Trajectory of Dawn in the World of American Comics

In Mr. Hunter's office, when she called Mason "Reserve Old K", Mason knew that the big leader was a showdown.

So he didn't care anymore, and asked:

"So, is this some kind of test? Like an initiation ceremony for the Brotherhood of Evil? I have to do certain things to show my abilities and earn the respect of others or something."

"If you're going to talk yourself into having blood on your hands, that's a really good reason."

Mr. Hunter nodded and said:

"The two pioneering teams under my command, 'Afterlife' and 'Ex', belong to the top teams in the Stars Club. You just met Anna.

I think you got a good idea of ​​what she was when you tried her out.

The captain of the afterlife has the same philosophy.

I see your potential, so I recognize your possibility in the future, but their outlook on life formed after experiencing crisis seems to be simpler.

If you want to win their goodwill and approval, you have to show your ability.

If you want to be 'one of your own', you have to use actions to prove that you are reliable.

After all, the world is too complicated. We don't have so much time to observe what is in a person's mind, we can only watch how he acts.

do you understand me?

True unity can be founded only with blood!

Either the enemy's or your own. "

"Understood, I will organize the action after I go back."

Mason no longer dwells on the question.

But now that the card has been revealed, he is no longer polite, and re-spoken about what he needs most at the moment.

"About my material request.

One world gate is really not enough, and just before we arrived at Starfort, the magic circle on my side has already started to monitor the time-space disturbance of the whole world.

You know the background of that super dangerous A-level world, I feel that I really need the care from the organization urgently.

"But in principle, a team can only have one world gate. This is the rule."

Mr. Hunter was processing the documents, without raising his head, he said:

"Even I myself have to abide by this rule. My team can only use one door when they go out on missions. I can't help you with this.

As for the risk of you being discovered in the base world, this is a compulsory course for every member of the Stellaris.

Most worlds are not friendly to outsiders, regardless of the power system.

If you can't even solve the problem of hiding yourself, then in the words of my fellow swordsman Your Excellency, you deserve to die and leave the gate of your world to those who are more capable and more in need. "

Such a direct refusal did not make Mason angry or disappointed, because he had already keenly grasped the loophole in Mr. Hunter's words.

Mason rolled his eyes and said:

"Not allowed in principle means that there are always special circumstances, and the moment the rules are formulated, doesn't it mean that loopholes will also appear together?

Dear Mr. Hunter, you see, I'm not asking you to open me a back door or anything.

I just need your advice.

I just need a little life experience from the elders to tell me that this reckless young rookie must not make those mistakes at work, lest I make mistakes and cause you trouble again.

Really just a question at work.

Please don't get me wrong.

If you are inconvenient or busy, I can go to that cold Miss Anna or Miss Judy, just with your permission.

Isn't it part of the work of mature old employees to lead newcomers? "

"Very well, you have learned to correctly view the coordination of rules and loopholes, which is a very appreciated advantage for newcomers.

As the immediate superior of Team K, I should indeed remind you of some 'taboos' at work. "

Mr. Hunter stopped working, nodded his head approvingly, leaned back on his chair and picked up his coffee cup after thinking for a while, just like an old cadre holding a teacup.

Coughed a few times, took a sip of water, and said in a drawn out voice:

"First of all, although each world gate will have a number and power projection record when it is distributed, but what we do is to travel through the world. There will always be some accidents that cause the world gate to be lost and cannot be recovered.

More than half of the bounty tasks in the Star Society are about recovering the world gate left in a dangerous world.

Therefore, you must be strict with your team members on weekdays!

If you accidentally 'pick up' a World Gate left by a team that has been wiped out or is on the verge of being wiped out, don't just put it in your pocket, and hand it in in time to avoid loss of organization property.

Don't try to dismantle the handle of the gate of the world and soak it in a high concentration of holy purification liquid, that will cause problems with the positioning of the gate of the world.

All the coordinates recorded on it will be invalid, and it will also make the Fortress of Stars temporarily lose track of it.

Organizations can lose important assets as a result.

remember!

This terrible thing must not be done! The consequences of being discovered can be quite serious. "

"I will write it down in my notebook, and when I go back, I must repeat the importance of this matter to my players."

Mason took out a notebook and recorded all the teachings of his superiors.

As he wrote, he said:

"This article is called 'organizational property is sacred and inviolable'. Is there any similar terrible taboo that I need to pay attention to, my lord."

"Of course, as a well-organized system, we have to pay attention to some small details in our work."

