Old A's affirmative reply that there was support reassured Mason, but he didn't expect the support to come so quickly.

Just as Mason had placed Reverse Lightning in the suitcase factory and returned to the deck with Harley and Zod, Catwoman, who was supposed to go to Paradise Island with Talia but turned back halfway, immediately stepped forward and said to him:

"Zakang just reported the special situation, he said that the door of the world we have placed in the Osborne Tower is shaking, and there are many strange connection requests.

He could only tell that one of them belonged to the Afterlife, and Judy had given us their identification code.

However, the rest of the strange requests came from Mr. Hunter's teams, such as the Ex team and the three teams of Aegis, Defender, and Punish, who had just entered the Hunter's vassalage.

Even the half-crippled Six-Headed Snake Squad in the hands of the Old Green Goblin received an order from the Star Castle.

Zakang contacted them, and they said that they would enter this world in an hour at the latest and complete the construction of twenty transfer gates, counting the two small goods in our hands and the hands of the afterlife team, we now have a total of twenty-two transfer doors. ”

Catwoman looked at Mason suspiciously and said:

"And Mr. Hunter also said that he will be there in person, and even the Star Castle will allocate some resources to support this unplanned transfer operation, and currently plans to complete the rescue of this world within 72 hours.

And the source of it all is you, little Mason.

You tell my sister honestly, did you participate in some strange force behind my back, otherwise there is no way to explain that Ling's appeal can be so strong all of a sudden. ”

"Well, it's hard to explain."

Faced with Catwoman's series of questions, Mason pretended to be stupid and said:

"Maybe it's because we're lucky?"

"Hmph, don't say it if you don't want to."

Catwoman crossed her arms and pouted:

"You don't know what your own luck is! However, it is a good and perfect ending for this matter to come to this point, and I won't ask too much about the superfluous.

I have a suggestion though. ”

She looked left and right, and whispered to Mason:

"Although Team K will be stationed in Osborne Tower in the future, it is equivalent to giving up our home world as a base in disguise, but I think about it and think it's a bit of a pity to give up like this.

Why don't I take Jack and them back to Gotham for a makeover and continue to host the Glacier Bar? By the way, act as a connector between you and Bruce, we need to leave some eyeliner over there. ”

"You just want to go back and enjoy the world with your master, you feel indebted to that man and the addition of Talia is stressing you out.

After all, only a woman can truly understand who her opponent is. ”

Mason suddenly pierced Mistress Selena's little abacus, he waved his hand, and said:

"But it's not impossible, but we'll have to wait until this is over to see if we can get some special gadgets from the Stars to keep the Glacier Bar absolutely safe, or I won't dare throw you over like that."

We're too eye-catching over there right now, and even though Bruce helps finish it, if those guys don't keep looking, it's only a matter of time before you're exposed. ”

"And it is."

Catwoman sighed regretfully and said:

"Oh, I was dragged onto a thief ship by you, and now I'm reduced to an old aunt who can't go back to her home."

"Don't make a fuss, you're having fun by yourself."

Mason reassured:

"I'll settle this, can I help coordinate the affairs of Paradise Island now? By the way, help me look at Talia. ”

Hearing that she could make trouble for her rival, Lord Selena immediately became interested, and she waved her finger and stepped into the shining Hermes rune next to her, allowing herself to turn into a streamer of light and teleport in the direction of Paradise Island.

"Mason, are you worried about what Talia is doing?"

Harley, who was next to him, rolled her eyes and whispered:

"Do you want me to help you get rid of her? I may be able to draw some ideas from Mr. J's past and we can create a little 'accident' for her.

Little Damian may be sad for a few days, but time and Aunt Martha will always heal him. ”

"You're the best friend for me."

Mason glared at Hallie, who was out of her mind, and said:

"Didn't you take your medicine today? Or did Quinn replace you again, don't be so vicious, Harley. ”

"I'll try my best."

Hallie shook Mason's wrist and put it to her heart, saying:

"Whatever you say is what it is, I'm obedient. But I feel like my heartbeat is not normal, can you help me take a look? ”

She had a teasing smile on her face, one of encouragement, but Mason coughed and withdrew his hand, and he pouted, and Harley turned her head to look.

The gloomy old lady was now standing in the shadows behind them, looking at them faintly.

"Hey, no matter what world you're in! The batboys are so annoying! ”

Harley, who had been disturbed by the good things, screamed angrily, took a sip of the palliative agent at Mason's advice, and angrily turned away with his two vicious dogs on his shoulder.

She's really smart.

She knew that the old lady would definitely have something to talk to Mason about, so she left the space to Mr. K.

