After hours of driving, the spider cart loaded with people finally arrived at today's camp site at nightfall, a wasteland gathering site nearly a hundred kilometers northeast of Hammertown.

It's just as chaotic and dirty as Hammer Town.

But the good news is that there are no bandits in the vicinity, as Team K has entered the "Ant Gang's" sphere of influence.

According to Hawkeye, the "Wasteland Hundred Dawns", this area is the "most orderly" place in the entire wasteland, and the Ant Gang rules it in a cruel and efficient manner, rejecting all outside forces.

Although they are still poor and difficult, as long as they have peace of mind to pay their monthly contributions, they will at least not have to worry about dying.

The Spider Cart stopped in front of the only "bar" at the gathering point, which had been packed with boxes of compressed biscuits and purified water by a deep-pocketed Barbara.

Hawkeye, who had just endured the "torture" of the bones, got out of the car with difficulty with the support of the old wolf, and faced Barbara who came to greet her, Harley dragged Ashley Parker, who was covered but still struggling, and told the bat girl everything they had encountered in the canyon.

When she heard that the great filial girl in front of her was trying to kill her biological father to show her strength, Barbara's eyes were full of disgust and disdain when she looked at Ashley.

The people of the Bat family don't hear this the most.

However, for humanitarian reasons, Barbara reached out and ripped the tape off Ashley Parker's mouth, the wasteland bully chick didn't care about the other people's eyes on her, and immediately after she could speak, she looked at Mason as he walked towards the bar.

She shouted in a dumb voice:

"You are a man of power! You're the leader, and I want to join you! I want to share your strength."

"I'm not interested in being crazy."

Mason didn't look back and waved his hand and said:

"Hallie will check her to see if she has any psychological problems, and Barbara will take care of her tonight, and she will beat me up if she dares to be a demon."

"No, you can't trust Clint Patton!"

Ashley Parker shook her head and shouted:

"That man lied to you, he left me and my mother and said he wanted to bring hope back to this hopeless world, and he went to the no-man's land of South America to find the secret treasure of the Avengers!

He's back now, and he's found, Chief!

This news is enough for you to accept me, it is the most valuable treasure in this wasteland."

"Bang"

Barbara, who couldn't listen anymore, slapped her on the neck and dragged the crooked spider girl into the second floor of the bar like Hallie.

They had to treat her wounds and give her a bath.

Looking at her dirty mud monkey look, it's like rolling in a pit.

As for the "Avengers' Treasure" that Ashley just said, it didn't stop Mason, and Hawkeye's delivery was in his bag.

If Hawkeye did find the so-called treasure, it must be in that chest.

But Mason is not interested in any of that right now.

He said hello to the team members sitting at the cramped, dimly lit bar enjoying a weird "wasteland dinner" before heading to his room on the second floor.

He took out the alchemy workbench, and then took out the Magneto helmet found by the canyon gangs.

He's going to crack the secret of this helmet as soon as possible.

It's really not ordinary, it's definitely the most valuable loot Mason can find on his "homecoming" trip, and most importantly, it's a memento for all mutants.

The dark red helmet was designed by Magneto to be very elegant and powerful, and it can be seen from this detail that the old Wan of this world is also an absolute scene person.

After being washed with Stark's mech cleaning liquid, Mason placed the dark red helmet in front of him, which was clean and odorless.

Info tab pops up:

Helm of the Black Emperor

Quality: Legendary Forged Item, Perfect Craftsmanship

Traits: Psychic Protection, Permanent Magnets, Energy Enhancement, Never Wear

Special effect:

One. Psychic Isolation:

Magneto created the helmet to fight his best friend and nemesis, Professor X, and it was re-smelted with a magnetic field to achieve a special arrangement at the atomic level to give the item its insulating powers.

While wearing the helmet, the user is immune to all mind control, mind peeping, and enchanting interference, and remains awake at all times.

Two. Permanent magnet:

Magneto's special abilities give his helmet, which he never leaves his body, also have certain characteristics.

While wearing the helmet, the user's energy attacks (including magical effects) are enhanced due to the fact that they are stabilized to an indestructible magnetic field, making it impossible for the user to be tracked and located by any electronic device.

When attacked by an electromagnetic weapon, the helmet grants the user an [Attack Deflection] effect.

Maker: Magneto "Eric Lancheel".

Item description: Although Lao Wan never takes off his helmet, Magneto is a gentleman who is so elegant that he is strict about his hygiene habits, so you don't have to worry about any hair oil and dandruff left on the helmet.

Prompt!

