After an unpleasant conversation with her sister Silver Fox, the White Queen departs for Poseidonia, the capital of Atlantis.

As a member of the Hellfire Club and a compatriot of King Namor, she was given a shuttle-shaped flying boat that only robed nobles could ride, allowing her to come and go freely under the depths of the sea.

"Like Shaw said, the situation is tense. When Atlantis and the land world officially go to war and consume each other, the mutants will be able to reap the benefits. ”

The shuttle flew a wave and bypassed the complex underwater terrain, and after more than two hours, arrived at the royal city of Poseidonia.

The White Queen slowly slowed down and was inspected by the patrol guards.

Through the semicircular window of the cockpit, she saw a large number of sea creatures gathering in a strange orderly procession.

The king of Atlantis, nominally the ruler of the four seas and the lord of the seven seas.

At the stroke of an order, a huge army of millions, tens of millions can be summoned - this is not an exaggeration.

"The land world is not united, like the palm of an open hand, but Atlantis is like a clenched fist, and the power is concentrated in one place."

The White Queen remembered Sebastian Shaw's words with some emotion.

The blue planet that is home to life has an ocean area far larger than the land.

Covering about 70 percent of the earth's surface, the vast body of water is home to an incalculable number of marine life.

After the sinking of Atlantis, the population plummeted by two-thirds, and it took 10,000 years of development before it returned to normal levels.

The army they have at their disposal is actually not very large, and the so-called numerical superiority relies more on driving sea creatures.

Living in the deep sea for many years has allowed the Atlanteans to evolve underwater breathing and night vision.

They are naturally friendly to sea creatures, and have an affinity aura of +10 charm.

Those who are gifted can also communicate and ride with them, become "knights of the seas", and join the King's Guard in Poseidonia.

Not only that, but the White Queen also learned that the collapse of Atlantis had scattered many city-states into tribal settlements.

For example, killer whales, seahorses, hammerheads, and so on.

These sea tribes, after several wars, now also recognized the rulership of Atlantis and obeyed the king's orders.

"Can one man resist a nation, an army?"

The White Queen shook her head, it was precisely because she could not see the possibility of victory in the land world that she would take the risk of contacting her sister who was in S.H.I.E.L.D., hoping that the other party would leave the center of the vortex.

Sebastian Shaw has been gathering his compatriots and members of the Hellfire Club at an unprecedented rate lately.

The other party also desperately instilled extreme racial rhetoric into the young mutants who joined in.

It's almost like changing a few keywords from the theory of the Third Reich and then using it.

This worries the White Queen, who has never been in favor of such extreme acts as genocide and genocide.

"I hope it doesn't come that far."

Arriving at the tarmac in the western side of Poseidonia, the White Queen puts on a quirky helmet with a breathing device and opens the hatch and walks down.

"Shaw, he wants to see you."

A whistling young man with dyed red hair, also dressed in a waterproof suit and wearing the breathing apparatus that landed only people need.

"Nova", a young mutant who can manipulate fire.

The White Queen glanced at the other party and frowned slightly.

Her instincts told her that something seemed wrong with the atmosphere.

When I see myself, the attitude of these newcomers should be more respectful.

In the Hellfire Club, the core members are named after chess pieces.

For example, she is the "Queen" and Sebastian Shaw is the "King".

A hairy boy like Nova doesn't even have the qualifications to become a pawn.

How dare you use that frivolous tone just now to talk to yourself!

"What's the matter?"

The White Queen asked rhetorically.

"I went out for a spin and was a little tired. If it's not something important, I'll talk about it later. ”

"I don't know. Shaw told you to go over as soon as possible, don't keep him waiting. ”

The red-haired kid Nova pursed his lips and said with a playful smile.

The other party's answer made the White Queen even more suspicious.

She doesn't have the ethics of a bald professor, and she doesn't mind reading other people's minds and invading their minds.

"Where's Emma?"

"Everyone stays in Atlantis during this time, don't run around, and avoid revealing your location!"

"Nova, you go to the tarmac and keep guard! When Emma comes back, let her come to me! ”

"Humph! She's too headstrong sometimes! ”

“……”

The White Queen withdrew her gaze and withdrew from the spirit world of the nova.

Her instincts told her that something more serious was possible.

But by reading Nova's mind, nothing unusual was found.

"Forget it, let's go see Xiao directly."

The White Queen was too lazy to think about it, her status at the Hellfire Club was transcendent.

