Trajectory of Dawn in the World of American Comics

In the deep passage of the main prison area of ​​the Black Gate Prison, Mason found the zombie Fang Fang who was dozing in the sea of ​​blood and corpses, and the latter had perfectly completed its task.

An entire Assassin's League black warrior team has a total of 35 people, which will be "evenly" distributed throughout the passage.

The luckiest of them only lost a hand or a leg before dying, wandering aimlessly through the passages.

And those who have been completely torn to pieces are naturally impossible to turn into zombies to scare people everywhere.

After completing such a brilliant record, it is impossible for the zombie dog to be unscathed. In fact, even with the blessing of the resurrection stone fragments, Yaya's black skin is still covered with wounds that have not yet healed.

One of the most deadly wounds stretched from the abdomen to the heart, almost blowing its huge body apart.

"The combat power of the elite warriors of the Assassin Alliance should not be underestimated. If they hadn't encountered a real 'undead beast', they would have been very likely to turn defeat into victory.

And this is without the leadership of a commander like Bane or Deathstroke. "

Mason, who was wrapped in an invisibility cloak, carefully observed Yaya's state. He came to a conclusion in his mind about the comparison of combat power. Zombie dogs and zombie cats also bullied ordinary soldiers. It might be a bit awkward to meet a super villain who is good at force. live.

"Good dog, come here!"

Mason stopped thinking about the future.

He took out the voodoo birdcage from his arms in a blind spot where the camera couldn't see, took off his invisibility cloak and whistled to Fang Ya who was lying there.

The zombie dog and the zombie were alarmed at the same time, but Fangya was obviously faster. The 1.5-meter-high zombie roared and got up, limping towards Mason.

There was no emotion in the scarlet eyes, only cruelty remained, and the moment Mason rushed over, he was locked in by Mason's familiar activated voodoo birdcage, and held it into his arms as if by magic.

"The second weakness of zombie dogs is that they have no brains. Miss McGonagall seems to be a little smarter than the two of them in this regard."

The young man stood up and glanced at the swaying zombies in front of him, pouted and was about to leave, but when he put on the invisibility cloak, he suddenly noticed the glimmer of the eye of hell pin on his collar.

This made Mason startled, then frowned.

The collar pin given by Zha Kang predicted a danger for him before, but the description of this thing also has the ability to detect hidden life, and the current situation in the entire Black Gate Prison has very few living people.

Especially in places where Fang Fang's rampage has raged.

So, there's someone hiding nearby?

Mason immediately became alert.

What he is most afraid of now is that someone from the Bat family hides nearby and sees him recovering the zombie dog, which means that his whereabouts are at risk of being exposed.

Although he can guarantee that he didn't hurt a good person tonight and ruined the Penguin Gang and severely damaged the League of Assassins' power in the city, it is estimated that Batman will not listen to his explanation.

He put on the invisibility cloak calmly to make himself disappear in place, and said to the kite man through the earphone:

"The plan is changed, Charles, don't worry about me, go directly to join the Bat Family, and I will work with Director Gordon to find a way to get out."

"Got it, boss. Then I'll destroy this headset."

The kiteman responded, and then Mason heard a busy tone that the contact was interrupted. He took off the headset in his ear and threw it into the suitcase, and then began to look around in a concealed state.

At the corner of the second floor of the main prison area, about 100 meters away from where Mason disappeared, Catwoman was covering her mouth and trying to shrink herself into the corner next to her.

Just now, she clearly saw the terrifying zombie monster being stored by Mason with strange things.

Although a plague of zombies had already broken out when she arrived at Black Gate Prison, she probably guessed everything that happened here through the short period of sight just now.

The image of Mason Cooper as a shy young man who was always silent but with great character collapsed in her mind and was replaced by a dark villain with a sullen mind and brooding dark things.

She even felt that Mason might be more dangerous than the Penguin or the League of Assassins.

Those guys had to do it themselves anyway, but Mason wielded a dangerous power that was different from the average villain.

"I have to tell Bruce about this!"

This was the first thought that came to Catwoman's mind.

As Batman's lover, she knew very well that Batman had an abnormal interest in Mason Cooper, perhaps because Mason's work style and personality were very similar to the dead Jason Todd.

In order to find the missing Mason, Batman even broke his solitary rule and invited other superheroes to help find him.

Five minutes ago, Catwoman didn't think it was a big deal.

After all, my boyfriend did have an indescribably peculiar "adoption addiction" because of his childhood tragedy.

But now she doesn't think so.

Turns out Mason Cooper is far more dangerous than Jason Todd!

The latter is just cranky and rebellious, while the former is...well, not so easy to say. In short, she must prevent Bruce Wayne from continuing to approach Mason Cooper.

But on the other hand, Catwoman is very tangled.

