By the time Mason crossed the world's gate to Osborne's tower exhausted, the members of Team K were already waiting for him in the large office that had belonged to the Sandman.

Everybody is there.

Including Poison Ivy Girl, who has just joined the team, and supernumerary member Colypso.

They've all heard the terrible state of affairs in the hands of the Justice League, and all can understand the terrible risk of such a thing happening at this time.

However, when Mason walked into the office, some of the sick Catwoman still got up and forced a smile and said to Mason:

"Happy birthday, little one."

"Huh?"

Za Kang, who was smoking a cigarette, raised his head, looked at the expressionless young man in surprise, and said:

"It's your birthday? Why didn't you say it earlier? So that I can order a cake on the way here to express my hypocritical wishes, and to add some joy to this terrible situation. ”

"Please, John."

Mason glared at him and said:

"It's the greatest blessing for me to keep my mouth shut today. Okay, I know what everyone is thinking, don't waste your time, let's get down to business. ”

He stood in the middle of his office, looked around, and said:

"We have to save Charles, that's the tone! And it's not just my personal commitment and desire to protect the players, it's also a real necessity.

I just spoke to Batman on the phone.

He told me to tie my hands and promise the Justice League that we would keep us safe, but we all had soul curses on our hands, so we knew there was no point in their protection.

But I also know from him that Charles was not injured or tortured, and that the guys were still busy cleaning up the debris of the world in space, and the interrogation of him would begin in a few days. ”

"It's useless."

Za Kang shook his head sadly and said:

"Wonder Woman's lasso of mantra went to Charles, and it wouldn't take him a few minutes to get the bottom of our story.

Even by the most lenient criteria for triggering curses, the Kite Man is dead.

The Justice League's spellcaster allies couldn't handle a curse of this magnitude, so once they started interrogating, Charles's death was only a matter of time.

Worst of all, I'm not sure if it will affect us if he says anything about Team K.

Mason, you know that the last time we took the plunge we almost triggered that thing, it's not a rigid oath constraint, it's very 'smart' in terms of triggers in that realm. ”

"So we have to be fast!"

Mason crossed his arms, squinted his eyes and said coldly:

"John, Selena, you two and I will go to Wayne Manor in a moment, we need to find the information and data of the watchtower in the Batcave, so that we can figure out how to act quickly when we get there."

"You're crazy!"

This time it was not the grumbling Zakang who refuted it, but Barbara, who was resting on the sofa, and the bat girl with a towel on her forehead raised her head and said:

"Mason, I know you're in a hurry, but calm down, the place in the watchtower is in Earth's orbit! Maybe we can get in, but we don't want to come out as soon as the security alert is triggered. ”

"That's right, Mason, we all know you're in a hurry, but don't worry about it yet."

The two buckets, whose upper body was covered with bandages, tried very hard to get up from the wheelchair, but he tried several times but couldn't do it, so he could only hold Alice's war knife and said weakly:

"The League of Assassins has many plans to attack the Justice League, but even if they are crazy, Yoyogu has never thought of invading the watchtower, where there is basically no place to return.

Not to mention that there are at least two official members of the Justice League stationed there at any time, and their high-level data encryption alone is not something that ordinary people can solve.

It was a 'fortress' built by Cyborg himself as the data center, and it was theoretically impossible to be breached. ”

"You also say it's theoretical, but it's definitely not the same in practice."

Under the surprised gaze of others, Mason took out a cigarette from Zakang's cigarette case, held it to his mouth, flicked his fingers to light the fire, and said in a dumb voice as the smoke splashed:

"The Ultra program that Barbara used can get rid of Anim Zola, and it's just a copied subroutine thread, which means that if we can get the full Ultra copy program, the Watchtower's security network can be brute-forced.

As for how to get out after entering

Hey, why are we coming out? ”

As the team watched in amazement, Mason flicked the ash of his cigarette and said:

"Have you forgotten something? When the Six-Headed Snake Squad was blown up by Da Chao alone, their world gate fell into the hands of the Justice League.

The thing was kept in the watchtower along with all the other outsiders' belongings.

There is a high probability that the Justice League has not yet cracked the characteristics of that door, and now the reorganized 'Six-Headed Snake' is under the control of the old Green Goblin, as long as that door is not broken, it is our 'safe passage'. My friends, you don't really think I'm in a hurry to come up with a suicidal plan of action, do you?

