Trajectory of Dawn in the World of American Comics

"My God, this is a massacre."

After receiving the news, Gordon hurried back to his home with a group of police officers. The chief had personally seen the destructive power of Mason when he showed his power, but the other police officers were taken aback as soon as they arrived on this street.

The power to the entire neighborhood was cut.

On the street in front of the house lay a group of stunned penguin gangsters, three headshot corpses and three unlucky ones who were hit by a car and died.

The backyard is even more incredible.

More than 20 corpses of men in black with miserable death made several young police officers vomit directly. Even the old police detectives who have been police in Gotham for many years couldn't bear it.

They got together to chat about the butchery-like massacres in theaters when the Joker first took off.

Although the law and order of Gotham has been slow in recent years, since the number of residents in Arkham Asylum has increased, and Batman's continuous high-intensity night patrol has not seen such vicious shootings for a long time.

"Director, we found six weird headless stone sculptures in the alley opposite."

A policewoman with a pale face ran over and reported to Gordon who was smoking silently at the gate of the courtyard. The Chief waved his hand and rubbed his forehead very tiredly and said:

"Move back to the evidence department, maybe that's evidence too. You guys are busy here, I'm going to see my daughter, she must be terrified."

Several other police detectives nodded, and they looked at their chief with pity.

These detectives all knew the tragedy that happened to Barbara Gordon in the early years, so no one stopped the chief's action at this time.

Because there were dead bodies in the house, Barbara and Mason were moved to the neighbor's house in advance, which was also a backup safe house for the police station.

The kind that is uninhabited all year round.

When the chief opened the door and came in, he saw a strange stone sculpture in a dark living room. The guy was wearing a full bat suit, but his face was not the one Gordon was familiar with.

The chief was even more weary.

He picked up the flashlight to identify them, exhaled a smoke ring, and said:

"Dick Grayson, you stole my daughter's heart and you have the guts to come back?"

"Dad, come help! We need lights."

Barbara, who was in a wheelchair, heard the movement and opened the door, and called her father into the kitchen. Director Gordon smelled a very bad smell when he walked in.

As a result, he scanned forward with the flashlight, and found that Mason Cooper, that little bastard who had just slaughtered more than 30 people, was standing in front of the dining table and cutting some strange things.

He also had a lighted alcohol lamp and a weird liquid that was constantly roasting on the flames, and the unpleasant smell was emitted from the liquid.

"What is this doing?"

Director Gordon said expressionlessly:

"To celebrate Mason's success in blowing the heads of 30 people off tonight, so do you want to cook for yourself?"

"Hush!"

Before Mason could speak, he looked curiously at Mason's busy Barbara with black-rimmed glasses, and raised his finger to quiet his disgruntled father.

She explained in a low voice:

"Mason is configuring the antidote for the petrification potion, this is the alchemy he learned from the dark wizard who took him away, and he is also trying to do this for the first time.

Dad, don't make trouble. "

"He can do alchemy?"

Commissioner Gordon was supposed to ask the teacher about the crime, but when he heard this, his eyes widened.

Although being a policeman in Gotham has given him a lot of experience, this kind of magical thing still makes the old man a little curious.

He illuminated Mason with a flashlight, and found that the young man was meditating on a certain process, chopping up a dry ginseng-like paper in his hand with a kitchen knife and grinding it in a bowl, waiting for it to be boiled on the alcohol lamp When the strange-colored and unpleasant-smelling soup boiled, the medicinal powder was sprinkled into it while stirring with a crystal stick.

"boom"

A cloud of purple mist mixed with sparks erupted from the small bowl, startling Director Gordon and Barbara, and the unpleasant smell in the kitchen also suddenly changed into a smoke with a herbal aroma.

Gordon took a sniff and immediately felt refreshed from his weary spirit.

"It's almost time to boil for another thirty seconds."

Mason stirred the liquid in the small bowl that was constantly heated with a crystal rod dedicated to alchemy, and said to Barbara:

"Unfortunately, I don't have a dedicated mithril crucible, otherwise it wouldn't take so long. Mandrake resurrection potions are the simplest alchemy items. As long as there are raw materials, few people will fail to brew them."

"It's amazing stuff, I haven't seen anything like this in the Batcave."

The former Batgirl pushed her glasses excitedly, and she said:

"What else can you do besides petrifying and de-petrifying people?"

"Uh, I don't know much, but I have the old wizard's alchemy notes in my hand."

Mason blinked, took this opportunity to rationalize his alchemy skills, and said:

"In the future, when I have time, I can try to make more potions. I remember that there is a 'beautiful potion' in that note, which is said to keep ladies young forever, and make the skin tender and hydrated."

