Chapter 352 51 This Is Probably the Fate of Being a Self-Destructive Captain (Sad)
Chapter 352 51. This is probably the fate of being a self-destructing captain (sad)
Mason returned to the base of the Weapon X project again.
He held the purple power gem in his hand, followed by the staggering Logan. After the power fire was recycled into the unmanned raw stone, he began to heal quickly.
This immortal body is really enviable. Even the infinite gems can't kill him. The ultimate self-healing makes Logan Hautley a real "perfect creature".
The old wolf dragged the chain behind him, and at the end of it was tied the red skull who had his limbs cut off but was still roaring.
The latter realized that his secret evil plan had been discovered by Mason, which made the doomsday president who was on the verge of success almost crazy.
He cursed Mason and provoked Logan.
The swear words were so ugly that it really made people sigh at the quality of the Hydra commander. Being led by such a bastard, it's no wonder that the development of Hydra has been repeatedly frustrated.
"This Red Skull is a member of your organization. Will killing him have any impact on you?"
Logan was not provoked by the Red Skull's dirty words. He said in a hoarse voice:
"I don't mind letting this scum suffer for a while."
"No need. There are many factions in the Star Society, and the Red Skull himself is a poor abandoned person. He was placed in this world not to be a hero who controls one side, Logan.
Even the evil companions who did bad things with him at the beginning were wary of the Red Skull's madness and ambition, so they put him under house arrest in this wasteland in disguise.
He is just a pathetic bastard who was abandoned after being used."
At this point, Mason glanced at the silent Red Skull and sneered :
"Just like a used condom, it was ruthlessly thrown into the garbage dump waiting for its own decay."
"Are the young people of the Star Club so venomous now?"
The Doomsday President, whose plans were exposed, said hoarsely:
"But what can you do if you know it? As long as I die, the Crazy Attack will be born! Charles Xavier hopes to cover up this secret, but power will always find a way out!
This is an unsolvable dead end, Mason Cooper.
You can't stop the emergence of a stronger me."
"Then I can only say that your imagination is still a little lacking, maybe you have been in prison for too long and your brain is not enough."
Mason sneered at this argument.
He and Logan passed through the main control room of the Weapon X project. The old wolf looked silently at the biological capsules displayed below and the Hydra warriors who were being bred in them.
He clenched his fists, and the power of anger was surging. He wanted to destroy this evil nest immediately, but then a more tragic emotion was born in his mind.
They were fooled after all.
The Weapon X project and even all the preparations made by all the heroes seventeen years ago to fight against the doomsday were all unwarranted actions under the guidance of someone with ulterior motives.
The whole world has become a tool in the hands of conspirators.
Even the world itself has been used as a "world factory" to support the dark forces to become stronger.
Their resistance and hope, their persistence and suffering, were ultimately proven to be meaningless actions.
"That's why I chose to fight them, Logan."
Mason sensed the emotions that erupted in the silence of the old wolf, and he whispered:
"They not only grab the resources of the entire parallel world system, but they are also greedy and wantonly spread despair, squandering the suffering of others as nutrients for their own growth.
This has gone beyond the definition of evil.
They are a stubborn disease that must be destroyed! It is a cancer derived from this dark age. Everything I see in my ruined hometown will only make me more determined, and it will also make our companions more determined."
When he finished speaking, the area where Mason's awakening cabin was located was quietly opened, and an Atlantis-style bio-energy cabin was placed here.
A faint blue arc of light appeared in the darkness, and the energy was connected to the Weapon X project base to allow the bio-energy chamber to continue to operate.
Mason stepped forward and motioned Logan to come and take a look.
Old Wolf dropped the chain in his hand and stepped forward. He was shocked at the first sight.
The state of Captain Atom preserved in the energy chamber was much worse than when Mason found him before. Before, only his limbs were chaotically converted at the material and energy levels, but now even his entire body was in a "quantum state" of superposition of existence and disappearance.
Only a blue-skinned head remained intact.
"Adam, are you okay?"
Mason knocked on the lid of the energy chamber and asked softly:
"It's me, Mason."
"I can hear it, so you don't have to knock on this already fragile glass, lest it break the energy that I can't control and release, blowing you and me into ash."
