Not all heroes have joined Phoenix Resistance.This is normal, and superheroes are not always waiting to save the world.They also have their own things to do.At the same time as the Phoenix sniper battle, on Earth, to be precise, in the deep sea, another battle was still going on, or rather, this protracted war was nearing its end.At the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, in the Great Trench inhabited by the ferocious Trench people, an army is advancing rapidly.The army is not made up of living people, but intelligent soldiers with mechanical bodies specially designed to fight under the depths of the sea.They have the coat of arms of a gear skull on their armor, representing their faction and belonging.These are the warriors of the Cult of the Mechanicus.They retain the uniform design of the Cult of the Mechanicus, with a head shaped into a fully covered helmet and no eyes on the humanoid body, replaced by a V-shaped tactical eyepiece.After entering the combat mode, the tactical eyepiece will light up with scarlet light, which is very cool, and in the dim deep sea, these lit shadows are even more solemn and cruel.Deep-sea warfare devices are equipped with sonic weapons that can be fired underwater, such as assault rifles, which shoot compressed sonic bullets from the muzzle.For an opponent like the Trench Clan, who does not have a thick carapace and has a rather poor defense, it is extremely lethal.Behind their battle lines, under the deep sea, the corpses of the trench tribe were already piled up, and some clean-up intelligence machines were pushing these corpses into the trenches behind.The scavengers that live in the deep sea will help the Robots deal with the remnants of war.Although it is the robots who fight here, it is not the robots who command the machines, but Arthur.
Curry, Merlin's nephew, prince of the kingdom of Atlantis.For a long time, this young man, with his hair and beard and dressed himself like a lion, has been operating beneath this remote sea."
It's just ahead."
Arthur and the Depthsman, which he had borrowed from Aunt Icarus, easily repelled the incoming Trench Clan, standing on the rocks of the deep sea, letting the water blow his hair and beard.Holding a vibranium trident and wearing a set of light mechanical armor, he looked out at the seabed chasm several kilometers ahead.It was like a huge sea eye, and a huge amount of seawater was constantly pouring into the chasm, because of the huge amount of sea water that was swallowed, a huge whirlpool formed above the fissure, reaching the surface of the sea.In the deep-sea eddy, which covers an area the size of a small town, thousands of trench tribes are active along the high-speed swirling current.These monstrous deep-sea monsters formed a thick blockade around the maelstrom.It's like a school of fish during the breeding season.The glowing whiskers of the Trench Tribe's heads, like anglerfish, overlapped and converged into the light beneath the depths of the sea, and as they swirled at high speed along the vortex, those glimmers of light formed a scene like lightning tumbling.If you ignore the hideous and ugly trench tribes, this scene is very similar to the occasional extreme weather on the surface of the sea, a huge tornado that rolls up the sea and rushes into the sky, or a hurricane strikes and lightning strikes.No fish can live in such extreme conditions, and there is very little life in the vicinity of this trench, except for the specially constructed trench population.Extreme desolation."
Tomorrow we will be able to advance to the vicinity of the eye of the sea."
Arthur glanced back at the intelligent soldiers who had returned to the forward base in an orderly manner to rest, and he felt a kind of excitement in his heart that he couldn't hide.After helping his cousin Namor become the king of Atlantis, Arthur has been searching for his mother.Queen Atlanta was thrown into the territory of the Trench by the brutal King Ovax and executed in the most brutal execution, and everyone thought she was dead.But no.According to Arthur's information from his father and Uncle Merlin, his mother is supposed to be alive, and that the brave and determined queen escaped in some unknown way during the mortal scene.Arthur used a lot of resources to find it, and finally he found that the traces left by his mother reached this mysterious eye of the sea, which means that his mother is probably now in the mysterious world on the other side of the submarine vortex."
An underground hollow world, who would have thought of it?"
