Chapter 85 37. Freeze! Don't leave! --【2050】
"Bang"
The small bottle that flew over in the dark night was blown up above the heads of a group of black-clad assassins.
The shattered bottle body caused the scattered liquid to splash in all directions. It did not petrify the body when it was poured on, but the strong paralysis made these black-clad assassins tremble and fall to the ground.
The terrible paralysis was instantaneous.
It was like the nerves of the body were cut off and could not be controlled.
But it was also weakening rapidly. They would be able to return to normal in ten seconds at most. The problem was that the attackers in the dark night would probably not give them ten seconds.
Mason, who was wearing an invisibility cloak, did not choose to use his gun. The glimmer on his collar pin proved that there were still many people in the nearby woods.
In this case, shooting would expose himself.
So he chose to resolve the battle in a more brutal way.
Hagrid's giant hunting knife was raised, and the throats of the low-level assassins on the ground were cut one by one. After receiving the proficiency reward of five close combat executions, Mason took down the bat dart stuck in the tree and put it back on his waist.
Throwing skills are obviously also a kind of shooting system.
Therefore, Mason's Lv3 shooting skills also increase his throwing bat darts. Of course, the accuracy and lethality are not as exaggerated as bullets.
But it is perfect for this kind of night assassination with invisibility cloak and potion.
He raised his hand and shot the hook gun to pull himself into the branch silently, and drank a sip of cat's eye potion to get [night vision] and look around. The free aiming frame of combat assistance quickly locked the next team of targets for him.
Those people were wearing professional night vision goggles, but the breath cover of the invisibility cloak was a magical effect.
In addition to physical collisions, the night vision goggles could not capture Mason's ghostly movements.
This is the reason why he was here alone to stop the ambush. Of course, another important reason was to clear his relationship with the "three-headed dog". With the efficiency of Catwoman and Kite Man, the zombie beasts should have killed a lot of people near the Bat Cave. Mason didn't want Batman to suspect him again.
"Puff"
A paralysis dart popped out from the launcher on the left arm of Mason's battle suit, stabbing the approaching black-clad assassin to the ground and being killed by Mason who jumped down. When he turned around, another petrification dart was shot out, petrifying the guy who drew the samurai sword behind him.
The next second, the sharp hunting knife was swung and the gravel was scattered all over the ground.
"Meat! Fresh meat!"
A shrill scream soon sounded in the woods near Wayne Manor, and this familiar voice made the young man frown.
Is this Killer Croc?
He had met this guy when he was rescuing Nightwing in Arkham Asylum. He was almost bitten to death by the three-headed dog Shaggy. Although he survived by regenerating his flesh and blood and healing himself, this guy should have turned into a zombie now, right?
The Assassin's League really dared to let him out to move freely?
Sure enough, when Mason arrived nearby in secret, he saw a fierce and bloody massacre at a glance. Killer Croc was lying on his back with his legs spread out.
He was lying on a corpse and feasting on it.
As Mason expected, Killer Croc's originally green scales had begun to turn gray and withered, and his huge body was also "shrinking".
This was an obvious sign of zombie transformation.
It is estimated that in another hour, this pathetic super villain will become a difficult-to-deal-with "super zombie".
The forest was full of bloody smells, and the other black-clothed killers were probably cleaned up by Killer Croc, who was almost crazy due to the stimulation of blood and flesh.
This efficient killing efficiency made Mason reluctant to start.
If we only look at the result, this guy is definitely one of us.
He lay on the tree and set up the explosive shotgun, aiming at the super villain in front of him. When Killer Croc raised his head, Mason decisively pulled the trigger.
With a muffled bang, the sniper bullet went through the mutant madman's ear and blew half of his skull, causing his twisted body to shake and fall to the ground.
But there was no kill prompt, which made Mason's face change slightly.
Killer Croc already had super self-healing and super endurance, and the influence of half-zombie made him take a bullet and not die.
Mason narrowed his eyes and aimed again.
But at the moment of firing, the collar pin on his collar shone brightly, causing Mason to decisively give up shooting and tumble down on the tree branch.
At the same time, the blue beam that attacked the Batmobile before attacked again, and the moment it hit the branch, it froze it completely and made it crystal clear.
Although Mason reacted very quickly, he was still affected by the cold beam. When he fell to the ground, his entire left arm was frozen in the ice, and the cold made the invisibility cloak ineffective.
But the magic fire was also ignited at the same time to melt the ice.
Mason looked up and saw a guy wearing a unique black armor, a device similar to an astronaut helmet on his head, and red test goggles walking out of the darkness.
He was carrying a very technological backpack.
