Volume 9: Fate of Destiny Chapter 68: The new rules of the stars are like this, don’t do bad things
"Shua"
On the beach by the coast, Mason mobilized the water to shape one Mason family member after another, and then threw one crystal core after another to these guys to help them regain their independence amid their complaints.
He complained:
"I didn't allow you to come, but you insisted on coming. Now you're complaining about being dragged into a dangerous place. Don't you think you're feeling awkward?"
"Shut up, you ungrateful bastard."
While adjusting his "personalization" settings, the engineer responded angrily:
"Brother, aren't I here because I'm worried about you? Although we've separated now, the connection between the main body and the clone is still there. If you're hanging here for no reason, what's the point of everyone running far away?
Besides, with your weak fighting ability, if everyone is watching you, who knows what might happen."
"That's right."
The alchemist came over and said:
"I won't say anything else. The aftereffects of you drinking the million-star potion are scary enough. If we hadn't been there to keep you in check, you would have been eaten whole by Darkseid sooner or later."
"He is just like this, trusting no one. Batman has corrupted him! He was such a good young man before."
"Yes, that's right. Everyone is used to it."
The members of the Mason family gathered together to complain about Mason. After they finished talking, Mason pushed the hat on his head and said quietly:
“You may have forgotten one thing. The Hat has learned the magic to expel Darkseid Mason from Mephisto. Although it cannot be completely eliminated at once, it is not that easy for him to influence me.
But you're right, I can't be so harsh on you assholes.
Now that we are here, let’s discuss a plan of action.”
"What other plans do you need?"
The forger flexed his fingers and said loudly:
“The Mason family came here for punishment. This planet is full of villains who must be punished. Catch one and beat him half to death, then find the next one.
As long as we search quickly enough, we can find that bastard and make him pay for his crime with blood before Doom can react! Or how about we just kill him with a neutron?
If you expose the whole world, there will be no trouble. "
"You are too reckless."
This proposal was not only unpopular among Masons, but also among the other Masons. In the midst of their complaints, the most reckless blacksmith was excluded. Then the jeweler pushed his monocle and said:
"I think we still have to act in secret. Now that Old A and Mephisto are both dead, the only main villain left is Doom, and the others are just small fry who can't be mentioned in the spotlight.
We don’t have to expose ourselves because of them.
My idea is to hide first and focus on finding the fighting world where Doom is. After we confirm the place, we will launch a thunder raid and send down the divine troops from the sky.
We will destroy Doom with one blow, take care of the main culprit, and then go find those small fry."
"Well, that's a good idea."
The jeweler's plan was unanimously approved by the Masons. However, after he finished speaking, the socially anxious gatherer who was covering his face with a hunter's mask also stretched out his hand and stammered:
"Not only... Doom! Dr. Halsey of the Tenth Sequence said... There are some dangerous things in the Council... We also need to pay attention to that aspect... There must be something strange in this world!
The Council's headquarters...will not be simple."
"Yes, the gatherers' concerns are also correct."
The tailor tied his full set of needles and tools around his waist, squinted his eyes and said:
"We should make full use of our advantages. Mason will go find the fighting world, and the rest of you will blend into the water flow of this world to get other information. There are ten of us, and it would be a waste to gather them all together. Besides, we are too big a target and we will be easily discovered."
"I can make a potion that will make our breath disappear."
The alchemist grabbed Hufflepuff's golden cup and tried to make medicine on the spot. Mason did not stop him. He gathered the other Masons' ideas and said after thinking for a moment:
"Then we'll follow your suggestions and split up into two groups to look for valuable items. Old J said Doom's whereabouts are more secretive than Old A's. It may not be easy to find him in this base in a short period of time. We have to be patient.
But what I am worried about now is the 'Final Star' plan they have been pushing forward.
I have a feeling that our final battle with Doom will take place there. We are here to smash it, and this is one of our goals. That's it!
You guys go first, I have to go somewhere first."
