Chapter 156 The Qualifications Of The King
When Arthur heard that Kaylason didn't seem to believe him, he felt a little competitive.
"Okay! Then just watch carefully!"
He turned around and grabbed the trident. He closed his palms and grabbed it easily.
Arthur was overjoyed and was about to pull it out when suddenly an electric current burst out from the halberd shaft, and the trident flashed with white light, sending Arthur flying.
"How could it be?" Arthur didn't expect such a result.
Maybe it was because Vico and Atlanna's tone was too certain, which led him to think that he would definitely be able to get the trident [However, the current situation caught him by surprise.
He couldn't imagine how disappointed his mother and Vico would look after going out for a while. He didn't want to see those looks, so he swam forward with all his strength and wanted to try again.
But Kaylason didn't give him that chance.
"You're so arrogant, boy!"
Huge amounts of tentacles threw Arthur out again, and he was completely unable to resist Kayla Sen's power.
"Your heart is dishonest, Arthur Curry. You may have the potential to become a king, but you are still a little short of it. Think carefully about where you fall short..."
After saying that, Kayla Sen rolled her body, causing a violent current in the water, and directly pushed Arthur out of the water.
"No--!"
Arthur's voice gradually faded away, and the waters became calm again.
Outside, everyone who was waiting suddenly saw the waterfall exploding with water, and a figure flying out from the middle, it was Arthur.
Mera noticed that there was nothing in his hand, and she already had a bad feeling in her heart.
Atlanna and Vico hurried forward and helped him up.
But when he saw Arthur looking like he was greatly shocked, and when he saw that the trident was not in his hand, he understood instantly.
Arthur said frustrated: "I didn't get recognition..."
Atlanna said anxiously: "Didn't Kayla Sen let you get close to the trident?"
"No, it gave me a chance." Arthur shook his head, still looking at the waterfall: It's just that I didn't grasp it myself...
Now everyone is paralyzed. If they don't get the trident, they won't be able to have absolute control over Atlantis.
Although you can still compete for Orm's throne through the "King Challenge", Orm is a warrior who has been trained in the water since he was a child, and his underwater combat effectiveness is very powerful.
Many people don't know that water combat is similar to air combat in that it is three-dimensional, and it is crucial to grasp the sense of direction and three-dimensional space.
But Arthur received most of his training on land, and he was invincible on land, but the land battlefield was flat, completely different from water battles.
Vico had made a mental estimate that if Arthur and Orm fought on land, Arthur would probably win.
But in a battle in the water, Orm will most likely win.
But the battle of kings must be carried out in the water, and there are not many spectators who can breathe on land. They must be more willing to abide by tradition.
Things get tricky.
Mera looked at the scene in front of her with a clear mind. She even thought it was normal for Arthur not to be able to get the trident.
Because so far, she has not seen a trace of the characteristics that a king should have in him.
But she admitted that Arthur should have potential, but she didn't think that he was a "kingdom".
She subconsciously looked at Dane beside her: "What should we do? It seems that the war between the seabed and the surface is inevitable.
"That's not necessarily the case."
To be honest, Dane was a little unexpected about the situation in front of him. He thought Arthur would get the trident as easily as in the movie.
After all, no matter how you look at it, that weapon looks like it was prepared for him on purpose.
Although he knew that the movie must have reduced the difficulty of Arthur a lot, he did not expect that he would not even have the chance to do it again.
But now that he's here, and Arthur can't get it, Dane can't help but be a little curious, is that thing really that difficult?
So he flew up directly, and as soon as the sonic boom sounded, he flew into the waterfall.
Atlanna and Vico were shocked when they saw this scene. What does this mean?
Arthur just scratched his head and said, "If Shazam goes to get it, he should be able to get it, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? That is an artifact passed down from generation to generation by the royal family of Atlantis. It cannot be used without royal blood!" Atlanna was furious.
However, in the water, Dane easily penetrated into the inner hall and saw the throne and the golden trident.
Kayla Sen was just about to go back to sleep, but unexpectedly another guy came in, and he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
‘You’ve already told me that it’s no longer possible, so you don’t listen to me, do you?’
