Chapter 122 5 Investigating the Bat Family in Gotham? Have You Consulted the Master? [410]

Chapter 122 5. Investigating the Bat Family in Gotham? Have you asked the master for permission? 【410】

"Dudududu"

Just as Mason and Zha Kang were busy around the gate of the world, the young man's cell phone suddenly rang. He frowned and took off the enchanted gloves on his hands, picked up the phone and took a look.

It was a call from Catwoman, which made Mason raise his eyebrows again. He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window to connect the communication, and then heard Selina, who was spending the evening in Wayne Manor, saying to him in a low voice:

"Mason, who did you offend again? Bruce welcomed a mysterious guest. I just heard them discussing issues about you. The guy named 'Brad' was asking about your life experience and current situation."

After hearing Catwoman's first-hand news, Mason immediately had a headache.

He said:

"This matter is very complicated. It has something to do with my bad friend in the magic circle. I can't explain it in a sentence or two. We can talk about it when you come over to 'drink'."

The Bingshan Bar will be open for trial operation tomorrow. As a distinguished guest, you must ‘attend’ it. "

Catwoman is so smart.

After hearing Mason use the code word, she immediately reacted. She let out a warm female laugh and said:

"Of course, of course, I am a small shareholder of that bar. I will definitely go and have a good time in my own property. Leave me a box tomorrow night.

I will bring some friends over to support me.

That's it. "

After saying that, Selina hung up the communication and glanced at the wall of the next room.

Mason had just been reminding her that Mr. "Brad" could hear their phone conversation, and well, another character that sounded troublesome.

"The Demon Knight went to Wayne Manor!"

Mason put down his phone and turned back to Zha Kang and said:

"That guy is targeting me. He's such a troublesome character. Can you think of a way to get him?"

"Don't bother."

Zha Kang, who was holding the Midas Touch to add additional inscriptions to the World Gate and prepare to enchant it, said without raising his head:

"The body of Jason Blood is a superior demon. You may have no idea about this. Let me use a simpler description.

If the big battle launched by the Assassin League that night was aimed at Brad, then he could kill them all in thirty minutes alone.

The corpses were burned and even the souls were devoured.

Once that guy enters the demon form, Batboy is probably the only one in the city who has the ability to contain him. If you want to defeat him, you have to summon helpers. "

"I've heard some rumors about him."

Mason squinted his eyes and said:

"But you also said that Jason Blood in human form has a conflict with the demon inside him. Maybe we can take advantage of this?"

"It's a good idea, but all the people who thought so in the past few hundred years are dead."

Constantine raised his head and looked at Mason, and said quietly:

"Don't you think about it, can a guy who has a high-level demon sealed in his body be an ordinary person? Even if Brad doesn't summon the demon, if he is given a half-sword, he can still easily wield unparalleled power in Gotham City. .

He is a Holy Grail Knight who has lived since the time of King Arthur!

The demon in his body was sealed by the Archmage Merlin himself. His first lover was Morgan le Fey, and his current lover is Nimue, Lady of Xanadu.

Don't underestimate him, Mason.

He's really dangerous.

You can think of him as a magical version of Superman. He may not be a match for the freaks in the Justice League, but he can kill us little characters with one hand. "

"Then there's no way."

Mason spread his hands and said helplessly:

"You can only use the last resort. If you can't beat us, join! Just like I did with you, let's find a way to bring Jason Blood into the K team.

Let him see with his own eyes how we, the "underground workers" who are in darkness and have a bright mind, fight against the Council of Stars. "

"Well."

Mason's suggestion made Zha Kang freeze on the spot. He wanted to refute but felt unable to complain.

The black magician tilted his head and thought about it. He felt that although Mason's proposal was to order takeout from Panda, which was really damaging, it was indeed a no-brainer.

And this proposal is quite in line with Zha Kang's character.

This guy is the kind of bad guy who wakes up from the cold at night and has to lift the quilt for his roommate. He himself has been tricked by Mason. How can he not invite others to enjoy such a sour feeling?

"This is a good idea!"

Ten seconds later, Zha Kang smiled evilly, waved his thumb, and said:

"Leave it to me, I'll plan it, and I'll make sure it's foolproof! Let me tell you, Brad is a good fighter! Once he goes completely crazy and takes the initiative to use demonic power, he can even fight Superman with all his strength for ten minutes without losing. defeat.

And because he is possessed by a demon, he is immortal.

