The Track of Dawn In the World of Marvel

  Chapter 13 13. Unarmed bomb disposal has always been a big job

  Among the desolate ruins of the Hogwarts Great Hall, Mason, who was wearing a rag-pointed hat on his head, had finished listening to the spooky passage of the crazy school hat.

   He blinked.

  From this guy's shouting, it is not difficult for him to judge that Hogwarts must have been destroyed by a planned invasion. It seems that the truth of the destruction of this world is really hidden besides the zombies.

  So he casually asked:

   "Revenge on whom? Who destroyed this place?"

   "Revenge. Revenge! The contract of revenge is set, waiting for my awakening to be stitched up! Sew me up first. It's really disgraceful."

   But the branch hat stopped answering him.

  Like an old man returning to life, he quietly dropped his voice, without Mason needing to take it, the thing fell from the top of the young man by itself and was picked up by Mason.

  Although he said he wanted to eat Mason, but there was no hint of being cursed or hurt on the character card. Thinking about it, it might just be that the branch school hat is simply crazy.

  He shrugged and packed the dirty thing into his backpack.

  The young man didn’t think about hiding his secrets. As he said, without even a storage bag, it’s simply impossible to hide the loot from old K.

   But this does not affect Mason's joyful mood after a wave of "good start".

   This at least proves that his character is not bad.

  So he continued to search along the ruins of the auditorium. After nearly two hours of exploration, he finally found the destroyed college library after passing through a completely collapsed room.

  The bad news is that the books in it have been burned to the ground in sevens and eighties.

  The good news is that Mason found a fairly complete Encyclopedia of Alchemy and Potions on the bookshelf of Potions and Alchemy. Judging from the cover, it was a revised and annotated version by Dumbledore himself.

   This is one of the most valuable collectibles he has found so far.

   Another hour passed, and a somewhat tired Mason sat on a lace-side bed in the ruins of the witch dormitory and tapped his harvest.

  The dazzling array of things in front of his eyes, including:

  Five slightly damaged magic bags of different sizes can be barely repaired with tailoring skills, but the required skills must be above Lv2.

  A lot of magic materials found everywhere, there are many high-end goods collected by the instructors of the academy, which can be used for the follow-up study of alchemy, enchanting and inscriptions.

  Finally, there is a large bunch of keys to various facilities in the college, a "friendship gift" from Mr. Argus Filch, the dormitory administrator.

   This unlucky guy who likes to blame others is trapped in his own room. Fortunately, he escaped the disaster, but he couldn't escape the attack of his beloved cat who turned into a zombie.

   Mason ended his tragic life with his cat with a buckshot.

   Speaking of zombie cats.

  The young man took out from his arms the small black birdcage that Old K had given him in exchange.

   This thing is a pure magic item. Professor McGonagall's transformed zombie tiger cat will be locked in it now, as if scaled down.

  He looked at this thing, and the information label quickly popped up:

  Blackbeard's Voodoo Birdcage

  Quality: Excellent Alchemy/Enchanting Items · Excellent Craftsmanship

  Status: The sealed item (Minerva McGonagall) has been marked, and the spell can be released or retracted.

  Effect: Edward Teach, the great voodoo wizard and legendary pirate "Blackbeard", pioneered the unique sealing voodoo technique, and this birdcage was made by him for his distinguished guests.

  After marking the sealed item, you can seal it regardless of its size and weight and carry it with you.

  The birdcage can only work on "dead" objects.

  Item Description: The cunning and cruel Blackbeard prepared gifts for his distinguished guests, which allowed him to win the friendship of His Excellency K.

   "Meow~"

  A mournful neighing sound came from the black birdcage, and the zombie tiger cat was circling around in it irritably, scratching the cage with its sharp claws from time to time.

  Like a irascible little devil.

  Mason put the cage on the bed, and the cage swelled to the size of a normal birdcage the moment he left his hand. He comforted the zombie cat in the cage, snapped his fingers to attract its attention, and said:

   "Don't worry, there will be fresh meat for you in a while."

   While speaking, a black shadow descended from the sky.

  Following the mechanical sound of the kite being folded into the backpack, the kiteman, who was a little afraid and looked left and right, appeared in front of Mason with a bag of things in his arms.

   "He's exploring the collapsed tower on the other side of the ruins."

  The kiteman patted the tablet on his waist for manipulating the engineering bomb, and said in a low voice:

   "Your prediction was right, Mason, I saw that **** just headed in the direction of old K with the drone camera you gave me. She's the guy's dog!"

"right?"

  Mason grinned, glanced at the kite man, and said:

   "Is she alive?"

   "It's okay, so-so."

  The old man in his thirties shrugged his shoulders and showed a smile that men can understand. Obviously, the good man who was sent to the door last night relieved the pressure.

