92. Star Castle: The city of fading gorgeous reflections

"The Heart of the Star Emperor is working well, and the engine power has been increased to 157%! We are crossing yet another dimensional rift, as the impact of the impact will make the journey a little bumpy.

But good news, everyone!

Next stop is New World!

Wait 15 minutes and we'll be at our destination. ”

Barbara's voice echoed through the Fox's Nest's communication system through various areas of the starship, drawing cheers and cheers.

The lab assistants, who had just been released from their respective internment areas, did not yet understand what was happening, but that did not prevent them from realizing that the situation had been reversed through the still smoked chambers and the rebel machines returning to the mechanical center.

As a comprehensive research facility, the fox's nest certainly can't have only a scientific research team composed of geniuses from various worlds, and a whole logistical force to provide various assistance to these researchers.

The Council took almost everything it could with it when it evacuated the Fox's Lair, leaving these loyal and hardworking servants in their dormitories.

The implications are self-explanatory.

In these chaotic times, human life is truly a worthless thing.

"Everyone has been released, and everyone is in high spirits, and we have selected a few highly respected researchers to form a temporary management team, and are organizing manpower to repair the deliberately damaged power compartment and restore the connection between the core engine and the various functional areas."

Natasha Stark walked into the now-locked-down medical quarter, and at a glance she saw Mason, who was examining the inmates who had been rescued, holding a cup of instant coffee that she hadn't missed in days.

The Stark Legion Kanban lady leaned against the door and said to Mason:

"Of course, there are a lot of energy researchers who are very interested in the temporary core you use, but I guess it's not something that can be studied at will, right?"

"As long as the brave researchers are not afraid of being captured by the Universe Emperor's will to destroy and become the oil guys who call on the mechanical gods, I don't mind assembling a team of professionals to crack the mystery of the core fire.

But that's not the most pressing matter right now. ”

Mason straightened up, skillfully concocted a small bottle of potion and poured it into the glucose solution in the hanging bottle beside him, and walked to the next bed, where Mordoke 4 was lying with only a little breath left.

Without looking back, he said to Natasha:

"The thought extraction device that remains in these people's brains is failing, and if they don't get that gadget out before the situation gets worse, these guys are going to die.

They need to be operated on right away, and I guess the doctors in the fox's nest aren't busy right now, right? Or are you going to leave me alone with such a huge operation? ”

"I immediately called the medical team to come and change shifts."

Natasha straightened up and gave a military salute that touched her heels, fully showing her indecent character as a member of Stark, but before she left, she asked in a low voice:

"How are you going to place us?

Some of my colleagues who like to think too much have been asking me about it, and while the entire Stark family has absolute trust in you, it's natural for smart guys to think too much. ”

"I'm not going to settle you."

Mason looked back and said:

"You are all adults with IQs far higher than the average person, and you should learn to find yourself a job in the new world to support your family.

The K-Corps don't want the Council, we don't have that many resources to support you. ”

"Huh?"

Natasha was really surprised at this time, she stared at her round eyes and said:

"So you mean, you're going to let us go? Wouldn't it, be so generous?

While everyone is furious at the fact that they want the Council to monopolize the development of technology in the Dark Ages by raising us as pigs, I don't think many people would actually say no if they were working for you as a savior.

You shouldn't be able to understand the considerable benefits that a whole fox nest will bring to your command, right? ”

"Well, I think it's necessary to give you a science about how the K-Legion works."

Mason rubbed his forehead and said to Natasha Stark:

"I'm the leader of the K-Legion, but I'm only responsible for planning and logistics, and I don't know how to interfere with this kind of organizational adjustment, so if the world rulers of the Rebel Alliance want to recruit you, I won't say yes or no.

That's your business and theirs.

Got it?

It's just a loose coalition of interests.

Also, what did you mean by that?

Are you all willing to serve me? But most of you don't even know who I am, do you? Are you willing to sell your career just out of kindness or help?

This is not in line with the arrogant nature of high-IQ people in my impression. ”

"Indeed, if it was just to get us out of the cage, it wouldn't make most of the guys bow down, and I don't know what kind of dog temper we are doing research.

It is not an exaggeration to say that arrogance is an evaluation of high EQ, and it is not an exaggeration to directly scold stupid people with low EQ. ”

Natasha flicked her long proud blonde hair, and she squeezed her eyes and said to Mason:

"However, your situation is not in the normal range.

You see, so many of us have been in this astral fortress for seventeen years, and although the topics and projects we study are different every day, all the research results are for the same purpose.

Impact!

This is the only reason that brings us all together from countless worlds, and what so many of us have studied for seventeen years and invested countless human and material resources to no avail, has been solved by a young man of eighteen years in a matter of months.

