56. I admit that I spoke a little loudly before, and now I will compensate you for it [8/10]

The meeting between the Divine Envoy Team and Mason had been scheduled a long time ago.

There is no flaw in the timing, there is no problem in the location, both parties are punctual and polite, the only fly in the ointment is that the current environment has undergone a "subtle" change.

According to Moon Knight's original idea, the moment of meeting at this time and place should be the time when the Gotham world is under the double attack of warlocks and conquerors, and it is also the time when Mason and the others need help the most.

In that case, he showed up as a strong A-class team to talk about conditions, and he could easily take Mason and negotiate a deal that would never be lost.

As Mason expected, the "messenger of the gods" was not a pioneer who stood firmly on the side of the warlocks, he had his own careful thinking, and the forces of the gods behind him also had a fairly "flexible" ethic, allowing him to act when the opportunity came.

The interests of the Divine Order and the interests of the Warlocks are in no way aligned.

Although they helped Warlock pass the invasion plan proposal in the Council, they obviously wanted to do some trouble, such as betting on both sides to hedge risks, and the best outcome was that Warlock stepped into the quagmire and was dragged down by the Gotham world.

In this way, the warlocks who need foreign assistance will have to give their benefits to the forces of the gods.

In short, it's all a bureau.

The plan was great and executable, but there was just one bad thing, the gods, including their messengers, made an empirical mistake.

Change is coming too fast.

A second ago, the Gotham world was laughed at and fell into the most critical moment.

And guess what?

People directly opened a big turnaround.

Not only did he kill the warlock neatly, but now there are three big guys who are trying to eliminate the cleaners and conquerors that still exist in this world like having fun.

The battle situation changed so quickly that the decision-making speed of the gods could not keep up at all, so naturally there was no time to adjust the strategy, and when the meeting time came, they could only push the divine envoy out head-on.

Without giving any strategy, let the Moon Knight come over to talk about things.

What they say is the decentralization of decision-making power, but in fact they are looking for a back-up.

"I guess if we can't come to a good deal here today, maybe in a few days, your head will be sent to my desk in the name of 'apology.'"

Mason, who jumped off the airbike, was very relaxed, he stepped forward to look at the Moon Knight in front of him, whose face was covered by a strange white mask, and while stretching out his hand, he whispered:

"They're terrified, aren't they? I wanted to use me or the Warlock to seek benefits for my own camp to get involved in the Stars Commanding Level, but I didn't expect to get away with it.

Maybe it was I, the 'bug', who was too aggressive and frightened the gods above the clouds? ”

"Huh"

The Moon Knight smiled awkwardly, shook Mason's hand, and said dryly:

"Don't think about it, it's just a meeting between the stars and colleagues, not as many twists and turns as you said. Speaking of which, isn't it an exchange of hostages?

Why don't you see Black Adam?"

"I've changed my mind, it's too risky to hand over a traitor to a stranger who doesn't know my own enemy."

Mason's expression turned cold, and he withdrew his hand from the Moon Knight's hand, saying:

"What? Are you not happy to see me change my hexagram temporarily? ”

How the fuck can I be happy?

Do you see the slightest hint of happiness on my face?

Hey, you don't need this eye to donate to someone in need!

The moonlight knight who was holding back the fire in his heart really wanted to take out the moon wheel battle knife and cut the bastard in front of him into a hundred catties of pounds, and then put cartilage into the lunch box, but he was really confident to speak now.

The warlock's tragic death was a wake-up call.

Just looking at the suspicious posture of the players behind him at this time, you can see that they are extremely stressed, for fear that Mason will call an unconventional boss to pinch them to death here as bugs.

Then the dry laughter sounded again from under the mask of the divine envoy's expressionless expression:

"Hehe, think about it carefully, my previous request is indeed a bit difficult for strong people, and you should consider it carefully. Now, I've brought your people."

With a wave of his hand, the Magical Mary in the back, Shazam's otherworldly sister, snatched the bruised Skrull Empress Vikran out of the air with a swipe of his hand.

The latter was apparently tortured and lost seventy percent of his life.

But apparently she was also conscious after proper first aid, and her injuries were not dying, and she even changed into a festive red dress to cover the blood stains on her body.

Empress Naskuru's green face was also at a loss at this time.

As a failed captive, she had no idea what was going on, and thirty minutes ago she had been hanging herself in a black cell, before the bastards rushed in and treated her and brought her here.

"It's a serious injury."

Mason frowned and looked at the Skrull Empress who was sent to him, he glanced at the Moon Knight beside him, and said:

"Is this the hospitality of the gods? I have sent my servants to you to discuss cooperation, and if you do not want to deal with it, you will not be able to deal with it, but you will torture my messenger with cruel hands.