Mr. Hunter stroked his left arm covered by the robe, and said:

"For example, under any circumstances, you should avoid entering areas where energy is disordered or magic power is out of control. That will not only put you in danger, but also prevent the monitoring center of Fort Stars from capturing the specific location of your team.

This means that it is difficult for the headquarters to monitor the private conversations between you through the soul imprint, so that if you are in danger, it is also difficult for the headquarters to send search and rescuers. "

"That sounds terrible! It's a life-threatening detail, and I'll definitely be careful to avoid those places."

Mason quickly recorded this as well, and looked at Mr. Hunter expectantly.

The latter thought for a while and said:

"Avoid entering base worlds that are already vassalized by a squad, where there are usually members of our 'fraternal agency' performing certain important missions.

You have to understand.

The Stars Club is nothing more than a sequence of explorers under the jurisdiction of a larger organization. Unlike our organization's "humanized management method", most of our brother organizations are under military control.

Once you stray into their workplace, you can easily be executed on the spot.

If you have to go, you must notify the team in the vassal world in advance to let them issue a temporary certificate. This is also very important. For example, you are going to help organize the task of eradicating traitors next.

I'll give you a secret execution order.

Because the A-level world where Sandstorm is located has been vassalized very early and has been in-depth development, don't run around there, if you encounter vanguard clearers or more dangerous conquerors, it will be very troublesome. "

Hearing this immediately moved Mason's heart.

Mr. Hunter's words confirmed his thoughts. The "Cleaner Legion" is indeed the same as the Stars Club, and it is a different organization under the same organization.

He stepped forward and put the clearer commander enhancer he found earlier on Mr. Hunter's desk, and the latter sat up straight when he saw it.

She snapped her fingers to activate some power in the room.

"This is a booster that vanguard commanders will use. It is said that each one is specially distributed by the logistics department of the clearer. It is almost impossible to get the real thing.

Where did you find it? "

She picked up the small injection bottle with only a little liquid left, and asked a serious question.

Mason said all about his follow-up exploration in Hogwarts without reservation. After listening, Mr. Hunter was silent for a few seconds, and said to Mason:

"It's really hard to judge whether your luck is good or bad. It's fine, take it back, you can study it or use it for yourself, but once you are discovered, you must separate it!

The Scavengers are so named because they are specially engineered to be ruthless killing machines.

The existence of these guys is to destroy all rebels.

The most troublesome thing is that they are real battle sequences compared to us explorers. It's like the difference between a smart and cunning hound and a mad dog pouncing on its prey.

Avoid contact with them under any circumstances, let alone conflicts. "

"Then under what circumstances will they be dispatched?"

Mason questioned.

This time Mr. Hunter hesitated for a longer time, as if he was considering whether to tell Mason these obviously deeper secrets.

In the end, she chose to speak truthfully:

"The first case.

When a world overly resists the pioneering behavior of the Constellation Society or relies on itself to survive the "pollution" and plan a counterattack, the Constellation Society has the right to apply to the higher-level organization to dispatch cleanups.

The second case.

When the hounds of the Constellation Society confirm that there are items of special concern in the target world, such as dangerous divine power, they can also apply for the intervention of the Vanguard Cleaner. "

"Pollution? You mean the zombie virus actively spread by those scum among us? You call them 'hound dogs', well, a good name.

Calling the Hounds of Doom is not a good thing to hear. "

Mason raised his eyebrows and said:

"But the Hogwarts world doesn't fit either. They haven't survived the zombie virus, and there are no gods in that world."

"So the Cleaners weren't actually deployed in that world, Mason. Also, what the wizarding world experienced wasn't really 'pollution'.

The walking dead you see are just a 'downgraded version' of highly poisonous pollution, and what Old K spreads in the pirate world is also the same kind of 'non-lethal' stuff.

The ones found in your world are the real weapons for 'pollution warfare'. "

Mr. Hunter handed the small bottle in his hand to the young man, and she explained:

"The nature of the clearers is an army! Once they appear, at least a small battle group with thousands of people is equipped with conventional force and landing ships that are enough to flatten a world, not a small team of three or four people.

But the world that was attacked by those mad dogs cannot be complete, and judging from the corpse you found, it should be an undisclosed 'private operation'. "

She explained:

"That's the rare third case.

For example, the private orders of some big figures in the higher-level organization often trigger such actions, just like the pioneering team of the League of Stars, dispatching elite cleaners to infiltrate in a low-key manner to achieve their goals and then evacuate. "

Mr. Hunter thought for a moment, then snapped his fingers and said:

"I probably guessed what they were looking for there. Remember the fragment of the Philosopher's Stone you gave me? It is said that it can be made into some kind of life-prolonging medicine.

