Chapter 626 92. Fortress of Stars: The City of Faded Gorgeous Reflections
"The Star Emperor's Heart is running well, and the engine power has increased to 157%! We are crossing another plane rift, because the impact of the impact will make the next journey slightly bumpy.
But good news folks!
The next stop is Shinsekai!
Wait patiently for fifteen minutes, and we will arrive at our destination. "
Barbara's voice resounded in various areas of the astral spaceship through the communication system of Fox's Nest, causing bursts of cheers.
The experimental assistants who had just been released from their respective detention areas did not understand what had happened, but this did not prevent them from realizing that the situation had turned around through the still smoky cabin and the rebel machines returning to the mechanical center.
As a comprehensive research facility, of course it is impossible for the Fox Nest to only have a scientific research team composed of geniuses from all over the world, and there is also a whole logistics force to provide various kinds of help for these researchers.
The council took almost everything that could be taken away when they evacuated the fox nest, but left these loyal and hardworking servants in their respective dormitories.
Its meaning is self-explanatory.
In this chaotic era, human life is indeed worthless.
"Everyone has been released, and everyone is in high spirits. We have selected several highly respected researchers to form a temporary management team, and are organizing manpower to repair the intentionally damaged power cabin and restore the connection between the core engine and various functional areas. connect."
Natasha Stark walked into the now blocked medical area, and she saw Mason, who was checking the bodies of the rescued prisoners, holding a cup of instant coffee that he hadn't seen for several days.
The kanban lady of the Stark Legion leaned against the door and said to Mason:
"Of course, there are also many energy researchers who are very interested in the temporary core you use, but I guess, that thing should not be something that can be used for research at will?"
"I wouldn't mind putting together a team of professionals to crack the mysteries of Core Fire, as long as brave researchers aren't afraid of being captured by Unicron's destructive will and becoming oil geeks calling on the Mechanic Gods.
But that's not the most urgent thing right now. "
Mason stood up straight, prepared a small bottle of potion with skillful movements, poured it into the glucose solution in the hanging bottle beside him, and walked to the next bed, which was lying on the next bed, Mordok No. 4, who was only breathing a little.
He said to Natasha without looking back:
"The thinking extraction devices remaining in these people's brains are failing, if the gadget can't be taken out before the situation worsens, these guys will die.
They need to operate immediately, I guess the medical scientists in the fox's den are not busy right now? Or are you going to let me be in charge of such a huge operation alone? "
"I'll immediately call the medical team to change shifts."
Natasha stood up straight and gave a heel-touching military salute, which fully demonstrated her unruly character as a member of Stark, but before she left, she still asked in a low voice:
"How are you going to arrange us?
Some colleagues who like to think too much have been asking me about this matter. Although the entire Stark family absolutely trusts you, smart guys always like to think too much. This is nature. "
"I don't intend to house you."
Mason turned back and said:
"You are all adults with IQs far exceeding ordinary people, you should learn to find a job that can support your family in the new world.
The K Legion is not the Council of Hope, we don’t have so many resources to support you. "
"Um?"
Natasha was really surprised now, she widened her eyes and said:
"So you mean, let us go? No way, so generous?
Although everyone is extremely angry after knowing the truth that the Council of Hope regards us as pigs to monopolize the development of technology in the dark age, but to be honest, if it is working for you, the savior, I guess not many people will really of rejection.
You shouldn't be unable to understand the considerable benefits that an entire fox's lair will bring under your command? "
"Uh, I think it is necessary to give you a popular science about the operation mode of the K Legion."
Mason rubbed his forehead and said to Natasha Stark:
"I am the leader of the K Legion, but I am only responsible for making plans and ensuring logistics. I don't know how to intervene in this kind of adjustment of the organizational structure, so if the world rulers of the Rebel Alliance want to recruit you, I will not say Allow or deny.
That's between you and them.
understand?
This is just a loose alliance of interests.
Also, what did you mean by that just now?
Would you all be willing to serve me? But most of you don't even know who I am, do you? Are you willing to sell your career just out of favor or favor?
This is not in line with the cold and arrogant nature of people with high IQs in my impression. "
"Indeed, if it's just to save us from the cage, it won't make most guys bow down. I can't understand what kind of dog temper we are doing research.
To say that arrogance is an evaluation of high EQ, and it is not an exaggeration to call a fool with low EQ. "
Natasha flicked her proud long golden hair, she squeezed her eyes and said to Mason:
"However, your situation is not within the normal range.
Look, so many of us have stayed in this astral fortress for seventeen years. Although the topics and projects we study are different every day, all the research results are for the same purpose.
Shock!
This is the only reason for all of us from countless worlds to gather here, and so many of us have studied for seventeen years, invested countless manpower and material resources, but failed to achieve results. It was resolved in a few months.