He is simply the perfect candidate for a cannon fodder warrior. "

"I absolutely trust your ability when it comes to deceiving people, but let's fix this door first."

Mason put on the enchanting gloves again and squatted down to start processing the inscriptions and enchantments on the door. Branch Hat fell into a deep sleep, but before falling asleep, he told Mason all the key points, and Mason taught it to Zha Kang.

This advanced stealth enchantment and energy balance inscription requires magic to be injected into each drawing, and Mason can only complete some simple rune outlines.

The complicated ones still have to be left to Zha Kang.

Of course, it is always boring and dull when two men work together, and they always need some topics to adjust the mood, so Zha Kang quickly talked about his "happy life" in the past two days.

"Let me tell you, when I gave 'Polly' to Zack, her eyes were wide open!"

Zha Kang blew a smoke ring proudly and said in a long voice:

"She kept asking me where I found a living little unicorn. I made up a story, but the answer is not important.

Especially when I took the initiative to bridge the emotional problems.

She saw my sincerity, there is no doubt about it.

We had a candlelight dinner together, fed the little unicorn together, and then took a bath together, together."

"Stop! The rest doesn't need to be described in such detail."

Mason interrupted expressionlessly:

"I'm really not interested in the details of your overly rich and decadent private life, John. Instead of talking about these, it's better to talk about some details of the magic meeting you attended in the Mysterious House.

For example, are you sure this is just a unilateral action of the magicians and there is no linkage with the Justice League?

I always feel that something is wrong with this matter."

The young man stroked his chin, thought for a few seconds to organize his words, and said to the scumbag who was reminiscing about the "good life" of the past day and night. Zha Kang said:

"Do you remember that Batman left Gotham for a while before?

I asked indirectly when I visited Mr. Lucius a few days ago. Since more than a year ago, Batman has disappeared for a few days from time to time.

I think the Justice League must be pushing something in secret.

Even the actions of the Assassin's League around the world not long ago, although it was because you notified them urgently, don't you feel that the Justice League's actions are a bit too fast?

In less than 30 minutes, several actions of the Assassin's League around the world were handled at the same time!

This is obviously a similar plan in advance!

So, John, what do you think?"

"Ah? What are you talking about?"

Zha Kang blinked and said:

"Sorry, I didn't listen to you just now, some boring things about the Justice League. I was recalling the rare enthusiasm of Zack.

Maybe I should find more surprise gifts like little unicorns in my journey through the world?"

"Alas, you are hopeless! Brother."

Mason sighed and stopped talking about it.

Zha Kang obviously has his own answer to this question, but he is playing dumb and unwilling to say it. Mason does not ask any more questions, but leads the topic to another aspect.

He looked at the colorful world gate painted with alchemical solution and enchanted talismans in front of him, and said:

"The trade fair will be held in two days. I plan to take you, Selina, Ertong and Barbara with me.

Charles and Jack need to stay in Gotham. We will be gone for three days, so someone must cover us here, especially when Jason Blood has already set his sights on me.

He also met with Bruce, and Batman's surveillance of me may be restarted.

What a trouble!"

"It's okay. We have the disguise magic medicine of Polyjuice Potion."

Zha Kang snapped his fingers and said:

"Let Spiro pretend to be you temporarily. That guy is very good at this kind of thing. Don't worry about being exposed. But are you ready for the trade fair? ? "

"I have prepared some."

Mason patted the suitcase beside him and said:

"Potions, engineering items, and some rare raw materials and magic items are the common trading items of Team K. We have to share the exchanged items equally.

But if you prepare good things to exchange, then I can't control it. "

"Cool, this is the answer I want to hear."

Constantine grinned evilly and said:

"It just so happened that when I left the mysterious house, I brought back some good things from Xiao Zha's collection. I can't work for nothing all day and night, right?"

"You... you took advantage of your girlfriend to fall asleep and stole her money?"

Mason looked at the proud black magician in front of him in shock.

He wanted to come up with an appropriate word to describe the jerk in front of him, but after thinking about it, he could only sigh helplessly and said:

"You are really a complete scumbag, John. I am really curious now why a good girl like Zappa would be entangled with you?

It's really a flower stuck in cow dung."

"Tsk, you don't understand. If Zappa cared about those things, she would have put them away before she invited me into her bedroom."

Constantine blew smoke rings and said confidently:

"And this is how we get along. You don't understand! You are jealous just because I am a toad who eats swan meat."

——

"This is what happened.

