Chapter 356 55. Do you think this is the end? Innocent!
"Isn't Zha Kang back yet?"
This was the first thing Mason said after returning to Osborne Tower with some fatigue. Barbara, who ran to greet him, shook her head, and Bat Girl sighed and said:
"I just found a leave request note in his room. I sent a private message but no one responded. He must be exploring some world with his vampire lover."
"Has it been five days?"
The captain frowned and said:
"A standard exploration cycle has ended. He must at least send a letter back. Well, considering that it is Constantine, no matter what happens, it is normal.
Is the second barrel back? ”
"He and Damian are still in Europe. There is something wrong with the old man's plan to take over the League of Assassins, but it is still under control."
Barbara reports to:
"In addition, Firestorm has just successfully synthesized the unstable Terrigen Crystal in Dr. Otto's laboratory, and now they are all there to participate in the awakening ceremony of the first batch of Inhumans after the Doomsday Era.
Black Bolt specially invited us there, and he wants you to be there too. ”
"I'll be there later."
Mason glanced at his personal communicator and said:
"You go first, I won't be late."
"Well, okay."
Barbara nodded, put on a falcon-style jetpack and jumped from the top of Osborne Tower, then glided all the way towards the far coast of this seaside city.
On the wasteland at the end of the line of sight, the phantom cast by the city of Attilan is vividly visible. There are also some very curious Amazon female warriors riding Pegasus in circles around the flying city, trying to enter the "city of sky" that suddenly appeared. "City".
These superstitious muscle sisters regard its appearance as a good omen.
It is said that without the command and leadership of the War Queen, these muscular women have let themselves go a little bit.
I heard that they held a "Zombie Slayer Dominance Competition" in the abandoned city of New York a few days ago, and were invited and hired by Lady Elizabeth to help the remnants of the pirate world develop a living area.
This seems like a good thing.
"But the old Green Goblin will definitely complain now."
Mason pushed his brain, shook his head and said:
"He was already dissatisfied with me for constantly introducing all kinds of superhuman beings into the world. Now that a city cooler than Osborne Tower has arrived, the old guy is probably going to explode."
"No, Mason, the Green Goblin is just unhappy because his dominance over this world has declined. As long as you give him reassurance, that guy will be eager for you to expand more power for him."
The old hat god said:
"He is essentially a schemer, and the more cards he has, the happier he is."
"Yeah, who would have thought that the alliance between me and this guy would be the most stable among all the external relations forces at present?"
Mason walked to his office and complained again:
"He never looks for trouble for me, provides me with various experimental equipment for free, shelters us exiles, and even gives me some very dark advice.
He was pretty much the best collaborator except that he wanted something very different from what I wanted.
Especially when it comes to confronting Lao A, the two of us are naturally good partners. ”
"The guests have arrived."
Hat reminder to:
"He's waiting for you in the office. He seems to be the cyberpsycho who punched you before. That's how the word is used, right? It's such a magical way of choosing words and sentences."
"V is not crazy, he is just too active. Although he is occasionally impulsive, he can't hide his innocent heart."
Mason corrected the hat, then opened the door, and saw V sitting in his chair with his feet on the desk and secretly looking through Mason's various collections.
He was holding a magic bottle in his hand, and seemed to be very interested in the armored zombie "figure" sealed inside.
"You'd better not drop it."
Mason reminds:
"Otherwise you have to find a way to recapture it."
"Are everything in here alive?"
V raised the magic bottle in his hand and asked curiously:
"This zombie, that ship, and that sleeping giant in the bottle? Why do you like to shrink them and put them in bottles? Is this some kind of weird hobby?"
"You can understand it as a collection."
Mason slowly took the magic bottle containing the Zombie King Kingpin from V's hand and put it back on his bottle-filled collection shelf. He also placed a magic bottle containing the "Fire Cloud Evil God" version of Banner's father on the highest shelf. at.
Banner's father in the bottle pointed his middle finger at Mason fiercely, but he didn't react more violently and just lay down on the spot and dozed off.
Mason turned back to V and said:
"Just like you like collecting weapons and vehicles, who doesn't have a little hobby in this line of work? Have you brought the things?"
"Of course, that's why I'm here."
When it came to business, the cyber mercenary immediately became energetic. He stood up and took out a technological biological jar from his arms and placed it in front of Mason.
What is stored in that jar is the "Left Hand of Creation" that was previously spotted by Mason in the secret treasure house of the Society of Stars.
The red skin is covered with scales. If you look carefully at the alien shape of this hand, which has some claws, you will feel a bit ferocious after looking at it for a long time, especially when it was taken by Cyberpsycho V, who is known to kill without batting an eye.
It's like an evil underground organ trade scene, and Mason is the collector who does all kinds of evil.
"I thought I had to wait a few days."
