7. You stay here and don't move, I'll go start a Resident Evil and come back
Mason leaves the Queen Anne's Revenge with Zakang and the frail female pirates in the "eye salute" of a group of Barbossa faction pirates. When they re-stepped onto the dock, the crowd of onlookers let out a cheer like a ghost crying wolf.
They seemed to feel like they were witnessing a miracle that was not too big or small.
These two wizards not only knocked on the door, but actually came back alive and brought back a "captive", which seems to fully prove that these two have a great background.
Therefore, when they returned to the bamboo building on the pier, the pirates and islanders along the way took the initiative to make way for the two of them.
Mason proved that it was really easy to win the respect of these "Darwinists of the sea".
As the young man walked up to the bamboo building, he reached out and picked up the cursed gold coin and put it in front of his eyes, this thing was much larger than ordinary gold coins, and it was like a pendant ornament on the tip of his finger.
It should be extremely pure gold that makes it very weighty.
However, it was made into a very delicate and intricate appearance with a unique mold, especially the large Aztec skeleton in the center of the coin, which made it look evil.
The skeleton is surrounded by pictogram decorations like sun's rays, which is typical of the Native American civilization, who generally worshipped the sun.
Mason stared at it, and the information label quickly popped up:
Gold Aztec Curse / Gold Oath Breaker / Gold Devil
Quality: Excellent Cursed Item, Outstanding Craftsmanship
Utility: Grants the toucher a cursed [Immortal] form in which the life force lock will not encounter death (except for attacks with purifying powers), and will be subjected to increasing mental stress until it goes completely insane.
The curse can be lifted after returning the holder's blood-stained gold to the Curse Chest.
This item can be used as a spellcasting item.
Producers: Montezuma II, Hernando Koster
Item description: They pin the hope of peace, but are eventually tainted by the outrageous betrayal of the Oathbreaker, who is resentful of the dead clinging to the gold coins, and they abandon their weakness and will no longer allow themselves to be taken away from their homeland.
Prompt:
This cursed item is valid in any world where the Aztec civilization exists.
"Ding"
Mason's fingers flicked.
The tumbling cursed gold coin flew into the sky with a crisp sound, slashing diagonally, falling in front of Konstantin, and was grasped by the skilled black mage with magic in his hand, without direct contact with the skin.
"Are you happy now?"
Mason glanced at the smiling Zakang and said:
"There's 881 of them."
"Well, I'm starting to like my new job from the bottom of my heart now."
Finally in a good mood, Konstantin played with the cursed coin, and instead of the fear that others had seen it, it was filled with a unique joy.
He said:
"The 882 gold coins that witnessed the collapse of the empire and the demise of the population are enough to pay off most of the 'debts' I owed when I was ignorant before. But why would I do that?
There's obviously something more to this cute little thing. ”
"I'll take some then."
Mason Says:
"The rest is at your disposal. I'm not going to give it to my teammates, the curse power on this thing will do more harm than good. ”
"Cool, you can be more generous, Mason."
Konstantin seemed to have completely indifferent to the small disagreement between the two of them, and he whistled and said:
"I will follow you more and more willingly, and if you keep being so generous, I will even support you unconditionally and sing praises for you.
It's that easy to please me, Mason. ”
"Guy... Aren't you going to use it to make a potion to cure the Black Death? ”
After listening to Mason and Zakon's conversation, the frail female pirate who had been brought out of the Queen Anne's Revenge shook her body.
She pursed her lips, which were cracked by lack of water, and whispered:
"You're lying to Barbossa?"
"This girl really can't speak."
Mason glanced at her, grabbed her by the arm and dragged her up to the second floor, and when he opened the door, he saw Catwoman doing yoga in the room.
The young man pushed her and threw her beside Selena.
"She's over to you, Selena."
The young man moved his finger and said to Catwoman:
"I'm going to 'go home' once, four days at most, is there anything I need to bring you?"
"I don't have enough sunscreen, the sun in this place is so poisonous."
Selena whipped her cattail whip and dragged the pirate escaping from her feet and said to Mason:
"By the way, bring me some cosmetics or something, oh yes, I wrote a letter to Batman explaining in detail why I was leaving for the time being, and handed it to him for me.
With his character, he would be suspicious if I didn't take the initiative to contact him again. ”
"I need a new jetpack, boss."
The kite man, who has been in charge of collecting various supplies on Turtle Island, also raised his hand and said:
"If you can, make me a few more backups."
"What about you? John. ”
Mason noted down the needs of the team, then looked at Zakkang, who was already sitting on the side and began to study the cursed gold coin, and said:
"Do you need me to help you tell Xiaozha about safety?"
