Chapter 33 33TMD, I'm Really an Orphan Now

Chapter 33 33. Damn, this time he really became an orphan

The zombie three-headed dog Maomao, or a more majestic and formal name "Luffy", was ruthlessly hacked to death by Lao K in the wizard world, and was "resurrected" by Mason with three fragments of the resurrection stone.

It is still in zombie form, and will not listen to the command of Mason, a stranger.

If there is no one around, this guy will attack Mason himself as soon as he is released, but unfortunately, the black warriors don't know this secret.

The moment they saw the nearly four-meter-tall zombie three-headed dog appear, they fell into a sluggish state of doubting life, and then a guy who was impatient or had a quick reaction subconsciously pulled the trigger.

This is over.

The first bullet hit Maomao's head in the middle, leaving a small wound on its forehead, which healed quickly under the effect of the resurrection stone fragments without even bleeding.

But this attack immediately guided Maomao's attack direction.

The horror trio of howling echoed in the dirty sewer.

The black warrior at the front didn't even have time to escape before he was knocked away by the terrifying three-headed dog that pounced on him. He was bitten and torn apart by three terrifying dog heads in the air.

Hot blood mixed with internal organs was scattered everywhere.

This brutal and fatal blow completely opened the curtain of the destruction of the last elite team of the Assassin's League.

As for Mason, who was maintaining the posture of a trainer and pretending that he had a great advantage, he also got some free time. He moved his neck, pulled out the hand cannon from his waist and searched forward along the blood on the ground.

That was the blood left by the Penguin.

He was shot through the thigh by Gordon before, and now he was desperately running away in the sewer but couldn't run far.

The Penguin is not a superpower.

He got to where he is today entirely because of his good brain. Of course, the fact that he can make things like armed umbrellas proves that the Penguin is also a very powerful engineer.

But these two advantages can't help him escape in the current situation.

"Bang"

Mason, who caught up, fired a bullet, breaking the other leg of Oswald who was staggering forward, causing his short and fat body to fall to the ground in a mess and scream like a pig being slaughtered.

The pain filled every nerve of the big man. He tried to turn himself over, supported his body with both hands and retreated in the pool of blood, while Mason in front of him strode towards him with the weird hand cannon that looked like a shotgun with a sawed-off barrel.

There was not much light in the sewer so Penguin could not see Mason's expression, but as he looked at the young man who was getting closer and closer, a sense of despair rose in his well-tested heart.

He knew.

He was finished.

"Why?"

At this last critical moment, the boss shouted at the top of his lungs:

"I have done nothing wrong to you! Mason, I have been very kind to your father Robert. I immediately recruited you after his death and planned to give you a future!

Why?"

"You mean, you also have to buy me a life insurance policy and write your name as the second beneficiary?"

Mason stopped and looked down at the Penguin who was on his last legs.

He whispered:

"Where is the pension for Robert Cooper after he was hacked to death by Maroni's men while fighting for your territory in Miller Harbor? The insurance compensation you bought for him didn't reach me.

As for the future

If being a doorman at the Iceberg Bar is considered a bright future, then you are really good to me."

"But we can talk! You look like a good kid."

The Penguin waved his bloody hands and shouted:

"If it's just money! We can definitely talk, Mason, young man, I have a lot of money, I can give it to you! I'll give it to you voluntarily, what else do you want?

Status?

Women?

It doesn't matter, just tell me.

You can take whatever I have!

As long as I'll go back, I promise I'll give them all to you, but if I die here, you'll get nothing but a corpse.

This is not worth it, kid!

Just keep the bullet, look at me, I'm already sixty years old, I have bad living habits, diabetes and high blood pressure, I'll die sooner or later.

It's just a matter of time, you don't need to help me with physical acceleration!

You know, I've always been a man of my words.

I can be a big boss in Gotham thanks to the reputation I've accumulated over the past decade, you know. "

"Click"

The answer to him was the sound of the hand cannon folding and the slug being stuffed into the gun chamber, the light in Penguin's eyes dimmed little by little, he knew his persuasion had failed.

Seeing Mason raise his gun, the cunning guy's mind raced, and he suddenly shouted:

"You bastard! I should have let Robert throw you to death! I don't know what the hell that bastard is crazy about, he has to adopt a kid of unknown origin!

