37. Freeze! Don't go! --【20/50】
"Bang"
The vials that flew in the darkness were blasted open above the heads of a team of black-clad killers.
The exploding bottle caused the scattered liquid to spill in all directions, and the drenching did not have a petrification effect, but the intense paralysis caused the black-clad killers to tremble and fall to the ground.
Terrible paralysis is instantaneous.
It's like the nerves of the body are being cut off and cannot be controlled.
But it's also weakening rapidly, and they'll be back to normal after a maximum of ten seconds, the problem is that the attackers in the dark don't think they'll give them ten seconds.
Mason, who was clad in an invisibility cloak, did not choose to use his gun, and the glimmer of light on the collar pin of his collar constantly shone to prove that there were still quite a few people in the nearby woods.
Shooting in this case exposes yourself.
So he chose to settle the battle in a more brutal way.
Hagrid's Giant Hunting Knife was raised, wiping the throats of the low-level Assassins on the ground one by one, and after receiving five melee executions proficiency bonuses, Mason removed the batrang from the tree and inserted it back into his waist.
Throwing skills are obviously also a type of shooting system.
Therefore, Mason's Lv3 shooting technique also increases his ability to throw batarts, of course, the accuracy and lethality are not as exaggerated as bullets.
But it couldn't be more appropriate with an invisibility cloak and potion for this kind of nighttime assassination.
He raised his hand and pulled himself silently into the branch with a hook and lock gun, and drank another sip of cat's eye potion to get [Night Vision] to look around, and the free aiming frame of the combat aid quickly locked on to the next team of targets for him.
Those men were wearing professional night vision devices, but the aura of the invisibility cloak was magical.
In addition to physical collisions, night vision devices are also unable to capture Mason's ghostly movements.
This is the confidence of him to stop the ambush here alone, of course, there is also a very important reason to clear the relationship with the "three-headed dog", with the efficiency of Catwoman and Kite Man's actions, the zombie beast should have been killed near the Batcave, Mason doesn't want Batman to suspect himself again.
"Poof"
A paralyzing dart ejected from the launcher on Mason's left arm, stabbing the approaching black-clad assassin to the ground and receiving Mason's head as he jumped down, and the moment he turned around, another petrified dart was fired, petrifying the guy behind him with his katana drawn.
In the next second, the sharp hunting knife swung up and slashed gravel everywhere.
"Meat! Fresh meat! ”
A shrill scream soon rang out in the woodland near Wayne Manor, a familiar sound that made the young man frown.
Is this a killer crocodile?
He met this guy when he was saving Nightwing in Arkham Asylum, he was almost bitten to death by the three-headed dog Maomao, although he relied on flesh regeneration and self-healing to pick up a life, this guy should have entered the zombie by now, right?
The League of Assassins is really a vegetarian, and they dare to let him out to move freely?
Sure enough, when Mason stealthily arrived nearby, he saw a vicious and bloody massacre at a glance, and the killer crocodile was lying on his back with the killed black-clothed killer lying on his side.
And he himself was lying on a corpse and feasting.
As Mason expected, the killer crocodile's original green scales would have begun to turn gray and withered, and his massive body would also "shrink".
This is a clear sign of zombie transformation.
It is estimated that in another hour, this pathetic supervillain will become a difficult "super zombie" to deal with.
The forest smelled of blood everywhere, and the other black-clad killers were probably cleaned up by the killer crocodile who was about to go crazy with the stimulation of flesh and blood.
This kind of efficient killing efficiency made Mason a little unbearable.
If you only look at the results, this guy is his own person.
He leaned on the tree and set up a shotgun, aimed at the super villain in front of him, and pulled the trigger decisively when the killer crocodile raised his head.
With a muffled thud, a sniper bullet struck the mutated maniac's ear, blasting half of his skull open, causing his twisted body to shake and fall to the ground.
But there was no kill prompt, which made Mason's face change slightly.
The killer crocodile already has super self-healing and super stamina, and the influence of semi-zombie makes him eat a bullet and not die yet.
Mason narrowed his eyes and aimed again.
But at the moment of shooting, the pin on his collar glittered, and Mason decisively gave up shooting, rolling and falling on the branches.
At the same time, the same blue beam that had previously struck the Batmobile struck again, and the moment it touched the branches, it was frozen in crystal clear.
Mason reacted quickly but was still affected by the cold beam, and his entire left arm was frozen in the ice when he fell to the ground, and the cold added to his body made the invisibility cloak ineffective.
But the fire also ignited at the same time, causing the ice to melt.
Mason looked up and saw a guy in distinctive black armor, an astronaut-like helmet device on his head, and red test goggles coming out of the darkness.
