Ben: Use Random Mode More Often
Becoming a cephalopod is nothing. If Ben wants to, he can easily transform into Gravattack and change the planet's gravity, reverse whirlpools and ocean currents, and even suck the Seven Seas into the sky with ease.
Even Swampfire, his Death Fire, can easily ignite the sea, turning the entire world into a dimension of the dead.
By now, Ben's strength has reached an incomprehensible level.
Even without Alien X, he could solve most crises.
To be honest, Ben didn't like doing that.
For him, Omnitirix is now like a cheat code, with various upgraded Alien Hero that can dominate everything. While powerful, it also takes away a lot of the fun.
Just like in a game, having an invincible cheat is very powerful, but using it for too long can get boring.
Of course, a small opening doesn't count as an opening.
At times like this, Ben actually quite likes the random transformation mode of the Little Broken Watch.
The random transformation mode isn't truly random; rather, it's a choice made by the Little Broken Watch based on the current situation, ensuring that the crisis is likely resolved while also presenting some challenges.
Ben thought this was a good model and that they could use it more often in the future.
As for now...
Let's break through the current Seabed Whirlpool first before thinking about anything else.
The roar of the whirlpool pierced through the thousand-meter-deep sea layer, and the massive current swirled rapidly in the darkness, like the eyes of Abyss, drawing in everything in the Dark Sea, ready to devour them.
Mera stood in the seawater, her face more solemn than ever before.
The ocean current kept flowing around her, pulling at her rosy hair.
She felt as if she were standing in the midst of a terrible hurricane.
The center of the vortex is like a black hole that can never be filled, greedily swallowing everything into its belly.
The corpses of the dead Trench were a dark mass, drifting along like a swarm of ants being soaked, and then torn to pieces by the turbulent currents!
The sea seemed to be roaring.
"Are you sure the trident is really inside the vortex?"
Mera asked loudly.
Her voice was almost drowned out by the sound of the ocean current.
Faced with this enormous vortex, let alone Mera, even Ben, whose body suddenly grew to tens of meters tall, seemed like nothing more than an ant.
Like tiny humans beneath towering mountains.
"This is beyond human strength to fight... We'll be torn to pieces." Mera glanced at Ben, trembling. Even when facing so many Trench monsters, she had never been this afraid.
At least back then she could control the seawater to fight, but now she can't even do that.
The ocean currents were completely out of her control, as if a higher power had isolated everything, turning her into a tiny and weak ordinary person, powerless to resist the terrible natural disaster.
In fact, if it weren't for Ben's enormous body shielding her from the surging currents behind her, she wouldn't even be able to stand up now, and would have been swept up and crushed to pieces like those dead Trench.
Even so, she had some doubts about whether Ben could withstand the vortex.
Faced with this natural disaster, which is probably hundreds of kilometers in diameter and stretches as far as the eye can see, the difference between a few meters and a few meters is really not that big. It's just that the whirlpool is located in the Dark Sea that no one knows. If it were in a place where humans could set foot, then no matter how big the ocean-going ships or even aircraft carriers are, they would be useless. Once they are caught in, they would be turned into a pile of scrap metal in the blink of an eye.
Even a sperm whale tens of meters long looks like a sardine in front of a whirlpool.
However, when Ben's enormous tentacles grasped Mera's small body, her previous fear suddenly vanished.
His wildly beating heart gradually calmed down, as if everything else was insignificant in front of Ben.
There's absolutely no need to worry.
He is the true Aquaman, and all seven seas must obey his commands.
It's just a whirlpool, nothing to worry about.
Mera pressed her body against Ben's wrists, her trembling fingertips calming down, feeling an unprecedented sense of security. Her red hair bloomed like flames, and her coral earrings tinkled crisply in the rushing water.
"Hold on tight!"
Ben gave a reminder, then wrapped Mera in the protective sac formed by his tentacles. Mera felt as if she had suddenly become a baby, sleeping soundly in her mother's warm and peaceful body.
She heard several hearts beating strongly within Ben's spineless body.
Ben's octopus tentacles carved ten-meter-deep trenches into the seabed, shooting out like a fully drawn bow toward the Eye of Hell.
