Chapter 438: Prelude to the Throne of Atlantis: Backwater, Batman and Wonder Woman attend the event

Earth-11.

Many, many years ago.

The first time I saw a monster called Dead Water in the future......

At that time, Brucy never thought that one day, she would completely melt with this kind of monster and never separate from each other again.

The vast army of stagnant water was vomited out of her mouth, swept every living creature like a current, and then transformed them one by one, not even corpses could escape the control of the staggers.

Living, watery organisms are capable of parasitizing any host they wish to parasitize, and will change their form with the host.

They are difficult to kill, and there are many of them.

This is the reason why the drowning soul can defeat the entire Atlantean civilization by itself, and it is also ......

It is also the cause of the destruction of the world where the souls of the drowning have been drowned.

……

He began to gasp for air.

"We cleaned our little lighthouse, clean and bright. The little flame of love burns and burns, as bright as a lighthouse in the night!"

"The exchange between Atlantis and the terrestrial world."

He took his girlfriend around in the air twice and sat down on the couch together.

"It's also different from the mystery of the blue ocean. The Band Beauty, the City of Chesapeake, and the Star Music Company, released in 1965, weren't some fine art, maybe that's the point."

"Hmm...... What progress do you mean?"

"Philosophy, science, ethics, not a saliva song."

He sat on the couch in his house, holding in his arms the golden retriever he had raised with Mela. He looked up with a smile and saw his girlfriend wrapping his burgundy hair in a towel while wrapping a bath towel around him.

"Arthur, seriously...... I think it's going too fast."

"Let's sing our lighthouse minor, from the end of the world to the cape, let's sing our lighthouse minor, from tonight to the Ming Dynasty~"

But she was soon brought down again by Arthura, and Mela was no longer able to speak.

They lay together on the bed, and the two of them looked at each other.

"It's silly, I know."

"Is it this tune that captured Queen Atlanta's heart?"

He picked up his girlfriend. He was so powerful that Mela's freshly dried, burgundy hair fell like a waterfall.

……

Mela began to gasp for breath, too, "I...... I'm thinking about it."

"I fell in love with a lighthouse keeper and we had a happy and sweet life. I fell in love with a lighthouse keeper and our house faces the sea."

"That's him." Aquaman Arthur said.

My father once told me that when my mother was still on land, she loved a song.

A very silly song.

68 minutes and 34 seconds later.

At this time, now.

Mother played that song over and over again on her old SpinCo stereo, and it drove him crazy, but it made Mom happy, and so did he.

"I was just about to say that he and Atlanto's tides and sounds are very different."

Mela slapped his paw off, and she propped up her gourd-like body with her arms, then pulled the towel that wrapped her body.

"Maybe." Arthur said, "Have you thought again? Uh-huh?"

Arthur walked over to Mela's side, "If we want a cultural exchange between the land and Atlantis, you're thinking of something big."

……

She said solemnly, "Don't you think it......?"

Whether it's trivial or happy, it's all part of the connection between Mother and his world.

"You're telling me this because of what you proposed, right? Arthur? I don't mean getting married, I mean your idea.

"Oh, that's interesting, this song ......."

Things started to get a little off, but Mela at least remembered that she was getting down to business.

She looked at her boyfriend and heard him say:

"But this song used to influence my mother, and maybe it gave her a little bit more understanding of the terrestrial world, you know, appreciating these things that are not so high-minded, and you can learn a lot about them from the gadgets that people have for fun."

Mela stepped out of the bathroom where Aquaman Arthur lived, wrapping herself in a bath towel.

The eyes of the two of them were glued together, just as they were glued to each other at the moment.

"Are you going to get down to business now? I mean, it's going too fast." Mela said.

She listened to the singing voices playing from the old-fashioned record stereos, and she thought it was a little funny.

Mela lay in Arthur's arms, and she whispered a thin finger around the other's chest.

"What do you mean?"

She turned, facing the ceiling.

"You are not even the king of Atlantis, although your brother Orm voluntarily obeyed the laws of Atlantis and refused to ascend to the throne in defiance of your right of first refusal, so you have no contenders on the road to the throne for the time being."

"But you know, if you don't become king, there will always be a part of the Atlanteans who will refuse to identify with you.

Despite the fact that the regent Tula (i.e., the future waterwalking maiden, as mentioned above, Lord Aum is the half-brother of Arthur of the Sea King, and Tula is the half-sister of Aum. Obey you, and with the support of her and Commander Mook, you who refuse to ascend the throne can exercise almost the same rights as the king of Atlantis, but almost almost."

"Aum now refuses to take your throne, but only because he obeys the laws of the Atlanteans. If he has been declared a traitor or some other reason in the eyes of the law, then he can rightfully ascend to the throne."

"It won't be ......."

"Also, think about what Orm did, do you really think you can control him? Honestly, Arthur, I don't like to speak ill of people behind my back, but Orm's racism has reached the point of distorting human nature, and his sick delusions of persecution."

"He thinks that all living creatures living on land are suffering. All terrestrial life lives in poison gas. He believed that land was hell. This kind of thinking is ingrained in Orm, and if he becomes the king of Atlantis, it will be an absolute disaster."

"You really don't want to ......"

"Alright. Mela, I don't belong to Art

Landis. I am neither of Atlantis nor of the land." Arthur said, "Therefore...... My mission should only be to be a bridge between two worlds, not to be the master of one world."

"But Orm was too radical, and the theory of racial superiority made him unable to see the facts in front of him."