Because it was angry, the tentacles it waved this time were so powerful that the water flow was stirred up and Zhenchen appeared.
Dane instantly noticed someone was attacking him and swam upward to avoid the blow.
He took a closer look and discovered that it was a giant underwater beast.
"Kayla Sen?"
It seemed to have a bad temper. Seeing that Dane had dodged the attack, the next attack came immediately.
Dane easily dodged it again. Kayla Sen was too big, and it was an aquatic creature, so its speed was unusually slow. It was impossible for Dane to hit it even with his eyes closed.
But he also discovered that Kaylasen was deliberately compressing his activity space, which showed that it was also a creature with tactical intelligence.
But Dane is not Arthur, and he will not let it be manipulated.
So when Kayla Sen approached again and tried to use the tentacles to force Dane to retreat, he directly bumped into the tentacles and grabbed him in his arms.
Kayla Sen was stunned for a moment, and she couldn't figure out what this "little thing" wanted to do.
But Dane soon let it know. His hands were like pincers, and his arms clamped tightly on the tentacles.
Then he exerted force, and Kaylasen suddenly felt a huge amount of force pulling it forward.
It has never encountered such a situation since it grew to such a big size, so it didn't react for a while.
And in its stunned effort, Dane had already thrown up the Hot Wheels, spinning huge amounts of Kayla Sen's body around himself.
The water in this sea area was instantly turbid, and it could hardly control its body.
‘This is impossible!’ Kaylason roared crazily.
But to Dane's ears, it was just huge amounts of beastly roars.
Kaylason tried hard to dig his pincers into the ground to stabilize his body, but failed. White thunder lit up on Dane's body, instantly paralyzing him.
Even though this monster has rough skin and thick flesh, it is not immune to magic damage!
Dane was almost done, and suddenly let go. Kayla Sen flew out with the surrounding water bodies, directly smashing the ruins here.
It crashed against the wall, causing huge amounts of shock and turbulence all around.
Even the few people from the Hai clan who were waiting outside the waterfall felt the power of the earthquake and almost lost their footing.
~What is going on?”
"Is there an earthquake?"
However, Mera just stared blankly in the direction of the waterfall, and had a bold guess in her mind. That man wouldn't be fighting Kayla Sen inside, would he?
Within the ruins.
Due to his huge amounts of weight, Kaylason's head was a little unclear after the collision. In this case, it was definitely unable to prevent Dane from approaching the trident.
Dane swam closer to the throne, reached out and grabbed the trident.
no response?
He pulled gently, and the long-dead King Atlan instantly turned into floating catkins in the sea, leaving only a room of yellow-green body armor.
I don’t know what Arthur in the movie thinks. He just wears the clothes that just fell off Deadman’s body...
He raised the trident and waved it. He felt that the weight was still too light, but it fit well with the divine power in his body.
Just as he was turning the trident in his hand, suddenly, a surge of divine power instantly poured into his body, as if something had been activated.
'This feeling....
It was as if he had just gained the power of Shazam, and a wave of energy spread throughout his body.
Then Dane suddenly felt that he could breathe in the water. He let the seawater flow into his lungs and absorbed oxygen like normal breathing.
Originally, he could only treat the water as a vacuum environment and could not absorb oxygen in the water like the Atlanteans. However, with the activation of the divine power in the trident, he suddenly had this ability.
If he expected correctly, the Atlanteans' ability to breathe underwater was originally transformed by the power of the trident.
This is Poseidon's blessing to the people of Atlantis.
Although Dane is not a descendant of Atlantis, he possesses the power of the Greek gods and even the thunder of Zeus, so he also received this blessing.
This thing, although it doesn't feel very useful, is still better than nothing.
Definitely, the ability he gained was not just underwater breathing.
At this moment, Dane was finally able to understand what Kaylason was saying.
"Damn it, what kind of human claw are you!"
Dane smiled and raised his trident.
"Kayla Sen, do you see this trident?"
The trident lit up with golden light, and the divine power inside radiated outward like ripples, instantly suppressing Kayla Sen's violent thoughts.
It lowered its head in huge amounts of fear.
"Your loyal servant Kayla Sen, here to obey the king's orders!".
