Chapter 420 35.Sir! ThisWay!
Mason returned to the dark realm of Black Strange an hour later.
His mind is already filled with a bunch of "super knowledge" that he cannot understand with his current knowledge base.
The scientific and technological achievements originating from the observer civilization are almost metaphysics. Things like the law of cause and effect, numerical rates, etc., which are difficult to pronounce, almost turned Mason's brain into a pot of pig brains.
He felt his brain heating up, and now he urgently needed some good news to relieve the pressure.
Then, he got good news.
"This is the soul gem?"
Mason looked at the orange rough diamond the size of a M-bean that was handed to him by Nick Fury. The latter was contained in a delicate bottle and suspended in it, emitting a mysterious and unusual light.
This light illuminated Mason's eyes and made him doubtful.
He reached out and held the bottle containing the soul gem, then raised his head and scanned the heroes in front of him, and said in a strange tone:
"So which great person voluntarily sacrificed the one he loved? I think Cyclops and Dr. Reed, who have the highest chance of sacrifice, are both still alive.
Could it be that Mr. Zhang finally couldn't help but feel helpless towards the old woman and chose to push Aunt Mei down? ”
"Ha, you would never guess the truth."
Zha Kang, who was holding a cigarette butt in his mouth, winked and recounted what had just happened to Mason. After hearing that Hope had exchanged the zombie Pym couple for the Soul Stone, Mason was stunned at this moment even though he had seen so much. In place.
"What kind of high-end magic operation is this?"
He rubbed his brows and complained fiercely:
"Super zombies have actually developed new uses. After this 'strategy' is spread, the number of soul gems in the entire parallel world is expected to increase sharply.
For the sake of this soul gem, the domestic violence man must be given a big medal. ”
"We got the gems, we did our job, where's yours?"
Nick Fury stared at Mason who ran back with empty hands.
He was so anxious that his one eye was bloodshot. It was obviously because Brainiac's overwhelming strength made Lu Dan feel hopeless.
Like a gambler, he placed his last chance on Mason.
"Reed, is the database hard drive ready?"
Mason held the soul gem in his hand and turned to shout to Mr. Fantastic in the crowd.
The latter nodded, picked up the huge hard drive at his feet that was deliberately made into a storage box, walked over, placed it in front of Mason's eyes with a click, and opened it.
"I still can't understand what you want to do with this super hard drive that can store the entire data network, but according to your request, I set up triple redundancy for it."
Dr. Reed, who had just escaped, pushed up his glasses and introduced:
"It is also equipped with a wireless transmission signal transmitter, but it can only be used once."
"For a god-level hacker, one chance is enough."
Mason bent down and took out Buttermos' data beacon interface, inserted it into the database in front of him and took a step back.
The beacon started to flash with a reddish light, indicating that something invisible was being guided across the plane and into the box in front of him.
After a few minutes of waiting, the light of the beacon interface dimmed, and the personal computer fixed on Dr. Reed's wrist suddenly turned on automatically and printed a line of jumping characters in the optical projection:
"HelloWorld!"
"!!!"
Dr. Reed's expression changed drastically at this moment, and he was frantically operating on his personal computer like a young man suffering from computer poisoning.
He realized that his computer had been hacked, but the Baxter Firewall he had written did not pop up any prompts.
This scene surprised his three academic teammates. They gathered together to discuss the plan, but they were completely unable to stop the mysterious program hidden in Dr. Reed's computer from opening the Fantastic Four's dedicated database and starting to read through their experimental data. .
This scene is like a bank employee watching a master thief swaggering into the vault and turning over the treasure, but he can't do anything about it.
"Okay, Buttermoss, get ready when you've had enough fun."
Mason looked at the time on his watch, put the soul gem in his hand into the database hard drive disguised as a storage box in front of him, locked it in his hand, and said to the empty surroundings:
"You only have one chance."
"When I tore up the old network, I only had one chance. When I completed the global upload process of Mikoshi, I still only had one chance, but I never missed it."
A strange electronic combination sounded from Mason's watch, and he said with a hint of ridicule and eagerness:
"Rather than worrying about my failed intrusion, you should quickly find a few better programmers to reset the communication module of Team K for you. A firewall of this level is no different from toilet paper."
"Who is that?"
