Chapter 510 56. I admit that I spoke a little loudly before, now I will apologize to you【810】
The meeting between the envoy team and Mason was scheduled long ago.
There is no flaw in the time, and there is no problem with the location. Both parties are punctual and courteous. The only fly in the ointment is that the current environment has undergone what can be called "subtle" changes.
According to Moonlight Knight's original idea, the meeting at this time and place should be the time when the Gotham world was under double attack by warlocks and conquerors, and it was also the time when Mason and others needed help the most.
In that case, I showed up as a powerful A-level team to talk about conditions, defected to help or secretly supported Mason, and I could easily negotiate a deal that was absolutely worthwhile.
As Mason expected, this "messenger of the gods" is not a pioneer firmly on the warlock's side. He has his own little thoughts and the gods behind him have quite "flexible" ethics and authorize him to act according to circumstances.
The interests of the envoy team and the warlock's interests are by no means consistent.
Although they apparently helped Warlock pass the invasion planning proposal in the council, they obviously still wanted to do some tricky work, such as hedging risks with two bets. The best ending is that Warlock stepped into the quagmire and was killed The world stalls the progress of the invasion.
In this way, warlocks who need foreign aid will have to sell their benefits to the gods.
In short, there are bureaus here.
The plan is very good and very executable, but there is one thing that is not good. The gods, including their messengers, have made an empirical mistake.
Changes come too fast.
A second ago, the world of Gotham was caught in the most critical moment by laughing wildly,
Next second guess what?
People directly turned Jedi into a big comeback.
Not only killed the warlock neatly, but now there are three big bosses who are trying to eliminate the clearers and conquerors that still exist in this world like a happy match.
The battle situation changed so rapidly that the decision-making speed of the gods could not keep up. Naturally, there was no time to adjust the strategy. Seeing that the time for the meeting was up, they could only bite the bullet and push the envoy out.
Without giving any strategy, let Moonlight Knight come over to talk about things.
He talked about delegating decision-making power, but in fact he found someone to take the blame.
"I guess, if we can't reach a good agreement here today, maybe within a few days, your head will be sent to my desk in the name of 'apology'."
Mason who jumped off the flying motorcycle was very relaxed. He stepped forward and looked at the Moonlight Knight whose face was covered by a strange white mask. He stretched out his hand and said in a low voice:
"They were terrified, right? They were thinking of using me or the warlocks to gain benefits for their own faction by getting involved in the leadership level of the Stars Council, but they didn't expect to get rid of it.
Maybe it was me, the 'bug', who showed too strong aggression and surprised the gods above the clouds? "
"hehe"
Moonlight Knight smiled awkwardly, held Mason's hand, and said dryly:
"Don't think too much, it's just a meeting between colleagues of the Stars Association, not as many twists and turns as you said. Speaking of which, isn't it an exchange of hostages?
Why don’t you see Black Adam”
"I've changed my mind. It's too risky to hand over the traitor to strangers whose enemies are unknown."
Mason's expression turned cold, he pulled his hand away from Moonlight Knight's hand, and said:
"What? Are you unhappy seeing me change my mind temporarily?"
How the **** am I happy?
Do you see a trace of happiness on my face?
Hey, you can donate your eyes to those in need if you don’t need them!
The Moonlight Knight, who was on fire in his heart, really wanted to draw out his Moon War Saber and finely chop the **** in front of him into a hundred catties of glutinous rice seedlings and put it in a lunch box with cartilage, but he really has the confidence to speak now.
Warlock's tragic death has sounded the alarm for him.
Just looking at the suspicious posture of the team members behind him at this time, it can be seen that they are under great pressure. I am afraid that Mason will call a big boss who is out of line and crush them here like bugs.
Then the God Envoy let out a dry laugh again from under the mask that did not change his expression:
"Hehe, think about it carefully, my previous request is indeed a bit difficult, you should think carefully. Now, I brought your people"
He waved his hand, and the magical Mary behind him, who is Shazam's sister from another world, grabbed the bruised Skrull Queen Vikram out of the air with a swipe.
The latter was obviously tortured and lost 70% of his life.
But it was obvious that she regained consciousness after proper first aid, and her injuries were not close to death. She was even changed into a festive red dress to cover up the blood on her body.
Empress Naskuru's green face was also blank at this time.
As a captive who failed to lurk, she couldn't understand what happened. Thirty minutes ago, she was hanged in a dark cell waiting to die. here.
"It's a serious injury."
Mason frowned and looked at Queen Skrull who was sent to him. He glanced at the Moonlight Knight beside him and said:
"Is this how the gods treat guests? I sent my servants to discuss cooperation matters with you. It's fine if you don't want to talk to me, but you actually tortured my messengers ruthlessly.
