My Marvel Superman Girlfriend.

Before Arthur and Namor could even assess their surroundings, they were struck by one of Karathen's serpentine tentacles. Despite their self-proclaimed titles of Aquaman or Sea King, they couldn't evade this powerful and swift attack, falling like two powerless underwater flies to the ground!

The two men slammed heavily into the underwater ruins. Even with their Atlantean royal blood, the sudden and devastating blow caused them excruciating pain, and they nearly couldn't catch their breath!

"What are these things?" Arthur patted his slightly dizzy head, staring in horror at the four or five huge, floating snake-like tentacles in the seabed area where he was.

"That is..."

In contrast, Namor, standing nearby, narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately spotted the trident artifact standing not far ahead, between the skull and the throne.

Namo immediately moved, like a black ghost, bursting forward!

"careful!"

Arthur suddenly lunged forward, crashing right into the second serpentine tentacle that was lashing out at Namor!

His tall and strong body appeared incredibly small in front of the snake-like tentacles. He could only barely slow down the slapping attacks of the snake-like tentacles before being suppressed by them and continuing to flip backward and fly backward!

Namor managed to dodge the snake-like tentacles' attack and continued to fly rapidly toward the trident without slowing down!

Reach the point where the magical artifact is within reach!

"I am the king of the sea!"

Namor's eyes reflected the shimmering golden light of the divine weapon, and he opened his right palm, reaching out to grab the trident artifact standing in front of him!

However, just a moment before his hand was about to land on the trident...

The dark claw that had been holding the trident artifact suddenly overflowed with a black, glue-like liquid from its palm. The dark liquid quickly spread along the trident's shaft, covering the entire trident artifact as if it were being infected!

then.

Namor's hand ultimately landed on the dark protective layer that encased the trident artifact!

Chapter 156, The Final Owner of the Divine Artifact

This was an extremely bizarre and terrifying scene.

The sacred, golden trident artifact seemed to have been corrupted, losing its original brilliance and power, and its entire body was covered with a dark liquid that resembled a living organism!

"what is this?"

Namor was startled. The dark protective layer was covered with countless tiny barbs, which made his right hand, which was strong enough to withstand bullets, feel like it was being burned. He pulled it back in pain!

Namor looked along the arm extending from the dark liquid and saw, dozens of meters away, the corrupted Mera carrying one of the snake-like tentacles.

Xinian didn't know whether Namor or Arthur had the potential to make the artifact recognize its master, so he simply covered it up.

"I haven't finished trying yet!"

As the corrupted Mera spoke, she pushed forward with her left hand and the snake-shaped tentacle she was carrying on her shoulder, and her body emerged from underneath!

"You call that not finishing? You've tried so many times!"

For millennia, the guardian sea monster Karasen has never seen anyone as shameless as the corrupted Mera.

Of course, it had never seen anything as powerful as the corrupted Mera!

Regardless, as the guardian of the divine artifact, for the promise of that deity—

Karasen must stop the invaders who have no right to be kings!

……

"What exactly happened next?"

On the island, Atlana looked horrified. The island she was on began to shake violently. Large numbers of pterosaurs fled in panic, and some land dinosaurs were so frightened that they lost control of their bladder and bowels and collapsed on the ground!

hum!

At this moment, the sea deep within the earth trembled!

Beneath the island, the sea surges!

Four or five serpentine tentacles simultaneously exerted pressure, carrying terrifying undercurrents and suppressive force, slapping down towards the corrupted Mera. This was the first time in a thousand years that Karasen had taken the situation seriously!

"Mera!!"

Namor also charged towards the corrupted Mera, wanting to seize the artifact and avenge his brother Orm!

……

The corrupted Mera suddenly opened her eyes wide, not because of the attack from Karasin and Namor aimed at her, but because of something directly in front of the throne!

First, a ray of golden light burst forth from the dark skin, carrying great power. Then, countless strands of golden light shot out from it. The trident artifact, which was wrapped in dark liquid, vibrated continuously and suddenly broke free from the grip of the dark claws, flying towards Arthur, who had just struggled to rise from the seabed!

Arthur instinctively spread his right hand outstretched.

“That’s mine!” Namo said coldly, stretching out his palm across the air.

The trident artifact paused in the seawater, caught between Arthur and Namor, as if making a final choice between the two.

"Do these two actually possess the potential to be kings?" Karasen thought to himself, yet his attack still fell upon the corrupted Mera.

All it needs to do now is stop the corrupted Mera and let the artifact make its final choice of master.

At that moment, the corrupted Mera suddenly laughed.

A wave of anger washed over him, and Xinian froze. It was the Mera in his mind who was strangely angry!