"You've done me a lot of help by staying away from her, remember, the farther away the better!"
Without looking back, Konstantin threw over a folded piece of paper and said to Mason:
"This is the address of a small shop in Gotham City that specializes in all kinds of magic supplies, and when you go, report my name and help me buy something. The composition of these coins is interesting, and I'm going to take a closer look.
Also, bring me a few packs of cigarettes.
As long as the silk card, the more the merrier. ”
"Okay, that's it."
Mason retrieved the notebook in his arms and took the cloak from Catwoman and placed it on his arm.
He crouched down and looked at the female pirate bound up by the cat's tail whip.
This lady is very beautiful, a typical South American style beauty, with a very well-proportioned figure and because of her perennial sea life, she is as vigorous as a brown leopard.
But the wind and rain also made her hair far less delicate than Selena's, and being locked up by Barbossa for several days made her so weak that she didn't even have the strength to draw a knife.
"Angelina Teach! Blackbeard's only daughter, one of Jack Sparrow's more than 200 lovers, first mate of Queen Anne's Revenge, and a strange woman who can easily live to 150 years old by drinking the spring of immortality and will not age until she dies. ”
Mason stared into her eyes and pinpointed her identity.
He said to the female pirate:
"By getting you back from Barbossa, you owe me a favor. I am not involved in the father-killing feud between you and Barbossa, and it has nothing to do with you in your attempt to reclaim Queen Anne's revenge.
But you have to repay this life-saving kindness.
I know you have Jack Sparrow's voodoo doll, which your father made himself, and I know that your father has some knowledge about voodoo.
You can spend the next five days playing a nautical game with this beautiful big sister next to you, and if you can give me what I want when I come back, then I will definitely give you a good reward. ”
As he spoke, he reached out and pinched the female pirate's mouth, pulling a blue potion from his belt and pouring it into her mouth.
The female pirate struggled and thought it was poison, but when Mason let go of her hand, she felt her frail body regain her energy quickly.
After doing this, Mason stood up and waved goodbye to his teammates, then walked to the humble door of the bamboo building, pinched out the identity card of the K-team leader with two fingers, and pasted the key of the world on the door made of bamboo.
It was as if some kind of projection magic had been activated at this moment, and a brass-colored doorknob appeared on the bamboo door in the faint light.
Mason twisted the handle and pushed the door open.
Under the shocked gaze of the female pirate, there was already a swirling curtain of light outside the door that should have led to the beach, and she watched Mason disappear into the curtain of light for several seconds before recovering when the bamboo door closed on its own initiative.
"Where did he go?"
The female pirate, who had been regained some energy by the vitality potion, stood up and looked at the three strange people in the room, searching for weapons that could be used, and asked:
"Are you really wizards?"
"Yes, of course we are terrible wizards."
Catwoman stepped forward.
She crossed her arms and looked at the well-founded pirate in front of her in a womanly manner, and after a few seconds, as if she had seen an unbearable flaw, she said to Angelina:
"There's still a lot of room for improvement in your figure, the waist-to-hip ratio is almost perfect, and you need to practice yoga to strengthen your strengths, but your skin is so bad and your hygiene habits are terrible.
This seriously spoils the charm you should have, but that's okay, my sister can teach you these important things in the next few days.
Charles!
Where's my boat?
The pirates of the K-Fleet are sailing! ”
"Uh, Selena, our ship was wrecked by the Queen Anne's Revenge."
The kite man spread out his hands and waved it and said:
"The boss seems to have forgotten to find that Barbossa to ask for compensation, and we don't have a ship to use now."
"Then go buy it!"
Catwoman rolled her eyes, crossed her waist and scolded like a queen:
"The money here means nothing to us, go to town and find a random pirate and buy a decent ship, didn't you hear Mason? We're going to find the treasure left by the great pirate Blackbeard here in the next few days.
And this kitten-minded chick is our best guide..."
"Smack"
The cattail whip in Selena's hand was whipped up and hit the female pirate Angelina on the wrist of the knife she was secretly about to pick up.
"John, are you going?"
Selena glanced back at Zakang.
The black magician's attention was on the gold coin in his hand, and he said without looking back:
"I'm not interested, go ahead, baby, men are always busy with their careers. I've brought back a couple of voodoo corpses outside, you can bring them on the boat, and I'll make you a few control charms in a moment.
Need I cast a spell on this lady?
I don't think she's very submissive. ”
"No need!"
