Chapter 199 82. Take whatever you like, I only want Mason Cooper! --【415】
(Add more for the "Autistic Captain" brothers!)
Mr. Hunter's anger is multifaceted, not only because Mason gave her a "backstab" at a critical moment, but also because she knew that her identity might be exposed.
She didn't think it was fun to play the dress-up game in the Stars Club.
The past identity is somewhat sensitive, and if you want to win the trust of others, you have to hide it in all directions.
So far she has done a good job. The swordsman and warlock may doubt her gender, but they don't know her true origin. It's just that Mason's messing with her has made them vulnerable.
The young man didn't know the existence of the swordsman, but the hunter knew very well that in the last night of the world of assassins, there was more than one great teacher there.
The most important thing right now is to determine whether the swordsman has also returned to the Fort of Stars.
It would be best if that guy didn’t come back. If he does, we’ll have to test how much information she got during the few hours she shamelessly disguised herself as a low-level member of Team K.
On the way back to Fort of Stars, Mr. Hunter was still complaining.
Obviously such a big world! Why is it so coincidental that a random teleportation in a critical moment can send such a living person as a swordsman directly to Mason.
What a ghost!
The most important thing is, how did that guy with a shrunken brain usually come up with a fake identity to hide information for intelligence when he saw Mason's IQ go online all of a sudden.
Could it be that the swordsman's usual foolish look is just a disguise to deceive her and the warlock?
Could it be that she is the one who is the best at acting among the three tutors?
Can't it?
With this thought in mind, the hunter quickly returned to Stars Fort.
As she expected, the castle was completely under martial law. The three layers of elite reformers from the Cleaner Legion guarded the exits. The connection between the entire demiplane and the outside world was completely cut off, and some The mysterious guy is checking the staff of the castle.
This is obviously catching a mole.
In terms of what happened in the world of assassins, there must be more than one pair of eyes of the other party in the Stars Club. In the past seven months of contact, one's own intelligence system has almost made one-way transparency for the other party.
Just the beam of Isu light blade that was accurately shot at the core of the world gate can confirm this point.
Traitors appeared in the lair, the nature of this matter is not ordinary, if it is not for the impact of the approaching time node, it is estimated that the entire Stars Fort will see blood once.
But for the current remedial action, Mr. Hunter is quite contemptuous. The arrest of the traitor with such a big fanfare shows that the problem of his own side is really big.
However, this is a real good thing for the youngsters who aspire to become the "Destroyers of the Society of Stars", which means that all the current defects of the Society of Stars can be used by them.
From this point of view, Mr. Hunter would also like to thank the Assassin World for this big event.
"Hunter Your Excellency! The Warlock and the Swordsman are waiting for you on the top floor."
As soon as she entered the hall of Starsburg, which still smelled of blood, an elf staff member whose face was pale with fright came forward to report.
There was still blood on this guy's clothes, obviously he was almost caught in a pond.
And when he heard that the two companions were already waiting on the top floor, the hunter's heart skipped a beat.
Damn it!
The swordsman came back faster than her?
This must be because the sleeping potion injected by Mason's **** was delayed. When she entered the elevator leading to the top floor, Mr. Hunter began to think about various countermeasures.
Do not reveal your identity.
At the last moment, those vicious assassins had already cleared the scene. Let alone the swordsman, it was impossible for him to know what happened during that time, because even the hunter himself as the "participant" didn't know.
So the worst-case scenario right now is that the swordsman will tell the warlock all the information she has discovered, causing the Isu secret that Quint has been trying to figure out to be shared with the Constellation.
If this is true, it means that a vital opportunity has been wasted.
"It's really that the plan can't keep up with the changes."
The hunter sighed in his heart. He knew that the swordsman would disrupt the situation. When she was led into a trap by the assassins, he should not rush out to save her.
I originally wanted to let her owe me a favor to use at a critical moment, but I didn't expect things to develop like this in the end.
But think about it carefully, this is already the third "out of control incident" related to Team K.
First, Gotham City’s counterattack, then Spider-Man World’s misfire, and finally, this time’s precise backstab in Assassin’s World. It seems that things related to Mason will never go according to the plan of Mr. Hunter or the Club of Stars.
And it wasn't until now that she belatedly thought of an important question!
I was knocked down with a stick by Mason, and the whole process until she woke up at Gotham's pier was less than four hours. During these four hours, I have no self-protection ability at all.
If that guy has a bad idea.
Thinking so, her fingers touched the gap in her robe and grabbed an ordinary button, but after crushing it, she saw the sophisticated and weird electronic components in the button.
That little bastard!
The silver teeth under the mask are clenched, and you really dare to install a monitor on yourself while you are unconscious?