Mera whispered angrily in her mind: "Why do they have the potential to be kings, while I, no matter how hard I try, can't get the artifact to recognize me as my master?"

“Mera, don’t you understand? That’s bloodline. They have the blood of the Atlantean royal family.” Xinian thought to himself, “However, it’s good that you’re angry. A woman who can’t get angry and can only compromise can’t be an empress.”

“Xinian, what should I do?” Mera asked.

"Just trust me!" hope Nian replied with unwavering conviction.

tread!!

Mera, now corrupted from the sea, suddenly took a step forward. Her eyes burned like dark blue flames, and her scarlet hair spread wildly and domineeringly behind her. This step seemed to have stomped on the heart of the Hidden Sea at the Earth's core!

Centered on the sole of Mera's blackened foot, like a drop of dark ink spreading in clear water, the black liquid quickly permeated and stained the surrounding sea!

Ten meters, one hundred meters, one thousand meters—

Up to a radius of 10,000 meters!

Pfft! !

Within the black seawater, Arthur suddenly collapsed to the ground, while Namor knelt on both knees, his knees deeply embedded in the seabed mud!

Heavy, unbearable pressure!

Yes.

Even at depths of tens of thousands of meters and under immense water pressure, the two men, who could swim freely and swiftly, were now unable to stand due to the oppressive black water!

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!

Not only the two of them, but also the snake-like tentacles in the Blackwater area sank heavily to the seabed one after another!

Thump, thump...

The underwater area was so quiet that only the dull sound of footsteps could be heard. The corrupted Mera walked gracefully and nobly in the water, step by step, toward the trident that remained floating in the sea.

The brilliance of the trident artifact was completely suppressed, leaving it dull and lifeless, making it resemble an ordinary piece of iron.

The corrupted Mera, without needing to extend her armed hand, landed on the trident artifact for the second time. The trident hummed softly again as if trying to resist, but it was completely unable to move under the grasp of her hand.

"Even if it's a divine artifact, it's just a weapon. How can it be qualified to choose its own master?" The corrupted Mera coldly rebuked, her eyes full of disdain.

In Xinian's opinion, the divine artifact was really nothing special.

His aunt has a whole bunch of magical artifacts, including a divine arrow she recently acquired, which she still keeps in her room as a padding under the table.

At worst, we can melt it down and build a new one.

hope Nian was just thinking about this.

The trident artifact held by the corrupted Mera suddenly stopped offering any resistance. Instead, it gently intertwined with golden light, which covered the dark symbiote battle suit and transformed into a gilded battle armor!

Golden flames flickered and danced in Mera's darkened eyes!

Rings of golden light, imbued with divine power, radiated outwards like golden ripples, marking the corrupted Mera, who wielded the divine artifact, at the center of the ocean!

Countless marine creatures, with memories from the depths of their blood, witnessed the birth of a new god who reigns supreme over the sea!

The corrupted Mera wields the trident artifact, wears golden armor, and her scarlet hair dances wildly, exuding a kingly aura and a sacred presence.

The black substance flowed into the corrupted Mera's body, and the surrounding seawater became clear and visible again.

The snake-like tentacles writhed and slowly rose.

The corrupted Mera asked bluntly, "Do we want to continue fighting?"

Karasen remained silent for a moment, then spoke up with a sigh: "I never expected that after so long, a new sea god would be born."

"Sea God... what do you mean?" The corrupted Mera glanced at the golden trident in her hand and asked curiously, "Isn't it said that whoever obtains it will be a king?"

"That's definitely true."

Karasen said hoarsely, "If the trident recognizes its master through bloodline, that person will be the future king of the sea."

It paused, then said with a hint of awe and relief, "And if the other party uses non-bloodline methods to ultimately gain the artifact's approval, that person will be the sea god who rules the ocean!"

Chapter 157, Sea God, Shinian and Mera

The sea lies hidden beneath the earth's core, beneath the islands.

"The sea god?"

The corrupted Mera looked down at the trident artifact in her hand, feeling as if she could manipulate the waves and tides of the area at will, and communicate with the marine life in this sea, including the trench monsters guarding the entrance to the Hidden Sea in the Earth's core.

Xinian finally understood why the person who obtained the trident artifact could become the king of Atlantis.

It must be said, the trident is indeed the most precious imperial relic of Atlantis.

It's not just a simple symbol of power.

From the moment this divine artifact was forged in ancient times, its divine power has been closely related to the sea, to the point that it can command all the creatures and races in the ocean!

Its abilities are almost identical to those of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea, which is probably what made it feel familiar to Xinian. This divine weapon, which should rightfully be called the Poseidon Trident, is of the same lineage as the divine weapon on his aunt Diana, and even the divine weapon on Paradise Island!

Unfortunately, that's all.
