Volume 5: The Young Wolf Seeks Home Chapter 15 Look, my family! What a beautiful view of the nuclear ruins. Hey, isn't that Logan?
"I am a weapon designed to save?"
Mason raised his eyebrows at Miss Anna's words, and then he realized a problem. He looked at the Rakshasa woman and said:
"You predicted the impact in advance?"
"Yes, although we didn't know it was called 'shock' back then."
The former X-Man sighed and explained more of the past secrets to her fellow countryman. She said:
“During that time, many people with prophetic abilities felt that a crisis was approaching. Whether it was Scarlet Witch or Phoenix, they all came to the same conclusion.
Since disaster is inevitable, it will happen.
The Weapon X program is said to be just one of many plans being promoted by the entire world. As far as I know, the Avengers in my hometown also have a similar self-rescue plan.
But unfortunately, a sudden nuclear war destroyed everything.
That night, we were on a mission in Europe and suddenly received a message from the professor, only then did we learn of the existence of you experimental subjects. At that time, the base of the Weapon X program had been invaded by the enemy.
We paid a heavy price in terms of casualties to snatch you from those super villains. Katie sent you out in batches and we didn't have enough time to collect more intelligence.
Therefore, if you want to know the answer, you have to find it yourself.
But I won’t let you go alone. Team Aix will provide full assistance. I’m ready to go with you and have selected a few key players to go with you…”
"No, I'll take my own team with me."
Mason waved his hand to reject Miss Anna's kindness. He could feel the guilt and eagerness to make amends from the attitude of the lady in front of him.
She felt that she had failed in her duties as an elder, but Mason had his own plans after all, so he shook his head and said:
"If the Grand Master of Warlocks and his faction have sealed off that world from others, it means there must be some secrets there that cannot be known to the public.
In this case, bringing people from that place would only do harm, so it would be better for "strangers" to carry out this unofficial development.
You don't have to worry about my safety, Ms. Anna, but the swordsman asked me to destroy that world, what do you think? "
"Then let it be destroyed."
Anna did not hesitate. She stood up and said:
“That place is no longer home!
Allowing it to disappear among the stars in a dignified manner may be the last mercy that we who have left our homeland can give it. No matter what the Grand Master Warlock and his followers are doing over there, that is not what we want to see.
Finally, there is an important news you must know. "
She leaned forward and said to Mason in a louder voice:
"There is an A-level personnel stationed in the hometown world. You have to be careful of him. Although it was once my hometown, it will not be friendly to you, a returning wanderer."
Mason fell silent and watched Anna disappear into the Gate of the World. The doubts in his heart did not diminish, but he believed that he would always find the answers in the next actions.
Just proceed according to plan.
The busy preparations continued until the next morning after breakfast, when the Grand Swordsman Master arrived as promised.
She "jumped" directly into the restaurant where Mason was, changed her clothes, and covered her face with a cloak, disguising herself as if she had no face to see anyone.
But her "disguise" is a bit too high-profile.
Sister, you are dressed in black, and no matter where you are, you are constantly sending the signal "Look at me! I'm preparing to cause trouble" to those around you. What's the point of such disguise other than exposing yourself?
But no matter what others think, the swordsman sister thinks her disguise is super cool!
She only showed her eyes and said to Mason:
"Are you ready? We have to set off soon. I sent Crazy Wade and his Deadpool Army to do something in other worlds and lure Warlock out of Star Castle, so that our 'smuggling' will not be discovered by him."
"I'm ready to go anytime."
Mason immediately called together his team members. The swordsman had no interest in this at first, but after seeing Mason call three Kryptonians in one breath, her eyes almost fell out.
"Hey! I asked you to destroy it, but not in this way!"
She screamed at Mason a little madly:
"The commotion caused by the three Kryptonians cannot be concealed. Don't underestimate Warlock's surveillance of the worlds under his command. This matter must be done quietly!
Enter the village quietly, don't shoot!
Understand?"
"I just take my new team members to experience the difficulty of pioneering missions so that they can be prepared for the exciting life in the future."
