Crimson Embers Chapter 16 Tony Stark’s legacy should be inherited by Tony Stark, doesn’t that make sense?
Mason didn't know what was happening in outer space, but he could probably guess that the distress signal sent from Planet Hope was unlikely to be responded to.
The reason is very simple.
He has people in both the Tenth Fleet and the Eighth Sequence. Although Dr. Halsey and Gollum are not on Mason's "trust list", both of them are people with beliefs. Even if we ignore their personal relationship with Mason, they will definitely make the right choice based on the overall situation.
It can be said that when the captain decided to get involved in the resistance's operation, he had already predicted the course of events today.
So while everyone in Hope City was on edge, Mason was as steady as an old dog.
After executing Tony Zero himself, he returned to the hall of the World Regular Meeting and began to transmit the coordinates of the Garden World collected by Harley and Quinn back to the New Osborn Tower through the Mobius Chair.
These precise world coordinates will inevitably play a finishing touch in the subsequent connection between the Rebel Alliance and the Garden World.
Apart from anything else, with less than five days left before the Fifth Impact, being able to accurately deliver Isu signal towers and magnetic field generators to these worlds means that as long as they don't mess up, they can survive the impact safely and join the "New World Family."
But Mason himself was calm, but the other envoys and representatives could not remain calm at all, especially the disturbing gunshots that just came from the lounge, and the result that two people went in and only one came out, which announced a cruel reality.
A Hope Council member who was in the inner circle of the ruling class was killed right before their eyes by the 18-year-old rebel leader.
The entire process took no more than five minutes from the beginning to the end, causing the figure who had been like a god in the past decade to die with less dignity than a frontline soldier.
This also allowed these envoys to truly witness Mason Cooper's decisiveness, cold-bloodedness and audacity in this regard.
In the enemy's core area, the enemy's leader was killed in front of so many people. This incident itself seemed to have revealed the crumbling of the Council's authoritarian ruling system and the strong rise of the new utopian forces.
Just as Mason had said in his declaration to them before, the general trend is like this, if you want to try to stop it, you should think about the consequences first.
As for those idle directors who had no power but only status, they were so scared that they collapsed on their chairs. They didn't even dare to breathe when Mason was busy, for fear that they would follow in the footsteps of Tony Zero.
They have realized that in front of a guy like Mason, the identity of a Hope Director is not enough to scare anyone.
"puff"
Just when Mason had uploaded three quarters of the world coordinates, a strange sound interrupted his action. When he turned back in surprise, he saw the jeweler Mason, who looked unhappy, re-emerging from his own body of water.
"Oh, was he killed?"
Mason pushed the frame on his nose and asked:
"What's going on? Weren't you looking for minerals and gemstones in Asia before?"
"I wonder too."
The jeweler stroked his chin and sighed:
"I was just happily digging a hole in the deserted mountains. Who did I offend? Was it necessary to bombard me with neutrons? It was just a flash of light, you know? I came back to you.
But before I was killed, I seemed to see a lot of Mark series armors flying across the sky. They should be the second sequence of Conquerors.
They are under the command of the Iron Tyrant. It seems that he is leading his army of conquerors to kill us.
But this guy is also Stark's alter ego. Logically, he should have a good brain and it's impossible for him not to see the general trend. Is it necessary for him to be so loyal and filial to the Council?"
"Maybe it's not just out of loyalty, maybe it's for something else."
Mason stroked his chin and uploaded the next world coordinates to the Mobius chair to complete alone. He stood up and walked out of the conference hall. After he took a few steps, his water body vibrated, and the blacksmith, tailor and inscriptionist all returned to their original bodies.
Needless to say, this must have been the same situation as the jeweler.
"You bastard actually attacked me!"
The burly blacksmith scolded in dissatisfaction:
"My furnace of good steel was about to be refined, but hundreds of assault armors rushed in and opened fire on me without any explanation. This is a poke in the armor's nest, right?"
"They have locked onto us!"
The inscription master screamed:
"It must be what Mason did here that provoked those bastards, causing them to hunt us down worldwide. I guess those guys must be heading this way."
Before the Crow Mouth could finish his words, a loud bang was heard in front of him. The wall of the World Conference Hall was blown open, and the whole venue was thrown into chaos with fierce flames and flying bricks and stones.
However, Mason used the water to turn into ice and blocked the explosion in front of him in an instant, so that the envoys here were not injured. The next moment, he saw Feng Yichao crawling out of the ruins of the explosion with a dusty face.
And in front of him, on the square filled with mechanical remains, an entire Mark Armor Commando team was closing in on him.
