31. If this continues, Mason Cooper will die soon

In the speeding spider car, Harley is tasked with jumping into the suitcase factory to find Mr. K to inform him of the bad news of the annihilation.

However, after looking around, I found Mason sleeping soundly on the forge table in the seventh-floor rest area of the suitcase factory, which had been divided into ten floors.

In front of Mr. K's eyes was a restored Mjolnir Forge Hammer.

Compared to the previous one, the Thor's Hammer felt like it had been refurbished, and after incorporating the inscriptions and repairs made from Loki's bones, it seemed to be reborn.

The extra shards of cut urugin were set aside, and the nascent hammer could still be used in combat, but it was clearly no longer a perfect weapon.

Seeing that Mason was sleeping soundly, Harley couldn't bear to disturb him, she knew very well how tight Mr. K's schedule was every day, and he must be very tired.

is so tired that I don't even have time to kiss and stick with a beautiful woman like myself.

However, at the end of the situation, Harley still reached out to wake Mason up, but at this moment, the hat on the workbench suddenly protruded a blurred face and shouted:

"Don't touch him, Hallie, this is no ordinary sleep. He had just completed his 2,000th Isu artifact, and was in his slumber communicating with the newly unraveled Isu sages in his bloodline.

This process can take several hours. ”

"Oh, what about the outside?"

Hallie was a little numb for a moment.

She looked at the hat and looked to the hat of wisdom for experience, and the hat heart said I don't even know what's going on outside, what can I do?

But at the moment, as a representative of wisdom, it clearly cannot say that.

So the hat thought for a moment, and said in a voice full of wisdom:

"You can't rely on Mason for everything, Hallie, you should learn to solve problems on your own, didn't Mason appoint Barbara Gordon as the lieutenant on this trip?

Why not leave it to her to take full charge of the problem at hand? ”

"yes."

Harley felt that what the hat said made sense, so she ran out to pass the news and quickly ran back, the hat looked at her and returned, and said suspiciously:

"What are you doing back? He needs to be quiet now. ”

"I know, I'm here to protect Mr. K."

Harley grabbed her brightly painted kinetic pistol and placed it outside Mason's break room, and she asked:

"Hat, you just said that Mr. K completed the 2,000th Isu item? What does that mean? Is this some kind of weird game? ”

"It's hard for me to explain to you, Harley, it's about Mason's contract with the ancient Isu civilization."

The hat bent the corner of his wizard's hat, pointed to something on the edge of the tool, and said:

"Lo and behold, that's what he just finished, the Isu suit he made just for you, and he was going to give it to you as a gift the next time he's alone."

"Hmm"

Harley leaned over and saw that it was a beautiful outfit, very delicately made to be similar to Catwoman's suit, with both flexibility and close-fitting materials.

Harley held her heart in her hands and tilted her head to feel warm for the "little surprise" of the little sweetheart.

After a few seconds, she suddenly turned her head and glanced at Mason, who was lying there sleeping, she licked her lips, unbuttoned her coat, and said to her hat:

"As long as you don't wake him up, right? Hat. ”

"What do you want to do?"

The hat sensed something was wrong.

But it couldn't be reminded, so it was covered by the coat that Hallie threw away, and Harley, whose eyes were flashing like red hearts, stepped forward and hugged Mason and laid him flat on the ground, and said while moving his body:

"Hurry up while it's hot, of course! Don't worry, I'll take it slow and won't wake him up! No peeking! Hat! I warn you! ”

——

Over there, Harley was hiding in a magic suitcase and doing bad things that couldn't pass the trial, and Barbara, who was told the news, didn't abandon her duty.

She put away the lizard Shigtan.

Unleashed a Zeta Octadet armed aircraft designed for assault and combat, with superior firepower and defense, pulled Hawkeye and Logan up, and led them and a large number of drones to the accident site.

Neither old man refused the call-up.

While Hawkeye is preparing for the assault, the old wolf is also doing psychological construction.

He kept stroking his fists, as if he was hesitating when he really needed to fight, how much power could Wolverine, who had been sleeping for seventeen years, exert himself?

A guy who can wipe out three Kryptonians and two superhumans in an instant, even before the war, is a super powerhouse, and it stands to reason that it is impossible for such a person to wander in the wasteland without attracting attention.

Where did such a powerful guy jump out?

"Dlaman, can you get temporary access to the Fenrir Warframe?"

