Chapter 273 71. We need an attack (push) firm (earth) hand (machine)--monthly ticket plus update [1825]
"Why Gotham?"
On Paradise Island, Catwoman, who had just received an assembly order and changed into a full set of Amazon armor, came to assemble and got bad news from Thalia.
She widened her eyes and exclaimed:
"There is no sign of this at all! And the two sides have long been in trouble? Why choose a place for a decisive battle?
Are they so respectful in war? "
"It is said that the human side sent an assassin to try to assassinate Diana in her bedroom, but she saw through and thought it was a provocation from humans to the Amazons."
The long-sleeved and skillful Thalia has already recruited some frustrated Amazon warriors on the island. She has initially established an intelligence network and naturally knows more than Catwoman.
Now is not the time to hide.
Therefore, when other elite warriors rode Pegasus to gather in the empty space, this cunning woman shared all the news she found out with Selina, she squinted her eyes and said:
"Diana and her warlike generals took it as a signal that human civilization had joined the war, and they had been waiting for this signal, and now they could finally invade the land openly.
The reason why the people of the sea reached an agreement so quickly and chose Gotham as the place of the decisive battle, I guess there may be plans to draw humans into the war.
After all, although the Amazons are strong in combat, their small number is their weakness. If they want to defeat the technologically advanced and abundant underwater kingdom in one fell swoop, letting humans help them share part of the pressure is the best strategic choice.
As for why the sea people agreed so readily, the reason is also very simple.
According to the analysis of the information found by Bain, because of environmental pollution and a series of problems in ocean development, the people on the seabed have long been eyeing land civilization.
Even without the factor of the Amazons, it would be a matter of time before Atlantis attacked the land. "
"Huh, I knew it was a bad idea to dump garbage in the ocean."
Catwoman put her hips on her hips and complained fiercely. She looked around, and when Diana's queen's banner appeared in the Paradise Island military camp, she squinted and said:
"I estimate that we will be appointed as the 'Leading Party' in February 1st. If we don't want to lead these she-wolves to Gotham, we will probably have our flag cut off.
Any plans for Mason? "
"He let us make our own decisions, he just said that he would give us support when necessary, and promised to take us out of the danger zone as soon as the war started."
Thalia snorted and said to Catwoman:
"Your little brother is busy with his own business and doesn't seem to care much about your safety"
"I still need his care?"
Selena flicked her fingers, letting the biological blade cover her fingertips and turn them into black cat claws.
She pouted and said:
"Sister, I am now the top fighting force of the K team. Mason is very sensible not to let me rescue him. We mature big sisters can always take care of ourselves."
"Selena, Thalia, my alien sisters! Come forward!"
While Catwoman and Thalia were discussing countermeasures, the call from the War Queen made all the soldiers around focus on the two of them.
But the two big sisters are not stage frightened.
They strode forward wearing the golden armor of Amazon female warriors. Amidst the sound of chilling war drums, they half-kneeled in front of the War Queen, and heard Diana ask them again:
"You vile kin sent me a ridiculous killer in red! They thought I would die at the hands of a weak man, but they underestimated the power of the Amazons.
My general advised me to kill you."
The War Queen paused.
The Eagle Lady General and Leopard Lady General beside her hold their weapons at the same time, and they will execute the only two land women on Paradise Island for her when the Queen gives an order.
Diana waved her hand and said loudly in a ruler's gesture:
"But I trust you guys!
I believe in the friendship and trust we have forged in the **** battle, but Selena Kyle, Talia al Ghul, my trust in you does not mean that Paradise Island will accept you forever .
In the decisive battle that is about to begin, you must choose your allies carefully.
I and my invincible army will go to Gotham"
"Then we will be the honorary vanguard of the Queen of War!"
Thalia shouted:
"My sister and I are determined to give our all to Her Majesty's conquest! We will prove our loyalty to our new home with blood and victory!"
"This world controlled by men is not worth nostalgic, my lord."
Catwoman also said:
"We are honored to personally destroy that hopeless city for you, and another of our sisters has been lurking in it, and the moment your army lands on the mainland, she will bring you an excellent servant military!"
"very good!"
Diana was quite satisfied with the speeches of the two people in front of her.
As for whether they are sincere or hypocritical, she doesn't care, this is what the queen wants.
She is proud but not stupid.
She doesn't expect a team of three to help her legion achieve much results, but harvesting two leading parties before setting off can obviously boost morale effectively.
At the same time, on the bottom of the sea, on the ruins of the Atlantis palace that was burned down by Diana Prince, a larger-scale swearing-in meeting was also going on simultaneously.
The gloomy and indifferent King of the Seven Seas, Arthur Curry, rarely attended the war ceremony, and his newly-promoted raid general, King Shark, was guarding him loyally and bravely.