Mason stood up and looked at the small city not far from the coast. He called out to Harley and Quinn, who were walking barefoot on the beach and taking beautiful photos, and asked them to bring the dog over.
"Where are you going?"
The alchemist took the time to ask.
Mason breathed a sigh of relief and replied:
"Old A died. I have to go and pay my respects."
"Tsk, that sounds so nice."
The inscription master whispered:
"Actually, we're going to confirm whether he faked his death or not, right?"
"I guess so, but we are colleagues after all, so we must follow the proper etiquette, otherwise it will be considered impolite."
Mason pointed to his heart and said to the other Masons:
"You know how to contact me if you encounter any danger. Be careful. Your elemental bodies are not omnipotent. This is the first collective action of the Mason family in the true sense. Everyone, behave decently, OK?"
…
"Buzz"
The huge space-time disturbance was quickly smoothed out in the sudden flash of light, and a dark, strange giant ship silently entered the target area from another dimension.
There are inscriptions of unknown meaning on the hull. Those are the characters of the Iron Blood species, representing the number of this huge ship in the species and the organization it belongs to.
Conqueror's eighth sequence!
This is an organization with outstanding achievements, an extremely brave legion, and a group that exists for glory and hunting.
Although they are ranked eighth, the Iron-Blooded Warriors are not newbies in the Conqueror system. This civilization that advocates the use of force joined the system during the "Great Expansion Period" of the Council of Hope, and from the moment they joined, they were assigned to perform hunting missions between various planes.
That's right, it's a hunting mission, not a war mission.
The fighting style of the Iron Blood Warriors is not very suitable for large-scale group combat. They are better at precision hunting of small units or individuals.
It is precisely because of this characteristic that the Eighth Sequence has become the most deadly arrow in the hands of the Council. Any organization or individual that is on the Council’s bounty list will be hunted down ruthlessly by them.
For the Iron-Blooded Warriors, such hunting is not just a task, a job or a duty, but also the most perfect way of life that matches the civilization they belong to.
The Council is able to eliminate threats, and the hunters can gain valuable experience and glorious trophies from hunting powerful enemies.
Therefore, at a time when the Council's business has suffered a severe setback and many of its subordinate organizations are quietly disloyal and intend to wait for the situation to change and secretly preserve their strength, the Eighth Sequence still complies with the Council's various instructions.
From an operational perspective alone, they are the most loyal military force under the Council.
Although the Predators do not consider themselves to be the Council's vicious dogs.
"Gulu! (Report to the elders! We are only five minutes away from the rebellious First Sequence Starport Base. According to intelligence, there is a very stubborn rebel force entrenched there.
Their leader is Zhu Shuai, a former high-ranking commander of the First Sequence. He is currently using that base as a center to incite underground rebels in several surrounding planes and spread their ideas.)"
A tall Iron-blooded Warrior strode into the command cabin of the huge spaceship and reported the situation to an Iron-blooded Elder who was sitting in a command chair made of steel and various trophy skulls.
The latter nodded, muttered a few words and assigned the combat tasks. The messenger quickly turned around and left to mobilize all the soldiers on the mothership to join the hunt.
This iron-blooded spaceship is the " territory and is also a symbol of his unique identity.
As an elder, it shoulders more important command functions than ordinary warriors. Although it possesses stronger and braver strength and more ruthless hunting wisdom than ordinary Iron Bloods, it will not easily step out of its warship.
It is the commander who must look at the overall situation.
But at this moment, the Iron-Blooded Elder, who should have been rational, showed a hint of complex emotions in his eyes, because he had received very bad news from his own channels.
The trace of their queen, the most powerful iron-blooded female warrior, has been discovered.
She did not die in the last war against Utopia, and instead of winning in glory, she degenerated into a pathetic "bad blood".
That is the derogatory term used by the Iron Bloods to refer to the fallen ones of their species.
In the past, when bad blood appeared, the elders closest to the area would always be responsible for cleaning up the mess. But this time the situation was obviously different. This was the first time in a long time since the birth of the Iron Blood Warrior civilization that a queen had fallen.
