Chapter 657 24. The dog struggling to break free from the collar and the man willing to bow his head
"The dive procedure is ready! Check the submersible device for the last time and reply when you see the green light."
In the quantum laboratory of New Osborne Tower, Ms. Janet is nervously conducting the final confirmation of quantum submersible. She has presided over this kind of thing more than once, but the situation this time is slightly different from before.
The first is that the coordinates leading to the quantum world have changed. The large number of calculations that need to be completed after the change of the landing point of the 2149 universe did not yield results until yesterday. This is the first field test after the coordinate change.
Secondly, the "travellers" who want to enter the quantum world and enter another dimension this time are also different from before.
On the guide rail of the huge quantum tunnel in front of him, a large black submarine was filled with people. The master sat in the driver's seat and completed the instrument self-check according to Ms. Janet's reminder. After repeatedly confirming that it was correct, he controlled the front Ms. Janet on the stage made a sign that everything was OK.
"The quantum tunnel energy is connected, and the dive into the microscopic world will begin in thirty seconds!"
The original Wasp brushed her gray hair and reminded:
"During this process, try to gather your energy so as not to interfere with the dive process, especially you, the large group. Any energy collision will cause phase coordinates to be disordered.
Although with your strength you won't die even if you get lost in the quantum realm, it means that we have lost this opportunity that we have been preparing for a long time. I don't need to emphasize how disastrous the consequences will be.
The Zombie K Team will greet you on the other side as planned.
After passing through, don't rush to move around. Turn on the death breath filtering device on your body to avoid being assimilated to that plane. ”
Janet paused and said in an emphasis:
"I don't know if Mason has told you specifically about the risks of this trip, but the fact is that once you are injured there, you can easily die quickly and be captured by the 2149 universe.
That means you will never be able to return to the world you are familiar with, but think on the bright side, it also means you will gain eternal life."
"That's a terrible joke, little Janet."
Sister Ka complained:
"You just like to say these words that make people's hearts beat wildly at this time, right? This is probably the bad taste of you researchers. If I can come back alive, don't even think about leaving by yourself at the celebration banquet. Out.
I will drown you in wine. ”
"I look forward to that day, Lady Cassandra."
Dr. Janet laughed. When the countdown reached zero, the nested bodies of the quantum tunnels in front of the black submarine were lit up one by one. As the energy was connected to the guide rails, the submarine-like device began to slide forward. After the infusion of Pym particles was completed, it rapidly shrank to the subatomic level in one second.
The whole process is so fast that you will ignore it if you don’t look carefully.
"The dive was successful! Arriving at the scheduled coordinates of the quantum world, the first stage was successfully completed!"
After a few seconds of observation, Ms. Janet let out a sigh of relief. She said to the commandos who had entered the quantum world through the special communication device built into the submarine:
"Wait patiently for five minutes. The effect of the Pym particles will disappear and you will be sent back to the macroscopic world. If there is no problem with the phase coordinates, then you will appear directly in the earth in the 2149th plane.
Please send back confirmation information after you arrive at the predetermined location. After you are in place, the resistance forces heading to Mephisto's hell dimension will set off immediately! ”
"Okay."
Lord Chao's slightly changed voice came from the console, he said:
"Can we move around freely here? The scenery of the microscopic world is indescribable."
"Beautifully twisted, crazy majestic, that's how I would describe it."
Ms. Janet smiled and reminded:
"You are free to move, but you must gather at your current location when the five-minute countdown ends. Any coordinate error will cause an astronomical difference in the macroscopic world.
If you don't want to be sent into the sun or pressed into a black hole, don't run around. ”
After saying that, she temporarily closed the communication, looked at the time, then turned to her two daughters behind her and said:
"You are responsible for the next thing. After the rebel coalition forces set off, immediately seal this quantum tunnel and deploy a collapse jammer. After this assault operation is over, this quantum tunnel must be permanently sealed!
It would be too fatal to leave this weakness behind once the two sides fall out. We should not be so stupid as to conclude that the other party has never mastered the technology to open the quantum tunnel.
Now, I have to go to the speedsters. ”
"Mom, Mason said you don't need to take such risks."
The young woman Hope held her mother's hand worriedly and said:
"The grudge between you and Kang the Conqueror is over. That dangerous guy should no longer disturb your current life. The speedsters can take care of it all."
"I can indeed entrust all this to young people who are fast, but that doesn't mean I have to sit back and watch."
