American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 296 Easily Taken Down

Xiao Xian looked at Mera, his gaze deep and sharp, and asked, "How is the resurrection of Kordakus progressing?"

Mera's expression changed upon hearing this, a flicker of panic crossing her eyes. Trying to conceal her emotions, she asked, "Kordax wants to be resurrected?"

Seeing her reaction, Xiao Xian's lips twitched, and he sneered, "If he's not going to resurrect, why give you dark magic powers just to amuse you?"

Mera rolled her eyes, indicating that she was unaware of Kodakx's resurrection plan.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xian curled his lip, his tone tinged with impatience: "What do you know? Tell me."

Mera composed herself, looked up and stared directly at Xiao Xian, and said calmly, "You want me to tell you, and I'll tell you? I admit you are indeed a powerful magician, and you are also blessed with the power of a true god, but I have Atlantis behind me, and Atlantis is also protected by the sea god. Don't try to force me."

Xiao Xian's gaze darkened, and he said coldly, "Mera, you don't want everyone to know that you're colluding with the Lost Kingdom, do you?"

Mera's expression changed again upon hearing this, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes, but she still stubbornly retorted, "Don't make things up without evidence. When did I ever collude with the Lost Kingdom?"

Xiao Xian looked at the stubborn Mera and retorted, "You just used necromancy right in front of me."

Mera gazed at the scenery outside the window and said calmly, "No, when did I use necromancy? Let me tell you, defaming royalty is a grave crime. If your Wayne Group still wants to cooperate with Atlantis, you'd better not say things carelessly."

Looking at the stubborn Mera, Xiao Xian sighed helplessly and said, "Then don't blame me."

Mera's expression changed drastically upon hearing this, her voice trembling slightly, "What do you want to do? I am the Queen of Atlantis, and you are just a mere human..."

Selena looked at Xiao Xian, a hint of curiosity in her eyes, and asked, "Could it be that you plan to...?"

Xiao Xian nodded and said, "This method is the fastest and easiest."

Upon hearing this, Mera's face grew even more terrified. She retreated to a corner, staring at Xiao Xian in horror. "What exactly do you want to do?"

The next second, she saw Xiao Xian snap his fingers, and his entire face and demeanor instantly changed dramatically.

In an instant, Xiao Xian transformed from an ordinary-looking man into a stunningly handsome guy who captivated Mera. His features were flawless, his physique tall and athletic, and his eyes deep and alluring.

Just looking at Xiao Xian made Mera's heart race, her breathing quicken, and her body react, as if she wanted to pounce on him and pin him to the ground.

Mera swallowed hard, her eyes filled with shock and confusion. She said with difficulty, "You're not Ah Bin, you're... Xiao Xian?"

Mera's tense demeanor softened instantly, her eyes filled with an irrepressible infatuation. Her slender figure trembled slightly, her wariness turning into longing, and a blush rose on her face.

Almost instantly, Mera was captivated by Xiao Xian's charm, and her attitude towards him underwent a 180-degree change.

Her fiery red hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall, and her azure eyes sparkled with captivating light. Her skin was as white as jade, her figure curvaceous, and her slender waist and long legs were exceptionally alluring.

Mera slowly walked towards Xiao Xian, her eyes filled with tenderness and longing, and said softly, "You are so charming. I am willing to tell you everything, but there are too many things to talk about. Why don't we go back to our room and discuss it slowly?"

As Mera spoke, she deliberately struck various alluring poses, leaning slightly forward to show off her full breasts and captivating curves.

Selena sat on the sofa, watching Mera strike seductive poses, took a sip of her drink, and muttered, "Bitch, I knew this would happen."

Xiao Xian shook his head and said, "Let's talk here, and keep it brief."

Mera nodded and said, "Okay, I'll try to keep it brief."

As Mera spoke, she slowly walked to the table in front of Xiao Xian, lifted her fiery red hair, and her long, flame-like hair shimmered under the light.

Mera leaned forward gently, revealing her full breasts, and said to Xiao Xian in a soft, seductive voice, "As an Atlantean, I'm a little dehydrated. Could you give me some of that wine to replenish my fluids?"

Xiao Xian pointed to the bottle of wine next to Mera's round buttocks and said, "There's wine in here, pour it yourself."