Tsk, the two armies are at war, and they don't understand the truth of not killing them? ”

"Accident! It's all an accident. ”

Moon Knight waved his hand and forcibly explained:

"We regret this embarrassing 'diplomatic accident' and have given Ms. Vikeland adequate compensation and obtained her understanding.

Ma'am, do you have something to say? You're so silent now, as if we've bullied you. ”

He glanced at Vikland.

Empress Skrull touched a few filled bags around her waist and nodded to Mason, indicating that under the apology of the Divine Envoy Team "full salary" and "close to 100 million", the two sides had indeed reached an "understanding agreement".

"Well, since the parties involved are not pursued, it is rude for me to continue to entangle like this."

Mason snorted, casually took the Super Skrull Psychic Signet from his right hand and threw it to Empress Vikland, which was promised before.

The latter immediately held this artifact in his hand, which was enough to control the fate of all the Skruls, and very obediently handed over all the bags on his waist to the captain, and then silently stepped aside.

For her, the affair ended perfectly.

Although he was arrested and beaten, although he still doesn't know what happened in the middle of the way to change the situation, but now the result is good, and everything is fine.

"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, let's get down to business."

The Moon Knight rubbed his hands, completely no longer mentioning the "hostage exchange" mentioned before, and as if he had farted more than ten hours ago, he looked at Mason and said:

"We need to talk about two things, one is that the Divine Messenger Squad will be in the Stars after that. Well, I mean, there's a problem with the New Stellar Society. The second is to convey the congratulations of the gods to the future Lord of the Stars! ”

"I guess you said the same thing to the Warlock thirty minutes ago?"

Mason stretched out his hand to interrupt him and asked the Moon Knight meaningfully, who sighed awkwardly, feeling that dealing with Mason's little clever ghost was really unpleasant.

At the same time, he realized that it was difficult for him to gain the upper hand in the verbal battle with Mason with his own wisdom, so he gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, and decided to dump this job to someone more suitable.

"Stephen! Here you go! ”

He shouted to himself.

In the next moment, the strip of moonlight cloth wrapped in a battle suit on his body quickly pulled away and rotated, and completed the "transformation" under the cover of the moonlight cloak.

The warrior-like Moon Knight is transformed into a well-mannered guy in a suit and leather shoes.

This guy no longer wears a hood or a cape, he is dressed in a moon-white suit and has a red rose in his jacket pocket, and his face is still wrapped in white gauze, but his face lines are obviously much softer.

"Yo, hello, Lord Mason."

This self-acquainted guy changed his awkward posture just now, moved his body very relaxedly, and stretched out his hand to Mason again, saying:

"Meet again, my name is Stephen Grant, the most brainy and negotiating person among the many personalities of the Moon Knight, and it was Mark who was talking to you just now.

That guy knew he was a violent maniac just by looking at it, and he couldn't do such meticulous work as talking about conditions.

As I said, the moment things change, he should put me in control. ”

"Wow! Two personalities! ”

Behind Mason he was holding his arms and trying to pretend that he was a tough bodyguard, but because he was bored, Harley, who was constantly blowing pink bubble gum, stared at his head and screamed:

"Look! Quinn, our fellow patients! ”

"Well, this lady seems to have multiple personalities, and it's a blessing."

Stephen Grant, who calls himself "Mr. Knight", politely removed the flowers from his chest and handed them to Hallie as a gesture of kindness, explaining:

"But I don't just have two personalities, I also have a very, very terrible bastard who I and Mark have teamed up to hold in the depths of my heart, and I don't dare to let him out so as not to do bad things."

"Mmmm, I did that to Quinn before!"

Hallie's eyes lit up like a "patient-friend" and said to Mr. Knight:

"Quinn is a big bad guy who has been tricking me into doing horrible things, and I have been able to keep her at bay by my fiery love for Mr. K.

But then we reconciled.

Harley is cute and cunning, Quinn is cunning and cute, and the two of me are the most powerful me when they work together.

You should give it a try, too! ”

"We tried, and it turned out bad."

Mr. Knight sighed.

Although he would love to talk more with Hallie, the "patient", and share their patterns and experiences with each other's sub-personalities, he obviously knows that this will be more important.

"It's okay, you can keep talking."

Mason next to him waved his hand and said:

"I'm not in a hurry! No kidding, it's much more interesting to listen to you talk about the joys of these mentally ill people than to talk about the conditions with the gods of the wall who are always trying to make a profit.

Why don't we change places?

I know there's a nice café in Gotham, and you and Mark are going to love the setting, so don't worry if Jack jumps out of the blue! I have a way to deal with that cold-blooded scumbag. ”

As he spoke, Mason touched the Black Death Sword Ragnarok Spear on his waist and smiled gently at Mr. Knight in front of him.