A weak and painful voice sounded from the bio-energy chamber, with a hint of ridicule, which fully proved the good character of the unlucky guy who was made into a weapon.
Captain Atom opened his eyes in the energy chamber.
Because of the excessive intake of uncontrollable energy, his pupils turned pale, dotted with scattered light. He looked at Mason, then at Logan, and then said with a hint of relief and helplessness:
"So, the time has come, right?"
"Sorry."
Mason said softly:
"Dr. Otto, Norman and Professor Stein have tried their best, but we can't convert you from the quantum state back to a physical body.
The crude experiments performed on you by the Atlanteans completely destabilized you. "
"It's okay, no need to apologize, Mason."
Captain Atom Nathaniel Adam shook his head. As his body continued to transform into special forms, he whispered with a voice that reverberated with energy:
"When I was captured by the Atlanteans, I knew what they planned to do with me, and my only regret was that I was not strong enough to escape the shackles of fate.
I experienced nightmare after nightmare in my chaotic sleep, and without exception I was made into a weapon to destroy the world I loved.
That was the scariest and saddest ending I could imagine.
But when I woke up, I didn't see a broken world. Mason, I heard from Lex Luthor about the help of the K-Team to the world.
I also saw with my own eyes the glorious transfer gate displayed above the world, transferring the dying civilization to other worlds so that the people I spent my life protecting could continue.
It was you who helped me escape the nightmare, and it was you who helped me fulfill my responsibilities.
I was able to finish with a smile on my face and no longer resented others.
Not to mention that you gave me a chance to realize the value of my existence, although my ultimate value still has to be used to destroy a world, which is an ironic fate. "
He smiled, then looked at the silent old wolf, and said:
"Logan Houtley, I just learned about what happened here through the database connection to this base, and I am deeply saddened by what has happened to your world.
But Mason made the right decision.
For such a tragic fate, it is the most honorable thing to give this post-apocalyptic world relief. My final explosion will bury everything here.
Like funeral fireworks.
This is honor, this is despicable, this is despair, this is great.
I am honored to sacrifice my death to preserve the last bit of dignity for your troubled hometown. I also know your decision. You will stay here to accompany me until the end, right? "
"Um."
Old Wolf already knew Mason's plan from Captain Atom's description in front of him.
He was deeply gratified by this and had no resistance. He stood up straight, bowed respectfully to Nathaniel Adam in the biological energy cabin, and said:
"It is an honor to serve with you, Your Excellency."
"You are just wishful thinking!"
The "Human Stick" Red Skull, who also watched all this, felt the chill of a real crisis coming, and he screamed:
"An out-of-control super atomic man is indeed terrifying, but it is not enough to truly destroy a world. You will blow the world to pieces. However, Crazy Attack can also survive in the fragmented star core.
Ha, don't even think about killing me! "
"well said!"
Mason pushed the frame of his glasses up on the bridge of his nose.
He glanced at the shouting Red Skull who was still unwilling to accept his fate, waved the box with purple light in his hand, and said softly:
"Then you might as well take a guess, Lord Red Skull, what do I want to do by bringing this thing here?"
"no, you can not!"
Worthy of being a super villain who destroyed civilization, the Red Skull immediately realized what Mason was thinking, and he roared:
"That's an Infinity Stone! It's a wonder of the universe. Possessing it can make you a god in an instant. You can't destroy it just to make me disappear.
You can use this to control the wind and rain, but you want to surrender!
Don't do it!
Mason, you're being stupid! "
"god?"
Mason scoffed at this argument. While opening the access port of Captain Atom's energy capsule, he carefully took out the special tweezers and put the purple gem into it.
While saying:
"Come on, I still have three 'gods on earth' as teammates, and they all have to call me captain, and I have to worry about them. Whoever wants to be a 'god' can do it.
I don't care. "
"Buzz"
The moment the Power Stone was placed into the energy chamber, purple sparks reverberated and burst out in Captain Atom's quantum state body, and were absorbed by Adam with all his strength.
In just a few seconds, his originally blue energy sparks were completely transformed into flame-like purple.
"It's really powerful."
Captain Atom said hoarsely:
"Give me twenty minutes, Mason. With only twenty minutes of absorption, I can guarantee that I will crush this world into the finest stardust when it explodes.