Mason stroked the biological jar in front of him and joked:
"It seems that your promotion to A-level went very smoothly. When will we set up a table to celebrate?"
"Don't mention it anymore, it's so annoying."
V waved his hand with a tired look on his face and said:
"Morgan's promotion went smoothly, but we were not promoted according to the process. Without the opportunity to compete with A-level personnel, we will naturally not be able to obtain the other party's base world and resources.
You still have to find a way to build a local A-level world.
Rogge has been busy with this matter recently, and the mercenaries in the gods are crazy about it, but the hunter is still generous and gave us an A-level world she found before as a target.
This time I came here not only to deliver things, but also to place an order. ”
He took out a separation chip from the memory on his waist, handed it to Mason, and said:
"Here are all the advanced weapon materials from Kontao Industries and Arasaka Heavy Industries. Rogge said that you are skilled in craftsmanship. It is too late for us to restart the production line now.
So I leave the weapons here to you.
One month of preparation time, and we need a 3,000-man army, as well as a few of your magical alchemy pills and black technology heavy troops.
If there is a magic sword, that's fine. We can buy it at a high price.
Just ask for any materials you need, but since we are all allies, you always have to get a discount on the price. ”
Speaking of this, V winked and said:
"I just saw that handsome red-haired bat girl driving a cool power armor down there. Is that thing for sale? Get us a few.
That's much more powerful than Arasaka Heavy Industries' cannon fodder bipedal power armor. ”
"Fenrir Armor?"
Mason said in surprise:
"It's not that I won't give it to you, it's that you can't play with it. It requires a full-time mechanic to operate it. Don't even think about it for a line-filling guy like you, but I can get one for your girlfriend.
< br>
She can drive the Demon Lizard, and after training, she will be able to drive it naturally.
But I have better ones here. ”
The captain smiled, patted V on the shoulder and said:
"K Team's personal power armor has just been tested in actual combat in a world of destruction. It lasted for almost seven minutes in front of the angry Hulk before it was completely dismantled.
I recommend this one more.
It's a pure fool-like operation, as long as you have the brains you can use it and it has decent firepower, and you can freely match combat modules according to your personal needs. If you order more than fifty units at a time, I will give you a set of anti-force superhuman tactical data modules and a gravity well for free. ”
"Sounds great."
V blinked, and this rough-and-tumble mercenary whispered:
"Then what do we pay for?"
"We are all allies, so don't say anything like this to outsiders. What money are you talking about? Is it vulgar or vulgar?"
Mason waved his hands and said:
“Just pay a processing fee.
I'll make a list of materials for you in a minute. The sooner I send them in, the sooner we can start work. I happened to recruit two excellent alchemists a few days ago and they haven't started yet.
However, give me more permission to download the data personality of Shenyi Space, I will use it. ”
He stated his conditions, and V said with an embarrassed look:
"It's not that we won't give it. The supply of troops is tight now. Mason, as I just said, we still have an A-level world to explore."
"I don't want combatants."
Mason shook his head and said:
"I want a logistics and management position, a data body like Hanako Arasaka."
"Oh, that's okay."
V crossed his arms and said:
"I will apply to Rogge. It won't be a big problem, but you have to be careful of those corporate dogs. They are not honest in cyberspace.
As for me, I was resurrected through the Arasaka chip in reality, so I don’t know much about things there.
But I know that those corporate dogs are somewhat close to the wandering AIs. They are also a force in the gods and are very mysterious, especially those AIs.
They have formed a "data secret cult" in cyberspace and promote the concept of data ascension all day long.
Voodoo Gang.
Well, a force composed of psychotic hackers on our side is the main member of their "Data Church". They madly worship the god-level hacker Bartmos who tore apart the old network, and regard him as the "God of Data".
But if you want to say that these data beings have any bad intentions, I don’t think so. ”
He flicked the cigarette ashes and said:
"Although they are talkative, they are the force that cooperates most with the Afterlife Team. Those cyber hackers advocate calm and rational thinking. It is hard to imagine that these guys will plan any dangerous conspiracy."
"It seems you don't know much about them than I do."
Mason blew out a smoke ring and reminded V:
"Go back and talk to Morgan about this. If possible, pay more attention. I feel that those data beings may not be of the same mind as you.
Hurry up and send the materials. We're waiting for the construction to start.
In addition, I wish you good luck in developing your residency. ”
"Thank you."
V grinned, waved his hands and left the office. The captain just pretended not to notice the several magic swords handmade by Mason that he took away.
Mercenaries, it is their "professional habit" to have dirty hands and feet.
Besides, it could be secretly taken away by a well-informed guy like V, which shows that the swords made by Mason using forging and inscription techniques are of good quality and can barely pass the eyes of experts.
He set his sights on the left hand of creation on the table. He unsealed the biological jar and looked at the scarlet left hand soaked in biological liquid.