Arthur shook his head with a smile, his face full of hope.Maybe soon, he will be able to see his mother.Arthur is an oceanographer who has worked with the Imperial Order, and he has heard about the theory of an "underground hollow world" from the researchers of the Imperial Order.He knew that the deepest part of the earth's deep sea was only 10,000 meters, which was very impressive.But compared to the entire Earth's crust, the average thickness of the mantle layer reaches 2,800 kilometers.It is not surprising that there are some hollow worlds under the earth's crust that have been closed from ancient times to the present, not to mention, Arthur himself had accidentally entered an underground world when he faced the deep-sea monster Leviathan before.If this theory is used to extrapolate, it is not surprising that Queen Atlanta has survived after so many years of disappearance.There is no shortage of resources necessary for life to survive in the underworld."
Mom, wait for me..."
Arthur leaned on his trident and looked at the huge underwater whirlpool in the distance, he whispered, "I'll pick you up soon, if you don't go back soon, Dad will be really old...""
Arthur, there's something urgent, come here."
A few minutes later, Arthur's thoughts were interrupted by a communication from his girlfriend Mela, who rubbed the communicator in his ear and said, "What's the matter?"
”"Your brother, King Namor, he's back in Atlantis, but he's in a bad condition, you need to check it out!""
Huh?"
Arthur's expression changed slightly.He knew that Namor had participated in the operation to stop the power of the phoenix, and he had wanted to go, but Namor stopped him.The feelings between the two cousins are still very sincere.Namor persuaded Arthur to stay in the deep sea and continue to search for his mother, Atlantis was responsible to the world, but it was enough for the king to go to war.Arthur was also worried, although he was not aware of the concept of the power of the phoenix, and now, Namor's return from a serious injury seemed to represent the fulfillment of Arthur's ominous premonition.One hour later, Arthur and Mela returned to Atlantis City aboard the Underwater Kingdom's fish-shaped flying machine, and the entire palace had been sealed off by guards loyal to King Namor and a group of mutants who had migrated to the bottom of the sea.It seems that the situation is not good."
Vico!"
Arthur and Mela entered the palace, and outside King Namor's bedchamber, they saw the royal minister Vico guarding there, Arthur regarded Vico as a mentor, he walked forward quickly, and asked in a low voice, "My cousin, he...""
King Namor's injuries are not serious."
Vico's expression was a little strange, he looked at Arthur, and he said, "I called you here for another reason, and that's what King Namor meant, anyway, you come with me, and Mela will stay in the next parlor, and the two brothers will talk about some secret things." ”"Hmm."
Mela gave her boyfriend a worried look, Arthur gave her a reassuring look, and then followed Vico into Namor's bedroom."
Arthur is here?"
King Namor, who was sitting at his desk, sensed movement behind him, and instead of looking back, he asked.Arthur looked at his cousin's back, and he frowned.Namor was right, but it always felt like something else was mixed in.It was a strange feeling, as if Namor was being "rubbed" with another man."
Cousin, what are you?"
Arthur stepped forward, Namor shook his head, and he turned to look at Arthur.On King Namor's face, there was a special tactical eyepiece, made of red quartz, which Arthur felt very familiar, as if he had seen this pair of glasses somewhere."
There were some problems on the sniper side of the Phoenix, and we repelled the Phoenix, but the result was unexpected."
Namor touched his glasses, he was a little unaccustomed, and he explained to Arthur, "I was folded together with Cyclopax, we became a common being, I have all the memories of Summers, I share all the emotions, I am not just Namor anymore, Arthur." ”"That's why I'm calling you to the royal city."
Namor sat in his chair and said to the stunned Arthur, "My wife, Emma, the White Queen, suffered the same fold, but her condition was more serious, we were blocked by the heroes who were still normal, and when we fell to Earth, Emma and I were separated...""
But maybe that's a good thing."
Namor let out a long sigh as he said, "That fold triggered the ambition and dark side of Emma's heart, and she manipulated many people with her psychic powers to try to conquer the world, including me. ”Speaking of this, the King of Atlantis rubbed his forehead and said, "She should have been arrested by now, I can feel my sanity returning." ”"But, Arthur, I'm not fit to be a king at this time, and the will of Cyclops is affecting me, and he is urging me to protect his wife and son...""
So I ask you to take charge of the affairs of the state in my place until I return to normal.""
