Chapter 514 60. Confrontation of Destiny·Are the devils as rich and generous as you?
"Then the situation is like this, and the current situation is clear to everyone."
In a meeting room in the Osborne Tower, Mason stood in front of a large optical projection screen and briefly introduced the main points of the situation he had listed to the K Legion members who were packed in front of them.
He looked at the team members he had handpicked and several "non-staff personnel" who had been invited, and after seeing that everyone was listening very carefully, he nodded in satisfaction and said:
"Now I need everyone to speak freely and have a team discussion on the current situation to determine our next course of action."
"Is this how your K-team operates?"
Before Mason finished speaking, Sister Ka, who was wearing casual clothes and travel sunglasses, folded her arms and said:
"I thought you invited me here today for a celebration meeting, and you came here with the mentality of drinking and enjoying yourself, but you came to the meeting instead?
If I liked meetings, I wouldn't have resigned from the company where meetings are held from morning to night every day. "
"Yes, yes, sister Ka is right!"
Harley next to him threw a piece of bubble gum into his mouth, and echoed while chewing:
"I also think that after this victory, we should enjoy some happiness, even if it's only for a few hours, everyone is very tired, sweetheart, you see Kang Zha is almost asleep."
"He was falling asleep because he was so scumbag, it had nothing to do with the meeting itself."
Mason sighed.
He didn't expect the always reliable Sister Ka to be a prick, but thinking about it, it's the Spartan custom.
Every time there is a big victory, you have to drink, when a child is born, you have to drink, and when someone dies, you still have to drink. The banquet is part of their traditional culture, and Mason glanced at the crowd in front of him. He really felt the fatigue and anxiety on the faces of his team members At this time, the advantages of a relaxation outweigh the disadvantages.
So after a few seconds of thinking, he snapped his fingers and said to everyone:
"After the meeting, let's go to Laisheng Bar. I will inform Miss Huazi to prepare for the reception work. I will not return tonight if I am not drunk!"
"Ha, that's right!"
Sister Ka is finally satisfied, and she is also quite satisfied with Mason's character of listening to advice. She leaned on the chair with her arms folded and stopped talking. As for the situation or something
Tch, what else do you need to consider?
Isn’t it enough to draw a knife and chop all the way?
The just-concluded war has proved that the alliance of the five worlds is a force that cannot be underestimated. To be honest, even without the appearance of the three big bosses in the final stage, the Allied Forces of the Five Realms can still defeat the Conqueror and the Cleaner, but it will take some time .
And that was already a large-scale invasion that I hoped the council could organize. Facts have proved that the combat effectiveness of this small group formed by Mason is higher than Sister Ka's cognition.
She has no doubts about her combat effectiveness.
But the problem is that the current situation is not only related to combat effectiveness, and it is not just about being able to fight.
“The problem is the external environment.”
The old man sitting in the back row said in a low tone:
"This victory is certainly worth remembering, but we don't have enough channels to spread the news of the victory further. If the current parallel world system is a field of public opinion, then the general situation is still in the hands of the Council of Hope, and we cannot compete with them in this field .
A victory that cannot be publicized is not enough to win us more potential allies. The impact of this victory in the parallel world system is not as great as we imagined.
publicity
This is also a very important part.
In the current situation of full-scale confrontation, those worlds oppressed by the stars will not know that they have a second choice. "
"The old man is right!"
Judy immediately agreed, but the tech girl didn't really have her own thoughts on this matter.
Wearing a pair of special glasses, she conveyed the meeting in front of her to the leader of Mikoshi World in a "real-time live broadcast", and used it as a "microphone" to convey Batemos' thoughts here.
It didn't need to be so troublesome, there is enough technology over there to produce real-time projections for participating in the meeting, but because Mikoshi World is deeply involved in this war, the exile spacecraft carrying Mikoshi's mainframe will be in the process of "positioning" Face deep dive" lest the signal be caught by the conqueror.
It is also helpless for Judy, who doesn't care much about these things, to serve as a representative.
She pushed her glasses, like a translator, relaying the text that appeared in front of her eyes:
"Public opinion will become a weapon to determine the outcome of the war when the situation is evenly matched, so we cannot give up our efforts in this area. Mikoshi World will use our influence on the data network to spread the war in the Gotham world to as many worlds as possible. , but others must act too.
With the help of the reorganization of the Star Club, the influence of our alliance will be spread out.
Hopefully the council has many, many worlds to provide them with resources, and the loss from this victory isn't even a drop in the bucket, so we can't be complacent about it. "
"And our own problems!"
