Trajectory of Dawn in the World of American Comics

Chapter 648 15. There is an inner ghost! Terminate transaction!

"I don't believe every word in this sentence, including that punctuation mark."

In the hunter's office, Mason took back his cell phone and said to the serious-looking Ciri:

"I now suspect that this is a bait, or a trap, I think old A is ready to do something to me, which is also in line with his character.

I've been waiting for him to contact me since the fusion was successful, but until now, it's self-evident what he's been up to during this time.

What do you think? "

"How else can I feel?"

Ciri moved her fingers and said:

"The situation is what it is. It is impossible to expect that bastard to surrender and admit defeat honestly. He also knows this, and he also knows that you will not be deceived by such a trick, so he doesn't even bother to pretend.

My advice is to delete this newsletter immediately and pretend you didn't see anything.

We did our thing step by step, while preparing for a larger-scale world fusion for the next impact, while mobilizing our forces to prepare for the final attack on Mephisto.

As long as the old devil is taken down, all problems will no longer be problems.

Unless old A desperately mobilizes all the power of the council to fight us to the death, their unity will be weakened by one point every day that passes, and we will be strengthened by one point.

time!

Time is on our side, Mason. "

"That's what I said, but I thought about it on the way here, and the situation in front of me is still a little bit wrong."

The captain sat on the chair, and Harry patted his back obediently behind him. By the way, he pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation between Mason and Ciri, although she was not interested in these.

Tch, if that dead ghost old A dares to come, he will be killed! The universe emperor has been beaten away by us, what kind of monsters do I hope the council can do?

Mason was not as optimistic as Harry.

He rubbed his forehead and said:

"It stands to reason that after the fusion of the planes is completed, when the news spreads, there should be many onlookers contacting us either explicitly or secretly, and no matter what our answer is, they will always show eagerness and anticipation.

This is a matter of attitude.

But it has been three days since the shock ended, has a force or representative appeared?

This in itself already explains a lot of problems.

Either they think that our victory is not worth mentioning, and they still cannot shake the huge advantage of the council. Of course, this is basically impossible. Anyone with eyes knows what successful fusion means.

So there is only the second possibility left.

They know that something important to us and them is moving forward, and they don't plan to switch sides until it's over.

I guess the "star of the end" should have been cast, it may not be perfect or there may be some traces of rush work, but it must have appeared.

The council also came up with its own era change plan, which brought those forces that should have made a choice back to a wait-and-see state. After all, they have already invested a lot. It is normal for them to choose to hesitate in the face of such inundation costs. . "

"The solution to the doomsday does not have more than one correct answer."

Ciri stroked her silver hair, and she said:

"Perhaps they're looking for both to go hand in hand to increase the odds of getting through the moment of change?"

"Maybe, but that planet shouldn't exist!"

Mason narrowed his eyes and said:

"It is a death star built with the essence selected from the corpses of countless planets, and its existence itself is a blasphemy to the dead.

If I could, I'd really like to smash that damn thing with my own hands.

But Old A's actions may also be part of the council's plan. Just as I hate their plan, they are also resisting our plan.

They are unwilling to give up the power in their hands and expect their country to be stable until the opening of the next era, creating a more glorious foundation for them to rule.

Old A has already declared the gauntlet, and their internal integration has been completed, at least initially.

All kinds of people who have enough reasons to be hostile to us and who are unwilling to accept the consequences of failure and relinquish their power have joined together.

They want to see a defeat befall us, and Old A is their chosen standard bearer. "

The captain played with the mobile phone in his hand. Under the gaze of Harry and Ciri, he thought for a moment and sent a reply to old A:

"I was busy just now, so I didn't see it. You want to talk? Okay, time and place?"

"Mason!"

Ciri rushed over and grabbed the captain's wrist, saying:

"Don't play with fire, you know it's a trap and you still jump into it?"

"It's a trap for me, and if I don't respond, it becomes someone else's."

Mason patted Ciri's hand and replied:

"With Old A's character, he won't stop until he achieves his goal.

If I don't fall for it, he will start with the people around me. My two cuties, my family, my friends, my teammates, mutants who just re-formed their fragile alliance.

Even you.

Our team is getting bigger and more members, and there are more and more handles that can be grasped by old A. He has the resources of the entire council arbitration tribunal, and we cannot compare with him in this respect.

And there is only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be any reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days? "

"Little sweetheart is right."

Harry, who was lying on Mason's shoulders and wrapped his eyes around him, said to Ciri:

"That's what bad guys think!

The last time Mr. J did something bad, he had this kind of thinking. It is impossible for a person to have no weaknesses, but once the weaknesses are caught by them, you can only let them play with them.

The only way to break the game is to seize the initiative!

Hey, it's like Batboy vs. Mr. J, every hard win he has comes from switching the initiative, and you can't expect to beat him where the bad guys are good at.