Mera licked her lips, a teasing glint in her eyes. "I only want to drink the one you're holding, is that alright?"

Xiao Xian pursed his lips and said, "No."

Mera sighed helplessly and said, "Alright."

Then, Mera picked up the bottle and took an elegant sip. Her movements were graceful and seductive, but she immediately shook her head and said with a smile, "Drinking like that is too slow. Actually, we Atlanteans can absorb moisture through our skin."

As she spoke, Mera held the bottle to her chest and slowly poured it out.

Golden liquid flowed down Mera's green bodysuit, quickly soaking her clothes.

The liquor gathered into beads on Mera's chest before sliding down her shapely figure, outlining her curvaceous silhouette. Her bodysuit, soaked with the liquor, clung even tighter, making her skin appear as translucent as jade. Her breasts appeared fuller beneath the wet fabric, her waist more slender, and her legs long and alluring.

Mera looked at Xiao Xian seductively, her eyes sparkling with a captivating light, her voice soft and alluring, "As an Atlantean, I feel more comfortable in this wet state."

Selena watched all this coldly, a hint of disdain and contempt in her eyes. Knowing Mera's scheming nature, she said coldly, "You'd better get to the point and stop wasting time."

After pouring the wine, Mera casually took off her shoes, revealing her fair and slender feet.

Mera lightly placed her bare left foot on the table, her toes slightly curled, looking exceptionally alluring. Her right foot rested directly on the armrest of the sofa next to Xiao Xian, the whole movement casual yet brimming with irresistible temptation. Her long, beautiful legs appeared even more captivating against the backdrop of her soaked green bodysuit.

Mera's toes were round and adorable, her insteps smooth and delicate, and her slender ankles looked exceptionally sexy under the light. Mera displayed her beautiful legs and feet without any attempt to hide them, her posture confident and alluring.

"I connected with Kodakx through this green crystal gem," Mera said, deliberately running her fingers lightly across the back of her foot, her eyes alluring as she looked at Xiao Xian. Her voice was soft and seductive, as if whispering a temptation.

"Through this gem, I can summon the spirits of Atlantis to fight for me, and I can also use some dark magic. The price is that the souls of those killed by these spirits will belong to Kirdax."

Xiao Xian's gaze lingered on Mera's beautiful legs and feet, but he remained calm and listened carefully to her story.

"As for resurrecting Kordakus," Mera continued, a hint of unease in her voice.

"Kordax never mentioned it to me. I can't let him be resurrected. After all, it was Arthur's ancestors who sealed Kordakx away, and as Arthur's wife, I would be implicated if Kordakx were to be resurrected."

After saying this, Mera leaned forward slightly, reaching out a hand to gently stroke Xiao Xian's shoulder, her eyes filled with a hint of desire and teasing.

"Let me tell you another secret: although I am Arthur's wife, we have never slept together, not even kissed. I am still a virgin."

Xiao Xian's eyes flickered slightly, and he extended his hand to Mera, saying, "Would you mind if I took this crystal gem?"

Mera smiled, her eyes sparkling with a captivating light, and said softly, "Of course I don't mind."

Mera handed the crystal gem to Xiao Xian, while gently scratching his palm with her fingers. The instant their hands touched, a sensation like an electric current coursed through Mera's body, sending turmoil through her heart once again.

Xiao Xian took the gemstone, put it away, and then said to Mera, "Really? You haven't slept with Arthur yet?"

Mera chuckled, a mischievous and alluring glint in her eyes. "I used to be prejudiced against humans. Of course, I've changed now. I've discovered that not all humans are so bad; some are incredibly wonderful, just like you."

Xiao Xian smiled slightly, then asked, "Do you know anything else about Kodakx?"

Mera shook her head, sighed softly, and said, "That's all I know. I found this crystal in the King's Treasury of Atlantis. I can continue searching later, or you can come with me to the King's Treasury to see if there's anything else you're looking for."

Xiao Xian looked at Mera in surprise and asked doubtfully, "Can you take me into the King's Treasury? Arthur is the King, you are just the Queen, can you bring outsiders in?"

Mera smiled dismissively, a hint of mockery on her face. "Arthur, that guy, doesn't actually have as much power as I do in the country. After all, he's half human, and many ministers and nobles don't like him. I, on the other hand, am the princess of the noble Kingdom of Zebel."