In front of the control console of the octagram aircraft, Barbara, who was ready to attack, asked the onboard AI, and the old driver AI in its normal form immediately replied:

"In accordance with the taboo principle established by Mr. Mason, the control of the Fenrir Armor can be transferred to Passenger Four if Passenger One is currently unable to move.

Passenger information is being downloaded pre-loaded into the Warframe database, please wait.

The list of covert affairs and the operation of secret weapons are being decentralized. ”

"Secret weapon?"

Barbara was stunned for a moment.

She checked the permissions unlocked in front of her, and said suspiciously:

"How did I not know that Mason had a secret weapon for this operation? What is this thing codenamed 'BOOM'? ”

"Passenger access is sufficient, details are unlocked."

Delarman switched to an electronic voice with no fluctuating tone, and showed a document in front of Barbara's eyes, which was really startled when she saw it, and even made the Batgirl exclaim.

She jerked her mouth over and looked at the documentation floating in front of her.

Mason is actually planning to blow up the world?

And he really brought with him the secret weapon that could accomplish this goal, that doomsday bomb made by the Atlanteans from the world of war.

It's true

"The Fenrir Warframe is ready! Ready to pop up! ”

Delaman's shrill reminder brought Barbara back to her senses, and she took a deep breath and prepared for the attack.

However, when the Zeta Octet, which looked like a real "flying coffin", approached the "crash site", the eagle eye, who had been on guard, suddenly exclaimed.

"No, Barbara, disarm the attacking stance!"

The old hero turned back and shouted:

"That's not the enemy! That's a friend! ”

"Friends?"

The bat girl said suspiciously:

"Have we destroyed our own friends? This is how you wastelanders greet each other? ”

"There should be a misunderstanding here."

The old wolf, who had done enough psychological construction to re-enter the battlefield, breathed a sigh of relief, he put down the telescope and said to Barbara behind him:

"That's Black Bolt, one of the former members of the Illuminati, and the weapon Project X where Mason came to the wasteland to find his background was finally approved by him.

He is the king of the Inhumans.

As far as I know, most of the time a pacifist, and our people are fine.

They were just knocked unconscious. ”

"This is even more outrageous, I really can't imagine how powerful a strong man who captures three Kryptonians alive at a time must be."

Barbara immediately reactivated the biomonitoring devices on her teammates, but the armor and devices on the five unlucky eggs were almost destroyed in the violent energy explosion just now, and they couldn't be restarted at all.

The black-robed man standing on the edge of the smoky crater on the ground looked up and looked at the futuristic flying machine slowly falling overhead, he reached out and pressed his hood while waving his hand to the sky.

As a sign of friendship.

Behind him, the three Kryptonians and the Blue Beetle and the two of the Fire Storm lined up, and it was really no big deal, but they were hit the head and entered a forced vertigo and coma.

"Click"

The hatch, thick enough to withstand the small missile fire, opened, and a heavily armed Barbara jumped down, holding the key to summon Fenrir's Warframe.

Hawkeye, dressed as an old wolf and a ronin, then jumped out.

Clint, who knew sign language, stepped forward to negotiate, and the two old friends first hugged each other, and then after a quick sign language exchange like a ninja seal, Hawkeye walked back.

Barbara was checking on the situation of the team members, and the old man squatted beside her, pulled down his mask, and whispered:

"The Black Bolt King said he came to observe us on behalf of the entire Inhumans, and that observation was in effect when you entered this world.

He said he was only forced to fight back in self-defense, and told us that Attilan was ready to meet us.

In addition, there is a mysterious man in Attilan who desperately needs to meet Mason.

Black Bolt says it's one of Mason's 'creators'! ”

"Attillan? What is that? Sounds like a city? ”

Barbara asked, confused.

Hawkeye nodded and said:

"It's the city of Inhumans, who have lived there since time immemorial.

The city has advanced technology that allows it to move around, and it's easy for the Inhumans hiding in it to escape a nuclear war with their city.

I really didn't expect to get the chance to step into it again in my life.

It was probably the last city on the planet left intact, and I can assure you that we are safe there. Of course, the choice is yours to decide whether to go or not, Barbara.

We're just making suggestions. ”

"You just said that there is a creator of Mason in that city?"

The Bat Maiden glanced at the Black Bolt King, who was talking silently with the old wolf in sign language, and she whispered:

"How credible do you think this statement is?"

"It's hard to say."

Hawkeye pursed his lips and said:

"But we should go over and see, the Black Bolt King himself certainly didn't just invite us to be a guest, he may have something to ask for, but we don't know what he really thinks until we get there."

