Chapter 711 9. Just a doomsday ark? No! Don't underestimate your opponent
Mason stated his plan straight to the point, and told Luthor very directly that he really wanted to mix in the attack of the rebels in this world on the rule of the council on a whim.
It sounds very casual. If ordinary people say this, they will probably be kicked out by Luthor, and they suddenly have an idea and risk being kicked out to participate in resistance activities?
Your whim is really a bit powerful.
Then if it’s time for action and you think about it on a whim and don’t plan to participate, what will we do?
This is not a dinner treat, but a real fight! And if an operation is unsuccessful, it means that all previous preparations will be in vain.
What's more, he is not familiar with this enthusiastic and famous young man in front of him. Those hearsay information cannot be used as the basis for action planning.
No matter how you look at it, the risks of working with Mason are too great.
The elderly Luthor instinctively refused, but before he could speak, he glanced at Mason again.
He knows the great things this young man has done in the past few months. Although it is equivalent to being trapped in the core world of the council, whether a person is important to an organization can be judged through some clues.
Especially for a smart guy like Luthor, just looking at the surge in the frequency of the name Mason Cooper appearing in the council's internal documents, you know that this guy has definitely become a top member of the current crumbling Hope Council The absolute natural enemy in.
It is absolutely impossible for such a person to say and do what he said and did was a temporary idea as he said.
Maybe Mason really has a whole idea and plan?
Thinking of this, Luther suppressed the idea of refusing again, and he made a "please" gesture, which meant to ask Mason to tell his plan in detail for his own reference.
It doesn't hurt to listen anyway.
By the way, if there are additional conditions, you can also say it together.
For a wise man like Old Luthor who has seen big storms, experienced near-death and even raised a Kryptonian with his own hands, he believes in the exchange of benefits rather than passion.
Although it sounds realistic, after stripping away the influence of emotions, those things that are really beneficial to both parties are worth doing without worrying about being stabbed in the back.
"My idea is very simple, so simple that I can finish it in one sentence."
Mason lit a cigarette, pulled out his chair and sat opposite Luther, he said:
"I am currently a special envoy of the Council's Garden World, and I was invited to participate in tomorrow's regular world meeting. Although I have never participated in a similar high-level meeting, I heard that it was a waste of time with extremely high specifications.
But the point is that this kind of regular meeting will often have many garden world emissaries participating, and they are either one of the principal groups of various garden worlds, or they are inextricably linked with those groups.
Through their relationship, they can quickly contact the huge world system under the council, directly affecting trillions of lives.
I have my career and it is advancing steadily, and although I came here alone to settle these grievances with my own hands, I am willing to add bricks and tiles to the cause I serve if it can help.
And rather than verbal pleadings, I think a major rebellion in the heart of the Council will make those envoys see more clearly the decay and decay of the system they serve.
This is much more effective than me wasting my saliva to make a small composition with tens of thousands of words. "
"Well, this reason is very reasonable. If I were in your position, I don't think I would miss this opportunity."
Luther nodded and made a comment.
Mason probably saw his suspicions, so he deliberately explained the reason for his actions.
He didn't have to do this. The identity of the honorary leader of the neo-utopia project, which is currently in full swing, is very different from that of a person who is hiding in a certain world to resist, but Mason is willing to explain, which makes Luthor feel a little bit respect.
It is good to have this attitude.
Old Luther took a sip of his wine, thought for a while, and said:
"If we decide to act, I will try my best to ensure that those envoys are not harmed, and they will send your thoughts and thoughts to the distant world.
This is the most sincere guarantee I can give, let's talk about something pragmatic, what about your plan? "
"It's easy."
Mason snapped his fingers and said:
"Tomorrow, I will go to the parliament and make some noise there to help you get involved with the garrison in Hope City, so that you can communicate with the outside world and move around in the city.
Whether you want to blow up or burn this place, occupy or overthrow it is up to you.
I just have one request.
Don't kill too many people.
Those who can be gathered on this planet are the elites selected by the council from various earths. It is no exaggeration to say that they are all the favored children of heaven, and they are all dragons and phoenixes.
I hope they can participate in a more correct cause, instead of killing their lives in a daze.
As for whether it is loyal to the idea of the council, it is not particularly important. This is already the fifth shock. It is conservatively estimated that after two rounds of shocks at most, the era will usher in a change.
Their loyalty and their ideas won't change the big picture.