  But both of them knew that there was not much time left for them, so the kite man simply and neatly put the big bag in his arms on the bed and opened it.

  It is full of all kinds of bottles and cans.

  He pointed to these things and said:

   "This is all the medicine-like things I found in the ruins, maybe the legendary magic medicine, but are you really sure that these things will be useful?

  I mean, you don't have any professional tools to risk dismantling that tiny bomb buried in your spine? Are you kidding me? "

   "If you want to risk your life, I will play first. What are you afraid of?"

  Mason quickly groped to check the information labels on these bottles and cans, and said without raising his head:

   "I wrote it very clearly on the note, even if I fail and get killed by the bomb, you can still rely on old K to continue living. That guy will not kill you so easily now that he lacks people.

   But if I succeed, there will be a second way for both of us!

  You who have followed the clown should know how happy it is to have a choice in a desperate situation. "

   "I know! Otherwise I wouldn't risk helping you."

  The kite man was still a little anxious, he fidgeted back and forth and said:

   "But even if we dismantle the bomb, so what? That old K is very powerful, both of us will probably be hacked to death with his sword, and we can't escape.

   Do you have a plan? "

   "Yes, wait a minute!"

  Mason waved his hand to silence the kiteman.

  He carefully looked at the various bottles and cans on the bed in front of him, and the information labels on them flashed past one by one.

   "Hair growth potion, burp potion, and euphoria potion didn't work. Hmm, Felix Elixir? Good thing, this one works!"

  The young man quickly took out a black vial and put it aside, then continued to search for it, and read out the precise names of these potions while searching.

  The kite man next to him stared at this process.

   "Skeletal Spirit? It may be useful! Then there is... blood tonic, this is it!"

  Mason quickly picked out three potions that needed to be used. He put three bottles of different shapes in his hands to check, and their labels were quickly popped out completely:

A high-level alchemy compound was detected. The item in the analysis is "Felix Elixir", a high-level potion, the effect is to bring "luck" to the person who takes it, and everything you want to do until the effect disappears (12 hours) Everything will work out.

  Note: The scope of effect of Felicia is limited to events with a high probability of success. It does not have the ability to change the rules. The drug is toxic, and drinking it multiple times in a short period of time will cause serious consequences.

   Alchemy skills are too low to analyze the complete formula.

  Skeletal Spirit, an advanced potion, has the effect of regrowing missing or damaged bones in a short period of time.

  Note: Skeleton will cause great pain beyond imagination when used.

  The drawing has been included.

  Blood tonic, advanced potion, the effect is to instantly replenish lost blood and heal injuries.

  Note: The refining process of the blood tonic is simple, but the effect of the medicine depends on the skill of the alchemist. The blood tonic is made by the great wizard himself, and it can instantly heal injuries below [serious injuries] and replenish the lost blood.

  The drawing has been included.

  Mason took a long breath, released a flying engineering bomb to let it float above his head, put the control panel in front of his eyes, and made a simple "surgical live projection" with the camera.

   He took out the swallow medicine given by old K and the scalpel and tweezers in his bag.

   He glanced at the kite man, who was even more nervous than he was.

  Mason pointed to the sky and said:

   "Help me watch, hold them when they come, I need at least five minutes. If I fail, all my things belong to you.

  Remember to collect the body for me.

  By the way, take my ashes back to Gotham and sprinkle them in the Gotham River. "

   "Are you really going to do this?"

  The kite man looked at the scalpel and the bottles of potion in Mason's hand, he clenched his fist and said:

   "Just operating on yourself without any assistance, you are no longer risking your life! Maybe we can obey old K.

  I think that although he is hypocritical, he is not that kind.”

   "There is no other choice! Charles!"

  Mason got up and slapped him, and shouted loudly:

   "Listen to me! Don't expect people like Old K to take the initiative to unlock the bomb for you just because you are loyal!

  You were with the clown before, and I was with the penguin before, I went astray and had to give Oswald a bullet myself in order to escape the bleak future!

  I did that, Batman would let me go.

do you understand me?

  You have to fight for your own life! Don't put your life on the kindness of bastards, now, help me watch it! Then pray I succeed, OK? "

"knew."

  The kite man gritted his teeth, took a step back and opened the kite to fly high into the sky by the wind direction, hovering over the ruins.

   While Mason returned to the bed, looking at the back of his neck reflected on the tablet in front of him, he took off his clothes and bare his upper body, and first drank old K's swallow potion in one gulp, allowing the healing effect to take effect within five minutes.

  Afterwards, he swiftly picked up the Felicity Elixir and dripped a few drops into his mouth. Suddenly, an incomparably exciting feeling surged into his heart, and he howled with indescribable confidence.

   There seems to be a voice echoing in Mason's ear:

   "Go for it! Boy! You will survive and give old K a big surprise! You will make a big career, start now!"

