Chapter 278 King’s Duel!
Atlantis.
Ring of Fire Duel Arena.
In the center is a stone platform, and around the stone platform, within a radius of a hundred meters, is the magma of the submarine volcano.
Outside the encirclement is a safe area, a series of neat steps.
On the steps stood a large number of Atlantean people.
Today, there is a fight for the throne of Atlantis.
The person who challenges the current King Orvak is Atlanna, who is named the Princess of Atlantis.
A large number of people began to cheer and discuss.
"Wow!!!"
"Duel! Duel!"
"Who will be the final winner?"
"I think it's King Orwak. He has been the king for a long time and is very powerful."
"That's not necessarily true. Atlanna has found the lost golden trident. She is the final winner."
"It doesn't make much sense to say so much, just read on."
Many people in Atlantis are discussing the duel between the two.
Today's duel, strictly speaking, was a bit hasty and unusual.
Many people already know about Atlanna's escape from Atlantis.
But none of them expected that Atlanna would return with the legendary golden trident, the king.
As soon as he returned, he announced his challenge to the current king.
The duel began the next day.
The people of Atlantis, who learned the news, came to the duel field before the duel began.
This is one of the ancient buildings in Atlantis. It has been transformed and preserved accordingly, and has become a traditional place in Atlantis.
According to the traditional rules of Atlantis, those who are qualified to compete for the throne will have a final duel in the Ring of Fire duel arena, and the winner will be the King of Atlantis.
The seven major powers will recognize the winner.
The original Atlanna had considerable prestige in Atlantis, but she was still far from becoming the king.
Until she returns with the golden trident, her prestige is completely enough.
He is also qualified enough to challenge Ovac.
That's why the people of Atlantis in the duel field had such heated discussions.
The current supporters are roughly divided into two sides, and the others are just watching the fun.
Above the stone platform, Atlanna was fully armed and holding a golden trident, staring coldly at the opposite side.
Opposite him, Ovac was also fully armed, but his expression was not very good.
After being imprisoned for a day and then forced into a duel for the throne, it was strange that his face looked good.
Atlanna was the first to speak, but she spoke to the people around her.
"Everyone in Atlantis, listen up."
"Today, I will challenge Ovac, using the oldest method."
"The one who wins will be the new king!"
As she spoke, she raised the golden trident in her hand!
Suddenly, golden light surged and spread out in all directions.
Everyone felt her powerful aura and were impressed by it.
"Atlanna! Atlanna!"
However, there were also many people who cursed him.
"Traitor, Atlanna is a traitor!"
"How dare you challenge the king directly? What a treason!"
There is no doubt that these people are supporters of Ovac.
Compared to Atlanna, who made bold statements, Ovac was silent.
In fact, he also wanted to shout loudly and build up his momentum.
However, after glancing at Luo Ming, who was on the royal family's special observation deck, he swallowed those words.
Lomin and Atlanna return to Atlantis, apparently to become the new kings of Atlantis.
But you can't kill him directly and inherit it, because that is irregular and will be criticized by the people of Atlantis in the future.
Therefore, the ancient duel ceremony was chosen to decide the king again.
And this is also his last chance.
If he defeated Atlanna here, he would still be the king.
And relying on the power brought by this victory, he can order the army to expel Atlanna and Luo Ming.
After withdrawing his thoughts, Ovac looked at Atlanna coldly.
"Don't think that because you have the golden trident, you are my opponent."
"You will fail today, but I will still be the king."
In this regard, Atlanna had no expression on her face.
"If these are your last words, then let's get started."
"Bang!"
According to the procedure, after the ceremony, Atlanna mobilized the magic power in her body to increase her momentum.
Ovac followed closely behind.
He also mobilized his own magic power.
"drink!"
With a loud shout, Orvak launched the attack first.
He jumped up high, raised his trident and struck it down at Atlanna.
Atlanna moved her body to avoid the powerful and heavy halberd, then waved the trident in her hand and attacked Orvak's vitals.
Ovac responded calmly.
“Bang bang bang bang bang bang!!!”
