Chapter 461 Diana joins!
歘! ! !
As soon as the soldier finished speaking, Om jumped up from the throne.

"What did you say?"

He raised his right hand in disbelief, pointed at the soldier with a cold look and asked.

“The person you are talking about is… Arthur Curry?
The one who made the Kingdom of Atlantis a laughing stock since he was born...Arthur Curry!!!"

After he finished speaking, Om swam towards the exit of the conference hall without waiting for the soldier to respond.

At this time, he was extremely angry. What Mother Box, what war, go to hell!
He wants to put an end to that damned bastard with his own hands!!!
But just as Orm was about to swim out of the conference hall, the Speaker, Baroness Carlson, suddenly spoke.

"Ohm, stop!"

Hearing the shouts from behind, Om gritted his teeth, showing no intention of stopping.

He knew very well that no matter how despicable the birth of Arthur was, he was still his mother's biological son and had a partial right to inherit the throne of the King of Atlantis!
Atlantis is not a purely patriarchal country. Women under the sea also have the right of inheritance, and Atlanna's situation is even more special.

Because in addition to being the queen, Atlanna had also relied on a successful coup to push herself to the throne, and served as the legitimate Sea King for a full two and a half months. She even received more votes in the council in the process, leaving her own page in the list of successive Sea Kings.

So, even though Arthur's father was just a humble landman, Arthur still had the legal right to inherit the throne.

And this is why King Orvak, who was on his sickbed, told Orm about this.

Logically speaking, parents would not want their children to know about the ugly things they did.

But the king's family affairs cannot be hidden.

When Orm was very young, he heard the name of Arthur from his father, and all his efforts so far have been to prevent Arthur from taking his throne away from him!

However, even though Om had imagined the scene of Arthur coming to his house a thousand times in his mind.

He had never expected that Arthur would come out at this time!

When he had just been injured and was recuperating, and his body had not even recovered to its peak!
Thinking of this, Om's swimming speed unconsciously slowed down by half a beat.

Could this... be Arthur's conspiracy? Once I rush forward impulsively, he will take advantage of my unhappy state to damage my image in the hearts of the people?
This……

While Om was hesitating, Baroness Carlson's dissatisfaction was about to overflow.

Baroness Carlson roared in a low voice.

"Om, stop, this is a request from the council!"

Hearing Lady Carlson's words, Om breathed a sigh of relief, then came to his senses and looked at Carlson gloomily.

After a moment's silence, Lady Carlson continued to speak to Orm thoughtfully.

"Om, even though Arthur's birth... represents the loss of face for Ocean.

His birth was not decided by him.

Your mother Atlanna has paid the price for this and was exiled to the Lost Kingdom, becoming one of the... dead souls who died at the hands of the Trench Clan!

I regret the death of Atlanna, but Atlanna's exile and death have cleansed Arthur's original sin!
Therefore, since Arthur did not deliberately violate the laws of Atlantis, we have no right to judge him, let alone judge him!

As for now, guards, bring Arthur to the council!

Since he came to the sea when we were facing the Mother Box crisis, he should make a contribution to his hometown and relatives!"

Having said that, Baroness Carlson waved her hand, signaling the guards to bring Arthur as soon as possible.

And at this moment, Om.

His heart was instantly filled with regret.
He never expected that the result of him staying in the parliament hall would be to release Arthur, the despicable bastard? ! !
Damn it, where is the pride of us sea people, and where is the contempt of the Atlanteans who are of earthly blood?
Is Lady Carlson desperate and trying all kinds of methods, or is she completely crazy, or has she already made herself a target? ! !
So, what does Ms. Carlson think?
Looking at the guards who left upon hearing the order, Baroness Carlson narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

Although the Oceanic Parliament has always firmly supported the supreme royal power of the five Oceanic countries from ancient times to the present.

But that doesn't mean they can really get along with the royal power.

What a joke, how could the parliament and the king possibly pee in the same pot?

Parliaments, past and present, have always endeavoured to turn the King into a mascot.

Parliament will never launch an attack on the king's throne, but that doesn't mean they will refuse the power and influence that comes to their doorstep!

