50. Finally, Team K is going to destroy a world with their own hands
When Mason returned to the palace on a sad motorcycle that had just experienced an "emotional crisis", the three Kryptonians had already entered a weakened state due to the end of the reinforcement.
The superhuman potion that would have lasted thirty minutes only lasted for fifteen minutes of "enhanced state" for them, and its enhanced effect was far less amazing than that of Mason when he drank it.
This fully proves that the "edge diminishing" effect also exists in alchemy, it is easy to go from 1 to 90, but from 90 to 100 you can only slowly advance step by step.
"My stomach is so comfortable"
Biza Compass sat on the ground and rubbed his stomach with a dirty face, and when he saw Mason returning on his motorcycle, he shouted at him:
"It's like eating a very clean and delicious meal, bad enemy Mason, do you have any bad pills?"
"It's a rejection reaction, and there is no way to alleviate it with medication."
Mason jumped off the motorcycle, patted Bizarro on the shoulder, and gave him a concentrated dose of life and death water for him to swallow, so that he could fall into a deep sleep without having to endure his discomfort.
He then examines Zod, who has a vegetable-looking face, and Kara, who has pale cheeks, and it turns out that Superman still has a rejection reaction to Kryptonians, but the symptoms are much milder than when Mason was taking it.
Their sensations are presumably similar to diarrhea and gastroenteritis, and they are not expected to last long.
"The rejection reaction is mild, but the actual combat effect is good, and it seems that it is time to add Superman Elixir to the ration as your regular combat enhancer."
Mason whispered to Zod:
"How does this fight feel?"
"It's bad, I seem to have gone from being an invincible superman to an elite miscellaneous soldier who can step on anyone"
Zod replied honestly:
"Whether it's the Wasteland Hulk, or the Ghost Rider, or your adoptive father, I can't do anything about them, but to get beaten."
"It's not your fault."
After two battles, Kara, who was originally hostile to Zod, seems to have established some kind of "comradeship", she is supported by Barbara, and says to Zod:
"There's no way to take them like my cousin, Kryptonians have never been invincible, not to mention that we are still far from my cousin's level."
"Indeed, you guys are doing well."
Mason nodded.
He didn't expect that the intensity of the final battle in the final battle of this pioneering process would suddenly soar to this point.
Whether it's the Wasteland Hulk or the mad Ghost Rider, in their heyday, they are enemies that require the entire Avengers to fight.
If you deny the Kryptonians their combat power because of this, then you don't have to.
"Logan is still inside."
Barbara placed Kara and Zod in the spider cart to rest, then pointed to the area covered by the purple flames that were still burning in front of her, and said to Mason:
"Emma says she can sense the old wolf's breath of life weakening, but we can't pass through the flames of the Power Gem to aid him."
"Is he dead?"
Mason asked, Barbara shook her head, and then Mason was heard whispering:
"Then Logan doesn't need our help to have a little confidence in Wolverine, who has regained his fighting spirit, sme, there is only one possibility of his failure."
"You seem to adore Logan, which is a bad sign."
Emma Sr., the White Queen in a wheelchair, said to Mason:
"For a fighting style like yours that has begun to flourish in the realm of intelligence, Logan's usual reckless style of play will only weaken your strengths.
Over the years, Wolverine has suffered more failures and hardships than you might think.
Mason, your abilities. How does it feel? ”
Faced with the nominal "mother's" inquiry, Mason did not answer in words.
He raised his hand and put it into the gentle and drizzly weather in front of him, and controlled the rain that enveloped the city with his will, and soon opened the rain curtain that spread all over his eyes again.
Ticking and ticking, his will and senses were once again shrouded in the place where the rain fell, and the special weather that had always existed as a background for Mason's battles in the past could now be controlled, but Mason, who took the initiative to use the "Pray for Rain" skill, was not skilled, and it took him more than ten seconds to make the rainstorm weaken again to the level of a gentle drizzle.
"At present, the maximum coverage area is the size of New Babylon City, which is about one-third of Gotham City, and it can only be collected and released if there is a natural water source around or underground."
Mason sensed the moisture around him.
Feeling that he had become a natural "water search stick", he poked it on the ground, and the distribution of underground water sources within more than ten kilometers of Fang Yuan was clear to him.
This ability is definitely a good hand for geological surveys, but unfortunately it is difficult to use in combat at the moment.
"Being close to a water source gives me a significant increase in the energy I can manipulate, but now that I'm like a kid with a new toy, I don't even have a clue how to play with it."
