"There are 47 Weapon X project bases that this mothership can directly contact, of which 7 have been abandoned or are close to being abandoned, and the rest are still operating, and if you use the data migration mode, you can revive one-third of the consciousness in the brainwave enhancement machine at one time.

But again, it's a one-off.

There is no way the Council will allow those bases to fall into our hands, and I reckon that once the first phase of Project Diamond Cradle is completed, coupled with the collapse of Phase 1, they will immediately destroy Project X in all current planes.

However, I noticed that there were several long-range signals in the starship's database that could not be actively activated, and I guessed that they were secret bases in the hands of the Council.

Maybe Doom's super drug-addicted mutants were born from those places. ”

Emma's tired voice rang out from Mason's mind, reporting the data she had found in the starship database, and the chaos on the starship hadn't completely subsided, but it wasn't a problem anymore.

The belated swordsman is leading the mutant pioneers to clean up area by area, to ensure that skirmishes elsewhere don't interfere with the upcoming large-scale data migration of the Cradle Project.

"It doesn't matter, it's enough for these things to be used once, and the recovery of nearly 50,000 X Royal Knights is enough to bring the internal forces of the mutants back to equilibrium.

It's like the X-Men and the Mutant Brotherhood in the past. ”

Mason responded, looking back at his mother and saying:

"Can you still hold on? Why don't you take a break? I'm going to give you some energy restorative or something? ”

"There's no need."

The White Queen yawned sleepily and said:

"Actually, the main trouble is to unlock the various data blockades left by the Supreme Professor, but when the first batch of X-Knights recovered, those blockades have been unlocked, and the rest are mechanical data transfers.

If it doesn't have to be activated by the user's life signal, then the program can be automated.

I was able to catch up on sleep in the process.

Transferring nearly 50,000 consciousness backups at once can also release the redundancy of the brainwave enhancement machine, thereby improving its performance, and then this exclusive item belonging to the psychic power can also be used in head-on combat.

The whole process takes six hours, and when it is completed, it is just in time for dawn.

But I guess the process won't be so smooth, and the internal conflicts are nothing.

After the obedience procedure was unraveled, the internal chaos of the first sequence had already begun, and in addition to this mothership, they had internal conflicts of varying degrees in the nine large bases in several other planes, especially after Magneto and Chase Commander appealed to them, and the internal divisions within it have become more and more obvious.

Now the main pressure is coming from the outside.

Perhaps other sequences of conquerors will be sent to abort our operations. ”

"Then let them come."

Mason glanced at the time and said in a casual tone:

"At the moment, there is still a gap between the X-Riders and the rebels of the first order, and the cooperation between the K-Men and them is still superficial, but these have nothing to do with it, and they will actively unite in the face of a common enemy.

The greater the external pressure, the quicker and closer the unity becomes, and the attacks of the other Conquistadors on the First will make the wavering clones aware of the brutal truth.

The more ferocious they come, the more manpower we can absorb.

If the Council really sends someone to strangle the nascent mutant forces, it will be a real divine help! ”

"Well, you've got that to your point, and I don't think I need to give you any more advice. Then the data backup migration will start in five minutes, and the whole process will try to ensure that the mothership is not destroyed, and if there is a sudden power outage in the middle of the process, you will have to say goodbye to your dear mother. ”

Emma makes a joke and goes into a deep psychic dispatch in her trademark laughter.

After making sure that she was fine, Mason looked back at the bridge behind her from where she was, the traces of the massive clash were still there, but the bodies of the recalcitrant generals had been sent out.

It is impossible for your side to be unscathed after a big battle.

For example, Magneto has already been sent to the medical cabin, and Chase Shuai can still hold on, but he will also sit in a chair and be treated by first aid technician Mason.

The only ones who still had some strength left and seemed to be full of energy were the large group of comrades.

This super omega mutant with more than 300 personalities is probably the most durable madman that can be born in this era, and through the transformation of different personalities, he can fight until the extinction of the sea of stars.

"Emma is about to use the Project X bases under the command of the first sequence to complete the recovery of the second batch of X-Knights, but these bases are located in remote areas of various planes, and the transfer of compatriots after resurrection is a big problem."

Mason said to the crowd:

"Once the first order of rebellion is known to the Council, the hunt for the new compatriots will definitely be on the agenda at the same time, and the speedsters can contact them, but it will take time to get them all back to New Osborne.

Do you have any good ideas? ”

"Let them hide in place!"

The personality of the large group is converted to that of an Abnormal Detective.