"It's rare to see such a sensible good girl."

Thomas Wayne stepped out of the shadows, watched as Harley drove the two big dogs to make a series of chickens and dogs jump and disappear around the corner of the deck, and then said to Mason in a dumb voice:

"Aside from her slightly crazy personality and mental uncontrollability, this girl is a good assistant, but perhaps you need to keep her on a collar and keep the chains in your hands.

But she's obedient to you and has been pleasing you, so it's not difficult. ”

"But it's not like what a Batman should say."

Mason complained:

"I don't want to take advantage of Hallie's dependence on me to do something bad, I owe something to her, and of course, as an old gentleman with a mentally ill wife, I will refer to it a little.

Are you here to talk to me about where you're going? Don't worry, I promised you to meet Bruce, and I've always done what I said. ”

"No, that's not what I'm thinking about right now."

Thomas Wayne took the activation key of the Fenrir Warframe from his belt in the house, returned it to Mason, and whispered:

"I want you to think carefully again about taking me and Martha out of this world, especially Martha, who I doubt will react to seeing Bruce.

I didn't even dare to think about the consequences of letting her near him.

She's gone crazy, Mason.

There was no cure for her.

And me

I'm not really normal, years of rage, hatred, indifference, and killing have made me no longer able to control the darkness in my heart, and I have long been out of step with the world of normal people.

Perhaps it would be best to leave us madmen who have been distorted by the world to live and die with this world.

I'm thankful that you let me see Damian before the end came, and I was reconciled to fate and relieved to learn that the Wayne bloodline was alive and well in the other world.

I can finally welcome my demise without resentment.

Maybe I shouldn't have been there in the first place. ”

"No, it's not the change of the world that changes you, Thomas."

Mason explains:

"I asked Barry Allen, who had a premonition that the entire Speed Force Matrix was about to collapse, and he restored the world to the situation it was seventeen years ago.

What you have experienced is not made up by a speedy one.

You are the most authentic you now.

The only difference is that you didn't meet me seventeen years ago, and now that I'm before you, I don't want to be a messenger of hope, and I don't want to use these things to blackmail you.

But the truth is, your own world may be about to collapse, but Bruce needs your help. ”

He paused, and said to the old lady who was silent in front of him:

"The death knell in my team has told me where he came from, and there are eyeliners of the Stars in my world, and they are eager to plot an invasion of my side.

Just wait for the aftermath of the third shock to dissipate, and the massive invasion will be on the agenda, and Bruce and his friends will have to fight the malevolence from the Dark Star Sea.

Thomas, they're weak.

They need help.

I'd love to help them, just as I have helped other worlds, but the truth is, we need more companions and the power that hides in the shadows.

You can't join the Stars!

I don't want to send your Destiny any more candles that can burn majestically, but there is another way for you to join the controversy that is about to begin.

I can't put all my eggs in one basket, so your faction is my go-to plan.

Sending you over isn't just about reuniting the Wayne family.

I want you to lurk in my world and gather strength as a third party, so that you can complete an unplanned descent when we need help. ”

Seeing that the old lady was still silent, Mason took out his notebook, flipped to the latest page, tore it off, and handed it to the old lady.

The latter took it and glanced at it, and said in surprise:

"Well, that's a bold plan, and I appreciate you thinking so highly of me, but I don't think that bastards like Diana Prince and Arthur Curry, who you defeated, would be willing to do my bidding.

Actually, I don't even have the confidence to control Martha. ”

"Then you'll have to make a plan from now on, Thomas."

Mason Says:

"I'm not asking you to help me revise this plan, I'm telling you that's what you're going to do.

Talia's father, Rejaegu, had always longed for Bruce Wayne to lead the Assassin League he left behind, and the ambitious woman Talia did not deny this.

I want the League of Assassins to be controlled by you, so you'll have to get rid of Thalia first, and then I'll give her a job that's more suitable for her.

Diana, Queen of War, and Arthur Curry, Mad King of the Seven Seas, will be your war dogs, Martha Wayne and her elite Arkham Criminals will be your evil brains, and the Hardened Skeleton Program will build an impenetrable web of data intelligence for you.

Damian Wayne, your little grandson will assist you every step of the way.

He needs a suitable elder to teach him, and at the same time, he needs to experience and grow, and his bloodline and the Demon Leader Sword in his hand are the best blessings for your legitimacy.

You see, I've been planning this from the beginning. ”

He paused and said to the old lady:

"I know you're going to promise me, Thomas, and I know you may not like the arrangement, but you're going to do your best to do your best.

Because you know that your actions are protecting your son while protecting that world.

