Trajectory of Dawn in the World of American Comics

Chapter 630 96. Cheers to a happy family, family members

On the 26th hour after the fusion was completed, at the Osborne Tower, at 7:50 in the evening, the entire floor where the large conference hall was located was dead silent.

Tonight, this floor was under martial law for unknown reasons. Even the elevators were set so that they would not stop on this floor, and all the stairs were completely sealed off by mechanical locks.

It is basically equivalent to isolating this layer.

This kind of thing has basically never happened in the Osborne Tower in the past, so all the staff who are still staying in the tower in this new world are very curious.

But no one dared to turn on the surveillance on that floor to get a glimpse of the truth.

Because this blockade order was passed down directly from Sir Norman Osborn, as the former absolute leader of Osborne Tower, one pole of the New World and destined to conquer and rule the world and even expand his power to the stars in the future Hero-level characters, the authority of the old green goblin is at least an absolutely untouchable area in this tower.

But even if someone actually came to check it out and risked the wrath of the Goblin and the horrific end of being thrown into the Forbidden Forest to feed the dogs, they would definitely be disappointed.

There's no conspiracy, no nightly cult rituals, or even any gruesome and eerie horror elements.

The lights on this floor are bright, the corridors are covered with balloons and ribbons, and there are large banners and a large round table hanging in the large conference hall at the end.

Mason, who is wearing a chef's hat, is looking at the seven-layer cake, which is one person tall, with his hips on his hips. He is very satisfied with what he made with his own hands.

Although it was true that a dedicated water body was not assigned to be the chef at the beginning, the main body, Mason, felt that he might also be a guest chef.

Although he has been traveling back and forth between different worlds, fighting against different enemies, but when it comes to cooking, he has never given up.

"A little embellishment and you're done."

Mason opened the mold behind him, picked up the shaped chocolate doll and placed it on the top layer of the cake.

These dolls are also made by Mason himself. They are the characters of the clones, such as an engineer dressed as a bat boy, an alchemist dressed as a wizard, a blacksmith dressed as a miner, a first responder in a white coat, and so on.

Each one is delicately shaped to form a circle on top of the cake.

"grass!"

Just as Mason was finishing the cake, a shout sounded from outside the large conference hall decorated as a birthday party, and the earliest inscription master who came hid at the door and peeked out.

After confirming that he did not go the wrong way, he shouted:

"Whose birthday is this for, bastard subject! Don't tell me that today is Ciri's or Harry's birthday, hey, everyone is so busy, how can I have time to help your sister? What is that thing on the cake?" ?”

The guy yelled, stepped forward and took a look, then froze in place as if struck by lightning.

No matter how weird the avatar's personality was, he could always understand it when he saw the dolls listed on the cake. The inscriber in an Isu-style robe bit his lip.

He glanced back at the smiling subject Mason and said:

"This is for us? But today is not the day you created us. How can this be called a birthday? Although it is really touching, I must point out your mistake!"

"Today is indeed not the day you were born."

Mason took off the chef's hat, changed back to his windbreaker during the water body change, and put the hat on his head again, and then said to the inscriber:

"But you are the day when you have your own independent real life. I think today should be more important to you than being squeezed into a human form from a pool of water, right?

What about the rest?

Haven't come yet? "

He glanced down at his watch, and there were only two minutes left until eight o'clock, and then there was a noisy sound in the corridor, and the broken voice of the engineer was yelling from a long distance away:

"Asshole! Asshole! I thought it was a surprise, but I didn't expect to call us over to celebrate the birthday of a bastard who doesn't know the so-called! Damn, I don't know him, why should I spend my time to participate in that Asshole's birthday party!

Don't let me catch him!

Otherwise, I must kick his ass hard. "

"Oh, the face of the main body is still to be given, although I also think it is a waste of time."

Others are chiming in.

Apparently, this group of curly dogs felt very upset that the sudden meeting interrupted their work process. Among the crowd who came to meet, only jewelers and collectors followed at the end and did not participate in the speech to the main body.

The former is knowing the truth, while the latter is pure social terror.

"Come, help!"

Mason rolled up his sleeves and said something to the inscriber who was wiping tears beside him, and the two pushed up the huge cake and turned off the lights in the conference hall.

When other distracted people walked in cursing, Fox, the wild phoenix that had been prepared for a long time, suddenly appeared, and sprayed a mouthful of phoenix fire on the huge candle in the center of the cake.

As the fire lighted up and the light feathers of the phoenix fluttered down, Kevin, who had been rehearsing all afternoon, coughed a few times, turned around and made a dozen girls with hot bodies and cool clothes dance on both sides in the firelight.

