"I killed all the soldiers, and the sonar stopped, so why are these monsters still pouring out of the water?"
"How would I know if you didn't ask me?" Arthur said with a wry smile.
Just then, a melodious song came from the depths of the ocean. The ethereal voice, like the sea breeze, could soothe all the negative emotions in people's hearts.
But for the audience, the singing was a pleasure; for the Trench Monster, it was unbearable pain.
The trench monsters, which had originally jumped ashore dressed in black, now jumped into the sea like dumplings being dropped into a pot, and after a while, they all disappeared into the sea.
"What happened?"
In a flash, The Flash appeared beside Xu Fu, took off his bandana, and Superman and the others also gathered around.
Arthur Curry's gaze fell on the sea.
A mass of seawater, like an elevator, carried a woman dressed in emerald green scales.
The woman had long, deep red hair, and her face was as beautiful as a finely carved piece of jade. Her tight-fitting scales accentuated her beautiful figure.
When Shazam reached out and touched his arm, Arthur froze. "Dude, that woman looks like she's here for you. What are you doing?"
After he finished speaking, he nodded to Arthur.
"Who are you...? Have you saved us now?" Arthur Curry asked somewhat groggily, taking a few steps forward as Shazam nodded.
Chapter 384 Mira
Seeing Arthur's stunned expression, the woman suddenly burst into laughter and said in a language that everyone could understand, "My name is Mira, I am the captain of your mother's royal guard, and a princess of the Kingdom of Zebel."
With the purest noble blood, Mela can not only move around on Earth, but also speak human languages.
Atlantis was the ruler of the seven seas.
All other kingdoms were subject to the rule of Atlantis, a relationship somewhat similar to the aristocratic divisions of the central kingdom.
These nobles could have their own territories and kingdoms, but were bound by loyalty to the central kingdom.
Atlantis is a nation ruled by weapons, and the captain of the Queen's Royal Guard must be the most powerful nobleman and a representative of the younger generation. Therefore, when Mira speaks of herself in this capacity, it carries the highest honor.
Upon hearing his mother's name, Arthur Curry frowned.
"993" "My mother abandoned me when I was a baby. My father stood on the rocks by the sea every day waiting for her to come back, but he waited for more than 20 years... a full 20 years, until he died for my mother!"
Arthur's voice trembled slightly, and Xu Fu, Kara, and the others stared at him with wide eyes.
Unlike some heartwarming versions, according to Cyborg's investigation, in this universe, Arthur's father, Tom Curry, died of illness ten years ago.
Now, when he hears news about his mother, Arthur Curry, who is over 30, is unable to calm his emotions.
"Your mother eloped to the human world, where she met and fell in love with your father... but the royal family had already betrothed her to Prince Xebel. They sent people to threaten your and your father's lives, forcing your mother to return to Atlantis... to fulfill her mission. They sent your mother back to Atlantis... to fulfill her mission, but her love for you and your father never ceased!"
Mira's words struck him like a thunderbolt, and Arthur Curry shook his head incredulously. "But my father never told me any of this. He told me that my mother left us because she needed..."
"Your father doesn't want you to interfere too much... but now, Arthur Curry, you have to take responsibility. Your mother needs you; she sees our future in you!"
Mira stepped out of the sea and walked to Xu Fu and the others. "I know you. You are the Justice League, a superpower group on Earth!"
"Wow, how do you know us?" Shazam looked curiously into the beautiful lady's eyes. "Then, miss, do you know me?"
Mela's face was as cold as an ancient ice sculpture. "No, actually our information mainly comes from fishermen and sea creatures. I only recognize these two symbols."
After saying that, Mela pointed to the letter "A" on Xu Fu's armor and the letter "S" on Superman and Kara's chests.
As for Shazam and The Flash, she said she had never heard of them.
“It seems we need to get to know each other better. Hello, Ms. Myra, you can call me Avenger.”
Xu Fu extended his hand to shake hers, and Myra was taken aback. "Why are you extending your hand?"
"A handshake is a way for people to express friendship!" Arthur Curry decided to temporarily act as a bridge between the two cultures, explaining.
After hearing Arthur's explanation, Mela nodded dejectedly, then extended her hand to shake hands with Xu Fu.
"Ding! Friendship value has been upgraded to Friendly value. Character camera unlocked!"
Purple card. Myra
Race: Atlanteans
The effect of a basic card. A pure-blooded demigod, possessing powerful water magic...
Additional notes: Atlanteans have a 30% increase in combat power underwater and a 30% decrease on land.
Suddenly, a system voice announced that, without realizing that it had already won the friendship of the future Mera before even winning the friendship of Aquaman, Mera the Queen of the Sea.
Of course, Xu Fu represents the Justice League on Earth and has had some tentative exchanges with Mera between the two civilizations, so it is natural, unexpected, and reasonable for him to win the friendship of this person from the underwater world.
After shaking hands with each member and getting to know them, Mira gave everyone a brief explanation of the situation.