He summed it up this way, without exaggeration or belittling.
Emma was very satisfied with this attitude.
She said:
"Don't despair, Mason, mutants are like that.
Even an omega-level mutant of Hu Tianhudi, such as the iceman, one of your paternal genetic sources, had to honestly start practicing from rubbing Xiaoice when he first woke up.
This is also the reason why the professor opened Xavier's Academy for Gifted Youth.
After all, with the exception of Logan and the Saber-Toothed Tiger, who spent hundreds of years polishing their abilities to the extreme, most of the Wild Path mutants have mastered their abilities quite poorly. ”
"I understand."
Mason nodded and said:
"It's obviously a force that needs to be learned, practiced and channeled, and it's very much to my appetite. It seems that in my busy schedule, I will have to take some time out to learn from you to discover and control your own abilities. ”
"Of course I'm willing to help."
Emma smiled a little and said:
"I was also one of Xavier's Faculty instructors and served as Interim Headmaster for a while, and I'll do my best to mentor you, Mason, but now, I feel like we should leave.
Black Bolt is ready to destroy the entire Weapon X base with a single angry cry. ”
"That's not enough, it's not enough."
Mason narrowed his eyes, waved his hand and said:
"This base is just a replica of the X-Men's manufacturing plant, and we destroyed it, and they still have enough resources to build another factory in another part of the world overnight.
Actually, I don't think there's just one base in this wasteland, otherwise they wouldn't have had to send tacticians like the Red Skull to stay here.
And the whole world has to be hidden from each other.
It's an 'axis of evil.'
We are not going to destroy the factory that shaped me, we are going to destroy the world beneath our feet, just as the swordsman who sent me wanted to see.
The world died seventeen years ago.
All it needs is a decent funeral that can take away all glory and loss.
I'm ready for it. ”
Barbara, who was beside Mason, sighed, she knew that Mason had made a plan for the destruction of the world before entering here by Druman when she was in a coma.
She whispered:
"We used to be discussing what to do if Team K was faced with a world-destroying order one day, but we didn't expect that the first time we exterminated a world, it was actually out of our own considerations.
But Mason was right.
A base that has been in operation for seventeen years means that they have a complete and mature system in their hands, and blowing up this base in front of them is not enough to change the reality that the mutants' power will be squandered by the Hopeful Council.
Only destroying the entire system can delay the time when this evil will be used again, and they want to find a suitable world again, and it will not be so easy to reorganize the mutant breeding factory in secret.
It is better to break one of his arms than to hurt his ten fingers!
I support Mason's approach. ”
Black Bolt King was also a little moved.
But he's too old, and his power has lost over the years, making it difficult for him to accomplish the feat of destroying the star alone, and Mason doesn't need the old king to dedicate extreme destructive power to it.
As Ghost Rider said, Mason has placed a bomb deep in the base of Weapon X.
"Open Attillan!"
He turned back to Black Bolt and Emma and said:
"Put in all those who have been separated from Neo-Babylon! For good or evil, they will always find their place in the new world.
The Hulk Gang's expedition brought the entire wasteland together to save time in containment, and we left as soon as containment was over. ”
The Black Bolt nodded, and pushed Emma into Attillan's energy portal without any delay, and soon the hidden city was activated again, projecting the entrance into the ruins of Neo-Babylon.
And the White Queen used her spiritual power to sweep across the ruins, guiding those who survived and hid in the chaos into this last city.
"Hey, little brother."
Father Banner, who was bound to the Sonic cage, was embarrassed, and while he was dressed as the "Fire Cloud Evil God", he shouted to Mason:
"You're going to destroy the world, aren't you? I sense from your confidence that you have the ability to leave me here, the aftermath of the destruction of the world is enough to annihilate me and the Hulk completely.
I'm begging you.
Let me die.
It should be to fulfill the last prayer of an old man full of evil. ”
"You have a mission of your own, Mr. Banner."
Mason glanced at him and said:
"There will always be a battle between you and the Hulk, and you will fight in that glorious battlefield until an irresistible death strikes.
That's your moment of relief. ”
"You're just trying to take advantage of me, little!"
Daddy Banner thrashed the sound cage, and his eyes were bloodshot and scolded:
"It's like seventeen years ago, in the apocalypse, the Red Skull used me and Hulk to kill Thor. I should probably wake up Hulk again and pinch you all here! ”
"You know you're being used?"
Mason pointed to the cage of the purple fire burning in front of him, and said to Daddy Banner with disdain:
"You and Logan both made a big mistake seventeen years ago, but Logan's response to it doesn't seem to be the same as you're bent on death, you were friends, weren't you?
