Chapter 557 23. I don’t want the defective villain! Hey, we're not superhero trash cans!
"The situation is as it is now. I don't know much about her past, so I can't tell you about Madeleine's specific experience. I just know that she has great differences with Utopia."
On an observation deck in Scarlet Castle, Mason reported to old Emma that she was safe through cross-world contact, and told her everything that had happened before.
In the optical projection in front of him, Mason's "mom" was enjoying a sunbath in a bikini that was more open than a little girl's. There was a new boyfriend beside her who was helping her cut a watermelon.
Seeing how that guy was so stupid and could only smile the most charmingly, he must have been mind-controlled by Emma.
Tsk, when it comes to finding servants, these psychic power users are really full of tricks. Facing Mason's report, the White Queen, who was wearing sunglasses covering half of her face, was not very happy. She said in a long voice and expressionlessly:
"So the first news you, a heartless brat, told me after you were in danger and scared your mother half to death, was that you strangled your long-lost sister to death with your own hands, about thirteen times? < br>
Do you think this news about family members killing each other will make me happy? ”
"I'm just making a routine report, Emma, don't ask for too much. Maybe it's a good thing that Madeleine ran away, so that you don't have to bear the pain of losing a daughter.
But if I meet her again, I will not let her go. Her various behaviors mean that she is used to destruction and destruction. Maybe there is some kind of flaw in her personality. In short, I think she is about to enter the "Dark Phoenix" 'To the extent.
You're a mutant, and you know I have no choice if that happens. ”
Mason held his chin and retorted:
"Besides, who said before that she only regards me as her little baby? Why did she start complaining about me after hearing the news about the Red Queen?
Didn't you and Scott plan to adopt not one child, but two? ”
"Sharp teeth and a sharp tongue! Have you ever talked to your mother like this?"
Emma scolded in displeasure:
"What do I just say? Madeleine has a special status after all. You know that Jean Gray in our hometown died early because of the experience of transforming into the Dark Phoenix, right?
It was not easy to get her X-gene sample under those circumstances. Therefore, I now strongly suspect that Madeleine’s birth may be related to my ex-boyfriend.
That little girl might be a baby cloned by Scott because he couldn't remember his old relationship. Maybe he wanted to give me a 'surprise'.
This can be seen from the fact that her serial number is next to yours.
Although Scott has died long ago, there is still a friendship in my heart after all. I mean, if it doesn’t bother you, you’d better take it out before you strangle each other to show politeness the next time you meet her. Take some time to talk to her. ”
Having said this, Emma took off her sunglasses, revealing her eyes that were red from crying. She said seriously to Mason on the other side of the optical projection:
"Madeline wanted to win you into her big family, and she took the initiative to confess her life experience to you. This may be an element of use, but I believe that your status in her heart is definitely different from others.
This is an opportunity.
That means she can be your booster, too, kid.
The more help you need to do what you want to do, the better. Even a superficial friend who is insincere and submissive is much better than having an enemy to worry about, right?
Trust me, my feelings in this regard are always accurate. Find an opportunity to talk to your sister. ”
"If there is a chance."
Mason did not refuse directly. He changed the topic to a lighter topic and said to the White Queen who was enjoying the vacation in front of him:
"How far has the divorce process between you and Black Bolt reached? Is it really irreversible now? Look, although I don't have much contact with you, I think he is actually quite qualified as an adoptive father except that he doesn't like to talk. .”
"You still have the nerve to mention him?"
Emma's tone suddenly became angry, she waved her hands and screamed:
"Do you still remember the damn 'Master' of the Star Council and the army of aliens controlled by him during the previous world war?"
"Remember."
Mason blinked and said:
"That guy was targeted by Sister Ka and died miserably, but Sister Ka was a bit ruthless and she also killed the young version of Black Bolt who was being controlled by his mind.
Lao Wang even went to help liberate his people in another world for this purpose. This was a good thing. Logically speaking, he would not be so depressed now that he had spiritual sustenance again. ”
"Then do you know that the old guy secretly got together with Medusa, who just lost her husband in another world? I seriously doubt that Cassandra stabbed her too many times on purpose.
Your Naka sister is a complete fun-loving person. ”
The White Queen was so angry that she scolded:
"I was talking about how he, an old man who was out of breath when walking, suddenly felt so much younger recently, and he was so elusive, so one day I found an opportunity to follow him.
He was caught on the spot!
I was almost mad to death. If old Logan hadn't stopped me, I would have given them both a good look on the spot! The divorce process has not yet been completed and you are having such fun. That old thing is really old-hearted.