This..."
Faced with his cousin's request, Arthur was a little dazed for a while.And Vico behind him also spoke: "King Namor's suggestion is correct, Arthur, before King Namor was separated from the folded state, he was really not fit to continue to be king, he was suppressing his own emotions, and he also realized that his emotions were unstable. ”"You must fulfill your duty to the kingdom of Atlantis as a temporary regent, in order to..."
Before Vico could finish his words, the door behind him was pushed open.A soldier in red armor walked quickly into the dormitory, and he said to Vico and King Namor with an anxious face: "Your Majesty, we observed that an unknown object fell into the Aegean Sea a few minutes ago, causing a special energy resonance, and just 5 minutes ago, the guardians sent back the news that the ancient city of Atlantis...""
The seal of the ancient city has been loosened!""
Huh?"
Namor was startled and immediately stood up.After Merlin, the Gatekeeper, returned the Staff of Hermes, which was used to open the ancient city of Atlantis in the First Age, the exploration of the ancient city has been maintained, but on a small scale.The four kingdoms of the Deep Sea all stationed soldiers outside the ancient city to protect the seals.Although the kings also longed to retrieve the sacred Neptune Trident representing the kingship of the Seven Seas in the city, they still retained their basic sanity, and Merlin had warned them that the door could only be opened at full moment.But now, the door is showing signs of being opened?"
What kind of falling object?"
Namor asked aloud, and the soldier raised his arm and cast an unclear projection in front of everyone's eyes.In the projection, a glowing object crashes into the ocean, shining in the deep sea with a halo that spreads out and soon fills the passages of the ancient city of Atlantis.The equipment blocking the ancient city was impacted by this energy, and in the earthquake-like vibration, several equipment were damaged."
Phoenix Fragments!"
Namor clenched his fists when he saw the glittering thing.No one was more familiar with that thing than he was, and now there was a phoenix fragment in his body."
The Nation of Nero, the Fisherman, and the Saltwater have all sent more soldiers to the ancient city of Atlantis."
The soldier in charge of communications looked at his king with a strange expression, and he seemed curious about the strange goggles on King Namor's cheek."
The three kings are also said to have set off for the place where the incident occurred," he said. ”"Then prepare for it, and I'll go too."
Namor glanced at Arthur and Vico, and he gave orders to the soldiers in front of him, and after the soldiers left the dormitory, Namor said to his brother, "Except for the gentle King of Kure, the other two kings have a very strong desire for the Neptune Trident, and I am afraid that they will take advantage of this opportunity to lead their troops into the ancient city of Atlantis." ”"But Uncle Merlin gave us a warning!"
Arthur said with a serious face, "They shouldn't have gone in!"

”"Hmm."
Namor nodded, he reached out and patted Arthur on the shoulder, and he said, "So I'll stop them as much as I can, but until I come back, Arthur, the state affairs will be left to you." ”A few minutes later, the well-dressed King Namor sat behind his great white shark pet, Gross, commanding an elite army and heading towards the Aegean Sea.He wears goggles with laser eyes, and no one can see his expression.He thought of what he had heard since he was a child, and the legends about Atlanta, the Sea Emperor, and the Holy Neptune Trident forged by Poseidon.The legendary weapon that can command the power of the seven seas, the proof of the king...
All the ambitious people in the deep sea are eager to get it, especially after the key to the ancient city of Atlantis was returned to the deep sea kingdom, and the battle between the four kings has never stopped.King Namor stroked the silver trident he kept in his hand.This weapon was given to him by Merlin.It is also said to be the weapon used by Poseidon, the king of the sea, and it does have all kinds of extraordinary powers."
It's been too long...", Namor stroked the trident, and he whispered, "Perhaps, it's time for a change of weapon, King of the Seven Seas...
It's a very imposing title. ”"I want it!"
The army of Atlantis roared across the depths, leaving only a rickety current, and Namor told Arthur and Vico the truth.But he withheld some key information.Folded by the power of the phoenix, it gives rise to ambition and the dark side...
It's not just his wife, Emma, the White Queen.And himself!
