"How's the situation on Aquaman's side?"

Chen Tao walked briskly down the hallway, followed by Martian Manhunter. Strictly speaking, although he is walking quickly now, it is actually an act of delaying time, because if he is really in a hurry, he will already fly directly from the window to the other party.

He was about to go to see Mela, the wife of Arthur the King of Aquaman, and he didn't dare to tell the other party that he had been busy with the affairs of the Green Lantern Corps during this time, and he didn't know anything about the disappearance of her husband Arthur the King of Aquaman, and he didn't follow up at all, so he could only delay for a while, and then ask the Martian Mankey to urgently tell him what the situation was now.

"Diana organized the staff." Martian Manhunter said: "During your absence, based on our dozens of hours of tracking, we finally found that Aquaman, who was directly separated from the battlefield at that time, was completely running towards the coastline. ”

"Can he still find a way out of that state?"

"He smashed the building with his superhuman body, and physically penetrated the wall purely by relying on his iron head, and even the load-bearing wall of the building was knocked out of a human-shaped hole, and single-handedly turned hundreds of houses along the way into dangerous houses, and the bill has been included in the Justice League's accounting last quarter, and we have compensated about ......"

"Getting to the point." Chen Tao interrupted him: "Money is not a problem. I remember last time Lucius told me that the Wayne Group had recently been in real estate with the Lex Group. ”

"Anyway he ended up on the shore and jumped into the Pacific Ocean, and after that we lost all traces of Arthur. Diana found the tracking system for each member of our League that you left behind in an emergency in the Justice League's computer, and you left her permission—"

"Ahem, I'm giving each of you trackers just to prevent an emergency."

“…… I didn't say anything. ”

“…… Well, also when I didn't say anything. Please continue. ”

"We eventually found out that he swam into the Mariana Trench."

"That's the largest ocean trench in the world."

"That's right, in the northeastern part of the Philippines, near the Mariana Islands, where the marine environment is extreme, with high water pressure, complete darkness and low temperatures, it is one of the harshest areas on earth." Martian continued, "Then Aquaman swooped in, a forbidden territory that even the Atlanteans could not tread. ”

"The Justice League organized several exploration operations, and in order to prevent misunderstandings on the part of Atlantis, we did not work with them, but with Mela. You know her ......."

"Aquaman's lover, are they married now?"

"There's no wedding yet, but it's coming. Anyway, with the help of Mela's water-controlling magic, we were able to dive to the bottom of the trench and encounter a large group of trench people, a frog-like race with sharp fangs that could tear through steel. The submarine is attacked by them, and Mela uses water control magic to kill some, but in vain. We had to give up. ”

"Later, we organized several more dives to explore, but we still couldn't find any trace of Aquaman. It's so dark and big, I mean if Aquaman doesn't want us to find him, we'll never find him for the rest of our lives. ”

Martian Manhunter said, and then he added:

Of course, this may seem a little too unfair to Mela, and I will not say it in front of her. She is a good woman, she has been campaigning for Arthur's affairs, even though Arthur is now temporarily missing, she is still pushing for things about the establishment of diplomatic relations between Atlantis and the government, she has always felt that Arthur is only temporarily absent, and she can't interrupt Arthur's half-done things......"

"But with all due respect, without Arthur, no matter how much propaganda Mela did and how many landers thought of the Atlanteans, even if we would have helped to get the government people done with her...... The Atlanteans would not follow her orders either. Although Arthur Curry is not the king of Atlantis, he is the son of the previous king of Atlantis, and he has royal blood in his body.

Although he did not officially inherit the throne, he had been in the stage of prince regency until then, whether it was the commander Mook or the regent Tula, these powerful figures among the Atlanteans were staunch supporters of Arthur, they were staunch royalists, and would support Arthur's decisions even if they did not approve of them. But if you throw aside Arthur's influence on them, these people are a bunch of outright conservatives, resting on their laurels, stinky and hard. I'm afraid I have to tell you, Batman ......"

Martian Manhunter said in a deep voice, "I am tasked with communicating between the Justice League and the U.S. government. But now the relationship between Atlantis and the government is very tense, and even the Justice League cannot mediate. The Atlanteans didn't listen to the Justice League. The impact of Arthur's disappearance is profound and significant, and we need Arthur, even if we dig three feet into the ground, we have to find him. ”

Martian Manhunter said, "Before you returned, due to repeated failed attempts to dive into the trench, I had asked Flash and Lucius to help build a submarine that could be accelerated using the speed force, although only if Flash acted as a hamster in it to generate electricity." Now that you're back, and you've brought back Hal, it's just right that you're building a shield with green light energy outside the submarine, and we're not afraid of the Trench Clan's attack. ”

Then Martian Manhunter paused, and then said in an affirmative tone:

"Even though the tracking method that Diana found in the Justice League computer system for Arthur has failed under the huge water pressure of tens of thousands of meters of ocean floor, I think you must have hidden your own means to track him, right?"

Chen Tao turned his head sideways: "I won't put that kind of tracking method on my teammates." ”

Martian Manhunter gave a Batman-esque look of disapproval.

Chen Tao didn't speak.

As they walked, they were almost to the Justice League's reception hall.

“…… Well, that's right. Chen Tao finally raised his hands and admitted this.

After the general situation was understood, Chen Tao crossed the Martian Manhunter, took the lead, and walked directly towards the hall. And when he turned his back to the Martian Manhunter, Chen Tao frowned, revealing a contemplative look.

The Martian Manhunter said that the problem is indeed somewhat serious. Many people will think that Aquaman Arthur Curry is the least valued character in the Justice League, and even give him nicknames like Talking to the Fish, but many people actually forget that in a certain timeline, the war between Atlantis and Paradise Island almost destroyed the world.