This has always been the case for me to dump men. How can any man dare to cheat on me?
You don't need to persuade me.
I'm done playing with him, and I'll bring you back a handsome, young, rich, handsome stepfather in a few days. Speaking of which, you seem to have a good impression of Bruce Wayne.
Why don't mom try harder?
Catwoman and Talia are all disposable characters, so it’s not difficult at all. ”
"You'd better not do that."
Mason's face suddenly turned cold, and he hung up the phone with a harsh word.
On the other side of the beach, Emma watched in surprise as the light curtain dissipated in front of her eyes. She suddenly realized that her joke seemed to have gone too far.
But at the same time, I felt a little happy.
Because this fierce reaction meant that little Mason had finally begun to accept her. If Mason didn't care about her, with that child's character, he wouldn't be angry at such things but would laugh and make fun of her.
"Oh, what a pity."
The White Queen lay back comfortably on the chair, and the manservant beside her enthusiastically handed over the watermelon, but Emma just glanced at him, then stretched out her hand to touch this little piece of meat that looked like Cyclops Scott face.
If Emma read it correctly, this should be Cyclops's time and space alien in this world. It took her a long time and even went through the Justice League channels to find him.
She said:
"I originally wanted to play for a few more days and renew our relationship, but my sweet son got angry, so our fate has to end here. Little cutie, it's time for you to go home.
Forget about auntie, find a good girl and live a good life.
Go ahead. ”
She waved her hand, and the handsome guy who was controlled by her mind turned around blankly.
After walking more than a dozen steps, he suddenly woke up, looked around and then felt a chill, and then left as if running away, leaving Emma humming and continuing to enjoy her rare vacation in the sun.
On the other side, Mason was blowing smoke rings by the window of his office, but suddenly a black figure jumped from a high place and landed on the edge of the castle window.
Sister Selina, who put on the Catwoman uniform again, stretched her body, looked at the depressed Mason, and said:
"What's going on? Who made my little brother Mason angry? Do you want me to help you teach him a lesson?"
"Okay."
Mason glanced at her and said:
"You'd better keep an eye on me. My mother is eyeing him. Bruce's inexplicable luck with women is really good. I suspect Emma has a complete plan to deal with you.
Maybe that night you will be brainwashed by mind control, forget about Bruce, leave Gotham, and start your life again in a place where no one knows you. ”
"Do you think the White Queen is too kind? Do you think she will treat me as gently as she treats you?"
Catwoman curled her lips, sat on the window next to Mason, and said:
"If Emma has a bad character, she will most likely transfer my love for Bruce to another man. Who do you think she will choose?
So, Mason, I advise you not to be so optimistic. ”
Selena stretched out her hand and flicked the bridge of Mason's nose and said:
"Auntie, I don't want to have to fight with Harley and Quinn to get you into my mouth even at my old age, even though I know I can do it.
But with the style of those two crazy beauties, if I really do this, there is a high chance that I will be filled with cement and thrown into Gotham Port, or I will encounter a time and space storm during a certain mission and be thrown into the sun by a silver-haired girl and my body will be destroyed. .
You still have the nerve to say that Bruce's love fortune is good, and I think yours is not bad either.
Are you free tonight?
Let's go together and eavesdrop on the secret conversation between the two Bruce Waynes? I have found out clearly that the two of them will have a secret meeting in the southern tower of Scarlet Castle at nine o'clock tonight.
I have no doubt that Gray Bat will ask Bruce about you. ”
"I'm not free. I have to interrogate the prisoner tonight."
Mason glanced at his schedule and said:
"Those captured Conqueror clones are a problem, and I have to deal with it before I leave here."
"Oh, by the way, you have a sister who sounds very troublesome."
Catwoman shrugged with some regret. She actually liked working secretly with Mason. She patted Mason on the shoulder again and comforted him:
"Don't think too much, look at you now, you have a mother from an orphan, and you have a sister. Although they are not biological, you are in this situation that Bruce would have dreamed of at night a few years ago.
Although you can't go there, you can eavesdrop on their conversations through the monitor.
Whether it's the monitor on me or Bruce's, you can always get the information you want. One last thing I want to tell you, Damian just had an idea for me.
He said that he would take the Gray Bat and the Queen of Justice’s child back to Osborne Tower and give it to Thomas and Martha to raise”
Selina moved her fingers and said to Mason who was lost in thought:
"This proposal sounds outrageous, but if you think about it carefully, it is indeed feasible. The world of lords is different from the world of our previous allies.
They don't have such a deep bond with us. They have a high degree of autonomy. And as you said, they have secretly planned dangerous methods of invading other worlds to prevent the demise of their own world.
