Chapter 237 Tsunami

"You...you succeeded..."

Although the filter in her heart was broken, Mera was still excited.

Kevin got the trident, which meant that he had the ability to stop the war!

Atlantis is saved!

"Obviously."

Kevin smiled and responded, swinging the trident.

He was just holding the trident at the moment, and did not change into King Atlan's glittering golden clothes.

King Atlan's armor looked pretty good, but it was the clothes of a dead person.

Kevin was a little bit resistant in his heart.

This may also be a kind of cleanliness.

And then again, Kevin didn't look good in the armor. Although Kevin didn't wear it, just from the style of the armor, he knew it was not suitable for Kevin.

So Kevin just came out with the trident, and the armor was stored in the treasury and left there to gather dust.

Kevin upgraded the three new skills after the job change to the first level.

Kevin wanted to invest all his skill points in the skill of [Lord's Martial Arts] and upgrade it to level 3.

But unfortunately, he didn't have enough skill points.

Kevin simply upgraded all the skills equally.

The space inside the level 1 [Lord's Treasure House] is not very large. It is more like a 'storage box' than a treasure house. It seems that this treasure house needs subsequent upgrades to expand the space.

This is also a conventional routine and not surprising.

The armor is placed in the space, and the trident is left outside. Kevin appeared in front of Mera in this posture.

Because he has always been dressed like an explorer, he now holds the trident and looks more like a tomb robber who just walked out of the ruins than the future new king of Atlantis.

But Mera didn't care about these.

She stared at the trident in Kevin's hand with burning eyes, and said after a while:

"Since the trident is in hand, let's go back and stop Arthur!"

"Well... we can go back, but before that I want to ask you a question."

"What question?"

"I got the trident, you won't make me the new king, right?"

Kevin asked with a bitter face.

Mera was stunned at first, and then answered without thinking:

"What stupid things are you talking about..."

"...Won't you?"

When Kevin thought he had misunderstood, Mera rolled her eyes and said:

"Of course I will! Finding the legendary trident proves that you have been recognized by the King of Atlantis, and of course you are the future king of Atlantis! This is the consensus of all Atlanteans!"

"It's not... it's just... isn't your method of selecting the king in the sea too simple? This backward constitutional monarchy should be changed..."

Kevin muttered in defense.

He was the CEO in the Black Robe World, the Supreme Sorcerer in the Marvel World, and now he has been in the DC World for a few days and is about to become the king of a country.

Kevin clearly just wanted to be a salted fish who didn't care about anything, why did things always turn out like this?

It's okay in the Black Robe World, the CEO position is something Kevin actively pursued.

But the special positions in the Marvel World and the DC World were not something Kevin actively asked for!

"If you want to change this system, you have to wait until you become the king."

Mera responded seriously to Kevin's small complaint.

Mera also understood that the successors to the throne of all generations have undergone strict education.

Whether it is martial arts or political means, even if there are things you are not good at or don't like to do, you must master the relevant theoretical knowledge.

Even Arthur in the parallel world has been trained by the kingdom minister Vico since he was a child, teaching him martial arts and telling him how to govern a kingdom.

Although Arthur in the parallel world probably didn't hear anything about politics, at least he had the experience of being trained.

Kevin has never experienced this kind of training. He is just a wild boy. It is indeed a bit difficult for such a person to suddenly become the king of Atlantis.

But there is no way. Rules are rules. Kevin will be the future king if he gets the trident. Even Mera cannot change this.

Even if Arthur does not recognize it, at least the Fisherman Kingdom, the Saltwater Kingdom, and even the Zebel Kingdom where Mera is located will recognize Kevin's identity.

Kevin's future cannot be changed.

And if he wants to change all this, all he can do is to change this "backward" system in his eyes after he becomes the king.

"Or..." Kevin, who feels that his responsibility is inevitable, tries to hand the trident to Mera: "...You try it?"

"Kevin... Don't joke at this time."

Mera, who was originally a little moved by the trident, seems to have lost interest in the trident at this moment and doesn't even look at it.

The trident has recognized Kevin's identity. Even if it is handed over to Mera, she can't use it.

Mera thinks so, and therefore no longer fantasizes about getting the trident and becoming king.

Moreover, she felt that she was indeed not fit to be a king.

She was more fit to be a queen.

Thinking of this, Mera glanced at Kevin with a rather ambiguous look.

"Ahem..."

Kevin, who tried to shirk responsibility to no avail, coughed dryly, took back the trident, and sighed to Mera:

"...Okay, let's go back and stop Arthur first."

...

The war on land and sea began with Atlantis' unilateral declaration of war.

The bad news is that the land has no means to deal with the ocean kingdom.

The fighter planes flying in the sky cannot attack the marine army under the deep sea.

The warships floating on the water are also overturned by the waves raised by the underwater kingdom, and they break the bottom of the lower ship and sink the warships.