From the most primitive Mark I to the most advanced symbiote armor, from the slender Rescue armor to the huge Veronica Anti-Hulk device like a giant.
All kinds of armor that Iron Man could imagine and create were displayed in front of Mason like an armor expo, and in the dense and staggered anti-aircraft fire at high altitude, more armor continued to pour out from the opened quantum teleportation point.
They have obviously undergone technological upgrades, and each individual has dual resistance to energy and physics, which makes it difficult for anti-aircraft firepower to destroy them in a short period of time. Even if they are really destroyed in the air, they will not cause a large-scale explosion or complete damage.
On the contrary, those empty shells of armor will combine into new weapons of war after falling and continue to move forward.
Except for those special models of armor that require a driver, most other weapons are unmanned, and some are even made with precise internal structures to enhance the firepower and survivability of the humanoid armor.
It is no exaggeration to say that this mechanical army is the perfect crystallization of Tony Stark's super wisdom and talent in the field of weapons.
Their existence revolves around the commander of the second sequence, the Iron Tyrant and Iron Emperor Tony Stark.
"There's something wrong with your medicine!"
Feng Yichao shook off the dust on his body, floated up and gathered strength, while complaining to Mason who walked out of the chaotic regular meeting hall:
"The Superman drug took too short a time to take effect. It made me weak afterwards, which is why they succeeded in their sneak attack. Is the side effect so serious?"
"serious?"
Mason rolled his eyes and said:
"This is a new drug that has been improved twice. Isn't it normal for your biological energy to decay and become weak when you burst out in a short period of time?
It only takes ten minutes for you to recover, but if you can't wait I have this."
He pulled out a "solar ray" combat belt specially used by Superman from his bag and threw it to Superman in Windbreaker, who tied it around his waist with a click and activated it. The solar spectrum rays that were strengthened a thousand times allowed him to get rid of his weakness. He gave Mason a thumbs up in the golden light, and then accelerated in the air and pounced on the armored legion that was surrounding him.
The scene that followed can only be described .
With the low sound of metal collision, Brainiac, who was driving the Master Power Armor of the Universe, was ready to attack. Mason flicked his finger to the sky.
The silver-gray super power armor immediately popped out of the mount, and Harley and Quinn hurriedly mounted the external flight backpack and air combat module on the power armor. A few seconds later, Mason's super weapon also rushed into the sky in a shining silver light.
With its firepower and Xiaobu's precise control, the armored corps that was breaking through the sky above Hope City was in big trouble.
But Mason did not think that these iron armors that were carrying out the "human wave tactics" were the main force of the Second Conqueror Sequence. These things were at most cannon fodder.
The real tough guys haven't appeared yet.
"My dears, quickly guide our envoys to a safe area. They probably won't be able to evacuate immediately given the current situation."
Mason checked the time on his watch and said to Harry and Quinn:
"Take them to find old Luther. The resistance will protect them and arrange their return flight. They don't need to worry about the situation in the various garden worlds. New Osborne Tower will take action.
So they can relax and enjoy the council's meltdown day."
"That Iron Emperor is coming for you, sweetheart."
Harry said with some concern:
"If he dares to come, he must be prepared. Maybe it will be a vicious tactic against you. In short, you must be careful."
"Yes, I will."
Mason smiled, waved goodbye to his fiancée, and continued to move forward with his brothers to escape from the area that had been devastated by the bombing of Skynet and the Mecha Corps.
They were discussing what means the Iron Emperor would use to capture and kill Mason, but a few seconds later, thunderous explosions and rolls were heard in the sky.
Several Masons looked up at the same time and saw jumping arcs of electricity striking the ground in the flashing lightning in the sky. The scene was very similar to the appearance of Thor. Windbreaker, who was in the armored legion on the ground and was grabbing the torn arm of the anti-Hulk armor and using it as a hammer, was really unlucky.
He was hit by the dazzling lightning on the spot. He was blown away and turned several circles in the air before steadying his body and looking up forward.
A very special mechanical armor appeared amidst the lightning.
It still has the classic appearance and red and yellow paint scheme of the Mark Armor, but there are energy rings filled with lightning on all parts of its outer armor, and there are faint Asgard inscriptions on its arms and chest armor. It is clearly an energy system that imitates the structure of Asgard's puppet weapon destroyer.
This unique armor has weapon slots popping out all over its body, just like it is in an armor-exploding state, but its weapon is not an ordinary energy cannon or kinetic cannon, but a silver-gray long-handled warhammer.