Tsk, the two armies are at war, and you don't understand the reason for not beheading the envoy? "
"Accidents! It's all accidents."
Moonlight Knight waved his hands and forcefully explained:
"We express regret for this embarrassing 'diplomatic accident', and have given Ms. Vikram enough compensation and obtained her understanding.
Ma'am, would you like to say something? You are so silent now, it seems that we are bullying you. "
He glanced at Vikram.
Queen Skrull touched the several full bags on her waist and nodded to Mason, indicating that under the apology of "full salary" and "by hundreds of millions of people" from the God Envoy team, the two sides have indeed reached a " agreement of understanding".
"Well, since the person involved is not going to pursue it, it would be considered rude for me to pester you any longer."
Mason snorted, and casually took the Super Skrul Spiritual Beacon from his right hand and threw it to Queen Vikram, as agreed before.
The latter immediately held this fetish that could rule the fate of all Skrulls in his hands, and very obediently handed over all the bags at his waist to the chief captain, and then silently retreated to the side.
For her, this matter has ended perfectly.
Although I was arrested and beaten, and I don’t know what happened halfway to change the situation, but now the result is good and everything is fine.
"Now that the misunderstandings have been resolved, let's talk about the business."
Moonlight Knight rubbed his hands, and completely stopped mentioning the "hostage exchange" mentioned earlier, as if he farted more than ten hours ago. He looked at Mason and said:
"We need to talk about two things. One is the existence of the God Envoy team in the Constellation. Uh, I mean, the existence of the new Constellation. The second is to convey the wishes of the gods to the future leader of the Constellation. congratulate!"
"I guess, you said the same thing to Warlock thirty minutes ago?"
Mason interrupted him with his hand, and asked the Moonlight Knight meaningfully. The latter sighed in embarrassment, deeply feeling that dealing with Mason, a clever little ghost, was really unpleasant.
At the same time, he also realized that it would be difficult for him to gain the upper hand in the language competition with Mason with his own intelligence, so he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and decided to give the job to a more suitable person.
"Stephen! You come!"
He called out to himself.
The next moment, the moonlight cloth strip wrapped around his body that was wrapped in a battle suit quickly pulled away and rotated to complete his "transformation" under the cover of the moonlight cloak.
The warrior-like Moonlight Knight turned into a gentleman in a suit and leather shoes.
This guy no longer wears a hood or cape. He is wearing a moon-white suit with a fluffy bag and has a red rose in the jacket pocket. His face is still wrapped in white gauze, but the lines of his face are obviously much softer.
"Yo, hello, Mr. Mason."
The familiar-looking guy changed his embarrassing posture just now, moved his body very relaxedly, and stretched out his hand to Mason again and said:
"Let's get to know each other again. My name is Stephen Grant. Among Moonlight Knight's many personalities, he is the best at brainstorming and negotiating. It was Mark who was talking to you just now.
That guy can be seen as a violent maniac just by his appearance, and he can't do the delicate work of negotiating terms.
I said it all, he should have put me in charge the second the situation changed. "
Behind Mason, he folded his arms and tried hard to pretend that he was a strong bodyguard, but Harry, who was constantly blowing pink bubble gum because of boredom, stared at his head and screamed:
"Look! Quinn, our patient!"
"Well, this lady seems to have multiple personalities too, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Stephen Grant, who called himself "Mr. Knight", politely took off the flowers on his chest and handed them to Harry to express his kindness. He explained:
"But I don't only have two personalities, I also have a very, very terrible **** who was pressed deep in my heart by Mark and I, and I didn't dare to let him out easily to avoid bad things."
"Yeah, that's what I did to Quinn before!"
Harry's eyes were shining like "patient communication", and said to Mr. Knight:
"Quinn is a big villain, and she has been bewitching me to do terrible things before, and I can suppress her only by relying on my passionate love for Mr. K.
But then we reconciled.
Halley is cute and cunning, Quinn is cunning and cute, the two of me are the most powerful me together.
You should try it too! "
"We tried, and it sucked."
Mr. Knight sighed.
Although he would like to talk more with Harley, the "patient", and share the model and experience of getting along with each other with the sub-personality, but he obviously knows that this is more important than the business.
"It's okay, you can continue talking."
Mason next to him waved his hands and said:
"I'm not in a hurry at all! No kidding, listening to you talking about the happy things between these mental patients is much more interesting than talking about terms with the gods who always want to gain benefits.
Shall we change places?
I know Gotham has a nice cafe, you and Mark will love the setting, don't worry if Jack pops out of nowhere! I have a way of dealing with that cold-blooded scum. "
While speaking, Mason touched the black death sword · Ragnarok Gun at his waist, and showed a gentle smile to Mr. Knight in front of him.