The submarines submerged in the water can hardly get close to the army of the ocean kingdom.

They can smash the submarines from a long distance, and the torpedoes and various thermal weapons in the submarines can hardly play a role.

The humans on land seem to be able to use only the most powerful lethal weapons they have developed.

Nuclear bombs.

But the power of nuclear bombs in water will be reduced, and the ocean is too vast. The army of the underwater kingdom seems to be able to emerge anywhere, and they can't find a target to hit.

If they can't use nuclear bombs to effectively destroy the enemy's command system, their launch of nuclear bombs will only anger the underwater people.

And... pollute the ocean.

"Pollution of the ocean may be a way to deal with them!"

"But then humanity will be finished!"

"We can use a method that is not so polluting..."

"If the pollution is not high, with the technology of the underwater civilization, they may have a way to solve it themselves, but if the pollution is high, it will destroy the earth's ecology!"

"But no matter what, the ocean must not be polluted! Otherwise, humans will destroy themselves without the underwater kingdom destroying them!"

Faced with the declaration of war from the underwater world, representatives of major countries in the United Nations quarreled.

Some of them advocated "poisoning" the ocean and destroying the underwater people by destroying the marine ecosystem.

But some firmly opposed it, believing that doing so would be a way to perish together.

It is even very likely to unilaterally destroy the human world.

After all, they are now facing a group of people with unknown technological level.

They have the technology to set off tsunamis in the sea, and they also have special weapons that can emit energy waves from the trident.

In terms of cutting-edge technology at the bottom and middle levels, they are far superior to the existing technology of humans.

And the only high-powered weapon that humans can show off, nuclear bombs, have little effect on the underwater people.

So who can guarantee that the underwater people don't have the technology to solve the pollution in the sea?

It's better to say that they must have it!

After all, they don't know how long they have existed in the sea, maybe thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years!

God knows how far they have developed technology!

Perhaps except for not being able to leave space, they can do almost everything that humans can and cannot imagine!

Humans cannot treat them as enemies on the same planet, but should treat them as aliens!

"Then build a spaceship and escape..."

A coward made an opinion.

"Do you want to be a fugitive?"

Then he was scolded back with a tough attitude.

"Enough!!!"

When everyone was arguing, suddenly someone slammed the table heavily and shouted loudly, stopping everyone from arguing.

Everyone turned their eyes to the person who spoke, and saw that person's face was pale, and he said with difficulty:

"... I just received... a tsunami warning from below. While we were arguing, the Atlanteans had officially launched the first wave of attacks against us! We don't have time, everyone!"

...

The Atlantean offensive was a bit beyond the common sense of land people.

Although the coastal areas of San Francisco had been hit by tsunamis before, everyone was also prepared for their ability to control tsunamis.

But before, it was only a tsunami in one city.

But now, important coastal cities around the world have issued tsunami evacuation warnings!

The Atlanteans wanted to use tsunamis to destroy the living forces along the coast.

What's even more desperate is that humans can't find a way to stop it.

After all, it's a tsunami!

Earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, these are disasters that humans cannot stop. When disasters come, they can only do their best to avoid them and carry out disaster relief afterwards.

Apart from that, they can't do anything.

Including now.

"That guy, hasn't succeeded yet?"

Flying in the sky with a fighter plane, Batman, who obtained intelligence from the United Nations through the hacker system, looked at the "mountains" formed by the sea water coming from afar.

The waves as high as hundreds of meters were heading towards the land from afar. At this speed, it would take less than an hour for the coastal area observed by Batman to be eroded by the tsunami.

The good news is that the tsunami observed by Batman is the most violent of all tsunamis and the fastest to reach the coastline, which means that humans in other coastal cities at least have time to escape.

But the bad news is...

The time they have to escape...I'm afraid it's a bit insufficient.

Batman can't do anything about it.

Without Superman, Wonder Woman, Cyborg, and so many heroes who can stop all this, Batman alone can't save the defeat after all.

No matter how smart Batman is, he is just a mortal, and he doesn't have any special abilities.

Especially because all this came too suddenly, leaving him completely unprepared.

He didn't know how to prevent this disaster, so he could only pin his hopes on Kevin.

But...almost a day had passed, and there was still no news from Kevin.

And even if he got the trident, how could he stop this "natural disaster" from attacking the land?

"Quick... look——!"

When Batman was worried, the reporter's voice suddenly came from the TV news broadcast on the fighter plane.

"...There seems to be someone on the wave... on the wave!! Is that an Atlantean!?"

The reporter's exclamation caught Batman's attention, and he immediately looked down at the huge waves below.

On the huge waves, a man holding a golden trident came riding the huge waves.

After using the fighter plane equipment to magnify the man's face, Batman finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was the Atlantean named Kevin.

He arrived in time.