Mason curled his lips and said:
"Don't worry, I'm good at doing things secretly, and I won't make a mess for you."
"You'd better!"
The swordsman looked suspiciously at Mason, who confidently promised to carry out the secret operation. At that moment, she suddenly seemed to understand the hunter's complicated feelings towards Mason.
Why are this guy's actions so frightening even if they're just in the preparation stage?
Tsk tsk, it seems like it’s not easy to be Mason’s boss.
"Mr. K! We are all ready."
Wearing an Isu assault armor and chewing gum, Harley walked into the restaurant with her two colorfully painted dogs. On the backs of the two dogs were large and small bags of gifts and explosives, just like a traveler who was about to go on a long journey.
This scene made the swordsman unable to help but poke Mason's arm and said:
"Don't you provide your team members with luggage? Why do you use dogs to carry things?"
Mason didn't want to answer this question with a blank face. Look at what she asked. Which girl doesn't carry a lot of bags when she goes out? Why use a dog to carry things?
This is obvious, the bag is full, the sexy clothes alone fill up a whole bag...
"Well, your team members really have their own characteristics."
The swordsman said this against his will, and then turned his gaze away from Harley who was happily playing the stare-eye game with Bizarro. She calculated the time and took the note with the specific world coordinates from Mason.
This time it was an unreported "smuggling", so the World Gate could not be used, as that would directly attract the attention of the warlock and the administrators he placed in that world.
Although the swordsman is carefree, she is also an expert at traveling through the world. A big part of the reason why the three mentors can hold on to their positions is because of their innate ability to travel through the world.
In the past, when the World Gate had not yet been developed and promoted, all the actions of the Star Society were led by the three mentors. Now this job is just a "bitter past" for Liana.
After a brief phase confirmation, the swordsman locked the specific location in the parallel world system. The burning flames in her hands shaped a black soul blade, and after accumulating power, she slashed forward fiercely.
A black space-time rift then appeared and formed a door to an unknown world as it rotated.
“The landing point is random.”
The swordsman kept the space-time rift open while making threats to Mason and his K Team 2.0:
"You better pray that you don't run into the enemy's base camp. Ha, just kidding. Don't be afraid. I can still control the security zone.
Come in quickly.
Remember to contact me when you are done, and I will pick you up. Remember not to contact the outside world unless necessary, as every cross-world communication may be monitored by the treacherous Warlock."
"Your bad joke and bad taste are not funny at all."
Mason, wearing Isu vanguard armor and carrying a rifle, was the first to walk in, followed closely by Barbara and Harley. The new team members looked at each other, and everyone was a little scared.
After all, this black revolving door in front of me looks very ominous.
"Stop! We have to stop!"
Bizarro shouted as if to dissuade everyone, but under the swordsman's strange gaze, this Kryptonian who seemed to have some problems with his brain plunged in.
"He means we're going in."
Zod explained in a low voice to the swordsman, and then walked in.
"Hey, you guys!"
The swordsman turned his head and looked at the four people behind him, and threatened them in a vicious voice:
"According to the Star Society's rules, deserting a mission means being thrown into the sun. Do you want to go in on your own or do you want me to kick you in?"
“We’re just preparing!”
Supergirl lost the battle but not the person.
Although he was a little afraid, he still held his chest high and explained, then approached very cautiously as the swordsman watched in amusement, then took a deep breath and jumped in.
After watching Mason's team members enter the target world, the swordsman retracted the soul blade that maintained the rift and said with a disdainful curl of his lips:
"Tsk, a bunch of rookies, with no advantages other than great potential. Mason needs a pack of wolves, but all he has are immature puppies. I'd like to see how he leads these guys."
——
“Ahhhhhh!”
The piercing screams meant that Mason's journey into the new world was not going smoothly.
They started their journey to another world with a "fall from a high altitude", and the unreliable swordsman's landing point was nearly four thousand meters above the sky...
Harley was already screaming at the top of her lungs, and her already shrill voice even created a 4/4 rhythm as she fell.
But Lord Mason is also a veteran.