Carrying a big gourd, it turned into Elvis Presley, grabbed the microphone and sang Happy Birthday.

Not to mention, although Kevin usually doesn't like to talk and always shows off his superb acting skills in the form of pantomime, its singing voice is really good.

All clones were stunned by this scene.

They stared dumbfounded at the main subject, Mason, pushing the big cake and standing in the light feathers sprinkled by Fox's wings in front of him. The inscriber next to him was already crying like a fool, and couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

They all inherited Mason's character.

Although they are different in some details, they are both temperamental people, the kind of personality who can't help but cry when watching movies and seeing sensational plots.

Even the loudest engineer fell silent when he saw the vivid puppets on the cake.

The inscriber next to him was waiting for his compatriots with red eyes, and he had quietly grabbed the table knife that Mason used to make the cake just now, holding it in his hand like holding a dagger backwards, glaring at the group of people who couldn't read Air jerk.

What are you still doing?

Cry!

Cry for me!

If you cry badly, I will kill you!

"Depend on!"

The engineer who originally said he would bring his family but finally came alone scolded him. He covered his face and said:

"You're going to die for being so provocative, you, everyone is a water man, bastard, if you shed too many tears, you will die."

"You can't stand it anymore?"

The main subject, Mason, looked at the group of silent avatars in front of him. He shook his head, surprised that this step is enough. After all, he is not a professional in this business, as long as he is interested.

He lifted the pocket at hand, lifted those "crystal hearts" with the water flow and sent them to each avatar, saying:

"Come on, put it into your body, this energy core made with the cutting method of the infinite gemstone can restrain your water flow and complete the separation with me on the physical and mental levels.

Unless you are so unlucky that you are shot to death and even the core is destroyed, you don't need to rely on me to survive in the world, but even if you die, you will be reborn by my side.

This is what I promise you.

From now on, except for the sharing of manufacturing skills, everyone is an independent individual.

Put it on quickly. "

Mason urged:

"After wearing it, I made a wish and blew out the candles and then ate the cake. After I finished, I had to go back to Gotham. Gordon had already exploded because I didn't go home for a long time.

I can't escape the family dinner at ten o'clock tonight. It is said that Dr. Leslie will also be there. Barbara keeps urging me, and I have to drop by to pick up Emma. "

"Fuck, is it so realistic? Can't you let the emotion stay a little longer?"

The blacksmith cursed and pushed the engineer who was wiping his tears. The latter pouted, took out an activation key similar to Fenrir's armor from his waist, and handed it to Mason.

He said:

"This is a gift from me and the blacksmith."

"Huh? Didn't you send it before?"

Mason patted the pistol on his waist in surprise, and said to the engineer:

"This gun is very good, and what's the matter with this gift? Why did you suddenly give me a gift? Wait! I didn't notice it just now, why are you all carrying gifts in your hands?

All for me? "

"Um."

The alchemist lit his pipe, took another look at the cake in front of him and the crystal heart core suspended in front of him, and sighed:

"Everyone wanted to give you a surprise without telling you, because the matter of the Mason of nothingness made us realize that the relationship between us and you is not a simple relationship between the subject and the clone.

There is a deeper bond connecting you and us.

Everyone decided to take advantage of the auspicious day of the fusion project to show their attitude by sending gifts to each other.

Mason

Our existence all comes from you, we are like a family, even outside of manufacturing, our relationship is by no means full of exploitation and uncertainty as others think.

What I'm trying to say is that in your story it's not just Batman who finds his family, you find your own family in the process.

Closer than clones, more real than that little bitch Madeleine, more open family than Emma.

I just didn't expect you to be so decisive. "

"yes!"

The enchanter pouted and said:

"At first, I thought you would at least do this after you defeated Mephisto and old A, but you didn't talk about martial arts and came up with a shameless sneak attack, which caught everyone off guard.

Now this gift is not easy to send out, it's like a deal.

But no.

We don't want to make the relationship between you and us a transaction, everyone's name is Mason, right? We are all born to take care of each other. "

"I don't think it's a big deal, as long as I feel like it, it's just a matter of doing things."

The tailor grinned and handed a set of folded clothes to Mason. He said:

"Just think of it as a gift between family members. Mason gave us freedom, and we give back with our hearts. May our strength always be with you.

This suit was made by me with the Enchanter and Scribe.

Based on the principle of the anti-phoenix cloak last time, you don't have to worry about unexpected energy attacks even if you are wearing a battle armor.

It can also heal your life and help you resist the invasion and pollution of nothingness on the spiritual level. Most importantly, it is made according to your favorite style, so wear it generously. "

"It's too dishonest to give away a piece of ragged clothes after working on it for a long time."