In today's Kingdom of Atlantis, the Mother Box is missing and enemies are approaching in front, and the old king is dying and the new king is not yet strong in the back.

At this extremely special moment, if the parliament could pick out a qualified heir to the throne to compete with Prince Orm who has not yet obtained the throne.

Even if the parliament cannot turn Arthur from a chess piece into a puppet on the throne, they can at least rely on the fight for the throne between Arthur and Orm to gain enough concessions from the next king of Atlantis!
Politics is never achieved overnight.

Sometimes, after giving in so much, you really find that there is no way out!

Believing that he had made a wrong decision, Orm gritted his teeth and endured it until the burly, messy-haired Arthur was forced into the council hall by a dozen soldiers.

The moment Orm saw Arthur, his eyes widened.

Damn it!

He had imagined Arthur's image many times, but he never expected that his mother's other son would be a fucking primitive man!!!
Well, Arthur is certainly not a primitive man, he just has a more primitive personality.

He was seen trying to break free from the guards' control while looking at the people around him defiantly.

Looking at the eleven elders sitting on the podium of the parliament, and then looking at Orm who was trying to make a disdainful expression towards him, Arthur grinned lazily.

"You are the fucking King of Owak? Tsk, tsk, you are so fucking young..."

"presumptuous!"

Before Arthur could finish his words, Orm left the throne and stopped in front of Yasuo.

Looking at the angry Om, Arthur thought for a moment, as if he remembered something, and smiled carelessly.

"You are not happy when I say you are the king, and you are not happy when I say you are young, then you must be younger than me.

So you are actually Om?
Oh my god, are you in a fucking rebellion or a coup? I thought they would force me to come before the king, but instead you're sitting at the highest point.

You fucking..."

boom!
Om hit Arthur's stomach with a hard punch, and directly beat Arthur into a shrimp.

Then, before Arthur could recover from the pain, Om grabbed his messy long hair and lifted his face towards himself.

"Arthur Curry!"

Orm said coldly.

“Perhaps there are countless people who are qualified to talk about my father, but you are definitely not one of them!

Your appearance is the biggest mistake in the world. Damn it, it was your existence that made me lose my mother, and everything that led to your birth made my father depressed and bedridden for a long time!

You simply…"

"cut!"

Before Orm could finish his words, Arthur spat a mouthful of blood mist into the water.

Then he licked his teeth savagely and smiled at Om.

"I thought you were going to say something, and that's what you just said when we got together?

What it boils down to is that my dad and your mom slept together, right?
Tell the truth, brother, your father is actually the third party. Our mother and my father were together first. You should know that..."

"Enough, Arthur Atlanna!" In the distance, Baroness Carlson interrupted Arthur.

Hearing this, Arthur was slightly stunned, then immediately glared over.

“It’s Arthur Curry, ma’am!
Although I haven't seen my mother very often, I still like her very much, but I don't love her so much as to change my father's surname!

I know you guys are awesome, with a whole ocean and lots of kingdoms and a fucking underwater kingdom that looks like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

But you will never understand that without the little jokes in Miaomiao's house, you are far worse than my dad in my eyes!
I'll never forget who raised me, guys!"

"That's enough, Arthur...Curry!"

Baroness Carlson couldn't help but cover her forehead. She didn't want to continue with her plan anymore.

If such a hairy thing were to become king...

Maybe after a few decades, the mouths of all Atlanteans will be filled with strange little jokes...

However, rights are far more important than outrageous heirs, and the more outrageous the heirs are, the more convenient it is for Parliament to sideline them.

So, although Baroness Carlson complained on the surface, she was actually more optimistic about Arthur Curry.

With this thought in mind, Baroness Carlson waved her hand and smiled.

"Guards, untie his ropes. The Council Chamber will never use force against the heir to the throne!"

"What are you talking about, Carlson, he is not the heir to the throne, my father is still alive and well!"

Om immediately jumped out to criticize the Baroness's speech, but the Baroness's order had already been carried out.

After a moment, Arthur moved his hands and casually raised his middle finger to Om.

"Tsk tsk, His Royal Highness Prince Aum, hahahaha!
Your people don't listen to you at all, and you don't have any power, and you're still a prince?"