Most importantly, you not only proposed the protocol, but also designed the trial process without our participation and successfully completed the trial.
You actually thoughtfully set up 4 different observation samples and all achieved 100% success.
What do you think they will think of you in this situation? "
Having said that, Tony Six shook her head, she pouted and said:
"It's no exaggeration to say that in the eyes of some radical guys, you are already the out-and-out embodiment of the 'God on Earth', Mason, let alone serve you.
You just say that the next goal is to overthrow the council, believe it or not, they immediately picked up their guns and joined the army?
Don’t think that a person with a high IQ must be rational. The more talented you are, the easier it is to get into a dead end.
So, consider my suggestion again, as long as you ask, I can’t guarantee 100%, but at least 90% of researchers are willing to invest in your command without salary. "
"Um"
Mason thought for a while, shook his head and said:
"I still refuse, it sounds so troublesome, and my research career has come to an end, the fusion project has been a great success, the hope of reversing the dark age has been forged, and the rest of the work will be handed over to more professional people Bar.
I'm going to focus on my remaining tasks.
So, don't reveal that I'm also on this ship for now, okay? I don't want to be stalked by crazy fans or something, and besides, call the doctors!
Didn't you see that Bruce Banner started vomiting blood on the 13th? "
"Good good good."
Natasha left quickly, and Mason stepped forward to stop the bleeding of the scrawny Dr. Banner. After the first batch of doctors changed and rushed over, Mason hid in the crowd and quickly left.
But he didn't go far, but came to a small cubicle in the medical area.
Zod and Kara stood here like door gods on the left and right. When they saw Mason approaching, they got out of the way. Kara whispered to him:
"The situation inside is pretty bad, you are busy."
"I know, guessed it."
Mason complained, pushed the door open and saw two supermen placed on both sides of the room, one on the left and one on the right.
It’s okay for the unrighteous Superman who was placed in the biological cabin of the red sun lamp to be beaten to death and fainted. Da Chao’s condition is also very bad, but he is okay, not unconscious, only a small half of the bones on his body are broken.
He's lying there with his teeth bared and shining a yellow sunlamp.
"You like to show off, don't you?"
Mason stepped forward to take out the bone setting and suture tools, and he said to Dachao:
I said, when I gave you the sun ray, I made it clear that it was for bursting seeds in a critical moment, not for you to use it as a combat power booster. "
"The lord Superman can't hold back, he will definitely kill the unjust Superman. In his eyes, this guy who has abandoned all bottom lines is the source of evil and darkness that must be purified."
Da Chao bared his teeth and said:
"But I don't think he's too bad to be cured. It's just that the pain of loss drives him crazy. I want to exile him to the phantom space. Maybe thousands of years are enough for him to calm down and reflect on his life dominated by violence. .”
"Wake up! You can't keep people in that shabby place!"
Mason helped Dachao cut the bruised wound with a kryptonite scalpel, and said:
"Be careful that another villain will jump out and give you the whole job, then it will be another disaster."
"Won't!"
Da Chao shook his head and said:
"I will hand it over to Lord Superman to take care of it. The two of us have already agreed to form a 'Kryptonian Mutual Aid Group'. Zod, Kara, Bizarro, and Joe are all members.
We all have our own psychological problems, maybe we can help each other, and the first helper of the mutual aid group is him. "
Clark looked at the unjust Superman at the other end of the room surrounded by red sun lights.
He said:
"I believe that there is still a fire in his heart, and I believe that I myself will not sink to the point of no cure."
"I think it's a bad idea, because a group of people with psychological problems getting together doesn't tend to make things better, but then again, you Kryptonians have to figure it out on your own."
Mason shrugged and said:
"Don't forget, General Zod and his group are still at ease in the Gotham world. Now that the continental shelf has been deformed after the fusion of the world, there is so much more folding space. It may not be so easy for you to find them."
"That's not my job, Mason."
Da Chao stretched his body, closed his eyes and whispered:
"Your Zod will be happy to help him, and my cousin will also help him, but when I knocked down the injustice Superman just now, he revealed a piece of news to me.
He is not the leader of the Twelfth Conquerors, but their leader is indeed another Superman, one stronger and more dangerous than himself.
And the leader's think tank is a vampire Batman, and his adjutant, a Wonder Woman born of a new protoss.
To be honest, sometimes I can't help but think, how many chaotic combinations of the three of us exist in so many parallel worlds? And in so many worlds, no matter what our identities and origins, the three of us will eventually become partners and friends?
Is this also an established destiny? "
"Your question is too profound, I'm sorry I can't answer it."
