Marvel: Son of Tomorrow

Chapter 51: Fierce Battle and Mera's Sacrifice

In the palace of Paradise Island, Mera, Queen of Atlantis, and Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons, stood at the highest point, watching the war that was now spreading throughout Paradise Island.

"Where's Diana? Don't we need her to help with the defense?"

Mera asked this question, the answer to which she already knew, but more importantly, she wanted to see what choices the Amazons would make when faced with life and death.

As long as Wonder Woman comes back and protects Paradise Island wholeheartedly and cooperates with the Amazon warriors, even if Superman returns, she can protect Paradise Island and keep the Amazon people alive.

And the price is nothing more than the lives of ordinary survivors.

Such a price may seem high, but when people are really in a critical situation, anything is possible.

Hippolyta naturally understood the meaning of Mera's question. Unlike the Amazons, the Atlanteans were almost dead in name only at this time. Arthur, as the king of Atlantis, was almost one of the first people infected after the virus broke out. The Atlanteans today no longer have their homes.

Under such circumstances, it is not difficult to understand why Mera became extreme.

Hippolyta naturally would not be angry about this, but calmly stated the decision made by all the Amazons.

"Diana has her own battle..."

"Really? Looks like I can't embarrass the Atlanteans anymore."

Mera took a step forward and raised her hands high, and her control over the ocean took effect at this time.

The overwhelming sea water rose from all directions, dispersing the large number of Atlantis infected people who were invading Paradise.

Finally, these water flows finally condensed in the sky to form a huge water ball, and in the center of the water ball was the figure of Aquaman Arthur.

"Arthur..."

The last trace of love for Arthur in Mera's eyes disappeared. She waved her hand and smashed the water ball together with Arthur in it to the ground. At the same time, she took out a trident similar to Arthur's from the water and fought with the opponent.

The queen has taken the stage in person. The remaining Atlanteans who had lost their homes seemed to have found the motivation to move forward again. They picked up the weapons provided by Paradise Island and wielded their blades against their former friends and family members.

After all, most of the infected people led by Arthur are Atlanteans, and the number of Atlanteans is not large. With the joint efforts of the heroes, Amazons and Atlanteans, the war situation seems to be turning for the better.

Until one person's sacrifice.

After all, Mera was no match for Arthur. The trident in her hand was just a replica and did not have as powerful as the trident in Arthur's hand.

Arthur swung the trident, and the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. Lightning struck Mera from the sky. The huge impact made the great queen in the eyes of the Atlanteans fly backwards and fall heavily to the ground, as if she had lost all her strength.

"Sea Queen!"

When Storm Jas saw Mera at the end and the infected Arthur getting closer and closer to her, he rushed over anxiously and used his ability to control the sea to create a huge tsunami to repel Arthur.

But Arthur is Aquaman, and this has not changed even if he is infected and controlled by the virus.

With a wave of the Poseidon trident in his hand, the tsunami controlled by Jia Si instantly exploded and turned into raindrops all over the sky, soaking everyone present.

"Get out of the rain!"

Seeing this scene, Clark was shocked and immediately rushed to the sky above the battlefield where the most Amazon warriors gathered. He straightened his chest and blew out a strong airflow with all his strength, blowing away all the raindrops that were about to fall.

The reason for doing this is that at the time of Arthur's attack, the sea water near Paradise Island is already filled with the blood of infected people, and the viruses in this blood are the truly deadly things.

But Clark alone could not protect the entire Paradise Island. Some people were lucky enough not to be infected by the virus-filled raindrops, but many people still had the raindrops drip into their eyes and mouths, and after a series of screams, they joined the ranks of the infected.

"Damn it!"

Clark knew that Arthur would often use this trick from now on, so he immediately planned to rush up to stop Arthur. Even though he was probably no match for Arthur, he had no other choice.

Just as Clark was about to move, a shield suddenly flew over and was subconsciously grabbed by Clark.

"this..."

Turning around, Clark's eyes were suddenly filled with sadness, because on the battlefield not far away, an infected Amazon warrior was constantly roaring at him.

"Shyvana..."

Not long ago, I was making a bet with myself on who would survive to the end, but I didn’t expect that I would win so soon.

Clark closed his eyes in pain. Since he came into this world and met Superman, even if the virus destroyed the entire human society, even if Black Adam's magic lightning hit him, even if the Martian Manhunter almost crushed him to death in the deep sea, Clark had never felt so desperate.

But there was no time for Clark to grieve.

When Clark opened his eyes again, a strong red light flashed in his eyes. The violent emotional fluctuations made him, as a Kryptonian, instinctively begin to absorb a large amount of solar energy released from the inside of the armor. The thermal vision, which was several times stronger than before, pierced through Shyvana's heart in the blink of an eye.

"Rest in peace...Shyvana..."

At the same time that Clark was interrupted by this episode, Sea Storm Jas had been pierced through the chest by Arthur's trident. Although he was not infected, he lost his life.

In this way, the infected Arthur finally came to Mera and raised the trident in his hand high to the woman he once loved most.

But just as he was about to take action, Mera suddenly stepped forward and put her arms around Arthur's waist.

The infected Arthur instinctively felt something was wrong, and your trident in his hand pierced Mera directly through the back.

But even so, Mera showed no signs of letting up.

"Die with me, Arthur..."

Mera knew that she would never be Arthur's opponent in a head-on battle, and her ability to control water was nothing compared to the Trident of Poseidon in Arthur's hand. However, the water in only one place was completely controlled by Mera, and Arthur could not suppress it.

That is, her own blood.

After saying her final goodbye to Arthur, Mera's body suddenly began to swell. She could control the water in other people's bodies, so controlling the water in her own body would be a piece of cake for her.

The beautiful appearance became bloated in an instant, and the next moment, Mera exploded. Every drop of blood was like a sharp sword, with a powerful impact force that could pierce through rocks. And Arthur, at zero distance, really endured this final blow that cost his life.