"Well, I like this."

Barbara's eyes lit up, and she said:

"I want to order ten bottles!"

"I don't think you may need to."

Mason glanced at her and whispered:

"You're pretty enough already."

"I can't use it now, but it's hard to say in the future. You see, I have been in a wheelchair all year round and lack of exercise. My skin will definitely get worse. I feel that my hair has no luster recently.

Hey, can you make some magic diet pills or something.

I feel that my stomach has fat, and there is a cough of breast enlargement. We will talk about this in private later. "

No matter how experienced Barbara Gordon is, she is only a girl in her twenties, and her pursuit of beauty is their instinct.

But seeing that her father had already frowned, she immediately stopped talking, and urged Mason to take the boiled medicine to save her boyfriend who was capsized in the gutter.

"Successfully complete a standard craft Alchemy creation, and the proficiency of alchemy skills will increase."

Mason knew that the potion was ready when he saw a prompt popping up on the light curtain in front of him.

He took off the hot bowl with his grill mitts, strained out the residue, and handed the strange colored potion to Barbara, saying:

"Pour it on his head, don't try to feed him, drinking water in a petrified state will make him choke to death."

"oh."

Barbara took the potion and pushed the wheelchair out of the kitchen, while Mason packed these things in place. The dregs of the Mandrake are harmful to the human body and must be disposed of professionally.

Commissioner Gordon also stayed here.

After his daughter left, he lit a cigarette and said to Mason:

"You did a little too much tonight, I mean you got blood all over my house, did you do it on purpose? Mason, decline my invitation in this way?"

"I just want you to see my danger for yourself, Gordon, and I swear I mean nothing else."

Mason sealed the dregs of the medicine in a special jar and kept shaking it in his hand, turning his head and saying:

"I thank you and Barbara for your kindness, but you have also seen that until this shit is over, I can't get close to you people who have good intentions for me, and please don't burden me psychologically.

I will go to my former friend and he will help me find a place to stay.

You've seen it with your own eyes, and I've shown that I'm capable of protecting myself in Gotham. "

Director Gordon frowned and smoked in silence. Mason didn't disturb his thinking. When a cigarette was burned, the director raised his head and said:

"Okay, I won't stop you. But you must sign the guardianship document and come back at least once a week, even if it's just for show, contact me immediately if you encounter trouble.

can you do it? "

"I'll sign it."

Mason glanced at Gordon. He didn't refute or put forward any conditions. It was already a big victory for Gordon to allow him to move out. Next, he just needed to contact the kiteman to find a place to stay.

Speaking of kitemen.

"Uh, Gordon, my friend is in some trouble now, and I want to consult you."

Mason threw the jar that had been shaken at least a hundred times into the trash can, washed his hands, and said in a low voice:

"Do you know 'Kite Man'?"

"Charles Brown?"

Gordon is worthy of being the chief of police. He knows all the villains in the city. He immediately reacted when Mason mentioned his nickname, and said with a strange look in his eyes:

"That guy used to work with the clown, but after the clown broke him down, he had nowhere to go, so he robbed the bakery and was sent to prison by my own hands.

Your friend is him?

All right.

He's not exactly the kind of guy who's too bad to be saved, but Kite Man escaped from prison some time ago. "

"It's just that he wants to see his son."

Mason explained:

"If Charles wants to end the lawsuit on himself."

"Just go to the police station and pay a deposit."

Gordon shook his head and said:

"How much crime can he have just robbed the bakery? In fact, Charles could have been released from prison a long time ago. He just kept making small mistakes and stayed in Blackgate Prison to eat a delicious big bowl of prison food, and was afraid of being ganged up by clowns when he went out. Some people seek revenge and hide there.

He is a 'gangster traitor' just like you.

You have to be careful with him, although the clown gang has collapsed, but that madman still has some diehards wandering around the city, and the kite man is their target. "

"Okay, I'll tell him, Gordon."

Mason was finally relieved.

He walked out of the kitchen to check on Dick Grayson. Gordon remained there. After Mason left, Gordon lit another cigarette, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and dialed a number.

A few seconds later, the hoarse voice of the real master sounded on the phone:

"Gordon, I'm busy."

"I'm just telling you that Mason killed another 30 assassins from the League of Assassins tonight and protected my daughter, but those Assassins are staring at him, and he wants to move out."

Commissioner Gordon said in a low voice:

"Also, your 'retired Robin' was captured by him with a strange potion, and he learned a lot of strange skills from the dark wizard who took him away."