"Arthur Curry, the Ocean Council does not serve any one king, we only serve the entire race.

And you, please don't be so cautious. I want to ask you why you broke into the first-level temple!"

Baroness Carlson interrupted Arthur's sarcasm and asked him a practical question.

Hearing this, Arthur smoothed his belt which had become a little loose in the recent battle and smiled.

"What the hell else can I do, am I going to go to a shabby bird house and try to take your prince's shitty position?

Stop it, sister. I don't have any good feelings towards you. Even if you ask me to be king, I would rather guard my lighthouse!

As for me rushing over, damn it, didn’t you hear the sound before?
I was on the West Coast with a dolphin looking for his lost mother, and I heard that roar.

I didn't know that was your forbidden area. I just approached and was surrounded by thousands of people?
What a joke, is your king not here because he is having a party with his goddaughter in that ruins?
And then I almost found out..."

boom! ! !
"Shut up, asshole!"

Arthur was undoubtedly hit by a punch, and the shocked Baroness Carlson also truly realized the power of the little jb in Miaomiaowu.

Arthur curled up instinctively again, but only for a moment, then he raised his head with blood foam in his eyes.

"hey-hey."

Arthur gave a savage smile and said to Lady Carlson.

"I may have a bad temper, but it's useless, you are the one who has the final say.

Tell me, woman, what do you want to do with me?
If I must die, can you throw me into a group of women and let them fuck me to death?

I haven’t played with the women of Atlantis yet…”

"Stop it, Arthur, you know very well that you are also a child of Atlantis!
Your blood yearns for the sea, and that instinct allows you to swim in the sea, just like every underwater dweller.

And beneath your rough appearance, don't you also care about the ocean?
Otherwise, why would you come here to observe the unusual movements of the Mother Box?"

"Mother box?"

Hearing this, Arthur frowned.

"what is that?"

“It was one of the spoils our ancestors obtained after defeating certain enemies.

But now, our enemy has found it. He has snatched Ocean's Mother Box, and next he will snatch the Mother Box kept by humans and gods!

Arthur Curry, the sea and the land are both facing huge troubles now, and you are the common son of the sea and the land.

Maybe... can I ask you a favor? You would be more suitable to do that than Princess Mera and Officer Vicko.

Atlantis needs your strength, and your homeland... and your mother's homeland, need your help as well, son!"

……

While the members of the Atlantis Parliament were busy persuading the stubborn Arthur and appeasing the increasingly irritable Orm.

In the direction of Amazon, inside the temple.

Diana resolutely picked up the Lasso of Truth, tied the Mother Box tightly, and then tied it to her back.

Looking at her daughter getting ready, Hippolyta walked forward worriedly and gently grasped her daughter's wrist.

"Diana, are you... sure you want to do this?"

"Don't try to persuade me, mother. If I can't protect the Mother Box, then even with all of you, it will be difficult to keep it safe!

The enemy this time is very strong, the kind that makes me feel super troublesome, but compared to that guy, this guy is nothing!
As for my safety, well, as long as I don't provoke Tang, he won't be too violent towards me.

In short, if I can send the Mother Box to Tang's city, Tang will never tolerate any invaders entering his territory, and the Mother Box and the Earth will be safe under Tang's power!"

Having said that, Diana tightened the rope heavily, then shook it to test the tightness of the Mother Box.

After making sure that the Mother Box would not fall, Diana continued with the knife.

"Don't worry, mother, I have thought it through a long time ago.

Perhaps, this is the real meaning of the appearance of a bastard like Tang.

His existence is indeed a big trouble for good people all over the world, but his existence can also be a big trouble for all evil people in the universe!
I don't have the ability to deal with Tang, but can't I still use him?
He did so many... damn, so many rude and stupid things to me!

No matter how you look at it, she wouldn't completely get rid of me just because I caused her trouble.

Anyway, I have made up my mind, mother, when I am not around, please take good care of yourself and our people!"

As soon as she finished speaking, without waiting for Hippolyta to say anything else, Diana flew away in a hurry.

Running on the clouds with the Mother Box on her back, Diana's heart was not as calm as she said.

Downton...

You damn bastard!

Do I have to see you again?
