Chapter 289

~5 min read 913 words

The power of the Lie Force comes from lies; to put it bluntly, the more people who believe in the "lie" of the Wish Stone, the stronger the Lie Force becomes.

Su Quan feels that the Lie Force and the Truth Force of the Lasso of Truth are both types of universal elemental powers that are quite idealistic—they are strong if you believe in them, and weak if you don't.

They are invisible and intangible; without a carrier, they cannot be used, nor can they be measured.

The method of using the Wish Power is the same as the Wish Stone, but the difference is that besides deciding what to take and freely distributing what is taken, Su Quan can also decide for himself whether to activate this ability.

Just like the energy absorption he obtained from Sebastian Shaw before, he can decide whether to turn it on or off. This is also the reason why he would have his clothes shredded during battles previously!

Because he hadn't activated the energy absorption ability, he wasn't passively absorbing the energy and kinetic energy of those who got close to him. As for why?

Hehehe—

Once activated, all passive physical contact would become impossible, and he could forget about saying things like "come up and move yourself," because as soon as the other party tried to do anything and got close, their kinetic energy would be absorbed!

The Wish Power is the same.

If he couldn't switch it on and off freely, who knows when someone might accidentally make a wish while touching him?

Just like the Wish Stone itself, limited by the stone, its freedom is restricted; at most, it just changes the Wish Stone from rigid mechanical operation to intelligent manual operation.

A true tool-man!

Simply put, the Wish Stone has set programs, while the Wish Power is a type of force; there is an essential difference between the two!

If he is willing to spend the time and energy to study and use the Wish Power well, as more and more people make wishes, and more and more people believe that wishes made to him can come true, he could even become like the God of War or the God of Lies—the God of Wishes!

Of course, occasionally acting cool to make the concept of him being omniscient and omnipotent richer and more realistic is enough; the God of Wishes is not his pursuit.

Evening.

Su Quan picked up Helen and Wei Ni Li Ya, and while he was at it, he left an illusion clone of Atlanna in Atlantis and brought her along as well.

Firstly, he wanted her to get to know Dai Anna; after all, there will be plenty of dealings in the future. They are all his own people, good sisters, so getting familiar with each other won't hurt.

Ahem, in terms of status and position, "good sisters" might not be entirely appropriate, but just grasp the spirit of it.

Secondly, Dai Anna and the others need to adapt to human society, and Atlanna needs to as well. At the very least, she needs to know that the ornamental fish she keeps cannot be eaten, and certainly not eaten raw, right?

By the time Dai Anna got home from work, Helen had already prepared a table full of dishes.

Very quickly, she and Atlanna also became familiar with each other.

After the food had been tasted and the wine had gone around three times.

Su Quan beckoned to her, whose face was slightly flushed, preparing to talk to her about going to the Trench Kingdom tomorrow to find the Neptune Trident.

Atlanna swapped seats with Helen and, feeling slightly tipsy, took Su Quan's hand and pressed it against her own face.

In an instant, the expressions of the others at the table turned strange.

They all knew about the relationship between Su Quan and Atlanna; after all, they had lived together for so long, and yesterday was the first time Su Quan had stayed out all night.

Because of various different reasons, they didn't have the thought of wanting to kill Su Quan or Atlanna, but they truly hadn't expected that Atlanna would actually do such a thing!

Well, it wasn't exactly something intolerable or shocking, it was just that in their daily lives, they rarely showed such intimate displays of affection in front of everyone.

Even Helen, who was closest to Su Quan, only did so in private; when everyone was present, she would never be overly intimate.

But Atlanna—

She is the Queen of Atlantis!

A queen!

She actually initiated a face-touching kill!

No wonder her power as queen was snatched away by the captain of the guard, Orvax. Being this cute and womanly, how could she be a queen? How could she make people convinced!

Su Quan was also quite surprised; he hadn't expected that a tipsy Atlanna would have such a contrasting, cute side.

"I'm going to the Trench Kingdom tomorrow to find the Neptune Trident, you—"

"The Neptune Trident is in the Trench Kingdom?!"

Atlanna instantly let go of Su Quan's hand, then sat up straight, and said with a serious face: "I really didn't expect that the Neptune Trident, which has been searched for for so long, would be in the Trench Kingdom. Although the Trench people have gradually devolved into barbaric creatures, they must certainly still remember and recognize the Neptune Trident."

"I'll go with you tomorrow!" ===== CHAPTER 291 =====
