The Track of Dawn In the World of Marvel Chapter 311

Chapter 311 10. The non-staff member of Team K "Hunter" Ciri reports to you, Your Excellency Captain

Mason's office is a troubled place.

Since the Kiteman specially reserved this place for him to show Mason's extraordinary identity, this place has encountered strange encounters including but not limited to being bombed, experiencing Batman invasion, superhero melee, and being placed with alien gods and evil objects .

Tonight, the unlucky office experienced another energy shock, and the scattered space-time energy almost destroyed all the furniture here.

And the explosion that sounded immediately alarmed the security personnel of the bar.

When more than a dozen 2077 bionics dressed in the Terrorist Mobile Squad kicked open the office door led by Judy and Barbara, what they saw was the embarrassed Mason sitting cross-legged on the ground, with a silver-haired woman in his arms. look.

This scene made Judy and Barbara look at each other.

Didn't Mason just finish the kiss-and-stick ceremony with Halle? Who is this silver-haired woman with a beautiful figure from behind?

Hello Mason!

Appearance of pure love is actually playing the game of two boats, right?

Harry should have let the dog kill you!

"I know what you're thinking, but it's not the case of your random associations. This is my colleague who can't explain anything now, go out.

Don't interrupt the rest of the conversation. "

Looking at the wonderful expressions on the faces of Judy and Barbara, Mason knew that the two sisters had already started to play the "little theater of catching rape" in their minds. Ciri, who was panting, helped her up.

The reckless Mr. Hunter is really in bad luck this time.

She was subjected to [Punishment of Wisdom], which almost made her brain mess up. Fortunately, she is not a strategic character, so it is just a sequela of brain pain and body numbness.

If the old Black Frank was hit head-on just now, based on the activity level of his brain full of tricks and dark secrets, he would probably become an idiot on the spot.

This made Mason have to sigh, the thing the warlock gave is really TM evil.

"I've seen that thing."

Siri, who was supported and sat on the half-torn sofa, rubbed her hair and made a moaning sound, while pointing to the starry sky disc that fell to the ground and said:

"That is a strange object that the warlock found when he was exploring a dark sea of stars a few years ago. Why is it in your hands? Mason! Tell me honestly, have you defected to the warlock?"

"It sounds complicated."

Mason picked up the disc, feeling a little distressed at the cracks on it.

This thing is powerful, but its fragile body is its biggest weakness. It can make cracks if it is hit on the ground, and it will definitely be smashed if it is punched hard.

This is the result of Mason adding the [Sturdy] feature to it.

While grabbing the wreckage of the twisted metal display stand at hand, he activated the magic fire to shape it into a stronger airtight protection platform, and then put the disk back in.

"I originally wanted to ask you to take me around the secret treasure vault in Starsburg, and help me choose a treasure that can be hidden, but you are on a 'business trip', so I can only find it myself.

It was really an accident that I met a warlock halfway through. I don't know what kind of mentality he gave me this.

Don't say that this thing is powerful, even you are so embarrassed, it seems that I don't have to worry about being raided by Dr. Fate in this demiplane. "

Knowing that his boss loves to drink coffee, Mason took out a handful of coffee beans from his luggage and made a coffee machine with the materials on site to make drinks.

While busy, he jokingly said:

"What? Are you finally done with your business trip?"

"Can't you just leave it alone? You bastard, and I'm actually on a business trip, just to mediate a private fight between two B-class squads on the front lines of a world at war.

They each recruited hundreds of servants to prepare for the film, the reason is simply to fight for the control of an ancient civilization relic.

There are too many such broken things.

Compared with them, you are a good employee who obeys the rules. "

Ciri will have a terrible headache, and really don't have the energy to argue with Mason anymore.

She leaned on the sofa and wiped the blood from her nostrils. Although she looked embarrassed, with the strength and vitality of the great teacher, she would not even be considered a minor injury.

just a headache

"Why are you angry?"

Mason quickly made a steaming cup of coffee and sent it to Shirley. He asked:

"Didn't it be fine before?"

"Who was that woman next to you during the previous communication?"

Hunter asked:

"Did you know that having a third person while we're talking would give me away? You really have no respect for me, Mason."

"That's Harry."

Mason felt that Ciri's anger was definitely not just because of his identity being exposed, but he still explained:

"It's my new team member and girlfriend."

"Um?"

Ciri, who just took a sip of coffee, narrowed her eyes for an instant, making Mason feel chilly, but the next moment, Miss Hunter said in a strange tone:

"Harley Quinn, the famous Zhou Keer's assistant, an evil crazy beauty, she is also among the best known psychopaths in the entire parallel world system.

So you like this genre?

