The Death Knell

Chapter 488 Underground Rocket

The Justice League ran out of X-Metal, which was consumed the last time they contacted the hearts of humans around the world, pulled the earth back to the multiverse of light, and then repaired the blood domain.

There wasn't much in the first place, and using it to repair the blood domain was like filling a bottomless pit. Fortunately, it was successful in the end.

Later, Batman got some X-metal from somewhere and gave it to Green Lantern John to make a cannonball as a plan to destroy the complex.

But everyone voted to let the Synthesis land on Earth, and this weapon was useless. Now John followed Ron and Hawkgirl to Senagan Prime to find some Martian prophet to find answers about the Synthesis. All contact has been severed. .

Even Batman cannot create more X-metal out of thin air. It is the power used to shape and maintain the multiverse. Taking too much away may be equally harmful to the multiverse.

Then we can only settle for the next best thing and try a large enough divine gold rocket.

Since it was decided to use the ancient rockets of Atlantis, at least one person must go underwater to activate those consoles.

At this time, Poseidonis had been completely submerged, and the outline of the city looked blurry in the deep purple ocean, swaying with the waves.

"This makes me extremely sad, but our city has fallen long ago. If its remains can be used to deal with alien enemies, I think... this is the best ending."

Mera hugged her arm and kept rubbing it. She seemed to feel cold, and her face was full of sorrow.

Arthur hugged her and comforted his wife.

"We must activate those towers as soon as possible before it's too late..."

However, while the two were talking, there was a sharp scratching sound that echoed through the sky, like a bear scratching a blackboard with its paws.

Not only the sound, but also the sea beneath their feet was filled with huge waves several meters high. It was as if the whole earth was shaking, shaking like a glass full of water.

"What's going on? Did you notice anything unusual?" Barry looked around. He leaned on the side of the ship and looked at the magnificent purple ocean below.

Diana was searching back and forth. She didn't see anything, but she felt it.

"I felt like there was a huge threat and it gave me the chills."

"There, look at the sky!" Mera raised her arms and pointed to the sky with an expression of disbelief on her face.

Perhaps when the loud noise came just now, a terrifying creature came to the earth from outer space, and it was slowly passing through the protective shield at this time.

It was the Flood that had been transformed by the Tears of Death.

The alien sea gods recalled it to the Blood Reef, injected it with the regular power of the Tears of Death through magic rituals, and watched it continue to wail and slowly transform into a giant monster with entity.

The original purple-green liquid body no longer existed, and was replaced by an indescribable terrifying body, as well as the red color that symbolized war and destruction.

It lost the ability to teleport, but gained properties similar to the Tears of Death. If its tentacles came into contact with the Earth's sea, it would instantly kill all life.

It was too powerful, and Zhenhai's bone ring could not completely control it. This new terrifying creature was filled with destruction and hatred, and Zhenhai could only keep trying to strengthen control.

Fortunately, it was done, and now the Death Siren is stuck on the barrier, motionless.

That giant red tentacle, tens of thousands of meters long, is the only thing the Justice League can see in the sky now.

"It's too late, I'm going to activate the equipment underwater!" Diana quickly checked the equipment on her body: "If it is the ancient equipment of Atlantis, I should be able to understand it."

"Diana..." Arthur originally planned to go down by himself, but in this situation, the other party brought out the legendary Death Siren, and he had to stay in the sky.

Neptune is more familiar with dealing with things like sea monsters.

The Justice League has a tacit division of labor.

To deal with aliens, Superman, Martian Manhunter or Green Lantern usually go first; to deal with mythical creatures, it is usually Diana's job; to deal with seafood, it is Arthur's task.

Batman is responsible for dealing with various mentally disturbed individuals, or others have confirmed that the aliens or mythical creatures they are dealing with are mentally ill...

"You contain the enemy's fleet. I'll go down and activate the rocket. Mera, can your hard water barrier protect me?" Diana began to assign tasks forcefully, while Batman just remained silent.

"It should be possible." Mera held her chin and thought for a moment. It should be possible to control the hard water barrier from a distance. It just requires more effort.

Arthur stood on the deck with his bare hands. He looked at the two women nervously, and then looked up at the huge monster.

He wasn't sure if his advice was correct.

Diana had put on the hard water barrier and she was ready to go down.

"Arthur, listen to me, they did not take away your true power. Your strongest power is your heart as a hero. You are a true sailor. I am honored to be your teammate."

Diana was actually not sure. After all, everything below was unknown. Whether she could come back from this trip was unknown.

It's a pity that Deathstroke is not here, she actually has something to say.

Arthur nodded, and his expression calmed down. At this point, there was not much to think about.

Believing in your friends and the Justice League is the best choice.

He raised his hand and patted Diana on the shoulder, saying goodbye like a sailor: "I am equally honored, Diana. I hope you are right. I just hope you have a safe journey now."

"The good news is, I'm right most of the time, Amazon warrior intuition."

Diana smiled and jumped into the seawater from the side of the ship. In the seawater where her vision was greatly affected, she had to find a way to penetrate the foundation of Poseidonis and enter the underground space.

She went underwater, and the rest of the people had to stop the alien army above and try to delay the Kraken's contact with the sea.

Now it seems that the opponent's use of this super weapon is more of a threat. The Death Siren is like a giant red broccoli stuck on the barrier and has not started to fall.