His massive body plunged into the whirlpool, shattering the curtain of water.
A vortex powerful enough to shake the seven seas and turn the world upside down crashed onto Ben, yet not even one of his arms could budge him.
The genes of the Sucker Punch come from Vilgax, a being capable of surviving in outer space.
Although his individual abilities are far inferior to those of the Ten Realms Lord Vilgax, he still possesses a resilient physique within his race.
After being genetically enhanced by Atlantis, Sucker Punch's body became more robust, and it became a true aquatic creature.
At this moment, he was riding the eddy current forward.
Like a torpedo, it charged out, its body stretched out, swaying and resilient like seaweed, and plunged headlong into the very center of the whirlpool.
This is where the water flow is most rapid; even the strongest steel will be shredded like paper in a shredder.
The mournful wail of the flowing water filled my ears.
Like a distant rumble of thunder, or a sleeping Titan turning over in the Abyss.
Within the vortex, countless Trench corpses were torn to pieces. The vortex, carrying the remains of the entire ocean current, transformed into a blood-red Milky Way and surged towards Ben. The rapids crashed against Ben's body, and the splashing waves resembled blue flames.
The swirling vortex of the hanging sluice resembles countless cyclone water blades, creating foam mountains thousands of meters high wherever it passes, and blasting the underwater mountains into countless ravines.
The Abyss now reveals its true fangs.
Ben drifted aimlessly on the desolate sea, but the ocean currents themselves were a source of strength for him.
"Smack!"
A loud bang.
His eight tentacles slammed against the water curtain, hissing like thunder from the head of the Yamata no Orochi no Orochi.
The ocean current was instantly cut off by this enormous force, creating a vacuum zone in front of Ben.
"Hard Vortex Water Blade!"
As the tentacles cleaved out, the water converged on Ben's tentacles, forming a spiral water blade, with the water pool flowing in the opposite direction to the giant whirlpool.
Boom!!!
The moment the water blade struck, it was as if heaven and earth were severed.
The scene from mythology appeared at this moment: Ben cleaved a huge gash through the hundreds of kilometers of whirlpool, as if separating the sea!
"This is the time to bring out the king of cool speakers."
Ben made a sarcastic remark, but his movements didn't stop at all. He slapped his eight tentacles behind him and, taking advantage of the moment the vortex separated, shot out like an arrow toward the center of the vortex.
Whoosh!
The split ocean currents converged again, cascading down like a waterfall hanging in the sea, chasing after Ben, the intruder.
The crashing of billions of tons of seawater has the terrifying power to sink land!
Ben's body twisted.
Eight tentacles struck the undercurrents, creating another vortex at the center of the whirlpool.
Two opposing forces are clashing, turning the entire Dark Sea upside down!
However, Mera was completely unaware.
She was enveloped by Ben, all the terrifying sounds fell silent, and the only thing she could feel was the soft body of the Sucker Punch and the thunder of several hearts.
Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, all in one look!
Atlanna felt that the Dark Sea today was the strangest she had ever seen in all her years.
She was dressed like a savage from a tribe, and stood guard on the shore, lost in thought.
If you can't beat them, join them.
For so many years, she has relied on disguising herself as Trench to evade the monsters' pursuit.
But today, the corpses of those monsters that she found incredibly terrifying surfaced one after another, tumbling and rolling in the boiling seawater like dumplings being dropped into a pot, filling the entire surface of the ocean.
"Who on earth killed all these Trench?"
Atlanna couldn't imagine anyone being able to do this; even if the entire army of Atlantis were mobilized, it would be impossible to wipe out the Trench.
But for her, this was a golden opportunity to escape the Dark Sea.
However, before she could investigate, the once calm sea suddenly surged with towering waves, startling the sleeping monster Karathen into waking up and unleashing a roar as powerful as an earthquake.
"Karathen?"
Atlanna quickly ducked to hide. Karathen was a terrifying sea monster that lived in the Dark Sea. It was enormous, like a mountain, and had a ferocious and cruel nature. It was a terrifying being that even the Trench dared not provoke.
"Just what kind of being is it that has alarmed even Karathen?"
Atlanna held her breath, not daring to move an inch. Her tiny body looked like a small mouse in front of Karathen, not even worth a bite.