Most importantly, you not only came up with the proposal, but you also designed the process without our involvement and successfully completed the trial.

You even thoughtfully set up 4 different sets of observation samples, and all of them were 100% successful.

What do you think they will think of you in this situation? ”

Speaking of this, Tony Six shook her head, and she pouted and said:

"It's no exaggeration to say that in the eyes of some radical guys, you are already the embodiment of the 'god of the world', Mason, let alone serve you.

All you have to say is that the next goal is to overthrow the council, believe it or not, they immediately grabbed their guns and enlisted in the army?

Don't think that a person with a high IQ must be sensible, the more talented he is, the easier it is to get into the horns.

So, consider my suggestion again, as long as you ask, I can't guarantee 100%, but at least 90% of researchers are willing to commit to you without pay. ”

"Hmm"

Mason thought for a moment, shook his head and said:

"I'm still refusing, it sounds like a lot of trouble, and my research career has come to an end, the fusion project has been a success, the hope of reversing the dark ages has been forged, and the rest is left to the more professional.

I'm going to focus on the rest of my tasks.

So, don't reveal that I'm on this ship just yet, okay? I don't want to be followed by crazy fans or something, and besides, hurry up and call the doctors!

Didn't you see Bruce Banner start vomiting blood on the 13th? ”

"Good, good."

Natasha hurried away, Mason stepped forward to stop the bleeding for the scrawny Dr. Banner, and after waiting for the first doctors to change their clothes and rush over, Mason quickly disappeared into the crowd and walked away.

But he didn't go far, but came to a cubicle in the medical quarters.

Zod and Kara stood here like door gods, and when they saw Mason coming, they got out of the way, and Kara whispered to him:

"It's a bad situation inside, you're busy."

"I know, guessed."

Mason complained, pushed the door and entered, only to see two Supermen placed on both sides of the room, one left and one right.

The unjust superman who was placed in the red sun lamp biological pod was beaten and fainted half-dead, and Dachao's condition was also very poor, but he was okay, he was not unconscious, but the bones on his body were broken in half.

It's going to be lying there with its teeth bared and shining on the yellow sun.

"You like to be reckless, don't you?"

Mason stepped forward to take out the orthopedic and suturing tools, and he said to Dachao:

"Can't you just let the lord go over? People cleaned up the little deflated three with three punches and two kicks, and seeing you like this, you must have used the 'Sun Fist' again.

I said, when I gave you that solar ray, I made it clear that it was used for explosive seeds in critical moments, not for you to use as a combat power amplifier. ”

"Lord Superman can't hold back, he will definitely kill the unrighteous Superman, in his eyes, this guy who has abandoned all the bottom line is the source of evil, the darkness that must be purified."

Da Chao bared his teeth and said:

"But I don't think he's incorrigibly bad yet, it's just that the pain of loss has driven him crazy, and I'm going to exile him to Phantom Space, maybe a few thousand years will be enough time for him to calm down and reflect on his life dominated by violence."

"Wake up! You can't lock people up in that place! ”

Mason said while using a kryptonite scalpel to cut open the bruised wound for Dachao:

"Be careful to jump out of another villain to give you the whole job, and then it will be another life."

"No!"

Dachao shook his head and said:

"I'll leave it to Lord Superman to take care of, and the two of us have agreed to form a 'Kryptonite Support Group', with Zod, Kara, Bizarro, and Little Joe all members.

We all have our own psychological problems and may be able to help each other, and the first person in the support group is him. ”

Clark looked at the unrighteous Superman on the other side of the room, shrouded in a red sun lamp.

He said:

"I believe there is still a fire in his heart, and I believe that I myself will not sink to the point of hopelessness."

"I think that's a bad idea, because getting together with a group of people with psychological problems doesn't usually make things better, but then again, you Kryptonians should solve the matter on your own."

Mason shrugged his shoulders and said:

"Don't forget, General Zod's gang is still at ease in the Gotham world, and now that the world has merged, the continental shelf has been deformed, and there is so much more folding space, it is probably not so easy to find them."

"That's not my job, Mason."

Dachao stretched his body, closed his eyes and whispered:

"Your Zod will be happy to do it for him, and my cousin will help him, but when I took down the Injustice Superman, he revealed a piece of news to me.

He wasn't the leader of the Twelfth Conqueror's Sequence, but their leader was indeed another Superman, a stronger and more dangerous Superman than him.

And the leader's brain is a vampire Batman, and his lieutenant, a Wonder Woman born of a new god.

Seriously, I can't help but wonder how many chaotic combinations of the three of us can exist in so many parallel worlds? And in so many worlds, no matter what identity or background the three of us are, will we eventually become partners and friends?

Is this also a predetermined fate? ”

"Your question is too profound for me to answer."

