The Track of Dawn In the World of Marvel Chapter 440

  Chapter 440 55. Look at others, look at you, why is there such a big gap between mutants?

  Mason analyzed the situation.

  He felt that his most important task right now was to save Superman's son from the Swamp Monster's Green Cult of All Things. If something happened to Xiao Qiao, it would be difficult to ensure that Da Chao would not go crazy and go to extremes after waking up.

   In fact, after it was confirmed that Black Adam and the stars would collude, Mason had to start from the worst case to consider the problem.

  Perhaps this kidnapping was a sinister conspiracy with two ends from the beginning.

   It would be best if the Justice League could be lured to kill them in the temple of the Egyptian gods, but if the direct ambush fails, then killing Xiao Qiao to stimulate the super may not be a backup plan.

   Obviously, in the eyes of the bad guys, winning a victory by any means is much more important than protecting children's rights.

   But this plan is obviously not from Black Adam or the Swamp Thing. The man behind the kidnapping of Da Chao has not yet fully surfaced, but he is obviously a guy with a lot of brains.

   is a rival!

   Mason, who finished the phone call with the old man, walked into the gloomy swamp created by the swamp monster while guessing the guy's identity.

It is obvious that there is some kind of mysterious power that obscures the communication, making it impossible for him to contact Harley, Xiao Zha and Ivy. There is also a layer of strange green mist lingering around the swamp, so he can only use the naked eye and perception to judge the existence nearby. s things.

   But this trick doesn't work on Mason.

  Because he has a "special weapon" for this muddy environment.

   "croak"

  With a strange sound of mud splashing, Kevin, the playwright ooze monster, jumped in front of Mason, turned around and changed into Harley, begging Mason to hug him.

   In the end, he was driven away by the captain with a look of disgust.

   "Where are they?"

  Mason asked, and Kevin, who was covering his face "sad", stretched out his hands and pointed in two different directions, representing the two directions of Poison Ivy and Xiao Zha in the swamp.

   As an ooze monster, it simply likes the swamp environment so much.

   Just like Mason can control the water source almost infinitely when he is close to the ocean, in the swamp full of mud, the power and ability of Divine Kevin is also greatly strengthened.

  It has divided itself into several sections and is active in different swamp areas, serving as Mason's "living radar" to monitor what happened in the entire swamp for him.

   But this guy has never learned to speak or it is more willing to express itself with body language. In short, this will make Kevin express to Mason what he saw in the swamp.

   "Ivy and Groot were chased by the swamp monster and ran around. Zha and Harley defeated the members of the Green Order of Everything on the other side, but they still haven't found the kidnapped Joe?"

  Mason roughly understood what it meant from Kevin's "sign language", so he frowned and asked:

   "Where is Xiao Qiao? He shouldn't be sacrificed, right?"

   "croak"

  Kevin shook his head vigorously, then turned around and changed into Xiao Qiao's appearance.

It had seen a picture of Little Joe on the Kent farm, and the imitation was not perfect, but it bent down and scooped up a torn coat in the mud, handed it to Mason with both hands, and made gestures. Tiptoe running in the mud.

  This time Mason understood, he raised his eyebrows and said:

   "So Xiao Qiao escaped? This is really strange, he should be just an ordinary child?"

  Kevin shook his head vigorously, widened his eyes and made a gesture of firing lasers from both eyes, and corrected Mason that he had just seen the scene in the depths of the swamp where Xiao Qiao used heat rays to attack the vines infested by the swamp monster.

   "He awakened the Kryptonian abilities under pressure?"

   Mason nodded immediately.

   But then he reacted, looked at Kevin, and scolded:

   "Did you see Xiao Qiao just now? Why didn't you bring him here?"

  He thinks this is the ooze monster's playfulness.

   But in fact, Kevin is also very wronged. It wants to bring Xiao Qiao back to claim credit for Mason, but the problem is that the brat will fly when he awakens his power!