But it was this smile that made Mr. Knight Stephen swallow his saliva.
He is not Mason. If he fights alone, the enhanced version of Moonlight Knight is about four or six times better than the full-state Mason, but the gun on Mason's waist is too shameless.
If the weapon dedicated to anti-divinity is really used, the entire team of angels will easily be wiped out here.
Obviously, in the short confrontation last time, Mason didn't show his true skills at all. This guy is simply a "natural enemy" for all guys who use divine power but are not strong enough.
"Okay, okay, put your frightening little pistol on your waist, and don't scare us poor people, Your Excellency Mason."
Mr. Knight made a gesture, and his team members left the Rock of Eternity through the World Gate. Obviously, the following conversation was not what they should have heard.
This is not a harsh class rule, but a proper protection.
For these messengers of the gods, knowing too many secrets of the gods will never end well.
"Although Mark is a **** who doesn't understand language arts, he did explain the two most important things today."
Mr. Knight whispered:
"You are right, Your Majesty Mason, the victory in this world shocked the gods, the military and strategic victory came second, the main reason is that the three extraordinary powers you summoned cannot be ignored.
On their own they are good enough to get into wanting the Council to be a strong MP, but now they are at your disposal.
This state of affairs has surpassed the significance of the outcome of this war. Your Excellency, I have come here to clarify these truths. The gods behind me are eager to know your purpose. "
"Is Odin one of you?"
Mason answered irrelevantly. His question made Moonlight Knight hesitate, then nodded and said:
"All the gods you know that exist in legends, those powerful creatures who will be born in the past, present and future and have been born with the name of "God" are our members.
But don't be surprised.
Just as the Stars Club has only three great mentors but they can still engage in an astonishing infighting on such a scale, the gods are all arrogant guys, and they will not be so willing to obey the command and control of the same kind.
We are very disunited.
The scale of the internal hills far exceeds the scale of the Stars Association and the Council of Hope. In fact, because of the existence of the network of divine power in different worlds and planes, we may have become a similar large organization. However, from the concept of "us" From that moment on, true unity was never achieved.
We are the ones who help Warlocks to pass the war resolution in the council, we are the ones who hope to seek a balance of power between Warlocks and you to gain benefits, and it is we who look forward to seeing blood flow into rivers and chaos rampant, eager to overthrow the stars will appear The orderly rebels are still us. "
Mr. Knight sighed and said:
"Our greatest enemy is never outside, our greatest enemy is ourselves, this collection of gods that sounds powerful has been hopeless from the very beginning.
And the envoy team represents those who are truly eager to do something and have the strongest execution ability in the concept of "Gods". "
"Thank you for your explanation."
Mason kept this important information in mind, then looked at Moonlight Knight and said:
"If you want to know my purpose, you have to talk about your own purpose first, right? I think this is the prerequisite for a frank conversation."
"exist!"
Mr. Knight Steve stretched out a finger, and said in a serious tone:
"Everything is for existence, and existence is everything. The purpose of the power we represent has always been pure. Even ants steal their lives, let alone a life that is born powerful and immortal?
Everyone is struggling, and the gods are not that different from us on a cosmic level.
You don't have to doubt the correctness of this statement, this is what Kong Su told me himself.
The autistic person is ugly and deceitful but generally not very deceitful.
So in order to exist, we can help others, we can be ruthless, we can turn to the dark, we can also stab in the back.
Right now, your influence is about to be established inside and outside the Stars Club. For those of us who are struggling for survival, there is no harm in building a good relationship with you. One more friend and one more way. "
"Very reasonable reason."
Mason nodded, then looked at Moonlight Knight and said:
"I will destroy the Constellation and end the dark age."
"hiss"
This straightforward answer made Moonlight Knight gasp. He hesitated for nearly ten seconds before saying:
"It's a terrifying and ambitious ideal, but it's not unacceptable. After all, only when the stars fall, can the gods replace them with the net of divine power."
"It doesn't matter, who is in power in the post-Stellar Society era is not my concern,"
Mason shook his head and said:
"I don't care what will happen in the era after the stars will be destroyed. I don't have the ability to plan so far into the future.
You just need to answer me, can you and the gods behind you help me? "
"Can."
Moonlight Knight nodded and said:
"But you and I both know that the real problem is not the Stellaris, but the impact. Do you have any refreshing solutions to this core problem?"
"I'm still trying, and I'm not sure."
Mason shook his head and said:
"But if I really do it, you can only weld the car door and follow me to the dark, go back and think about it carefully, and discuss it with your partners.
This is a big deal after all, don't jump to conclusions. "
The captain stretched out his hand, put it on Mr. Knight's shoulder, and said in a low voice:
"I will look forward to our next meeting, ugly and cunning Your Excellency Kong Su."