The man's temperament suddenly became mysterious and obscure, and he did not know where to find a pipe, and while playing with it, he said to Mason in a thinking posture very similar to that of the old man:

"Don't summon them so much to bring them back to the New Osborne Tower, at this stage, every bit of power in your hands must be properly used, and the newborn X Knights must also have a stable strength recovery period, even if it takes a lot of effort to bring them back for a while, it will be difficult to form an effective combat force.

It is better to let them scatter and hide in the earth or the sea of stars in various planes.

Their hidden stays in different worlds can also be used as a means of communication between us and unfamiliar worlds and planes, and even as emissaries for your faction, the best candidates to communicate with worlds and forces that have not yet heard of the neo-utopian project.

It's not about giving up on aiding them, Mason.

This is only based on thinking about the long-term future, and the fusion project you have named 'New Utopia' has been successful, which means that in the future all the discrete worlds and planes will be integrated.

At that time, it will be the dawn of time for our X-Knights to return home with the honor of participating in great causes, which is clearly a good choice for both sides.

As for how to help them hide and avoid being pursued, the question is simpler. ”

The large group of detectives raised their heads, stared at Mason with those piercing eyes, and said:

"As long as you shine brightly, the eyes of the Council will stay on you, and the bigger you do, the safer these hidden compatriots will be.

You don't have to see them as underdogs who need to be protected, they're all X-Knights, and they're the best warriors of our time.

There are hundreds of resurrected knights born in each base, and the superposition of their quantity and quality itself is already a force to be reckoned with.

What do you think of my suggestion? ”

"Perfect!"

Mason reached out and patted his hand to praise the detectives for their brilliant plan, and he was right, and while Mason was happy to help anyone in need, he couldn't ignore the self-help factor.

For the X-Knights of Utopia, they are not weaklings in the conventional sense, and they can directly participate in Mason's neo-Utopia project as a fairly elite force after recovery.

It's a stroke of genius.

This also gave Mason a deeper understanding of the magical split personality of the large group, and he wanted to take a moment to continue chatting with this detective personality, but after ten seconds, an unexpected situation suddenly appeared.

"Attention First Passenger! The external communication access of the Conqueror system, which has extremely high authority, comes from the Office of the Third Sequence Commander of the Conqueror, and is very likely to be the Third Sequence Commander himself.

He asked for a direct call with the current controller of the first series mothership, was it connected? ”

The reminder of the Mobius chair made Mason suddenly turn his head, and the rest of the rest of the bridge also looked at him, some of them worried.

Maybe it's because the Council has already known what happened in the first sequence, and the commander of the third sequence is probably the last warning before the war starts?

Mason waved his hand and motioned for everyone not to panic.

He sat in the Möbius chair, and after a few seconds of thought, he connected to the communication, and an optical full-body projection was placed in front of him, and he was greeted by a quaint desk already sitting behind the desk, working on some papers.

The commander of the third sequence of the Conquerors, a member of the third group of the Quint Society, Mason met him once, and it is said that this guy also has some secret connection with the death of Ciri's parents.

"You're looking for me?"

Mason asked.

The latter raised his head after processing the document at hand, this face was unchanged from the last time they met, and the scars on the eyes were still conspicuous, completely destroying the softness of this face and adding a different kind of ferocity to him.

"You're fast."

Steve said softly:

"Fifteen minutes ago, I received an automatic warning of danger from the Council's defense system, and before this person could be gathered, the first mothership fell into your hands.

It was a terrible rebellion, in the heart of a historic sequence of conquerors, like a sudden sharp knife, too fast to defend or even incomprehensible.

Counterinsurgency orders are likely to be given soon.

But I have to assess the situation first, and then I have a few questions for you, invader, and I hope you answer them truthfully. ”

He said this without any hostility in his words, as gentle as a joke between a middle-aged uncle and the young man next door.

Mason pondered what this guy really meant, and it was not difficult to tell from the information revealed by Captain Turner that Steve Rogers was happy with Mason's victory.

From an optimistic point of view, this guy shouldn't be an enemy, at least not a hopeless bastard like Lao A.

"Ahem, listen up."

The commander of the third sequence picked up the questionnaire at hand and asked:

"Is the commander of the first order dead?"

"No, Madeleine is missing, and she hasn't been seen the whole time."

Mason replied truthfully.

Steve nodded, drew a tick on the paper, and said:

"Very good, the commander is still alive, so the threat assessment level of this invasion has been lowered, and it seems that there is no need to dispatch at least three conquistadors to fight for the purpose of extermination."

This sentence made Mason and everyone around him wide-eyed.

Feed!

What are you doing here?

Is malfeasance so blatant?

"The second question, under whose control is the first series mothership currently located? Is the chain of command still intact? Can orders be effectively given to the base layer of the sequence? ”

Steve asked again.