   Before Kevin got close, the terrified big super cub took off and plunged into the depths of the swamp, and there would be two of its mud clones looking around in it.

   Tch, the bear is the most annoying thing, and I obviously want to say hello to him.

  The angle of view turns to Xiao Qiao.

  This farm boy is running wildly in the dark swamp with his clothes disheveled. He wanted to fly all the way out of this dark land, but on the one hand, his Kryptonian power has just awakened, and it doesn't work at all.

  On the other hand, the terrain created by the swamp monster seems to have some kind of "air-forbidden" power. He can only fly to the treetops at most before being discovered by the surrounding vines.

   Those monster plants that emit poisonous gas like snakes are difficult to deal with, and he, a Krypton cub, cannot deal with them.

   "It's too dangerous here."

   Jonathan Kent was a little tired from running, so he folded his arms and hid by a big tree panting.

With his body stained with mud, he looked around with slight fear, vigilantly looking at any disturbances around him, and his senses would be strengthened when he was concentrating, so that this dark place could not cover his eyes, He could even hear the conversations of those cultists a kilometer away.

   "Animated plants, power-of-nature-screaming cultists and bewitched superheroes. And the slime! The slime that can turn into anyone!"

  Xiao Qiao thought so.

  He thought of the strange mud he met on the road after he managed to escape just now. The latter seemed to want to talk to him, but it chose to turn into a superman, making Xiao Qiao run away immediately very vigilantly.

  Dad told him that when you meet such a guy, you are incapable of fighting and you must use your brains to defeat the enemy!

   But Dad.

  When thinking of Clark, Little Joe's heart suddenly tightened. He knew that his father was caught by that strange woman because of his own reasons, and was brought here by those wizards who could teleport.

  If he hadn't had an awkward fight with his dad last night and was still hanging out during dinner, he and his son wouldn't have suffered such a nightmare.

   I don't know how dad is doing now?

  Although he is the most powerful person in the world, these cultists also look very strong.

  Maybe I should save him?

   Jonathan thought so.

  He couldn't help but clenched his fist, and he could feel the huge force coming from his arm.

This power was only awakened before, when those cultists were about to take themselves into the swamp to kill, the fear of death and the emotional pressure made him finally awaken the power of Krypton in his blood .

Fortunately, Aunt Kara taught him some kryptonian martial arts before. Of course, it was just for fun, but with Xiao Qiao's awakened power, even a playful collision and punch can still knock down the weird cultist who merged with the tree. land.

   "Hoo, Hoo"

  The Kryptonian boy hid in the hiding place and took a deep breath. This is the way his mother, who is a "journalist man", taught him to calm himself out of the chaotic emotions.

  He knew that the whole swamp was full of bad guys looking for him now, and he had to figure out a way to escape.

   But this swamp is like a magic maze.

  The terrain here kept changing, and Xiao Qiao couldn't get out by himself, but soon he heard the sound of footsteps and combat in another direction, which made him blink and rush over there quickly.

   "Burn! Burn 'em to death! Ashley, Franklin is throwing up again! He's getting sicker, whoever's going to watch him, don't let him spit on me, hell!"

  Damian's roar echoed in the dim swamp, and then a large flame shot out from the flamethrower in Miss Ironheart's arm.

The high-heat flames easily ignited the cultists of the Green Church of Everything when they came into contact with them. These monsters who used disgusting methods to blend flesh and plants backed away screaming, but were quickly drilled out of the mud. The mechanical ant colony devoured everything.

   "I still think it was a bad idea for us to barge in, Damian."

  Jimmy Hautley stood guard on the periphery, looked around vigilantly, and then turned back and shouted to Damian:

   "Our task is to attract attention. We have done a good job. We should wait outside the capital of Kandak according to the original plan instead of rushing into this place that looks terrible.

  We are trapped, this ghost enemy has been changing itself and can't find a way out. "

   "And Franklin needs help, look at him now."

  The wasteland spider girl will half kneel on the ground now, and the ant king Franklin is held in her arms.