First, there was the submarine attack on the Atlantis submarine bridge, and then Prince Orm took the opportunity to incite public opinion and propose war.
"Impossible! No country would attack the Atlantean civilization; almost everyone considers Atlantis a legend!"
The Flash was incredulous.
While the Justice League cannot interfere with decisions made by the top leadership of the United States, they are permitted to intervene as security advisors to the United Nations, investigating certain war-related issues.
“Yes, Ms. Mela, we will not provoke civilization ourselves unless… it is intentional!” Xu Fu said.
In fact, both Mela and the Queen of Atlantis could guess that it was Om who did it, but Mela, being a noble person, would never accuse the royal prince without evidence.
She smiled and said, "The Queen felt the same way, so she suggested that Arthur return to Atlantis. If possible, she hoped that he would become the King of Atlantis, lead the people of Atlantis, and build a peaceful bridge with the civilization of Earth."
"Hey bro, I really envy someone like you, having a throne to inherit at home!"
Shazam listened with excitement because he grew up in a poor neighborhood and loved hearing stories of how the ugly duckling became a swan and how Cinderella became a princess.
However, upon hearing these words, Arthur took a step back and shook his head. "No, Mela, I am just the son of a lighthouse keeper. I am neither a nobleman nor a king!"
However, Meera disagreed: "Arthur, the Queen needs a beacon, and the people of Atlantis also need a beacon to guide them!"
Superman and Kara interpreted these words in their own way: "Brother, Kara and I are the last survivors on our planet. If there's a chance to save my world, I'm willing to do anything... at least for my mother and my kind!"
"Yes, Your Majesty... I wish to see you!"
Mera's last words shattered Arthur Curry's last psychological defenses. Arthur sighed and nodded, "Okay!"
“You’ve made a very wise decision, all of you in the Justice League… The Queen also wants to speak with you, for the sake of peace,” Mira earnestly invited.
These words made life very difficult for The Flash and Shazam.
“Tell me, do you have submarines? We can’t breathe underwater like you Atlanteans.” The Flash and Shazam can’t breathe underwater.
With the help of his magic, Shazam might not die without breathing, but it would be extremely difficult. As for the Flash, drowning would actually be fatal for him.
The trio, Xu Fu and Superman Kara, said, "Don't worry about us, we can adapt to an oxygen-free environment."
Chapter 385 Black Manta
The capital of Atlantis.
A black, single-seat deep-sea vessel sailed past the entrance gate of the Atlantis Prince's Palace.
In the center of the prince's palace, Orm saw a warrior dressed in black armor.
But he knew that the armor was not worn by an Atlantean, but by an Earth bandit from the deep sea.
Dispersing everyone around, Prince Orm approached the man and asked, "Black Manta, is it done?"
“No, your half-brother is still alive. He is currently accompanied by three members of the Earth Justice League, and they are traveling to Atlantis with Mira!” Black Manta replied calmly.
Upon hearing this answer, Prince Orm's face darkened instantly. He angrily said, "Why can't we even handle one bastard? Tens of thousands of monsters from the trenches, plus a few well-equipped and well-trained soldiers..."
“No offense intended, Your Highness. Your soldiers’ equipment is far from excellent, and in fact… their armor is inferior to that of the Justice League warriors!” Blackman said calmly.
A murderous glint flashed in Prince Orm's eyes. He said coldly, "This is the best equipment I could get. I'm just a prince, not a king... Wait, are you wearing your modified equipment...?"
A deep-sea pirate lay on the ground before him, wearing modified armor provided by Prince Orm.
This armor is old-fashioned, salvaged from the Royal Guard's equipment, and offers very limited enhancement in terms of personal strength. Therefore, Prince Orm could easily acquire several pieces to equip a private army.
However, when he looked at Black Knight's equipment again today, he found that it was very different from the past.
Especially the helmet, which was originally very small, now looks like a big-headed doll covered by two blood-red glass caps.
Hemanda made no attempt to hide anything: "I know a big shot on Earth who helped me modify my mecha. This mecha is at least five times more powerful than the original. Even against a forbidden ace, I'm confident I can fight!"
"Looks like you've met a philanthropist!"
Om grinned, flexed his wrists, and began trying on the modified Black Manta armor with his eyes darting around.
Just then, the hall doors opened, and a female warrior clad in white scale armor entered to report, "Your Highness Orm, Her Majesty the Queen has arrived!"
Upon hearing this, Om stared at Black Mandolin in disbelief.
The black manta ray picked itself up and silently retreated.
The gates opened fully, and the Queen of Atlantis, wielding a golden trident, entered the hall with the vice-captain of the Royal Guard.
Upon seeing Orm, Atlana sighed, "Orm, I think you already know you have a brother..."
“No, he is not my brother, Mother. You should know that the Atlanteans care about bloodlines. I do not acknowledge such a brother, nor do the Atlanteans!”
Orm became excited at the mention of Arthur Curry, and Atlanna tried to persuade her son, "Orm, your brother can connect the civilizations of Atlantis and Earth..."
