Chapter 296 94. Batman Biography·The Revenge Knight Returns
The action of shifting the world lasted for a full 32 hours, and Mason almost watched Barry Allen running in the time maze for 32 hours. To be honest, this process was quite boring.
He witnessed with his own eyes that Xiao Shen went from exhausted to panting, then from panting to clenching his teeth, and finally from clenching his teeth to using his hands and feet.
This guy has truly reached his limit. He is running in a daze, his steps are shaky, and his eyes are dull. If he continues like this, his life will be extracted and used to maintain the Speed Force matrix like Barry Allen in this world. energy for operation.
But it's not all bad.
During these 32 hellish hours, Mason, an outsider, could clearly feel that the connection between the little flash in front of him and the Speed Force had gone from "proficient" to "perfect".
He must ensure that every ounce of the speed he generates when running can be properly used and not wasted. Under such extreme pressure, he has indeed made rapid progress.
Of course, it was impossible for Mason to spend the entire thirty-two hours in vain. While Barry was running, Mason was also seizing the time to practice his tailoring and enchanting skills.
Finally, before the last moment came, he improved his tailoring skills from Lv1+1 to Lv3+1 through the production of nearly two hundred basic magic bags. Although it was still terrible, at least he could sew up the severely damaged Sorting Hat. To a barely satisfactory level.
"Mason, the last city people have just passed through the transfer gate."
Zha Kang's voice sounded from the Hell's Eye pin on Mason's collar, and he reported:
"Our colleagues are preparing to evacuate. The big man Morgan asked me to tell you to call it a day and look forward to seeing us again next time. Oh, and the charming old aunt who still has a bar in her name said she wanted to Send someone to help you run it.
Tsk tsk, the charm of this hot old aunt is really not comparable to those young girls.
I was almost moved. ”
"You'd better hold back and offend Aunt Rogge, or she'll shoot your little brother to pieces."
Mason sat cross-legged on the floor of the time maze, threading the black magical thread through the Sorting Hat in his hand under the guidance of a sharp enchanted sewing needle. He sewed carefully and said:
"You guys should retreat and wait for me at Osborne Tower. I'll be there soon."
"Received."
Zha Kang let out a nasty laugh and said:
"Be careful yourself and call if you encounter trouble. The door to the world is always open here."
"This stitch is crooked! I told you that you can't work on the phone at the same time. Look at how badly you sewed me. It really makes me lose my face to go out and face the ruthless world."
A vague human face protruded from the Sorting Hat's appearance, and it complained harshly to Mason:
"You are no longer a novice! Therefore, such a stupid mistake does not deserve to be forgiven generously. Do what you should do!"
"I understand, I understand, just take it apart and sew it up again, okay?"
Mason rolled his eyes, and quickly took apart all the crooked stitches. While threading the needle and threading with deft hands and feet, he looked up at the top of his head, which was as tired as a dead dog. He stuck out his tongue and panted, rolled his eyes, and used his hands and feet together to take strange measures like a strange walking species. Xiaofeng who has a strange way of running said:
"Hey, Barry, start slowing down, everyone has finished transporting, and our work should be over."
"I think I can still hold on for a while."
Xiao Shen originally wanted to say something for the occasion, but before he could finish speaking, he staggered and almost fell into the ground.
I didn't dare to talk big now, I could only start to slow down the entire Speed Force Matrix honestly.
Mason actually originally wanted to keep some samples of the Speed Force Matrix.
But later it was discovered that this thing was completely bound to this dead world. Once the timeline stopped, the world would immediately collapse, and the twisted and weird Speed Force network would also dissipate, so we had no choice but to give up.
But just when Mason was about to sew the sorting hat, Flash suddenly said:
"Mason, I can collect some free Speed Force and make them into 'Speed Force Bricks'. This is the knowledge left by the Flash in this world. Part of the core of this matrix is made of Speed Force Bricks.
I'm going to take most of it back for research, but I can give you some to use as reserve energy, so that you don't have to "charge" your Speed Force ring every time. ”
"This feeling is so good!"
Joy appeared on Mason's face, but in his excitement, another stitch got crooked, causing him to be scolded by the Sorting Hat. Fortunately, this picky hat was not an ignorant "grandpa".
It could understand that Mason was already very tired, so he generously said that there was no need to sew again this time, and also expressed its initial approval of Mason's craftsmanship in a roundabout way.
In particular, Mason ingeniously sewed a circle of special fabric from Paradise Island as a decoration onto its hat to embellished it with a small bat pattern, making the Sorting Hat feel many years "younger" all of a sudden.
"Alas, we still can't achieve perfect restoration, and there is still a long way to go."
Mason stood up and put the sorting hat on his head, which had become much more beautiful after being re-sewed. The hat changed its shape back to a Panama hat with a satisfied groan.