"Good!"

Barbara nodded and said:

"Then let's go over and see, how do we get there?"

"Wait a minute."

Hawkeye got up and gestured to the Black Bolt King, who nodded, took a step back and activated one of the devices in his hand, and soon a prismatic energy portal tore through the space and appeared in front of everyone.

Barbara helped her team into the Zeta octave to rest, and as she followed Hawkeye through the door, she asked:

"What is this Black Bolt King's abilities?"

"Voice."

Clint replied in a whisper:

"The most terrifying sound in the entire universe can wipe out a city with a whisper, move mountains and reclaim the sea with a whisper, and shatter a star when it roars.

But your Kryptonians are also powerful.

It's the first time I've seen people who have made Black Bolt helpless, and look at them, they don't even have any injuries on their bodies, and their defense is almost as good as Hulk's. ”

"But they still wiped out, and this reckless defeat will make Mason very unhappy."

Barbara sighed and said:

"Some of these guys suffered later."

A few hours later, when Mason rubbed his waist and walked out of his suitcase, Barbara was already waiting for him.

"I felt like I had a fight with She-Hulk in my dream, and I was punched in the face by the other party."

Mason rubbed his head and whispered a whisper to the bat girl.

His head hurt a little.

Probably because the [Forger I.] of the Isu talent has finally grown to [The Forger II.], and the unlocking of a large number of advanced Isu knowledge makes him feel like he has downloaded a database to his brain.

He'll need some time sorting out these newly unlocked things.

However, when he saw Barbara's complicated expression and the super low pressure of a group of people not far away, Mason realized that something was wrong. He learned from Barbara about the cause and effect, and then he raised his eyebrows and said:

"That's good, in the face of a fierce man like the Black Bolt King, you can still get out of the whole body, it seems that you haven't let go of the practice of ability recently, which is a good thing, let everyone know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, so that your self-confidence will not burst to the point that you really think you can push the world.

Are we in Attilan now? ”

"Well, the city is unexpectedly good."

Barbara walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked at the royal garden, which grew in the sun, and some birds she had never seen flying around in the lushness.

Further away is the landscape of the entire city, much like the temperament of a large city that is not so prosperous but reveals a sense of technology.

This and the apocalyptic wasteland outside are two extremes of the spectrum.

"Are you really not angry?"

The bat girl looked at Mason, who was enjoying the scenery beside her, and she whispered:

"We just suffered a defeat."

"Not angry at all, really."

Mason turned his head and explained:

"Letting a bunch of recruits beat Black Bolt is something I can't dream of, even if you bring the Justice League here, they will definitely not be able to beat him.

Do you understand what I mean?

It's not the team's fault, and while their recklessness is certainly not to be encouraged, as a commander, you have to review your own failures.

I've got to talk to Black Bolt right now.

When I get back, I'm going to see a 4,000-word review, and if it's not deep enough, I'm going to have to go back and rewrite it, and you'll have to go back with Grayson and Gordon when it's over.

Seven days at least!

Alas, alas, no refusal!

This is also part of the commander's punishment for dereliction of duty, so talk to them for me. ”

Mason patted the old lady on the shoulder, turned and walked out of the royal palace left for them, rubbing his back and whispering something as he went.

The Batgirl shrugged her shoulders and was about to go to chat with the team, when she suddenly noticed the magic suitcase slam open, and then a peach-colored Harley panted and climbed up from inside.

"What did you do? Make yourself like this? ”

Barbara looked at Harley in amazement, whose hair was scattered and sweat-soaked on her forehead, as if she had fought with an elephant.

"Pull me, my legs are a little soft."

Hallie held out her hand and said to Barbara.

After she was helped out of the suitcase, Harley smugly gestured three fingers as she threw a bubble gum into her mouth as she faced the bat girl's increasingly suspicious gaze!

She whispered:

"I'm going to have my own life, I'm really tired of moving by myself, I urgently need to sleep! I'm going to get eight hours of sleep, don't bother me. ”

After saying that, the weak-legged Harley carried up the stairs with her arms, and the Bat Girl walked up to the team members who were generally ugly because of the failure, she crossed her arms and coughed, looked around, and said to everyone:

"I've talked to Mason and he thinks this failure is force majeure and doesn't intend to hold everyone accountable, but we can't pretend it didn't exist.

Now, take a moment to recap, guys.

We need to learn strength from our failures, and this must not happen again! ”