Mason had nothing to say about this, he left a few bottles of medicine and told Chao to take it on time, and then turned around to see the situation of the unrighteous Superman.
But before he started to check, the Foxnest spacecraft, which was traveling faster than the speed of light, suddenly started to slow down. After passing through another eye of time and space in front of him, the new Osborne Tower star bloomed in front of him.
This moon-sized planetary spacecraft is of course impossible to directly enter the earth's atmosphere, and even approaching it will cause a gravitational imbalance and cause catastrophic consequences.
However, this high-tech fortress has a constant gravity device covering the hull, allowing it to dock smoothly on the lunar orbit without interfering with the earth-moon system.
Before the Fox Nest Fortress came to a stop, a large group of fanatical researchers had already gathered in the star port and got on their shuttles, going to conduct field investigations on the fused earth.
"Sweetie, we found the folding space where Fort Stars is located!"
After entering the communication range, Harry's communication rang immediately, making Mason smile and asked:
"This is good news, didn't you go in and take a look?"
"Don't dare to go in."
Harry said sharply:
"Come back and take a look, Starsburg is different from before, it feels like it's haunted, Zha Kang said that this must be some kind of sinister magic of Mephisto.
But the old wizard Shazam and many people have not come out yet, and the gate of the world cannot be connected to the interior of the Starsburg. We are preparing to send some cannon fodder who are not afraid of death. Uh, I mean, warriors!
We want to select a group of fearless warriors to go in to see the situation. Ciri said that she would take the lead in going in, but we couldn't persuade them. "
"Wait for me to pass."
Mason frowned after hearing the news.
When the old devil threw the Fort of Stars and knocked down the city of Attilan, he felt that this behavior was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface. Now it seems that his prediction seems to have come true.
The captain told the Krypton trio about the situation on the ground, and asked them to send Dachao back to the world of Gotham to recuperate his wounds and to be a jailer to guard the unjust Superman, and then twisted a hatch to set it as the gate of the world. Projection, opening the door and entering the starlight sent Mason outside the Fortress of Stars.
A large group of people has already gathered here, all members of the Stars Club, ranging from Grand Mentor to C-level members, Mason quickly discovered Ciri and Liana and the members of the K team.
He glanced at the Castle of Stars as he walked over.
In this folding space, the castle on the mountainside and the surrounding snow-capped mountains are placed on the vast sea, becoming an isolated island in the sea. The main body is not damaged much, and the fairytale-like scenery around it has not changed.
But it does lose something, which makes it feel awkward at first glance.
"Is it a shadow?"
Mason walked up to Harry, nodded slightly to Ciri, then looked at Zack Kang, and said:
"The castle lost its shadow?"
"As expected of the captain, his eyes are sharp."
Zha Kang, who was measuring the rotation of the magic power around him, patted the horse slightly, and then said seriously:
"It was some kind of very clever magic. Mephisto threw the entity of Stars Fort into this world, but the shadow of Stars Fort still stayed where it was.
If I'm not wrong, there must be some kind of connection between these two areas.
It's not sure if this is a conspiracy by the old devil, but you have to venture in if you want to find out. "
"We can't get in touch with old Shazam."
Shiri said next to him:
"He must still be alive, and the other eight A-level teams and some B-level teams are still staying in the Fort of Stars. They may also be trapped."
"Have Hei Qiyi come over and have a look?"
Mason glanced at Zha Kang, who curled his lips and said:
"I invited him, and he was told not to bother him with such trivial matters, and he almost ate me up. I suspect that lonely guy had already noticed the strangeness of Starsburg before, and he just didn't intend to take care of it.
So I don't think it's too dangerous. "
"Then go in and have a look."
Hearing that Hei Qiqi said that this is a "small matter" that does not require his intervention, Mason has a solid idea in his heart. He looks around and says to the people around him:
"Don't go to too many people, if it is a trap, it will be very troublesome, choose a powerful character to go in with me."
"Sweetie, your injury is still not healed."
Harry said something worried, but Mason stared at the castle that had lost its shadow in front of him, he shook his head and said:
"This is a message from Mephisto to me. I have to go and see for myself to find out what the old devil wants to do. Instead, you have to stay here.
If something happens to me, it's up to you guys to fish me out.
I am worried about the others. "
"Uh-huh!"
Harry was moved when she heard this. She and Quinn looked at each other, then patted her chest and said:
"You can definitely trust me on this, sweetheart! Take the Deadpool team, they are all good cannon fodder first-class, and then let Ciri accompany you."
"Um?"
Mason and Lord Hunter were stunned at the same time, and then heard Harry say seriously:
"If something happens to you, I'm sure Ciri will desperately fish you out, but not necessarily the others. You have to take her, otherwise I don't feel at ease."
