American comics: I became a god at the beginning, I chose to practice both science and magic

A stream of data flashed in Cortana's eyes, and the Dreamstone suddenly appeared in mid-air.

After a long period of experimentation and research, Dane finally found a way to allow the artificial intelligence Cortana to use magic.

By programming the magic circle into a 01 language and using the Dreamstone as the magic power source, Cortana can construct any known magic.

However, so far, Cortana can only use those mature magics. She herself is not capable of creating new magics, and she is still one step away from true intelligent life.

This step is the soul.

Dane took the Dream Stone, and a bracelet made of nanomaterials appeared on his hand. This was a portable supercomputer with a large space expanded using the lamp ring technology.

Cortana smiled, then her body turned into a point of light and flew into Dane's bracelet.

Dane retracted the bracelet, pulled with his hands, opened the portal to Atlantis, and stepped into the water.

Since he did not enter through normal channels, Atlantis' early warning system did not respond to him at all.

"Arthur."

Arthur turned around suddenly when he heard that, and was surprised when he found it was Dane.

"Dane! How did you get here so quickly?"

Atlanna just left not long ago!

"Now that we know the enemy's plan, of course we have to make arrangements in advance. Arthur, I hope you can cooperate with me."

Arthur said readily, "Just tell me, I will definitely cooperate!"

Dane nodded. "I want to set up a large magic circle throughout the territory of Atlantis to confuse the enemy and maybe even lure them into a trap."

Arthur asked doubtfully, "But Atlantis is a very large territory. Can you get it all?"

"There's no need to set it up across the entire sea area. The enemy is coming for your people, so you only need to confine your people to a fixed territory."

"That's no problem." Arthur simply agreed to the request.

Then he planned to let Vico carry out the order.

When Vico heard that Arthur was looking for him, he swam into the king's meeting room.

Then he saw Shazam. He almost shouted the word "Guards" but he had to hold it back and turned to look at Arthur.

"Arthur, you called me?"

"Yes, Vico, I wish to issue a royal decree."

"You say." Vico had already secretly become a little cautious.

He was afraid that Shazam would use Arthur to achieve certain goals.

"Let all citizens stay in Atlantis and don't go anywhere!" he said carelessly.

Dane couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand. What he said was too straightforward.

Sure enough, Vico immediately objected.

"Arthur, you should know that Queen Atlanna is actively establishing diplomatic relations with other kingdoms. Do you want to close Atlantis at this time?

This will give the people a very bad impression!"

Arthur was puzzled. "Mother must have other ways to enter and exit Atlantis freely. What's the problem with that?"

Now it was Vico's turn to hold his forehead and feel a headache, but it would be no problem at any other time.

But at this time, any small move made by Arthur could easily be magnified infinitely, causing tension among the parliament and the people.

This is not a failure in the technical sense, but in the political sense.

Dane thought about it and decided that it would not be good for the mother and son to have a disagreement because of this incident, so he suggested:

"In fact, as long as we can ensure that most citizens are within the country, we can actually perform this magic without them knowing."

Arthur nodded when he heard this, but Vico was confused. He quickly asked, "What magic? What exactly are you going to do?"

The two of them looked at each other, and Arthur believed that his teacher could be trusted, so he told him the whole story.

Vico couldn't help but frown: "These surface people are really..."

Arthur quickly grabbed Vico and stopped him from continuing. He gave Dane an awkward smile.

Dane could understand his feelings. Regardless of whether there was a mastermind behind this matter or whether it was what Dane thought, the United States officials would definitely be happy to see it happen.

However, everyone is equally divided on this matter. It was Atlantis that took the first action, and it is obviously impossible to expect the other party to just take the beating without fighting back.

"So, what do you mean? I think Atlanna must have reminded you to assist Arthur well before she left.

Now, Arthur is fulfilling the duty of a king and protecting his people.

Mr. Vico, do you want to stop it?"

Vico's face darkened when he heard this. Are you sure you are not adding fuel to the fire by saying this?

He thought about it and came up with an idea.

"How about this, let Arthur appear publicly in front of all the citizens. Most of the Atlanteans want to see their new king..."

Arthur's face was immediately filled with rejection.

Dane asked curiously, "Why? Is there anyone who doesn't know that Arthur has inherited the throne?"

"In fact, there are still quite a few citizens who believe that Om is still their king." Vico sighed.

A big reason why this happened was that Arthur had always been resistant to becoming king and therefore refused to communicate with his people.

But now, Arthur couldn't do this anymore.

Dane simply issued orders to Arthur as the leader of the Justice League.

"Arthur, this is a serious matter. Put aside your petty emotions and resolve the matter first."

Arthur had once made a promise that he was willing to be Dane's pawn, and now the request he made was reasonable, and Arthur had no way of refusing.

He could only sigh, take out the golden trident and hold it tightly with both hands.

The Trident of Neptune could enhance his abilities, allowing him to connect directly to the consciousness of the Atlanteans, the same way he communicated with marine life.

Dane taught him this.

Citizens of Atlantis, I am Arthur Curry, your new king. Tomorrow at this time, I will be waiting for you at the Ring of Fire...