Does it make you feel bad to learn from him?
It is the traitors of your world and the stars who have joined forces to create this tragedy that has affected everyone, and you are a victim.
So, please use your anger where it ought to be, Mr. Banner, who has indulged himself for seventeen years.
You're going to die sooner or later anyway, so what's the difference between being earlier and later? ”
"Do you know who betrayed us? Have you found out the truth about the turmoil of seventeen years ago? ”
Daddy Banner in the voice cage was stunned for a moment, and then asked:
"Tell me! Who is it? ”
"I'll tell you more when we get out of here."
Mason waved his hand and said:
"Now, be quiet, and don't trouble us and yourself."
With that, he took a few steps forward, and as Harley followed, Mason waved his hand, covering his fingers with the Black Death Sword suit, but the suit boss was clearly not interested in something as divine as the Infinity Stones.
Mason had no choice but to pull out the Divine Speed Brick again, intending to tear apart the flames of the Power Gem with another kinetic explosion.
The speed force is obviously a cosmic wonder at the same level as the Infinity Stones, and the collision of the two will annihilate each other's energy.
But before Mason could make a move, the purple flames around him quickly weakened and disappeared without a trace, and in the arena shrouded by it, the red skull was lying miserably on the broken ground, and the old wolf rode on him and grabbed the captain's round shield and slashed wildly at the Doomsday President.
The state of these two people is so miserable that it is impossible to describe it in words.
The Red Skull's armor studded with the Power Gem was torn open by Logan, and the villain who caused the end of the world with one hand had his legs and left hand torn off, almost becoming a human stick.
But Logan, who had the upper hand, was even worse.
The purple gem was clasped in the palm of Logan's hand with a melted Edman alloy, and the fire of power burned his flesh, and the self-healing of the undead was still in effect, but every trace of flesh that grew was ignited by the purple flame entrenched in the body.
Under the gaze of Harley and Mason, he was almost left with a skeleton focused on the Edman alloy fighting, and the power of the Infinity Stones even caused Logan's Edman alloy to be re-burned.
The alloy that covered the skeleton flowed like it melted, almost drowning Wolverine, and it was really hard to imagine the attitude in which the fight between the two men had advanced to this point.
"Kill me! Free me! ”
The Red Skull shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Hah, it's like being reborn from a cocoon, Logan.
Here release my wretched flesh and blood, and then I will return from death!
I will return to the world with a stronger posture.
I'm going to pinch you one by one to death, just like I did seventeen years ago, and you simply can't stop this, you pathetic mutant bastard.
Come, cut down this blade of vengeance. ”
He was provoking the old wolf.
The latter grabbed the blood-stained shield and lifted it high, and all it took was to smash it down, and the sharp edge of the blade would completely smash the red skull's head, along with the brain he had transplanted into his own skull.
The brain of Professor X, who belongs to this world.
The flames of vengeance howled for Logan to deliver the final blow, but the death-based warning from Magneto held the last string in his mind.
He was born out of anger, and over the years he had learned to live with it.
"Bang"
The blood-stained shield grazed the red skull's face, splitting his left eye open, and a trembling Logan stood up and spat bloody saliva at the stick beneath his feet.
"Phew!"
He bent down and lifted the red skull up, and said:
"You don't deserve a crisp death, it's a merciful forgiveness, and that will never come from me."
As Mason watched, Logan staggered out of the burning rubble dragging the remains of the red skull, flesh healing itself in the flames with every step.
In the Red Skull's irrational roar, he enjoyed the insults from his enemies.
It's like a joyful ballad.
He threw away the priceless gem of power in his hand and said:
"You deserve to experience the despair you have inflicted on us, to see with your own eyes the bankruptcy of all your plans, and to meet your end in fear.
This is the best judgment for you. ”
"Little sweetheart! What to do with this thing? ”
Harley used a box behind Mason to pack up the old wolf's discarded, blood-stained power gem, and she asked:
"Shall we take it?"
"Nope."
Mason turned back and took the box from Harley.
He looked at the rough stone with purple dots of light dancing in the box, and for a moment he did feel a trace of interest and longing for this thing the size of M beans, but then he closed the lid and looked at the ruined earth in front of him.
The rain behind him was dissipating, and he said to Hallie:
"It's a good treasure, and we need it to play its last role here, as the last memorial I left to my troubled hometown.
It's hard to do it once, right?
You can't come for nothing. ”