It tried to collect some stray magic power and said to Mason:
"It's okay this time, because the improvement in my craftsmanship and skills has accelerated the speed and quality of the magic I can absorb. Now I can release some high-level magic, but I still can't use the forbidden magic of the great wizard level."
< br>
“Let’s try one.”
Mason pushed up his hat and said something. The next moment, a circle of blue light flashed over his forehead. Mason immediately felt as if there was a layer of invisible armor covering his soul.
"Occlumency."
The old hat god said:
"With this thing, you don't have to worry about your thoughts being sensed by mind readers. As long as the magic power is sufficient, I can always maintain this magic effect.
Do you need me to arrange another protective fire spell for you? You can burn everyone who approaches you with malicious intent! ”
"This will not be used for the time being. Good things should be reserved for critical moments."
Mason touched his forehead and nodded with satisfaction.
Then a loud noise sounded behind him, and the Speed Force matrix that had been running for seventeen years was slowly stopping.
This "disposable" doomsday self-rescue device has completed its mission, and countless dazzling yellow flashes are flying wantonly in this sealed area.
Barry Allen, who was embarrassed in the flash of light, was thrown out by a huge force, rolled several times and landed at Mason's feet before being pulled up by him.
He had really been holding on before, but now Mason could feel the young man's weakness as he held his hand. This was not just the extent of his body being hollowed out.
In the words of traditional Chinese medicine, this is called "when the oil is exhausted, the lamp dries up" or "when the essence is exhausted, the person dies", it depends on which description you prefer.
"Drink!"
Mason took out a tube of epic healing potion and threw it to Barry, then took out the materials and put his hands together to start the formation. In a flash of red light, he produced a bottle of vitality supplement on the spot and drank it down to Barry who was sweating in cold sweat before barely holding on. This guy won't get weak and faint.
At the same time that the Speed Force matrix stopped, the time maze used to hide the core of the matrix also began to collapse rapidly. Mason supported Barry as if he was escaping from the temple, avoiding several collapsing time vortexes and escaping in embarrassment. the real world.
Their destination is Paradise Island.
But the place was already deserted. After hundreds of thousands of Amazons moved quickly, Zha Kang took Kite, Catwoman and Thalia to ruthlessly scrape the land here for three days, removing all valuable things here. Take it all.
Therefore, the scenery of Paradise Island is terrible at this time.
The originally magnificent temple was blasted, and the huge stone statues were swaying on the island, but this had little to do with the plundering behavior of the K team. It was purely because the speed force matrix stopped and the entire world was being quickly thrown away from the closed timeline. The result of entering the normal timeline.
This world died 17 years ago.
Once it returns to the normal timeline, it will immediately enter a state of star core destruction and is completely irreversible.
In short, the final end of a world is imminent, and Mason and the group of people waiting for him on Paradise Island will be the last witnesses to the last days of this world.
"Why are you here?"
Mason handed the weak Barry Allen to the energetic Harley and asked her to help take care of him. Then he raised his head and looked at Hal Jordan standing next to the old man.
He said in surprise:
"You're just an ordinary person, Hal. You should go to Garden World with your girlfriend to enjoy yourself."
"This unfortunate guy's girlfriend is having an affair with his best friend. The green hat on his head looks like he was born to be a Green Lantern."
Damian Wayne, the crooked little lunatic beside the old man, folded his arms and sneered:
"You have a really good eye for picking people, Mason, you can always pick these weird players."
"Yeah, I've recruited this little lunatic like you into my team, who else can't stand it?"
Mason rolled his eyes and retorted, causing Damian to clench his fists, but he glanced at the silent old man beside him and finally chose to endure the tone.
Of course, the old man's attitude is only one side.
At this moment, Mrs. Martha, who had put on a normal style skirt and a lady's hat, was also looking at him faintly not far away.
Mrs. Martha feels that some of her grandson's behaviors are not in line with her etiquette requirements, so she is planning to "personally" educate her grandson in the next period of time.
Beside her were the two-faced lady who covered her face with her hair, her two children, and the Oswald housekeeper who was dragging his suitcase and getting ready for a long journey.
He wants to follow his old master to the new world.
A loyal steward and lieutenant, he never thought of leaving alone.
Hal Jordan, who was wearing a bomber jacket and carrying a shoulder bag, looked regretfully at the doomsday scene unfolding in front of him. The dusk-like flaming clouds had spread across the sky, but it was not just a beautiful afterglow, but also a certain event caused by changes in the earth's crust. A bad sign.
He could even feel the world beneath his feet disintegrating.
This process is not gentle at all, it is frightening and full of sadness.
"Who else should we wait for?"
The young man touched the green ring hanging around his neck and asked Mason.
