"We can't go on like this. We've already lost half of our men." A female agent held the intercom tightly, frowning, and said, "We must request support, otherwise we will all die here."
None of the agents behind her were unharmed. Two of them had injured limbs, one was stabbed in the abdomen with his intestines spilling out, and another had a ruptured lung and could only gasp for air while waiting to die.
"Is it still impossible to contact the second team?" the female agent asked. "Where are Tuman and the others? Why hasn't the power been restored yet?"
"The last time we got through, there was a fierce exchange of gunfire over there. The sound of gunfire was so loud that we couldn't hear what he said."
"Gunshots? But that madman doesn't use a gun. What other monsters are there on this ship?"
The young agent next to him swallowed and said, "It might be the drug dealers. Tuman and the boss said before that the Confession Cartel is a group of hyenas that can never be fed. We strongly request that they not be allowed to board the ship..."
"A bunch of idiots." The female agent cursed, "Forget it, I can't count on them. Where's Amanda? Wasn't she also arranged to go on board? Where is she?"
"I don't know. The communication has never been connected. You know she doesn't usually interact with us."
The female agent cursed again, and after thinking for a while, she said: "Okay, we have to go to the energy warehouse. If the power is not restored, we will not be able to defeat the monster."
"But if you go out, you'll die." An agent with an injured arm had a terrified expression on his face. He said, "That guy outside is not a human at all! Humans can't be that fast!"
"That's just an illusion because you're too scared." The female agent snorted coldly and said, "When did our field team become so afraid of death?"
Another older male agent said, "Although we really can't just sit here and wait for death, if we act rashly, I'm afraid we will suffer heavy losses. Kayla, don't be too impulsive."
The female agent named Kayla sighed, but finally said, "Okay, let's wait here first. We have lost contact, and the headquarters should send support soon. By then..."
pat!
The boat was instantly brightly lit.
Everyone looked up in shock, hope reappearing in their eyes, and Keira was also shocked to see the lights come back on.
She picked up the communication device as quickly as possible, pressed a few buttons and said, "Damn it, still no signal. What the hell is this communication blockade method???"
Kayla threw the communicator to the ground in anger. She sighed and said, "Let's go. I don't know when this damn ship lost power again. Let's find a place to treat the wounds while we can still see. We can't lose any more people on this mission."
The agents looked at the broken communicator with some horror, but they had no time to think about it. The injured agents finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They believed that the reason they were chased by the monster without any chance of fighting back was mainly because there was a complete power outage on the ship, there was no light at all, and they were not wearing night vision equipment.
Without vision, humans would lose almost all their combat effectiveness, but that madman could obviously see, so he caught them off guard and caused them to suffer heavy losses.
Those who were lightly injured among them didn't actually fight with the monster. They were just bumped or hurt during the fight because they couldn't see. Now they were electrocuted, so even if they couldn't win, at least they could run away.
And just like Kayla said, they were all injured and disabled, and if they didn't find a way to deal with it quickly, they would just wait to die, and no one wanted to die, so they unanimously decided to move quickly while there was still light.
Kayla led a group of agents who had suffered heavy losses back to the corridor, but the light that should have brought them warmth and a sense of security now seemed particularly pale and had a peculiar chill.
Suddenly, a long shadow appeared at the end of the corridor. Everyone held their breath. The moment the octopus mask appeared, they didn't even have time to tighten their weapons. With a bang, the male agent on the wing was grabbed and hit the wall with his head.
In just one move, the brain drew an almost perfect flower shape on the wall.
The agents began to scream and run away, but those who were injured could not escape at all. They died tragically within ten seconds. Those who managed to run a few steps were quickly caught up and executed.
Seeing her last companion die at the hands of the monster, the leading female agent Kayla showed a strange smile.
"Long time no see, Professor Schiller." Keira, who was lying in the corner, said, "Although you may not be able to hear me, thank you for saying hello to my teacher Alfred and saying goodbye to him for me."
The loss of so many personnel was enough to overwhelm the FBI's operations at home and abroad, and they were unable to extend their reach for a long time.
Facing Schiller who was getting closer and closer, Kayla sighed and clenched the knife in her hand, but did not aim it at Schiller. Instead, she cut a bloody mark along the bottom of her ear and along her jaw, and stuffed her finger into the gap in the flesh. She had to make the last preparation before death.
She had to peel off her own face to prevent Schiller from recognizing her when he woke up after killing her. After all, Schiller knew her KGB identity. No matter what the circumstances, killing one's own comrade could cause a great blow to the other party, so it was better not to know.
Just as she exerted a little force with her fingers, the boat shook violently, and the unprepared Kira was thrown to the ground, and the blade flew out.