At this time, the Shark King is awesome.
This shark monster with a weak brain was endowed with a set of special-shaped armor made by the skilled craftsmen of the sea people, which protected all areas including his delicate shark fins, and also put on his hideous teeth. Adding a bite weapon that can release lightning makes this guy look more mighty and ferocious.
As for the shortcoming of his poor brain, perhaps this can even be called an "advantage" in Neptune's view. Which commander doesn't like a brainless general?
He doesn't hesitate to let him rush where he wants to go, and he is stupid enough and naturally loyal enough.
The most important thing is that there will be no psychological pressure to use it as cannon fodder to sacrifice at critical moments.
As the personal servants of General Shark King, Bane, Deathstroke, and Deathshooter are naturally allowed to participate in this mobilization meeting. They are not as good as Selina and Thalia, and they can talk to the king in front of the army. A sense of presence or something.
They will only be allowed to fly the flag of the sea people outside the venue and participate in the shouting.
But it is more convenient for the death knell trio to observe around.
Because of gaining trust, this guy even swaggered to hide a camera on his submarine armor, and "live-streamed" this unprecedented scene to his teammates far away in Gotham to "appreciate".
At this time, in the Batcave, the microcomputer taken out by Mason projected the picture of the undersea people swearing-in, and the scene of thousands of Atlanteans shouting the slogan "destroy human beings and seize the world" made people feel ashamed. The humans present are under a lot of pressure.
"The situation is like this. It is a waste of time to say that it is redundant. Let me arrange the task."
Mason threw the PDA in his hand on the table, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth with some headaches, and Halle next to him immediately took out a lighter and lit it for Mr. K.
She already knows Mr. K's living habits very well.
He does not enjoy smoking tobacco, but uses it as a form of mental focus during times of stress.
As the first plume of smoke rose, Mason let out a long breath, smiled at Harry, and said:
"We split into two groups. Mrs. Martha will first pick out all the surviving women under your command, and then follow Harry to meet the king of Paradise Island, and participate in the initial war contact as a human servant army under Queen Diana's command. inside.
The rest follow me!
We must leave Gotham immediately, but not to escape. "
Mason flicked the cigarette ash and said to the men in front of him:
"In the current situation, whether Barry wants to enter the Speed Force space to find out the truth, or the old man wants to protect his little grandson, we must first survive the conflict between the two sides.
I'm not worried about the Amazons.
They are used to being reckless, as long as they avoid Bingfeng, there will be no major problems.
I'm worried about the 'weapon of doom' in the hands of the Atlanteans, Arthur Curry of this world is a sullen and angry bastard, he will definitely use that weapon to kill the Amazons when the situation is not good .
Gotham, as a battlefield, is unlikely to be spared.
We need to attack their doomsday warship and get that weapon in our hands before Arthur Curry. I have undercover agents over there, and they will cooperate with our actions.
But we still need an attacker! "
He said with emphasis:
"The kind of attacker who can sweep everything and turn the tide of the battle. Fortunately, I know where to find him."
Damian stretched out his hand and said to Mason:
"We can leave everything here, Mason, we can take our own people and leave here with Thomas and Martha, we can avoid this war that does not belong to us.
This world is not friendly to us at all, we don't need to stay here and fight for it.
Wait for Barry to regain his strength and fully assist him to re-enter the Speed Force space. As long as Barry finds out the hidden truth of this world, we can return to our world.
I'm not trying to escape, everyone, it's just that it's impossible for us to stop the war between two civilizations.
This is a mantis acting like a cart, and even seeking his own death. "
"right!"
The old man and the old aunt clown looked at each other.
He took a step forward, put his hand on Damian's shoulder, and said to Mason in a deep voice:
"I am willing to cooperate with all your actions, but you must first send Damian out of this world and send him to a safe place. This is our only request.
The world is long gone, but Damian doesn't owe it anything. "
These words made Barry Allen's face darken. The Flash glanced at Mason secretly, and the captain took another breath from his cigarette with a headache, and then waved his hand to tell the bad truth.
"Calm down, ladies and gentlemen, the worst news is that the world gate is not working! Barry just brought me this bad news, your world is a special case of 'no entry, no exit'.
It's like a special lock that locks everything here.
Unless we can find the key, there is no way for anyone to escape here.
It's not that I don't want to send Damian away.
I can not do it.
The existence of the K team has been linked to the fate of this world, either we all live together, or we all die together. "
Mason looked up at the old man and Mrs. Martha.
The angry revenge knight stepped forward and waved his fist to give Mason a hard blow, but was forced back by Halle next to him swinging a baseball bat, and the vicious dogs Bud and Luke at her feet also got up and bared their teeth at the old man.
