Chapter 319 18. How can Mason, who bullies the old man, be a partner of justice?
"Mason Cooper, what the **** are you doing?"
At the scene of the overturned car in the radiation desert, seeing that Eagle Eye was forced to disarm, Logan, the old wolf behind him, really had no intention of going forward and desperately.
It was as if the Wolverine aura that had disappeared for a moment when he scolded his son was just a flashback, he seemed to have returned to that wimpy attitude of the old farmer.
He stood up in embarrassment from the sand, looked at the junior from another world who dared to have a friendly conversation with him half an hour ago, he shook his body, and said in a hoarse voice:
"If you came here for that, let Clint go, take my life, I will never resist."
"What the **** are you talking about?"
Mason couldn't understand Wolverine's brain circuit at this moment. He never said that he wanted to hurt them, and he just extended his hand to ask for a ride in a friendly way.
It was Logan who wanted to kill him first, and he only made a small response.
Seeing the attitude of the old wolf resigned to his fate, he pouted and said:
"I really just want you two to help me lead the way, and by the way, I am very interested in the things you transported and the past stories that you are deliberately hiding.
I'll fix your cars, resupply you, rearm you, and hit the road with you to where I'm going.
I just have one request.
You must listen to me along the way, and you will naturally be let go when you arrive at your destination, Logan. As for your family, don't worry, they are all here. "
He patted the suitcase under his feet and said:
"There's a miniature ecosystem here, and a nice house with hot water and food, and I think it's much better to let them stay here than to stay in a crappy house that's full of radiation and may be hunted by the Hulk gang." .
By the way, don’t you even think about the revenge of the **** when you get into trouble? It seems that you have really been out of the superhero business for too long, and even your vigilance has dropped like this.
You're welcome, Logan.
This is the insignificant thing I should do for my idol as a 'wolf fan'. "
"Hey, if the two old acquaintances finish chatting, can you explain the current situation to me?"
Hawkeye Clint, who maintained the "military salute of a certain country", said dissatisfiedly:
"Did you two know each other before? So what happened to this attack?"
"You can ask him."
The Fenrir armor behind Mason maintained vigilance under the control of Delaman. He stepped forward and took out the five small knives that Clint hid on his body, and threw them aside, and then threw out his left hand at any time. The web shooter was removed.
Even if these superheroes are old and blind, they will not be easy to deal with. They seem to surrender, but they are just looking for an opportunity for the Jedi to fight back.
After disarming Clint, Mason walked to the side of the overturned spider car, took out his toolbox, and planned to do an emergency repair on this good car that hadn't been maintained much in seventeen years.
But before he could do it, he found a password box that fell out of the storage box at the back of the car. It looked very sophisticated and completely incompatible with this chaotic and brutal wasteland.
Just looking at its silver-gray simple appearance, it looks like a product of pre-war technology.
Mason suddenly became interested, and reached out to pick up the box and put it in front of his eyes.
"Don't touch it!"
Going over to help the old wolf, Clint moved his ears.
Although his eyes are useless, he seems to have "awakened" his extraordinary ability again. When he realized that Mason was going to open the lockbox, Eagle Eye suddenly became irritable.
He said:
"That's our cargo! It must be sent to New Babylon on time."
"I know, give it to the rebels in this world, right?"
Mason said without looking back:
"I heard all your conversations in the house. In this matter, I think Logan's hunch is right. You'd better not try to complete this journey that sounds troublesome."
"I said, don't touch it!"
Clint wanted to step forward angrily to stop him, but the old wolf grabbed his wrist tightly. Not far away, the power armor had ejected a scarlet floating cannon and was targeting the two of them.
Although he didn't know much about Mason, Old Logan was sure that if Hawkeye made another attack, his "junior", who was very gentle in his words and actions, might really open fire.
Two bad old men who are no longer as brave as they used to be are no match for the power armor in front of them, not to mention that Logan knows that Mason has a team of "flying" bodyguards.
Under Logan's soft persuasion, Hawkeye tried hard to suppress the unhappiness in his heart. When he heard the mechanical sound made by Mason trying to open the lockbox, Clint snorted and said:
"Don't try it, it was encrypted with the cipher left by Reed, unless there is a matching key, no one in this world can open it.
Let's have an honest chat, your name is Mason, right?
What exactly do you want to do? "
"As I said before, I just want a ride."
Mason tried a few times, but he couldn't easily open the legendary combination lock in front of him, but he didn't care. He had plenty of time to study this thing along the way.
