The Death Knell

Chapter 436 Assassination

While Su Ming was busy dealing with the magic crisis and Batman was busy coordinating global affairs, Luther was naturally not idle either.

His plans are also underway.

From Ayo Island, he sent Leopard Girl and Black Manta, whose mission was to kill Poseidon.

Originally, a god could not be killed, but they could be reincarnated.

But Luther's team had previously found a tear of death in an underwater building, so things were different.

According to Luther's understanding, it is part of the concept of 'death' in the DC world. It is not a magic potion, but a liquid concept of the universe.

Of course, it is connected to the 'death' of the Endless Family, it is her, but she is not it.

It sounds like a tongue twister, but it doesn't matter to Luther. He just needs to know that this thing can kill gods.

Smear it on a weapon, and the god hit is equivalent to being marked for death. As long as it is subsequently killed, its existence will be erased from the multiverse, directly erased from the concept.

Luther had seen the Troublemaker's eraser, which could erase a person out of thin air. The tears of death are like correction fluid.

The effect is similar, but more controllable.

Just one Tear of Death is not enough for the grand scheme of things, but Luther has found out where more are. They are stored in the Tomb of the Gods, and the key to the tomb is kept by Poseidon.

The mission of Leopard Girl and Black Manta is to seize the key and obtain several things in the tomb.

The ‘third day’ step of executing the destruction plan.

After ‘God said, let there be light’ and ‘God said, let there be stars’, God said on the third day: ‘Let the sea be separated from the land’.

Luther's current goal is to do the opposite and integrate the ocean and land into one again.

....................................

Canada, Newfoundland.

On the seaside here, there is a small fishing village with only one street, a row of wooden houses, and a lighthouse.

Backed by mountains and forests, it is sparsely populated and life is calm and peaceful.

This is not a place where important shipping routes pass. Except for some fishing boats and sailors who rest here, you won’t see any strangers all year round.

The moonlight at night spreads softly on the sea, and some seabirds fly across the calm sea. They are waiting for the return of the nocturnal fishing boats so that they can take the opportunity to steal some fish to eat.

And people on the pier are also waiting for the boat.

Fishing, processing, and transporting to the city for sale are their source of livelihood.

They also looked at the silver sea, waiting for the fishing boat on the other end of the intercom to dock.

But they only saw a white line in the night, cutting through the water like an arrow and heading towards the shore.

The speed was too fast, let alone a fully loaded fishing boat. Even the fastest speedboat they knew could not compare with it.

"Do you believe him?" Leopard Girl squatted on the bow of the black vehicle. At this time, it had surfaced and jumped forward on the sea at an astonishing speed.

Black Manta, who was at the helm, didn't answer her. He knew that the 'him' Leopard Girl was referring to was Luther.

But Manta doesn't care about Luther's promise. His goal is to kill the Atlanteans, and he joins the Legion of Destruction just because having helpers is better than having no helpers.

"There are still three seconds to reach the shore." He just told Leopard Girl this.

"Damn, you haven't answered my question yet."

The underwater aircraft crashed onto the small wooden pier, smashing it into pieces, while Black Manta and Leopard Girl jumped from its sides and rushed toward the dock workers.

A red energy beam was fired from the eyepiece of Black Manta's helmet, turning a worker who wanted to escape into a puddle of black ash. He raised the harpoon gun in his hand and pointed it at the still living person.

"There is a captain who calls himself Proteus and tells us where he is. The first one to speak will live, but the rest will not."

Seawater was still dripping from his black uniform, and the workers were completely frightened by the puddle of ashes.

"Over there! That lighthouse is his home!" A worker lay on the ground and pointed out their answer to the two of them. His face was full of horror, but there was still a glimmer of hope in his eyes: "I was the first to speak. Yes, I can survive, right?"

Black Manta turned his head and looked at the red and white lighthouse standing among the rocks in the distance. The lights above were still turning.

"Thank you." He said.

"Can I leave?" the worker asked him.

However, Black Manta's helmet eyepiece shot out energy, and after one sweep, all the workers present were killed.

Their ashes, or any other powder, quickly flew away with the night wind on the beach.

The manta ray moved its neck and said lightly to the leopard girl: "It is stupid to trust others. This is my answer."

Leopard Girl's tail curled up and loosened, and she and Black Manta began to move toward the lighthouse.

She believed Diana's lies and was severely humiliated by the female warrior. She joined the Legion of Destruction now just because she didn't want to believe others.

Black Manta pulled out his knife, and his weapon was also smeared with Tears of Death. The large drop of black liquid was painted on his blade and Leopard Girl's nails.

"Luthor promised to let me kill every Atlantean with my own hands, and I must see it with my own eyes. Leopard Girl, this is my wish, but I want to surpass them as a mortal before destruction. The divine power within the body.”

"Ha." Leopard Girl laughed, Black Manta's purpose was too complicated.

He wanted to kill all the Atlanteans and gain power over them.

Pursuing transcendence? It seems like he chose the wrong camp.

Black Manta doesn't care about Leopard Girl's attitude. They just move together, but they are not comrades.

"We have sent a signal, and legend has it that mysterious creatures will rise and bring us what we want. This is a great opportunity for me to get that power." He walked quickly towards the lighthouse, leaving a long series of wet footprints: "If I can get that power, I'll be satisfied...and if not, I'll find another way, kick Luthor aside, and go it alone."

The leopard girl ignored him. Her feline eyes saw the situation in the distance in the night. On the trestle leading to the lighthouse in the reef group, there was a figure running away in a panic.

"it's him!"

The Leopard Girl ran wildly, and Black Manta was left behind by her in less than 0.1 seconds.

Leopard Girl is known as 'a speedster who is not a speedster'. She does not rely on the speed force and can reach astonishing speeds just by relying on the explosive power of her body.

"No, this is impossible." The figure looked back, and the Leopard Girl's speed obviously surprised him.

He ran faster, as if he was going to fetch something from the lighthouse.

"Don't run, old man." And almost instantly, the leopard girl smiled and threw him down from behind: "You can't escape the palm of the leopard girl."

After saying that, she directly raised her claws and swung her claws at the neck of the person who was knocked down.

The person who fell to the ground was an old man with long white hair and a long beard. He was just looking at the Leopard Girl with a horrified face at this time, but the broken windpipe and throat made him only make a hissing sound.

"Are you curious? Why doesn't your old trick of gods work anymore?" The leopard girl raised her paw and popped out her nails in front of the old man to show him. The black liquid on them gave off a faint blue light: "My nails are stained with Full of tears of death, so no more healing, no more illusions, no more gods!”

The Leopard Girl let Poseidon bleed, and she let out a hearty laugh. He was just the beginning of the destruction of Olympus. She would kill these false gods one by one to see Diana's reaction.

Diana didn't like the gods, no matter what they were, she was always respectful but distant, but she especially disliked the members of Olympus, sometimes without concealing it.

So Leopard Girl is very curious. Now that she helped Diana kill one of the main gods of Olympus, what kind of expression will the little queen make when she knows?

Are you happy? Or angry?

"Have you heard the call of the Tomb of the Gods? In the midst of these waves, come on, Poseidon, let your broken body lead the way for us, this world will surely sink!"