Just like the Thunder Forge Hammer in Mason's hand, this weapon, which was modified from Asgard's Thor's Hammer Mjolnir, is surrounded by extremely high-energy lightning on its hammer head.
"cool!"
Mason whistled and introduced himself to the other Masons:
"This is probably a special anti-Thor machine of the Mark series armor. If I were to name it, I would call it 'Thunder Hammer'. Obviously, this super armor is the main force of the second conqueror sequence."
"boom"
As soon as the captain finished his "live commentary", Feng Yichao, who was attacked by surprise, accelerated and started a brutal close combat with the Thor Armor with the help of heat rays.
He used all kinds of freezing breath and super brute force all at once, and withstood the opponent's energy lightning attack that was almost a magical attack. After more than ten seconds, he tore the opponent's iron head off the body, and then detached before the horrific self-destruction program was activated. He also stole the long-handled war hammer and used it as a makeshift weapon.
"Tsk, it's not that great."
Feng Yichao took a look at the head of the Thor armor in his hand, which was still sparking , and used his five fingers to crush it into steel debris.
However, joy can only bring sorrow. The next second after he made some disdainful remarks about the main force of the Second Sequence Conquerors, more thunder roared in the sky above Hope City.
As Windbreaker watched with wide eyes, more than sixty lightning bolts bombarded him, engulfing him in the turbulent thunder prison. Each lightning bolt was a "cutscene" when a Thor's armor appeared. As Mason watched helplessly, Windbreaker, who had just performed a show of tearing Thor's armor apart with his bare hands, was surrounded by sixty thunder hammers.
"Alas, the Mechanical Legion has always had the dual advantages of quality and quantity. I only said it was the main force, not the only hidden model."
The captain and the Masons beside him all covered their eyes, unable to bear to watch the brutal scene of Feng Yichao being surrounded and beaten by sixty Thunder Hammer Armors.
Even if he could kill an elite machine every five seconds, it would take a full five minutes to wipe out all of them. The extremely high energy levels of these machines in five minutes of attack were enough to cause Feng Yichao to be seriously injured or even on the verge of death.
Of course, the latter is not a fool who would stand here and let himself be defeated by a group of violent robots.
He immediately adopted guerrilla tactics, withstanding the bombardment of lightning and knocking away the long-handled war hammers falling from the surroundings. He rushed into the sky at an extremely fast speed, intending to lure away these dangerous elite machines and then defeat them one by one. However, just at the moment when Feng Yichao rose to the top of the sky, a concentrated and fierce group of sonic energy launched a precise sneak attack.
The terrifying sonic boom and energy collision caused Windbreaker to be smashed from the sky to the ground again, and the black Mark series anti-Black Bolt armor also quietly appeared.
This thing is different from Thunder Hammer.
Just by looking at its unique appearance and special sonic energy generator, you can tell that this is a "collector's edition" mecha figure. Even if the Second Conqueror Sequence is wealthy, it is impossible to produce too many of them.
In the triangle surrounded by three black anti-Black Bolt armors, a unique quantum channel took shape in the jumping of light beams and was opened in the sky above Mason.
Then a figure stepped out from it.
It is still the classic design of the Mark series armor, but this guy's full set of armor presents a unique silver-gray appearance.
There was a silver-gray cloak connected to the back of the heavy metal shoulder armor that was set into the commander's form. The fluttering cloak made him look full of the majesty of a ruler as he floated in the sky.
The shoulder armor and breastplate are embellished with very cool royal patterns, which look very much like the patterns that medieval kings would engrave on their plate armor, which are meaningless except for being beautiful.
But the inscriptionist behind Mason could see the wonder of these patterns at a glance. He stared at the patterns, muttering to himself, and wrote and drew in his notebook.
"Mason Cooper!"
The Iron Emperor didn't waste any words when he appeared. He said directly in a low, muffled voice:
"Hand over the Gem of Wisdom. It is not your collection. I came here for it, and I will leave here after my desire is satisfied. Whatever you want to do has nothing to do with me."
"What if I say no?"
Mason raised his head and said something, and the latter snorted and waved his armored hand. The other Mason brothers who had not returned yet and were captured were all placed in the sky, winking at Mason one by one.
The Iron Emperor, who held a hostage, threatened in a deep voice:
"For their sake, I think you'd better..."
"Bang"
Before he could finish his words, gunshots rang out.
Mason, who had shot the engineer's heart, glanced at the Iron Emperor and said in a low voice:
"You have a very bad eye for hostages. No wonder you don't have a wisdom gem in your head. Are you going to take it and eat it? No, give up.
Eating what you want to replenish what you want is ineffective in increasing wisdom."
