Chapter 6 6. My rebirth is not that simple. The quality of the newcomers this time is really poor.

"Master, the positioning signal you left on Mason Cooper has disappeared."

Batman, who was beating up the killer of the man in black, got the news from Ah Fu, but it did not affect his punching movements. The old butler said in a regretful tone:

"It is very likely that he was captured by Lei Xiaogu's assassins, or even worse, Master Jason's tragedy is about to happen again. You may be right, these talented children really have to stay away from you to be safe."

"Won't!"

With an expressionless face, the master knocked down a killer who was trying to sneak attack with one punch. He said in a deep voice:

"One time is enough for Jason! Keep following up, Afu.

When I first came into contact with Mason at the police station, I left him not only a positioning signal, but also a special pheromone that could last for seven days.

Deploy a swarm of drones to search for him throughout Gotham.

We must find him."

"."

The old butler Alfred was silent for a moment and said:

"Your behavior of leaving countermeasures when meeting other people for the first time is really bad. Wasn't Ms. Diana's incident enough for you to learn a lesson?

That misunderstanding cost you at least $500 million."

"Just enough to replace the Bat Fighter with a brand new power system."

Batman looked at the direction where Mason last disappeared, and then at the burning wreckage of the fighter plane a few blocks away, and he whispered:

"Afu, your driving skills should really be improved. You cost me a lot of money tonight."

"It's okay, Master. Wayne Industries' stock price has been rising recently. Special tracking drones have been released. In addition, Master, the assassins have begun to retreat.

If you want to install trackers on them too, please hurry up."

——

When Mason woke up again, he found that he was lying on an unfamiliar bed. When he opened his eyes, he saw an unfamiliar ceiling, and then a familiar translucent light curtain unfolded in front of his eyes, showing his current state:

Name: Mason Cooper

Status: Injured (healing), broken leg (healing), sedative effect (17 minutes countdown)

Identity: Gotham High School Dropout, Penguin Betrayer

Skills: Shooting Lv1, Alchemy Lv0, Engineering Lv0, Blacksmithing Lv0, Tailoring Lv0

"Your physique is really bad. Apart from being a bit talented in shooting, you are almost completely an ordinary person. I'm starting to regret bringing you back."

A voice sounded from the side of the bed, causing Mason to turn his head with difficulty. It was a middle-aged and elderly man wearing a weird windbreaker lined with an old-style suit.

His face was almost featureless, but the star map mask he placed next to him allowed Mason to recognize his identity.

"Then you should probably leave me there."

Mason said in a weak hoarse voice:

"Before I passed out, I heard you talking about 'Glory' and the 'Gathering of the Stars'. Who are you? Are you a member of some mysterious organization in Gotham City?

Like the Court of Owls?"

"Well, do you still know about the Court of Owls? It seems I have to re-evaluate your knowledge."

The guy sat on the chair next to the bed, picked up a clipboard and wrote on it in a serious manner, and said without raising his head as if he had everything under control:

"But my organization is much more powerful than the Court of Owls. The two are not on the same level at all. I will tell you the extra stuff after you complete the onboarding test. I can only tell you what you should know.

for example"

The man tapped the clipboard in his hand, looked up at Mason, and said:

"I know you are confused about the current situation, you can think of this as a kind of 'selection'.

The team I was responsible for suffered heavy damage during the last exploration operation and had to recruit several new people to fill up the strength. As you can see, I treated you in my own way and brought you back to the world from the desperate situation of weakness and death.

.

So, you owe me a favor.

That way, it won't be too out of the blue for me to ask you to join my team. I've been observing you since the moment you rescued Catwoman."

Having said this, the guy smiled as if he had remembered something interesting and said:

"Actually, my team has already been filled up. The city of Gotham is full of talented people with various abilities. We originally planned to start taking action right away.

But at this juncture, you used a series of dazzling performances to successfully make me notice you, so I temporarily decided to give you a chance."

"Then I really want to thank you."

Mason replied expressionlessly.

He would already feel that something was not right.

Although the guy in front of me behaved politely, the unquestionable flavor in his words made people feel uncomfortable.

It seems that even pulling Mason into a dangerous-sounding exploration operation is a condescending attitude. From this point of view, this guy must be an arrogant and hypocritical person.

"Can I refuse this operation?"

Mason asked directly:

"I'm very grateful to you for saving me. Maybe I can repay you in other ways. Although I don't have much money now, I have a very rich friend."

The guy smiled and said nothing, but looked at Mason with a sarcastic look, as if looking at a person talking nonsense. The young man curled his lips and asked again:

"What is the action? Where to explore? How long will it take?"

"You'll know then."

The guy took the initiative to end the conversation, stood up, straightened his collar, showed a false smile and said to Mason:

"There is still a day and a half before the operation starts. There are enough firearms and accessories you need in the basement of this house. Try to be fully prepared. Your duties are fire support and sniper.

You can call me Lao K, of course it’s a pseudonym.

You can also try to escape, I will never stop you.

But the secret societies in your world are really cool, and I just happened to get some really interesting stuff from a woman named Amanda Waller."

He stretched out his finger, pointed maliciously at the place where the back of his neck connected with his spine, and turned around to leave. Mason's expression changed slightly, and he endured the weakness and put his hand on the back of his neck.

There was a newly healed wound there.

The moment his fingers touched, a line of prompts jumped into Mason's eyes:

"An engineering explosive has been detected. According to the analysis, the item is a 'suicide squad-specific implanted micro-bomb'. It has two triggering methods: active and passive. When detonated, it will form a lethal explosion in the spine.

The object is so delicate that any unnecessary touch will cause it to explode immediately.

It is recommended to try to dismantle it when engineering reaches Lv2, first aid reaches Lv3 or you have quick healing drugs.

The drawing is being analyzed."

"Fake!"

Mason clenched his fists, that bastard!

Sure enough, with so many lines, he is not a good person at first glance, right?

But the young man did not despair. He had no time to despair and was not a person who would admit defeat to reality. Otherwise, he would not have to take risks to save Catwoman after rebirth.

The character card has given a solution, so the next thing to do is very simple. Seize every moment to upgrade your engineering skills to Lv2 as soon as possible.

First Aid hasn't branched out yet, but Mason knows what to do.

He endured the numbness all over and tried to sit up, opened the bedside table and found a fruit knife and a home first aid kit.

After taking a few deep breaths, the young man grabbed the knife and touched it to his finger. The moment the blood flowed out, he picked up alcohol pads and gauze and began to clumsily stop the bleeding and bandage the wound.

A minute later, Mason got his wish and saw the prompt that the first aid branch was open.

But that indifferent Lv0 gave him a huge headache.

Damn old K said that he will start exploring in one and a half days. It is still possible to rush into engineering in one and a half days, but he can't always give himself a knife and bandage like this in first aid.

Regardless of whether we are risking our lives or not, this efficiency is too low.

With this thought in mind, Mason took off the bandage on his finger and tied it again. This time with some experience, the effect was obviously better than last time.

"Successfully complete a standard quick bandage, and your proficiency in first aid skills will be improved."

Mason looked at the prompt in front of him. He sighed again and took off the bandage to start wrapping it for the third time. But this time he saw other things in the first aid kit. He thought of the process of the field bandaging tutorial he had learned and tried it.

Came here once.

"Successfully completed an excellent craft and quick bandage, and the proficiency in first aid skills was increased by X5."

"Um?"

The young man's eyes lit up.

Does this thing require skill to gain experience?