Soon, the two were fighting fiercely.
The audience immediately cheered for this wonderful battle.
…………
On the viewing platform.
There was a big crowd.
The leader was none other than Luo Ming.
On his left were Wilko and other Atlantis ministers.
On the right are the kings of the Kingdom of Zebel, the kings of the Fisherman Kingdom, and the people of their countries.
They are all watching the battle.
Luo Ming watched Atlanna's battle with a normal expression.
It is not easy to become the king of a country.
Just like human countries, the birth of a king goes through complex political struggles.
Atlantis is no exception.
Of course, because of the extraordinary power, it seems simpler.
So, after subduing Ovac, he led Wilco to launch a coup, and promoted the duel for the throne overnight.
As long as Atlanna wins this battle, both qualifications and prestige will be enough to become the king of Atlantis.
The trivial matters after that can be dealt with slowly.
Atlanna herself is not weak, and with the blessing of the Golden Trident, her strength has surpassed that of Orvak.
Moreover, to avoid any eventuality, he also left a backup plan on Atlanna.
Next to him, Wilko watched the duel with a little nervousness. He was from Luo Ming's side, so he naturally hoped that Atlanna would win.
The other Atlanna ministers had different expressions.
Some of them support Atlanna, some are neutral, and some of them support Ovac.
Among them, the number of people who supported Owak was originally the largest.
However, after Atlanna brought back the Golden Trident, many people immediately changed their minds and believed that Atlanna should be the real king.
Those who supported Ovac were immediately angry, but unfortunately there was nothing they could do.
Who made Ovac fall into the hands of Luo Ming and others before, so they had to agree to perform a duel to fight for the throne again.
On the other side, King Zebel, while watching the duel, was also secretly sizing up Luo Ming.
The Kingdom of Xebel is the only nation among the Seven Kingdoms, other than the Kingdom of Atlantis, that still retains an approximately human appearance.
The hair of the Zebel royal family is red, and the appearance of the Zebel people is basically the same as that of the Atlanteans.
Before the entire Atlantis civilization sank to the bottom of the sea, the Kingdom of Zebel and Atlantis often competed with each other. It can be said that the relationship has always been lukewarm in history.
But in recent decades, relations between Zebel and the Kingdom of Atlantis have gradually warmed.
The reason is that Atlanna is close to the Kingdom of Zebel.
She has a good relationship with Nereus, the current king of Zebel.
Nereus even plans to let his soon-to-be-born daughter Mera recognize Atlanna as a teacher.
Nereus also knew about Atlanna, but he couldn't do much to help.
Otherwise, once he intervenes, it will be a diplomatic incident between the two countries.
Now that Atlanna has the opportunity to become the new king, he supports it.
At the same time, he could also see that the person who brought such a big change was Luo Ming.
He had a vague guess about the relationship between Luo Ming and Atlanna.
Next to Nereus is the king of the Fisherman Kingdom, a mermaid who looks more like a fish.
After the people of the Fisherman Kingdom sank to the bottom of the sea, in order to better adapt to the living environment on the bottom of the sea, they evolved more thoroughly than the Kingdom of Atlantis and Zebel.
Their legs have completely degenerated and turned into fish tails.
Scales have also evolved on the body, and the facial features have become very close to those of fish, and they no longer look like humans.
The kings of the Zebel Kingdom and the Fisherman Kingdom were suddenly invited here to witness the duel of the King of Atlantis.
It happened suddenly, and they all came in a hurry.
As kings of two countries, they knew that this was a competition for the throne.
At present, they can only come to witness.
As for annexing Atlantis, becoming the most powerful country in Atlantis civilization, or unifying Atlantis, they are not qualified yet.
Moreover, the appearance of the Golden Trident made them feel that they might be unified by Atlanna.
The golden trident has more or less dominance over the fish-men of the Atlantis civilization and the underwater creatures.
…………
This side of the Ring of Fire Duel Arena.
Atlanna and Ovac are still fighting.
“Bang bang bang bang bang!!!”
