118 Chapter 118-Among us, there is a traitor (1/2)
After an unpleasant conversation with her sister Silver Fox, the White Queen set off to return to the capital of Atlantis, Poseidonia.
As a member of the Hellfire Club and a compatriot of King Namor, she was given a shuttle-shaped flying boat that can only be carried by a nobleman in a robe, which can come and go freely under the deep sea.
”Just like Xiao said, the situation is very tense. When Atlantis and the land world officially start war and consume each other, the mutants will be able to reap the benefits.
The shuttle-shaped flying boat dragged out a wave, bypassing the dark complex terrain, and arrived in the royal city of Poseidonia after more than two hours.
The White Queen slowly reduced her speed and accepted the inspection of the patrol guards.
Through the semi-circular window of the cockpit, she saw a large number of marine life gathering, forming an orderly strange team.
The king of Atlantis is nominally the ruler of the four oceans and the ruler of the seven seas.
With a single order, a huge army of millions or tens of millions can be assembled-this is not an exaggeration.
”The terrestrial world is not united, like open palms, but Atlantis is like a clenched fist, all power is concentrated in one place.”
The White Queen thought of Sebastian Shaw's words, with some emotion.
This azure planet that breeds life has oceans far larger than land.
A huge body of water that occupies about 70% of the earth's surface area is home to incalculable marine life.
After the sinking of Atlantis, the population plummeted by two-thirds. After ten thousand years of development, it returned to normal levels.
The army they control is not actually huge. The so-called superiority in numbers depends more on driving marine life.
Living in the deep sea all year round has allowed the Atlanteans to evolve underwater breathing and night vision capabilities.
They have a natural friendliness to marine life, with a charm +10 affinity aura.
People with different talents can also communicate with and ride with them, become ”sea knights” and join the King's Guards of Poseidonia.
Not only that, the White Queen also learned that the collapse of Atlantis had scattered the original city-states and formed tribal settlements.
Such as killer whale tribe, sea horse tribe, hammerhead shark tribe and so on.
These sea tribes, after several battles, now also agree with Atlantis as the ruler and obey the king's orders.
”Can one person resist a large-scale attack by a country or an army?”
The White Queen shook her head. It was precisely because she could not see the possibility of victory in the land world, she would venture to contact her sister who was in S.H.I.E.L.D., hoping that the other party would leave the center of the whirlpool.
Sebastian Shaw has recently been convening his compatriots, the members of the Hellfire Club, which has grown at an unprecedented rate.
The other party also desperately instilled extreme racial remarks on the young mutants who had joined.
Almost the theory of the Third Reich changed a few key words and then used it.
This makes the White Queen feel a little worried. She has always disapproved of such extreme acts as genocide and genocide.
”I hope I won't get there.”
Arriving at the apron in the western part of Poseidonia, the White Queen put on a strange helmet equipped with breathing equipment, opened the hatch and walked down.
”Xiao, he wants to see you.”
A young man with dyed red hair came over while whistling. He was also wearing a waterproof suit and a breathing device needed by land talents.
”Nova”, a young mutant who can manipulate flames.
The White Queen glanced at the opponent and frowned slightly.
Intuition tells her that the atmosphere seems to be something wrong.
I usually see myself, and the attitude of these newcomers should be more respectful.
In the Hellfire Club, the core members are named after chess pieces.
For example, she is the ”Queen” and Sebastian Shaw is the ”King”.
A hairy kid like Xinxing doesn't even have the qualifications to become a chess piece.
How could you dare to speak to yourself in that frivolous tone just now!
”Is there a problem?”
The White Queen asked rhetorically.
”I went out for a round and I was a little tired. If it's not something important, I'll talk about it later.”
”I don't know. Xiao wants you to go there as soon as possible, don't let him wait for long.”
The red-haired boy Xinxing curled his lips and said with a smile.
The other party's answer made the White Queen even more suspicious.
She doesn't have the moral integrity of a bald professor, and doesn't mind reading other people's thinking and invading consciousness.
”Where did Emma go?”
”Everyone is staying in Atlantis during this time, don't run around, avoid revealing your position!”
”Xinxing, you go to the tarmac to guard! Emma comes back, let her come to see me!”
”Hmph! She is too headstrong sometimes!”
”...”
The White Queen retracted her eyes and withdrew from the spiritual world of the new star.
Intuition tells her that there may be a more serious problem.
But by reading the thinking of the new star, no abnormalities were found.
”Forget it, go and see Xiao directly.”
The White Queen was too lazy to think, her position in the Hellfire Club was detached.
Except that Sebastian Shaw relies on the metal helmet that insulates the spirit, which is immune to his own abilities.