Presumably some dying old fellow in the Higher Facility was too terrified of death to have contributed to the rapid destruction of a world.

But only a few people can cause that level of destruction, I guess there is at least one 'conqueror', that is, the kind of super monsters that can single-handedly destroy civilization like Kryptonian Superman and Wonder Woman in your world .

But they failed.

That's why old K accepted the bounty task and entered the ruins of Hogwarts. "

Mr. Hunter's words silenced Mason, and he whispered after a few seconds:

"I'm sorry about old K. Looking at it now, he doesn't seem to be a bad guy through and through."

"If you've joined the Stars Club, stop judging a person by such a simple and almost childish standard as 'good or bad', Mason."

Mr. Hunter waved his hands and said in a relieved tone:

"We're all complicated.

As for old K

I don't blame you for killing him.

Your actions can even be regarded as bringing him some kind of relief, so that he will not be able to survive day after day in the nightmare of surviving. He should have given you something else? "

"Um."

Mason took the cat school inheritance badge from his neck and handed it to Mr. Hunter, who took it in his hand and looked at it with complicated eyes.

After ten seconds of silence, she spoke:

"Are you interested in accepting the Grass Trial? Mason, maybe becoming a demon hunter will give you more power to protect yourself. Since you got it, maybe it's a revelation from fate.

I can help you through this trial.

Herbal potion has been improved so that there will no longer be a terrible loss rate, and of course pain is still inevitable. "

"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it."

Mason shook his head and said:

"I heard about this trial from old K, and I don't think my ability is enough to pass it, and I think it's good to be an ordinary person.

Speaking of which, I saw in old K’s notes that the scenery of Toussaint, the fairy tale country in his hometown, was almost exactly the same as the scenery around Starsburg.

So, is this the hometown of old K? "

"Roughly the same."

Mr. Hunter said ambiguously:

"This is the last trace of a destroyed world, like a 'specimen' taken from a corpse, or a collection used by hunters to show off their exploits.

So, I think he doesn't think this is his hometown.

Unless necessary, he rarely stays at Starsburg for a long time.

That is a painful and exhausted soul. He is free now, but the responsibilities he left behind must be shouldered by you and move on. Mason, when you come back, your code name will be 'Old K'. "

As he spoke, Mr. Hunter pinched lightly with his leather-gloved fingers.

An old Gwent card appeared in her hand, which was her symbol, with a black Q symbol in the corner of the legendary witcher Geralt's card.

she says:

"In our small group, you directly connect with me. After your team is strong enough, you will continue to finish when Old K can't finish.

Find someone who can help us in the world where he fell into the sand. "

"I'm curious, what exactly is our organization going to do?"

Mason asked:

"To Overthrow"

"swish"

His mouth was covered.

Mr. Hunter, who was still in front of him just now, appeared behind him like a flash, and covered Mason's mouth with his hands to prevent him from saying the next thing.

She was almost lying on Mason's shoulder, and warned coldly in his ear:

"Some things can't be said, or even thought. It's staring at you, it's staring at us and it never lets up! You guessed it, we all loathe this place that uses the name of the end to do evil.

While the reasons may be different, the goals are the same. "

Such a close contact made Mason move his body a little uncomfortable, but the uncomfortable feeling disappeared a lot when he thought that Mr. Hunter was actually a woman disguised as a man.

He nodded.

Mr. Hunter let go of his hand and said:

"It's time for you to go now, Mason Cooper. Carry on with your doubts, and one day you'll see the answers. If you live long enough.

Try to live until then.

This thing is for you. "

She picked up an exquisite hourglass from a corner of her desk and handed it to Mason. The hourglass was very peculiar, and the gravel in it would slide down without the influence of gravity.

Even if Mason turns it upside down, it will hang backwards.

"This is the countdown."

Mr Hunter said:

"The moment it ends is when the 'third shock' comes. I will send someone to notify you of the specific situation. The sooner the sandstorm thing ends, the better, and then stay quietly in your world and don't mess around run.

As long as the super A grade world is not too bad luck, there will always be power to protect itself.

But then you have to be mentally prepared. After the shock event is over, actions against your world may be on the agenda.

If you want to protect it from the horde of stars

Then get stronger as soon as possible.

Whatever your heart thinks, but the protection claimed by the weak means nothing. I have witnessed such tragedies firsthand, don't let it happen again. "