He was carrying a backpack with a very high sense of technology.
On the chest of the armor there is a complex controller and hose attached to the helmet and backpack, the bare arm is a strange ice blue, and in the hand is a firearm that looks sci-fi and still exudes coldness.
Everywhere he went, the cold lingered, covering the weeds on the ground with a layer of frost.
This dress, this appearance state, made Mason recognize the identity of this guy at a glance, Gotham City's first-line villain Mr. Freeze, and one of the VIP customers of Arkham Asylum.
He had a lot of pomp and circumstance in the madhouse.
There's even a separate generator set to power his cell, which is kept at minus 10 degrees Celsius all year round.
"Don't move! Youngster. ”
Not as rude as the killer crocodile, nor as arrogant as the other villains, the former world's top thermographer is unhurried and polite in his speech.
It reveals a scholarly atmosphere that has not faded.
The only thing that makes people uncomfortable is that his voice exudes the meaning of freezing everything like his laser freeze gun, and thus appears very cold.
It's like ignoring all life.
"Your arm is frozen to ultra-low temperature in an instant, it will not cause you pain, it will only make your nerves die quickly, and now any drastic movement will make your arm and the steel in the cold temperature fragile and broken."
Standing five steps away from Mason, Mr. Freeze pointed the muzzle of his Freeze Gun at Mason, and said:
"I was forced to come to help the Assassin League, but I have no interest in killing, and I left you just to ask you a question, and if you can give me an answer, then I can help you unfreeze and get you out of here."
"Ask, Victor."
Mason lay on the ground and pretended that he couldn't do anything.
However, under the quiet cover of the demonic fire, his left arm had already regained consciousness, and with a flick of the light, the ice on the surface of his skin would shatter.
But he was intrigued by the conditions offered by Mr. Freeze, and he coughed and said weakly:
"You're in the ascendancy, so I know everything."
"Who cured Batman?"
Mr. Freeze didn't show any joy or any other expression, he still asked indifferently:
"The League of Assassins promised me a lot to win me over to serve them, and they told me that they had used an incurable poison to dethrone Batman.
But I just eavesdropped on Batman from their communications.
Who got rid of that toxin?
Tell me, young man, it's important to me! ”
"Let me guess."
Mason stared at Mr. Freeze and said:
"You're doing this for your wife? Do you think the man who cured Batman might be able to help you treat your wife's terminal illness? As you said, the Assassin League promised a lot of conditions in order to win you over.
One of them should be helping your wife, right?
I guess, they tell you they can get your poor wife out of illness and even back from the dead? ”
"Yes, they do."
Mr. Freeze said in a cold and polite tone:
"Also, I'm going to correct your statement, Nora is not dead! There is no such thing as a dead and resurrected word, be careful with your words, young man.
This is a 'grammatical error' that might irritate me. ”
"But you don't trust them."
Mason narrowed his eyes:
"Otherwise, there wouldn't be this conversation now, it seems that you believe in the Bat Family more than the villains who ran to Gotham to make a big fuss? Your style is a bit too inconsistent with your identity as a villain, right? ”
Mason's questioning made Mr. Freeze frown.
He lifted the freezer gun and pulled the trigger, and the blue cryogenic ray erupted again, but instead of aiming at Mason, he froze the killer crocodile that let out a low moan to get up from the ground.
This time, Mr. Freeze is much more ruthless.
The eerie ray continued to erupt for five seconds, freezing the killer crocodile in a large lump of chilly ice.
After doing all this, he put down the freezer gun in his hand and looked at Mason again, and said:
"You're right, I do believe in Batman more than the League of Assassins. Although I am the person I am now is due to him, it is a personal grudge between me and him.
My wife is innocent.
So, young man, tell me who cured Batman. ”
"We used the pure blood of the unicorn to dispel several poison mixtures mixed with the waters of the pool of Seralus, and it only took three days for Batman to be healthy and stronger than before.
This is not what you know to be a scientific medicine, but from the ancient alchemical wisdom. ”
Mason's left hand moved slightly, and his fingers pinched the batrang on his belt.
He said slowly:
"You don't seem to believe this, but it's okay, if you give me a moment, I can show you all this, including how I took out the potions to get rid of the other pursuers in the woods.
If you go over and take a look, you'll see that there are still a few stone statues left there that I saved Batman, Victor, as you can see I'm an alchemist.
As for whether the unicorn's blood can cure your wife's terminal illness, I don't dare to pack the ticket, it is not poisoning or curse, maybe she needs a higher level of medicine.
I mean, I'll have to at least see her first and see how she's doing. ”
"Oh my God, I wasted one precious opportunity and a precious few minutes of my life."