The first-generation Wasp Girl took off her coat to reveal the Wasp uniform she had already put on. She reached out and patted her two daughters on the shoulders and said to them:
"I am the one who knows Kang the Conqueror best among all of Mason's current friends, and I no longer need to repeat what Mason means to us.
I must personally participate in his protection.
This is not only to settle the grudge between me and Kang, but also for the future, so that you will no longer suffer the same fate as me. If those guys are allowed to win, our lives will not be easy in the future.
You have grown up. If I can't come back, if I pass away quietly in the past, you don't have to be sad.
Be brave!
Walk into tomorrow bravely, a new day represents new hope"
Ms. Janet put her forehead against her daughters' foreheads, hugged them, and then activated the suit and flew out of the laboratory with the high-speed vibration of its wings and soon arrived at the gathering place of the speedsters.
The entire Flash family and Barry are here to warm up.
Even the three gods of speed who had participated in the fusion of worlds before were here. Looking at the expressions on their faces, it was clear that they were definitely not voluntary, but came as representatives of the forces of the gods.
After all, traveling through time to protect one's past has always been troublesome and dangerous. The Gods of Speed have no special relationship with Mason, so there is no need to risk one's life.
"Engineer Mason asked me to give this to you, ma'am."
Flash took out two wrist-shaped energy spike launchers from the storage compartment on his belt, and he said to Ms. Janet:
"That guy said that this thing is sure to hit as long as it is aimed. It is most suitable for fighting in the time stream. We don't need these, but you definitely need some means of self-protection."
"Well, the law of cause and effect energy wrist cannon! A powerful thing."
The Wasp skillfully replaced her original wrist cannon with the energy bracer. After moving her body, she said to the speedsters in front of her:
"You all know your mission, right? Plan Mason into several stages from his birth to the present, and each person is responsible for one of the time periods. In order to prevent Kang the Conqueror from launching a devastating attack on Mason in the past to create a timeline level Collapse.”
"We know, ma'am!"
Little Iris, who was wearing windshield goggles, raised his hands and shouted:
"We've all read your plan, and we'll kick that hateful bastard's ass as you asked! But are you sure he can't be killed?"
"When you really see Kang Zhijun, you won't have such doubts."
Ms. Janet shook her head and said:
"Unless the Holy Timeline collapses, Kang will not really die, but defeating him is not as difficult as you think. Let's get started.
Let's go back in time and protect Mason's present and future. ”
——
"Let me see your left arm!"
Mason shouted to Old A, as if the rapid change of emotions caused a low thunder to emit from the heavy rain outside the window. The flickering light illuminated the dimmed hall, and the truth was revealed on Old A's face. The ferociousness disappeared in a flash.
He covered his arms and took a step back.
It seems to be regarded as a shame that cannot be seen by others.
But this action itself has verified Mason's conjecture, allowing the captain to finally have a perfect answer to Old A's strange performance today.
"I asked you how could you suddenly be willing to give up everything you have and join forces with me to fight against Mephisto? I thought you suddenly changed your temper and changed from a bastard to a righteous partner.
It seems that I really thought too much.
For a guy like you, when the fire is not on you, you will always only think about taking advantage of the crisis to seek benefits, but once you are involved, things will not be so simple. ”
In front of Old A, Mason unbuttoned the shirt on his left arm and pulled up the sleeves. The black devil tattoo on his arm looked so ferocious in the dim room.
The mark that represented the soul contract made Lu Dan look downcast. Finally, under Mason's gaze, he gritted his teeth and pulled open his sleeve, revealing a tattoo that was exactly the same as Mason's.
"I was plotted by him."
Old A said dumbly:
"That bastard calculated all this. He used you to push me into a dilemma, and he used Geralt and Yennefer's soul stones as bait. I was negligent.
At that moment, I fell into this damn situation.
But it doesn't matter. The words have been spoken, and you have seen my true situation and you should know that what I just said to you is not a joke or another trap set for you.
I really hope to work with you, Mason.
Give Mephisto a hard blow to the heart and give that bastard who wants to control everything a taste of what it feels like to lose control.
I admit that I messed up, but there are two roads in front of me. If you are not going to give us both a chance, then I can only go to the dark side on this road of violence and hatred. ”
"Are you threatening me?"
The rain outside the window was pouring more and more, as if some kind of rain-related natural disaster had occurred. Amidst the increasingly rapid and violent rain, Mason stared at Nick Fury expressionlessly, and he said:
"Do you think you can force me to cooperate with you in this way? I admit that the existence of Mephisto has become a common trouble for you and me, but seeing you fall into the same situation as us hounds and even being forced to My enemy asked for help, and I had to admit that the old devil did a good thing
I didn't cause your troubles, old A, so don't put the blame on me!