This is almost the same level of strategy as the Star Club.
If you want to truly trust each other, an agreement alone is of little significance. Although the exchange of important people is just the icing on the cake, considering the identities of Thomas, Martha and the child, such an arrangement does have the possibility of passing.
And I noticed that everyone in the Lord World seems to value this kind of ritual thing. Isn’t the marriage of Lord Superman and the Queen of Justice the best example? ”
"But the proton exchange is mutual."
Mason rubbed his chin, looked at Selena, and said:
"How about you stay here, use your amazing charm, and see if you can have something interesting happen with Gray Bat? It's best to charm him and snatch him back from the Queen of Justice.
It’s not good for the relationship between the Big Three to always be so messy. ”
"By the way, create opportunities for your mother and Bruce, right?"
Catwoman reached out and hammered Mason on the shoulder, and both of them laughed in the next moment, but after the laughter, Mason's expression became serious, and he said:
"Let Damian and Xiao Qiao stay here, and the exchange of this important person does not have to last too long. It will be done after the fourth impact.
I'm here to talk to them about this. Well, it seems that it is necessary to go with you tonight to eavesdrop on the conversation between the master and the gray bat about me.
But before that, there is something we need to discuss.
About those super criminals in Lord World. ”
"Why consider them?"
Catwoman said in surprise:
"I heard Harley bragging to me before. Didn't all the criminals in that world have their frontal lobes cut off and become good babies? It is said that Arkham Asylum in the Lord's World is the safest and best environment for mentally ill people in the world. Research center, at least before the war."
"Yes, they had their frontal lobes removed and turned into silly little cuties."
Mason flexed his fingers and said:
"But such a small problem is not an insurmountable flaw in the face of magical alchemy. Think about it, how destructive a team composed entirely of super villains can be in a conflict?
They are villains.
They do not need to consider the constraints of morality, just like the Legion of Doom played a role for the Warlock camp in World War. Things that cannot be left to the Justice League and Avengers can be performed by these scum.
It just so happened that Luther let Old Luther go, and the old man and Martha also left Gotham. Maybe we should find something for them to do. ”
“This is a good idea!”
Selena's eyes lit up and she said:
"The Deathstroke Legion that has been doing dark work for you is just the right one to take in these guys. Let the old man fly there as the leader, with two Luthers as his think tank, and two Deathstroke as the commanders.
Martha controlled the situation behind the scenes, and coupled with the foundation of Old Luthor's Legion of Doom, you almost created a mobile force that could rival the Justice League out of thin air.
The best part is, they’re the villains, so we don’t need to be more responsible for their safety and mental health.
Excellent cheap cannon fodder that can be used multiple times.
Wow, Mason, you little guy is becoming more and more pragmatic in his thinking, which is something you didn't think you could do just a few months ago. ”
"Actually, I have always been like this. I just had to worry about the impact before, but people always have to grow."
Mason shook his head and said:
"Perhaps I should make myself a Yin-Yang Tiger Talisman to separate the good and evil parts of me like Harley did. In this way, we can have more manpower."
"No!"
Catwoman immediately reached out and covered Mason's mouth. The eldest sister stared at him and said seriously:
"We don't need a baby Mason who is too kind, or a K Corps commander who is too vicious and treats everyone as a plaything.
The current Mason is very good. The unique Mason is our leader.
Do you know what I mean? ”
"I am a proposal."
Mason shrugged, looked at the time, and said:
"Then you go and prepare first. They will meet at nine o'clock in the evening. Let's set off at eight-thirty to see if Ergong and Barbara are interested in joining us?"
"Two barrels? Haha."
Catwoman showed a mysterious smile, made a less appropriate gesture, and said mysteriously to Mason:
"Er Tong has found his own 'Talia', you'd better not disturb him. As for Barbara, I just saw her arguing with your mechanical chair.
It's better not to take them with you, just the two of us.
Just think of it as a date with the old aunt you once had a crush on. I don't think Harley and Quinn will be jealous. ”
"When you say this, it always seems like there is some serious relationship between us."
Mason complained:
"But in fact, the innocence between the two of us is as good as paper. I still have to be busy for a while. It is also difficult to convince the justice lords to hand over those super villains who have been 'harmless'.
I have to think carefully about what words to use.
Well, it feels like you have set your sights on your neighbor's unwanted garbage. Although the neighbor may be willing to give it to you, you must always consider the face of the two parties getting along in the future.
I have to find a way to pick up this rubbish standing up.
But even if you want to be the trash can of the justice lords, there must be a valid reason. "(End of Chapter)