After making his point clear, Arthur retracted the trident and placed it back beside the throne.

Because he had activated the power of Poseidon, Dane could also hear Arthur's "broadcast" to Atlantis.

"The Ring of Fire, that's a nice place."

The Ring of Fire is where Arthur and Orm had their first duel in the movie. Legend has it that the battle there can lead directly to the eyes of the gods.

Dane was about to place the Dream Stone there to activate it.

At this time, Arthur's voice also sounded in the hearts of all Atlanteans.

Whether people know him or not, they are all amazed by his ability.

They exchanged information with each other and found that everyone had heard the voice, and were secretly shocked by it.

You know, among all the kings in history, there has never been a king who could communicate directly with the hearts of every citizen.

"You going?"

Someone asked his companion, who replied melancholy, "Of course we have to go. At least we have to see what kind of person our future ruler will be, right?"

There were many people who held the same idea, and more Atlanteans returned to their country from all directions.

The next day, the seats around the Ring of Fire were already full of people. Only those with noble blood could sit here.

Above the center of the Ring of Fire, a virtual screen magnified the platform in the middle of the Ring of Fire and broadcast the scene there to the citizens who could not enter.

In the Ring of Fire, the mechanism door of the underground secret room opened.

A man wearing yellow upper body, green inner armor and holding a golden trident in his hand jumped out.

As soon as Arthur appeared with the trident, the nobles recognized him immediately.

"That's...that's the king's..." He rubbed his eyelids as if he couldn't believe it, then looked at it carefully again, even using a telescope.

"That's the Trident of Neptune!"

Although everyone had heard that the new king had found the sacred trident, they always thought it was just hype.

But considering the magical power Arthur unleashed yesterday and what they saw with their own eyes today, they began to waver in their hearts.

As soon as the golden trident appeared, Atlantis was in an uproar!

Chapter 168 Enlightenment

Neptune is the sea god who rules the sea in Roman mythology. In this world, he is actually a vest of Poseidon, and it is public.

Therefore, in Atlantis, which believed in Poseidon, possessing the Trident of Neptune was equivalent to naturally possessing the royal power to rule Atlantis.

This is the power granted by the gods to the trident owner, a power that all sea people must recognize.

The Atlantis here does not only refer to the current kingdom, but the entire seven seas. It is the true ruler of the ocean.

No one expected that the new king would actually be able to retrieve the Trident of Poseidon, and everyone's resistance to him instantly decreased a lot.

This is probably one of the advantages of this feudal society. As long as certain conditions are met, the people are always more likely to accept new rulers.

Arthur floated in the center of the ring of fire, and the screen showed his figure and appearance in 360 degrees without any blind spots.

He does not have the aristocratic temperament like Orm, but he is not completely useless. His appearance and his eyes reveal a wildness that the Atlanteans do not possess, and even a bit of aggressiveness.

Overall, the Atlanteans had a good first impression of their new king.

But what they didn't know was that Arthur, who looked very mighty in their eyes, had a brain short circuit.

He really didn't know what to say.

Although Vico had shown him the speech in advance, do you expect such an uneducated guy to memorize an entire speech of thousands of words in one night?

Give me a break!

So Arthur could only pretend to look deeply at the people around him, as if he was examining something.

But in his heart, he kept using his power to urge Dane to go faster and faster!

Dane laughed when he heard Arthur's thoughts. He originally wanted to follow Vico's wishes and let Arthur perform well, but who would have thought that Arthur was so shy.

There was no other way. As a good boss, he had to help his younger brother.

When no one noticed, he had quietly come to the top of the giant stone statue in the Ring of Fire and began to cast spells with both hands.

In the void, the Dream Stone emitted a brilliant red light. Under the radiation of the light, the entire Atlantis gradually fell into a dream.

The spirit of Atlantis is different from the city spirits in the surface world. It is truly invisible and has very little self-awareness, as if it has been suppressed.

But it still entered the dreamland with its people under the power of the Dreamstone.

There, every Atlantean, under the influence of dreams, saw the image of the most perfect king in his heart.

Arthur is so lucky today!

If it were him, it would be impossible for him to satisfy every citizen.

But under the power of dreams, his image was completely left to the imagination of the Atlanteans themselves.

The image of King Arthur is different in everyone's eyes, and each one really hits their strike zone.

This made Arthur, the new king, reach a rare 100% approval rating! This was a miracle that no previous king had ever achieved!

Dane continued to cast the spell, giving Atlantis a second dream. In this dream, there was no king's speech and no Ring of Fire gathering.

All Atlanteans still do things according to their own living habits, which is for Task Force X and the mastermind to see.

Now everything is ready, all we have to do is wait for the Suicide Squad to fall into our trap!

…………

At the Tianyanhui branch base.

After a brief training and equipment upgrade, Task Force X finally embarked on a journey to Atlantis.

According to the intelligence of the Sky Eye Society, Atlantis is located somewhere on the seabed of the Atlantic Ocean.

They couldn't tell the exact location, so they could only search the Atlantic Ocean over and over again in submarines.
