Shadow of the Beautiful World

Retrieving the Titan's remains from Skull Island is going well.

Merlin took the witcher monkey to Dr. Vivienne Graham on the way. When he saw Hanuman, the latter burst into tears, and the monkey who vowed to reform himself was also very excited.

But whether the stubborn guy can quit drinking is unknown.

Merlin returned to the wasteland with the remains, and handed over the two skeletons that had been psychicized to Icarus, so the construction work of the second and third divine creations of the first sequence was immediately put on the agenda.

Merlin gave them great names.

Kong's father's code name is Behemoth.

Kong's mother's code name is Tavare.

The former comes from legends in the Bible, and the latter comes from Egyptian mythology.

They are all nouns taken from myths and legends, and like the No. 1 divine creation Dagon, they symbolize Merlin's expectation of their destructive power.

And the training of the first batch of real machine soul warriors of the Mechanicus is also personally responsible for the training. The first batch of 5 legions, with a total of 150,000 omnics, will soon form combat effectiveness.

Everything is advancing in an orderly manner, but I don't know if it is an illusion.

When Merlin returned to the wasteland, he always felt as if he had forgotten something

But after thinking about it, he felt that he seemed to have done it perfectly.

So after hesitating for a few minutes, he went to the space of the Book of Weishandi, and continued to learn the mysteries of space power with the big tiger Hoggs.

if you feel unimportant

Then don't worry about it!

On the other side, in the subterranean hollow world nearly 5,000 meters below the Pacific Trench, the three heroes of the Justice League who were forgotten by Merlin, and the iron man Tony Stark who was involved in the chaos, are in this strange place. Struggling to survive in the world.

Well, it's an exaggeration to say it was a struggle to survive.

After all, these four people are the most powerful heroes in this world, and the underground world can't stop them.

But the problem is that none of these four people is a real magical character, and they cannot leave this world far away from the surface by teleportation.

And in the underground world full of atomic radiation, communication with the outside world has become extremely difficult.

They are stuck.

And not everyone is in perfect condition.

The air here makes me dizzy. Seriously, I really can't imagine that I just got out of that underground world a while ago, and now I'm in the same situation again.

In the tall, weird arbor forest of the underground world, in a temporary tree house, Tony in a vest chattered endlessly.

While using the crude equipment at hand, he tried to repair his severely corroded armor.

Across from him, lay Bruce Wayne who didn't say a word.

The latter was bitten by a strange mosquito when he entered the jungle, and as a result he developed a high fever, and now he could not speak.

Clark and Diana went out to find a way to leave, hunting along the way, while Tony stretched out his hand and pressed on Bruce's forehead, and found that he still had a high fever, but there was no good way to treat him now.

There is really no way.

The supplies that everyone carried with them were completely corroded in the corrosive liquid in Leviathan's body.

That monster's gastric juices are horrible.

Tony grabbed a wrench made by Clark, and laboriously took apart the helmet of his armor. While looking at the horrible scars corroded on the surface of the armor, he was terrified by what happened a few hours ago.

Originally, everyone agreed that when Leviathan was evacuating, it would leave the monster's body through the monster's water-spraying organ.

But Merlin came too fast, Leviathan was almost subdued by one move, and the pressure generated when the space shattered not only affected the Titan, but also everyone in the Titan.

In that collision of powerful energies, even the strongest Clark was weakened, let alone others.

Diana, who was the most resistant to magic, protected the remaining three people alone, waiting for a safe place in Leviathan's body.

But the mucus secreted by the self-healing ability in Titan not only corroded Bruce's robot bat completely, leaving only the mechanical core and a lot of parts, but also corroded most of Tony's armor.

Fortunately, when they were about to die, the Leviathan who returned to the lair drained the water in his body, and also threw the desperate heroes into this strange world.

If I knew I would leave Icarus's contact information and let that weird omnic girl come to save us, it would be better than the headless flies running around like this now.

It's not the first time Tony has been to the Underworld.

Not long ago, he manipulated the Smash Armor and followed the mechanical team into the underground world, but the problem was that he didn't go too deep into that world that time.

He could only tell Clark and Diana some basic common sense based on the information he wrote down.

For example, there are many ancient creatures living in this world, and the ecosystem here is completely different from that on the surface, so pay extra attention to the high radiation here

Well, that doesn't matter to those two Supermen.

But for ordinary people like Tony and Bruce, this is fatal.

You can't stay here for long.

Tony repaired his mask with what was left of the material, allowing it to filter the air again, and snapped the mask back on his head.

He held a laser cannon weapon module in his palm, and then quickly climbed out along the thick tree trunk. A few minutes later, he returned to the tree house holding a trumpet-shaped flower.

He dripped the water stored in the flower on Bruce's chapped lips little by little, making the comatose, feverish Batman more comfortable.

Ha, who would have thought that the famous Batman is actually Lord Bruce Wayne?

Tony finished feeding Bruce the water, and drank the rest of the water himself. He leaned against the tree house and looked at Bruce lying on the wooden bed, with a weird smile on his face.

At the beginning, when he first met Bruce, he felt that this guy who was very similar to him but had a completely different temperament had a secret.

It turns out his hunch was correct.

Bruce, like him, is a superhero.

But the difference is that Bruce has been disguising his identity and performing his duties as a hero in the dark, while Tony has openly revealed his identity and has become a superhero attracting worldwide attention.

This is probably due to the difference in lifestyle and habits of the two people, which has created two completely different life trajectories.