Didn't your parents tell you not to play with the devil when you were a kid? Even if your parents haven't taught you this, so many stories are trying to teach you this.
Nothing good will happen to anyone who deals with the devil. You are only bringing the blame upon yourself. ”
Mason laughed loudly in the sound of rain. Facing the gloomy old A, he sarcastically said:
"In the beginning, you stayed out of the matter and watched the people of the Society of Stars struggling to survive in this cursed and dark age. You regarded other people's disasters as fodder for laughter and laughter, and you used our desire for relief and freedom to guide us to join you.
You say you understand the cruelty of it all, but you don't even bother to pay attention to us struggling in the quagmire.
But now, you have become one of us.
You will also experience for yourself the emotions we feel every day, the helplessness of being constrained, and the pain of becoming a pawn in the hands of others.
That kind of despair
Do you know the most ironic part? Old A. ”
The captain took a step back, and I held the Destiny Pistol at my waist. The moment my fingers touched the handle of the gun, blue light lingered on it.
The law of causality module is turned on and must be applied.
He said:
"We are dogs who were forced to be deceived and abducted to become Mephisto. We had to sacrifice everything in our hometown for his ambition, but you are different.
You volunteered to be his dog!
Because of your hypocrisy, indifference and greed, you voluntarily stepped into the pot prepared by the old devil for you. Now you remember who is your truly trustworthy partner?
After stabbing us countless times and hurting countless people mercilessly, do you think of apologizing and admitting your mistakes and trying to join this humble alliance of rebels?
What the hell were you doing so early?
Do you want an answer?
I'll give you an answer! ”
Mason grabbed his pistol and aimed it at Old A. He said coldly:
"I refuse!"
"I refuse to give you half of the future. I refuse to share the sky of the next era with your doomsday star made of the corpses of countless worlds. I refuse to hold you up when you fall into the quagmire.
I refuse to admit that you who voluntarily kneel down and put your head in shackles are the same kind of people as us hounds struggling to survive in the dark, no!
We are not!
It's not that I'm cold enough, or that I'm a bad person, it's just that you deserve it!
We long to be off the leash.
And you only deserve this one bullet. ”
"Bang"
The bullet came out of the barrel and flew out of the barrel of the Gun of Destiny. It hit Old A right between the eyebrows with the special effects of energy blasting and burning, without even requiring the law of cause and effect to take effect.
Facing a completely defenseless guy at this distance, Mason would never miss.
Splashes of blood spilled, and the body with most of its head smashed fell backwards and rolled to the ground under the force of the impact. The final expression still maintained anger and regret.
"Look at you, you must be scared, you don't even dare to come and see me in person"
Mason walked to the body and looked at the lifelike clone. He held the pistol that was still emitting smoke and said:
"You keep asking for help, but where is your sincerity? Hide in your office and stay well, hide in your lair to welcome the end of the story between you and me.
Light a candle for yourself in advance and choose a cemetery. I will come to you soon and end this once and for all. ”
"哐"
The floor behind Mason exploded with a loud noise, and several figures rushed out from the dust.
Each of them possesses powerful power. They are killing machines newly born from the underground super mutant base, and their skins still contain biological culture fluid that has not yet been wiped off.
The magical effect produced by compound No. 5 mixed with the X gene made these guys who were imbued with the will to kill when they were born extremely dangerous, but Mason just looked back at them.
He stood next to the corpse of Old A's clone and watched those guys rushing toward him.
The rainstorm that had been brewing for nearly ten minutes also reached its peak at this moment. As the captain's thoughts moved slightly, the raindrops in the sky roared and turned in the direction like countless darts hitting the glass wall at the same time, and then again. The ear-piercing sound of shattering glass turned into a huge wave filled with cold air, coming from behind Mason.
The captain swung his backhand, and the dead water trident fell into the palm of his hand, allowing him to stand in the center of the intertwined currents, washing away everything in front of him.
"You made a stupid choice"
Old A's voice came from an instrument on the corpse at Mason's feet, and he said in a sinister tone:
"It's a pity that you activated the trap. I thought this could still be successful"
"Pa"
The generator was crushed by Mason's foot.
Everything that needs to be said has been said, so no matter what Old A wants to say, the captain is not in the mood to listen anymore. (End of chapter)