Damian, who is becoming more and more like a captain, also raised his hand, and he said seriously:
"This battle exposed many problems of the coalition forces. The forces of the five worlds basically cannot cooperate effectively, and it is too weak to rely on Xiaoshan's cosmic treadmill to teleport through time and space.
Once this method is blocked again, the connection between us will be severed with terrible results. "
"The cosmic tuning fork is being tested and restarted by researchers."
Mason pushed his frame and said:
"The power of this thing is beyond imagination. Its existence can basically guarantee that there will no longer be expulsion in wars, but Damian's thinking is correct. Little Flash has become the most important in our resistance system, and it is also The most vulnerable.
What's more terrible is that he has been exposed in this battle. I have enough reasons to think that once the next conflict resumes, the attack against the Flash will definitely be given priority. "
"I'm not that easily defeated!"
Xiao Shan, who ran over wearing a jacket and jeans today, pouted and said:
“A speedster has always been able to take care of himself.”
"That's what I said, but if you discover a weakness and don't protect it, that's not courage, it's stupidity."
Agent Hill crossed her legs, rubbed her chin and looked at Xiao Shan. After a while, she said:
"Had to make a 'backup' for The Flash, but the Speed Force doesn't exist in our world and Osborne Tower's"
"We don't have any there either."
Sister Ka sighed and said:
"This thing is very powerful, but it is not the basic rule of parallel worlds, and it does not work in every world. Mason is right, the cute and kind-hearted little Flash has become our Achilles' heel.
This issue must be resolved before the next conflict. "
"Then find more speedsters! Xiao Shan's space-time alien, and form a lightning family that can manipulate the speed force."
Judy repeats the words of Buttermos again, she says:
"Distribute the responsibilities of Little Flash to more people, and at the same time copy the cosmic treadmill and make a super speed force storage device to ensure that this system can be activated at any time we need it."
"give it to me."
Very low-key, the hunter who appeared here held a coffee cup and whispered:
"I will sort out the coordinates of the world where the Speed Force exists and hand it over to Mason, and the K team will be designated as a 'special team' and will no longer participate in ordinary pioneering operations.
Your next task is to enter these worlds, find those speedsters and members of the Lightning family and convince them to join us. "
She raised her head and glanced at Mason, her face was quite haggard.
When the two looked at each other, it was as if they had seen something weird and they fell in love with each other. It was obvious that the impact of that night's impulsive behavior was still in effect.
This put the two people who had worked together perfectly in an awkward situation. This scene made Harley have strange eyes and started whispering to Quinn, who was not here in the future.
"The training of the servant army also needs to be put on the agenda!"
Captain Jack was flamboyantly wearing his captain’s uniform to attend the meeting. He took out a thick plan booklet, opened a page and read:
"The manpower provided by Osborne Tower alone is no longer enough to deal with the current situation. Therefore, after discussions with the three senior commanders of the servant army and the nominal leader, Your Excellency the Green Goblin, we hope to complete the battle against the Alliance Army in the next month. integrated training.
Taking the current K Legion servant army as the backbone, absorbing assassins from the Isu world as scouts, elite agents from SHIELD as mothership operators and vehicle providers, and delegating high-quality fighters from the Mikoshi world to become the main combat force, intelligent AI is responsible for the construction and protection of the communication and command system, and then assists the commandos composed of superheroes.
In this way, we will not only complete the complementarity of the superior forces of each world, but also make this special army a rapid response force to deal with possible critical situations. "
"This proposal is unexpectedly reliable, Jack."
Master Catwoman sat on the chair in a charming posture, and gave Captain Jack a thumbs up. The latter smiled and closed the plan that was completely summarized and written by Lord Green Goblin.
He just came here to be a microphone, which is similar to Judy's responsibilities at this time.
"Do you have any comments?"
Mason looked at the representatives of other worlds.
If no objection is expressed, the proposal is considered passed. He looked down at the time on his watch, and said to everyone in front of him:
"There is one last issue that needs to be discussed, that is, our high-end power. I have talked with the three members of the Ultimate K team. They have confirmed that they will not participate in ordinary affairs, so we will not be able to participate in most of the conflicts that may arise in the future. Expect them to have another 'Séance of the Machine' type of problem solving.
High-end power still needs to be absorbed and cultivated. If individual power cannot be iteratively upgraded quickly, then a solution must be found from the outside.
I need you to submit a list of applications for personal use of equipped weapons and auxiliary combat items, as well as ideas and suggestions after the meeting, and I will be personally responsible for the progress of this aspect in the next period of time.
Equipment is also a part of strength.
Let’s stop here for today’s discussion. If there is anything else, I will contact the person in charge separately. Everyone pack up and go to Laisheng Bar to attend the celebration dinner.