  The latter's face was pale, especially after driving the ant colony to tear up the attacking cultist, it seemed to hit his brain, making him start to twitch like an asthma attack.

  He kept saying that he was not feeling well before the mission.

  At that time, Damian still felt that this cunning guy was trying to be lazy, but now it seems that he is not lying, his breathing rate and heartbeat are not very regular.

  As the captain, Damian felt the pressure again.

  He also regrets his aggressiveness a little bit, causing his team members to be put in danger.

Damian squatted next to Franklin, grabbed the ant king's wrist and injected the medicine for the injury, but the problem was that Franklin was not injured at all, he just had a high fever and couldn't explain where his discomfort came from. .

   "Maybe some kind of mutation?"

  Heart of Steel, who had burned the remains of the cultist, returned to her companion. She flipped off her visor and activated a biological monitoring program into the burning ear of the Ant King. The feedback reading made Morgan Stark also look serious.

  She said to Damian:

   "His intracranial pressure was rising, and the white blood cells in his blood were rising, like the immune system was fighting some invading foreign body, but it was also like an allergic reaction.

   We must return him to Osborne Tower immediately. "

   "But you can't get out of here."

  Damian clenched his fist and said:

"The swamp monster shaped this swamp with its own power, and we are equivalent to being trapped in its body. I read in Batman's database that unless the swamp monster's body is defeated, such a magical swamp cannot use external force get rid of."

   "Damian!"

  Jimmy, who was on guard outside, suddenly yelled something in the team communication, and at the same time quietly reported a direction. Damian quietly took out three bat darts from his arms, raised his head and made eye contact with Iron Heart.

  Ms. Morgan immediately activated the protective program of the armor, and nodded slightly to the captain.

  The next moment, Damian stood up suddenly and shot the batarang to the side, then drew out the kinetic pistol and matched Jimmy's wild charge to fire a wave of suppressive fire towards that side.

   Iron Heart's battle armor closed, and the missile bay popped out from behind to create a wave of explosions at the target position, and then watched as Damian and Jimmy rushed into the swampy jungle on the left.

   Seconds later they dragged a disfigured guy out of the bushes.

   "bass"

  The famous knife came out of its sheath, and the sharp blade touched the struggling Xiao Qiao's neck. Jimmy next to him grinned in pain. One of the bone claws on his left hand was broken in the collision just now.

   The skin of this hiding **** is as hard as steel!

   "Who are you! What are you doing here?"

  Damian was still in a hurry because of Franklin's strange illness, and he was merciless when he scolded him. The chill emanating from him made the farm boy Jonathan a little afraid.

  But seeing these young people burn the cultists to death with his own eyes just now, let him know that they are not with those scoundrels, so he said:

   "I was kidnapped by them, I have no malicious intentions!"

   "Kidnapping?"

  Damian froze for a moment, then immediately realized, he said in a strange tone:

   "Are you Jonathan Kent? Super's son?"

   "Yes, I am."

  Xiao Qiao responded immediately, but Damian asked back:

   "How do you prove that you are the son of Superman?"

  Little Joe tried to focus on his eyes, and then a short but scorching heat ray burst from his eyes, igniting a nearby tree.

   "Okay, identity confirmation, Jimmy, let him go."

  Damian was a little surprised, but still sheathed his knife.

  He didn't expect that he would actually rescue the Lord by mistake. Jimmy next to him touched his broken claw sadly, and then glanced at the ignorant Xiao Qiao and his outrageous steel body.

  He secretly decided in his heart that after he went back, he would have to ask Mason to arrange Anderman alloy infusion for himself. This feeling of being unable to break through the defense is really too bad for a man.

   "We found Xiao Qiao and can retreat. His body of steel can help."

  Damian turned around and said to Miss Tiexin:

   "Morgan, prepare fire support, let Xiao Qiao carry Franklin to fly, you give him fire support to destroy those vines, let him send Franklin out quickly and call Mason for rescue."

   "Look at Franklin!"

