Noah was seated in the back of a large golden killer whale that serenely swam towards an extravagant castle that shone with lights in the distance.
The one that had been referred to as Ocean Master sat in front of him, surrounded by two Atlanteans letting out waves of power at the Mythical rank. This was the current ruler of Atlantis, an Atlantean one rank higher than the beings Noah had come across with before.
The Ocean Master in front of him let out a wide smile as comfortably sat and let out waves of power at the PHANTASMAL rank. This was the level of power that Noah set as a goal before he finished his journey in the Lost World. He still didn’t have even the slightest idea of just how hard it would be to achieve it though.
"You must have met the late King Neptune when you finished your procedure on the last floor, so I’m assuming you’ve heard the secrets that even many higher-ups in Atlantis aren’t yet aware of."
Noah nodded as he continued the conversation with King Zaonn. The King talked in a fairly light tone that reduced any tension in the sea and made everyone feel comfortable. The large whale they were on came to a stop close to the grandiose underwater castle as they got off and swam towards it. A tremendous amount of guards and advanced weaponry surrounded the luxurious castle on all sides.
"I know you must have your own goals and aspirations, and I just wanted to get to know you before understanding how you will move from now on."
King Zaonn kept a smile on his face the entire time as he pried more information. Noah thought for a bit before replying.
"I came across a group of Cultivators in the City of Aquicadis some time back who were prepared to murder everybody in sight with no remorse."
His body turned around from the castle they were going into as he looked at the many buildings of light below him before continuing.
"I want to make sure that groups like that do not stand a chance to bully us even more. I want to make sure they can never even come close to the Trident of the Sea."
His words were those of conviction as he finished and looked back at the Ocean Master that had shining light shooting out of his eyes.
"Haha good, good! Those elected as Seekers always make their way to the dangerous locations where King Neptune’s Trident might be hidden as soon as they undergo the infusion of the Golden Serum. Before you go, let me give you more information and things that would be of benefit to you, and ultimately to Atlantis if you are successful."
The Ocean Master was very laid back as he led Noah into a neat room inside the castle. The room had a bubble that blocked any water from going in surrounding it, the inside filled with doc.u.ments and what looked like blue screens as the King brought him in and closed the door behind them.
"Come, let enjoy ourselves first and get to know each other a little bit more. I’ll fill you in on the current state of affairs later, and the positions of the main enemies to look out for before you head out."
He clapped his hands twice as Atlanteans dressed in suits brought in a wide variety of food while he began debriefing Noah.
The forces of Demons had spread out wide, their legions concentrated in the danger zones around the sea as they searched for the Trident of the Sea. Squadrons would occasionally come across underwater cities and cause conflict, but unless both sides wanted to face heavy damages, they would not start an all-out battle.
When the ruler of demons, Baal, schemed to corner King Neptune with the aid of cultivators, they were all heavily injured and had to retreat to heal for years because of it. Now that they have returned, they only played the game of looking for the treasure as they spread their forces outwards from where the battle with King Neptune took place.
