically impossible to break through. ”
"You also said it's theoretical, but it's definitely different in practice."
While others watched in surprise, Mason took out a cigarette from Zha Kang's cigarette case and held it in his mouth. He flicked his finger to light it and said in a mute voice when the smoke flew:
"The Ultra program that Barbara used can kill Arnim Zola, and it is just a copied subroutine thread. This means that if we can get the complete Ultra copy program, the safety of the watchtower Networks can also be brute-forced.
As for how to get out after entering
Hey, why should we come out? ”
In the astonished gaze of the team members, Mason flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said:
"Did you forget something? When the Six-Headed Snake Team was defeated by Superboy alone, their world gate fell into the hands of the Justice League.
And that thing was isolated and stored in the watchtower along with all other outsiders' belongings.
There is a high probability that the Justice League has not cracked the characteristics of that door. Now the reorganized 'Six-Headed Snake' is under the control of the old Green Goblin. As long as the door is not destroyed, it is our 'safe passage'. My friends, you don't really think I'm desperate to come up with a suicidal plan, do you?
The fact now is that rescuing Charles from the Justice League is not as difficult as you think. As long as we can enter the watchtower, more than half of the problem will be solved.
When the time comes, take Charles and evacuate from the World Gate, and it will only take a few seconds to return to Osborne Tower.
If you act quickly enough, they won't even be able to react. ”
There was silence in the entire office. Captain Jack had already opened the bottle of wine and was preparing to celebrate, but the keen Catwoman and Zha Kang looked at each other. The eldest sister pursed her lips and said:
"'We'? You mean, you're not participating in the action? What are you going to do? Mason! Say it clearly!"
"Someone must stay on the surface to attract the attention of the Justice League and the group of spellcasters. Only in this way can we create an opportunity for you to sneak into the watchtower."
Mason blew out a smoke ring, grabbed his penguin umbrella and played with it in his hands.
He looked around and said:
"Who else can take on this important task besides me? I am the captain, and I should shoulder the most difficult part of this plan. The battle with the Conqueror under the doomsday also made me have some doubts about my armor. Have some confidence.
I can hold them off. ”
"You are really crazy!"
Zha Kang stamped out the cigarette butt.
He was relieved that Mason didn't throw him, the theoretical strongest member of Team K, out of the tank at this time, but he also felt that Mason's move was a bit exaggerated.
He said:
"Your suit was torn apart by that Bizarro! And I think that fake bastard is no match for Superman. Superman can defeat you by himself! Not to mention that duplicitous bastard Batboy."
< br>
"匌"
Mason twisted the umbrella handle.
A green kryptonite spear tip popped out from the top of the penguin umbrella, illuminating Mason's cheek.
He stroked this unique little thing, looked at the stunned Zha Kang, and said in a quiet voice:
"You just said who can defeat me alone?"
"Fuck!"
When he saw the kryptonite war spear, Constantine understood instantly. He gritted his teeth and said:
"You've been preparing to fall out with those guys, right? But don't forget, in addition to the Justice League, you also have to face the casters.
There is a high probability that Dr. Fate will appear in person.
A spellcaster of that level doesn't even need to come into contact with you to bind you, and you are obviously lacking in magical power right now. ”
"Am I stupid? I will stay in Gotham and fight them to the end?"
Mason sneered and shook his head and said:
"How long I have to stay on the ground depends entirely on how fast you move in the watchtower. If you are fast enough, I can escape faster. So the key to this operation is not how powerful I am, understand? John.
The key lies with you! ”
He took off the burned cigarette butt and put it out in the water glass behind him.
He looked at Zha Kang, put his hand on his shoulder, and said:
"You lead the team this time, John. I won't interfere with your command. It's up to you to do whatever you want. Whether I can meet you alive depends on your ability.
Of course, if I unfortunately die, you will take over as the captain of Team K.
It's up to you to decide how to proceed from now on.
But the advice I want to give you is, don’t trust the Society of Stars, and don’t trust Mr. Hunter’s group too much. The hunter himself may be trustworthy, but those guys behind him are a bunch of bugs. ”
"You can't go alone, Mason."
Catwoman stood up suddenly, walked to Mason, and said in a tone that left no room for doubt:
"I'll stay here with you. My conversation with Venom is almost finished. I have an agreement with it. My current physical fitness should be enough to withstand the symbiote's parasitism.
I can't leave you here alone!
Nor can I allow you to have a life-and-death battle with the man I love most in his city. ”
"Not yet!"
Mason shook his head and refused:
"You are not allowed to use venom now until I finish researching and improving it. I just got a new idea that will allow you to gain more power while effectively curbing the parasitic transformation of the symbiote on you.
That is a 'safety valve'.
You have to go to the watchtower with John, and you have to work separately to ensure maximum efficiency.