After a few seconds, Mason said with some pain:
"I got this thing, but how do I put it on? Do I have to cut off my left hand? And the warlock clearly said that this thing is exaggerated and may not be useful."
"Its composition is obviously very special."
When it comes to biology, Consus is never absent.
This Isu ghost appeared next to Mason in the form of a projection in the dispersion of light spots. He observed the creative left hand in front of him, rubbed his chin and said:
"Coupled with the rather mythical legend, I guess its use does not require destroying your own life form, and the so-called 'creation' concept is inherently abstract. Perhaps the hand itself is also the projection of this concept on the material level.
What it imparts is an ability, not the hand itself.
Touch it, my brother, and see what happens. ”
"Well, that makes sense."
Mason nodded, reached out and dipped his hand into the biological liquid and touched his scarlet left hand.
His fingertips felt like they were touching a still alive arm. The elasticity of the skin had not lost its vitality due to being chopped off, and there was even a residual warmth.
But as the contact lasted longer, the red severed hand in front of him "melted" quickly like the posture when it was wrapped in the Black Death Sword suit, and was "transferred" to Mason's left arm in a spray-paint manner.
In just ten seconds, his left hand transformed into the exact same shape as his original left hand, but it did not cause any discomfort to Mason.
Until the last ray of transformation was completed, a text description jumped into the translucent character card in front of Mason:
"The 'Conceptual Wonder · The Left Hand of Creation' is connected. There is no harm. The degree of compatibility between the concept of 'Creation' and the user is: perfect new talent is being given
The manufacturing talent is unlocked as:
[Creator: The time required for all manufacturing processes is reduced by 50%, the quantity of finished products is increased by 30% during batch production, and the rate of high-quality production is greatly improved. 】
[Dexterous left hand: When using engineering weapons with the left hand, the destructive power is increased by 30%. When using the left hand for close combat, the skill judgment is +1. 】
[Hand of Hope I: When using the left hand to perform first aid or make healing drugs, the quality and craftsmanship of the finished product will be +1. This effect can be upgraded by treating or making healing drugs. 】
[Inspiration: When using the left hand of creation to make products, there is a chance to stimulate the "inspiration" effect, making the finished product and process exceed the upper limit of the existing skills.
This effect cannot be upgraded. The more sophisticated the skill, the higher the chance of triggering it. 】"
"Tsk, plain and simple, simple and crude!"
Mason looked at his scarlet dexterous left hand with bright eyes.
When he moved his five fingers, he was quite satisfied with the effect of creating his left hand. By analogy, the effect of the Right Hand of Destruction obtained by Captain Morgan was probably also very overbearing, definitely not inferior to ordinary legendary weapons.
This time, he finally didn't trick his allies, which made Mason feel happy.
"But the color is weird."
He complained:
"Walking around with a hand like this, there's no guarantee that I won't be nicknamed the 'bloody hand massacrer' in the future."
"Indeed, it looks like a devil's claw."
Hat commented sharply:
"You'd better wear some gloves, Mason, before you become a villain."
"Mason! The awakening ceremony is about to begin!"
Barbara's reminder sounded in the team communication, and Mason responded and said:
"I'll be here soon when I find myself some gloves. Alas, it's a pity that the person who should be here to participate in this ceremony representing rebirth cannot come.
I hope Old Wolf and Captain Atom can enjoy eternal peace in heaven. ”
——
It's night in Gotham City.
There is no one in front of the ruins of the long-abandoned Gotham Orphanage. Ever since the Joker caused a tragedy here a few years ago, this ghost place has become one of the countless evil legends in Gotham City.
As the rumors became more and more outrageous, the Wayne Group simply took over the orphanage, which was on the verge of bankruptcy at the time, and rebuilt a better facility in the Odsburg district.
But being abandoned here doesn't mean that no one comes. In fact, it's a place where no one comes that is the most suitable place for some guys to hide, and the ruins of the orphanage tonight are not really peaceful.
The master is chasing a group of bank robbers here. Gotham City has no shortage of these desperate people.
This is not a difficult task for Batman. In fact, among the many situations he faces now, chasing a group of gun-wielding robbers is almost equivalent to "entertainment".
The master quickly completed the matter.
As usual, he called Commissioner Gordon and asked the police to finish the work, then jumped into the Batmobile and drove away. However, a few minutes later, a twisted space-time rift suddenly appeared, like a light shining in the night. Then it goes out.
A figure fell out with a pop and was lying on the grass in front of the orphanage. Something in her arms also rolled out.
No one paid attention to them until a dark shadow left and returned a few minutes later.
The master who glided down from high altitude landed quietly.
He cautiously approached the person who crossed the line, and then he was stunned for a moment when he saw the obvious female characteristics of the other person, and then turned his head to look at another thing.
"Dubari, I need you to come to Gotham! Now!" (End of Chapter)