"Also, let me tell you a secret. That guy Aquaman actually went to the aquarium to play with fish. It really disgusts me. With that dark history of him playing with fish, forget about taking you into the King's Treasury. Even if something happened between you and me in front of him, he wouldn't dare say a word."

"I see." He really went to play with fish? The king of the sea in this world is really something. Xiao Xian was speechless upon hearing this.

"Alright, I've told you everything I know. Now, can we get down to business?" Mera said, gently placing her right foot on Xiao Xian's thigh. Her toes curled slightly, as if conveying a silent invitation.

Seeing this, Selena immediately pulled Mera's right leg off Xiao Xian's thigh and coldly said to Mera, "Can't you, the Queen of Atlantis, at least have a little more self-respect?"

Mera looked at Selena without backing down and retorted, "You're still Bruce Wayne's wife, and you're lying in Xiao Xian's arms like this, how dare you say that to me?"

Selena retorted, unconvinced. "Bruce Wayne himself agreed to this. What about you? Did Arthur tell you to seduce Xiao Xian like this?"

Mera raised an eyebrow and sneered, "That good-for-nothing Arthur has no right to tell me what to do."

Seeing the two arguing, Xiao Xian advised, "Stop arguing. I've already discussed it with Selena today, and I'm going to stay with her. Mera, you should go back first."

Upon hearing this, Selena smiled smugly, a glint of victory in her eyes. Mera, on the other hand, seemed somewhat unwilling, her eyes revealing a mixture of disappointment and longing; she was reluctant to leave just like that.

Seeing this, Xiao Xian gently stroked Mera's face and said tenderly, "Your situation isn't urgent; we can talk about it later."

Xiao Xian's fingers gently brushed across Mera's cheek, bringing a warm touch that made Mera's heart tremble slightly.

Upon hearing this, a pleading glint flashed in Mera's eyes, and she whispered, "Then can I just watch from the side?"

After a moment's thought, Xiao Xian agreed, "Alright, you can watch from the side, but keep quiet and don't disturb us."

Mera smiled happily and looked at Xiao Xian, "Thank you, Xiao Xian."

Meanwhile, Bruce Wayne and Aquaman Arthur were discussing how to seduce Mera. Arthur frowned and said:

"I have to find someone handsome, because Mera is obsessed with looks. However, I still don't think the chances are very high, because Mera absolutely hates humans."

Bruce Wayne's eyes lit up, and he suggested:

"It would be better to have Selena take Bin to Atlantis to advance the cooperation between the two sides. This would create plenty of opportunities for Bin and Mera to spend time together. Don't worry, Bin is definitely handsome enough, and he's no ordinary person; he's exceptionally good at cards. He might actually have a chance to win Mera over."

Upon hearing this, Arthur stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "Is Bin the one you posted about on Twitter, Selena's personal assistant, the one who publicly cheated on you online?"

Bruce Wayne's face darkened, and he replied, "Yes, it's him. But he wasn't cuckolded. Don't talk nonsense; that's just what people online say."

Arthur nodded in agreement, saying, "Then let Bin give it a try." Then, Arthur stroked his chin somewhat irritably, saying, "It's really annoying that I have to make Bin play cards with Mera when Mera and I haven't even kissed."

Bruce Wayne looked at Arthur and said meaningfully, "That might not be a bad thing. Maybe we can develop something special."

Looking at Bruce's excited face, Arthur thought helplessly, "Do you think everyone is as perverted as you?" At the same time, Arthur thought of Bruce's wife, Selena's hot body and beautiful face.

Since Bruce has this hobby, perhaps he could too… Thinking this, Arthur asked Bruce, “To advance the plan, I might have a lot of contact with Selena. You don’t mind, do you?”

Bruce Wayne, seeing Arthur's excitement, understood what Arthur was thinking and thought to himself, "You think you can compete with Bin?" But Bruce Wayne still outwardly agreed:

"As long as you don't force her, I'm fine with anything."

Arthur looked at Bruce and said, "Then I won't hold back."

"If I can handle a woman like that pretty boy Ah Bin, it'll be a piece of cake for me," Arthur thought smugly.
