The Trench? I'll Scatter Even Your Ashes!
"What?"
"What happened?"
Bruce Wayne, who was still monitoring the Seven Seas' movements inside the Batcave, looked at Diana in front of him, and his butler Alfred handed her a cup of coffee.
"This invasion by foreign enemies is far more serious than we imagined."
Diana personally unveiled the mystery of the Mother Box.
The Mother Box from Paradise Island was placed right in front of Bruce Wayne.
A perfectly square box with a mechanical-looking construction.
If Bruce Wayne hadn't become accustomed to the mystical nature of this world, he would have found it hard to believe that such a simple, square box could contain terrifying energy capable of destroying the entire world.
"How so?"
Darkseid.
Diana, with a serious expression, uttered the name that Bruce Wayne had heard before.
"He is the leader of an alien civilization, an existence equivalent to a cosmic overlord."
"In ancient times, the gods joined forces with the sea creatures, humans, and even the Amazon tribe to defeat him, saving the earth from being ruled and enslaved."
"Now, he's coming again."
"Steppenwolf is his vanguard, and Steppenwolf's attempt to steal the Mother Box is a harbinger of Darkseid's imminent arrival on Earth."
"The Earth is in danger right now, Bruce."
"We cannot allow Steppenwolf to collect all three Mother Box; otherwise, we will be completely unable to stop Darkseid's arrival."
In particular, Earth no longer has its guardian angel— Superman.
"Steppenwolf moves faster than we thought. In fact, if I hadn't gone back to look up information about Darkseid and Beckett, Steppenwolf might have already taken it."
Diana took a sip of coffee and recounted in detail how Steppenwolf invaded Paradise Island and stole the Mother Box.
"A clone?"
Bruce Wayne, however, focused on the description of Steppenwolf's disappearance after being defeated by Diana.
Queen Hippolyta, the leader of Paradise Island, called it a "doppelganger".
"Yes, I guess the injuries he sustained after Beckett true form descended were quite severe, so he can only descend as a clone for the time being." Diana nodded, stating her speculation.
Bruce Wayne interlaced his fingers and fell into deep thought.
"Also, I couldn't find any information about Beckett on Paradise Island, but I brought this with me."
Diana handed a USB drive to Bruce Wayne.
This was specially made by her; it contains all the information about the Titan God.
Bruce Wayne excels at this kind of meticulous analysis.
If this analysis doesn't reveal anything, then there's truly nothing that can be done. Unless Bruce Wayne were to dig up the graves of the Titan God and conduct genetic comparisons on each one.
"By the way, how are Beckett and Mera doing?"
After explaining everything, Diana then began to inquire about Beckett and Mera.
Before she left, Bruce Wayne told her that he would handle the matter.
"Everything is calm." Bruce Wayne, who was constantly monitoring the Seven Seas, shook his head and turned his gaze to the seven large screens in front of him.
Whether through energy analysis Spectrum or other methods, Bruce Wayne did not see any unusual activity in the ocean.
"Beep beep beep beep!!!!"
Just then, the screen in the upper left corner of the seven screens suddenly sounded an alarm!
The rapidly fluctuating numbers constantly stimulated Bruce Wayne's sensitive nerves!
"Enough, Beckett!"
"The Trench Kingdom is right down there!"
In the midst of thunder and lightning and a violent storm, Mera had to raise her voice to speak.
Are you sure?
Holding Mera's waist, Beckett gently lowered her onto the dark sea surface.
The raging wind and torrential rain, along with the surging waves, relentlessly battered the two men's bodies. The natural power that was once capable of killing people and their souls was rendered powerless in front of Beckett.
"Yes--"
Mera nodded, but before she could finish speaking, several ferocious Beast suddenly leaped out of the sea, opening their blood-red mouths and rushing towards Beckett was shimmering with golden light!
"Careful!"
Mera immediately changed her mind; before she could finish speaking, the corpses of the four Trench members had already turned to dust before her eyes, vanishing into the raging storm...
"Okay, never mind." Mera put her arm around Beckett's waist and pointed out the way to the Trench Kingdom.
Whoosh!
With his body radiating golden light, Beckett was arguably the brightest star in the entire Trench Kingdom.
The seemingly empty underwater world suddenly changed its appearance after progressing to a certain point.
After flying over the spectacular structure that could be described as a narrow passage between the seabed and the sky, Beckett and Hela were immediately surrounded by the roaring Trench tribe!
A dense, seemingly endless array of monsters, covered in scales and armor, with ferocious faces.
The jagged teeth emitted a foul stench that was unbearable for ordinary people, and the dense claws reflected the golden light that appeared on Beckett's body.
The piercing cry was long and mournful, as if calling on friends to come and watch Beckett, another oddity in thousands of years who dared to enter the territory of the Trench Kingdom.
Oh, no, there should be two.
Besides Beckett, who seemed to glow, there was also Mera, who was so nervous that she clung tightly to the man's waist.
"Beckett ..."
"We—ah!"
As if suddenly receiving a signal, the countless Trench monsters swarmed forward, turning Mera's face deathly pale!
Boom!
A raging energy storm centered on Beckett instantly plunged the entire Trench Kingdom into chaos!
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and corpses littered the field.
All Trench members who dared to approach Beckett and Hela paid the price with their lives.
The strong smell of blood seemed to excite the Trench monsters even more, and their piercing and mournful cries continued unabated!
"Beckett! Let's go!"
"Hurry up!!!"
The overwhelming, dark army of monsters made Mera instinctively grab Beckett's hand to back away, only to find that he wouldn't listen to her at all.
Not only that, he actually charged alone into that overwhelming army of monsters!!!
"Beckett! Are you insane?!?!"
Mera chased after Beckett desperately, trying to keep him from being swallowed up by the monster horde alone.
"Crazy?"
Are you kidding me?
Beckett turned around, and the proud smile that curved his lips was unforgettable for Mera.
A beam of silvery-white energy erupted from Beckett's palm without warning, instantly piercing through the entire Trench Kingdom's Grand Canyon!
Rumble!!!
The terrain is fracturing!!! The seabed is shaking!!!
The overwhelming monster army instantly transformed into food for the fish, nourishing the ocean where they had lived for countless eons!
"These guys are pitifully weak."
Beckett had obliterated the entire Trench Kingdom's Grand Canyon with a single blow, waved his hand dismissively.
I'm currently on an IV drip, so that's all for today's update. I owe one more chapter.
The weather in Guangzhou is getting cooler, and I caught a fever after taking a nap at noon...
I was wearing short sleeves just two days ago, and I caught the virus today because I wasn't wearing a jacket...
The extra chapter I painstakingly added yesterday has been given back today...
Bonus chapter progress [1/10]...