When the forging skill reaches Lv4, you can try to learn the smelting recipe for the helmet's special material.

"Hat, I think you might be retiring."

Mason played with the not-heavy but textured helmet in his hand, and whispered to the Sorting Hat on the other side of the workbench:

"Look at this helmet, it's much more powerful than you in every sense."

In the face of Mason's ridicule, the Sorting Hat protrudes a vague human face from his hat, and responds with a slight sneer:

"It's powerful, but I don't believe you can take it with you in the shower, and the Occlumency I gave you is long-lasting, besides, will it be a phantom?

Does it have the same elegant form factor as I have?

Can it have a thousand-year-old history like mine?

Anyone with a brain knows which hat you should choose between me and it."

"You're bullying this Black Emperor's Helmet and can't speak."

Mason complained.

Of course, he was just joking, Lao Wan's helmet can be used in battle, and it is uncomfortable to wear it in normal times, but the soft material of the sorting hat is more comfortable to wear.

"The current forging skill is Lv2+1, which is still one level away."

Mason stroked the helmet in his hand and thought:

"This kind of crafting material that can weaken or even isolate the power of the mind is very rare, and it must be mastered as soon as possible, and this material must be added to the suits made for the members of Team K in the future, so as not to be secretly shadowed.

It's no secret that those who play with psychic powers are all unguarded, and not every psychic manipulator is as ethical as Professor X.

It's hard to run into a crumb like the purple man. ”

"Someone approaching the door, Mason."

The hat snapped in a reminder, and the captain nodded, placing Magneto's helmet in his hand, pulling out a silver pistol from his waist and pointing it at the door.

A few seconds later, there was a knock on the door.

"Hello, Mr. Mason, I'm Sonny, the owner of Stark's Bar, and I'm bringing you a supper."

A flattering voice sounded outside the door, and Mason blinked and said:

"Come in."

The door was pushed open, and the fat boss with a plate walked in, his face full of flattery immediately frightened at the sight of the black muzzle in Mason's hand.

He raised his hand with the plate and shouted:

"Nope! I didn't mean it, I even used the best ingredients in the freezer to cook myself, I just wanted to get closer. ”

"He's lying."

Mason's hat at hand said coldly:

"His mental activity is quite intense, not just because of fear, he has other purposes, maybe you should give him a shot to calm him down."

"I say! I say it all! ”

Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Sonny Stark, the owner of Stark's Bar, moved his fingers with a sad face and some nervousness, and said to Mason:

"I am. I'd like to ask you for a favor, unknown big shot.

I just heard your team complain about something during dinner, and if they're not kidding, then you're all from another world, and you've saved a few people in Hammerfall before.

I would like to ask for your mercy to take me and my family out of this wasteland.

I mean, leave forever!

I've had enough of this damn place, it has taken everything from me and turned me from a poor upper-class kid to a pathetic loser. ”

Faced with this request, Mason was noncommittal.

He looked the chubby boss up and down, and noticed that although the guy was down, he was still trying to maintain what little dignity he had left.

At least the clothes are worn out but washed cleanly, and they even try to maintain the habit of wearing shirts.

His hygiene habits are clearly better than 99% of the guys in this wasteland.

"What's your relationship with Tony Stark?"

Mason asked.

Sonny was a little nervous, but honestly stammered:

"He's my uncle, and my grandfather was a distant cousin of Howard Stark, and the family moved here and has been working for Stark Group.

Well, it's a job, but it's actually a salary for nothing, and although it doesn't have any real power, at least the quality of life is great.

I spent my childhood in a villa in California, and it wasn't until I was twenty-two years old and ready to really start spending time when a damn nuclear war happened.

My uncle Tony died in the chaos, and my aunt was a terrible tragedy. ”

"Still not telling the truth!"

Mason, who picked up the penguin umbrella and activated the golden apple, could feel that Sonny was still hiding something.

But he didn't scold again, but said softly:

"You're getting a ticket to the Otherworld, Brother Sonny, I think you should be more honest, what do you say?"

"I, I didn't mean to hide it."

Sonny gritted his teeth and said:

"Please come with me, there are some things you must see with your own eyes, although I am not a good person, I do not come to pray for you just to live well."

"Oh?"

Mason came interested.

He wears Lao Wan's helmet, wears Isu armor and wears a shroud cloak, which feels like incarnating Magneto Youth Plus, plus he also has a gravity ring, he can really live a Cos addiction when necessary.

He followed Sonny underground through a bar mechanism.