Although Constantine used a perfect explanation for this time and space disturbance, based on my understanding of him, I am basically sure that there are still inside stories about this matter.

Some inside stories that he and his friends don't want me to know."

In the living room of Wayne Manor, Jason Blood, sitting on the sofa with his back straight like an ancient knight, held a cup of coffee in one hand.

Said to Bruce Wayne who was sitting opposite him:

"I need your help, Batman."

"Please call me Bruce here."

Mr. Batman sat on the chair opposite the Demon Knight in the relaxed posture that a rich man should have. He was over thirty-eight years old but still handsome and very calm, and he looked at the visitor in front of him.

After hesitating for a few seconds, the master replied:

"You mean, you need me to give you all the information I have about Constantine?"

"No!"

The Demon Knight stared at Bruce and said:

"I'm referring to 'Mason Cooper', the information you gathered about John Constantine is what he wanted you to know, the fabricated information is of no use to me.

But Mason Cooper is on my mind.

His experience of being reborn last month is very consistent with the growth process of the hosts I have seen in the long past that are related to evil spirits.

I suspect there is some mysterious power behind that young man.

Coupled with his active performance in the 'outsider' incident, I have reason to investigate him. But Gotham is your place, Bruce Wayne.

I need your help. "

"You mean, permission?"

The master raised his eyebrows and said:

"You didn't come here to ask for help at all, Brad. You just came to ask me for permission to move. You have already identified Mason as a suspect."

The Demon Knight remained silent.

But he didn't refute Batman's statement, just looked at him and waited for an answer.

The master shook his head and said:

"He's a member of the Bat-Family! Brad, I have an obligation to protect his private information and the little secrets he's been hiding. And from what I've heard, your 'investigative methods' have always been, well, wild.

I can't allow you to hurt him. "

"Then you come!"

The Demon Knight drank the coffee in his hand, stood up, straightened his clothes, took out a unique hourglass and put it on the table, and said to the gentleman in front of him:

"I just need an answer, and if you can give me the answer I don't have to bother that young man. But if you don't get the answer either, then I have to figure it out myself.

This may be a bit crude.

But I believe that as one of the founders of the Justice League, you can fully understand the harsh situation we are facing now. After all, there's only one month left, Bruce Wayne.

This number is what you told us.

Please understand that.

But I'm not the only one in the world waiting for this answer. "

After saying that, Jason Blood nodded to the master coldly, then turned and left.

Alfred sent the guests to the door instead of Bruce Wayne. When Alfred came back, he saw Bruce sitting on the sofa with two photos in his hands.

"master"

Ah Fu whispered:

"Maybe you should talk to Mason, I mean be honest, he's by no means a bad guy."

"But he doesn't want to talk to me, Afu."

Batman sighed, put the photo in his hand on the table and whispered:

"I have to give Mason some credit after what they've been through together. I just don't want to see a repeat of what happened with Jason and Barbara.

Am I really right to do this? "

Bruce raised his head and looked at Afu and said:

“Knowing that he is a breakthrough, but betting the survival of us and even the world on the choice he will make, this trust may be a little too heavy.

No matter to him.

It's still the same for me. "

Afu lowered his head and looked at the photos in Bruce's hand. One showed Mason riding a flying motorcycle through Crime Alley at night, and the other showed Selina wearing a bathrobe and putting on makeup.

Both photos have been processed in a special way, and the red traces on them circle a common point. Both people have a tattoo that is covered by magic on their left arm.

Tattoos that look like ghost claws.

This made Ah Fu's expression become heavy, and he whispered:

"Have you contacted Miss Zatanna for any news?"

"Um."

Bruce closed his eyes and nodded and said:

"She confirmed personally that John Constantine was part of their small team."

"But wasn't it Mr. Constantine who was the first to inform the Justice League about the Outsiders and the League of Assassins' plot?"

Ah Fu frowned and said:

"If they are a team, it means that Ms. Selina and Mason are most likely involved in this warning, and it also proves that they have no ill intentions towards us.

As a former agent, I can even think that they may be 'protecting' us in a dangerous way. "

"That's why I decided to wait, Afu."

Batman stood up and said:

"Before Mason or Selina come clean to me, it needs to be kept secret and no one else knows, otherwise it will cause trouble for them and eliminate one of the 'hidden options' we have in this crisis."

"Um."

The old housekeeper nodded and said worriedly:

"But there's pressure from the rest of the Justice League and the wizarding community."

The master looked out the window and said with deep eyes:

“If they have questions, ask me!”