The old aunt clown had already pulled out her pistol and was about to perform American Iai's "fatal magic" for Mason, but Damian held her wrist tightly.
A civil strife is imminent.
But Mason didn't panic.
He reached out his hand to stop the tension between the two sides, and said in a deep voice:
"Things are still turning around now, and the time of destruction predicted by the fate machine is still five days away, which means that the world will not be destroyed by the war that is about to start now.
We still have five days to reverse our fate, but if you continue to make trouble, you probably won't have enough time.
It will take us a while to find out where the official base of the aliens is held."
"It's under the coastal cliff nearly a thousand kilometers away from Gotham, just near the metropolis, and it's disguised as an ecological protection zone."
The old man suppressed his anger, he took out a bat-shaped tracker and looked at the flashing red dot, and said:
"If we start now, we'll be there by morning."
"Did you put something on him in the fight with Deathstroke just now?"
Mason raised his eyebrows, thinking that you, a tough guy with a tough style, old man, can do this kind of tricks? And Barry Allen, who stood up and stretched his legs and feet, also complained at the right time:
"Sure enough, it's Batman's style. Every time I go home after a meeting in the Hall of Justice, I have to check my body at least three times to avoid bringing home something I shouldn't bring.
Since I joined the Justice League, the bug that Bruce installed on me weighed at least two catties. That was just what I discovered, and there are probably more that haven’t been discovered.
Your mistrust is still inherited from your ancestors, right? "
"Stop wasting time!"
The old man took out an aviation map from the drawer of the Batcave and was about to leave, but Mason grabbed him and asked:
"How are you going to get there?"
"Fly the plane."
Thomas broke free from Mason's hand and said angrily:
"I have a private jet that transports guests to the casino, right at the Gotham airport."
"But we have The Flash here."
Mason coughed and suggested:
"So, to make sure we don't waste time, let's go on our legs. Barry, work!"
He gave an order.
Barry, who had already recovered from his injuries thanks to Speed Force's super self-healing ability, immediately stepped forward and grabbed the old man's wrist, and disappeared on the spot with a whoosh.
They have to go first to determine the location of the secret military base.
"Damian is following me!"
Aunt Martha held her little grandson's hand and said tearfully:
"I don't worry about bringing him to you, I want to protect him personally."
"Don't make trouble, you have to follow Harley to lead people to the Amazons. Those she-wolves don't like a man joining them, even a child with a handle."
Mason says:
"Damian is also a combat power, and the current shortage of personnel must make the best use of everything."
"I can put makeup on little Bruce!"
Aunt Clown argues:
"Look at my little Bruce's delicate skin and tender flesh. Just show him a casual makeup demonstration and put him in a cute little dress. He will be a beautiful little girl."
"Hey, I'm here to help!"
Harry immediately rolled up her sleeves and rummaged through her own cosmetics in her backpack when she heard such an interesting thing, but Damian felt that his "famous name" might be ruined today.
If this is disguised as a girl, if it is seen by my strict mother, I'm afraid.
"No!"
He tapped on the world amplifier in the center of his belt.
With a whoosh, the body shrunk in the splash of electric light and broke free from the shackles of the clown grandma, and then jumped back and forth in the batcave nimbly, and finally rolled and landed on Mason's shoulder.
Like a villain, he stood up on Mason's shoulder and shouted to Martha:
"You don't have to worry about me, I can protect myself, I don't want to pretend to be a little girl, I refuse!"
"Bullseye!"
Mason turned to his "hidden bodyguard" and said:
"The main authority of the protection program is temporarily delegated to Harley Quinn and Martha Wayne. You have essentially been transformed into a war machine without emotion. Those warlike Amazons will not refuse your participation.
Obey orders and follow directions.
You performed well enough, I will give you more freedom later, OK? "
"Listen to you, boss, but can I kill someone?"
Bullseye leaning against the wall doesn’t care who he listens to. While dismantling and maintaining the prosthetic projectile launcher on his arm, he said without raising his head:
"I haven't killed an Amazon or an Atlantean yet, and this new prey always makes one's hands itch."
With a whistling sound, the wind wrinkled, and the panting Barry Allen returned to the Batcave. When he grabbed the arms of the remaining two, Mason said to Bullseye:
"When necessary, yes!"
"嗖"
Their figures disappeared before the eyes, and Bullseye rubbed the black and white target mark on his forehead, complaining:
"Then when is it 'necessary'?"
“‘Necessary’ means not shaking your hand when I tell you to shoot.”
Mrs. Martha covered her mouth and let out a weird laugh. Amidst the piercing laughter, the old aunt took off her hat and brushed her hair, and said to the two people beside her:
"Now it's 'clown time'! Harley, come and help me put on my 'battle makeup' and wait for the show to begin."