The engineer commented disdainfully:

"Look at the things that the blacksmith and I sent. We got the X metal! The power armor of the master of the universe is no longer a product that can only be used for three minutes.

As long as you want in the future, you can wear it even when you sleep and go to the toilet. I also made an overload slot for the power armor, which perfectly fits the heart of the star emperor.

That's a MAX-level invincible mode!

After the two are combined, there are very few things in this group of stars that can hurt you. "

"and this."

The blacksmith opened the box in his hand, and inside was a full-coverage battle helmet, very similar to the style of the Lord of the Universe's power armor, with ruby ​​nodes dotted on it.

"I used the remaining X metal to make this helmet for you. In this way, the last flaw of the Lord of the Universe's power armor has been completed. Except for being unable to fly and lacking the teleportation function, it is almost perfect.

But after wearing it, you don't need to fly anymore, the whole sky, earth and even the world will make way for you! "

"Uh, I don't have anything good to give you."

The jeweler shrugged, took out a replica version of the Infinity Gauntlet and handed it over, saying:

"Just use the more stable charged version of the Infinity Gauntlet as a gift. This time it will never break midway. It will be stable and effective until you complete at least one release of super energy.

It can be reused, and it is OK to charge it with the energy of swallowing stars or the heart of the star emperor. "

"I have nothing to give"

The lonely collector blushed, bowed his head and said:

"But the materials for the things they gave away were all given to me, so it can be regarded as a gift from me. If you don't mind it, I can give you my skinning knife to use as a throwing knife!"

He handed over the black skinning knife from his belt.

That thing is in the style of a bat knife, and the handle is wrapped with a dragon leather thread. It is simple and elegant, and it is really suitable for a throwing weapon.

Mason looked at the gifts in front of him, with a big smile on his face and then accepted them all. Finally, he turned to look at the first aid nurse. He was wearing a white coat and was already folding his hands to make a wish.

After noticing Mason's expectant eyes, the first responder spread his hands and said:

"I really have nothing to give you. How about I give you a free medical examination here? Or give you half a medical card or something?"

"Forget it, your field is really not suitable for giving gifts."

Mason waved his hand, looked at the clones in front of him, and said:

"But I accepted your gift, and you should accept mine. Let's start, guys, and complete this separation ceremony. Subordination between the subject and the clone is not the way family members should get along. I hope you can enjoy yours. Life, just like you wish me a happy ending.

bring it on.

Let's truly be family. "

Under his gaze, the avatars held the crystal core hanging in front of their bodies with both hands, and put it into their hearts in a rather terrifying way.

Just like a stone being put into the beating water, as the energy restraint of the crystal heart takes effect, the clone's body first melts into the water and then re-forms after a brief beating.

Mason also closed his eyes.

He can feel that he is losing control of the clones, but he can still feel the presence of the clones.

As for the changes at the spiritual level, they were not as completely isolated as he imagined. He could still feel the clone's emotions. Just as the alchemist said, there was a deeper power beneath the joy, anger, sorrow, and joy that connected them to each other.

Like a bond or a bond of affection.

Just like family members who cannot read each other's minds but still choose to trust unconditionally and repay the trust of others, that is a more reassuring feeling than one person's life and existence being completely controlled by another person.

Only a free personality can shape true emotions, after all, there will never be friendship between slaves and masters.

"so weird!"

The engineer covered his head and screamed:

"I can't feel you anymore, I don't know what you're thinking, hell! Now I can't hear you scolding me behind my back.

Uh, maybe that's a good thing? "

"I can't feel what everyone is thinking."

The alchemist touched his heart and felt the beating of the crystal core in the water. This unfamiliar touch made him a little at a loss, but the next moment, he raised his head and looked at the others and Mason.

He said:

"But even if I don't feel it, I can confirm that I can trust you without reservation."

"I was wrong to be concerned."

The jeweler took Mason's hand with his left hand and the alchemist's hand with his right, and said:

"We don't fall apart just because we have independent consciousness, those deeper things have already bound us together.

Mind-to-mind telepathy is only an aid, but we can be united without it, even more united than before, because the seeds of trust have already been planted.

It is bearing fruit today. "

"We are a family."

Mason shrugged, he showed a relaxed smile, and said:

"Believe it or not, I never worried that you would leave me."

"Well, who are those four assassin Masons prepared for?"

The hat suddenly asked a question in Mason's mind, which made the captain curl his lips. He picked up a knife and cut the cake amidst Kevin's singing, Fox's chirping, and the heckles of the clones, and said in his heart:

"Shut up, you bad hat who can't see the goodness of others! Look at the Mason family in front of you, how touched you are."
