Aquaman swam over, feeling a bit ashamed, and coughed,
"Darkseid, he actually ambushed me, or I would have..."
Mera rolled her eyes, "please, our plan seems to be to find the trident first... What could you do? Even Orm couldn't do anything against Darkseid."
Then she looked at Su Yu, "Su, we—what's next?"
Su Yu looked into the distance, "Darkseid didn't go far, we have to find the golden trident before him."
Hearing this, Arthur shivered, he wanted to live a few more years, "that… I suddenly remembered that I didn't turn off the gas when I went out. If you two go find it, I won't be a third wheel."
Su Yu nodded, "it doesn't matter if you don't go, you are easy to attract attention, but I have a suggestion for you, since you have been targeted by Darkseid, you better run quickly."
"Also, don't go home, lest your father be dragged down by you."
Arthur remembered the fear of being dominated by Darkseid just now, he laughed sheepishly and immediately changed his decision, "haha, how can I let the two of you take risks alone while I do nothing."
Mera took Su Yu's arm, "Su, I suddenly feel that he is very suitable to be the king of Atlantis."
Arthur was taken aback, "is it because I'm handsome?"
Mera glanced at Su Yu's face obsessively, and turned to look at Arthur with contempt, "what are you thinking, I just think you are shameless enough to be king, you're also quite flexible and know when to retreat."
Seeing her act so close to Su Yu, Arthur coughed uncomfortably, "please pay attention to how you act in public, everyone is watching, and it's not good if Orm sees you like this."
Mera raised her swan-like neck, not caring at all, "this princess wants to break through the shackles of arranged marriages and pursue free love!"
Su Yu wrapped his arm around her waist, "let's go, let's find love, no, let's find the golden trident!"
Whoosh~!
The three of them traveled out of the city.
Mera pointed to the underwater cannons on the city wall, "Su, we'll be blown to pieces!"
With a wave of Su Yu's hand, a section of the city wall burst, and the cannon turned into slag!
Seeing the overwhelming power, the soldiers did not dare to chase.
Orm threw away the green algae that was stuck to his hair and said angrily, "I must take revenge!"
Vulko and several councillors quickly persuaded, "Orm, think twice! Even Darkseid had to run from him!"
Orm was so jealous. He could bear being beaten by Darkseid, but he just couldn't bear seeing his fiancee acting like this in front of thousands of people!"
He took out his communicator and made a call, "Hades, Su Yu and Darkseid are looking for the anti-life equation under the sea, please inform them quickly."
Vulko heard everything, 'Hades, the god of the underworld? Are there people or gods stronger than him as well? Things are getting more and more complicated, I hope we can survive this calamity.'
…
The edge of the Sahara Desert.
Su Yu had a video call with Diana, and confirmed that everything was normal at home.
Darkseid completely disappeared.
Diana looked at Mera in the camera, "who is that red-haired woman? She looks so coquettish!"
Su Yu introduced her, "this is princess Mera, the fiancé of King Orm of Atlantis, the sister-in-law of Aquaman, who is running away from her arranged marriage now."
Diana snorted, "the Amazons and Atlantis are mortal enemies. If she dares to come to Gotham, I will blow her up!"
Athena also squeezed in, "sister, who messed with you? I'll beat him for you!"
Su Yu was speechless, "since when did your relationship become so good... I have nothing to do with Mera."
Mera came over, leaned on Su Yu's shoulder, and said with an innocent smile, "hello sisters."
Diana rolled her eyes, "who are you calling sister?"
Athena tried to help, "sister, ignore him and go back to Mount Olympus with me to live a single life."
Diana nodded, but then sighed, "forget it, I have a son to take care of..."
Su Yu wasn't going to let this go, "Athena, just wait for me to come back and take care of you!"
Athena suddenly remembered something and said sternly, "Su, I got news that our uncle Hades recently got in cahoots with the backer behind the Holy See, you have to be careful."
'The backers behind the Holy See? Could it be the Celestials?'
Su Yu nodded, "okay, I get it, you should also pay attention to safety at home, and let me know at any time if something happens."
After closing the video call, Mera's expression shifted and she looked a little sad, "Su, the water element is so scarce here, I'm feeling weak."
Arthur also complained, "you're right, and the sand keeps getting everywhere!"
Su Yu's whole body glowed with golden light, hugging Mera's waist with an arm, and raising Aquaman from the scuff with the other hand.
Whoosh~!
The three flew to the depths of the Sahara Desert!
Not long after, the three came to the place shown on the map, which was still a desert.
Arthur looked around at the endless dessert that was just filled with dunes of sand and complained, "this legend is false. There's nothing but sand here!"
"Aaaaaaah!"
Before he finished his rant, the dune he was standing on swallowed him. The macho screamed like a girl as he kept falling.
Mera rolled her eyes, "he's such a fool, why is the child born from Queen Atlanna this dumb?"
"Su, what should we do? Do we have to slide down too? My skin is so delicate." Seeing that no one was around, Mera began to act coquettishly.
Su Yu squeezed her cheek with his hand, "well, you're right, I could probably squeeze out water from your cheeks"
It was the first time that Mera was touched by a man like this, and her face turned so red that it matched her red hair.
Su Yu grabbed her waist and jumped down, performed the earth escape technique directly, and immediately appeared below.
Arthur felt inexplicably sad when he saw the two hugging each other sweetly.
"That, sister-in-law, you have a marriage contract."
Mera's face paled, but Su Yu gave Arthur a kick, "lead the way ahead, and quickly find clues!"
Mera whispered, "Su, Orm has never treated me badly, I feel like scum, and this will probably lead to a civil war in the sea clans, I don't know what to do."
Su Yu caressed her beautiful red hair, "don't worry, Aum will definitely give you a motive to end the engagement."
Mera's eyes lit up, "you mean we should bait him?"
Su Yu nodded secretly, this princess is indeed a black bellied woman!
The three came to a dusty mechanical device, and Mera plugged in the thing Vulko gave them, but there was no response whatsoever.
Arthur, who had to see them act all lovey dovey all the way, was full of negative energy, "I don't know how much dust has accumulated on this broken thing, it's a waste, let's go home already!"
Su Yu glanced at him, fortunately there was no luggage...
Mera rolled her eyes, waved her hand, and a few drops of water dripped from Aquaman's forehead onto the device.
The device was activated!
Mera laughed, "you have a lot of water in your head."
A tall projection appeared, the first king of Atlantis,
He said a lot, but it can be summed up in that the trident is very important, and shouldn't fall into the hands of the bad guys, then a bottle appeared from a hole, which was the next clue.
Mera was about to look at the map when Su Yu had already opened a portal, targeting Sicily.
"Last time I happened to be here for vacation"
Mera looked at the map, it was really Sicily, "Su, you are so amazing, you actually directly inferred the next destination!"
Seeing her act like a fangirl, Arthur grumbled in annoyance but didn't say anything.
The three crossed the portal.
Su Yu had thought that Sicily at the moment would be desolate, or occupied by parademons.
He really did not expect that there would actually be a lot of people here and it looked very lively.
Many native Italians had fled to the island looking for shelter.
Su Yu also learnt something interesting. There is also a branch of the Holy See here, but they were in exile, and they have even placed a female pope named Marlene.
Marlene was originally a nun in a monastery on the island. She was very beautiful and refused the potential rules of many bishops, so she has always been the lowest nun.
During this crisis, she suddenly awakened divine power, slaying demons with a two-handed cross sword and healing people with holy light, leading the remaining Holy See knights to temporarily stabilize Sicily.
Definitely, the main reason they could hold on is that Darkseid didn't bother to send many of his forces here.
