Chapter 301
He is the captain of the guard; if there is anyone in Atlantis who knows Atlanna's movements best, it is definitely him.
Atlanna sneered: "The second thing I want to say is to cancel the engagement with Orvax."
"No!"
Orvax spoke up again, and others were hesitant, seemingly wanting to say something as well.
Atlanna tapped the trident and said coldly: "I have gained the recognition of King Atlan, obtained the trident, and can command all Atlanteans; I am now the Sea Queen, what qualification do you have to marry me?"
"The engagement was set long ago; wanting to cancel the engagement is a betrayal of your father the King, and a betrayal of the ancient and sacred oath of Atlantis—"
"Boom!"
Atlanna raised the trident and waved it at him, and a ball of water instantly blasted him away.
The few people who originally wanted to speak closed their mouths instantly.
Atlanna looked at the crowd and sneered: "I know that some of you have already betrayed the royal family of Atlantis, have already betrayed me; it doesn't matter, I will give you one last chance."
"Whether to obey me, who possesses the trident and has become the Sea Queen, or to betray your faith and betray Atlantis, you choose for yourselves."
"The engagement is cancelled; who agrees, and who opposes?"
Everyone looked at each other, and for a moment, no one spoke!
Queen Atlanna, who had almost always been a symbolic figure, had incredibly obtained the Neptune Trident and was also aggressively turning her face to cancel the engagement; all of this was too sudden, so sudden that they didn't have any preparation at all...
More importantly, they didn't know how Queen Atlanna got the trident; was it by her own power, or was there someone supporting her from behind?
"Ahem, the matter of cancelling the engagement can be talked about later; Queen Atlanna, the most important thing now is to hope you can tell us the truth: how exactly did you leave Atlantis to go to the Trench Kingdom and obtain the Neptune Trident?"
An old man of the royal family broke the silence and asked the question everyone wanted to know most.
Atlanna shook her head with a sneer: "Is it important? King Atlan didn't say that after getting the Neptune Trident, one has to explain the process, and he certainly didn't say that your recognition is needed!"
"Obey me, or betray me; this is what you should be thinking about!"
The royal old man shook his head slowly: "We don't mean to question you, and the power of the Neptune Trident doesn't need our recognition either, but you want to cancel the engagement as soon as you open your mouth, and the way you obtained the Neptune Trident is unclear; for the sake of Atlantis, we have the right to know the truth, lest—lest—"
"Lest what?"
"Lest you be used by people who have ulterior motives toward Atlantis!"
Good!
What a glib tongue, what a shameless face, what a moral kidnapping!
Atlanna was almost laughed at by anger; whoever can get the Neptune Trident can command all Atlanteans, even the Trench tribe, which cannot think, acknowledges this point.
And you don't acknowledge it?
No, you don't acknowledge the Neptune Trident; you don't acknowledge me, who possesses the Neptune Trident!
Fine, let's take a step back; even if you are really doing it for the good of Atlantis and are worried that I will be used by others, fine! But what does this have to do with me cancelling the engagement?
The engagement is my business; what does it have to do with you?
No, it has something to do with it!
You have already turned to Orvax; if I cancel the engagement, he cannot become a member of the royal family and cannot legitimately control Atlantis.
Although she had long guessed that even if she brought out the trident, there would be people who opposed it, this result still made Atlanna angry and cold-hearted! ===== CHAPTER 303 =====