The physical combat mixed with magic power caused quite a stir.
Many stones in the battlefield were shattered by the aftermath of the two men.
The water on the battlefield started to riot.
Both of them live under the sea, and fighting in the water will not affect their combat effectiveness.
Instead, fighting on land will be affected.
At the beginning of the battle, the two were still fighting back and forth.
Sometimes they fight while standing on a stone platform, and sometimes they swim and fight in mid-air.
Over time, Atlanna became stronger and stronger, supported by the power of the Golden Trident.
Ovac quickly fell into disadvantage.
Ovac's eyes were bloodshot as he struggled to resist Atlanna.
After being detained for a night, he was not in the best condition.
Of course, it was impossible for him to fight in Luo Ming's hands and still want to duel at his peak.
Fighting is never fair.
The fierce battle gradually came to an end.
With the blessing of the trident, Atlanna delivered the final blow.
After dodging Orvak's attack, she somersaulted in the water and came above Orvak.
He swung the trident in his hand and struck it in the middle of Ovac's silver trident.
"Bang!"
The silver trident was shattered into fragments very quickly.
The powerful force knocked Owak away.
After flying upside down for a distance, he fell onto the stone platform.
When Orvak had just gotten up, Atlanna had already pointed the tip of the trident at Orvak's neck.
Then, she said expressionlessly:
"you lose!"
As soon as these words came out, Ovac suddenly felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his face was filled with death.
"I lost"
His weapon was shattered by Atlanna, and he had no strength to fight anymore.
Therefore, he failed.
Although Ovac didn't want to admit it, the facts were already before him.
In the duel for the throne, he lost to Atlanna.
Atlanna will be the new king, and he will be the loser.
Ovac was extremely unwilling and found it difficult to accept his failure.
But Atlanna doesn't care about this.
After she was sure she had won, her stern face immediately relaxed and she smiled.
She turned around, faced the people of Atlantis, spread her hands, and silently declared her victory.
The crowd watching the battle suddenly cheered fiercely!
"Atlanna! Atlanna!"
The atmosphere at the scene reached its climax.
While Atlanna was enjoying the cheers of victory, she looked at where Luo Ming was.
Expressions of pride, pride, gratitude and expectation all appeared in her eyes, and in the end, they all turned into strong love.
Looking at Atlanna's eyes, Luo Ming responded with a smile.
At this moment, Luo Ming suddenly frowned.
I saw Ovac behind Atlanna, with a fierce look on his face!
Looking at Atlanna with her back turned to him, he squeezed out the last magic power in his body, condensed a strong stream of water, and hit Atlanna in the back.
"go to hell!"
"The position of king is mine!!"
At this time, Ovac's face was full of crazy expressions!
Today's various experiences made him unable to accept the gap.
So he chose to launch an unethical sneak attack when Atlanna's back was turned to him.
He has already thought that as long as he kills Atlanna, he will still be the king of Atlantis.
At that time, he had enough time and strength to settle his affairs.
But after Atlanna became the king, he would spend the rest of his life squatting in a prison until he died.
So, he chose the last resort.
Ovac's sudden sneak attack immediately made the people around him scream in surprise.
"Ahhhh!!!"
"Queen Atlanna, be careful!"
"Despicable Ovac, stop it!"
The spectators around were all shocked. They didn't expect Ovac to be so shameless and even attack secretly after losing.
And he was still going to kill people.
On the viewing platform, Wilco and others' expressions also changed drastically.
They wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
Luo Ming, on the other hand, looked as usual, even with a hint of ridicule.
"It's just a fight between trapped beasts."
He was not too surprised by Ovac's behavior.
It is not surprising for a person in a high position like him to do some crazy things after losing.
And he had already left a backup plan on Atlanna.
I thought I wouldn't need it anymore, but now it's just right.
In full view of everyone, a golden shield instantly appeared to protect Atlanna.
"Bang!"
Ovac's water magic hit the shield and not only collapsed, but was also ejected into the surrounding magma by its counterattack.
"ah!"
A shrill scream sounded!