I know that we can't be soft-hearted in our line of work."

"Huh?"

Mason stopped pulling the trigger.

A trace of suspicion appeared on his face, and this suspicion was also keenly captured by the Penguin. He seemed to see a ray of hope, and shouted loudly:

"Ha, you don't know yet, right? Poor child, you don't know your true life experience at all! This is actually a very small matter for me, just because Robert was my right-hand man back then.

Yes, it was your father.

My career was just starting at that time.

I had no better choice, and although Robert was not very smart, he was loyal and fierce enough, which made me remember the incident that almost caused me and your father to fall out.

Do you want to know?

Let me go! Take me out! I will tell you this! I can guarantee that you will never find another person who can tell you this except me.

The witnesses of that year are all dead. "

In the darkness, Mason thought and remained silent. After more than ten seconds, he put down his gun under the gaze of the Penguin and said:

"Speak, I'm listening."

"Take me up first, the monster you released looks hungry. "

The Penguin laughed dryly but refused to give in.

Mason glanced at him, walked forward and dragged his hand to the exit of the sewer, and threw him on the floor of Blackgate Prison a minute later.

Oswald, who seemed to have returned to the world, laughed hoarsely and intermittently. He coughed, as if he was grateful for his escape from the three-headed dog.

Under Mason's cold and gloomy gaze, the Penguin wiped his muddy face and said:

"You were picked up by Robert!

16 or 17 years ago, I can't remember the exact time.

I only remember that it was a very cold night. I had just killed my boss and got a small piece of land, and Robert helped me a lot, so I gave him a lot of money.

You know, your father is a complete scumbag, alcoholic and irritable, and he is like crazy when he is drunk, but he has one good thing, he loves his wife very much.

Although his wife, your mother, can't have children due to physical reasons. "

Oswald gasped, the pain eroding his body made him lie there twitching, but facing Mason's black muzzle, the big man still insisted and said slowly:

"I don't know the specific process, I only know that Robert took the money from me and went out to drink and have fun, and bought a lot of expensive things like crazy, saying that he would take them back to give to his wife to make her happy.

He left the bar drunk, and a few hours later, he and his wife ran back. I was already asleep when they woke me up.

He showed me what he was holding in his arms

Hehe, a baby in a swaddling cloth, that is, you!

Robert didn't want you, Mason, but your mother held you tightly. She said that this was a gift from God, and she would rather give up everything to keep you.

Your father really loves your mother. He couldn't persuade her, so he asked me to use my relationship in the city hall to get you a certificate.

Do you know what the most bizarre thing is? "

The Penguin laughed twice and said:

"Your skin color is very similar to your mother's. It's like a gift from God to that poor woman. I helped them. After all, Robert is my right-hand man.

Two years later, that guy turned over a new leaf and planned to live a good life.

But unfortunately, your mother didn't have the blessing to see you grow up. The poor woman got seriously ill. Robert worked like crazy to make money for her treatment but couldn't make her survive.

You may have forgotten it.

When your mother died, she begged Robert to take good care of you.

I saw that scene with my own eyes. Unfortunately, Robert was a bad man, and he went completely crazy after losing the last bit of beauty given to him by the world.

I'm done.

That's all I know, but I think this old secret is enough to buy my life. "

"But I don't think it's enough. "

Mason raised his gun and pointed it at the Penguin and said:

"You have to tell me more. Where did he pick me up from?"

"I don't know! "

Oswald said irritably:

"I've said it all. I was resting at that time. However, if I remember correctly, there was a label of Gotham Orphanage on your swaddling clothes when they brought you here.

I once suspected that Robert, the lunatic, stole a child from the orphanage to please his sick wife.

But later when he was drunk, he said it, and it didn't seem to be the case.

He said that you were picked up by accident from a car accident scene, otherwise it would not be so easy to register you in the Cooper family.

He did not break the law in picking you up.

I've said everything I know. Now it's your turn to fulfill your promise, you bastard. You've cut off two of my fingers. I should pay you back for what I've done to you.

After all, I helped you survive that year!

Boy!