Engineering puzzles and stuff are great to pass the time.
He first put the password box into the luggage, and then manipulated the Fenrir armor to lift the spider car. He quickly got into the bottom of the car for maintenance and replaced the necessary components for the car. "The Lost Eagle" replied with a weird look on his face:
"You are going to New Babylon. I just looked at the map. That place is not far from the ruins of Xavier College. We can just go the same way. Also, Clint, is your blindness caused by glaucoma?"
"So what?"
Hawkeye didn't have any good feelings for this little thief who robbed the way, but right now his form is better than others, so he didn't provoke him any more, he just said something offhandedly.
In the next moment, Mason, who was dismantling the damaged site of the spider car, threw a bottle of delicate-looking potion over with his hand, and the eagle eye, who was about to go blind, reached out and pinched it in his hand precisely.
"Drinking it is good for your eyes. I'll show you after we're on the road. This kind of disease can only be cured by taking the right medicine in the later stage.
But fortunately, I brought enough materials. "
"Very professional throwing technique, he should be a shooter type guy."
Hawkeye focused on Mason's skill in throwing the medicine bottle just now. This guy threw it by throwing a dart, and his strength is not bad, but it is absolutely impossible for him to drink the medicine given by a stranger.
Although the old hero is down and out, he should have a lot of vigilance.
"Mason, we have reached the nearest city to the north. This should be San Francisco, but the entire city has been destroyed. Three Kryptonians have searched, and there are basically no living people here."
While Mason was repairing the spider car, Batgirl's voice rang through the team comms, and she reported:
"Halley and I will stay and wait for you, and the others will continue to explore north. The good news is that the farther north you go, the radiation concentration decreases, and we even saw plants.
But the bad news is that there are not many people left in this world.
The main body of its civilization has completely collapsed. This place is worse than the Caribbean world when it was hit. It seems that the great shift seventeen years ago has indeed hollowed out this world. "
"This is a good thing, it means that we don't need to think about saving civilization, and we can finally relax."
Mason replied:
"You rest there first, and our 'new friend' and I will go there immediately. According to the extreme speed of this spider car, it may only take a few hours, and we can get there before midnight.
Speaking of which, are the new players performing well?
"Uh, this is your job, Mason, you're asking me to do something again, you're such a stinky brother."
The adoptive sister Barbara complained in a low voice, then took a few seconds to think, and replied:
"The best performer is of course Zod. This Kryptonian is like an excellent soldier who can take the initiative to shoulder his responsibilities and supervise his companions.
But his problem is, he only trusts you.
Although he will listen to me, I can feel him looking at me, not yet sure if I'm trustworthy, it may have something to do with his previous experience, but it's not a big deal, I believe he will be integrated into the K team soon middle.
The performance of several other people was a bit poor.
Blue Beetle is a typical youth at heart, and he still regards this action as an armed parade. Firestorm performed slightly better because of the guidance of Professor Stein, but Jax's rebellious mentality is very strong.
He would deliberately provoke me, and then I would give him a lesson, like a weakened version of Damian.
The worst performer was Kara-Eyer. "
Barbara sighed and said:
"Now she still stubbornly thinks that we tricked her here and made her not a partner of justice, so she is holding her breath, but she was taught very well by Dachao.
She knew that we were a team right now, so she didn't do anything dangerous, and I noticed that she was the most serious about gathering intelligence.
She is observing this strange world with her own eyes and drawing her own conclusions.
I won’t talk about Bizarro, he is playing very well with Harley now, and Harley can instruct him to do a lot of things with candies. It’s hard to imagine that Lord Pavlov’s taming skills are actually shining in this field.
In addition to the lack of intelligence that makes clumsiness irrelevant, and it is difficult to understand his meaning when he always speaks ironically, Bizarro is almost an 'ace player'. "
"It was exactly as I expected, but the beginning was not bad, and there was no such thing as running away as soon as I entered this world."
Mason put down the engineering wrench, installed a delicate component into the chassis of the Batmobile, got up and opened the hood, and prepared to replace all the energy systems of the car.
He said to Barbara:
"Keep watching, keep giving them instructions.
The dangerous difficulty of this world can just be used as a 'rehearsal' for Kryptonians. They will hardly encounter fatal threats in this desolate world.
But from my guess things might change once we get into New Babylon and it would be best to get them into serious mode before then. "
"You make me feel like a babysitter when you say that. Grayson should do this kind of thing."
