Chapter 271: The Exposure of True Purpose

"Mother box, Your Highness Beckett."

"Two mother boxes have appeared in Gotham."

"Right on this door."

Woz slid his finger over the image on the light screen, and the bronze gate floating above Gotham City immediately greeted Beckett's eyes.

Mysterious and ancient symbols are carved into the gate, and Beckett's longing mother box is embedded above.

Or two.

"What's going on?"

Beckett sat up straight and took his gaze back from Mera, who had ascended the throne in the distance.

The mother box is directly related to whether he can go home or not, and the stakes are very high.

"Waz is sorting out and analyzing the information, please wait for His Highness Beckett."

There was a stream of data in the blue robot cat's eyes, and in an instant, a series of major events that happened in Gotham City had completely appeared in front of Beckett's eyes.

From the time Steppenwolf appeared in Gotham, to the legions of winged monsters that began to attack humanity and expand their ranks, everything was in front of Beckett.

Darkseid............ Wads, will you be able to analyze Darkseid's strength stats through this video? ”

With just a finger of the void, Diana, the Amazon demigod who jumped into the sky, was seriously injured and fell to the ground.

"Unfortunately, no, His Highness Beckett."

"Wads didn't have the means to build an accurate data model for evaluation."

"What about these two mother boxes?"

"Can I remove it?"

If the phantom named Darkseid only made Beckett extremely concerned, then the two mother boxes on the bronze door above Gotham made Beckett "red-eyed".

To open the passage that will allow him to go home, three mother boxes are required. And now there are two in the sky over Gotham, if he takes the mother box in the Sea Clan Holy Land again............

What did he do with Mera for so long?

Isn't it to be able to make sure that Mera won't be captured by Steppenwolf without knowing the exact location of the rest of the mother boxes?

Now that he has the specific location of the two mother boxes, then he obviously doesn't need to continue to follow Mera, he can directly force and snatch it.

"Without a physical scan, Woz couldn't make an inference about His Highness Beckett."

Woz, who understood Beckett's mood, shook his head and said with a cautious expression.

It can't risk Beckett's life.

The bronze door looked like it had been put out by Darkseid's own hands, and it didn't know what the restrictions were.

"Then get ready for a physical scan."

Beckett put an end to Woz's dissuasion.

No one could stand in his way home.

No one.

Not even the mysterious Darkseid.

Beckett's eyes were extremely determined, and in the next second, the figure had disappeared in place.

"From now on, put an end to all preparations for war on land."

"In the name of the new Queen of the Seas."

Where the queen ascended the throne, Mera on the throne held a golden trident and gave her first order after becoming the co-lord of the seven seas.

Sure enough...... King Zebel's eyes were full of bitterness.

The righteous name of the Golden Trident was recognized by all members of the Sea Clan, and even if he was unwilling, he could not oppose it.

Unless he wants to start a rebellion.

However, if he rebels, how many people can obey his command?

Nereus looked around vaguely, everyone seemed to him to have evil intentions and were not worthy of his trust.

Former allies have become vulnerable in the face of the golden trident.

The weapons used by the original Atlantean kings to pacify the seven seas and even defeat powerful enemies beyond the heavens are a belief for the members of the Sea Clan, who are now becoming weaker and weaker.

Faith is rooted in the bones.

"Father? Father. ”

Mera's call brought Nereus back to his senses, and his daughter, with her shining crown, was both strange and comforting.

At the end of the day, Mera is still his daughter.

Even if his daughter's political views are contrary to him.

"Mera, I-"

Boom!

On the immaculate steps like white jade, a figure descended like lightning, interrupting the whirling words of Nereus's mouth.

Splashes of debris swept past the swaying black hair, and the cold pupils sent chills down Nereus's heart.

"Beckett!"

"Why are you here?" Mae Ra on the throne looked surprised, and hurriedly stood up and walked down the steps.

She had always wanted to invite Beckett to her enthronement ceremony, but Beckett's refusal made her feel regretful all the time.

It was Beckett who transformed her mind, but Beckett was ultimately absent from the celebration of her accession to the throne.

"Tell me where the mother box is, Mera."

Beckett's words made the expression on Nereus's face change suddenly.

"What? Where is the mother box located? What happened to Beckett? ”

Beckett's coldness made Mera can't help but start a bad association.

"Nothing, I need it, that's all."

Beckett, who had already seen the two mother boxes over Gotham, naturally had no need to hide his purpose, and said succinctly and clearly that I just wanted it.

“???”

"I'm afraid not, Beckett. In fact, before you and Mae La returned, the Mother Box placed in the Sea Clan's Holy Land had already been taken away. All the guards guarding the mother box were killed, under the butcher's knife of the intruder. ”

Nereus coughed twice and told the truth.

He originally planned to wait for Mae ** Ji to tell her about this later.

"What did you say?"

Under Mera's puzzled gaze, Beckett's gaze grew colder.

"Wait, Beckett."

"You want a mother box, right?"

"If I heard me right, you want the mother box?"

Mera quickly tipped over what had happened in her mind and asked.

"Why?"

"The power of the mother box is very dangerous—"

Sou!

The roaring sound wave caused the top leaders of the underwater world to stagger, but Mera alone stood tall with the power of the golden trident.

"Tell me where the mother box is, now."

Believing that seeing is believing, Beckett locked Nereus's throat.

"Beckett!" Mera exclaimed.

"Shut up!" Beckett snapped back and scolded.

"Tell me the location, now. Otherwise you will die. ”

The cold Becket was strange to Mera at the moment, especially when he was holding Neros by the neck.

"I ...... I understand...... Got it............"

Nereus, who was gradually struggling to breathe, nodded decisively.

He didn't know what madness was going on with the man his daughter had brought back, but at the very least, he didn't feel that it was an honorable thing to give his life for a Sea Clan Holy Land that had been robbed.

And when Becket dragged Nereus to the ruins of the messy holy land, his face suddenly gloomy.

"Your Highness Beckett, judging from the remaining energy force field, it should be Steppenwolf who stormed in."

Woz's tone was also wrong.

It miscalculated.

Steppenwolf apparently did not capture Mera to obtain the location of the Sea Clan's Mother Box.

So how did Steppenwolf know?

"It's not me! It is absolutely impossible for us to sell the location of the mother box, as long as the mother box is still there. ”

"Believe me, the intruder with the axe is like he already knows about it, and his purpose is clear."

Under the pressure of Beckett's gaze, the high-ranking people of the Sea Clan shook their heads to show their innocence.

They have always followed the old precepts, otherwise they would not have recognized Mera as queen so easily.

Moreover, the holy places where the mother box is placed are all rotated, and no one can know the specific location of the mother box except for the guardian of the mother box on duty.

That's why Woz kept Beckett on Mera all the time.

"Damn."

Beckett casually threw Neros to the ground, and turned around to meet Mera's slightly complicated gaze.

"Beckett—"

Sou!

Before Mera could finish speaking, Beckett's figure had disappeared.