The captain of Team K gestured to him to calm down, then took out the suitcase and activated the traceless extension spell, and threw the two biological capsules out of it.
The next moment, the two biological cabins were broken at the same time. A tall blonde jumped out of them angrily, and next to her was a tall man who had lost his left hand.
Diana Prince, Queen of War, and Arthur Curry, King of the Seven Seas.
Mason didn't kill them, but the condition of the two men in front of them was indeed worse than when they were in their prime.
Diana, who had one-third of the divine clay doll's body swallowed by Kevin, has "regressed" to an 18-year-old state, not to mention Arthur Curry, who had his hand chopped off.
They rushed out of the restraints and roared towards Mason. However, the next moment, cold guns were aimed at them, and Sister Selena, who was hiding in a high place after taking pictures, fell from the sky like a hunting beast, finishing the venom in the air. Possessed, when he landed, he opened his claws to protect Mason.
The little madman Damian sneered and drew out the Demon's Head Saber. Harley chewed gum and grabbed the golden baseball bat. The two dogs at her feet kept barking.
Everyone started to move, but Mrs. Martha was still looking at the boiling sea in the distance.
She has no interest in any of this nonsense.
She held a makeup mirror and eyebrow pencil in her hand, planning to put on makeup for herself. After all, she would soon see her son, who had been away for nearly thirty years, and she had to dress up for the occasion.
"I advise you two to calm down."
Mason didn't draw his gun.
As the wind of doomsday blew, he sat on the stone next to him and let the wind blow his gray windbreaker. He held the penguin umbrella in his hand and looked at Diana and Arthur who were gnashing their teeth in front of him in a bossy manner. Says:
"You have lost, and you must accept the fate of the loser! Your country no longer exists, and your people are now living in my territory.
I think they might be better off without you.
But I will not stop you from going back and continuing to lead your people to survive in a new world.
However, this does not come without a cost. ”
Mason paused and glanced at Barry. Barry Allen, who had recovered a little, stood up, took a deep breath and ran forward to open the Speed Force channel, tearing a channel along the path and direction he came from. A rift to another world.
Just like a mirror, the light floating on it can also reflect a hazy but brightly lit city.
The old man and Lady Martha held their breath at the same time when they saw it.
They know where it is.
"You can come with us and have a chance to win again in the new world."
Mason pointed to the crack and said to the blackened versions of Diana and Arthur:
"You can also stay here and go to destruction with your world. I am really tired now and I urgently need to rest, so I don't have much time left for you to think."
"You want a queen to be your dog? You want a warrior to kneel down and surrender in humiliation? Do you want a god to give up all his dignity?"
18-year-old Diana Prince clenched her fists and shouted:
"No! Never! I would rather die here!"
"It's not that it can't be discussed."
King of the Seven Seas Arthur's reaction was not so violent.
He stroked the wound on his broken arm and looked back at the boiling ocean behind him.
He knows that staying here is definitely a dead end, and as a pragmatist, it is not that he cannot accept the humiliation of survival, not to mention that his people are still waiting for him in another world.
"I don't have that much time to convince you."
Mason stood up and said:
"Your future leader is not me! So you don't have to be loyal to me. Talk to him!"
He pointed at the gloomy old man and said:
"Thomas Wayne, he will be your commander and superior."
After saying that, Mason stretched out his hand to Harley. This action made Harley feel happy for a moment.
She rushed up and hugged Mason's wrist, happily followed Mr. K with her dog into the door to the world that opened next to him, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Damian, Selina, and Thalia followed closely behind. Hal Jordan glanced at the three people who were still confronting each other, then turned and walked into the Speed Force rift behind him.
He knew Mason went places he couldn't go.
At least not now.
The last to rise was Lady Martha.
Having finished putting on makeup, she pushed down her black lady's hat. The moment she approached the crack with her two-faced adjutant, she said to the old man:
"Thomas, hurry up! He is waiting for us! Is there anything more important in the world than attending today's appointment?"
"You go first, I will come later."
The old man did not look back, but he promised:
"It won't take more than five minutes!"
"Your broken promise last time cost us him."
Mrs. Martha said hoarsely:
"I don't want to go through this again."
"Boom"
These words stimulated the old man. He activated the key, and a huge black power armor suddenly appeared behind him. As he raised his arm, the enhanced prototype of the Fenrir armor given by Mason also looked like a shadow imitation. Lift your left arm.
Above the terrifying muzzle, the sparks of the energy guide are ready to go.
Thomas stared at the two people in front of him as the black sawtooth cloak swayed. The revenge knight said dumbly:
"Did you hear that? I don't have much time as I have an appointment soon, so do you want to obey on your own? Or should I teach you to obey?" (End of Chapter)
