Chapter 258: Why Do You Pin Your Hopes on Others
"Tsk, it's really not sturdy at all."
With the energy after landing, the aftermath directly collapsed the entire Zebel Palace, and Beckett directly wrapped around Mera's waist.
The latter, who was stunned, realized what Beckett had done.
"Bei...... Beckett ........."
Mera watched as the royal palace where she had lived since she had grown up collapsed and was reduced to ruins in an instant.
"What's the matter, didn't you call me?"
Mera's safety is at stake for the mother box that will allow him to go home, so he naturally wants to change into a super race to show his sincerity.
He wants to put an end to all possible accidents.
"Mera !!!!"
Nereus was really going mad.
This Zebel's royal palace was built by the first King Zebel himself, and this is one of the symbols of their Zebel's royal power!
And now it's ruined???
Or ruined under the nose of him, King Zebel!
And the person who destroyed it was actually his daughter who called it!
"Shut up."
The cold eyes as cold as knives instantly forced into Nereus's heart, and the monstrous killing intent suddenly rose from Beckett's body, surging towards the angry Nereus like a tide.
Rumble!
The escaping energy blasted Nereus directly into the ruins of the palace!
"Father!"
Mera's pupils shrank sharply, and words full of worry blurted out.
Although he opposes Nereus's plans to conquer humanity, he is still Mera's biological father.
"No!"
"Don't call me father!!"
"I don't have a daughter like you!!"
Airplanes!!!
The pressure of the sea increased suddenly, and the enraged Nereus walked out of the ruins with red eyes, and his gray face looked particularly embarrassed.
A good sea princess is not appropriate, she has to stand on the standpoint of human beings and be a father with him.
He thought that if he locked up his daughter for a few days, he would be able to clearly understand his position and identity by telling her about the history of the Sea Clan and the importance of attacking the land.
The result?
actually called someone to demolish his palace and beat him!
Hit him this daddy!
Why is this going to kill my father for the sake of humanity?!
If this thing is going to get out, he will not have the face of King Zebel???
"Enough! Enough is Becket! ”
"Please, get me out of here, now!"
Mera couldn't look directly into her father's eyes full of anger and questioning.
She knew who she was, but she couldn't sit back and watch her father become the leader of the war against humanity.
The Sea Tribes and humans can coexist peacefully, as Queen Atlanta herself told her.
There are no endless conquests, no senseless killings.
The land and the sea are interdependent, not vassal.
"Looks like you've got a life back."
Beckett wrapped his arms around Mera's waist and smiled at a disgraced Neros.
The sonic boom shook the foundations of Zebel's Palace!
Wow!
The choppy waves could not withstand Beckett's impact, and Beckett's shoulders, which had dispersed the energy shield after landing, were already wet with the seawater.
Even with that seemingly bad hairstyle, it looks a lot softer.
“…… Thank you, Beckett. ”
After a long silence, Mera, who stood barefoot on the soft sand, thanked Becket.
"A hundred dollars." Beckett raised his right index finger towards Mera.
Mera was stunned.
"I went to a place called London, and I ran out of a hundred dollars."
"So, don't think about it."
Beckett's intention was not to associate Mera with the mother box, but ............
"Is that so...... I understand. was interrupted by Beckett's sudden $100 payment, and the sadness in Mera's heart dissipated a lot.
Mera pulled out two standing dollars from the money bag around her waist and handed them to Beckett.
“?”
"The extra $100 will be my employment fee for you."
Mera put away her sad look, and when she thought about it, she really didn't have much time to grieve here now.
Without her, his father's plans would change, but the ultimate goal would not change.
"We must find Arthur Curry as soon as possible, and then help him find the legendary weapon that can dominate the seven seas."
Mera spoke quickly, but the problems she described puzzled Beckett.
"Arthur Curry? Why? ”
"Arthur Kuswiss, the eldest son of Queen Atlanta, has the blood of humans and sea people in his veins. If he can find that weapon and ascend to the throne of the co-lord of the seas, he will definitely be able to avoid a war between the sea people and humans. ”
Mera explained.