You should be grateful! "

"You're right. I should be grateful. "

Mason let out a long breath, put the hand cannon back into his waist, and reached out to pick up the Penguin with broken legs and pulled him a few steps out. After leaving a blood mark on the ground, he looked at the Penguin, picked up a gun from the blood stain next to him, took out the magazine and ejected the bullet, leaving only one bullet inside.

Then, under the wide-eyed gaze of the Penguin, he raised the muzzle of the gun and pulled the trigger.

With a "bang", the head of a zombie wandering in the distance exploded, and the remaining zombies were attracted by the sound and staggered towards this side.

Oswald struggled frantically.

He knew what Mason was going to do.

He shouted:

"No! You can't do this! You vicious kid who unleashed disaster! Batman will not let you go!"

"So you also know that Batman can't know about this?"

Mason laughed and leaned over, putting the gun without bullets in the arms of the Penguin, and said:

"Your bullet has been saved, Mr. Oswald. Now use the secrets in your mind to convince these "friends" in front of you.

Don't think I don't know why you want me to bring you up.

You know you can't survive today.

But you are not afraid of death.

Because your partners have the means to revive you. The Assassin's League's Saralu Pool, a magical treasure that can bring people back to life.

Unfortunately, I also know this secret."

He patted the Penguin's shoulder and said:

"Bullets can't kill you, they will only free you faster. And I did my best to arrange all this not to let you escape from death and continue to live freely, becoming another trouble in my future life.

I hate trouble.

As for the one you helped seventeen years ago, A baby. Sorry, he's dead.

He could have safely completed his studies at Gotham High School and lived a plain and satisfying life. It was you who pulled him into your gang.

It was you who pulled him back into the darkness and brought him misfortune.

One life, one death.

Now it's even.

Pray, Mr. Oswald. "

Mason pulled up the collar of the struggling Penguin from behind and threw him towards the zombies. At the moment his hands loosened, the young man said to him:

"The feud between the Penguin and the Cooper family is over. You are free, and I am free too."

"Ah!"

The short man covered in blood was smashed into the hungry zombie brothers who rushed over with screams, and Mason did not look back, let alone enjoy the wailing before death.

Although he personally created a disaster tonight, Mason is not a person who enjoys cruelty. All this is just a means to achieve his goal.

In the final analysis, it was the Penguin Gang and the Assassin's League who provoked him first.

Since they took the initiative to start a war, they should be prepared to bear failure in advance.

That's the truth, no right or wrong.

The young man walked down the sewer holding the voodoo birdcage.

Maomao should have eaten enough, it's time to recycle it, he doesn't want Blackgate Prison to have another legend of a three-headed hellhound living in the sewer.

But Mason was not calm at this time.

He walked in the sewer, moving in the direction of the roar, and the secret that Penguin just said kept emerging in his mind.

He complained in his heart that when he was reborn, he was still glad that his cheap father was killed in the fight and became an orphan without any worries.

Unexpectedly, his words came true.

The secret identity hidden under the beginning of his new life turned out to be a real, honest orphan.

He recalled the sufferings of this body in the past 17 years.

So little happiness, so much sadness.

While exploring the details, he couldn't help but comment that this young man's past was so miserable and so mediocre, and he didn't look like he had any special identity.

"Boss, the Batfighter has started to clear the ground, and I saw the Batmobile coming over. Are you done?"

The Kite Man's urging sounded in the headset, accompanied by the low roar of some large creations being blown up. Mason shook his head to calm himself down.

The zombie three-headed dog in front of him, who had feasted on the food, was howling and stepping on the sewage and rushing towards him. Mason took out the voodoo birdcage and pulled it into this strange magic cage like a bullfighter at the moment when Mao Mao rushed over, and then threw it back into the suitcase.

A minute later, Mason climbed back onto the ground of Blackgate Prison.

Looking into the distance, he saw the Penguin who was already mixed in the zombie group and "swaying happily" with his "good brothers".

He took a look at the surrounding environment, put on his invisibility cloak and rushed towards the direction where Fang was roaring, and said to the anxious Kite Man:

"Sorry, there was an accident just now but it has been resolved. Prepare to blow up the escape exit, Charles, I will rush over after I retrieve Fang!

Next, help the Bat Family clean up the zombies. Remember not to act so "professional" later so as not to be discovered. Also, remember to dispose of this set of headphones before reuniting!

Don't let them catch any details."