"Let him go."

The old man said briefly:

"As soon as the matter here is over, I will rush back as soon as possible. Gordon, you didn't tell Mason about that, did you?"

"not yet."

The chief sighed, rubbed his face and said wearily:

"But he'll find out sooner or later. The boy is very alert."

"I'm speeding up my investigation of the hidden story behind Mason's life experience."

Master said:

"After I have a clue, I will choose a time to tell him that it is very important that you keep an eye on him and not let him run around."

——

"ah"

The Wizard's Notes say being petrified is pretty bad.

It is said that just like the body dies and the soul is sealed in it, it can feel everything around it but cannot respond.

A few seconds after Barbara Gordon poured the potion down Dick Grayson's head, the petrified state of the "retired Robin" quickly dissipated.

As the stone chips flew all over the ground, the handsome and handsome guy fell to the ground in a panic.

He gasped like a fish out of water, and it took him a moment to calm down.

"Great, Grayson."

Barbara cheered, reached out to pull her boyfriend up from the ground, recalled Mason's complaints before, and glanced at her boyfriend's buttocks quietly.

Huh~ It's really warped!

No wonder Mason could tell at a glance that it wasn't Batman himself.

"you guy"

The original Robin Dick Grayson nicknamed "Nightwing" saw Mason leaning on the table next to him and staring at him at a glance.

Unhappily, he picked up the bat helmet handed by Barbara and buckled it on his head, and then used the built-in bat voice to make his voice hoarse exactly like the original master.

Say to Mason:

"It's a shameless sneak attack!"

"Sneak attack, of course! I'm no match for you, Mr. Ye Yi."

Mason folded his arms and put his low-key but deadly crit shotgun by his legs. The Sujie Eagle was thrown back into the bag on his waist. He looked at the somewhat annoyed Nightwing and said:

"So, didn't Batman ask you to come back to replace him in Gotham? What can we do without you, a great hero, in that miserable place in Bludhaven?"

"You're kidding, right?"

Grayson waved his hand angrily.

But he has always been an open-minded and gentle person, and the resentment in his heart quickly dissipated under the soft persuasion of his girlfriend Barbara.

He said a few words of love to Barbara, then looked back at Mason, and said in a serious tone:

"I didn't come here tonight just because I saw Barbara's distress signal, Mason Cooper, I have something very important to confirm with you."

As he spoke, the "Master Bat" took out something familiar to Mason from his multifunctional belt.

It was the sword-shaped hard drive that Catwoman stole from Penguin a week ago. Nightwing handed it to Mason and said very seriously:

"Let me ask you, you didn't try to copy the information on this hard drive in the short period of time you got it from Catwoman and before you gave it to Batman, did you?"

"I was going to drive and I was going to shoot."

Mason frowned and said:

"I only have two hands, so of course not. What's wrong with this hard drive?"

"The information inside is automatically destroyed."

Ye Yi said angrily:

"Batman commissioned me to track this down before he left, but as soon as I opened it with the Batcomputer, that information set off a security alert.

This kind of operation can only happen when the internal information is copied or transferred, so I suspect that the hard drive has actually entered the automatic destruction process before it was sent to Batman. "

"Then you should go to Catwoman."

Mason narrowed his eyes and said:

"She is the most likely person to do this. Where is she?"

"She slipped away."

Nightwing rubbed his forehead with a headache and made a move that Batman would never make.

He said:

"Just thirty minutes after Batman left Gotham, she slipped away from the Batcave. I came here to ask, have you contacted Catwoman since you returned to Gotham?"

"I don't even have a cell phone."

The young man shook his head and gave an irrefutable reason.

Ye Yi fell silent for a moment.

A few seconds later, he handed the sword-shaped hard drive to his girlfriend and said:

"Then it's up to you, Barbara, to try to check the remaining information on this hard drive with the astonishing hacking skills of Your Excellency 'Oracle'.

As for you, Mason. "

He said to the young man:

"We have to find Catwoman as soon as possible to confirm whether the information on the hard drive is in her possession.

I learned from other sources that the League of Assassins and the Penguin Gang must capture you for the same reason.

The information that may be taken away by Catwoman hides secrets that they don't want people to know, and more importantly, the person who attacked you is also tracking her. "

The young master paused and stretched out his hand towards Mason.

He whispered:

"Let's find her together, this matter will not end, and you will never really start a new life."

"OK."

After thinking for a while, Mason happily reached out and patted the young master's hand, saying:

"I just want to see that big sister again."