But it was the smile that made Mr. Knight Stephen swallow.

He's not Mason, if he fights alone, the enhanced version of Moon Knight and the full-state Mason are about four or six shots, but the gun on Mason's waist is too tricky.

If that weapon dedicated to anti-god nature is really used, the entire divine envoy team will be easily wiped out here.

Obviously, in the last short encounter, Mason didn't show his real skills at all, this guy is simply a "natural enemy" for all guys who use divine power but are not strong enough.

"Alright, put your little scare-scare pistol on your waist, and stop intimidating us poor people, Lord Mason."

Mr. Knight gestured, and his team left the Eternal Rock through the World Gate, apparently not the conversation they were supposed to hear.

This is not a harsh hierarchical rule, but a proper protection.

For them, the messengers of the gods, knowing too many secrets of the gods will never end well.

"Mark is a bastard who doesn't understand language arts, but he does get to the heart of two of the most important things today."

Mr. Knight whispered:

"You're right, Lord Mason, the victory in this world has shocked the gods, and the military and strategic victories are secondary, mainly because the three exceptional powerhouses you have summoned are impossible to ignore.

They are strong enough to enter the Council of Hope on their own, but now they are working for you.

This state of affairs has transcended the meaning of the victory or defeat of this war itself, and I have come here to find out these truths, Your Excellency, and the gods behind me are desperate to know your purpose. ”

"Is Odin one of you?"

Mason didn't answer the question, his question made the Moon Knight hesitate for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Everything you know exists in the legendary gods, the mighty beings that have been born and have been born in the past, present and future, and have been born in the name of 'gods' are all members of us.

But don't be surprised.

Just as the Stars Society can pull off an astonishing infighting of this magnitude with only three Great Mentors, the gods are arrogant and not so willing to obey the command and control of their kind.

We are very disunited.

The inner mountains are far larger than the Stars and the Council of Hope, and in fact, we could have become similar large institutions because of the presence of the web of divine power in different worlds and planes, but from the moment the concept of 'we' emerged, true unity was never achieved.

We are the ones who help the Warlocks pass the war resolution on the Council, we are the ones who want to find a balance of power between the Warlocks and you to gain their advantage, we are the ones who want to see blood and chaos run rampant, and we are the ones who want to overthrow the existing order of the Star Society. ”

Mr. Knight sighed and said:

"Our greatest enemy is never outside, our greatest enemy is ourselves, and this powerful-sounding collection of gods and spirits has been saved from the beginning.

And the Divine Messenger Team represents the ones who really want to do something and have the strongest execution in the concept of 'gods'. ”

"Thank you for explaining."

Mason took this important information to heart, then looked at the Moon Knight and said:

"If you want to know my purpose, you have to tell me about your purpose first, right? I think that's what it takes to have an honest conversation. ”

"Exists!"

Mr. Knight, Steve, stretched out a finger and said in a serious and serious tone:

"Everything is for existence, existence is everything, the purpose of the power we represent has always been simple, ants still steal life, not to mention the naturally powerful and immortal life?

We're all struggling, and the gods are no different from us on a cosmic level.

You don't have to doubt the correctness of this statement, this is what Kong Su Lao'er told me personally.

The autistic person is ugly and cunning, but he is generally not very deceiving.

Therefore, in order to exist, we can help the abuse, we can be cold-blooded and ruthless, we can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and we can also stab the knife in the back.

Now that your power is about to be established inside and outside the Stellar Society, it doesn't hurt for us to have a good relationship with you, one more friend and one more way. ”

"Quite a reasonable reason."

Mason nodded, then looked at the Moon Knight and said:

"I'm going to destroy the Constellation and end the Dark Ages."

"Hiss"

This straightforward answer made the Moon Knight gasp, and he hesitated for nearly ten seconds before he spoke:

"It's a terrible and very powerful ideal, but . . It's not unacceptable, after all, only when the stars will fall, the gods can take their place with the web of divine power. ”

"It doesn't matter, it's not my concern who is in power in the post-Stellar era,"

Mason shook his head and said:

"I don't care what happens in the era after the stars are destroyed, I don't have the power to plan for the future.

You just have to answer me, can you and the gods behind you help me? ”

"Yes."

The Moon Knight nodded and said:

"But you and I both know that the real problem is not in the Stellar Society, but in the impact. Do you have any refreshing approaches to this core question? ”

"I'm still trying, I'm not sure."

Mason shook his head and said:

"But if I do that, you'll just solder the car door and follow me all the way to the dark, go back and think about it, and talk to your buddies about it.

This is a big deal after all, don't jump to conclusions. ”

The captain stretched out his hand, put it on Mr. Knight's shoulder, and whispered:

"I will look forward to our next meeting, His Excellency the ugly and cunning Khonsu."