But to be honest, this leads to the same goal. In a sense, the first half of life and the second half of life of the two people are not smooth sailing, and it is hard to say that they are happy.

It's a pity that we couldn't fight side by side when the Avengers were still around

Tony sat by the bed, he continued to search for useful things from the wreckage of the armor, he said to himself:

We had a fight at that time. I almost killed you, but I was also almost killed by you. This can be regarded as fate.

A few minutes later, just as Tony's babbling to himself had ended, there was a muffled vibration from under the treehouse, as if some large creature was approaching the hiding place.

Tony immediately became vigilant. He held the laser cannon in his palm and poked his head out of the tree house, only to see Clark and Diana returning from hunting.

Well, their prey is indeed different.

A Triceratops that was killed, the ancient creature's neck was twisted, and blood was still dripping from its mouth.

But apart from the two people who went hunting, Tony noticed that there was one more person who came back.

A young man with a lush beard and long hair, carrying a golden trident, looked like a lion, quite majestic.

And he and Clark were talking and laughing, obviously they knew each other before.

Tony! Come down to eat!

Diana yelled towards the tree house. She drew out her Vulcan sword, quickly lit a bonfire, and then took the most tender meat from the Triceratops.

It looks like it's about to have a barbecue.

Clark jumped into the tree house, carried Bruce, who had a high fever, and put him on the ground.

Arthur, come and show him.

Clark beckoned to Arthur, who was leaning to the side, and the latter immediately came over, squatted on the ground, and checked Bruce's injuries.

While helping Diana handle the ingredients, Tony looked at the stranger curiously.

He asked in a low voice to the magical goddess who is very good at sword skills:

Who is that? How did he appear here?

That's Arthur Curry, a superhero active in the waters off Maine.

While cutting the meat with her long sword, Diana replied casually:

He is Merlin's nephew. When he was in San Francisco, he was the one who suppressed Livia's tide in the sea. Without him, Wanda would not be able to hold on alone.

As for why he is here

Wonder Woman shrugged and said to Tony:

It's bad luck. Like us, he was stunned by Leviathan and was swallowed into the monster's stomach earlier than us. However, he can control water, so he is not as embarrassed as us.

Clark and I just met him at the edge of the jungle. You have to thank Arthur. This Triceratops is his prey.

All right.

Tony shrugged. Using his rich experience in partying in the past, he simply processed the cut meat.

They couldn't find any suitable ingredients, so they just skewered the meat directly on the edge of the trident that Arthur put aside. Diana grabbed the heavy thing and started to grill the meat.

Although there is no such thing as spices, the meat of this life-rich creature, even if it is just grilled, is already very delicious.

As for the mutation of radiation, I'm almost starving to death, so I can't think about it that much.

While they were working on the food, Arthur began treating Bruce, who was running a fever.

However, the way he treats is quite hardcore.

I don't have any medicine, so I can only use the water in his body to cool down.

Arthur squatted on the ground and said to Clark beside him:

You hold him down, and I will speed up the water circulation in his body, which can cool him down and speed up the immune system's resistance to the virus, but to be honest, this is just temporarily suppressing the disease.

Arthur is an honest young man, he said to Superman very frankly:

This unlucky guy was bitten by a mosquito in ancient times. Who knows what that mosquito is carrying in its body.

There is no better way.

Clark reached out and pressed Bruce's body, and he said to Arthur:

Go ahead!

ok.

Arthur's finger was on Bruce's forehead, the ability to control water was activated, and the water circulation in Bruce's body began to be accelerated, which would not be a comfortable process.

Just as the blood flow was accelerated, Bruce struggled crazily almost instantly, but was firmly suppressed by Clark.

Ten seconds later, Batman, who was about to collapse in pain, opened his eyes.

His high fever subsided, but a sense of weakness consumed him.

There was residual pain, but that wasn't a problem for Batman, who was used to suffering.

I'm Arthur? Why are you here? Am I hallucinating?

Bruce glanced at Arthur beside him.

He has a close relationship with Merlin, so he naturally knows Merlin's nephew. Facing his question, Arthur shrugged and said helplessly:

It's bad luck, so let's eat.

Arthur picked up the weak Batman, and he said to the others:

After eating, let's go to the nearby underground sea. I found a sea route to the outside world, but I don't know where it will lead, but no matter where it is, it must be much better than this ghost place.

And that monster.

Clark glanced at the direction they had come from, and said:

I don't know when Leviathan will wake up. There are many carnivorous dinosaurs and weird beasts nearby, as well as the powerful nuclear radiation. To be honest, it's really not a good idea to stay here.

Before I leave, I want to collect some samples.

Tony sniffed the meat that was about to be grilled, he swallowed, and said to the others:

It's not just that Bruce may need some materials here to make antidotes, but also the unique ecology of this place, as well as the samples of ancient life, these things are of scientific research value.

Um?

Clark looked at Tony in surprise, and he said:

Why don't I know, when did you become a biologist again?

hehe.

Tony stroked his chin proudly, and said:

I'm sorry, I know a little about everything

I also have a master's degree in biology, so don't be surprised. Although I'm not as versatile as Bruce Banner and Reed Richards in this respect, I'm still better than ordinary people.

Believe me, it's a pity to go back empty-handed after finally coming here.

Against the backdrop of the bonfire, Tony looked back at the ancient jungle behind him, and said:

This is a real treasure trove.

Perhaps here we can discover the scientific path to the future.

It's just taking some samples, and it won't waste everyone's time.
