Chapter seven hundred and sixty-eight you grow up, I can't recognize you
Outside the cave, a monster from the Haigou tribe lurks and approaches the entrance of the cave. Its whole body is as white as a withered bone. If you look closely, you can see that it is really a withered bone from the Haigou tribe.
The visitor is Queen Atlanna. She is wearing armor made from the corpses of Trench Clan monsters, and is wrapped tightly from head to toe.
With her unusual sense of perception, Atlanna was keenly aware that there were three strangers on the island. Two of them were Atlanteans, and the other one...may be a mainlander.
Having not seen a living person for 20 years, it is impossible not to be excited. After all, loneliness makes people crazy, but Atlanna did not dare to approach because she knew very well the purpose of outsiders entering the island.
Find the trident!
Anyone who can pass through the Haigou tribe's territory and successfully enter the world of the "Earth's Core Hidden Sea" has no doubt about their strength and luck.
When three people appear at the same time, luck is greatly reduced. It only shows that these three people have extremely strong strength.
In other words, she couldn't afford to offend anyone, so she chose to wait and see what happened, confirming the identity of the other party first, hoping that he would not be an enemy.
Just as Atlanna was thinking calmly, lurking carefully, and approaching slowly, a stream of water shot out of the cave at an extremely fast speed. Before she could react, it wrapped around her waist and dragged her in.
.
In the blink of an eye, three more people appeared in front of Atlanna, a male human on land, a red-haired Atlantean female, and... a new breed of Atlantean male.
Russell was automatically ignored by Atlanna. Mera was judged by her to be from the Kingdom of Xebel because of her long red hair. Arthur, however, felt inexplicably familiar to her, as if she had seen him somewhere before.
Just when Atlanna frowned and thought hard, savoring this painful familiarity, the bruised and swollen Atlantean man silently stepped forward, took off the Trench Tribe helmet from her head, and after a while, he roared and opened his hands to gesture.
To pounce.
This is not bad!
Atlanna was so frightened that her face turned pale. She was so familiar that touching her was too much.
At this time, she suddenly noticed that the water on her body had loosened. She was freed from the confinement and had no time to think about the reason. Her eyes flashed with a fierce light, and she dwarfed to avoid the pig-headed man's bear hug.
She deflected her body, used her waist and hips as a pivot, and quickly and fiercely kicked out from the side, hitting the pig-headed man in the face, knocking him away, and knocking down a ruins pillar with a bang.
"Good work!"
Russell clapped his hands repeatedly. Although he didn't know what happened, this side kick was really cool, and Queen Atlanna's legs were really long, a few centimeters longer than Diana.
Starting at least 1.8 meters...
Russell made up his mind that he would never appear in the same frame as her again.
Mera: "..."
Who can tell her how the situation will develop, so that the tears of reunion will turn into a mother kicking her son in the face as soon as they meet each other, and after kicking him, he will look like he should be.
Mera felt that she should say something, otherwise Arthur would go crazy. She coughed lightly, took two steps forward and said to Atlanna, who was on full alert: "Your Majesty, I am Princess Mera of the Kingdom of Zebel.
Do you still remember me?"
"Mera!"
Atlanna's eyes lit up, she put down her guard and stepped forward to hug Mera into her arms: "Good boy, why are you here? You shouldn't be here."
"Ahhhhhhh"
"No, I think it's better for you to care about Arthur."
Mera's eyebrows jumped wildly. For the first time, she knew that the cry of a big man could be so heartbreaking, especially the grievance mixed in the cry. It was really...
Fortunately she held back!
"Arthur!?"
Atlanna froze on the spot, trembling and said: "Is it my son Arthur? He is here too? Where is he... Could it be that..."
At the end of her words, Atlanna seemed to have thought of something. That familiar feeling was a family relationship that was thicker than water. He was her own son!
Mera nodded and added a stab in a low voice: "Yes, that's him."
"hiss!!"
Atlanna took a breath and fantasized about meeting her son countless times, but the current situation had never happened before.
Can't even think about it!
She stumbled into the ruins and dug out the pig's head... no, her crying son.
"Arthur, I didn't know it was you. If I knew, I definitely wouldn't do this. I was scared!"
Atlanna cried silently, hugged Arthur's head, kissed his forehead, and then hugged him.
"It's okay, it was my fault first."
At this point, what can Arthur say? With his current appearance, let alone his mother, whom he has not seen for more than twenty years, even his father, whom he has been with day and night, cannot recognize her.
But, it’s so aggrieved!
Obviously, on TV and in novels, even if there are decades apart, even if the appearance changes drastically, the mother can recognize her son at a glance, why can't he alone?
"Ahhhhh"
Arthur hugged his mother and cried loudly, trying to vent his grievances. Atlanna cried very reservedly at first, but after a while, maternal love overflowed, and both of them cried louder than the other.
