A few minutes later, Shimizu successfully contacted the British commander.
Both sides ceased fire.
This relieved the British Prime Minister, whose term was coming to an end and who was rumored to be living like a pig.
"Oh, it's her, that face... So there really are people who can stay young forever."
The Queen of England said, watching the broadcast.
She was one of the few elderly people who had survived World War II, and as the head of state, even if only symbolically, she had seen a lot of information.
Wonder Woman was active on the battlefields of World War I, which wasn't that long ago for her, but due to the limited means of information dissemination at the time, and the fact that information about supernatural powers was blocked, not many people knew about it.
"I... can I invite this lady, and that war warrior who defended Britain with her, to come here as guests? I would like to award them medals at Buckingham Palace, and perhaps even a peerage."
The Queen of England put down the photo and said to the Prime Minister.
"I regret to inform you, Your Majesty, that they have already left Britain. One has gone to Asia, and the other to America to provide support. What we should do now is meet with the two kings of the undersea people, sign a truce agreement, and have a conversation. In the battle just now, they didn't even use half of their forces. According to them, this is a warning to the land dwellers who are destroying the ocean."
"Oh, well, I'm not against environmental protection. I'll leave the specific details to you, Prime Minister. What I want to know more now is, how is the situation in America? Will their new president rejoin the Paris environmental agreement?"
"Your Majesty, I would also like to see that person make a fool of himself, but now, the situation seems to have changed again."
The Prime Minister put away the documents in his hand and looked at the television in the distance with the Queen.
"Hello, fellow human beings all over the world, I am Luthor."
A shiny bald head appeared on the television screen.
It was Lex Luthor, who had been missing from people's sight for a long time.
He was wearing a heavy suit of armor that emitted a faint green light, but he looked a little disheveled, with a few strands of seaweed wrapped around his head.
But this didn't seem comical.
Because the palm of his hand was glowing green, pointing at a handsome man in silver scale armor.
This man was Orm.
But he was now seriously injured and unconscious, unable to speak.
"I regret that I had to disappear from everyone's eyes for a while because I did something bad with good intentions, but I hope to be forgiven—with him, the leader of these undersea people."
Luthor said to the world through wireless signals with an incredibly sincere expression.
There was no other way; these undersea people had disappointed Luthor.
Relying on his own skills and intelligence, he had secretly infiltrated Atlantis and portrayed himself to Orm as a scholar rejected by human society for his environmentalism, thereby gaining Orm's trust and becoming Orm's secret advisor.
This war, ostensibly planned by Orm, was actually promoted by Luthor, intending to use the technology and power of the Atlanteans to eliminate Superman—although in terms of hard power, they could not pose a great threat to Superman, but with Luthor, a professional targeting Superman, it was not certain.
Relying on his knowledge, Luthor quickly mastered a large amount of Atlantean technology, created the first generation of artificial Kryptonite and armor driven by Kryptonite and high-energy batteries, and integrated some of the technology into Atlantean weapons as an important means of fighting against Superman this time.
He was almost successful at the time!
At that time, Luthor was sitting in the main ship of Atlantis, watching Superman, who was on the verge of death after being hit by the Kryptonite hydrocannon he had modified, and he was so happy that he almost laughed out loud.
Unfortunately, the next Kryptonite hydrocannon was blocked by a big bearded man in golden scale armor holding a golden trident.
In addition to the sudden appearance of the Flash and Batman to save Superman, Luthor decisively activated the backup plan.
If he continued to entangle, Orm's throne might be taken away immediately.
It was better for him, Luthor, to squeeze out the last bit of value and exchange it for a chance to whitewash himself and return to human society.
The others who knew his identity had been eliminated by Luthor.
Not killed, but seriously injured and unconscious like Orm.
If he killed them directly, that would be a real endless feud, the war between humans and the undersea world would not end, and he would form a deadly feud with Atlantis.
Luthor only needed them not to expose him immediately.
The American government would help him with the follow-up matters.
Turning him into a hero who prevented the war between land and sea.
No ruler would allow the existence of a force under his control that could threaten him and was uncontrollable.
Even if you are a superhero, a saint, it won't work.
If there is, they will try their best to control it.
No mistake, one shot, one content, one look!
But if it is still impossible to effectively solve it in a short period of time, they will support another force to compete with it.
Even if it is a little weaker, it doesn't matter, because they will favor one side.
So, who is currently looking more controllable, but also has the ability to compete with these superheroes?
More than one person can see this at first glance.
"Uh... I don't understand."
A certain son of a fisherman holding Poseidon's trident said to Batman with clear and foolish eyes.
"Our plan has to be changed. Originally, we were going to have Arthur use Poseidon's trident to defeat Orm, seize the throne, and stop the war, but now that this has happened, Arthur's ascension is not justified and will not be recognized."
"A king who has lost a battle, or a monarch who has united multiple countries and lost a battle, no matter what the reason, Orm's throne is already unstable. After he recovers, it will not be too late for Arthur to fight for the throne again..."
"Uh... do I really have to go? Isn't the war over? It's not needed, right?"
The big man in golden scale armor scratched his long, flowing hair.
Mera stared at Arthur with dead fish eyes.
"No, I understand Orm. After he recovers, in order to re-secure his throne, he will definitely do some bad things again, and... you have already appeared in everyone's sight. Orm will think that you, his brother, are the biggest threat to his throne. Even if you don't want to compete, he will definitely attack you and the people you care about."
"Okay, then."
Arthur looked around.
The eyes of the battlefield were now all looking here.
Batman, Superman, Flash, Green Arrow, many people on the land side knew.
Mera was the princess of the kingdom of Xebel, Orm's fiancée, and everyone on the Atlantis side knew her.
