"Access code correct, boundary unlocked, permission granted to access..."
A cold and solemn chanical voice emanated from the depths of the sea, and the nearby magic factors resonated wildly in response.
Buzzing sounds perated the air!
In an instant, columns of golden-blue light, adorned with star patterns, burst forth from below the sea surface, resembling spears of light, anchoring the entire Sea of Okeanos and the boundless starry sky.
The azure sea, once calm with gentle ripples and clean water, turned agitated and turbid; the frantically surging waters ford colossal whirlpools, and a majestic shadow, stretching for thousands of kiloters, rose rapidly to the surface.
Nearby living beings seed to sense so terrifying danger approaching; birds in flight scattered in panic, and the formations of swimming beast tides faltered.
With a splash,
a continent seemingly crafted from tal erged from the sea.
The main layout of the road ford concentric circles, separated from each other by buildings and tal gates, creating ten different functional zones.
Within the innermost ring lay the most important temples and reserved lands; modular city buildings radiated outward, their scattered arrangent showcasing an orderly and reginted beauty, with gilded dos whose harmony of sound stemd from varying winds and temperatures.
Even more incredible, suspended above the ring of buildings protected by the architecture, a towering peak hovered amidst misty clouds and dazzling starlight, with an elusive city atop; intricate corridors crisscrossed elegantly, exuding a tallic sheen.
"That is..."
dusa gazed from afar at the tal continent Poseidon had summoned from the deep sea, an inexplicable sense of familiarity stirring within her.
It was as if she had seen similar architectural styles and layouts sowhere before.
"The ten kingdoms of Atlantis?"
Athena, with a casual but dismissive shake of her head, pinpointed the origin of that so-called familiarity.
Although the style was similar, this was definitely not the true form of the lost Kingdom of Atlantis, nor a replica of it.
Judging by the traces, the once-great Atlantis was built in imitation of it!
"Interstellar City Mountain Range—Olympus..."
The Goddess of Wisdom, standing before the coastal wall, murmured to herself, then turned her gaze to the outer periter of the tal continent.
Ten distinct tal islands were arrayed in a circular formation, interconnected, forming a crown-like shape, guarding both the tal continent and the tallic mountain range within the stars.
Atop each island stood a bronze statue about a hundred ters tall, male and female figures each ard with various weapons, like giant bronze gods guarding the gateway to the tal continent behind them.
Athena swept her gaze across those familiar bronze statues—shapes, weapons, contours—reading aloud, with her keen vision, the nas engraved on the tal pedestals one by one.
"Queen of the Gods—Juno..."
"Sea King—Neptune..."
"Goddess of Wisdom—Minerva..."
"War God—Mars..."
"God of the Forge—Vulcan..."
"God of Light—Apollo..."
"Agriculture Goddess—Ceres..."
"Moon Goddess—Diana..."
"God of the Hearth—Vesta..."
"God of rchants and Travelers—rcury..."
Furthermore, in the similarly familiar tallic mountain range plaza stood an eleventh bronze statue.
Although the falling starlight and flickering thunderbolts initially prevented Athena from discerning the na of the god inscribed on the tal pedestal, the figure holding a lightning-shaped spear and a golden shield allowed the Goddess of Wisdom to recognize the identity of the statue at a glance.
—King of the Gods—Zeus!
According to Vulcan, the chanical God Aphrodite defector from Thessaly, should this figure not be nad "Jupiter"?
Representing the Twelve Olympians with twelve chanical Gods, representing Mount Olympus with the Interstellar City Mountain Range Olympus...
Poseidon had indeed not given up hope, still seeking to use the Bronze Clan's rebel gods to establish a new Great Temple on the ocean's foundation, mining the authority of the gods and the heavens, and pushing himself toward the ultimate throne.
If not for Typhon and his Demon Army soon sweeping across the Sea of Okeanos, devouring every living being in their path, this uncle of hers would probably have kept this trump card until the end, intending to vie for divine authority with War God Mountain and Mount Olympus.
She thought so beautifully; now let Typhon and his Demon Army test your ttle.
Athena scoffed coldly, watching to see how Poseidon would perform on the spot.
The Sea King, perhaps emboldened by the revealed trump card, imdiately waved his Trident and let out a high-pitched shout.
"Go forth, my iron wall! My sharp sword! Crush these beasts! Let them know who truly rules the Sea of Okeanos!"
At the sa ti, the ten tal islands thrumd and vibrated, and the sea water churned and boiled; black shadows, glittering with specks of light, rapidly grew and ascended.
Monts later, crisp splashing sounds rose, and a line of pitch-black battleships, composed entirely of tal with surfaces flashing with light patterns, surfaced one after the other, aligning in battle formation.
Port-side Essence Fluid Cannons on the ships autonomously absorbed magic factors from the air, and the turning cannons aid one by one at the Beast Tide swarming in the Stormy Sea.
"Wide-area search complete, multiple hostile life forms confird!"
"Aether Constriction, divine power loaded, imdiately execute the annihilation command!"
Alongside the cold and solemn chanical voice, thousands of broad beams like the scythes of the God of Death burst from the charged Essence Fluid Cannons, the sea water boiling violently in response, space twisting and shattering like broken glass.