I promise, nothing will remain!
Whether it is the factory of the evil Hydra men, or the mutant gene bank that is properly stored in a secret place, or a super villain with ulterior motives who wants to become an 'evil god'.
Well, this is going to be the most glorious finale I could ever imagine, so thank you for the opportunity. "
"Thanks, Adam."
Mason stood by the energy tank and said to this poor man who volunteered to die:
"I will bring your story back to Osborne Tower, and I guarantee that your fellow citizens will know of your great service, and they will all sing of your name."
"No, let them forget me. A loser who almost destroyed the world doesn't deserve to be remembered."
Captain Atom whispered:
"But if there must be an exchange to make you feel at ease with my sacrifice, then I hope you can promise me one thing, Mason Cooper."
"you say."
Mason listened with a solemn expression, and then heard the atomic man in the biological cabin whisper:
“Try your best to get to the end.
If you think there is hope in all of this, if you firmly believe that the dark ages will eventually pass and the future will be filled with light and hope, then go to the end.
See that new era for me.
I also played a part in its arrival, right? "
"I promise!"
Mason took a deep breath.
He bowed and saluted the biological cabin that emitted purple light, and said:
"Even if death is inevitable, I will fall on the way forward."
"Okay, it's time for you to leave!"
The old wolf waited until the farewell between Mason and Captain Atom was over. He held a cigarette in his mouth and pulled the chains of the Red Skull to tie the miserable man to the purple energy capsule, ensuring that this bastard would feel the annihilation firsthand. Real touch.
While saying to Mason:
"Twenty minutes is enough for you to leave, Mason, let's go! Leave here with the last blessings this world gives you, and walk with your head held high!
Do the big things you should do with an open mind, and I will ensure that this plan goes to the last step. "
"Logan, you."
Mason looked at the old wolf with a determined expression.
He wanted to persuade again, but Logan turned his back to him and took out the body bags that he had brought from the ruins of Xavier College one by one, and placed them nearby.
It's like placing tombstones.
He knew that this was the end that the old wolf had arranged for himself. He chose this place to be his grave, which in itself was an answer to Mason's plea to stay.
Facing such a stubborn bastard, any words Mason said seemed so unnecessary.
He sighed and said:
"Any message for Vanessa and the two kids?"
"I said everything I needed to say on the way."
Logan paused and said without looking back:
“Just if you can, teach my son well for me, don’t let him follow my old path, let alone make the same irreparable mistake as me.
Do your best to protect your loved ones and friends, and never wave your claws in the wrong direction.
So be it. "
"Um."
Mason threw out a pack of Silka cigarettes as a farewell gift, and then walked into the darkness alone. A few minutes later, the door to the base was completely locked, making the place quiet again.
Just like a sealed tomb, full of coldness and fear.
"Logan, you know, you could actually leave with Mason."
Captain Atom waited until Logan had placed all the body bags next to him, then he said:
"You still have a chance to pay off the terrible guilt you feel in a better way than to stay here and die."
"I'm tired, Adam."
Logan stood up, took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth. He walked to the railing and looked at the biological cabins of the Hydra soldiers displayed in front of him, and responded coolly:
"No matter how harsh the fate is, it cannot require a hundreds-year-old man to embark on a difficult journey. You see, my brothers and sisters are all here. This is my destination and my home."
He blew out a smoke ring and looked at the body bag behind him, as if he saw all the former X-Men standing beside him, and the one at the front was himself seventeen years ago.
He grinned and moved.
It was the first time I faced the torture of the past so calmly.
In the thick rising smoke, he said:
"Fuck the atonement and the future. I'm tired. I can't fight anymore. Leave the future to Mason and the others."
"Yes, although they always secretly call me 'Captain Explosion'."
Adam in the energy cabin complained:
"But I know that they are all good people. Entrusting the future to such people always makes people feel more at ease. Alas, uncontrollable self-destruction, one explosion after another, can always cause all kinds of troubles. .
This is probably my fate.
But who could have imagined that the journey to death would be so exciting, and that there would be two people accompanying me on the last journey.
Tsk, Red Skull, howl louder!
Haven't you eaten?
Everyone is dying, can you please try harder?
Logan, give him a quick kick and give him a knife. I want to hear him wail. "
"okay."