   Driven by this confident spiritual power, Mason took another deep breath.

  Put the Earl of Vertigo's intracranial disruptor aside for later use, then the scalpel in his left hand and the tweezers in his right approached the back of his neck where the bomb was implanted.

   "唰"

  The sharp scalpel cut open the V-shaped wound on the back of the neck under Mason's unbelievably stable cutting, and the blood flowed profusely in an instant but quickly stopped the bleeding while the healing potion continued to take effect.

  The opportunity is only this moment.

   Mason, who was biting the gauze in his mouth, let out a low muffled grunt, and the tweezers in his right hand penetrated into the wound.

  He stared at the tablet screen in front of him, and the twitching pain was still pounding his mind crazily even after the healing potion relieved it, but it didn't affect the young man's finger movements.

  This is why you must go to Engineering Lv2 to try to disarm the miniature bomb.

  Because only the "skillful hand" trait at this level can guarantee that he will not be caused by pain to make his fingers twitch.

   That bomb implanted in the spinal gap.

  It is smaller than a fingernail. Once Mason's hand slips, let alone whether he can take out the bomb, the spine that may be stabbed will definitely kill him on the spot.

  But with the insurance of the bone spirit, even if the spine is really injured, there is no need to be afraid.

  He stared at the tablet and used tweezers to dig into it, and pinched the edge of the miniature bomb precisely. Perhaps the Felicity Elixir really took effect. This supposedly most difficult process went smoothly and unbelievably smoothly.

  After confirming that the bomb was clamped, Mason didn't even have time to pull it out bit by bit, and directly pressed the scalpel against it, and cut off a piece of flesh the moment he exerted force with his hands.

  The terrifying pain almost made Mason faint on the spot at this moment.

   But he made it through.

   Throwing away the scalpel and punching the jammer by the table, the electromagnetic wave emitted was delayed by the tiny bomb pulled out of the wound so that it did not explode instantly.

While gulping down the blood tonic, the young man threw the **** miniature bomb piece of flesh with the tweezers towards the birdcage on the bed, and the screaming zombie cat, stimulated by the blood, bit the flesh and swallowed it into its stomach .

"boom"

  Mason was limp on the ground.

   His whole body was covered in blood, and he felt that he was going to die in an instant.

  However, under the action of several potions, his horribly cut wound was recovering rapidly, miraculously returning to its original state within the blink of an eye.

  He was lying in a pool of blood, staring at the gray sky with wide eyes, his body was completely soaked in sweat and blood, but a feeling of no longer being threatened came to his heart, and he couldn't help showing a pale and weak smile.

  And on the translucent light curtain in front of him, a line of prompts that arrived long ago seemed to be celebrating his hard-won victory:

  "Successfully completed an outstanding craftsmanship · high-precision engineering explosives dismantling, and the proficiency of engineering skills increased by X40.

  Successfully complete an excellent craft · fast first aid for fatal injuries, and the first aid skills proficiency will increase by X50. "

   "My God!"

   A few minutes later, the kite man who descended from the sky looked at Mason Cooper who got up from the pool of blood by himself, his eyes filled with disbelief.

  he shouted:

   "You really did it! Good boy! You are a genius! Quick! Give me a knife too! We agreed before!"

   "Let me take a break."

  Mason took out water to wash his body while rubbing his recovered neck. He glanced at the kite man, then pointed to the screaming zombie cat in the cage on the bed, and said:

   "Do you know why I should keep it now?"

   "Understood! After the miniature bomb is taken out, if you want it not to explode and not be discovered by Old K, you must have a close-fitting carrier, so that he feels that he still has the chance to win."

  The kiteman grinned.

  Under Mason's watchful eye, a large squeaking zombie vole was grabbed from behind. The thing's claws and teeth had been pulled out.

  The third-line villain snorted, shook the fat field mouse in his hand triumphantly, and said:

   "I'm not unprepared, I just caught this, just for now."

"you know"

   Mason stared at the zombie field mouse in the kite man's hand, and he said with a long voice:

   "Actually, I don't have to fulfill my promise to help you remove the bomb at all. You have to follow me all the way to the dark, right?"

  The expression of the kite man changed a bit.

  The next moment, Mason pointed to the bed, showed a smile of "ha, you are scared", and said:

   "Go, lie there, it may hurt a little later. But I said it in advance, Charles."

  The young man took out medical alcohol to disinfect the scalpel in his hand. He looked at the kite man lying on the bed and undressed, and reminded:

   "After you do this, you can't turn back, so I can tell you all my plans with confidence. I hope I can trust you, and I hope you can trust me as much as I trust you."

   "I know, I'm from Gotham."

  The kite man took off his clothes, bit a piece of gauze in his mouth, closed his eyes, and said vaguely:

   "You will be my new boss from now on."