She always felt that the young man Mason was not a bad person. This was not due to the lady's emotional thinking but the conclusion she had reached after several contacts with Mason.

After so many years in Gotham, Catwoman still has some confidence in her vision, and if you count the time at Dr. Leslie's clinic, Mason has saved her twice.

Repaying kindness and revenge is not her code of conduct.

This is also the reason why Selena didn't report what she saw to the bat communication network in the first place. She hid in place and thought for more than ten seconds before finally making up her mind.

Batman will be rushing back to Gotham soon anyway.

Maybe that man will be rushing over to the Black Gate Prison, I'd better tell Bruce about it first, and then see his decision.

But before that, I have to avoid continuing contact with Mason Cooper, who currently seems to be "both good and evil".

"Snapped"

Just when Catwoman made up her mind to sneak out of the Black Gate Prison first, a hand was pressed on her shoulder without warning, which made Ms. Selena tense and wanted to fight back.

Then, she heard a voice behind her.

"Didn't I tell you not to come over? Sure enough, it is a cat that never obeys obediently."

With strong helplessness and distress in Mason's voice, he said:

"Did you see it all?"

Catwoman felt no hostility from the young man.

She slapped Mason's paw away, stepped back and stared at him vigilantly, as if looking at a monster in the skin of a 17-year-old.

"Aren't you going to explain?"

She grabbed the cat's tail whip in her hand, and the handle of Su Jie's Eagle with the other hand. But then she realized that Mason had lent her the sword, so she immediately let go of her fingers and stopped touching it.

It was as if the sword was also infected with a dangerous zombie virus.

"There is nothing to explain, and it is difficult to explain in a sentence or two."

The young man didn't hold a gun but just leaned on Penguin's armed umbrella. He stood in place wearing a blood-stained silver-gray invisibility cloak, and said to Ms. Selina:

"Can you promise not to tell Batman what you saw? I still have to live in Gotham, and being regarded as a dangerous person by him is bound to make it difficult for me to move here."

"Of course I can. We're on the same team, Mason."

Catwoman immediately replied, but both sides fell silent at the same time.

Two seconds later, Mason said:

"You're lying! You won't betray your lover again for a boy you haven't seen more than five times, Selena, you love him deeply, and you won't allow another dangerous person to get close to him.

Batman is on his way here, so I have to wrong you first.

I have to ask you to go to a safe place to rest for a few days until we work out a perfect solution with each other.

take it easy.

I will not hurt you.

Whatever you think, but I think we are friends. "

"What if I say no?"

The cat's tail whip in Catwoman's hand was hanging on the ground, she bent down like a black cat about to pounce, her eyes narrowed under the ruby ​​goggles, she asked sarcastically:

"Would you send your monsters to eat me? Like you made them turn this prison into hell."

"Blackgate Prison is a hell of filth, Selena, I just restored it to the way it should be. My only regret about what happened here tonight is that it came a little later."

Mason raised the penguin umbrella slowly, and said softly:

"Batman thinks everyone deserves a second chance, but I'm more of a cut-throat."

"nonsense!"

Catwoman swung her whip at Mason, and the young man also pulled the handle of the umbrella, turning the already activated intracranial disruptor into the attack mode.

The invisible electromagnetic wave is obviously faster than the flying whip.

Before the cat's tail whip whipped Mason, Catwoman felt dizzy, nauseated, and staggered back to the railing on the second floor.

The whip that had lost its target was grabbed by Mason, and with a ruthless yank, Catwoman's long whip was released from his hands.

Seeing Mason walking towards him holding the umbrella that continuously exudes a strange force that made him dizzy, Catwoman gritted her teeth and pulled out Su Jie's eagle, flipping the blade and stabbing the young man.

The dazzling sword light scattered in all directions, but Mason, who had covered his eyes in advance, was not disturbed, and threw out a small bottle of dark green primary paralysis potion hidden in his hand.

The liquid splashed onto her body, causing Catwoman's limbs to go numb, she rolled her eyes and lay limp on the ground while bowing her head and retching.

Sure enough, no matter how beautiful women make such actions, their charm will be seriously affected.

"When this thing is turned on, it will burn down nearby electronic equipment, so the words you just tricked me into saying can't be heard by the Bat Family."

The young man said softly as he approached:

"I really mean no harm."

"Mason, this is wrong!"

Catwoman struggled and said:

"You kill a criminal, that means you become a criminal too! The total number of criminals hasn't changed! It doesn't make sense."

"Good point. But I have to remind you, Selena, I just killed 347 criminals."

Saying so, Mason walked up to the nearly fainted Catwoman, opened the suitcase to activate the invisible extension spell, and took her hand to hug Catwoman.

Let her feet enter the open box first, and then say to Catwoman who is still struggling:

"Don't go to the basement of that apartment! Don't go out, I keep Miss McGonagall, Yaya and Mao Mao there. You can move around on the second floor and the top floor, where there is still some water and food.

