Chapter 866 Calling Your Name (5)
Latest website:
The city of Atlantis is like a giant 'aquarium' under the sea.
The entire city is protected by a transparent energy shield. Seawater and pressure are completely isolated by that shield. When you look up, you can see countless schools of swimming fish. Moreover, the structure of the entire city is different from what you imagined. There is nothing ancient about it. breath.
On the contrary, there is even a futuristic sci-fi style.
There are many high-rise buildings, wide roads, and many translucent, pipe-like tunnels and bridges erected in mid-air. The means of transportation are also very strange, most of which are undersea creatures and semi-mechanical structures.
The city of Atlantis is a circular structure with three areas in total.
The central area of the ring city is inhabited by the royal family of Atlantis. It is said that the royal family's bloodline comes from Poseidon, and they are the descendants of Poseidon, the god of the sea, who originally ruled and established the city of Atlantis.
After the man expressed his willingness to help Atlantis solve the crisis, Marina immediately said there was no need to be too anxious, and warmly invited the two of them to rest in Atlantis for two days and accept Atlantis's invitation. of apology.
Men's evaluation of Marina is that she is a very smart and politically savvy woman.
After seeing Namor being severely injured by the trident, he immediately judged that Atlantis was at a disadvantage. He stepped forward in time to stop the expanding battle to avoid causing more losses. At the same time, he deliberately lowered his stance and used the word "misunderstanding" to resolve it. The fight between Namor and him.
It can be said that it was precisely because of Marina that Atlantis was saved from destruction.
Otherwise, with a man's personality, he would never mind destroying this underwater civilization while searching for Diamu.
Although Namor was extremely reluctant, he knew that he had done something wrong this time, so he invited them to the banquet to express his apology.
Anyway, there was still some time before the mission deadline, and the man didn’t mind taking Yvette for a few more days, so he agreed to the invitation of the two of them, took a transparent vehicle that looked like a jellyfish, and headed to the central area of Atlantis. .
Marina was very enthusiastic along the way and kept introducing Atlantis to the two of them.
The man listened indifferently and leaned against the window to look at the scenery outside. Yvette was very interested and asked a few questions from time to time. She and Marina quickly got into a group, and the two women chatted non-stop.
The jellyfish moved forward along the transparent tunnel set up in mid-air. On the way, the man saw a bronze temple, which seemed a bit familiar and he couldn't help but frown slightly: "That temple...was it built by you Atlanteans? "
"That's right, that's the origin of Atlantis." Although Namor was grumpy, he also knew that he needed help from others, so he kept his posture very low and explained: "It is said that Atlantis was originally A civilization was gradually built around that temple."
"Oh, the one enshrined there must be Poseidon, the God of the Sea?"
The man suddenly felt bored and could already guess the next plot.
"..."
The strange thing is that when this was mentioned, both Marina and Namor fell into silence.
Seeing the strange reactions of the two men, the man couldn't help but laugh and said: "Is it possible that the one enshrined in your temple in Atlantis is not Poseidon, the god of the sea?"
Namor's face became even weirder and he didn't answer his question.
"Ahem..."
Marina coughed twice and looked a little embarrassed. She glanced at Namor next to her and said, "You two are guests of Atlantis. I shouldn't tell you this matter, but... .Since you are willing to help Atlantis, I can’t tell you.”
"you are right."
Since Marina said so, Namor simply stopped worrying and said bluntly: "Actually, that temple does not worship any gods. There is only a huge bronze stone tablet inside, which records some ancient words that cannot be deciphered. .”
"Wait a minute, you just seemed to say that Atlantis originated from that temple?"
The man felt his thoughts were a little confused and said, "Since Atlantis originated from that temple, and Poseidon was never worshiped in the temple, why do you still call yourselves descendants of Poseidon?"
Namor rubbed his temples and said, "Let Marina explain it to you. I just became king not long ago and I am not familiar with this history."
"Actually, we were not called Atlantis before we sank to the bottom of the sea."
Marina looked at the temple through the jellyfish, her eyes blurred as if she was lost in memories, and she slowly said: "The original name of this city has long been lost in the history before the sinking, and most of it was after the sinking. matter."
"So, you don't know either?" the man asked.
"That's not all, at least some are left behind, although they are incomplete."
Marina took a breath and said slowly: "Before Atlantis sank to the bottom of the sea, it was an extremely glorious civilization. However, it experienced an unbelievable ordeal and was finally submerged by a great flood. It has since sunk. It’s under the sea.”
"...Ten thousand years ago, did God launch a great flood to cleanse sin?"
The man frowned deeply. It was difficult not to think of that civilization at such a sensitive time point.
"You... seem to be very interested in our history?" Marina asked tentatively.
"I once...encountered the same bronze building." The man thought for a moment and said, "Can you let me go in and have a look? I want to take a look at that stone monument, maybe I can find some clues."
"This..." Marina hesitated and said awkwardly: "That temple is the core of Atlantis. Only the king and the high priest can come and go at will. Even members of the royal family cannot enter without authorization. .”
"Don't look at me. Even if I agree, you can't get in."
Namor spread his hands, leaned on the soft cushion, and said helplessly: "The Great Temple of Atlantis can only be entered with the permission of the high priest. Otherwise, even if I am the king, I will not be able to wander in casually."
The man looked at the two of them with a half-smile, and tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, making a crisp 'click' sound.
Yvette felt something was wrong in the atmosphere, so she tugged on the man's sleeve and shrank into his arms, staring back and forth at Namor and Marina's faces with a pair of big dark eyes.
"I don't like wasting time."
The man smiled and said slowly: "So I will be more direct. Either you let me in, or I will break in by myself. The choice is yours."
"you!"
Namor, who had a hot temper, his eyes turned cold when he heard this, and his anger seemed to burst out.
"Before taking action, it's best to think through the consequences."
The man's eyes sank slightly, and the air around him suddenly dropped a lot, and an invisible sense of oppression filled the air: "The first time I could treat it as a misunderstanding and ignore it, but the second time... it was a sign of pressure on me. War has been declared.”
Namor suddenly felt a chill all over his body. He felt an immense pressure falling on him, and it was very difficult to breathe for a while.
It felt like he was looking up to a great, superior god. He was so small and weak that he was no better than an ant. He could be easily crushed to death anytime and anywhere. Even resisting was a luxury.
"Don't be impulsive, Namor!"
Marina's face turned pale, she quickly grabbed Namor, lowered her posture and begged: "Please don't be angry, we can't make the decision on this matter, can you let us discuss it with the high priest?"
"Of course it's no problem. After all, I'm not an unreasonable person."
The man's cold eyes disappeared, revealing a warm and gentle smile: "You only have one day, tell me the results of the discussion."
"yes......"
Marina looked bitter and could only nod in agreement.
The terrifying pressure disappeared, and Namor was suddenly relieved. He was panting like a cow and sweating like rain. He was trembling with fear. His eyes when he looked at the man again were filled with unspeakable fear.
This feeling...can't be wrong!
He...no, it should be 'He', a real God!