You can only pull them into your rhythm and let his thinking follow your rules, otherwise you can't come back. "

"I know this, I just think you're taking too much risk."

Ciri gritted her teeth and said:

"Don't you know your current situation?

You don't want to be that savior, but the fact is that you already are. Even if the integration plan can go smoothly without your participation, who can rest assured without you presiding over the overall situation?

You are not allowed to go!

Did you hear me? "

"I"

Seeing Ciri's tough statement, Mason was about to explain when the phone in his hand vibrated again, and Old A's reply appeared on the screen:

"What time and place do we need to chat? Don't make it so formal. I happen to be going to inspect an important facility in an A-level world under the council tomorrow night, so I can get rid of those annoying eyes.

I send you the coordinates.

Of course, you are also a big shot now, and you can't act as you like, so if you don't feel safe, where should I go?

Just like last time?

In addition, the first series of things helped you to suppress them. If you do this kind of thing in the future, let me know in advance so that I can be prepared. You scared them.

Good job, old K. (laugh)"

"Look at him, he's still in the mood to post an emoji!"

Harry screamed:

"But my grandfather lying in the grave doesn't even know how to use this kind of emoji that is out of date for eight hundred years! Hey! What kind of crazy primitive man is this old A?"

Uh, cutie's focus is always so strange. It seems that the old-fashioned smiley face emoticon that old A added at the end of this message triggered her uncontrollable desire to complain.

But Mason and Shirley focused on the content of the message itself.

"Let him come over to us!"

Ciri said in a deep voice:

"Find all the powerful guys you can find, and crush old A to death the moment he shows up!"

"It would be nice if things were that simple."

Mason shook his head and said:

"Even if he did come, it would probably be a clone or simply send a projection generator, he knew this, so he gave me a specific time and place.

The implication is already obvious.

If you want to see him in person, you have to come on his terms. "

As soon as he finished speaking, a phase coordinate used for plane travel was sent to Mason's mobile phone. Shirley wrote down the coordinate and immediately returned to the desk to find a gadget that was connected to the armillary sphere of the Constellation Club and began to locate it.

After a few seconds, Ciri looked up and said:

"It's not the place recorded by the stars, it's a secret earth under the council, but that plane is next to the center of the parallel world system, which proves that its existence is quite ancient.

Perhaps the Council had discovered it before the Stars would explore on a large scale.

That's not a fringe world, Mason, that's the core ruling area of ​​the council, you can't go there, it's a sheep in a tiger's mouth, Harley! Don't stay here spying on me, go spying on your sweetheart now!

Keeping him out of your sight and trying to go it alone or whatever is killing you. "

"Received! Follow orders, Lord Hunter!"

Harley straightened her waist, and after a military salute to her heels, she took out her sexy handcuffs and clacked herself and Mason's wrists together.

Obviously, she is very satisfied with this order.

I wish I could handcuff Mason to the bed right now and monitor him personally 24 hours a day.

"You don't have to be so nervous, I don't plan to go either."

Mason was a little dumbfounded.

He waved his hands and explained:

"Old A can use doubles to solve problems, and so can I, and I have so many avatars who have just become brothers with the same surname, I think they will be very willing to make a trip for me.

I just want to see what medicine is sold in the old A gourd, and I don't intend to step into an ambush that I can't win like a hero. "

"That's good."

Ciri finally relaxed, she thought for a while, and said to Mason:

"How about I go with your water body? I am also a member of the Gwent Society, and I..."

"Are you joking?"

Mason snorted and said coldly:

"Do you think that old A, who is about to end his life, still cares about this? You are not allowed to go, just stay here and wait for our war against the old devil to start.

Quinn! "

The captain called out, and a moment later a rift opened with speed force.

Quinn, who was leading a docile golden retriever, walked out chewing a rainbow lollipop, glanced at Harley who was sitting in Mason's arms and was protesting to her, raised her eyebrows in disdain, and then looked at Mason.

Little Sweetheart said to her:

"You and Harley change shifts, and then you will accompany the hunter to ensure that she will not do anything dangerous. Huh? Another text message?"

Mason looked down, and there was another text message on his phone.

But this time the sender was the magical "unnamed", a very short message from a number that theoretically could not send a text message, only two words plus a symbol:

"Don't come!"

This message fully illustrates a truth, that is, the fewer words, the bigger the matter.

"It seems that old A's heart is not in harmony."

Mason waved the phone to Ciri and said:

"I can probably guess who sent this reminder message, but are you really sure that Steve Rogers is related to the death of your parents? He doesn't seem to be a vicious person to me now.

To be honest, I thought he was the captain of the spicy and crispy Hydra before, but now it seems that this is really the image of the good old captain in my memory. "

"I didn't say he wasn't a good guy."