Take a break, Selena.

When I'm done here, we need to have a good talk. "

"You're going to put me in this box?"

Selena is very uncomfortable when she is spinning around, Master Catwoman gritted her teeth and said:

"Are you crazy? Or am I crazy?"

"Fortunately, we are all normal. I think your nine lives may have been wasted by you, so please keep my advice in mind, if you don't want to become a zombie beauty."

Mason gave a gentle smile.

The moment he let go of his hands, the catwoman in his arms screamed, and the whole person spun like falling into a cliff and fell into the suitcase under his feet with a whoosh.

Her drawn-out scream still echoed.

But the lid of the suitcase closed itself at the next moment, and it vibrated once more in place, making the place completely quiet.

"click"

The lock of the suitcase was closed, and Mason held it in his hand.

The young man tidied his clothes and turned off the jammer of the penguin umbrella, moved his shoulders, put on the invisibility cloak again, and went downstairs. He quickly walked around the cage where Chief Gordon and several policemen were hiding.

A group of zombies are still wandering here, and the penguin boss is among them.

Mason took out his gun and shot a few, then led them into the prison area on the other side and locked the fence gate, before appearing in front of Director Gordon and the police who were already paralyzed.

"I locked them up, luckily those guys are stupid enough."

Mason, who reappeared, wiped the stains on his face, opened the cage for the policemen, and said to them:

"Those monsters are gone, and I don't know where they will come back, but we have to take the risk to leave now! Gordon, can you still go?"

"I can."

Almost desperate, the director's face was full of joy at this time.

He glanced at the rifle that had run out of bullets in his hand, threw the poker aside, took the pistol thrown by Mason, and loaded it with a click.

The young man helped to lift the two wounded, and after confirming that they were not bitten by zombies, he led a group of people towards the exit that was blown up by the kite man.

Of course, there were zombies rushing out along the way trying to keep a few unlucky ghosts behind, but with the escort of Mason and Gordon's good marksmanship, the group finally arrived at the collapsed exit without any danger.

It has become a scene of hell.

Those members of the Penguin Gang who rushed in to rescue the boss later encountered wandering zombies head-on, and their fate was self-evident.

Judging from the horrible bloodstains and residues on the ground, the power that Oswald spent more than ten years building is destined to disappear after tonight.

"Oh my god, the exit was bombed and collapsed, we can't get out."

When a police sergeant saw the collapsed entrance wall in front of him, he crouched on the ground with his head in despair, and the others also showed bitterness.

What's worse is that there are zombies roaring behind them.

But Gordon didn't stop.

He was looking around for something useful to get his brothers out of the corner, and Mason was about to help when he heard the familiar roar of an engine outside.

Gordon, who is more familiar with this, yelled directly:

"It's the Batmobile outside! Get out of the way, Batman is coming!"

Everyone was refreshed when they heard the words.

Ten seconds later, with a loud noise that shook the ground, the exit of the main prison building that was blown up exploded as if hit by a tank high-explosive shell.

The cool and domineering Batmobile smashed through the obstructing stones and rushed in amidst the splash of gravel, which immediately made the group of policemen who survived the disaster feel very safe and cheered.

The Batmobile was also cruising in the night sky outside and drove a high-power light into the breach. Under the strong light, the cabin of the Batmobile slid open, and a familiar figure stood up from inside.

Mason glanced there.

Only a caped silhouette could be seen in the glare, but he was sure it wasn't Batman in Nightwing's place.

That's Bruce Wayne!

The real Batman has a unique temperament that can never be faked, as if no matter what the situation, as long as he appears, it means that no matter how terrible the crisis is, it is not worth mentioning.

The Dark Knight is back.

Just like countless times before.

He was there when the city needed him.

But Mason took a step back when the man approached. He could no longer face his favorite superhero calmly like before.

After releasing the zombie beasts and turning Black Gate Prison into hell, Mason knew that he would never be able to stand with Batman.

But he does not regret today's choice.

What happened today made him safe, and it was also beneficial and harmless to the entire Gotham.

I respect the man in front of me but don't have to follow him blindly. He can learn from Batman but doesn't need to be a poor imitator of Bruce Wayne.

He can rely on himself to make his own way in the world opened by this new life. He may not be praised, but just like the horror story that happened tonight, it is destined to be circulated in Gotham City for many years.

He doesn't have to bow the knee to anyone, and he doesn't have to flatter anyone.

Although there may be a risk of being discovered by Batman and captured by himself and sent to Arkham Asylum, Mason must admit that compared to becoming a well-behaved bat cub who has followed suit.

He does prefer the feeling of being in control now.

With such a firm thought, when Batman's eyes fell on him, Mason raised his head and showed a polite smile.

He wiped the blood on his face, stretched out his hand and said:

"You're late this time, Batman."