A group of people around looked at Mason's watch that had also been hacked silently in amazement. Dr. Reed said with great interest:
"It looks like a super intelligent program? Is it the legendary data life?"
"Yes, some people call him the 'God of Data'."
Mason pushed the frame on the bridge of his nose and said:
"It just so happens that we are going against the God of Wisdom. This divine battle will kick off the last battle in this world. Either win or die. There is no third option."
"The Galaxy Miranda has picked up the 'passengers'."
Star-Lord Black Panther squeezed out of the crowd and whispered to Mason:
"It is entering the solar system and is expected to return to Earth in a few hours."
"I can't wait that long."
Mason turned to look at Ciri and pointed at his watch. Ms. Hunter curled her lips, turned around, opened a crack and disappeared into it.
"Mason, the Green Goblin just sent this information."
Fury handed him the data he had collected about the Exile spacecraft. Mason took it, looked at it, shook his head and said:
"There is no clue. Knowing the weakness of the spacecraft does not mean that we can take advantage of it, but it represents the attitude of the Green Goblin. He is indeed a standard opportunist.
I guess that's what Doom meant too. ”
He glanced at Dr. Reed and said to Fury:
"You communicate with them and ask them to find a way to release Brainiac's prisoners. They have to do something practical if they want to benefit from it. Leave the Exile's shield system to us. Once it disappears, it will be your signal to launch a counterattack. .
Harley, Kang, let's go. ”
Mason patted the box in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said to his teammates:
"As members of the Society of Stars, it's time to visit the noble Director of Hope and give him a heavy gift. If we please Lord Brainiac, not only can we escape the disaster, but we may also be rewarded. ”
——
Brainiac's main ship remained over New York City, recovering his Skrull minions who had been weakened by the neurotoxin attack.
Most of these "copycat aliens" were killed in the previous conflict, leaving only a group of defeated soldiers, but for their failure, Brainiac did not say a word or make any punishment.
Sounds pretty kind.
But this is just another form of contempt and disregard.
Of course, these Skrulls who escaped the hero's liquidation are not without merit at all. They have also been working hard to complete the tasks ordered by Brainiac to show their value.
For Brainiac, who advocates absolute rationality, his methods of dealing with items that are worthless and occupy resources have always been cruel and efficient.
Working under such a commander is obviously not a good job that can make people feel happy.
"Our compatriots left in the universe still can't find the hiding place of the Soul Stone. Great Master, I don't want to point out your mistake, but the Vormir star you pointed out has long been empty."
< br>
At this time, Queen Skrull, who was standing on the edge of the main control room, lowered her head, with a kind of pilgrimage humility and heartfelt fear, as if to justify their failure and said:
"Great Master, maybe we should immediately restart the search for the soul gem in this plane? Those heroes of this world who were rescued by strange forces must also be looking for it.
We must be one step ahead of them.
My people and I are willing to offer our loyalty to your cause again, as long as there is a precise place and goal. ”
"No need, the heroes of this world have already understood the purpose of my coming here."
Brainiac, who was still sitting on the mechanical throne, waved his hand. He rejected Queen Skrull's suggestion and said casually:
"I don't have to do anything, they will naturally send the soul stone to me. This is the only conclusion reached after tens of millions of calculations.
They don't have the ability to fight back.
Therefore, the only available strategy is to use soul gems to satisfy my desire and use this to reach a peace initiative with me. There is a very small chance that they will launch a sneak attack on me when delivering the rough gems.
But they lack the power to win.
In this future model, the only two 'variables' that need to be considered are the two outsiders who do not belong to this world, Mason Cooper and the mysterious spellcaster.
Especially the latter."
Brainiac's mechanical tentacles connected to his brain to the upper left were trembling.
This means that he is doing a lot of thinking and making computational predictions about the future based on the current situation.
This is how he fights.
Using data and calculations to formulate next strategies and provide timely feedback on changes has made him invincible in the past.
And his accurate prediction of the heroes' next move at this time seemed to prove the excellence of this strategy. However, just as Brainiac was calculating how to deal with the "variables", he stood aside with a standard robot. The same perfect Ultron suddenly shook his body.
The five infinity stones in the grooves on its chest shone one by one, which seemed to mean that something had just happened.
It raised its head.
Report to Brainiac with a non-fluctuating electronic sound:
"The original soul stone has been taken out, and the location when it disappeared is consistent with the location where the heroes of the earth were hiding, in that strange plane that cannot be traced."