When he felt the weightlessness, he was not panicked at all. He spread his arms and grabbed the hands of Harley and Barbara who were falling behind him.
A flying backpack popped out from behind his Isu armor, and using the kite man's creativity, he spread out the falcon system's wings on both sides and smoothly entered a gliding state.
Harley, who was held in his hand, whistled and hurriedly put on a pair of flight goggles. She held Mr. K's hand tightly, feeling that only these hands could bring her some warmth in this dangerous world.
As for Barbara, Batgirl has already begun fine-tuning team communications and releasing reconnaissance drones in the new world.
"Dog! Your dog has fallen."
Mason said to Harley as he glided.
"Robin Girl" looked back at her two poor dogs rolling in the air and wailing miserably, and a smirk appeared on her pretty face.
Then he fished out a device like a bomb detonator from his belt and pressed it hard.
With a "bang", two parachutes painted with colorful clown patterns exploded from the backpacks on the backs of her dogs, allowing the two wailing big dogs to experience the feeling of skydiving.
The war dogs from Paradise Island were indeed extraordinary and incredibly brave. After realizing that they would not fall to death, they began to doggy-paddle in the air.
It seems that he is also experiencing this rare feeling of "ascension".
"I've already prepared for this. I learned from you. See if I've learned well enough."
She grinned and called out to Mason with another sweet smile. The captain shrugged without answering, but judging from his expression, he seemed satisfied.
"Spread out and scout!"
Mason gave an order in the already launched team communication, and the two smart Kryptonians and Firestorm immediately rushed off in three directions.
Not long after, Zod sent back the message:
"Mason! We found a Gobi farm here, fifteen kilometers to the northwest."
Zod's voice then sounded in the communication, and he said:
"I flew around and found some explosion craters. The radiation levels there are alarmingly high. I've marked them on the electronic map. Don't go near them.
In addition, there are very few residents around here, and they all survive here in a sporadic manner, and their living conditions are quite poor. I am approaching the farm ahead.
Wait a minute, I found signs of life.
This is……
Wait! Mason, you are from this world, right? Have your compatriots ever told you that there are green people in this world? "
"Greenskin?"
Mason and Barbara looked at each other and said to the hacker sister:
"Connect to Zod's perspective, let me see what that thing is?"
At the same time, on a distant farm, several strange-looking green men jumped off a strange-looking bathtub car and kicked open the farm gate with an angry voice.
They are all muscular and green guys, with humanoid appearance but very rough, wearing jackets with a strong wasteland style and marching along in noisy heavy metal rock.
Mason could see from the picture that the rusty artifact car was badly smeared with strange objects, just like meaningless graffiti on the wall.
There was a chain dragging behind the vehicle, with several skeletons tied to the chains.
Just looking at this scene, the "style" of the wasteland is almost instantly maximized, and the indescribable desolation and vicissitudes are almost overwhelming, representing a world where order collapses after the end of the world.
After the three guys, two men and one woman, jumped down, they started yelling inside, acting like undisguised bullies.
"Old Houtley! Come out! Coward!!"
A large green man grabbed a piece of farm fence that had been casually broken and swung it like a war hammer. He roared:
“You should pay the rent this month.”
"No, they didn't pay the rent last month! According to the rules, we have to tear this damn place down."
The other green man flexed his fists and said with a bloodthirsty look on his face:
"Strangle them to death and bathe in their blood."
"No, kids, Houtley is an old friend, you have to be nice."
The third green person was a woman.
She was tall and wore a strange skirt. After she spoke, the two irritable guys immediately stepped aside and said in unison:
"All up to you, Mom."
At the same time as the three green men broke into the farm, the door of the already very dilapidated house was pushed open, and a black-haired young man rushed out holding a large-caliber shotgun.
He was very angry, pointed the gun forward, and shouted in a trembling voice:
"Get out of my house, you beasts."
"Silly boy, who are you trying to scare with that poker?"
The three green men laughed. Having inherited the blood of Father Banner, they also inherited the power of the Hulk. Bullets? Tsk, not even enough to tickle.
"Let your father come out!"