  Ashley screamed suddenly, and she quickly jumped up from the spot as if she had encountered something of fear.

  All eyes turned to Franklin who was lying on the ground, and saw that the mud around the wasteland ant king began to twist strangely and shaped into a steel creature very similar to an ant.

  It "swallowed" Franklin whole into its stomach, hissed at the people around it, and then launched an attack.

   "What the **** is this?"

Tie Xin fired three shots at it without breaking the latter's skin, so he could only keep retreating. Damian rushed forward at the first time, but was quickly knocked into the air by the latter, and then caught by Xiao Qiao with quick eyesight and quick hands. hand.

  Seeing that the boy K team was about to be wiped out by this weird thing, a few **** of mud jumped up and turned into the appearance of Super and Batman and rushed to stop the steel monster from raging.

   "There it is! Mud monster!"

  Little Qiao screamed strangely, and was about to alert everyone, but Damian shouted to the lump of mud that was constantly being torn apart and reassembled as if seeing hope:

   "Kevin! Quick! Call Mason."

   "It's a good tactic to call out to your master when you know you can't handle it, and I'm here, right? What are you calling for?"

  During the transition of the water body, Mason appeared behind Damian with a helpless tone, and then glanced at the unharmed Xiao Qiao before he felt relieved.

   But after looking at the big steel ant that "swallowed" Franklin Richards, his expression immediately became weird.

   As a mutant, Mason was quite familiar with the thing in front of him that was apparently out of control. It wasn't the big ant itself that was transformed from mud into steel, but the power that prompted the transformation of matter.

  It is not surprising that this kind of power that transcends reality and cannot be explained by any scientific theory is placed on mutants.

   "Franklin Richards' X gene has awakened, what a bad news."

  Mason narrowed his eyes and said to the surrounding children:

   "Stand back, mutants in this semi-awakened state are the most dangerous, they will indiscriminately attack anyone around them who makes them feel uncomfortable or threatened.

  You can't handle this. "

   "Huh? Franklin is a mutant?"

  Damian was stunned when he heard this, he said suspiciously:

   "Didn't you check it before? He's just an ordinary kid."

   "When the X gene of all mutants is not activated, they are ordinary people, but who knows what kind of situation they will suddenly explode. Although I am also a mutant, I don't know more about this thing than you."

  He complained.

I thought to myself that Franklin Richards, who I picked up from the wasteland, was an inferior version of "Shenzhen Gathering", but now this little **** has given himself a job, and he has quietly started the mutant awakening .

   Maybe it's because he went to another world after joining the K team and felt the pressure of growing up?

   It is said that stress is also a necessary condition for the awakening of the X gene.

   "Kevin, take these children to Zha and Harley, and let them go to Ivy to help deal with the swamp monster."

  Mason rolled up his sleeves and planned to play by himself, and then gave his ooze monster another order.

"etc!"

  Damian stretched out his hand to stop:

   "I don't think the strength of the young K team can compete with the swamp monster. Maybe you should send us out?"

   "Trust me, Damian."

  Mason pushed the glasses frame on the bridge of his nose, and said to Damian and the young people:

   "It's definitely safer for you to fight the swamp monster now than to stay here."

   While driving the children of the Junior K team to a safe place, he planned to personally suppress Franklin Richards, who was thinking wildly.

  But seeing the ant monster in front of him hissing and screaming at him made Mason feel a toothache.

   If he remembers correctly, Franklin Richards is not only an Omeglevel mutant, but also the most dangerous and powerful of all mutants.

  His reality distortion can even reach the omnipotent level, nicknamed "the shaper of the universe", which is much more powerful than the mad Scarlet Witch.

  Mason took out the magic jar of the zombie Scarlet Witch from his arms, and said to the strange ant monster that Franklin created to protect himself in a coma:

   "I said, boy, you are a big man who can be called a brother and brother with the invincible Uncle Tun, and for the sake of bringing you back from the wasteland, if you really want to beat me later, remember to do it softly."