Based on her past experience, once Karathen awakens from its slumber, it will hunt down the Trench and fill its hungry belly. If she's lucky, the giant will fall asleep again after it's full. If she's unlucky, it may unleash an exceptionally large disaster, and she herself will be in grave danger.
Karathen shifted its mountain-like body, looking around angrily and blankly, but found no one who had disturbed it, leaving it with nowhere to vent its rage.
Since things have come to this, let's eat first!
The tentacles, resembling the ridges of the Karathen Mountains, stretched out and rolled towards the dark sea, scooping up dozens of corpses and shoving them into its mouth.
Its eight arms and legs move in opposite directions, like a college student who's good at cooking.
Karathen ate his fill and then moved to go back to sleep for a while.
Atlanna breathed a sigh of relief and was about to stand up when she saw a huge spray of water shoot out from the sea, followed by a coiled tentacle that stretched out like a giant python in front of her.
Her tentacles were covered with countless sharp suckers, like the eyes of Cthulhu. The suckers were larger than her face, and anyone caught by the sharp teeth would be instantly torn apart, skin and flesh, leaving them covered in blood.
Just as Atlanna had forgotten to breathe due to the fear of death, a vibrant rose-colored figure pierced through the gloom.
Mera emerged gracefully from the protection of Ben's arms and feet, like an elf.
"You are... from the Xebel Kingdom?"
Atlanna recognized Mera's race. The people of the Xebel Kingdom looked similar to those of the Atlantis Kingdom, but they had red hair and were more passionate and outgoing.
Could the other person be another exile?
Perhaps those Trench corpses are related to her?
At that moment, Atlanna's mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts. She even wondered if she was hallucinating, but after a thousand thoughts flashed through her mind, she immediately pounced on Mera, flipped her over and pinned her down, then quickly pulled her away from that terrifying tentacle.
"Danger! Get away from that monster!"
Mera almost mistook her for an enemy until Atlanna spoke, at which point she realized that the person in front of her was not Trench at all, but a disguise made of black skeletons covering her entire body.
"Who are you?" She frowned slightly, noticing the fear on Atlanna's face, and explained first, "That's not a monster."
As soon as she finished speaking, Atlanna was astonished to see the enormous tentacles begin to retract.
Like a tailed beast being absorbed, its enormous size rapidly collapsed, condensing in the blink of an eye into a tall, thin, standing figure.
"This..." Atlanna was dumbfounded.
How could she not know that cephalopods could evolve into human-like forms?
What happened? I've only been trapped here for a little over twenty years, and the entire underwater race has undergone a collective genetic mutation?
Could it be that he drank too much nuclear wastewater?
Or is it that evolution didn't include me?
"Atlanna, the former queen of the Atlantis Kingdom," Ben said as he walked, revealing Atlanna's identity.
Mera an eyebrow. "She's Orm's mother, the former queen who had an affair with a landling?"
Upon hearing Mera's words, Atlanna immediately became displeased. She was filled with questions but had no time to ask before she was fed peanuts—feeding herself female peanuts.
What does it mean to cheat on a mainland Chinese person?
"Thomas and I are the real love, aren't we? The one who isn't loved is the mistress!"
"That was just an engagement, and a political one at that! They were just using me as a tool! I'm furious! When will the women of Atlantis ever stand up for themselves?!"
"..."
She rattled off a whole bunch of things in her own language, Mera nodded enthusiastically in agreement.
This softened Atlanna's expression considerably, and she began to find Atlanna more agreeable.
"You're quite good, young lady. By the way, I don't know who you are?"
"Like you, a runaway Princess of Atlantis." Mera shrugged.
"By the way, I also got engaged to King Orm and then ran away. I'm currently on my honeymoon with my new boyfriend." Mera happily wrapped her arm around Ben's, her smile as bright as a blooming rose.
"But I'm sure you won't mind, after all, it's just a political marriage, and the one who doesn't love the other is the mistress."
Atlanna was speechless.
"I'm not Tianyuan feminist." She genuinely didn't mind, but upon suddenly hearing her son's name, she felt a little dazed.
"My son, Orm... how is he? And... Arthur..."