This time it was the commander who answered him.

The old general, who had half of his body frozen to the point of organ failure, and was receiving seven injections of potions at the same time to ensure that his condition did not deteriorate, coughed and replied:

"The mothership is still controlled by clones! The chain of command was damaged, but it did not interfere with the normal transmission of orders! Communications at the nine major military bases under the command of the first series remain connected.

By the way, the mothership was not seriously damaged, and the situation is now under effective control!

It was an unexpected internal rebellion that did not require external intervention. ”

"Huh? Who's talking? ”

The third commander-in-chief asked:

"Name it! Military rank! Office! As well as the identification number, I would like to remind you that everything you say now is recorded, and if you lie or conceal the consequences of serious consequences, you will be sent to the Tribunal of the Conquerors! ”

"Name: Paris Bennett, Nickname: Chase Commander, Clone of Lot 003 with Serial Number 004, currently serving as Co-Commander of the First Sequence, performing administrative functions in place of the missing Commander-in-Chief, the Red Queen.

Conqueror PIN XXXYR-24579-D65. ”

Chasing Shuai very skillfully reported a long list of information, he glanced at Mason, and said in a firm tone:

"I would like to report to you, Third Commander, that the conflict and chaos on the mothership is only an internal matter of the first order, and it has been quelled and it is reiterated that there is no need for interference and help from other sequences.

Thank you for your interest and sorry for taking up your precious time. ”

"Well, the identity verification is passed, it seems that he is indeed a high-level commander, so the threat assessment level of the situation has been lowered again."

Steve Rogers took the trouble to spend another amount of money on the paper.

Finally he asked a third question.

He said:

"Explain why there are others on your mothership who are not part of the conqueror? This is a serious violation of the military ban! ”

"Ahem, we are the pioneers of the Star Society, and because we are clones, we were invited by General Commander to help put down the rebellion. As for the rest of the people who are not part of the Conqueror sequence, they are members of my team. ”

Mason replied:

"Do you need me to report my serial number for Weapon X as well?"

"So your squad has more than fifteen hundred members?"

Steve's elongated, expressionless voice said:

"Are the Pioneers of the Stars Society all monsters?"

"Well, I have a collector's habit, and when I meet powerful guys, I can't help but recruit them into my team to become my personal servants, and we have always had a tradition of forming servant armies."

Mason said without blinking his eyes:

"My specific identity is 'Divine Craftsman', an A-class member of the Stars Society, and this operation is a joint operation between the Stars Society and the First Order, because the incident was suddenly not reported to the Council in advance.

However, both sides are under the auspices of the Board of Governors, so there are no potential risks. ”

"Okay, the identity is serious, and the incident threat assessment level has been lowered again."

The Third Commander looked at the paper that had been answered and filled in front of him, and he rubbed his chin and judged:

"It seems to be a false positive in the system, this is just a small internal issue, according to the disposal process, I will delegate the handling authority to you, please solve the problem as soon as possible.

The second question was eight hours later, and I hope that by then the issue has been resolved.

Finally, the general!

You violated the thirteen military rules of the Conqueror Sequence in this operation!

As a result, you will be imprisoned for 7 days, so please dismiss yourself as soon as the situation is resolved, hand it over to the next commanding commander, and go to the confinement chamber to complete the punishment.

Do you want to justify your actions?

It's your power. ”

"No, Third Commander, your punishment is very fair, I accept it."

The general replied seriously, and the large group next to him burst out laughing, only to be glared at by Mason and Steve Rogers at the same time.

This is a video conference! Bastard, be serious!

"Okay, business is over, it's a real headache to get people out of bed in the middle of the night just to deal with a false alarm."

The third commander stretched out his body to get up, and under the upper half of his straight military uniform was the lower half of his pajama pants, and it seemed that he had really been awakened by the warning and had temporarily gotten up from his bed.

The optical projection in front of him changed direction along with the actions of the third commander, and finally fixed the perspective on the sea of stars outside the porthole of the office.

It was a very different and dark starry sky.

"There's still some time, let's talk about something personal."

Steve leaned against the porthole, turned back to Mason on the other end of the projection and said:

"Remember that bet we made?"

"Hmm."

Mason nodded, and then heard the Third Commander whisper:

"I'm going to comply, but not necessarily for others. Anyway, don't act rashly yet, wait for my news, OK? ”

"Looks like you're on my side."

The captain said:

"It's really relaxing."

"Mason, I don't take sides except my philosophy."

The third commander shook his head and sighed and said:

"Well, you say, how perfect would it be if things ended so smoothly and peacefully?"