Schiller was also shaken to the ground, and the mask on his face fell off. Both of them tried to struggle to get up, but there was another more violent shake, and they slid from one end of the corridor to the other.
The people in the two rooms were also pushed against the wall on one side. Just when they were wondering if the ship was going to capsize, a roar accompanied by surging waves resounded around the cruise ship.
"Schiller!!! You despicable person!!!"
The sound was somewhat unfamiliar, and no one present had ever heard it before, but the boat soon regained stability and even started.
Both Bat and Bruce woke up. They walked up the staff passage, opened the door and looked outside, and found a strong man floating on the sea.
Schiller stood at the front of the deck, seemingly regaining his sanity, but unsure of the personality controlling the body.
"Om." Schiller called out his name, but quickly said, "Or should I call you... Atlan?"
Orm sat on the high throne of the waves, his face full of anger and arrogance. He stood up and raised the trident in his hand. Lightning surrounded it and the waves roared angrily.
"You damn thief, you teamed up with Atlanna to steal my power!!!"
"You're not bad either. You used your power to curse me and made me seasick."
As soon as Schiller opened his mouth, others knew that this was not arrogance, but greed.
"This is the will of the sea." Atlan's voice came from Om's mouth, "You disobeyed and betrayed the sea, this is the punishment you deserve!"
"I told you, you don't represent the ocean."
"You are all damn thieves!!" Atlan finally couldn't bear it anymore. A huge shadow appeared from behind Om, and huge waves were surging behind him, almost forming a giant curtain that was about to swallow up the city.
This place is not far from Gotham, and the citizens were all outside partying. When they saw the wonders on the sea, they stopped, took out their phones to take pictures, or discussed with people around them what kind of show this was.
"Those despicable Atlanteans stole my throne! And you and that damn bitch cheated me of my power, you both deserve to die!!!"
"Enough, Atlantis." Another voice sounded, and everyone saw that on the other side of the huge wave curtain, another higher wave rose up, and Arthur and the Atlantis army appeared together.
"Dead King, it's time to end your feud with Orin. Let go of Orm, withdraw your power, and don't try to use it to provoke a war on land and sea." Arthur said in a deep voice.
"You betrayed me!" Atlan's voice revealed endless anger, "Olin killed all my relatives and took away my throne!"
"But you also sank Atlantis." Arthur looked at Atlan and said, "You turned the once most glorious land kingdom into a sea kingdom. The grudges in Atlantis have nothing to do with any land dwellers. I am the son of Atlanna, the last queen of Atlantis, and the future king of Atlantis. If you want revenge, I am always here to accompany you."
"You are as shameless as your mother." Atlan's voice echoed angrily, "She lied to me, she let a damned land man steal half of my power!!!"
Arthur and Atlan looked down at Schiller on the deck at the same time.
"I think the word stealing is debatable." Schiller snapped his fingers, took a deep breath, let the gray mist restore his body and said, "From what I understand, I made a deal with Atlanna. I got the power provided by Atlantis and ensured that a certain mysterious dark force would no longer invade the ocean from Gotham."
“That’s my power!!!”
"I'm sorry, but I don't know." Schiller shook his head and said, "Atlanna told me that this is the power of Atlantis, and as a landman, I have no idea what this power is."
At this time, Arthur spoke up. "I learned from the Queen's diary that you were sleeping in the Mariana Trench, but you never stopped. You kept mentally polluting and manipulating the Atlanteans, causing them to stir up trouble and cause war. She had to do this in order to weaken you."
Atlan sneered, he looked at Arthur and said: "You know nothing at all, Prince of Atlantis, you are destined to suffer the same fate as me."
"My brother Olin and I had a disagreement because of our different attitudes towards foreigners. I believe we should strengthen exchanges with foreigners and tolerate their culture, while Olin thinks intermarriage with foreigners is a shame."
"He betrayed me and killed all my wives and children. I have always wanted revenge, and you are his descendants. I am just taking back what belongs to me."
"I've told you, Atlan, the Atlanteans have become sea people. The days of Atlantis as a land kingdom are over. Any grudges between you and Orin will be settled by us."
"But this damn landman stole my power!"
The problem returned to the starting point, and everyone could understand that what Arthur meant now was that even if you were wronged a long time ago, you should seek revenge on Olin's descendants, and not seek death in front of the people on land.
But Atlan said that my power was stolen. How can I seek revenge on you? Don’t I have to take the power back from the people on land first?
The two sides were in a stalemate for a while.
But when Atlan's eyes swept over Schiller again, he saw the bright smile on Schiller's face.
The next second, Atlan was hit hard.
Back to China!