Mr. Freeze shook his head in disappointment and said:
"The answer I was hoping for was the word 'alchemy'. Oh, my God. Sorry, kid, but I have to serve the League of Assassins now.
Don't worry, it won't hurt. ”
And the moment he raised the freeze gun, Mason also threw out the batrang in his hand.
The two of them were only five or six meters apart, and their attacks were almost synchronized, but the flames burning on Mason's fingers and the batrang that was burning red and even melting made Mr. Freeze stunned for a few tenths of a second.
"Smack"
The hot dart plunged into the controller of Mr. Freeze's armor with precision, and its heat instantly disrupted the pathway, rendering his refrigeration armor useless.
Mason, who had put on his invisibility cloak again, jumped a few times in the chaos of the freezing rays, throwing a vial of petrification potion at his target and smashing it into Victor Fries' astronaut helmet.
The viscous liquid that was designed to shatter the fragile vial ran down the helmet, and although it was quickly condensed by Mr. Freezing's low temperature, it was undoubtedly effective.
The science-believing supervillain looks at his rapidly petrified body with a blank gaze.
He could have frozen Mason reappeared while his arm could still move, but instead of doing so, he dropped the Freeze Ray Gun.
Before his head and mouth were petrified, he shouted:
"I believe it! Help her, I'm willing to pay."
"I'm freezing to death!"
Seeing Mr. Freeze being petrified, Mason jumped quickly in place, swatting the ice chips on his body and mobilizing the magic fire to cover his whole body little by little, warming himself up.
He walked to the stone sculpture of Mr. Freeze, picked up the cold Frozen Ray Gun, patted the stone statue in front of him, and said:
"You're just petrified, but you can still hear and see, so I'll tell you, go back to Arkham Asylum for the rest of your sentence.
When we meet next time, I'll give you an answer if I want to help you and your wife.
I know your story, Victor, there's no doubt that you're a 'cold-blooded' villain, but your wife is indeed innocent.
Besides, I'm not welcome to your weapon.
That's what I'm in need of right now. ”
Mason placed the firearm in his hand, which was composed of a silver-gray special metal and an "energy canister" that shone with a faint blue light, in front of him, and the character card immediately gave a label:

Weapon blueprints and freezer recipe analysis [232 hours countdown]
"Even if the Batcave is destroyed, it's worth it."
Mason turned his back on the old K with the gun, got up with the freezer gun and made an aiming motion, and then took off Mr. Freeze's armed backpack and found that this thing was also a precision engineering item.
He shrugged his shoulders, turned his head to the stone sculpture behind him that still had a pleading expression on his face, and said:
"The petrification will be lifted in six hours, and you'd better pray that you've been sent back to Arkham by then, or you won't survive at room temperature
Well, that's a reminder to me. ”
Mason raised his freezer gun and aimed it at Mr. Freeze and pulled the trigger, and the dark blue rays spewed out for a full ten seconds to freeze him completely.
He stepped forward to take some samples of the body tissue of the frozen half-zombie killer crocodile, and then returned to the Batmobile.
Driving such an expensive car for the first time left Mason a little at a loss.
But he quickly adapted, and with the muffled sound of the engine, the black tank, which had broken three trees in a row but remained unscathed, leaving only scratches on its outer armor, was back on the road.
Wayne Manor is right in front of you, and the sound of gunfire from there should be the beginning of the show.
"I managed to deal with two supervillains on my own, which translates to how I don't think I'm a nobody in Gotham City."
Grabbing the Batmobile's button-strewn steering wheel like a professional race car, Mason slammed open the iron doors of Wayne Manor and slammed into the mountains behind this luxurious place.
That's exactly where the Bat Cave is headed.
While activating the Batmobile's fire support mode to make the miniature rocket nests pop out on both sides of the vehicle, he locked on to the target and still thought:
"I don't know what price they will give me if I register with the minion union now? Well, that big man is so fierce! The big and three young were all pressed and beaten together.
That's Bane, right?
Damian's children are also here?
What a bonus! ”
"Click"
The launch button is pressed.
More than twenty-four miniature rockets, under Mason's control, covered the bombardment, and threw the entire group of people in front of the bat cave into the explosion.
In front of the flames, the Batmobile swayed in a dashing swing, braked sharply, tore apart, and the flames raged and stopped in place.
The cabin slashed open, and Mason, who was carrying a freeze gun, jumped out.
He looked at the bat cave in the black hole in front of him, as if he had seen a peerless treasure.
Maybe the Assassins' attack wasn't all bad, so how could you have the opportunity to visit the master's "toy library" in the open?
It's not going well, and I'm sorry for Team K's participation in the war.