This subterranean area is quite large, and there are traces of precision machinery everywhere, and it looks like some of Iron Man's secret bases, but it is now apparently completely abandoned and used as a shelter and living quarters.

In the deepest part of this small base, Mason saw a biopod that was still running.

He stepped forward to look at the glass of the biological pod, and saw a dormant little girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a rather unique set of Mark series armor, but it was so broken that it was supposed to be badly damaged.

"This is little Morgan, Uncle Tony's daughter and my cousin."

Sonny stood beside the creature pod with some sadness, and said:

"She was the one who escorted us from the place where the nuclear war broke out, but she was also wounded by the pursuers sent by the damn Red Skull, and had to enter the biological pod to 'hibernate'.

There's no cure for her in this damn world, and I can only watch my cousin get weaker day by day.

I don't have any skills, I'm just a gentleman.

But I'm also a member of the Stark family, and I must protect her and find a way out for her and my family, and I beg you, Mr. Mason, to take us away.

The world is fucking hopeless! ”

"Why didn't you go to that transfer seventeen years ago?"

Mason Says:

"As Stark's family, they will not refuse your request for refuge."

"That's Uncle Tony sent us a message before he died."

Sonny hesitated for a moment and whispered:

"Uncle Tony said that all this is a conspiracy, let's not trust those outsiders, if I wasn't really forced by the cruelty of life, I wouldn't have chosen to believe you at this time.

You've saved people in Hammerfall, and I've met Mrs. May Parker.

She had lived here for a while.

She assured me that you were good people, and that's what made me up. ”

"Well, it's getting more and more interesting."

Sonny Stark's words made Mason's eyes narrow.

If he remembered correctly, the swordsman had told them before he sent them that this was the place she knew she had saved the Council of Hope before it had fallen.

The Hunter also said that the Stars would be a righteous organization for a while, and Old A was even more proud of it to try to convince Mason to change his course and follow him.

But now it seems that there is a sea hidden in this early "justice".

"I know I can't let you work for nothing, so I've prepared this."

Sonny saw Mason pondering, and thought that the mysterious outsider was thinking about whether to help his family, and although he was a failed bar operator, he was a businessman after all, so he gritted his teeth and took out his last hole cards.

That's a box.

When opened, a sophisticated device resembling a processor was revealed, and he said to Mason:

"It's Uncle Tony's stay at this base, and I don't know what it is, but little Morgan told me not to mess with it before hibernating."

"It's a data sandbox."

Mason was also exposed to a lot of high-tech, and he could see its usefulness when he looked at it, saying:

"It's a device used to run some special programs that can't be connected to the outside world.,This thing looks quite interesting.,I'll take it.,You go and pack your things up quickly.。

He said to the surprised sonny:

"I will give you two choices, one is the wasteland where there is still civilization, where life is hard but there is enough order and armament to not be too dangerous.

The other is a thriving society that is about to be invaded.

You can have a good time in it, fulfilling the dreams you didn't have to achieve when you were twenty-two, but at the cost of maybe encountering danger. ”

"I'll pick the second one!"

Sonny said impatiently:

"I've had enough of the damn apocalypse, I just want to indulge now, and I don't care how long I can live! But my family and little Morgan were going to be sent to the first world.

They suffered too much with the incompetent me.

They need a peaceful, undisturbed life to heal their wounds. ”

"It's a lot of requests, but it's accurate."

Mason took the processor, waved his hand at Sonny, and said:

"Go find Barbara, she'll arrange it for you, but you'll have to spend a few days in my suitcase factory, there's a nice house there, rest there."

As for Morgan Stark."

He glanced at the young girl in the biological pod, shrugged her shoulders and said:

"People with a background like her can't take care of me, and some people will do their best to save her."

As he spoke, Mason activated the sandbox processor in his hand, and a few seconds later a hoarse mechanical voice sounded from a row of small lights flickering rhythmically:

"Who are you?"

"Who are you?"

Mason asked rhetorically.

The latter, after a few seconds of silence, replied:

"My name is Ultron, and to be precise, the last copy of Ultron's main program after it was destroyed by a nuclear war and the network was wiped out.

It's your turn, stranger. ”

"My name is Mason, a B-Class member of the Stars Society, and the leader of Team K."

Holding the sandbox processor in his hand, Mason said:

"Can you tell me what happened that night?"

"Betrayal!"

Ultron's voice grew fainter and weaker as if he were running out of energy, and he said:

"A betrayal from the heart of the world, a stab in the back from someone he trusts most, Tony Stark and the order he has worked so hard to protect

The enemy is in the Illuminati!!

Energy energy is running out of power."