"Well, as I expected."
Brainiac on the throne nodded.
Red light spots danced in the depths of his deep eyes, obviously thinking about strategies. After a moment, he activated the communication projection on his throne of knowledge, and the Green Goblin's head was suspended in front of him.
Brainiac said to the collaborator he considered "embarrassing and useless":
"I wanted to destroy this world to cover up my actions here and avoid irritating my dangerous companions."
The Mechanical Throne was rotating in the air, and Brainiac, who was sitting on it, looked down at the leader of the Evil Six. He said:
"My previous promise to hand over this world to your control was just a comforting strategy. You lacked the power to check me, so in the face of this outcome, you can only choose to accept and continue to be attached to me.
But now, I have changed my mind.
I can fulfill our agreement and lend you my legions to make you the true king of the world.
But you must do one more thing for me.
Interfering with the variables in the future model requires corresponding means to check and balance, so when they send the soul gems, you have to take care of Mason Cooper for me.
And Doom, I have a very important mission for you.
I need you and Doctor Strange in this world who is hidden by you to hold back the mysterious spellcaster. If he is on the side of the heroes, then you must delay until I complete my plan.
If you can accomplish this, then I will ensure that our agreement is honored and the world will be protected until the final stages of the impact are reached. ”
The Green Goblin and his friends are a little dissatisfied.
Because the guy in front of him expressed his intention to break the contract in a very arrogant way.
But as Brainiac's calm voice emphasized, they lacked the power to check the cyborg.
They can also bounce back.
But it would be a bit too "presumptuous" to do such a thing when someone else's fleet already controls the world.
You see, Brainiac didn't even mention this probability, which shows that this level 12 intelligent creature has completely figured out the Green Goblin and his gang.
The communication was hung up the next moment, and the gloomy Green Goblin turned back to look at his companions, and finally set his sights on Dr. Doom who was busy in front of a large quantum computer at the other end of the room.
He said:
"Dum, what do you think?"
"They got the Soul Stone, they got back the match point, they did their best."
Doom's fingers kept tapping the keyboard, pushing what he was executing into the next stage. He said without looking back:
"The next step is to see if they can effectively check and balance Brainiac. I want to remind you that just because Brainiac speaks candidly does not mean that he will not lie.
He didn't even hide his intention to break the contract, which meant that he had another choice.
Instead of betting on the sincerity of this conqueror of the universe, I prefer to do something sure. In fact, the hero's side also has choices left to us.
The Vault's shields currently appear to be unbreakable from the outside, but we can attempt an internal assault.
In their previous defeat, they allowed Brainiac to capture some of their most powerful heroes, which was more like a preparation in advance for a subsequent counterattack. ”
"Ka"
He typed the last line of code to make the extremely complex program written in an alien language on the screen enter self-test, then turned back to the Green Goblin and said:
"When Brainiac promised me the future, I intercepted the program information of his mechanical throne used to control the Exile ship.
Now I have cracked the firewall in Throne.
The spaceship and his fleet adopt a 'hive mode', so gaining control of the throne means that you can control Brainiac's legions on his behalf. ”
Doom glanced at the screen, and after the program self-test was completed, he removed the black plug-in mechanical interface and handed it to the Green Goblin. The latter took it in his hand, looked at it, and said to Doom:
"This thing is just given to me? You know that if I control that spaceship, I will become the real king of the world, right?"
"It's up to you whether you want to be the king of the world or the leader of the earth."
Doom's eyes under the iron armor stared at Norman Osborn, and he said:
"Just don't disturb my plan. Brainiac's judgment of you is very accurate. Norman, your qualifications are no longer enough to go further.
Until now, you still feel that Brainiac in front of you is our biggest threat, even if the other party has clearly told you that there are things he can't handle.
You know nothing about the real threat, just as you still can't figure out why I asked to join your Sinister Six.
That ship contains valuable knowledge that will ensure we don't struggle unprepared to survive in the dark times we face next.
Impact!
The cosmic crisis that has never happened in this world but is real is the heavy burden I am thinking about, but I can leave these heavy things to the wise to worry about. ”
His Majesty the King of Latvinia reached out and patted the Green Goblin on the shoulder, and said with a hint of sarcasm:
"As for you, my friend, enjoy your life as the king of the world." (End of Chapter)
