Chapter 280

The higher-ups among the mermaids cried out in shock.

Their faces drained of all color, filled with terror.

The rest of the mermaids.

One and all.

Every face showed panic and dread.

The legend of the Titans.

They had all heard of it.

They were terrifying giants!

Giants who could fight gods!

"Come, let's go see."

Selina took a deep breath.

She steadied her emotions as best she could and spoke.

But her slightly trembling hands betrayed her inner turmoil and a thread of fear.

If it were any other Titan.

She wouldn't have seemed so terrified.

After all—

They were in the lake.

The vast Lake Botis was their greatest defense.

But this was Lei Ting Titan!

Lightning strikes the water.

The power is unimaginable.

Even if it disperses, an attack from a Lei Ting Titan—

Even if weakened to just one percent of its original power—

Is still beyond what most of her people, who are only Rank 3, can withstand!

"Yes."

A dozen or so mermaid high-ups trembled as they replied.

Soon.

They surged out of the lake.

Standing on the lake's surface.

Gazing at the purple giant beside the lake, towering like a mountain.

Gazing at the crackling lightning that made their hairs stand on end.

Their hearts felt as if struck hard.

Their faces turned deathly pale.

"Respected Lei Ting Titan, I am Selina, Queen of the Mermaids."

Selina said hoarsely.

"My lord, the God of Thunder, whose divine might is boundless and glory eternal—will you worship my lord?"

Hyperis looked down at the tiny figures in the lake, his voice booming.

In his hands he held two massive bolts of lightning.

His purple lightning armor made him appear even more majestic.

"May I ask, sir, are you the god worshipped by the priest who came before?"

Selina asked painfully.

"No."

"That was merely a subordinate deity of my lord."

Hyperis rumbled.

His eyes glowed with terrifying lightning:

"I ask again—will you worship my lord?"