I just need them to really do something useful, and if our operation goes smoothly, those garden worlds will also need resources and unified scheduling for preparing for fusion. "
Mason exhaled the smoke ring and explained:
"Rather than rebuilding a system that is time-consuming and laborious, it is better to borrow the current one, what do you think?"
"I'm noncommittal."
Old Luthor also said frankly:
"The rebel army only has so many people. I hope that the people in the city can survive or not. It is not up to me. After the army of the sixth sequence is overwhelmed, it will be decided by Ronan the accuser and the interest groups around him.
Personally, I don't want to see blood flow.
We are rebels, but we are not massacres, let alone lunatics who just want to watch the world burn.
And rather than discussing how to deal with the captives, I doubt whether you can drag the entire garrison of Hope City by yourself? Even if there were twelve sequences of conquerors who defected, that would still be quite a terrifying number. "
"Hey, bald old man, what are you talking about!"
Before Mason said anything, the cuties beside him were not satisfied.
Harry put her hands on her hips and said unhappily:
"What you are sitting in front of you is the twister of the dark age, the sage of hope, the honorable leader of all rebels, the destroyer of the emperor of the universe, the absolute enemy of the invincible star devourer, who has wiped out at least five conquerors by himself. Sequence Liberation Lord Robin, the most handsome and handsome superhero in many worlds.
I don't doubt anything that little sweetheart can do, and you shouldn't doubt it! "
"You missed a lot of titles! And the order is wrong."
Quinn dismantled the stage and added:
"Mr. K is also the Messiah of the Mutants, the Doomsday Beast of Hogwarts, the Storm Ripper of the Endless Sea Frontier, the Devil Slayer, and the Lord of the Twilight of the Gathering of Stars, etc.
In short, it is very powerful!
Super awesome! "
The two cuties praised Mason as rare in the sky and rare in the earth.
The rainbow fart Mason himself was embarrassed, he waved his hand to signal the cuties to calm down, coughed again and said to old Luthor:
"Don't listen to them, I haven't heard of many of these nicknames and titles myself, but I think you really shouldn't have this suspicion.
If the directors with real power are all there, I may have to weigh it, but the current situation is that I heard that many directors with real power have disappeared. Essentially falling apart.
I hope that the council looks like a colossus, but in fact it is just a power organization built around the small circle at the top, and when its core is lost, it can only maintain a shell that looks huge but actually collapses. It's like a dilapidated house that looks gorgeous on the outside but has collapsed on the inside.
As long as we go up and kick it, it will collapse.
Although in the current situation, the symbolic meaning of kicking up is greater than the actual meaning, but someone has to do it.
I have the confidence to win opportunities for you, it depends on whether you are willing to bet everything against me.
I put my words first. "
"Whether you join or not, I will implement my plan tomorrow. The only difference is that without your cooperation, I guess I will have to rack my brains to write a touching essay to persuade you to surrender when I go back tonight."
"With less than 24 hours, I'm a bit reluctant to contact the sixth sequence, let alone organize a large-scale assault landing."
Old Luther rubbed his chin and expressed his doubts, but Mason didn't care about these at all, he waved his hands and said:
"That's what Ronan has to consider, not your trouble. You have to keep up with the changes in the situation, Luther. Now that you have my assistance, Ronan, who has evil intentions and wants to win the fruits of victory, is no longer necessary to resist victory." .
Actually, even without him, I can create an army not inferior to the sixth sequence to support you. I mean, from now on, you have to realize that you have become the dominant players in this cooperation!
There is no need to look at Ronan's wink anymore.
As for what he thinks about this and what actions he will take, I don't care at all. I have to calculate the probability of winning or losing when facing Doom.
But if the opponent is Ronan and his sixth sequence, then I can tell you that we are sure to win.
The trend has come!
The wheel of history rolls forward, he either joins it, or hides far away, and if he wants to drive back, the only way is to be crushed to death. "
"Um."
Luther nodded, indicating that he would think about it, and then he raised another question, saying:
"You said you came here to destroy the end star of the council? Do you know where that thing is?"
"That's exactly what I want to ask you."
Mason narrowed his eyes and said:
"I'm sure it was cast in this world, but the people I sent searched the entire world and even the entire Internet, but there was no clue.
They hid it.
There is also God Doom!
That guy has been hiding in the shadow of the council. He has carefully erased all traces of his actions, making it difficult for me to trace. Can you give me some useful news? "
"I only know that Dum and his forces are hiding in the fighting world."
Old Luther did not hide anything.
