Chapter 102 54. Sharing a secret with you represents goodwill—【3750】
Mason was sent to Dr. Leslie's clinic, and his arrival surprised the doctor who was on the night shift.
Mainly because the large and small wounds all over Mason's body looked too oozing, and the blood stained on his clothes made him look like he was rolling in a sword mill.
But in fact those injuries are skin trauma.
Except for a little blood loss and weakness, Mason is fine.
But for the sake of the health of his employees, the cold-faced and warm-hearted doctor still asked Mason to observe in the clinic for one night.
He was placed in the ward where he stayed last time. Even though it was raining heavily, Batman still had to go out for night patrols, so Mason was the only one left in this ward soon.
The first few hours were fine, but in the second half of the night, Mason began to feel very uncomfortable in his stomach, and then quickly developed symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea.
He didn't bother Dr. Leslie though.
He knew what was going on.
"Damn Rejection"
Mason was in the bathroom, throwing up several times in a row so that his reflected cheeks in the mirror looked pale.
Before in Crime Lane, in order to end the battle with Jason Todd as soon as possible, he used the "Clearer" Legion booster found in the headmaster's office of Hogwarts College.
That thing states in the label that it will produce various negative reactions after injection.
Young people will only be thankful that they didn't get the worst negative effects after experiencing the feeling of "weakening Wolverine".
As an alchemist, he has a very precise grasp of his physical condition.
The current vomiting and diarrhea are just the process of the body excreting those harmful substances. In terms of the strengthening of the body by the unicorn blood he drank in the Arkham Asylum last night, he can recover his health in a few hours at most.
If you can sleep, you will definitely not be able to sleep.
So Mason sat on the toilet and took out the enhancer that had been injected before by the light of the bathroom.
He looked at the exquisite all-in-one syringe in his hand, and recalled in his mind the scene of his "second stage transformation" **** abuse of the Scarlet Knight just now in Crime Alley.
After injecting this enhancer, he obtained various abilities of Wolverine Logan almost immediately.
Jason's two magic knives pierced his heart several times but did not cause any damage. The heart healed itself the moment the blades were separated from the body.
There is also the sharp bone claw that pops out of the fist. It feels like a weapon connected with his own flesh and blood. Every swing can cause terrifying damage to Jason.
The most powerful thing is the "beast intuition" that he is given during the effect of the enhancer.
The combat instinct that can feel the enemy's malice and attack methods at any time during fierce battles and make corresponding adjustments makes Mason feel like he has turned into a killing machine.
Every time Jason swung the knife, he knew where the knife was going to cut. Every time Ertong evaded, he would instinctively attack the weakest part of his defense, and with his own blood and the blood of the enemy gushing out the This beast instinct can also enter a berserk state similar to "blood rage".
Except for a short-term loss of sanity, this thing has almost no weaknesses.
But even loss of sanity can make a man with **** instincts more dangerous, like a wounded lone wolf.
"If this side effect can be weakened."
Mason stared at the enhancer in his hand whose use times became [2/3]. His interest in this alchemical compound that can change the battle situation in a short period of time became more and more intense.
This thing is marked that after Lv4 alchemy, you can try to analyze the basic strengthening blueprint. Now Mason just meets this condition and he has tried it himself.
This allowed him to master part of the basic formula after recovering from the enhanced state.
"This thing is for commanders, and its adverse reactions should have been suppressed to the point where it is harmless to the human body. But since there are models used by commanders, there must be drugs for ordinary soldiers and cannon fodder.
And this 'Legion of Cleaners'."
Mason tried to disassemble the syringe in his hand. With his current engineering knowledge, it is not difficult to do this. While disassembling, he thought:
"At present, it is certain that this legion has destroyed various important areas of the Hogwarts world, but if the zombie virus is spread by the stars, it means that there must be a cooperative relationship between the two organizations.
Maybe the stars will mess up the world first, and then the cleaners will enter the scene and clear them out. From Mr. Potter's diary, it is not difficult to find that some of these cleaners have powerful individuals.
The Ministry of Magic with Britain was even uprooted and destroyed by a single person.
But some of them need to use this kind of enhancer to gain combat effectiveness against elite Aurors. The gap between the physical strength is really big. "
The young man complained:
“It’s almost like mixing a T. rex and a paramecium. Huh? Wait, maybe that’s true!”
An inspiration appeared in Mason's heart like a flash of lightning.
He followed his own thoughts and thought in his mind:
"The members of the Stars Club come from various parallel worlds, and the members of the pioneering team are also selected from various worlds. If the composition of this Cleaner Legion and the Stars Club are the same, then maybe they are also fighters from multiple worlds every time they go out. join together.
