Chapter 295
Before the waterfall, Atlanna looked back at Su Quan deeply, and Su Quan nodded encouragingly at her.
With a splash, Atlanna jumped down.
Below the waterfall was a long passage, winding and secluded. Atlanna turned left and right as she dived all the way, and then, suddenly, it opened up, and she arrived at the deep and vast lake bottom.
Buried and standing on the dim lake bottom were various carved stone pillars, and traces of civilization were evident.
Atlanna swam quickly and cautiously, and soon discovered a well-preserved staircase in the middle of the stone pillars or building complex.
Above the staircase was a throne.
On the throne, a corpse sat majestically, hands gripping a golden trident that stood upright, emitting golden light and invisible fluctuations!
Atlanna became solemn, and just as she was about to approach, a loud rumbling sound suddenly came from behind her.
Turning around, she saw flying sand and rolling stones in the distance, and a huge figure emerged faintly in the darkness.
"You, do not belong here."
A deep voice suddenly echoed in Atlanna's mind.
Su Quan?
No, this isn't Su Quan's voice; this is Karathen!
"For so many years, I have guarded this place, guarded the trident, so that those who pretend to be kings cannot succeed. I have seen too many warriors come to challenge, but none have succeeded, and you, are no exception!"
The corner of Atlanna's eye had already seen the piles of white bones nearby.
At this moment, she truly felt fear. Whether it was the piles of white bones or Karathen's massive size, both made her feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
Karathen is too powerful.
In terms of size alone, compared to it, Atlanna is like an ant as small as dust.
Not to mention that it also has a hard shell and countless huge tentacles; no matter how you look at it, there is no hope of winning!
The thought of giving up gradually emerged in her mind, and Atlanna shook her head secretly and forcefully.
Cannot give up!
She didn't come here for herself, but for Atlantis, for Su Quan.
She, wants to become the Sea King!
Atlanna's eyes gradually became firm, and she gripped the five-pronged spear and charged toward Karathen without hesitation, like a launched cannonball.
"Shoo—"
The lake water seemed to be split open, leaving a long trail.
"Boom!"
Atlanna, who had charged over, was swept by its long tentacles before she could even get close to Karathen, and she flew sideways, smashing into a stone pillar not far away.
Immediately after, raging waves and earth-shaking tremors.
Atlanna, who had just gotten up, was once again swiped away by tentacles like mountains.
Once, once, once—
Every time Atlanna got up, she would be swiped away again by Karathen's tentacles at the first opportunity.
She was like a ball that couldn't help itself, being swiped back and forth between Karathen's tentacles and the few remaining stone pillars!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Crushing!
A complete and total crushing!
Regardless of size, speed, or strength, Karathen was far, far more powerful than Atlanna.
Let alone defeating it, even avoiding its attacks seemed to have become a luxury for Atlanna!
Wait!
Why do I have to defeat it?
My goal is the trident. As long as I can get the trident under its guard, it naturally proves that I have passed the test and have the qualifications to become the Sea King!
Atlanna, who finally realized that she had put the cart before the horse, had her eyes light up instantly.
Getting the trident counts as passing Karathen's test; it's not that you have to defeat Karathen to pass the test and then go get the trident!
Atlanna took a deep breath as she watched the tentacles whistling over again, grasped the timing, and took the initiative to crash into them.
Then, borrowing the force to exert force, Atlanna charged toward the trident on the throne at the fastest speed in history.
Closer, closer, getting closer and closer. Just as her hand was about to grab the trident, Karathen's tentacles swiped her away again.
"Boom, boom, boom—" After smashing into several stone pillars in succession, Atlanna finally stopped.
"Just by you, you want to get the trident? Are you worthy?" Karathen's mockery echoed in Atlanna's mind, and then the huge tentacles that covered the sky and sun were raised high and smashed down toward her rapidly.
If this hit, she would undoubtedly die!
Unwillingness and anger erupted completely at this moment. Atlanna knelt on the ground and shouted hysterically toward the sky.
"No!"
"For Atlantis, I must become King!"
"Hum!"
An invisible fluctuation erupted from her body, and the huge tentacles that were about to smash down stopped abruptly.
In the distance, Su Quan, who had been observing in secret, raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
He had previously guessed that Atlanna possessed the ability to communicate with marine life, but it had always been recessive, and she herself didn't know it.
In the movie, she failed to challenge Karathen several times, and the ability didn't manifest. It should be because she wasn't as determined as she is now, right?