Everyone else also has their own tasks, including Barbara and Ergong. I know you are very tired now, but listen to me, you must also participate in this matter. ”
"Stop it, Mason, we understand."
Barbara took off the towel from her head and said sickly:
"If you can do this for Charles, it means that if we face the same dilemma in the future, we can also count on your magic to come from heaven.
This is not a bad thing, and your plan has been perfected to this point.
We have no reason to refuse anymore. ”
"Now, the three of us may not be able to help, but as long as you need it, we will do our best to help!"
Captain Jack patted his chest and promised, and behind him, Angelina, who was holding a small bottle containing Queen Anne's Revenge, also nodded seriously.
Mrs. Elizabeth, whose eyes were red and had obviously cried, sniffed and said in a hoarse voice:
"We owe you a favor that we can never repay, Mason, and we will obey wherever your flag leads!"
"Very good!"
Mason nodded and finally looked at Poison Ivy. Ivy glanced at him and said:
"Charles could have abandoned me and fled back, but he left me the hope of living. When he pushed me into the gate of the world and chose to stay to resist Superman, whom he could not defeat, he said, I am very grateful to the K-Team is worth more than him.
I owe him a lot, and I don't like owing favors.
I'll help. ”
"Then rest, we will take action the night after tomorrow!"
Mason looked at his watch and said decisively:
"John, Selina and I went to Wayne Manor to 'deliver' the goods. The Conqueror is too hot. Maybe we can dump him as a problem to the Justice League."
After saying that, Mason turned and walked out of the office. When he opened the door, he saw Spider-Man and Daredevil sitting on chairs in front of the aisle waiting for him.
Before Mason could speak, Old Peter drank up the coffee in his hand and said:
"You can't refuse our help this time, right? Mason, it sounds like you're going to fight a very dangerous guy to save your friends."
"Charles Brown helped this city, he helped us, and he meant more to the world than 'friend' can ever contain."
Lawyer Ma, wearing coquettish red sunglasses, leaned on his blind cane and said in a humorous tone:
"Now he is in trouble and may need a lawyer. Can I recommend myself?"
"I really can't say no."
Mason shrugged and said:
"Okay, I do need two outsiders who have nothing to do with Team K to help me finish the job. Don't worry, you two, I promise you that no one will die in this operation, and your no-kill principle will not be violated. .
But you probably have to spend some time in my world.
Once you have passed the World Gate, you cannot use it to return, otherwise you will also be marked with a soul curse.
But if everything goes well, then the 'friends' over there will probably be able to think of a way to send you back soon. After all, there is a speedster among them who can travel through various worlds with just his feet without relying on the World Gate.
So, relax and think of this as an otherworldly sightseeing trip. ”
"Cool!"
The old spider shook his fingers in a good mood, brushed his messy hair and said:
"I was just about to meet the Batman you always admired so much. My little daughter heard stories about him from somewhere.
She had always wanted a signed painting of Batman and I couldn't let my little one down. ”
——
While Mason was busy organizing the operation to rescue the Kite Man, in the prison cell of the watchtower, Charles, who had been captured, was sitting cross-legged in the dark room with a face full of regret.
He was given a lesson by Superman for his violent "arrest". Not only was his cool vulture wings torn into pieces, but his nose was bruised, his face was swollen, and his whole body was in pain.
Kite Man was actually very upset at how he suddenly felt so passionate about playing the role of "hero saving beauty" at that moment. Poison Ivy was so powerful that she didn't need to save herself.
All right.
He admitted that he did have a slight admiration for the green-skinned little sister villain, but that shouldn't be the reason for his poor choice.
"I must be crazy."
In the darkness, Charles slapped his face and said:
"Perhaps I was infected by the boss. I always feel that I am doing the right thing. He is obviously a third-tier villain, but he has a strange sense of mission without fear when facing Superman.
What the hell.
Oh, don't come to save me!
Those bastards are ready to lure the enemy deeper. ”
He stayed like this feeling sorry for himself for more than ten minutes, and then he was about to change his head and get up to get some sleep. As a result, he turned around and saw the cold and sculpture-like master standing outside the cell in the dark, maintaining his coolest and most indifferent look. staring at him.
This caused Kite Man to immediately break out of the "Bat-PTSD" common among Gotham villains, and he suddenly had a panic attack and fell to the ground.
"You! Don't come over!"
He screamed.
The master looked at the guy in front of him who was frightened by him, and he said hoarsely:
"They will be with you soon. Your secrets, your goals, your methods, everything will be revealed until all the truth is exposed to the sun."
"Don't even think about it!"
The kite man shouted:
"I won't say anything! I will never betray the boss!"
"Haha"
The master chuckled hoarsely and slowly retreated into the darkness. This action alone was enough to bring back some of the most fearful memories hidden deep in the Kite Man's heart.
The master's voice came faintly in the darkness, saying:
"You'd better be like this." (End of Chapter)