The fact now is that rescuing Charles from the Justice League isn't as hard as you think, and as long as we can get into the watchtower, it's half the story.

When the time comes, take Charles and evacuate from the World Gate, and it will only take a few seconds to get back to the Osborne Tower.

If you act fast enough, they won't even be able to react. ”

There was silence in the entire office, and Captain Jack had opened the bottle to celebrate, but the perceptive Catwoman and Zakang glanced at each other, and the big sister pursed her lips and said:

"'We'? You mean, you don't participate in the action? What are you doing? Mason! Make it clear! ”

"Someone has to stay on the surface to attract the attention of the Justice League and the spellcasters, and that's the only way to create an opportunity for you to slip into the watchtower."

Mason spat on the smoke ring, grabbed his penguin umbrella and played with it in his hand.

He looked around and said:

"Who else but me can do this? I'm the captain, and I deserve to be the most difficult part of the plan. The battle against the conquerors in the apocalypse also gave me some confidence in my armor.

I can hold them back. ”

"You're really crazy!"

Zakang stomped on the cigarette butt fiercely.

He was not only relaxed that Mason did not throw him, the strongest player of the theoretical K team, out of the top tank at this time, but also felt that Mason's wave was really a bit overbearing.

He said:

"Your armor has been torn down by that Bizaro! And I don't think that fake bastard is a match for Superman at all, and Dachao can handle you alone! Not to mention Batboy's two-faced bastard."

"Wow"

Mason twists the handle.

A green kryptonite speartip popped out of the top of the penguin umbrella, illuminating Mason's cheek.

He stroked the chic little thing, looked at the stunned Zakang, and said quietly:

"Who did you just say can up alone?"

"!"

When he saw the kryptonite war spear, Konstantin instantly understood, he gritted his teeth and said:

"You've been going to have a turn on those guys, aren't you? But don't forget, in addition to the Justice League, you'll also have to face spellcasters.

There is a high probability that Doctor Fate will be on the field in person.

A spellcaster of that level doesn't even need to make contact with you to restrain you, and you're clearly lacking in magical power right now. ”

"Am I stupid? Will stay in Gotham and fight them to the end? ”

Mason shook his head scoffingly and said:

"How long I stay on the ground depends entirely on how fast you move in the watchtower, and if you're fast enough, I'll be able to get out of it sooner. So it's not about how good I am, you know? John.

The key is you! ”

He removed the burnt cigarette butt and extinguished it in the glass of water behind him.

He looked at Zakang, put his hand on his shoulder, and said:

"You lead the team this time, John, I won't interfere with your command, it's up to you to do whatever you want. Whether or not I live to meet you depends on your abilities.

Of course, if I'm unfortunate enough to hang up, you'll take over as the captain of Team K.

It's up to you to decide what you want to do in the future.

But my advice to you is, don't trust the Stars, and don't trust Mr. Hunter's group too much. The Hunter himself may be trustworthy, but the guys behind him are a bunch of bugs. ”

"You can't go alone, Mason."

Catwoman suddenly got up, walked over to Mason, and said in an unquestioning tone:

"I'm staying here with you, I'm almost done talking to Venom, I've made a pact with it, and I'm now physically fit enough to withstand the symbiote's parasitism.

I can't leave you here alone!

Nor can I allow you to have a life-and-death contest with the man I love the most in his city. ”

"Not yet!"

Mason shook his head and refused:

"You are not allowed to use Venom now, until I have finished researching and refining it, I have just come up with a new idea that will allow you to gain more power while effectively curbing the parasitic modification of the symbiote on you.

That's a 'safety valve'.

You'll have to go to the watchtower with John, and you'll have to split up to be as productive as possible.

Everyone else has their own tasks, including Barbara and Two Buckets, and I know you're tired right now, but listen to me, you have to be involved in this as well. ”

"Don't say it, Mason, we get it."

Barbara took off the towel from her head, and said sickly:

"If you can do this for Charles, it means that if we can count on you in the future when we face the same dilemma, we can also count on your divine soldiers.

That's not a bad thing, and you've got your plan to this point.

We don't have any reason to say no more. ”

"Now, the three of us may not be able to help, but as long as you need it, we will do our best to help!"