It's like Mr. Sandstorm said, "The vassal world of the Stars Club". Isn't it normal for such a large organization to hold a legion that can be enslaved or driven?
It's like Darkseid and his new gods are as strong as they are, but they also need a lot of cannon fodder to help them conquer the world.
In other words, this time the Justice League failed to kill the League of Assassins at the last moment. If the zombie virus that was judged to be 'extremely dangerous' from the source spreads, perhaps this world will become a doomsday-like wasteland. "
"click"
The light click in his hand interrupted Mason's thinking about the Constellation and the Cleaner, and the delicate all-in-one syringe had been taken apart.
The small bottle containing the fortifier liquid was exposed, and two thirds of the contents were left.
"So much is enough for me to deduce the complete formula."
Mason put the vial filled with pure liquid in front of his eyes and examined it carefully. He decided to take this thing as an important task for his next alchemy progress.
The configuration of other medicines should be done step by step, but this thing that can immediately strengthen the combat effectiveness of K team must be mastered as soon as possible.
Just imagine, if he can copy this drug, he can make the kiteman grow real wings, make the catwoman also become an immortal goddess of war, and even let Zha Kang gain the ability to control dangerous energy for a short time.
All members of the K team will have a gorgeous "second stage transformation", although it can only last for 30 minutes and there will be various adverse reactions.
But it is enough to save lives at critical moments.
This beautiful prospect made Mason nod in satisfaction, put the solution in his hand into a potion box, and took out the phoenix egg that was bigger than an ostrich egg from the suitcase with his backhand.
He had only had it for a few days, and he didn't even have time to examine it carefully.
When I was free, I took it out and held it in front of my eyes for gestures, but I didn’t feel any sign of life in the eggshell at all, and I couldn’t even hear the sound of egg yolk or egg liquid in it when I shook it by my ear.
"Isn't he really dead?"
Mason raised his eyebrows and thought for a while, then reached out and tapped the eggshell with a low sound.
He also saw that the information label on this thing said that using flames could shorten the rebirth time of this phoenix, so he decided to give it a try.
The young man lifted his trousers and walked out of the bathroom, searching for a lighter. After a few seconds, he realized that he shook his head and stretched out his left hand to put the huge egg in his hand.
Magic fire launched!
The "blessing of power" from a devil ignited the fire of magic power, and the burning flame dancing on the fingers crawled up along the outline of the eggshell and burned, covering the whole egg in no time.
Under Mason's gaze, after being covered by the magic flame, the egg, which had not moved at all, vibrated strangely, as if it had sensed that the delicious flame took a "deep breath" after a few seconds of preparation.
The young man only felt a huge attraction erupting from the eggshell.
Not only devouring all the magic fire that he ignited, but even drawing his own energy to continuously generate magic flames so that it is continuously wrapped in flames.
It seemed to enjoy being surrounded by this magical fire.
But Mason suffered.
This will be reversed to draw the magic fire, which made Mason feel weak very quickly. After ten seconds, he even felt dizzy when he stood still.
"boom"
The "greedy" phoenix egg was thrown out by Mason. This action made the young man gasp and sit on the ground.
The fatigue on that cheek seemed to be sucked dry.
The good news is that the legendary creature's egg is not that fragile, and it was not damaged when it was dropped on the ground, but rolled all the way to the window.
The bad news is that Mason was so weak that he couldn't stand up for a while.
In addition, the status bar of the character card actually has a negative effect of [Energy Weakness], reminding him that he will not be able to summon the magic fire for the next 24 hours.
Of course, there is a second piece of good news amidst the bad news:
Successfully completed a huge amount of magic fire summoning, the artisan · flame manipulation skill proficiency is improved, currently at Lv2, and the mysterious side talent is unlocked as [craftsman · flame shaping].
This talent allows the user to expend more energy to complete complex shapes when using magic fire to smelt small metal parts.
"Well, it's not a loss, but I really don't want to have this feeling again."
Mason rested on the floor for a few minutes before recovering. He got up with weak hands and feet, walked to the window and picked up his phoenix egg. He found that it needed more than a hundred years of terrifying time to complete the rebirth of Nirvana. The time was shortened by five years after the magic fire was absorbed just now.
It seems that this magic flame is more "nutritious" than ordinary flames, huh?
But the problem is that Mason can't stand this kind of drawing, so he can only find other ways later to see if he can satisfy the "big eater"'s drawing.