There was a complex controller and hoses connected to the helmet and backpack on the chest of the armor. The exposed arm showed a strange ice blue color, and in his hand was a sci-fi gun that was still emitting cold air.
Wherever he went, the low temperature lingered, and the wild grass on the ground was covered with a layer of frost.
This dress and appearance made Mason recognize the identity of this guy at a glance. Mr. Freeze, a first-line villain in Gotham City, is also one of the VIP customers of Arkham Asylum.
His pomp in the lunatic asylum was grand.
There is even an independent generator set dedicated to providing energy for his cell, which is maintained at minus ten degrees Celsius all year round.
"Don't move! Young man."
Mr. Freeze is not as rude as Killer Croc, nor is he as arrogant and crazy as other villains. This villain who was once the world's top thermologist speaks in a leisurely and polite manner.
Revealing an aura of a scholar that has not faded away.
The only thing that makes people uncomfortable is that his voice exudes the meaning of freezing everything like his laser freezing gun, so it seems very cold.
It's like disregarding all life.
"Your arm is instantly frozen to ultra-low temperatures. It won't cause you pain, it will only cause your nerves to die quickly. Now any violent movement will cause your arm and the steel at low temperature to break brittlely."
Mr. Freeze stood five steps away from Mason. He pointed the muzzle of the freeze gun at Mason and said:
"I was forced to come to help the Assassin League, but I have no interest in killing. I just want to ask you a question. If you can give me the answer, then I can help you unfreeze and send you away from here."
"Ask, Victor."
Mason lay on the ground pretending he was helpless.
However, under the quiet cover of the magic fire, his left arm has regained consciousness. With just a flick, the ice on the surface of the skin will break.
But he was very interested in the conditions proposed by Mr. Freeze. He coughed and said weakly:
"You have an absolute advantage, so I must tell you everything."
"Who cured Batman?"
Mr. Freeze did not show joy or other expressions. He still asked indifferently:
“The League of Assassins made many promises to me to win me over to their service, and they told me that they had used an incurable poison to destroy Batman.
But I just heard over their comms that Batman reappeared.
Who removed that toxin?
Tell me, young man, this is important to me! "
"Let me guess."
Mason stared at Mr. Freeze and said:
"Are you doing this for your wife? Do you think the man who cured Batman might be able to help you cure your wife's terminal illness? You just said that the League of Assassins promised a lot of conditions to win over you.
One of them should be about helping your wife, right?
I guess they told you they could cure your poor wife of illness and even bring her back from the dead? "
"Yes, they did say that."
Mr. Freeze said in a cold and gentle tone:
"Also, I want to correct you. Nora is not dead! There is no such thing as resurrection from the dead. Use your words carefully, young man.
This is a 'grammatical error' that might piss me off. "
"But you don't trust them."
Mason narrowed his eyes:
"Otherwise, there wouldn't be this conversation. It seems that you believe in the Bat Family more than those big villains who came to Gotham to cause trouble? Isn't your style a bit inconsistent with your identity as a villain? "
Mason's question made Mr. Freeze frown.
He raised the freezing gun and pulled the trigger, and the blue cryogenic ray spurted out again, but instead of aiming at Mason, it froze Killer Crocodile, who was making a low groan and trying to get up from the ground, frozen in place.
Mr. Freeze was much more ruthless this time.
The gloomy ray continued to spray for five seconds, freezing Killer Crocodile in a large mass of cold ice.
After doing all this, he put down the freezing gun with its nozzle frozen and looked at Mason again and said:
"You are right. I do believe in Batman more than the League of Assassins. Although I owe everything to him for becoming the person I am today, this is a personal grudge between me and him.
My wife is innocent.
So, young man, tell me who cured Batman. "
"We used the pure blood of unicorns to dispel a mixture of poisons mixed with the water of the Pool of Salar, and it only took three days to restore Batman to health and become stronger than before.
This is not scientific medical treatment as you may think, but is derived from ancient alchemical wisdom. "
Mason's left hand moved slightly, and his fingers grasped the batarang on his belt.
He said slowly:
"You don't seem to believe this, but it doesn't matter. If you give me a little time, I can show you all this, including how I used potions to kill other pursuers in the forest.
If you go there and take a look, you will find that there are still a few stone statues left there. I saved Batman, Victor, and as you can see, I am an alchemist.
As for whether unicorn blood can cure your wife's terminal illness, I can't say for sure. It's not poisoning or a curse. Maybe she needs more advanced medicine.
I mean, I have to at least meet her first and see how she's doing. "
"Oh my God, I wasted a precious opportunity and precious minutes of my life."