He said directly:
"As for how to enter the demiplane attached to the material world, I have no idea, as you said, there is very little information on this.
As for the ‘Star of the End’, I do have some news, but maybe you think so much, I can only tell you that even at the top of the council, there are very few people who have seen that thing with their own eyes.
Although it is indeed a project that many people know about, it is like a veil that makes people feel invisible. "
"Yes, at first I thought it was just a plan to survive the doomsday, like a doomsday ark, and its significance should be similar to the integration promoted by the new utopia project.
But the more I got to know the plan, the more I realized something wasn't quite right. "
Mason rubbed his forehead and said:
“Its existence has been kept secret to such an extent that it is far beyond what a salvation plan should be. I have to wonder whether there are other deeper meanings behind this project promoted by the council.
And Dum's reaction is also very strange.
It is reasonable to say that if he is only to survive the end, then after the death of old A, there is no need for him to continue to stubbornly promote the progress of the end star.
He has seen the success of the fusion project with his own eyes, and he only needs to hide in a corner and wait peacefully to follow our actions into an era.
But looking at him now, he will never give up until he completes the entire project. He is a really smart person, and his obstinate devotion seems to show that Star of the End has something to do with it.
Maybe
Surviving the apocalypse is only a part of that plan, not even the main function. "
Old Luther didn't speak for a long while.
He stared at Mason with a strange look, until nearly half a minute later, he put down the wine glass in his hand, and asked seriously:
"Are you guessing these based on the existing situation?"
"It's not just speculation, I also have some evidence to support it."
Mason took out the incomplete Rorschach's diary from his luggage, put it on the table and said to Old Luthor:
"This is what the old A left me.
I admit that guy is an absolute bastard, the kind of hopeless person who can't atone for his sins by killing a hundred times, but there should be something else about him deliberately leaving this thing to me before he died.
Of course, it is also possible to use me to get rid of some guys he doesn't like, but I think the former is more likely.
The Star of the End Project has secrets.
is a secret that even old A has to treat carefully. "
"this thing"
Old Luthor stared at Rorschach's diary in front of him. After reading a few pages, he hesitated for a moment, stood up and leaned on his cane and said to Mason:
"I have one too, come with me, since we have decided to cooperate, I have to show you something."
"Huh? You have too?"
Mason was stunned when he heard Luther's words.
He got up and followed the bald old man to a secret door leading to the lower part of the office, and asked:
"Where did your share come from? So is this thing a collection task? Or is it an important customs clearance item or something like that?"
"That was just an accident."
Luthor explained:
"When I first came to this world, the local resistance army was mowed down by the Arbitration Tribunal, and I took over the organization when the population withered. I found it from the relics of the previous leader.
Because I don’t have the first half of the book in your hands, it’s difficult for me to understand some of the content in that diary, but it does record some discoveries made by the ‘Rorschach’ project to track down the ‘Star of the End’. These things are important to you Should be useful. "
"Who was the previous leader of the rebels?"
Mason pressed a question, but Luther said without looking back:
"A woman named 'Silk Soul' died at the hands of the pursuers of the arbitration tribunal two months before I came. According to some old resistance elements, 'Silk Soul' is just a code name. She is a certain The last member of a long-lost order of Rebel heroes.
It is said that he vowed to resist because his boyfriend died at the hands of the council more than ten years ago. "
"Night Owl."
Mason sighed and said the name. He touched the Rorschach diary in his hand and said softly:
"A good old man who was evaluated by Rorschach as weak. It seems that Ye Xiao, who chose not to care about good and evil, was finally involved in this **** by Rorschach who insisted on going his own way."
"When the building is about to collapse, how can a member of the crowd escape the catastrophe when the darkness falls? A grain of sand falling on ordinary people in the doomsday era is as heavy as a mountain that cannot be moved."
Old Luthor limped open an encrypted mechanical door, he coughed and said:
"Even a superhero is just the stronger one among all the ants, well, you will see some 'weird' things next, I hope you will not be surprised so as not to scare it.
It's a little timid.
And once intimidated things can become very troublesome. "
"Ha, we're well-informed! How can we be intimidated?"
Harry followed nonchalantly, and Mason followed closely behind. A few seconds later, the three of them looked at each other, staring blankly at the "thing" in front of them that was picked up by the old Luther.
Rao is the captain of the team who is well-informed, and at this moment, he couldn't help but ask:
"The one in your arms. What is that thing!!"