Tsk tsk, Mason, your taste is a bit weird, I began to wonder if your spirit is not normal. "

"Harry's mental state is indeed unstable, but I think having me by her side can ease her condition, but I don't think you came all the way here to talk to me about Harry's problems, right?"

Mason erected the chair that was crippled by the blast, and sat on it himself. While taking out the medical kit to help Ciri clean and bandage the bleeding arm, he said:

"Are you worried that my meeting with old A will expose your current movements? Don't worry, I just talked to him, and the conversation was very in-depth, and he showed me his attitude.

He wanted to prove to me that they weren't a bunch of worms just sitting back and letting bad things happen, and revealed to me that he did have a big plan. "

"They've always had it, and it's pretty clear."

Seeing Mason talking about serious business, Ciri also became serious, and she said to Mason:

"This is the reason why I have been unable to make up my mind to break away from them. I admit that I am easily influenced by such ambitious goals, but after thinking about it for a while, I found that I was not really attracted by the old A. Describe the ideal of bewitching.

He should have talked to you about the establishment of the Council of Hope.

In the early days of Stellaris, we did some really good things, and he proved that his idea could work.

Especially the aid to another Class A world before the first shock, that was the first big diversion we did, and I was a part of it with my parents.

That scene is still fresh in my memory.

Oh, by the way, that transfer took place in the swordsman's home world.

and"

Ciri lowered her head, sighed and said:

"My parents trusted him until that happened. Although his age is not comparable to that of a witcher, I did regard him as an elder for a while."

"Old A has a feasible plan and grand goals have nothing to do with whether he is a good person or not."

Mason said as he tied the bandages into a lovely bow:

“I still don't trust him for the same reason as before. He can sacrifice many people for his own goals, including us naturally.

He doesn't even hide his utilitarianism, admitting that he met me because the K-team found something valuable.

Also, I signed this with him. "

He handed the note written by old A when he left to Shirley. The latter took a look in his hand and frowned. She said:

"Find a real way to fight against the destruction of the world before the fourth impact, if you can't do it, obey his command honestly and implement his plan.

You're taking too much risk, Mason.

So many smart people in the fox's nest can't find a solution, why do you think you can solve this headache for everyone in a year at most? "

"First, a correction, I don't need to address the shock."

Mason shook his finger and said:

"I just need to find a way to preserve the two worlds at the same time when the impact occurs. The difficulty is not as terrible as you think. Secondly, you think that with the old A's style, you will honestly abide by this contract that has no mandatory effect at all. ?

No!

He will not.

So neither will I. "

"Are you trying to stabilize him?"

Hiri reacted immediately, she said:

"So that he won't find trouble for you in secret?"

"Roughly the same."

Mason rubbed his forehead and said:

"He has thousands of times more resources than us. If he insists on 'beating' me, even if he just has an idea, it will be enough to make me accomplish nothing in the future.

Setting up this small contract, which is like a game to him, can indeed buy us a little bit of freedom and time.

At the same time, that quote from Steve Rogers also reminded me.

If I want to convince you, and other people, to join me in this, I can't just tell you that Quint is bad, I have to show you convincing evidence.

I mean I got some before, but that might not be enough to convince you to stick with me. "

"It's not that I don't have confidence in you."

Ciri took a sip of coffee.

She glanced at the messy office, and after hesitating for a moment, she decided to tell Mason something really important.

"follow me."

Hiri propped up her body, put on the starry sky mask and robe again, and motioned for Mason to follow her to leave the demiplane area of the Starry Sky Eye, and then waved open a silver arc leading to an unknown place.

She walked in, followed by Mason.

The two of them entered an unfamiliar area in the next moment, and this place didn't seem like a complete world, because it was surrounded by the boundless reflection of the starry sky.

Those starlights shone around, reflecting the strange land suspended in the invisible place under their feet.

It's like a dilapidated strange temple, its main body has been fragmented and scattered around, and it is suspended here under the support of some kind of force.

Mason stopped on the spot, looking at the sea of stars around him, Shirley looked back at him after a few seconds, and said suspiciously:

"Let's go! What are you doing here?"

"This starry sky. I have seen it!"

Mason stopped at the entrance, he looked at the stars above his head, and stroked the devil tattoo on his left hand.

He said to Ciri:

"After I joined the Stellaris, when I asked for power through tattoos, I came to this area in a trance! Yes, I remember correctly, it is here.

The endless empty sea of stars seems to breed endless darkness. "

"Every member of the Constellation Society who has grabbed the 'power' from Lord Fate has seen the sea of stars here, which is not surprising."

Ciri sighed and said:

“That process is a symbolic manifestation of your deep contract with it, which means that you also become a 'candle' to help it burn, but I brought you here not just for the stars.

Follow me, be careful, don't go wrong. "

The hunter leads the way, and Mason follows behind. There seems to be nothing here, but in fact, Mason can feel that some rather strange "things" exist in the invisible.