This news has alarmed the ancient iron-blooded elders on the mother planet. It is said that they have sent guards and arbitrators to hunt down the fallen queen.
It was this news that made Elder Tiexue uneasy.
The civilization of the Iron Blood Warriors is simple and rough. The position of the Queen is not based on inheritance or bloodline but on combat effectiveness and talent. The one who can become the Queen is definitely the strongest among all the Iron Blood Warriors. Falling into a bad blood means that she has given up all honor and principles, which will make her more deadly and dangerous.
If this situation is not handled properly, it will turn into a disaster for the entire tribe, not to mention that this queen who has been hunted down by her own people is one of the greatest queens in history.
It was under her leadership that the Iron Blood population was able to expand its hunting area to the entire parallel world system with the help of the Council of Hope. This greatly enhanced the power and reproduction of the population, making the Iron Blood Warriors a rare special civilization in the doomsday era that did not decline but instead became increasingly powerful due to disputes.
No matter how good Gollum was when she was the queen, she became very troublesome after she fell.
The elder of this flagship was originally one of Gollum's confidants. He was absolutely loyal to the Queen's majesty. However, the current situation made him hesitate whether to return to the home planet in person after the hunting operation was over.
It didn't dare to go against the decisions and judgments of the ancient iron-blooded elders, but it felt that there might be some misunderstandings...
How could the Queen rebel?
Although she also has a terrible and unrefined hobby of taming aliens, in the hearts of the elders, the queen is definitely a powerful and outstanding leader.
"Um?"
The sudden vibration of the ship woke the elder from his thoughts, and he immediately realized that something had gone wrong.
Its flagship was improved by the Hope Council based on the technology of the Predator. Similar vibrations would never occur during driving, which meant that the flagship was likely to be invaded!
The elder's hunting instinct immediately took effect. He stood up from his hideous chair, quickly put on heavy armor through a special armor-wearing device, and pulled out the hunting halberd he had been using since he was a rookie. After being fully armed, the elder quietly entered optical stealth and rushed towards the scene of the chaos in the most deadly hunting posture.
At this time, the Iron Blood battleship had been forced to stop in the starry sea not far from the First Sequence Rebellion Base. In addition to being blocked by General Zhu Shuai's terrifying telekinesis, it was also because an enemy commando team had silently infiltrated the ship without activating any invasion signal.
By the time they were discovered by the patrolling veteran elites, these bastards had already destroyed the ship's propulsion system.
It's a mutant!
From their black and white uniforms with the Council's combat unit logo torn off, it can be seen that they are the target of the Iron Bloods' operation.
These guys actually launched an invasion in the opposite direction?
You came at the right time!
Thousands of rookies and veterans on the entire ship did not panic. On the contrary, they quickly joined the battle with great enthusiasm.
But as soon as these iron-blooded warriors started fighting, they felt something was wrong.
The combat effectiveness of these guys before them was obviously stronger than that of ordinary soldiers of the first sequence, and they were more organized and disciplined. They did not look like the clones they were familiar with at all, but more like an army with special powers.
"Capture them if you can! Be careful of these guys' self-destruction after being defeated."
Commander Psylocke, carrying the Urugin sword, gave orders to her K-Men. Although the orders did not come directly from Lord Mason, because the matter was related to her compatriots, after Gollum issued an invitation to fight, Psylocke led the K-Men without hesitation to fight back against these conquerors.
But once they were on board, Gollum, who was supposed to lead the way, disappeared.
The commander didn't care.
These Iron Warriors are lone wolves who don't like to fight alongside others unless necessary.
Psylocke's command soon brought her trouble. The hidden Iron Elder was experienced and accurately captured her target. When K-Men advanced towards the interior of the Iron Ship, the isolation program that was suddenly activated instantly separated Psylocke from her guards. She reacted very quickly, drew her sword and engaged in close combat with the hidden elder who was attacking her.