Except for Sebastian Shaw, who relies on a metal helmet that insulates spirits, and is immune to his abilities.

Most of the other mutants will not be opponents of psychic abilities.

"Nova said you had something to do with me?"

The White Queen strode into a sprawling golden dormitory, and Namor trusted Sebastian Shaw more and more, almost as if he were a life coach.

This made many of Atlantis' higher-ups unhappy, believing that the king had betrayed his people and thrown himself into the arms of mutants.

"Where have you been?"

Sebastian frowned, his tone a little gloomy.

"War is imminent, it's better not to run around, in case Superman discovers the location of Atlantis, who knows if he will come to a surprise attack."

"Went out for a spin. It's so depressing here, I can't breathe smoothly when I wear this thing all day. ”

The White Queen tapped on the breathing helmet on her head and replied casually.

At a very young age, she learned the skill of lying.

"Next time, pay attention, the closer we get to success, the more cautious we have to be."

Sebastian's attitude softened and continued: "By the way, I heard that you also have a sister, and she is also a mutant. ”

"Any compatriot is welcome at the Hellfire Club, and you can invite her in. Next, the land world will not be very safe, and it will be plunged into a series of wars. ”

"I, I will."

The White Queen's eyes flickered, and she felt that Sebastian Portrait knew something.

But I didn't tell anyone about today's meeting.

"Emma, we're all your family."

Sebastian's voice is soft and shows a gracious attitude.

"Maybe there is no blood relationship, but we have a deeper bond, the same identity, the same gene, this is the imprint engraved in the body that cannot be erased."

The White Queen seemed to be moved, and her beautiful eyes shimmered, as if they were full of tears.

"I've always been grateful to you, Shaw. It was you who brought me out of my ordinary life and let me appreciate more wonderful scenery. ”

Sebastian was quite pleased with this answer, and the White Queen was a mutant he valued very much.

Without the other party, it is equivalent to losing the means to control Namor.

Ten minutes later, the two ended their conversation.

The White Queen strode away from the dormitory with a cold look in her eyes.

Observing words and feelings, and guessing ideas, is like instinct for those who have the ability to have a mind.

She could see that Sebastian Shaw was playing the emotional card.

As for why you want to do this, it's likely that you want to stabilize yourself.

"Even if he knew that I had a sister who joined S.H.I.E.L.D., it wouldn't prove anything. Do I need to question my loyalty to the Hellfire Club? ”

The White Queen was deeply puzzled, she knew Sebastian Shaw well, and the other party was the same kind of person as her father.

Selfish, calculating, and will never easily give up valuable chess pieces.

Just like before, he would rather sacrifice the rapids to save Namor.

It's not that Sebastian Shaw has any ulterior feelings for Namor.

It's just that because the other party is still useful, you can't throw it away for the time being.

It's a very simple multiple-choice question, and everything is based on interests.

"I hope Shaw doesn't let me down."

The White Queen thought.

"Woman...... It's unbelievable! ”

Sebastian Shaw paced alone in the dormitory, a sneer on her lips.

"If it weren't for the cooperation with Hydra, how would I know that there is a traitor in the Hellfire Club!"

The efficiency of S.H.I.E.L.D. was quite high, and the photos of the White Queen and her sister Silver Fox meeting, as well as the classified documents, were quickly leaked to Soviet spies.

Then from the hands of the spy, it was passed to the agents of the Leviathan Red House, and finally Hydra learned about it and gave it to Sebastian Shaw as a gift.

As the saying goes, who in the world doesn't know the hydra!

Even within S.H.I.E.L.D., there must be some nails lurking in ambush.

After all, in the previous "Paperclip Project", the United States absorbed a large number of Na scientists, including a large number of rocket technology experts and senior researchers.

In the same way, S.H.I.E.L.D. recruited many of the remnants of Hydra.

Among them, there must have been a lot of spies infiltrated.

Luke knew this, but did not thoroughly investigate it, and deliberately ignored it.

Anyway, they are all leeks, and it is not time and effort to harvest them when they grow better.

This time, thanks to them, Sebastian Shaw was able to get the news faster.

"You can't touch her yet, wait."

Sebastian put his hands behind his back and looked at the world map hanging on the wall.

He's got a lot of ambition and Atlantis is just the first springboard.

"Hydra, Red Skull, Third Reich...... They all failed. ”

Sebastian looked up and smiled, "But I won't." ”
