What bad intentions could Batman have?.

"How is the situation here with Neptune?"

Chen Tao walked quickly down the corridor, followed by Martian Manhunter. Strictly speaking, although he was walking quickly and quickly, in fact, this was an act of delaying time, because if he was really in a hurry, he would have flown directly from the window to the other party.

He was about to meet Mela, the wife of Aquaman Arthur. He did not dare to tell her that he had been busy with the Green Lantern Corps during this period. He had no idea about the disappearance of her husband, Arthur, and did not tell her at all. He had entered before, so he could only wait for a while and then ask Martian Manhunter to urgently tell him what the current situation was.

"Diana organized the manpower." Martian Manhunter said: "During your absence, based on our dozens of hours of tracking, we finally discovered that Aquaman, who had left the battlefield directly at that time, was walking towards the coastline entirely by running."

"Can he still find a way out in that state?"

"He smashed the building with his superhuman body, and physically penetrated the wall purely with his iron head. He even punched a human-shaped hole in the load-bearing wall of the building, single-handedly demolishing hundreds of buildings along the way. All the houses have become dilapidated, and the bills have been included in the Justice League’s accounting for the last quarter. We paid about..."

"Let's get to the point." Chen Tao interrupted him: "Money is not an issue. I remember Lucius told me last time that Wayne Group and Lex Group have recently entered real estate."

"Anyway, he finally reached the shore and jumped into the Pacific Ocean. After entering the water, we lost track of Arthur. Diana found the tracking of each member of our alliance that you left in the Justice League's computer during the emergency. System, you gave her permission—"

"Ahem, I put trackers on each of you just to prevent emergencies."

"……I did not say anything."

"...Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything. Please continue."

"We eventually found out he swam into the Mariana Trench."

"That's the largest trench in the world."

"Yes, the ocean environment in the northeastern Philippines and near the Mariana Islands is extreme, with high water pressure, complete darkness, and low temperatures. It is one of the most hostile areas on earth." Martian Manhunter continued: "Then Aquaman He jumped in. That place is a forbidden area that even the Atlanteans cannot enter."

"The Justice League organized several exploration operations. In order to prevent misunderstandings from Atlantis, we did not work with them, but with Mela. You know her..."

"Neptune's lover, are they married now?"

"The wedding hasn't been held yet, but it will be soon. Anyway, with the help of Mela's water control magic, we dived to the bottom of the trench, and encountered a large group of trench tribes. They are a group of frog-like people with sharp edges that can tear steel. The fangs' race. The submarines were attacked by them, and Mela used water control magic to kill some, but it was a drop in the bucket."

"Later, we organized several more dives, but we still couldn't find any trace of Neptune. The place was really too dark and too big. What I mean is that if Neptune didn't want us to find him, then we wouldn't be able to find him in our lifetime. get."

Martian Manhunter said, and then he added:

"Of course, this may seem a bit unfair to Mela, and I won't say it in front of her. She is a good woman and has been running for Arthur's affairs. Even though Arthur has been temporarily missing, She is still pushing forward the matter of establishing diplomatic relations between Atlantis and the government. She always feels that Arthur is only temporarily absent, and she cannot interrupt half of what Arthur has done..."

"But with all due respect, without Arthur, no matter how much propaganda work Mela does and no matter how many land people's views on Atlantis are changed, no matter how much we help her to get rid of the government people... The people of Atlantis will not obey her orders. Although Arthur Curry is not the King of Atlantis, he is the son of the previous King of Atlantis, and his blood flows through him. Royal blood.

Although he did not officially inherit the throne, he had been in the stage of prince regency before. Whether it was Commander Mook or Regent Tula, these powerful figures among the Atlanteans were all firm supporters of Arthur. , they are staunch royalists, and even if they don't approve, they will support all Arthur's decisions. But if you ignore Arthur's influence on them, these people are a group of out-and-out conservatives, stuck in their ways, smelly and hard. I'm afraid I have to tell you, Batman..."

Martian Manhunter said in a deep voice: "I shoulder the important task of communicating between the Justice League and the U.S. government. But now the relationship between Atlantis and the government is very tense, and even the Justice League cannot mediate. Those Atlanteans don't want to mediate at all. Listen to the Justice League. The impact of Arthur's disappearance is profound and significant. We need Arthur, even if it means digging three feet, we have to find him."

Martian Manhunter said: "Before you came back, due to repeated failures to dive into the trench, I had asked the Flash and Lucius to help us build a submarine that could use the Speed ​​Force to accelerate, although the prerequisite was that the Flash was inside. Act as a running hamster to generate electricity. Now that you are back and you have brought back Hal, it just so happens that there are people using green light energy to build a protective shield outside the submarine, and we are not afraid of the trench tribe's attack."

Then Martian Manhunter paused, and then said in a positive tone:

"Although the tracking method for Arthur that Diana found in the Justice League computer system has been disabled by the huge water pressure of tens of thousands of meters under the sea, I think you must have hidden the means to track him, right? "

Chen Tao turned his head and said, "I will not use tracking methods on my teammates."

Martian Manhunter gave a Batman-esque look of disapproval.

Chen Tao said nothing.

As they walked, they had almost reached the Justice League's reception hall.

"...Okay, that's right." Chen Tao finally raised his hands and admitted this.

After understanding the general situation, Chen Tao passed Martian Manhunter, took the lead, and walked directly towards the hall. When his back was turned to Martian Manhunter, Chen Tao frowned, looking thoughtful.

The problem Martian Manhunter mentioned is indeed serious. Many people think that Aquaman Arthur Curry is the least valued character in Justice League, and even give him nicknames such as Fish Talk Man, but many people actually forget that in a certain timeline , the war between Atlantis and Paradise Island almost destroyed the world.

Chen Tao has been supporting Aquaman Arthur’s plan to establish real diplomatic relations between Atlantis and mankind. When the Justice League was first established, he even went so far as to recruit Aquaman Arthur Curry for this purpose——

He plans to help Neptune conquer the Atlanteans, and then keep increasing the favorability of the Atlanteans. The final goal is to attract all Atlanteans to use them as batteries.

Um...this may sound like a villain's statement, but the Atlanteans are a group of real little supermen. Even the most ordinary Atlanteans can completely destroy humans with their physical fitness and strength. The strongest athletes, of course, do not include villains like the sports master or javelin captain who are former Olympic gold medal athletes.

Not only when he knew that he had to face the Anti-Monitor, but since he discovered that someone could help him share his power by pulling fibers, Chen Tao has been consciously looking for targets to help him share his power, including Neptune and Atlantis. This person is the potential living battery target that he started planning and preparing early.