The green female shouted:
"You have already defaulted on rent for three months, so are you going to use our water for free? Look at this desert, where is the water? If you don't pay, don't even think about using the water!
That’s the rule.”
"Mrs. Banner, we have already paid half a year's rent."
During the tense confrontation at the door, a tall but bent old man walked out. He was wearing a shabby denim suit, had gray hair and looked old.
When he rushed out, he reached out and pressed down his son's raised shotgun, and tried to reason with the three guys in front of him.
He said:
"You can't just raise the price. This was agreed upon between the Hulk Gang and the nearby residents when they were first established."
"The water is in our hands. What can you do if we raise the price?"
Mrs. Banner's eldest son spat rudely and barbarically to the side. The bastard said nonchalantly:
"If you can't stand the rent, you can move somewhere else, just like those unlucky guys who tried to escape and were caught by us, Hautley. I heard that you, a poor guy, were also very powerful when you were young. When Dad was dizzy, he always told us how powerful you were.
Why are you so humble for such a small amount of money now?
How about this?
Come and fight me, and if you win we will give you a few more days."
This is obviously a provocation.
But Mrs. Banner and her other son not only did not stop it, but they looked like they were enjoying the show. The noise also alarmed the women and girls in the house.
Old Houtley's wife and daughter ran out, and they nervously tried to bring the head of the family back to the room. The scene was like an honest person being bullied.
Faced with the numerous challenges posed by the son of Hulk, old Hautley just shook his head as his son looked at him in disappointment.
He said in a supplicating voice:
"Give me a few more days and I'll pay the money."
"No! This is not about money anymore."
The son of Hulk refused to give in.
He tore open his dirty shirt, revealing his green muscles that looked like they were cut by a knife or an axe, and said:
"Dad has always wanted to meet you. He has invited you hundreds of times in the past ten years, but you always refused! If you don't give face to Dad Banner, you are also not giving face to our Hulk Gang.
Today you either come with us or defeat me, there is no third option!
Your wife and children are all here, Hautley, come and fight me like a man! Otherwise your family will suffer, hahahaha.
Dad has always said he wants more children, and I think your wife is pretty good."
He grinned, his body swelled with surging fighting spirit, just like the legendary Hulk who became more powerful the angrier he got, but Hautley was still unwilling to accept the challenge.
He whispered something to his son, then drove him, his mother and his sister back into the room and stood guard at the door.
There was no longer the passion and indomitable spirit in his old and lifeless eyes . Even the kid in front of him who only knew how to rely on brute force to commit crimes was like a prodigal son to him.
If it really comes down to a fight of life and death, he has thirteen ways to make these three idiots die miserably within ten seconds. They just inherited Hulk's bloodline.
But they are not the Hulk, and they are far from invincible.
only……
"I think you need to find a guy as big as you to fight, that would be fair."
Just when the confrontation on the farm was about to escalate, Harley's shrill voice of dissatisfaction rang out outside the farm along with the smoke and dust. Lady Robin hated this kind of unethical behavior of bullying the weak with the majority.
She staggered down from behind Bizarro, who was flying at supersonic speed, and yelled while leaning on a baseball bat:
"What's the point of bullying a poor old man? Bizarro, beat him up!"
This time the Demon Superman did not obey.
He glanced at Mason, and when Mason nodded in agreement, Bizarro immediately roared and rushed towards the big green guy in front of him with two howling dogs.
Seeing that someone else was trying to mess up the situation, Mrs. Banner and her other son quickly prepared for a fight, but then two figures fell from the sky.
This turned the originally planned three-on-one game into a 3V3 game in an instant...
No, it should be 4V3.
Because Harley also rushed forward excitedly with a baseball bat in hand. She would not miss any righteous fight where the majority bullied the minority.
Firestorm, Blue Beetle and Barbara did not participate in the battle. They were guarding around the farm. Mason whooshed across the battlefield and appeared in front of old Houtley like a flash.
He frowned and looked at the surprised old man in front of him.
After a few seconds, he said in a complicated tone:
"Logan, Wolverine...what on earth have you been through to become like this?"