Captain Jack patted his chest in promise, and behind him, Angelina, who held the vial containing Queen Anne's Revenge, nodded earnestly.

And Lady Elizabeth, whose eyes were red and obviously crying, sniffled and said in a hoarse voice:

"We owe you a favor that can never be repaid, Mason, and we will obey your banner!"

"Good!"

Mason nodded, and finally looked at Poison Ivy, who looked at him and said:

"Charles could have left me and fled, but he left me with hope of being alive. When he pushed me through the gates of the world and chose to stay behind against Superman, whom he couldn't defeat, he said, "I'm worth more to Team K than he is."

I owe him a lot, and I don't like to owe favors.

I'll help. ”

"Then rest, let's move the night after tomorrow!"

Mason looked at his watch and said conclusively:

"John and Selena and I went to Wayne Manor to 'deliver', that conqueror is so hot that we might be able to throw him on the Justice League as a nuisance."

With that, Mason turned and walked out of the office, and when he pushed the door open, he saw Spider-Man and Daredevil sitting in chairs waiting for him in front of the aisle.

Before Mason could speak, Old Peter took a sip of his coffee and said:

"You can't refuse our help this time, can you? Mason, you sound like you're going to fight a dangerous guy to save your friends. ”

"Charles Brown has helped the city, he has helped us, and he means more to the world than 'friends' can contain."

Lawyer Ma, who was wearing red coquettish little sunglasses, leaned on his blind cane and said in a humorous tone:

"Now that he's in trouble, maybe he needs a lawyer, can I nominate myself?"

"I can't say no."

Mason shrugged his shoulders and said:

"Well, I do need two outsiders who have nothing to do with Team K to help me wrap things up. Don't worry, both, I promise you that no one will die in this operation, and that your principle of non-killing will not be undermined.

But you're probably going to have to spend some time in my world.

You will not be able to return with it after you have passed the World Gate, or you will be cursed with souls.

But if all goes well, then the 'friends' over there will probably soon be able to find a way to get you back, after all, one of them is a speedster who can travel between worlds without relying on the world's gates and only on his feet.

So, relax, and think of it as an otherworldly sightseeing trip. ”

"Cool!"

The old spider shook his finger in a good mood, and he brushed his messy hair, and said:

"I was just about to meet the Batman you've always admired when my little daughter heard stories about him somewhere.

She's always wanted a signed drawing of Batman, and I can't let my little one down. ”

——

While Mason was in full swing to rescue the Kite Man, in the cell of the watchtower, the captured Charles would be sitting in the dark room with a remorseful face.

He was taught a lesson by Superman because of the fierce "arrest", not only his cool vulture wings were dismantled to pieces, which would make his nose and face swollen and his whole body hurt.

The kite man was actually very annoyed that he could suddenly play the role of "hero saving beauty" at that moment, and the poison ivy girl was so powerful that she didn't need to save herself.

All right.

He admits that he does have some admiration for the green-skinned little sister villain, but that shouldn't be the reason for his terrible choice.

"I guess I'm crazy."

In the darkness, Charles beat his face and said:

"Maybe it's because I'm infected by the boss.,I always feel like I'm doing the right thing.,It's obviously a third-line villain.,Actually has a weird sense of mission without fear when facing Superman.。

Hell yes.

Well, don't come to my rescue!

The bastards were ready to lure the enemy deeper. ”

He felt sorry for himself for more than ten minutes, and then he was about to change his head and get up to sleep for a while, but when he turned his head, he saw the indifferent sculpture-like old man standing outside the cell in the dark, maintaining his coolest and most indifferent posture and staring at him.

This caused Kite Man to immediately erupt into the "bat PTSD" common to Gotham villains, and suddenly he had a panic attack and fell to the ground.

"You! Don't come here! ”

He screamed.

The old man looked at the guy in front of him who was frightened by himself, and he said in a hoarse tone:

"They will soon be with you, your secrets, your ends, your means, everything will be revealed until all the truth is exposed to the sun."

"Don't you think about it!"

The kite man shouted:

"I'm not going to say anything! I will never betray the boss! ”

"Huh"

The old man chuckled softly and slowly retreated into the darkness, the action alone was enough to evoke some of the most terrifying memories that the kite man had hidden deep in his heart.

In the darkness came the voice of the old man, saying:

"You'd better be like that."
