Chapter 184: Your Death is the opening ceremony of this war
"Sure enough, as the bald man said, you are trying to dive into the metropolis from the bottom of the sea, what a bunch of guys who don't know the height of the sky."
The black manta ray's big red eyes stared at Red, looking particularly eerie in the dim ocean floor. Behind him, countless fish-headed humans, eerie creatures resembling the deep divers of the Cthulhu mythos, emitted a scalp-tingling grinding sound.
These monsters, called the Trench Clan, were originally also a member of Atlantis, but unlike other Atlantean branches, the Trench Clan lived in a place that had not seen the light of day for a long time, so their bodies had mutated and distorted over the years, and their spirits had also degenerated into brutal beasts.
Obviously, these Trench Clans are now under the control of the Black Manta Rays and are members of the Secret Society of the Super Villains.
Facing the trench clan that surrounded him, Red didn't seem to react, just looked at the black manta ray in front of him with interest.
"Black Manta Ray, I don't think you have a reason to die for Darkseid. You became the villain because you wanted to get revenge on Aquaman Arthur Curry, but now that he's dead, shouldn't you join other superheroes in fighting to protect the world? ”
"Hmph, you don't understand my thoughts at all...... Aquaman Arthur Curry is my prey and my goal in life. Since someone has snatched the opportunity to kill him from me, he has become my new prey. ”
Although the black manta ray's voice was calm and cold, Red could feel the madness and violence in it.
"Libra and I agreed that he would put the bastard who killed Aquaman, Red Douglas, at my disposal, and for that reason I wouldn't mind helping him deal with some rats who shouldn't have come to the Met......"
"Moreover, if I can get the woman that Aquaman once loved, and the trident, it can also bring me some fun."
"I see, I kind of get it—no wonder Luthor sent you here to stop me."
Black Manta is actually not very evil, he is just a paranoid who is completely obsessed with Aquaman, and everything he does is to avenge Aquaman for not saving him before......
Yes, it's just because Aquaman didn't have time to be a hero, which became a reason for him to hate the Sea King and make a mortal enmity for it.
From Red's point of view.
This guy is simply mentally ill.
"If you're just a wicked person, maybe you have some distorted ideals, or strange ambitions. There's still a chance to cooperate, but if you're just a low-level paranoid, you'll only be a sacrifice. ”
Red raised his hand, and Mjörnir instantly appeared in his hand, and the dazzling thunder light illuminated the bottom of the sea as bright as day.
Airplanes!
The eyes on the Black Manta Ray's helmet emitted a red laser shot at Red, who quickly turned into a dazzling white afterimage, dodging the high-temperature laser and quickly charging at the Black Manta Ray.
Raptors cut the air!
However, the Black Manta Ray reacted very quickly, and he pulled out his twin knives from behind him and held them in front of him, blocking Red's slash with a clatter, and retreating with his strength.
"All up together and tear him to shreds!"
Amidst a creepy croaking of creepy screams, an endless stream of Trench Clans rushed towards Red with strangely shaped weapons, intending to drown him out with a sea of people-fish sea tactics.
But in the next second, a dazzling ring of white light spread around, and the sword qi that drew the sword and slashed instantly cut these trench clans into two pieces.
Black Manta realized that he had completely underestimated his opponent, and his first instinct was to contact the secret society to ask for reinforcements, after all, this place is located off the coast of the metropolis, and it stands to reason that he will be able to summon it soon-
However, he found that all means of communication were offline.
"Don't try, don't you understand, the one who really wants you to die...... It's Lex Luthor. ”
Red used the Army-Breaking Dragon Strike to make a bloody way out of the Trench Clan and rushed in front of the Black Manta Ray.
Sneaking into the metropolis through the water passage, since Barbara and the Justice League can think of this method, then there is no reason not to know the super villain secret society under the command of Libra, you must know that the most important thing in this organization is smart people, and the villains of the DC world are all talents.
Therefore, if it is a normal situation, after Red and the others dive into the sewers of the metropolis, it is estimated that they will face endless traps and encirclements, and if these trench people are in the sewers, it will seriously affect the speed of Red's movements.
But now, it would be different if the Black Manta Ray brought them all out and let Red catch them all.
And there is no need to worry about the Black Manta Ray not being successful, Luthor only needs to pretend to be inadvertently revealing to the Black Manta that the person transporting them is Mera with the Sea King Trident, and the Black Manta Ray must not be able to help but lead the troops into battle in person.
This paranoid person who is morbidly obsessed with Aquaman cannot let go of this opportunity.
"Damn, how could it be-"
The black manta ray was full of firepower, and more than a dozen torpedo missiles were launched at the same time from his shoulder and arm, but Red summoned a nano sword in his other hand, and the phantom sword dance stirred the sea water, and the white sword qi completely submerged and devoured the black manta ray.
"Your death is the opening ceremony of this war."
——
Metropolis, Lex Group Underground Laboratory.
"Your friend seems to have reached the offshore shore and should soon be in the Metropolis, and of course, it is also possible that he will be the dinner of the fish-headed monsters under the Black Manta Ray."
When Luthor walked into the basement, a middle-aged man with unshaven beard and gray hair was wearing an electric welding mask and holding a welding torch that seemed to be making some kind of metal device.
He didn't respond to Luther's words, and his hand movements remained steady, and it wasn't until he finished his work that he took off his mask and smiled meaningfully.
"You're not very well-informed, Luther, the latest news I've received is that Black Manta and his fish-man boys have been turned into ocean trash."
Ivanko glanced at the lamp ring in his hand, then picked up what he had just made and blew on it, held it up and looked at Lex Luthor.
"Did you bring me what I wanted?"
Luthor's eyes narrowed slightly, but he tossed what he was carrying to Ivan, who caught it steadily—it was a bottle of Russian vodka.
"Now in this world, it's not easy to help you get this bottle of wine."
"Hmph, trust me, it's the best deal you've ever made in your life."
Ivan tossed the finished object to Luther, who caught it, and it was a circular contraption with a triangular glare of white light in the center.
Luther, a genius with great achievements in mechanical engineering, immediately turned serious when he saw the design of this thing.
"That's what you say ......"
"Small Ark reactor, and an improved version - it's up to you to make the most of its energy."
"Hmph, who do you think I am? I'm the smartest human on the planet. ”
Luthor picked up the Ark reactor with a confident and arrogant smile on his face.
"Now, it's my turn to be the hero who saves the world."