Finally, the tears representing grievances were finished, and Arthur's tear glands began to produce tears called "missing", and he started the second wave of howling.
"It's so touching, this is love!" Russell sighed and secretly wiped the corners of his eyes.
Are those crocodile tears?
Mera complained in her heart, if it weren't for Russell's existence, this scene would have been really touching, but now, thinking about the previous scene, being able to hold back laughter is a sign of respect for family ties.
Shu Meera bluntly said that it's not that she is cold-blooded, but that she really can't feel the tears!
After a while, the crying scene ended.
Atlanna touched her son's incredibly swollen face and felt that he was getting more and more handsome as he looked at her. She said with emotion: "Arthur, when you grow up, I won't recognize you anymore!"
"It's normal not to recognize..."
Arthur's breath froze, he laughed awkwardly, and looked at his mother's youthful face, which remained unchanged: "You too... you are still so young."
Atlanteans have different physiques than ordinary people. Take Queen Atlanna as an example. Time is frozen on her body, but she is indeed old and her long golden hair has turned gray.
"Forgive me, Arthur, I left to protect you and your father."
Atlanna said tremblingly: "Your father, is he okay?"
"He has been waiting for you. He will go to the dock every morning to wait."
Arthur's eyes blurred with tears: "Why don't you go back, even once? I always thought you were dead, and I still dare not tell my father about it."
Speaking of this, Atlanna wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said solemnly: "Because the door into the underground is one-way, you can only get out with the trident, but the trident is guarded by Karason. The legendary sea
The monster is real, in the deep sea behind the waterfall."
Arthur was confused. Although he didn't know what Karason was, Atlanna's expression was solemn, and she must be a very powerful monster.
"The sea monster Karason, the legendary sea monster actually protects the trident..."
Mera couldn't figure out why the two were connected, but she couldn't leave without getting the trident. Even the legendary sea monster had to bravely break through.
"Let's go together!"
Mera made up her mind and said to Arthur: "We came here for the trident, there is no reason to retreat."
"No, this is too dangerous. You can't defeat Karason. I have tried countless times."
Atlanna touched Arthur's face, closed her eyes and shook her head, suppressing the thought of drama, and said solemnly: "Karassen only allows real kings to pass, and only real kings can lift the trident.
"
Plop!
The water pool behind the waterfall splashed with waves, causing the three of them to look over. Russell dropped a boulder to measure the depth, and then jumped in.
"..."x3
Atlanna looked at this scene dumbfounded: "Arthur, is that your human friend?"
"Well, that's right. It's because of me that I fell like this."
"Then you hurry up and stop him, otherwise Karason will treat him like food and eat him alive!" Atlanna hurriedly reminded him as she looked at Arthur who was standing there stupidly.
"No, I think it's more likely that he ate Karason alive as food!"
After Arthur finished speaking, he looked at Mera and they both nodded, rushed into the waterfall together, and dived into the sea along the deep pool.
"Damn it, why are young people today so impulsive..." Atlanna gritted her teeth, then jumped into the pool.
…
The cave in the pool leads directly to the deep underground sea. Russell dived under the water and soon came to a dilapidated and desolate ruins.
He raised his hand and waved away the sea water blocking his way, and at a glance he saw the bones of the Atlantean emperor sitting on the throne...
His whole body is covered in golden scales, symbolizing his noble royal power. His limbs are covered with green armor. His long hair and green cloak dance with the water waves. He is sitting on the throne holding a sacred trident in both hands. Although he has been alive and dead for many years, only a skeleton is left.
It still carries an inviolable majesty.
The surrounding ruins seemed to be the former Atlantis palace, which made Russell think about it. The emperor's self-exile seemed not that simple, and there might be a subplot in it.
For example, the culprit responsible for the sinking of Atlantis was a god who thought about problems with his lower body.
Just as Russell stepped towards the throne, the ground of the ruins rumbled and trembled, and the seawater stirred up the soil, making the surrounding area turbid and invisible.
Russell frowned and waved his hand to drain out all the seawater in the ruins, creating an area with thin air.
At this time, the three Arthurs also arrived at the ruins and saw Russell running up in a hurry.
"Quick, Karason has woken up. He will not allow humans to approach the trident. Young man, please leave as soon as possible?" Atlanna kindly advised. After all, she is Arthur's friend, and she cannot just sit idly by.
"leave?"
Russell curled his lips and stared at the deep black sea outside the water curtain: "Just rely on it?"
"Yes, Karason is the guardian of the Trident, and only a true king can be recognized by it."
"No, apart from the king, a person with a big fist can also be recognized by it."
Russell grinned: "What a coincidence, my fist is very big!"