Mason was speechless about this, he left a few bottles of medicine and told Dachao to take it on time, and then turned around to see what happened to the unrighteous superman.

But before he could begin to check, the fox's nest spaceship, which was traveling at curvature faster than the speed of light, suddenly began to slow down, and after passing another eye of time and space in front of him, the new Osborna star bloomed in front of him.

Of course, it is impossible for a planetary spacecraft the size of the moon to sail directly into the Earth's atmosphere, and even getting close to it would trigger a gravitational imbalance with catastrophic consequences.

However, the high-tech fortress has a gravitational constant device that covers the hull, allowing it to dock smoothly in lunar orbit without interfering with the Earth-Moon system.

Before the Fox's Nest Fortress could stand, a large group of fanatical researchers had already gathered in the starport and yelled to get on their shuttles, to go to the fused earth for a field trip.

"Little sweetheart, we found the folding space where the Star Castle is located!"

After entering the communication range, Hallie's communication rang immediately, making Mason smile and ask:

"That's good news, didn't you go in and have a look?"

"Don't dare to go in."

Hallie screamed:

"Come back and take a look, the Star Castle is different from before, it feels like a haunted, and Zakang said that this must be some kind of sinister demon method of Mephisto.

But the old wizard Shazam and many others have not come out yet, and the gate of the world is no longer connected to the inside of the Star Castle, and we are preparing to send some cannon fodder who are not afraid of death. Uh, I mean, warriors!

We're going to pick out a group of fearless warriors to go in and see how things are going, and Ciri says she's going to take the lead, and we can't persuade them. ”

"Wait for me to pass."

Mason listened to the news with a frown.

When the old devil threw the Star Castle and smashed down the city of Attilan, he thought that this was not as simple as it seemed, but now it seems that his prediction has come true.

The captain told the Kryptonian trio about the situation on the ground, asking them to send Da Chao back to Gotham to recuperate from his injuries and guard the injustice Superman by the way, and then twisted a hatch to set it as a projection of the World Gate, and when he opened the door and entered the Starlight Flash, he sent Mason outside the Star Castle.

There was already a large group of people gathered here, all members of the Star Society, ranging from the Grand Mentor to the C-Class, and Mason quickly spotted Ciri and Liana and the members of Team K.

He glanced at the Star Castle as he walked over.

In this folded space, the castle halfway up the mountain is placed on the vast sea together with the surrounding snow-capped mountains, becoming an island in the sea, but its main body is not too damaged, and the surrounding fairytale scenery has not changed.

But it does lose something that makes it feel awkward at first glance.

"Is it a shadow?"

Mason walked over to Hallie, nodded slightly to Ciri, then looked at Zakang and said:

"The castle has lost its shadow?"

"It's worthy of the captain, this look is sharp."

Za Kang, who was measuring the rotation of the magic around him, patted the horse a little, and then said:

"It's some kind of pretty clever magic, Mephisto threw the entity of the Star Fortress into this world, but the shadow of the Star Fortress remains where it was.

If I'm not mistaken, there must be some kind of connection between the two regions.

It's uncertain if this is the old devil's plot, but if you want to figure things out, you'll have to venture inside. ”

"We can't get in touch with old Shazam."

Ciri said next to him:

"He's definitely still alive, along with the other eight A-class squads and some of the B-class squads, who are still in the Star Castle, and they may be trapped as well."

"Could you please come over and see Black Strange?"

Mason glanced at Zakang, who pursed his lips and said:

"I asked, people said don't bother him for such a trivial matter, he almost ate me in one bite, I suspect that the withdrawn guy has already noticed the strangeness of the Star Castle before, he just doesn't care.

So I don't think it's too dangerous. ”

"Then let's go in and have a look."

Hearing Black Strange say that this was a "small matter" that did not require his intervention, Mason had a bottom in his heart, he looked around, and said to the people around him:

"Don't go to too many people, if it's a trap, it's very troublesome, pick a good character to go in with me."

"Little sweetheart, your injuries are not healed yet."

Harley said worriedly, but Mason stared at the castle that had lost its shadow in front of him, and he shook his head and said:

"That's Mephisto's message to me, and I'll have to see for myself what the old devil is trying to do, but you'll have to stay here.

If something happens to me, it's up to you to get me out.

I don't feel at ease with the others. ”

"Uh-huh!"

Hallie was immediately moved when she heard this, she and Quinn glanced at each other, and then patted her chest and said:

"You can trust me on this, little sweetheart! Bring the Deadpool squad, they're all good cannon fodder, and . Then let Ciri accompany you. ”

"Huh?"

Mason and Master Hunter were stunned at the same time, and then they heard Harley say solemnly:

"If something happens to you, I'm sure Ciri will do everything to get you out, but not necessarily for the others, you have to take her there, otherwise I won't worry."