Barbara says:
"I don't have that much patience to play tricks with them. Come here quickly. Harley can't see that you are getting irritable. That's it. Contact me if something happens."
The communication was hung up, and Mason also breathed a sigh of relief, and turned back to the old wolf who was sitting on the side of the road and whispered:
"Hey, Logan, help get this thing off, this car is a waste of money to give to Clint, look at how old this engine is, if it can talk, this guy should jump on his feet and yell at Clint Not talking about Wude."
"I want to fix it too."
Eagle Eye retorted:
"But my eyes tell me I can't do that fine work."
Old Logan did not refuse, he stepped forward to help hold the disassembled engine, and the heavy thing was easily lifted between his hands and thrown aside.
Mason watched this scene, and while taking out the disposable Ark reactor and the supporting energy output equipment, he whispered to the old wolf who was clapping the oily hands:
"Your strength is obviously not weakened. Even if you don't have steel claws, beating a few sons of the Hulk is like playing. Why do you have to endure it to that extent?"
Facing Mason's question, Old Wolf hesitated for a moment and said:
"I will never use force against anyone again. That was the oath I made in front of Vanessa after she was rescued. I just want to live peacefully until I die of old age."
"You mean, Wolverine is going to be a pacifist when he gets old?"
Mason snorted, and while tightening the bolts, whispered:
"This is definitely the funniest joke I've heard since I was eighteen. You have war running through your veins, Logan. You want to live in peace. Have you ever asked Wolverine for his opinion?"
"Wolverine is dead! How many times do you want me to say that?"
Old wolf became irritable, grabbed Mason's cigarette case and turned back to the old man.
A few minutes later, Mason tuned the new engine, and the overhauled spider car roared in the desert with full power.
He sat in the driver's seat and honked the newly replaced horn, and shouted to Logan and Clint, who were squatting on the side of the road, smoking and chatting like two old men:
"Get in the car, it's time for us to go, my men set up a small camp in the ruins of San Francisco, we have to get there before midnight."
"Walk."
The bald old wolf threw away the cigarette **** in his hand and got into the car with Hawkeye. Mason sat in the back seat and released a few drones to patrol the vicinity.
The temperature dropped a bit at night, Mason and Logan were okay, but Clint, who was already an old man, obviously couldn't bear it, and kept sneezing.
Mason took out a bottle of spirits and handed it to him. Eagle Eye didn't refuse this time. He took a sip of the wine to warm himself up, and let Mason check his completely broken eyes for him.
"The situation is a bit tricky, you didn't tell the truth."
Mason looked at the completely gray eyeball with medical gloves on, and said:
"It's not just glaucoma, you were poisoned, right?"
"I don't quite believe you when you say you are a doctor."
Clint didn't care. He sipped his wine and handed the bottle to Logan who was driving. Drunk driving has always been a serious problem, but right now in this doomsday desert, no one cares about them.
Luoluoying leaned on the seat, he let out a long breath, closed his eyes and said:
"Seventeen years ago, during the offensive and defensive battle of the Tricurved Wing Building, I shot Zemo's head with an arrow, but the poison of Lady Hydra also hit me.
It hurts so much, it still hurts thinking about it now.
Daredevil rescued me, I lay in the temple where he chose to become a lama for six months, I survived, and the price was that I lost my eye Hawkeye?
Tch, old Huang Li.
But Matt is still loyal. Before he died of injury, he taught me to use voice instead of sight, so that my old bones can live safely until now. What are you doing? "
He sensed that Mason had taken out a very sharp object, and immediately said vigilantly:
"Are you going to operate on me here?"
"No, just extract a little bit of your genes."
Mason took out a very sophisticated biological device with the logo of Kangtao Company on it. He used a special extraction device to take a sample from Hawkeye's eyeball and put it into it, and the device started working immediately.
He thrust the thing into Hawkeye's hand, patted him on the shoulder, and said:
"Your eyes are hopeless, but a new pair might work better. Take what I gave you. It can clone a pair of bionic eyeballs generated from your genes within six hours.
When we get to the place, let my team members perform a 'little operation' on you, and take it as an apology for what I did to you just now.
We still have to go a long way. I don't want a sharpshooter to be dissatisfied with me. A cold arrow from behind is always more dangerous than a bullet in front of me.
Logan, do you need me to treat you?
You obviously suffer from some kind of severe post-traumatic disorder. My girlfriend is an expert in this field. Shall I help you register? We have a relationship, so I can give you a discount. "