Ciri said with a straight face:

"I just hate him, this is my private behavior, don't be influenced by me, in fact, most of the time he is credible, he is a person with his own ideas.

As he told you the last time you met, he and old A have a very good personal relationship, but he is not a guy who helps relatives and doesn't help. "

"Okay, I'll take care of that."

Mason stood up, shook the clinking handcuffs on his wrists to say goodbye to Ciri, and turned away with Harley who was helping his arm.

Quinn stood aside expressionlessly, holding on to the dog leash and looking at Ciri, she was different from Harley, she wanted to perfectly fulfill the task that Little Sweetheart gave her.

"I won't suddenly grow legs and run away."

Master Hunter complained, and said to Quinn:

"I'm going to take a shower, do you want to come with me?"

"Um?!"

This invitation made Quinn's eyes widen, and she chewed the rainbow lollipop in her mouth with a click. She asked in amazement:

"What have you and Harley been doing these past few days? Have you been misled by her to such an extent? Did she still lie to you that kisses between girls are just a manifestation of friendship?

Hello!

Don't believe it!

Harley has done a psychoanalysis for herself, and she has a hidden tendency to lesbian! "

"You think I haven't noticed?"

Ciri rolled her eyes and said:

"Keeping her from sneaking into my bed every night, kicking her off three or four times doesn't take long to remember, but Halle's screeching voice is a pain in the ass.

When her demands are not met, she is like a cranky little devil, and there are too many ways to torture people.

Asking her to take a bath together can be an effective way to soothe her.

Of course, I have two bathtubs here, so don't think too much about it, do you want to come together? You and Harley are one, and if Harley has that problem, it means you have it too. "

"I don't!"

Quinn clenched her fist and replied:

"I've wiped out all the bad parts of my character with my love for Mr. K! You go take a shower, I'm walking the dog at the door.

This John Wick dog is clingy and I have to take good care of him. "

"Go."

Ciri snorted, got up and quickly prepared herself comfortable hot water, sprinkled it with flower petals, and then lay down in it. This was a way she used to think.

The soothing touch of the water always relieved her restless emotions a lot.

In fact, she didn't tell Mason that after she learned that old A had sent Mason an invitation text message, her uneasiness had been accumulating in her heart.

Although there is no definite evidence, Ciri can feel that he may become a breakthrough for old A to target Mason.

This feeling of being someone else's weakness really sucks.

"drop"

Just as Ciri closed her eyes, the communication notification sounded suddenly, which woke Ciri up suddenly. She glanced at the source of the audio communication and frowned.

Old A!

This is really something to be afraid of.

"Hello?"

Lord Hunter took a deep breath, connected to the communication, and said:

"Why are you looking for me? I'm busy."

"I know you are busy, our Q has always been a busy person, since you recruited old K as your subordinate, you haven't been involved in the internal affairs of the Quint Society much.

It is really enviable to have a capable subordinate. "

Old A made a lot of complaints, and then, with Shirley's impatient expression on his face, he finally got to the point. He said:

"I'm going to meet Mason tomorrow night. I think the situation between the two of us is quite awkward. If you can show up, it will make the atmosphere much better. So why don't you come here in advance to prepare?"

"I'm not going, I'm not interested in participating in the affairs of two boring men."

Ciri resolutely refused, and said:

"And I don't think Mason will go, give up on you."

"No, no, Mason will definitely come."

Old A said with a smile:

"Do you know why?"

"Um?"

Xili made a nasal sound, and she was still playing tricks at this time. She was dizzy before, how could she obey such a leader?

"Because you will definitely come. It is impossible for old K to leave you alone. This is the magical power of love."

Fury's voice came from the communication, and he said confidently:

"Don't rush to veto it, I know you will say that you are not that stupid, I know you will think that I use you as bait to lure Mason into the bait, which is actually the case.

But I won't use coercion, that's too low-level.

Ciri.

I want to give you a present."

"I don't need it! Save it, I've got it all."

Lord Hunter interrupted to end this meaningless conversation. Just when her finger was on the communication end button, a weak cry of pain sounded from the other side, like a thunderbolt hitting Ciri.

"The souls of Ms. Yennefer and Mr. Geralt have just returned from hell, and they are quite weak now"

Old A quietly said:

"Are you sure you don't come to pick up your poor parents home?"

"You bastard!"

Xili's anger completely exploded at this moment, and cracks appeared in the bathtub filled with water. This anger seemed to be felt by Old A who was far away from the plane.

He paused for a few seconds and said:

"Remember to come early, this is an important thing, so, dress up, OK?"

Ciri's fist was about to be crushed, but she gritted her teeth and responded, then put on a bathrobe and disappeared into the office, of course she didn't throw herself into a trap.

She had to tell Mason about it instead of just running over and messing things up by herself.

Look, this is the classic applicable scenario and correct use method of an external brain.