How could he have such courage!
"Snapped"
The door of the tutor hall was pushed open, and the swordsman who had changed his clothes was lying sickly on the single sofa, and the warlock was obviously treating her with two medicine bottles in his hand.
Seeing the cold hunter walk in, the swordsman jumped up immediately, and shouted to her under the surprised gaze of the hunter:
"You came back safely, I was not in vain for worrying, I haven't thanked you yet, about you saving me from that damned demigod and covering my early evacuation.
I apologize for always thinking you were an asshole, Hunter.
See the truth in a crisis, you are a trustworthy companion. "
"Um?"
Hunter narrowed his eyes.
What nonsense is this guy talking about?
etc!
Is she signaling for herself to follow her words? This guy doesn't want warlocks to know what happened in the world of assassins? Ha, sure enough, this guy's previous silly Baitian has been pretending.
Very scheming.
"Hmph, it's good to know, next time you encounter this kind of thing, you can count on me to help you."
Hunter snorted and sat on the sofa covering his wound. She glanced at Warlock and said:
"How's the situation? The gate of the world is not damaged, right?"
"With that energy intensity, it was almost impossible to directly hit the main body of the World Gate, but the projection core of Fort Stars was completely shattered, and it would take seven days to recreate it."
The warlock said in a gloomy tone:
"This shattering will directly affect hundreds of worlds connected to Starsburg, and a large-scale loss of connection may cause unnecessary waves.
The impact is approaching and people are already panicked, so there is no time to heal the two of you.
Rest for a few hours and then take the members of the Council of Twelve to inspect the important worlds. I will come to the headquarters to restore the communication as soon as possible.
besides!
This matter has alarmed Lord Fate, it requires us to conduct a thorough investigation and allocate part of our manpower to search for traces of the Isu Assassin World in the parallel world system after the shock is over.
It considers the knowledge of the Isu to be very important, and has shared this matter with the higher authorities.
Specific instructions may come down in a few days.
Speaking of which, Hunter, the swordsman was attacked and seriously injured when he jumped in. It’s understandable that he couldn’t find any clues, but you stayed there for four hours. Didn’t you find anything useful? "
"What you really want to ask is your servant?"
The hunter sneered.
She patted the table and got up, raised her finger and pointed at the warlock's nose, cursing:
"Who do you think provoked this incident? The Albert Wesker you sent! He took away the sacred objects of the assassins under their noses, which directly triggered their worldwide siege and war. fight back.
Just five minutes after he took the golden apple, that world activated the Isu device to hide them.
He didn't regret his own death.
But he dragged 11 innocent teams to be buried with him!
Those poor B-level personnel may not realize what happened until they died, and they were trapped in that world by the assassins who had prepared for pigs. "
"Yes! Exactly!"
Lying on the sofa and looking at the weak swordsman, he also chimed in and shouted:
He may have a high opinion of himself, thinking that one person can level up the world.
But it turns out that he caused trouble that he couldn't solve by himself. He alarmed the guardian demigod of that temple, the one who cut me half to death!
Ahem, of course, it's not like I can't beat her!
The main reason is that I was smeared by the light cannon at the beginning of the scene. In short, you should bear at least one-third of the responsibility for my injuries! If you don't pay, I will stay in your meditation room and never leave. "
The accusations made by the two people made His Excellency Warlock somewhat embarrassed.
He whispered:
"As far as I know, Wesker is not such a reckless person, and there must be some things that we don't know about. Didn't you also send someone to search for information?"
The warlock glanced at the hunter and said:
"Didn't your people find anything useful?"
"A group of B-level personnel died, and an A-level member was lost, and a great mentor was almost killed. None of us found anything useful, but you are still counting on four C-level rookies to make a comeback? "
The hunter let out a sarcastic nasal voice and said:
"If even our C-level cannon fodder could do this, the stars would TM unify the multiverse long ago, we're just exploring sequences! Warlock, don't expect a group of explorers to do military work.
The four rookies were almost scared to death.
If I hadn't jumped out of there with them at the last moment, they would have been captured alive. "
"Fine."
Warlock is a little unwilling.
But things have come to this point, unless the coordinates of the Assassin's World can be retrieved before sending people in, what happened there will really become an unsolved mystery.
As for whether the hunter and the swordsman will join forces to deceive themselves to hide some secrets, the warlock has never considered this possibility at all.
The swordsman is notoriously brainless, and the hunter is a senior pervert who has been disguised as a man for more than ten years. It is not a day or two that the two don't like each other.
In fact, Warlock felt that his main task in the Gathering of Stars was to coordinate the conflicts between the two of them so that they would not fight each meeting.
"I'm going to coordinate my personnel and assign them to conduct inspections."