Mason was exhausted by the egg and planned to climb into bed to rest for a while, but before he could close his eyes, he heard the sound of the window opening.
The young man immediately grabbed a fruit knife on the bedside table, and then opened his eyes to take a look.
Batman in the night is entering the ward through the window.
His cloak and battle suit still had water stains from the rainy night. It seemed that the master finished today's night patrol and was about to call it a day.
"The door is over there!"
Mason sat up from the bed, yawned and pointed to the door of the ward. The master didn't pay attention to this unique humor. He just looked at the exhaustion and weakness that could not be concealed on Mason's face.
It seems that Jason really beat him up badly, which made the master feel a little guilty again.
This is all because I didn't educate Jason that child well.
"Let me tell you something, Mason."
Master stood by the hospital bed. He didn't turn on the light but habitually hid in the shadows. He said to Mason sitting on the bed with his signature hoarse voice:
"It's all about you, and I think maybe it's time to tell you. The truth may make you feel bad, but sooner or later you'll have to come into contact with it."
This opening statement made Mason raise his eyebrows.
Seeing the seriousness of the master, Mason probably guessed what he was going to say, so the young man pretended to be listening carefully.
And Batman took out a very old document from his arms and threw it in front of Mason. The young man glanced at him and pulled the lamp by the bedside to open the document with the faint light.
The cover is an adoption record from Gotham Orphanage.
The content inside is, as expected, legal proof that Mason was adopted when he was one year old, but the adopter was not Mason's parents, but a name he had never heard of.
"You are not the biological child of Robert and Aisha Cooper, Mason.
When I came into contact with you, in order to check your identity, I told Alfred to investigate your life experience, and found this secret by accident. "
The master looked at the young man who bowed his head silently, and said:
"There are many gaps in the documents of the Gotham Orphanage before it was taken over by the Wayne Foundation and relocated for operation. I went to search and only found this.
On the night you were adopted, there was a car accident on the road with your car.
Robert Cooper, who was a senior member of the Penguin Gang at the time, accidentally passed by and took you away from the scene of the car accident. Then, with the help of the Penguin, a series of official contacts were opened to make you officially the adopted son of that gang member. "
Mason knew this secret from the Penguin before, but now he must pretend that he knew it for the first time so as not to reveal his whereabouts in Blackgate Prison.
He lowered his head, holding the edge of the file with both hands.
Fingers are trembling, obviously suppressing a huge shock and a sense of bewilderment.
After several minutes, he raised his head in the fluorescent light of the desk lamp, looked at Batman in front of him with reddish eyes, pursed his lips, and said in a low voice:
"Then why did they dump me? I mean my biological mother, why should I be sorry, me"
"It's okay, you can cry."
Batman maintained an indifferent posture.
But his tone was much softer.
He looked at the young man sitting on the bed in front of him.
This is an orphan.
Well, same as myself.
The only difference is that Mason lost his parents since he was a child, while his parents stayed with him until he was eight years old. In short, a very magical feeling rose in the master's heart.
He felt that Mason in front of him was at an important stage in his life.
Perhaps, this boy who learned the truth of his life needs his own correct guidance?
lest he repeat the same mistakes as Jason.
"I have also been investigating your biological parents, but unfortunately, so far, I have not found any valuable information."
The master said something, and then Mason was dissatisfied.
The young man clenched the document in his hand and gritted his teeth, saying:
"The Gotham Orphanage was taken over by the Wayne Foundation ten years ago, and all the documents and materials there are in your hands! Bruce, how could you find nothing?
Am I the villain's child? So can't you tell me the truth?
Can't you trust me? After I helped you defeat the League of Assassins and help you find your son! Am I still someone who must be suspected? "
"Mason, calm down."
Master shook his head, he explained:
"I'm not hiding any information from you, because all the papers from the year you were adopted by the Gotham Orphanage were destroyed in a fire.
Obviously, some people don't want us to know your real life experience, and you should also know what such behavior means, Mason.
You have an unknown past.
And those shadows may find you again someday in the future.
Actually, now I suspect that the capture and impartation of knowledge by the 'Three-Headed Dog' has something to do with your life experience. The dark wizard who is obsessed with collecting evil souls may not be as simple as she seems. "
"Yeah, she's not simple at all."
Mason almost laughed out loud in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be sad on the surface.
Until a few seconds later, the master walked to the bed and said to him very seriously:
"Mason, do you want to reconsider the suggestion of becoming Robin? You can become one of us, and we will protect you as we protect ourselves.
Become Robin, my old invitation is still valid now. "