You've already lost him once, and you would never want to lose him a second time.

And this is my gift to you. ”

Mason slipped back into Thomas Wayne's possession the Fenrir Armor activation key that the old lady had given him earlier, and said:

"The first authority of the Fenrir Warframe prototype was transferred to you when you piloted it to beat the Reverse Lightning, and Deraman left a full combat database for the Cyborg program to receive.

You'll soon have your own Vengeance Batmobile and Vengeance Fighter, and I'll be making you a new set of Bat suits and weapon accessories.

You'll be Gotham City's second Batman, a more cruel, ruthless, and fearsome Batman.

You will gallop through the night sky of Gotham with your son.

You can teach him a lesson, you can help him, whatever you get along with, I don't interfere at all and I don't have the ability to interfere.

My only request is that when K-Team returns to our homeland at some point in the future, I will see a terrifying army that can crush all invading enemies!

And you!

Thomas Wayne, the Dark Knight forged by wrath and vengeance, is the best commander I have chosen for my Gotham Servants. ”

This was said loudly, the old lady couldn't find any reason to refute at all, Mason was telling all his thoughts, and Rao was moved by the old lady's heart.

But he still adhered to the principle of duplicity that the men of the Wayne family always have, and deliberately said in a dumb voice:

"What if I refuse? You know, Mason, I didn't kill those criminals because I enjoyed the killing, I just had to, but now, I've lost that reason. ”

"Simple."

Mason took a step back and glanced up at the clown aunt above deck in a purple suit with her long green hair flying through the air.

He waved his hand to Lady Martha, who was "looking at the scenery", and said to the old lady:

"If you refuse my invitation, Thomas, I will change the name of the main body of the project from 'Thomas Wayne' to 'Martha Wayne', and replace the whole text for Grandma Martha's eyes, I believe that Martha, who is willing to pay whatever it takes to protect her precious son, will not hesitate or compromise in carrying it out.

I also knew that if she was allowed to do it, she would most likely choose to incinerate Gotham City to ashes overnight in order to protect Bruce Wayne.

And there's a good chance that no one will be able to stop her from doing it.

So, for the sake of the people of Gotham, who are already suffering, can they get a good night's sleep tonight, will you? You see, I've even picked out your location in Gotham.

It's in the same location as your casino, and even the floor-to-ceiling windows are exactly the same. ”

He shrugged his shoulders and said:

"You can look out at the whole city with Madame Martha, just like a play, and pick out how it's different from your Gotham.

I've even prepared a new outfit for the Steward of Oswald who is loyal to you.

He could replay the role of 'Penguin' in that city, as if I hadn't been there at all.

Only I am gone

Those who are wary of me can truly put their minds at ease, and only when I truly hide in the darkness can I discover where those malicious eyes that look at me come from.

Stealth action, this is the tradition of the bat family, it is our tradition. ”

The old lady did not refute again.

He went over the brief plan Mason had given him, and after a few moments, he reached out and removed the overly dark Vengeance Knight's mask from his head, revealing his face as a middle-aged man who was no longer young and had suffered the vicissitudes of life.

Pointing to the wrinkles and gray hair on his face, he said:

"One last question, I'm getting old, Mason, I've been taking 'miracle hormones' to strengthen my body and ruining my health.

How do you solve this problem? ”

"Huh"

Mason pulled his hands as if by magic, and more than seven or eight bottles of injectable liquids of various colors were placed in syringes of various shapes in front of the old lady.

The evil alchemist introduced it to several treasures:

"The Super Soldier Serum that comprehensively strengthens physical fitness and gives superhuman physical strength and stamina, the Green Goblin Elixir that works for a short time but has good effects and side effects are also weakened by me, the Warrior Injection that is used to temporarily strengthen and grant special abilities, the Isu Serum that is blended with my own serum, and the appropriately weakened version of the Superman Booster, etc.

There's something for everyone, Thomas.

If you can wait, I'll be able to give you more options when my research into symbiotes moves to the next stage.

It's just old age.

It's not a hassle for alchemists, in a word, as long as you're willing to do it, I can guarantee that you'll be healthy until the day you voluntarily retire.

Think of this as an 'onboarding bonus'.

I'll reimburse you for your medical insurance later, Thomas, don't worry about anything. ”

These words made the old lady choked speechless, and he shook his head and said:

"I need a Robin."

"Me, me, me!"

Damian, who was hiding and eavesdropping, rushed out with his hands raised and shouted to his grandfather from another world:

"I can be your vengeful Robin! I've been training for this for years, give me a chance Thomas, uh, I mean, grandpa? ”