As long as he takes a wrong step, those things will be peeped and captured.

"It's just ahead."

After walking for more than ten minutes, the two reached the depths of this special area whose existence form could not be outlined by conventional spatial perception.

There is a dark cave in front of you, which seems to swallow all light.

"Follow me!"

Ciri took a deep breath, cast a magic spell on Mason to make him disappear, and then reached out to hold Mason's hand. When her ten fingers touched, the coldness of Ciri's fingers made Mason raise his eyebrows.

She is afraid.

This discovery gave young people a hunch that what they were about to see next was anything but ordinary.

Led by Ciri, Mason stepped into the dark place in front of her with her. Once entering the black curtain cave, all perceptions were instantly blocked.

He cannot see, hear, or smell.

Even his own thinking seemed to be gradually frozen, only the clasped fingers in his hands led him forward like a guidepost.

Time seemed to be distorted. He didn't know how long it had passed before he finally walked through the cave and stood on the edge of a cliff. In front of him, Ciri was already out of breath.

She shielded Mason from a place where he shouldn't be at all, which means that all the pressure on Mason has been borne by her.

"see it?"

She pointed to the large space below and asked Mason.

The young man stood beside Ciri and looked down but couldn't see anything, only a mist blocked his sight, and as Ciri waved his hand, the moment the mist dissipated, a piece of "starlight" appeared before Mason's eyes.

Dots of flames danced, illuminating the entire area in front of the eyes, and if you look carefully, there are delicate stone pillars all over the entire empty land, and there are light spots burning on each stone pillar.

Candle!

This is the candle.

Mason understood instantly.

The place where Shirley brought him was the place where His Excellency Destiny stored the candle of his own power, and the burning fire full of pits and valleys fluttered silently in front of him, like starlight shining in the darkness.

But it makes the hair stand on end.

His fingers were clenched, this action was noticed by Ciri, Mr. Hunter pointed to the high place, and said softly:

"Look, there's your candle."

Mason looked up, and in the candlelight of the weird stone platform suspended high above, he clearly felt his own fire floating there.

It is inconspicuous among tens of thousands of candles.

"how about yours?"

He looked away and asked a question, but Ciri didn't answer.

But the mood of the two of them is definitely connected at this moment. They are looking at the candlelight all over the mountains and plains in front of them, and a sense of powerlessness rises in their hearts.

"Every fire here can regenerate it once, and our burning will give it strength."

Ciri said softly:

"Every B-level member will be brought into this place when they decide to participate in level promotion. They know the truth here, and some people have resisted.

Their candles were all extinguished.

Mason, you once asked me what I wanted to do. "

She raised her hand and pointed to the tens of thousands of sparks floating in front of her eyes.

she says:

"I took some time to regroup my thoughts, I confirmed that I wanted to destroy this place, I confirmed that I wanted to see the collapse of the Constellation, and I confirmed that I wanted the spirit of my parents to rest in peace.

More than once I have wanted to pounce on those candles.

But I can't.

Being a great teacher has a price, and my existence is that price.

I am almost integrated with it. It sleeps all year round because it carries too much divinity, and the three masters are its lair guards. If you want to hurt it, you have to kill us first.

I have not made up my mind to do these things with you not only because I question you, but also because I am not ready to die bravely.

The truth is, I'm not as brave as I think. "

"Is that so?"

Mason understood, he pursed his lips and said:

"It turns out that I have been forcing you to die, so every time I ask you must have put a lot of pressure on you, right?"

"I'm not afraid of death, Mason."

Hiri stared at the burning candles in front of her eyes, she answered the non-essential question and said:

"I'm just afraid that my sacrifice is meaningless, so I want to remind you that if you really want to destroy the Constellation, please be fully prepared.

When that day really comes, I will be cold-blooded enough to kill my companions and give you my heart.

But you only have one chance.

You have to win!

I brought you here today because I finally figured out that matter, about your question, about my answer, maybe me and old A are really not the same way.

I don't have the intelligence to peek into the hope of ending the shock, nor do I have the patience to wait until the stars will get back on track.

Like Barbara said, the days go by and I lose my nerve

I have delayed this revenge for too long. "

After finishing speaking, Ciri put her hand on Mason's shoulder, she showed a weak smile, and said firmly:

"You wanted me to be your sidekick, you wanted me to be a sidekick to Team K, and you got what you wanted, Mason, between them and you, I've come to trust you.

But we must come up with a surefire way!

I know it's hard"

“This goes beyond the definition of difficult.”

Mason stared at the sea of burning candles in front of him, each dancing candle represents a life, he took a deep breath, and squeezed Ciri's hand tightly.

He said:

"But I will do it! Your trust is too heavy for me to live up to."
