Chapter 297, Ocean Lord
The golden trident slipped from the queen's hand.
Orm dropped the five-pronged halberd and reached out to catch the golden trident in Atlanna's hand. This golden trident is a weapon that can only be used by the king of Atlantis.
It is said that it can enhance the user's strength and become an invincible existence in the kingdom.
"Why are you asking?"
Aum held the golden trident and said with a smile: "Mother, it is also your son, you would rather let a bastard brother inherit the throne than give me a brother with a noble blood... I want to fulfill my father's will, Rule the seven seas, and then conquer the mainland!"
Tears glistened in Atlanna's eyes, and she could feel the constant flow of her life energy.
But what she regrets most is not being able to see Arthur Curry again.
The child she had never seen since she was a baby, her son.
"Congratulations, His Royal Highness Aum... No, you should be called... King Aum!" Black Manta bowed slightly. After the death of the queen, it is inevitable that Aum will become the king of Atlantis.
After hearing this title, Aum shook his head: "I don't like this title. Not only do I want to be the king of Atlantis, but I also want to be the king of the seven seas. My name is... Ocean Lord!"
"Black Manta, how long will it take for my bastard brother and the people on the ground to arrive in Atlantis?"
"It's about ten minutes. Oh... Lord Ocean Lord, do you need me to lead someone to stop them?" Black Manta asked respectfully.
"No, let them come, because they are the murderers who killed my mother, do you know what I mean?"
Aum held the golden five-pronged halberd in his hand, with a sharp light shining in his eyes, Black Manta thought for a moment, then chuckled, "Understood!"

Mela took Arthur Curry, Leah, Superman, and Karaji into the deep sea.
Because the Flash and Shazam couldn't adapt to the oxygen-free environment, they returned to the Justice League headquarters.
I plan to wait for the two sides to establish a good cooperation before going to visit my friends in the deep sea.
"It's hard to imagine that you don't have the blood of Atlantis, but you can survive in the deep sea!" Mela looked at Li Ya and the others, really surprised.
After all, Arthur Curry has lived on the ground for more than 30 years, and he still knows a lot about Superman.
"I heard that the Avengers and Superman have something called a biological force field, which allows them to adapt to any extreme environment. Let alone the deep sea, they can survive even in space!"
"cool!"
Mela glanced at Li Ya and the others enviously.
Most Atlanteans can only survive on the bottom of the sea, and many people with lower bloodlines will die when they leave the sea. However, even if Li Ya and the others go to space, they can still jump wildly, without geographical restrictions.
"Wow, big shark!"
Kara had been following Li Ya, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she found that there were many people on the ground, riding sharks with weapons in their hands, as if they were patrolling.
"Those are the guards of Atlantis. Seeing them proves that we are approaching Atlantis."
While Mela was speaking, everyone sank quickly and passed through a cloud-like thermal zone together, and then their eyes suddenly opened up.
There is still a depth of several thousand meters below, and there is a basin in front of it. On the basin is a magnificent city made of gold.
Atlantis!
People from all directions were riding sharks or driving ships, lined up on the undersea bridge in an orderly manner, and Mela led them to swim over.
Li Ya and the others looked at the other deep-sea humans around them.
Some, like the people on the ground, have a nose, two eyes, a pair of ears and a mouth.
There are also fin-shaped ears, and legs that turn into fish tails, just like a mermaid.
Some people even have a crab carapace on their backs, and their hands are covered by thick exoskeletons, which looks like a huge crab.
Everyone lined up on the submarine bridge and swam towards the capital of Atlantis.
"Why do you have to line up? Can't you swim across the city wall? That would be much faster!" Arthur became impatient, and his eyes drifted to the tall city wall.
Mela gave him a blank look: "You can try it, once you get close to the city wall within 500 meters, the Patronus Cannon will blow you to nothing!"
"Is that cannon also powered by magic?"
Superman can feel a wave of energy that he hates. If it is a physical weapon, he doesn't care at all. Even if hundreds of anti-aircraft guns bombard him for several hours, Superman won't blink his eyes.
But if you switch to the magic cannon, you have to be careful.
Mela nodded, "Yes, our technology is based on magic... we are about to enter the capital of Atlantis, follow me and don't run around!"
After passing through the tall city gate, Mela led Arthur and others to swim towards the palace.
Along the way, Arthur felt uneasy because he was about to meet his mother.
Although he had seen pictures of his mother in the photos, his father always told him that his mother was countless times more beautiful than the pictures.
"These are the queen's guests, please let us in."
When they came to the gate of the Atlantis Palace, Mela showed her identity as the captain of the Queen's Guards. The guards at the gate naturally recognized Mela and let her go quickly.
The architecture of the palace is extremely luxurious, just like being in a bright crystal palace.
Cara looked around, filled with joy in her heart. Mela could understand the little girl's eyes very well, because it was the same scene when she first came here.
Mela introduced the situation of the palace to everyone, and went all the way to the queen's study.
I saw the queen leaning on the table and chair with her eyes slightly closed, as if she was asleep. However, there was a hideous wound on her chest, which was blocked by a cloud of forbidden magic from flowing out of blood.
"Her Majesty the Queen!"
When Mela saw this scene, she froze on the spot. When everyone approached, the forbidden magic suddenly exploded, and the queen's blood gushed out and spread in all directions.
"Mother!!" Arthur Curry imagined countless situations where he would meet his mother, but the one in front of him was beyond his belief.
The next moment, people from Aum, who had been ambushing around for a long time, poured in from all around.
"These earthlings killed the queen! We want to avenge the queen!"
Aum roared, and his vicious eyes swept across everyone's eyes one by one, and finally fell on Arthur Curry, who was covered with tattoos.
"No, the queen was already there when we came..." Mela said halfway, her eyes suddenly brightened, she stared at Aum, "It was you! You killed the queen!"
Arthur Curry looked at his mother in a daze from the beginning. When he heard Mela accusing Aum of being a murderer, his eyes suddenly became angry and he rushed to Aum.
"I don't care who you are, I want you to die for my mother!"
Arthur rushed forward quickly, and the guards who poured in stopped him. They all held energy guns and pointed at Arthur Curry, Li Ya and others.
Li Ya heard a weak heartbeat in his ears, he squinted his eyes, and saw the queen's heart, which was still beating weakly.
The vitality of the Atlanteans is already strong, and in order to cover up the bloody smell of the queen "after death", Orm imposed a layer of protective magic prohibition on her.
It was this restriction that was used by the queen to put herself into a state of suspended animation.
Li Ya looked at Superman and just met Superman's questioning gaze, so he nodded.
Said in a frequency that only Superman can hear:
"The queen... is not dead!"