I'll prepare here, and then I'll meet you all. "
Mason smiled, he waved his fist, and said:
"Leave these troubles in the future for tomorrow, and then enjoy the day everyone has fought so hard to get back, and don't get drunk tonight!"
"Ha, this makes sense."
Sister Ka laughed and got up, and swaggered away surrounded by a group of little girl fans. Harley ran over and nibbled on Mason's cheek, then quietly looked in the direction of the hunter, only to find that Ciri had already left.
Oh, what a swearing-in for nothing, what a cunning opponent! You silver-haired old girl!
"Is Quinn still not well?"
Mason packed up the files and asked, Harry pouted and said:
"Secret, she is free to show up whenever she wants. Anyway, don't think about these headaches tonight. I'll wait for you at the bar."
After finishing speaking, she slapped her boyfriend's buttocks hard, and then left here humming with her hands behind her back.
Mason was the only one left in the conference hall.
He turned off the projector and put his notebook into his luggage, but instead of leaving immediately, he leaned against the table in an empty place and lit a cigarette for himself.
The players can enjoy leisure, but he can't stop.
Recreation is a luxury, especially for the current situation that is actually not optimistic.
"Snapped"
The door of the conference hall was pushed open, Mason didn't look back, he asked:
"Did you forget something?"
"Well, no, I came here specially to attend the K team's combat meeting, but it seems that the long journey made me seem to be a little late, and everyone dismissed the meeting, what a pity."
An old and deep voice sounded behind Mason, with the elegance of the old London Union Jack, but it was not the same as Afu's standard London accent. When this guy spoke, he had an unignorable momentum.
Mason stood up, took off the cigarette from the corner of his mouth, turned around amidst the rising smoke rings, and looked at the old man behind him in a retro suit and short cape, holding a cane in his hand.
It looks like an old gentleman who has walked out of history. At that stop, he can interpret the demeanor Mason hopes he should have when he gets old.
The latter was smiling at him.
It looks like a kind and imposing old man, but the lights in the meeting room elongate his shadow and project it on the ground, showing a ghost with teeth and claws that seems to swallow everything.
He has a well-groomed goatee and black gloves.
There was an exquisite skull inlaid on the top of the black wooden cane in his hand, which looked like a work of art, but it added a touch of evil temperament to this person that was just right to shock people without frightening others.
Mason is observing the visitor, and the visitor is also observing Mason.
His gray eyes looked up and down Mason, and finally nodded critically and said:
"It's not bad, it's just that you are too young and look not stable enough, but your temperament is changing, child, maybe it is because you have experienced certain things that made you realize some heavier things.
It was like a jar of fine wine fermented in the dark, very much like the wise and desperate Strange back then.
Hello, Mason Cooper.
Need I introduce myself? "
"No, not necessary."
Mason took a deep breath to calm down his turbulent mind. He looked at the uninvited old man in front of him, bowed slightly to the latter, and said softly:
"Hello, Your Excellency Fate, are you coming to punish rebellion just after waking up? This kind of thing does not require you to go there yourself, just an order, and I am happy to go to see you."
"By the way, bring the most dangerous group of guys you can find to rush into my room and kill me who is not fully awake on my warm bed?
No, no sane devil would do something like suicide. "
Mephisto stepped forward slowly, his left fingers slid across the untied chair one by one, and the collision of the cane with the ground made a rhythmic sound.
What came here was just an astral projection without any entity, but it undoubtedly showed the aura of the great devil hidden deep in the darkness.
He stood in front of Mason. It wasn't until then that Mason noticed that there was a red spot of light shining like magma ash deep in the latter's gray eyes.
It’s like the will-o’-the-wisps you see when walking at night, or the lone wolf you encounter when trekking on the snowy field.
He said:
"I'm here to meet the most outstanding young people cultivated in my organization, and by the way, I'd like to ask if Lord Mason intends to take over Strange's duties.
To put it simply, I am here to recruit. "
The old devil smiled, took out a blank scroll from his arms, pulled it away, and suspended it in front of Mason. He then took out a pen and handed it to Mason, saying:
"Treatment, position, salary, benefits. Write whatever you want. I've already signed my name at the bottom corner. Poor old devil has such a small fortune in front of your eyes. Take whatever you fancy.
Oh, right. "
Mephisto smiled, and said softly:
"Including the soul deposited in me by Ms. Xilia Fiona Allen Lianlun.
As long as you speak, Mason, I will return her to you with a smile, so that you don't have to go through that painful choice again, and let that proud lady be your plaything partner willingly.
Even the order to dissolve the Constellation can be written, I have only one request.
you! "
He narrowed his eyes and said:
"I need a talent like you. I am generous and willing to give everything for this. Why don't you think about it?"