Catwoman glanced at Angelina, who had her head down, and she moved her fingers with a charming smile and said:
"I'm the best at training cats, this girl will be a very good nautical kitten, I decided, she's the first mate of the pirate regiment of Fleet K.
Hey, kitten, tell my sister where is the treasure left by your father? ”
Angelina glanced at Selena.
The woman's instinct told her that the beautiful sister was a very dangerous figure, and she did not resist but replied very obediently:
"It's nearby, a day away with a tailwind, but in a very dangerous place, I buried it in a hill near Port-au-Prince.
That country has been completely overrun by ghouls. ”
"Zombies, little meaning."
Catwoman nodded, and said to the Kite Man:
"Charles, my second mate, do you hear me? We're going to venture into a zombie land, prepare heavy firepower in advance, and take out all the magical potions Mason left behind.
This is Team K's first mission in this world, so it's a nice thing to complete, OK? ”
"Yes, Captain Blackcat."
Kite Man is very good at this kind of "role-playing" game because he has followed the clown before.
He stood up, bowed politely to the captain's lady, and went out again to beckon the old one-eyed sailor, who was messing with a few women who had been taken in, to buy a ship and prepare to sail.
A few hours later, at noon.
The Kite Man has spent a fortune to get everything in order, and the heavily armed Catwoman is ready to embark on her own adventures in this world.
Before she left, Zakang gave Selena the voodoo corpse control warrant and whispered:
"Mason and Barbossa's cooperation is not solid, beware of his pirates sneaking up on you on the road to coerce Mason into giving in, and abandon the ship when things are not good.
I know Charles has a vehicle there to take you back safely. ”
"Huh? When did you change your mind? ”
Selena looked at Zakang in surprise and said:
"We've been in contact before, John, this proper style doesn't look like you, what? Convincing Mason in just a few hours?
Or did my little brother really hold the handle of your old fox?
It's really unusual. ”
Konstantin shook his head and said:
"Selena, do you feel that Mason has a lot of secrets, such as how he knows so much about the world, and some of my secrets?
As far as I know, you were the first of us to meet him.
Then sometimes we have to talk about it. You don't want to see you toyed with Mason's applause, do you? ”
"I think he's pretty good."
Catwoman said with a straight face:
"I trust Mason more than you, so I refuse this discussion."
"I didn't say he was bad, I was happy with his generosity."
Za Kang picked up a cigarette and said quietly:
"But he can get very aggressive and 'dangerous' in certain situations, and I really think you sometimes have to learn more from the pesky Batboy.
It's good to be kind to others, and it's okay to make more friends, but it's stupid not to prepare. ”
"If you don't want to do bad things to him, then why worry about little Mason's aggressiveness?"
Catwoman smiled strangely and asked rhetorically:
"And in our current situation, shouldn't we be happier the captain is? Collect your thoughts, John, the abacus beads have collapsed in my face.
I'm not going to do anything boring with you. ”
---
On the other side, in the office on the top floor of the iceberg bar in Gotham City, which was being renovated, Mason climbed out of his suitcase, patted the dust off his body, and looked back.
A few minutes later, the suitcase was shaken and toppled by Mason.
The door to the world, which had been torn down from the wall of old K's apartment, had also been snapped out of it and fastened to the wall of the office cubicle by Mason with a percussion drill.
In this way, the magic suitcase is freed up.
The young man nodded in satisfaction, picked up his suitcase and left the bar to return to his cabin, taking a moment to rebuild an enhanced version of the kite man's jetpack.
The drawings of this thing he had memorized by heart.
But Charles can't always be left on missions with a fragile kite on his back, so Mason plans to spend some time upgrading his henchmen's equipment in the future.
He methodically spent nearly three hours in the shop on engineering and alchemy, and then took the time to smelt some magical metal, intending to use it as a material for the next stage of engineering.
After nightfall, Mason walked out of his small shop and first went to the store to buy a box of Sika cigarettes for Zakang, then flagged down a taxi and came to the vicinity of Falcone's Italian mafia stronghold according to the "Gotham Gangster Terrain and Stronghold Diagram" drawn by the Kite Man for him.
He changed into an inconspicuous outfit and wandered the streets of the neighborhood, figuring out the terrain before hiding in a nearby alley.
The invisibility cloak was draped over his shoulders, the delicate birdcage was held in his hand, a starry sky mask was fastened to his face, and the silver-gray hood was brought up and he disappeared into the hazy night in an instant.
Mason glanced at the sky, where the bat lights hadn't come on yet, and the man's night watch hadn't yet arrived.
It's a good time to act.
Gotham, Sin City, the zombie-wielding dark wizard is back!