But the alien fleet has already arrived, and a steady stream of spaceships are coming here. The aliens plan to recapture the transport ship.

They did not fire. Although those warships had countless artillery guns that could destroy Zhenglian's ship in an instant, the aliens still chose to jump into gang war.

Batman narrowed his eyes, and he immediately sensed the enemy's intentions. Although it was not clear why the enemy attached great importance to this ship, it could undoubtedly be exploited.

"Close to the sea level and go directly under the giant beast!"

He immediately informed ** and asked him to follow the new plan.

If the enemy really values ​​this ship so much, then park it under the Kraken. Once the Kraken falls, the ship will naturally not be saved.

If the enemy values ​​it, he will inevitably hesitate. This can buy some time.

As for the survival of his group, if the Kraken comes into contact with the sea water, the earth will be destroyed, and he and others will not matter.

** gritted his teeth. Of course he knew more than Batman, but it was too crazy to put everyone on the gambling table.

Why does he always take so many unnecessary risks every time he pilots a ship for the Justice League?

"Death knell, where have you gone?"

** Holding the steering wheel with one hand, he took out the cigar from his mouth with the other hand, turned his head and spit to the side, took a deep breath, and his eyes became firm.

Now that the matter has come to this, he has no choice but to bite the bullet.

Arthur stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the overwhelming enemy troops in the sky. He hammered his chest. Although his weapon was gone, he still had his fists.

"For the sunken earth, rush!"

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

Diana finally dug through the tunnel. In fact, she found the passage that Arthur and the others had dug during the metal incident. She quickly entered the mysterious underground space.

It's no wonder Arthur didn't say anything. The old Deathstroke took the new king of Atlantis and dug holes in the tombs of previous kings. How could Arthur tell him this?

This place is protected by strange magic and is isolated from the sea water. The tomb area in front is still very complete, there is no moisture at all, and even the lighting system is functioning normally.

Passing through some large gold coffins, she came to an area that seemed to be where funerary objects were stored.

Under the light, she could see that the interior of the underground space was about the size of several football fields. In addition to various treasures, it was also filled with all kinds of strange instruments and equipment, and they had no idea what they were used for. of.

Everything around him was shining with gold, even the walls made of rocks were plated with gold, making them look extremely luxurious.

And this golden color will only make Diana even more confused.

"Justice League, I'm here, can you hear me?"

However, there is only noise in the intercom headset, and the alien communication interference is still effective here.

"Damn, what am I looking for..." Diana looked around, and while the devices around her might recognize her, she didn't recognize them.

"Calm down, Diana, calm down..."

She muttered to herself, letting herself think carefully, while everyone was still waiting for her good news.

She recalled Deathstroke's past style and tried to think about the problem from the perspective of a bystander.

The current situation was to find the rocket's launch controller, but she couldn't identify it among so many instruments and equipment.

"Then... Arthur was able to recognize it the last time he came here, which means that the thing is very distinctive. Even if he is advanced, he can recognize it..."

Arthur's knowledge of the history of Atlantis is approximately zero; his knowledge of the Amazon is simply zero...

His ability to identify the device as being used to launch rockets must be due to knowledge learned in human society.

While walking quickly through the gaps between various devices, Diana kept looking for something that could connect basic human common sense and rocket knowledge.

She thought, fuel.

A long time ago, Atlantis did not have the ability to travel to other planets, so it had to call other aliens to come to Earth for a meeting instead of going out to search for them themselves.

These rockets are just Aryan's prototype test machines. If there is no extraterrestrial energy source, fuel from the earth must be used to get the rockets into space.

From the outside, those rockets look like giant spires. Rockets of this size must require a lot of fuel.

The rocket itself can be stored for a long time, but the fuel is not the alien battery currently used by Zhenglian. It cannot be stored inside the rocket for nearly ten thousand years. That is a safety hazard.

There was no alien technology on Earth ten thousand years ago, so those rockets must have needed to be refueled before taking off.

Then as long as she followed several particularly thick, parallel pipes, she could find the underground fuel injection part of the rocket.

And this is something Arthur can understand. Whether it is a fishing boat or a car, they all need to be refueled. I guess Arthur saw the interface for injecting fuel and recognized them as rockets.

After all, children all know the principle of rockets. Whether it is fireworks or water rockets, they are all things that children like to play with.

Diana started running. She had already seen four metal pipes running in parallel.

Sure enough, following it, she soon saw a giant handle, like a bolt, stuck under four huge pillars, and the pipes were connected to the pillars through bolt-like interfaces.

There's more to the rocket, underground, and this is only halfway up.

The rocket designed by Aryan wanted to be able to carry people, cargo, live on it, etc., so the length of the rocket was very long.

The spire on the ground is the living part, and is now used as a house by the Atlanteans.

And here is the part where fuel is injected and stored. Even deeper, is their engine, under the bottomless abyss.

Diana breathed a sigh of relief, finally found it.

The actual situation was slightly different from what Diana thought, because next to the console, Ariane drew a picture, a design drawing of a rocket spitting fire and flying into space.

He erected a golden monument, almost as tall as a man, with the design engraved on it.

It was only when Arthur saw that that he realized that these were rockets. They were comic strips, and he could understand them.

Diana covered her forehead. Sure enough, she still overestimated Arthur's intelligence. It seemed that he didn't learn anything when he was in school...d
