Marvel's Superman Chapter 183
Advertisement
The fascinating thing about the future is that it was unpredictable.
The cruelty of reality was to be caught unprepared.
For the young mutants of the Hellfire Club and the undersea people of Atlantis,
Like a bolt from the blue, the shocking news was like a tornado, coming so fast that they weren't even mentally prepared.
"What? My King's back was broken? And he's a cold-blooded butcher who was going to destroy the world?"
"What? My leader blew up and didn't even leave an intact corpse?"
The next day, in the conference room on Liberty Island.
The mutants were specially invited to participate in the negotiations.
There were also Atlanteans who didn't know whether to be happy or angry.
The two looked at each other.
Intense sadness surged up in their hearts.
After just one night, how come it felt like the whole world had changed?
As expected, there were surprises and unexpected outcomes, and you never know which one would come first.
"Mr. Major General, what are you going to do with ... Namor?"
The representative group from Atlantis reacted faster than the mutants whose minds were shaken.
Ultimately, these undersea people were no different from politicians in the land world, accustomed to seeing where the wind was blowing.
After learning of Namor's broken back, they automatically omitted even the honorific title of His Majesty the King and called him by his first name instead.
"The crimes committed by Namor McKenzie are not only against the land world but also Atlantis."
Luke, who directly flew back to Liberty Island, tapped his fingers on the table, but his face didn't show any emotions.
"He was ready to launch the ultimate weapon that could destroy Atlantis and sink the entire North American continent. Do you know how many people would die in this disaster?"
"In addition to the destruction of the land world, the sinking of the continents, the tsunamis and earthquakes would destroy the stable ecology of the marine world ... Namor McKenzie claims that all those marine creatures are his people. Why would a king slaughter his people?"

The Navy Secretary Nimitz, sitting next to him, hissed and drew a breath of cold air.
'Killing people and then destroying their hearts?'
'As expected of Major General Cavill!'
Once the above remarks are sunk in,
Namor would be nailed to the column of shame, associated with all the Kings of Atlantis before him.
The possibility of trying to turn around was slim to none!
"I saw early on that Namor wouldn't make a good King!"
This statement was delivered after the fact.
"That's right! How can a King with impure blood lead the people of Atlantis!"
This was a supporter of the lineage argument.
"Fortunately, Major General has prevented this terrible crisis. Otherwise, the good reputation of Atlantis would probably be destroyed by Namor."
This was someone who jumped on the bandwagon with no moral integrity.
To sum up, after Namor lost power, the top leaders of Atlantis decisively abandoned him.
From this point of view, the blue-skinned underwater people have something in common with the French.
That was, they don't like their own King.
If necessary, they would rather send the other party to the gallows.
"Now that we have reached a preliminary consensus on the disposal of Namor."
Luke cleared his throat and made a final decision, "Then we will wait until the negotiations are over and leave it to the court and jury of Atlantis and the land world to decide."
After exchanging opinions for a while, the Atlantis delegation nodded and agreed.
They didn't have the courage and qualifications to refuse.
Luke often mentioned the ultimate weapon from Atlantis in between his words.
After Namor's defeat, the Continental Shelf Oscillator from the ancient gods naturally became a trophy for the land world.
Thinking about this, the representatives from Atlantis were even more depressed.
They can't help but scold Namor from the bottom of their hearts.

"As for Sebastian Shaw, I said he was a remnant of the Third Reich, a conspirator trying to subvert the rule of the free world, a traitor among the mutants. Nobody would object, would they?"
After talking about Namor, who had fallen from grace and suffered a broken back, Luke swept his eyes back to the Hellfire Club.
The main representatives of the opposing side were the White Queen, who was still dumbfounded, and the younger mutant.
"Major General Cavill, I have something to say..."
As a mutant in the club, second only to the Black King Sebastian Shaw, the White Queen now took the lead.
She lifted her right hand and placed it near her temple.
The psychic ability extended out silently like a tidal wave.
Superman was indeed very powerful, but an invulnerable body may not be the same as an invulnerable mind.
"Oh, Miss Frost, what do you want to say?"
Luke looked at the young White Queen with a smile at the corner of his mouth.
The two of them looked at each other, and the moment they met, their eyes closed.
Bang!
The unstoppable psychic ability seemed to hit a brick wall.
There was neither thought reading nor mind control.
The invisible and insubstantial psychic fluctuations were completely blocked back.
"That hurts!"
Emma, the White Queen, only felt dizzy. Her eyes went dark and almost fell on the table on the spot.
"How is this ... possible?"
She didn't want to believe it, and she couldn't possibly believe it. She had failed!
The main reason why Sebastian Shaw could shield him from her psychic ability was because of the metal helmet made of unknown material.
But what was the Major General sitting in front of her, with a smile on his face, relying on?
He obviously didn't do anything to protect himself!
"Miss Frost, are you all right?"
Luke's tone was slightly concerned as if he had a close relationship with the White Queen.
Immediately afterward, he swept over the rest of the Hellfire Club and continued, "Miss Frost, I would like to thank you for speaking. If it weren't for your initiative to provide information to S.H.I.E.L.D. and expose Sebastian Shaw's plot to destroy the world, I'm afraid I'd still be in the dark."
"If they succeed in activating the Continental Shelf Oscillator, it will cause unpredictable casualties and losses to the land world, as well as Atlantis -- it's no exaggeration to say that you saved the world!"
The Major General was sincere and full of emotion; there was no hint of falsehood.
With that, he stood up and gave a military salute.
Pa pa pa! Pa pa pa!
Seeing Superman take the lead, the rest of the group joined in, applauded, and looked at the White Queen with grateful, admiring eyes.
Only Emma, who was the target, showed a bewildered look.
"I didn't ... I'm not ..."
In a dizzy state, the White Queen's head was full of buzzing noises.
The whole person was like a crashing computer with a burnt-out processor.
It wasn't until the applause died down and the negotiations returned to normal that she reacted to what had happened.
"When did I ever inform you about Sebastian Shaw?"
Facing the huge honor of saving the world,
The White Queen's eyes were dull as if she had lost her ability to think.