The hunter got up and said:
"But after Wesker committed suicide, the seat he vacated"
"I'm injured, it's still a work injury!"
The swordsman coughed, raised his hand and said:
"I think that seat should belong to me. I have so many talented people under my command that they all sharpen their heads and want to climb up."
"You already owe me your life, and you still want to owe me another favor?"
The hunter said quietly:
"And look at what **** you've been recommending over and over again! That guy named Wade Wilson is killing people. I can't help but want to stab him every time I have a meeting! Or talk about him Sew your mouth shut!"
"Well"
The swordsman was choked and speechless, so he waved his hands reluctantly and said:
"All right, all right, it's up to you. What happened to Wade was just an accident. Who knew that guy was so lucky that he could win three times in a row by drawing lots. I didn't want to."
"This incident made me realize that it would be difficult to do many things without my own faction, so I will arrange for one of my people to enter the twelve-member council."
The hunter glanced at the gloomy warlock and said:
"I will compensate you for this seat, Warlock."
"That parliament is originally used to balance the forces of all parties, but the three of us know that the division of seats represents the power behind us to develop the right to speak in this regard."
Warlock did not object, after all, his faction now has the most seats in the twelve-member council.
He just reminded:
"The forces behind you have always been mysterious, Hunter, if they also want to step up to the front, they'd better go to the council headquarters to report in advance, I don't want to cause any upper-level disputes."
"Um."
The hunter nodded, turned and left.
When she returned to her office, just as she was about to take off the mask, there was a dark red crack floating behind her. She glanced back, and the sickly swordsman stepped out of it.
She looked at the hunter without talking nonsense, threw out a key carved with a devil's head, and said to the hunter with her hands on her hips:
"This is the key to my treasury, it's all yours! I want something from your hand."
"what would you like?"
The hunter asked in surprise.
Then I heard the swordsman snap his fingers and say:
"I'm short of a bed warmer recently. I think that little boy named Mason Cooper under your command is pretty good. Give him up to me."
The request made Hunter narrow her eyes, then she shook her head and said:
"Sorry, this is not for sale."
"I will add another twelve vassal worlds, all of which are C-level and have special resources, which will definitely satisfy the forces behind you."
Swordsman is the same as bidding in an auction, saying:
"We were 'fighting side by side' just now, let me tell you the truth, I have no interest in Assassin World and Isu knowledge, it's up to you how you want to fight.
All I want is Mason Cooper.
If you don't give me him, I'll tell the warlock everything I know.
Look, now that I'm your potential friend, Hunter, you don't want to see me on the warlock's side either, do you?
And I know a lot of things, for example, your afterlife team has been secretly supporting the rebels in many worlds against the Cleaners.
You traitor! "
"Shh, be careful what you say."
The hunter put his finger on the swordsman's mask, she stopped pretending, and warned in a woman's voice:
"It's not up to you to point out whether I'm a traitor. If you want to tell the warlock what you want to say, don't threaten me. I don't want to do that.
Besides, you have a lot of scandal, Liana.
You have been secretly searching for mutants from various worlds to prevent them from joining the stars. What are you planning to do? You also concentrated them in a certain A-level world for protection. Do you really think that you are doing this very secretly? "
Having said this, the hunter coughed, approached the swordsman and whispered:
"The Aix team was sent by you, right? What do you want to do by placing eyeliners next to me? To be honest, this kind of operation doesn't seem like a job you can do with your brain."
"Anna and the others really have nothing to do with me. We are two systems. They hate me to death."
The swordsman rolled his eyes and said:
"I am also a puppet pushed to the front. I never care what the people behind me want to do. Why don't you ask Anna yourself if you are so curious?
Don't you trust her very much?
She adores you too, she really adores you and starts to imitate your dress in her own home. In short, don't talk about these things, Mason Cooper, that little guy, will you give it or not? "
"snort."
The hunter sneered and said:
"It's not impossible to discuss if you want him, at least tell me the reason."
"I said, I need a bed warmer, that guy is pretty."
The swordsman curled his lips and said something.
The hunter glanced at her, and said in a drawn out voice:
"You are short of a warm bed, so I don't need it? Well, since you don't want to talk about it, let's stop here. That guy is the person I focus on training. If he dares to stretch his claws, he will chop it up for you.
Try it if you don’t believe me. "
The two women broke up because of a man's quarrel, and the swordsman who left the hunter's office was a little annoyed.
She activated her ability to jump over seven worlds in a row and finally arrived at her own base world. In the depths of a demon fortress in a standard hellscape, she pinched a group of crystals used for cross-world communication.
When the light came on, she said to the other side:
"Professor, that's the thing I might have found another one."