Chen Tao has been supporting Aquaman Arthur's plan to make Atlantis truly establish diplomatic relations with humans, and at the beginning of the establishment of the Justice League, he even deliberately recruited Aquaman Arthur Curry, for this-

He plans to help Aquaman subdue the Atlanteans, and then keep brushing up the Atlanteans' favorability, with the final goal of pulling all the Atlanteans over as batteries.

Forehead...... It may sound like a villain, but the Atlanteans are a real group of supermen, and even the most ordinary Atlanteans can outwhelm the strongest athletes in the human race with their physical fitness and strength, not including the Olympic gold medalist or the javelin captain.

Not only when he knew that he was going to face the anti-monitors, but since he found out that someone could help him share his power by means like pulling fiber, Chen Tao was consciously looking for targets to help him share his power, and Aquaman and Atlanteans were potential living battery targets that he had begun to prepare early.

Chen Tao didn't think about using ordinary people as batteries, but in the end, he quickly came to the conclusion that this was impossible. Because the time they can bear is too short, the killer crocodile can help pull people down on the spot, but once there are more people, such an operation is inevitably impossible to take care of.

Chen Tao could never have caused casualties, so the nature of the search for a living battery would change. The operation of using ordinary people as batteries is not without villains who have also done it, but they don't care if you live or die, take it to charge it to achieve your goals, and finally count your life and death. Anyway, ordinary people in the DC world are like leeks, and they will all be resurrected when the timeline is restarted, but it is impossible for Chen Tao to do such a thing.

The Atlanteans are different, and having millions of Atlanteans to help share it is definitely a huge help. Chen Tao couldn't let the fruit he had prepared in advance unusable due to an accident or some other reason.

"You've prepared well, Jon." Chen Tao opened his mouth and said: "Arthur's matter can't be delayed any longer, now that I finally have time to free my hands, I must deal with this matter urgently." Let's get ready, we're going to find Arthur in the trench, and we're going to see people in life and corpses in death. ”

Martian Manchurd nodded, and Chen Tao took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

The next thing he has to face is the queen of the sea who has lost her boyfriend, Chen Tao frowned, and at the same time planned to send a message to the rest of the Justice League, asking them all to come to the reception hall, and then they brainstormed a plan to save people, Martian Manhunter has already used the speed submarine it built with Barry, Chen Tao went to contact Hal, and then they set off, to ......

Chen Tao opened the door.

He saw the queen of the sea sitting on the sofa in the living room, with an anxious look on her face.

Mela is a young woman in her mid-20s, with burgundy hair and a dress of blue scales. Her face looked a little harsh, and she looked like a very difficult woman to mess with, but at this time, her face was full of sorrow and confusion, and the fierceness on this face was swept away, and I seemed to feel pity.

Chen Tao pondered for a moment: "I think you are Meila, don't worry, the Justice League is fully prepared to save Arthur, I am back now, and I will be able to ...... soon"

But his words were quickly interrupted by the queen of the sea.

Chen Tao heard some strange voices from the queen of the sea: "Batman, I came to you this time, not to urge Justice to find Arthur. Maybe it's hard to talk about, but I have to tell you...... Arthur found it. ”

Chen Tao: "? ”

"Isn't that a good thing?" "What's wrong with that?" he said. Then he asked, "Hmm...... Wait, if he comes back, why are you still coming to the Alliance Headquarters? Is there something wrong? ”

"He's gone home on his own," Mehra said, "but his situation is a little complicated now." Arthur was sick, very sick. Can you come and see him alone? ”

A little more than 20 minutes later, Aquaman Arthur's home in Port Mercy.

"I don't quite understand why you can't let the Justice League be with you." Chen Tao followed behind Mei La, closed the door of the house casually, and said, "If Arthur really comes back, shouldn't this be a good thing?" Jon is still looking for Arthur's submarine, I just told him not to look for it, now ......"

Chen Tao said half of his words, and then stopped abruptly.

For he saw a sturdy human body with a fish's head on top of it, sitting on the couch in the room. The fish-headed monster was naked, with a bunch of fangs in its mouth.

It's a real fish head, it looks like a carp or something, Chen Tao doesn't know much about fish, but this is too outrageous, what kind of monster is this??? Chen Tao has not seen the shark king, although the other party is also a monster with a fish head, but the other party at least looks more like a shark with long hands and feet.

But this thing in front of him, his body is still a human body, and his head suddenly turns into a fish, which seems too weird. Chen Tao almost jumped up: "What, what about Arthur?" ”

He stared at the ghost beast that seemed to have been cut directly from the head of a live fish by some being, and then enlarged, and violently grafted onto a human body, the silver-white particles flashed on his body, and the extremely fast bullets were already synchronized on his body, almost attacking the live fish-headed monster: "What are you?" ”

"Bo Bo ......" The fish-headed monster also jumped up from the sofa, and gestured to Chen Tao in a very anxious manner, but Chen Tao couldn't understand half a sentence. Seeing that Chen Tao didn't understand, the fish-headed monster was even more anxious, he kept opening and closing the fish's mouth, as if vomiting, and spit out a large string of bubbles at Chen Tao, which fell on the floor of the living room, and then the fish-headed monster also realized this, and hurriedly tried to close his mouth, but failed, Chen Tao wanted to do something to him, first catch this monster and then figure out what happened, so it suddenly became a mess.

It wasn't until Mei La blocked in front of him that Chen Tao finally figured out the situation...... This guy is Arthur, and now his situation seems to be a little different from what Chen Tao imagined.

His head has completely turned into the appearance of a fish, what Chen Tao means is that he has the head of a fish, and he has truly become a fish man!