"Building an embassy at this time would be too radical. You didn't think about Aum's idea at all."

"I'll convince my brother." Arthur said, "Orm respects me. We're still going to build an embassy, what do you think of the name Snow Wave Base?"

"I mean, the resistance may not only come from Atlantis, but also from the governments of the land world—"

"Batman can fix that, don't worry."

Mela sighed, "Arthur. You've never cared about the internal affairs of the Justice League?"

"What's wrong?"

"Batman has been busy with those big things. Busy experimenting, busy solving those multiverse crises."

"It's been a long time since Batman has looked down at his feet," she said.

"Those who oppose him, inside the government, outside the government, and the people......"

"Amanda Waller and Martian Manhunter are using the means, the glorious, the dishonorable, him

It's a semi-open secret in the Justice League that Batman doesn't have to spend energy on these things, and even though I'm not an official member of the Justice League, I've been there so many times and already know a lot about the League."

"Ugh...... Well, I admit that I may indeed be negligent in the affairs of the Alliance......

Aquaman scratched his head, "But I don't understand, what the hell is this......"

"I'm worried, Arthur." "Batman has always been so well protected, he has almost always faced those external enemies, and he has never faced the malice that comes from within the landers."

"Indeed." Aquaman Arthur followed by him, and I felt the same way, "Although it is not fair to the alien conquerors who have been torn apart by Batman, in fact, Batman mainly presides over and participates in some battles against foreign enemies."

"Don't talk about Batman, so do you." "If one day he really finds out all this...... What do you think ......?"

"According to Batman's temperament, will he talk to the people as well as Amanda Waller and Martian Manhunter?"

Aquaman Arthur asks his girlfriend, "Of course, he ......."

However, a sharp knock on the door interrupted their communication.

Mela immediately jumped off Arthur.

She swallowed the phrase "Batman might be disappointed by this" back into her stomach, then pouted and turned on the old-fashioned record player, and the song began again.

"Someone is coming, come back and talk."

「…… Maybe there's trouble at sea."

Arthur muttered under his breath and opened the door.

Then he saw a dark figure standing there for a long time.

"Officer Watson."

"Ah, Arthur, I see your light on, I think you must be at home."

The person who came was a police officer near Aquaman Arthur's house.

"Is there something wrong—"

"Of course not. Ah, I love this song." The policewoman poked her head into the room and heard the saliva song about the lighthouse.

"Looks like Mela is too." Arthur said.

"Hello, Erica......" Mela poked her head out from behind.

"Well, I know your virtue in accepting invitations, so I'm looking for you this time to make sure you're coming to the Ocean Festival this weekend, right?"

The policewoman asked.

Mela, who was shrunk back, raised her eyebrows, "Ocean Festival?"

"The Port of Grace Ocean Festival, an annual celebration of our sea-related festival here, you know, fishing, seafood, sightseeing, it's quite fun."

The policewoman squatted down and touched the golden retriever who ran over and asked him for a hug.

"I'm not sure, it's likely that we're going to have a rough weekend. Because the establishment of the embassy and the issue of Lord Aum have not yet been resolved."

"Please, you have to come, you are almost the biggest connection between the port of mercy and the sea, you must come, it's fun."

"Well......" said Arthur, "I ......."

"We'll go." Then Arthur saw Mela put a hand on his shoulder, and he said, "Looks like we're going, Erica."

"Great, the festival is open to everyone, bring your friends." The policewoman said. She was already planning to turn around and leave.

"Friends?" Arthur, the king of the sea, said, "Me?"

"We'll take our friends with us." Mela said.

"Cool, see you guys tomorrow." The policewoman turned and walked away.

Aquaman Arthur turned to look at his girlfriend, "Bring friends?"

"You proposed the cultural exchange...... Honey."

Then he saw Mela blink twice, and then Arthur raised his hand in surrender on the spot.

"Okay, okay."

"Friends ......"

He touched his chin, and then slammed

然 says:

"I see, I can find Batman."

"Are you sure?" Mela said, "Batman is so busy, what are you going to do to make sure he'll come with you to this Ocean Festival?"

……

……

……

Inside a prison in Albuquerque.

"Here you go, buddy."

One prisoner sat at a wooden table in the interrogation room, while another policeman placed a glass of water on his table.

"You can't even have coffee, right?" The prisoner asked.

"The heater is broken, so let's just drink water." Where did we just go?"

"I told you, I'm going to get a lawyer." The criminal said, "Otherwise I wouldn't have said anything."

"You have to be looking for trouble, do you? Huh?"

"Alright, alright."

Eventually, the guards gave in.

He left the interrogation room again, and the prisoner's voice came from behind him: "Come back quickly."

"Okay. Don't go away."

Immediately afterward, in the interrogation room, there were only prisoners and a glass of water.

But in the next second, a hand suddenly reached out from the water glass and pinched the prisoner's face.

And soon after the prison guards returned only

See a large puddle of water on the ground and empty rooms.

"What's going on?"

New York.

A woman lies in the bathtub of her home.

Then he saw a pair of hands sticking out of the water.

No, a pair of blood-red, lizard-like claws.

Then the next second there was a scream in the bathtub, and then blood sprayed on the wall......

Texas......

Boston......

Chicago......

……

……

……

"You're singing your song again." Arthur said to Mela.

"I didn't."

Mela replied.

She digressed and asked, "By the way, aren't you going to call Batman?" Is he coming?"

"Here we are." Aquaman said, "With Wonder Woman."

He shrugged, "You see, that's how I got Batman to come to the Ocean Festival."