Arthur Curry's origins dictate that he would not have any thoughts about the human world once he ascended the throne.
"Then why don't you become king yourself?" Beckett shook off Mera's hand and said disdainfully.
“………… What the? ”
"Don't you think you're doing this ridiculously?" Beckett didn't have the idea of being a bodyguard for the garbage he couldn't even carry with a punch.
"You don't want a war between the underwater world and the human world, it's very simple, don't you just become the king of the underwater world?"
Beckett sneered, approaching the frowning Mera step by step, his tone full of mockery.
"Are you sure Arthur Curry thinks the same way you do? Don't forget, you said he was an illegitimate child, and his mother was exiled by the king of Atlantis. ”
"............" Beckett's mockery made Mera have the heart to refute but is unable to speak.
Think about it............ It seems that this is really the truth.
"No one knows what you want better than yourself, and since you are not satisfied with the current underwater world, then simply become their king and transform the entire underwater world according to your ideas."
Want to change the world?
Then go and be king.
Quite simply, Beckett didn't understand why Mera was obsessed with having to be the king of Arthur Curry.
Obviously she is from the royal family herself, why should she give up this advantage to become a vassal of Arthur Curry?
"No, but, Atlantis, no, Queen Atlanta once said to me that Arthur was-"
Disrupted by Beckett's words, Mera moved out of the Queen of Atlanta, whom she had met as a child.
The gentle woman had said that her child, Arthur Curry, was the only one who could change that.
"Fart."
Beckett scoffed at the claim.
His adoptive father, Thanos, often told him that the world would stand by his side as long as he wanted to.
As a result, he was not exiled to this strange world by Odin.
Sometimes, it's good to listen to some things, it's good to talk about them, and it's really stupid to be really stupid.
Who knows if that Atalana chose to say this because Arthur Curry is her son with her true love.
"My father once said that it was utterly foolish to put the hope of changing everything on someone else."
"Believing in your own power and dyeing the world in your own color is the mentality that a strong person should have."
"............" Mera was speechless, because what Beckett said made sense, and she couldn't find any reason to refute it at all.
If she had the weapon to dominate the seas and become a veritable queen, wouldn't her father be able to start a war?
"Perhaps, you're right, Beckett."
Mei Layan, who was [brainwashed] by Beckett's rare mouth cannon, stared at the man in front of him who still had a sarcasm on the corner of his mouth.
The sunlight behind him was a little harsh, but Mera didn't feel the slightest heat.
"I can indeed be a queen who can rely on no one. But before that, can you help me one last time? ”
"As a friend."
"I don't need friends." Beckett unexpectedly refused.
"I'll add another hundred dollars." Mera pulled the bill out of her fanny pack and approached Beckett, who was standing like a pine.
"Deal."
Until the exact location of the other two mother boxes is known, Beckett naturally won't leave Mera.
"What's wrong? Keep looking at me? Beckett, who accepted the money at Wads's suggestion, looked at the woman who was still standing motionless in front of him, and asked with a frown.
Did she discover her true purpose?
"Nope." Mera shook her head. Then he stood on tiptoe, put his hands on his shoulders, and quickly dropped a kiss on Beckett's cheek with red lips.
"You know what? I'm suddenly hating your love story with Hela. ”
????
Beckett, who was kissed on the cheek by a woman for the first time, tensed his body muscles for a moment, and the red tail wrapped around his waist unconsciously softened.
No one had ever done that before.
Even Hela, who he likes, is tearing and fighting all the way, how can he ever meet someone who takes the initiative like Mera.
[Fortunately, Wadsy says she may be dead.] 】
Mera put her hands behind her back and smiled: "This is just a ritual for our family to express their gratitude. ”
"Then, without further ado, let's go."
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Hela is not dead, she doesn't want to let go.
She's going to be the queen of the oceans, and who is Hela?
Everyone is a woman who can turn against her father for their own ideals, are you the future queen of Asgard and I am still the future queen of the sea.
Besides, she is younger and more beautiful, [fair competition] who is afraid of whom?
Anyway, Beckett can't go back, so if you have the ability, come and grab it!
I'm afraid that Hela can't even open the door to come over!