Mr. Freeze shook his head with disappointment and said:
"The answer I sought was the word 'alchemy.' Oh my god. Sorry, kid, but now I have to serve the League of Assassins.
Don't worry, this won't hurt. "
And the moment he raised the freezing gun, Mason also threw the batarang in his hand.
The distance between the two was only five or six meters, and their attack movements were almost synchronized. However, the flames burning on Mason's fingers and the red-hot and even melting batarang made Mr. Freeze stunned for a few tenths of a second.
"Snap"
The hot dart accurately pierced the controller on Mr. Freeze's armor, and its high temperature instantly destroyed the passage and made his refrigeration armor fail quickly.
Mason, who put on the invisibility cloak again, jumped a few times in the wild dance of the freezing ray, and threw a bottle of petrifying potion at the target, which hit Victor Freeze's astronaut helmet.
The instant the potion bottle, which was designed to be fragile, broke into pieces, the sticky liquid flowed down the helmet. Although it was quickly condensed by Mr. Freeze's low temperature, it was undoubtedly effective.
The super villain who believed in science looked at his body that was quickly petrified with a blank look.
He could have frozen Mason who reappeared at this moment while his arm was still able to move, but he didn't do so. Instead, he dropped the freezing ray gun.
Before his head and mouth were petrified, he shouted:
"I believe it! Help her, I'm willing to pay."
"I'm freezing to death!"
Seeing Mr. Freeze being petrified, Mason jumped quickly on the spot, slapping off the ice chips on his body and mobilizing the magic fire to cover his whole body little by little to warm himself up.
He walked towards the stone sculpture of Mr. Freeze, picked up the freezing ray gun, patted the stone statue in front of him, and said:
"You are just petrified, but you can still hear and see, so I will tell you, first go back to Arkham Asylum and spend the rest of your sentence.
When we meet next time, I will give you an answer whether I want to help you and your wife.
I know your story, Victor, there is no doubt that you are a "cold-blooded" villain, but your wife is indeed innocent.
In addition, I won't be polite with your weapons.
I am now This kind of targeted special attack stuff is needed. "
Mason put the gun in his hand, which was emitting cold air and was made of silver-gray special metal and a "energy tank" shining with a faint blue light, in front of him, and the character card immediately gave a label:

Weapon blueprints and quick-freeze formula analysis [Countdown 232 hours]
"It's worth it even if the Batcave is destroyed."
Mason put K, the pistol, on his back, stood up with the freezing gun and took aim, then took off Mr. Freeze's armed backpack and found that this thing was also a precision engineering item.
He shrugged, turned his head and said to the stone sculpture behind him with a pleading expression on his face:
"The petrification will be lifted in six hours. You'd better pray that you have been sent back to Arkham by then, otherwise you will not survive at room temperature.
Well, this reminds me."
Mason raised the freezing gun and aimed at Mr. Freeze and pulled the trigger. The blue ray sprayed out for a full ten seconds to freeze him completely.
He went forward to take some body tissue samples of the frozen half-zombie Killer Croc and then returned to the Batmobile.
Mason was a little overwhelmed by driving such an expensive car for the first time.
But he quickly adapted. With the sound of the engine, the black tank, which had broken three trees in a row but was still unscathed and only had scratches on its outer armor, got back on the road.
Wayne Manor was right in front of him, and the sound of gunfire from there should have been a good show.
"I got rid of two super villains by myself, so I should not be considered an unknown person in Gotham City."
Mason grabbed the steering wheel of the Batmobile, which was covered with buttons like a professional racing car, and violently broke open the iron gate of Wayne Manor and rushed into the forest behind this luxurious place.
That was the direction of the Batcave.
While he activated the fire support mode of the Batmobile and let the micro rocket nests pop out on both sides of the vehicle body, he locked the target and thought:
"I don't know what price they will give me if I go to the Minions Union to register now? Well, that big guy is so fierce! The eldest and the third young masters were beaten together.
Is that Bane?
Damian is here too?
What a surprise!"
"Click"
The launch button was pressed.
Under Mason's control, more than 24 micro rockets were bombarded in a way that covered the group of people fighting in front of the Batcave and all of them were engulfed in the explosion.
In the flames in front of the sky, the Batmobile swung and braked gracefully, tearing through the blazing flames and stopped in place.
The cabin was split open, and Mason jumped out with a freezing gun.
He looked at the dark Batcave in front of him, as if he saw a rare treasure.
Perhaps the attack of the Assassin's League was not all bad. Under normal circumstances, how could there be such a chance to visit the master's "toy library" openly?
If we don't get some good things, it would be a shame for Team K to participate in the war.