But Psylocke's strength and combat experience were obviously no match for the elder. After a few seconds of confrontation, all the weapons in her hands were knocked away. Seeing that the fierce heavily armored warrior was about to pierce her with the hunting halberd, Psylocke planned to use her supernatural powers, but before she could activate the power, a slender figure suddenly appeared.
A precise and ruthless kick landed on the Iron-Blooded Elder's shoulder cannon, allowing Psylocke to dodge the attack. At the same time, another huge and brutal figure jumped out from hiding and struck the hunting halberd in the elder's hand head-on, breaking it into a twisted U shape. The latter was obviously completely suppressed in terms of strength, but was not afraid either.
As it retreated, it ejected its wrist knife. The elder smelled a terrible breath of danger from the monster in front of him, which was covered in iron-blooded armor but had an alien tail. This was definitely one of the most terrifying creatures it had encountered in its long life.
However, this also activated the elder's hunting frenzy again. After sizing up the opponent and moving several times, it took the initiative to attack and try to find out the monster's bottom line.
However, just as it jumped out, it was attacked again by a shadowy slender figure. The hot melt sword inlaid with alien skulls was swung, and the elder's wrist armor was picked up cleanly. In the dazzling close combat, the figure was easily suppressed and knocked to the ground.
"Shua"
The wrist knife wrapped with dark blue electric arcs popped out like a hidden blade and pressed against the elder's neck. The next moment, its visor was lifted off, revealing the old man's iron-blooded face full of scars but unyielding.
It wanted to activate the self-destruct device but was held down by the black-armored warrior in front of it.
"Gulu! (Put down your weapons!)"
The familiar scolding made the elder feel like he was struck by lightning, and then the black mask in front of him popped open, revealing Gollum's face, which looked quite sexy to the Iron Warrior.
But the next moment, the eyes of the two iron-blooded warriors became strange at the same time.
Because the thing Gollum used to suppress the iron-blooded elder in front of him was neither a hot melt sword inlaid with a skull, nor a dangerous and deadly wrist knife, but a rainbow wildebeest toy specially used to amuse babies.
Damn it!
Gulu's eyes jumped. He must have brought the wrong backpack when he ran out today! He took out little Madeline's baby backpack by mistake as his own combat backpack.
Ah, if that's the case, then when Emma was looking for a bottle to feed little Madeline, would she grab a dangerous high-energy particle assault rifle?
Damn it!
Gulu expressionlessly stuffed the wrong things back into the backpack filled with various baby supplies, and shamelessly pretended that nothing had happened. Then, looking at her former confidant, she whispered:
"Gulu (I have no intention of explaining my fall, but I ask you to think about the lives and future of your people, Elder, the Council's broken ship is going to sink.
But luckily I jumped on another boat.
I am now going to pull you ashore, just like I led you to join the Council, and now it is time for us to choose our sides again. )"
"Gulu! (The Ancient Elders Council has issued a wanted order for you. The Arbitrator and the Guards have already set out.)"
The Iron-Blooded Elder also woke up from the ridiculous embarrassment before. He looked at the blood mark on Gulu's forehead that represented the fallen one with great pain, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Gulu (Go!
They will locate you, they are here to kill you, the elders will not give you a chance to defend yourself, although you have fallen, but this is not in line with tradition. )"
"Gulu... (That's just what I want them to find. Let those guys wander around and hunt in the sea of stars. I will take you back to your home planet!)"
Gulu shook her black braided hair in disdain. She stretched out her hand towards the elder who warned her and said:
"Gulu. (I need to requisition your spaceship and your clan. We left to survive, and now we return to survive.
The ancient elders don’t know what’s happening in the outside world, but I’ve seen miracles with my own eyes.
The species has come to a crossroads again. We have to work together to pull it back in the right direction. I need your help, Elder, if you still trust me.
Um... and I might need to borrow your personal weapons collection... and don't tell anyone about what happened! It was just an embarrassing accident. )"
"Gulu... (I understand, I also have my own bloodline, this is normal, Gulu, I'm just curious about when you had a child...)"
"Gulu! (Shut up! Elder!)"
