Chapter 348: An Invitation From The Sea Tribe

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Outside the floating city.
A woman in a black robe stood at the entrance to the east of the floating city; she looked worried.
At that moment, she had already revealed her face. Her beautiful blue hair fluttered in the wind, and her hair that was wet from the seawater stuck to her face. Her jade-green eyes seemed to contain stars. A trident-shaped tattoo was engraved on her smooth forehead.
Her name was Poseidon, the sea tribe’s Empress.
All the other Sea Emperors had consistently been named Poseidon. Some said that it was a divine name bestowed by the sea god. No matter their previous name, they would need to change to that name to enjoy the sea god’s protection.
As one of the sea tribe’s three platinum-tier elites, she was not good at fighting, so she was responsible for guarding the entrance.
“Owen hasn’t come out after so long, and there seems to be a violent explosion in the floating city. Did something happen?”
The woman’s voice was a little hoarse, and she looked worried. At that moment, a thunder-like shout suddenly came from the floating city, causing her expression to change.
“Lord Poseidon, we’re out. Quickly, open the gate.”
The floating city had a barrier in the air. If one wanted to enter that place, the only way was to open the gate and pass through the underground waterways. That was the city’s protection measure, but it was not difficult for Poseidon.
“Great sea god, please grant me your supreme power. Let ignorant creatures witness the mighty power of the sea.”
As she chanted, the lake where the floating city was located began to churn. Huge waves hundreds of meters high suddenly surged from the lake. An even more majestic giant formed from the water elements was holding an ancient-looking trident in one hand in the waves. He swung it down at the gate of the floating city.
Boom!
With a loud sound, several cracks appeared on the huge stone gate that weighed dozens of tons. It shattered with a loud sound. Violent seawater surged out from the city and merged with the rolling water surface outside the city. Waterspouts that shot into the sky appeared one after another.
The ships outside the city were blown away. Even huge ships were blown dozens of meters into the air when the waterspouts rammed into them. They fell heavily into the water and shattered the hull. The crew members were thrown off the ships and fell into the water. They screamed and were dizzy from being washed away.
While Poseidon did that, several figures flew over from the city. The leader was Owen, and he held Alice in his arms. When he landed in front of Poseidon, Owen’s knees buckled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Owen, are you injured? Who injured you? Was there someone that strong in the city?”
Poseidon was a little puzzled.
“Lord Poseidon, let’s talk about it later. Let’s leave now.”
“Wait a moment.”
At that moment, Alice suddenly broke free from Owen’s embrace and landed on the surface of the sea. She pointed at the city and said, “Look.”
“Your Highness, now is not the time to look around.”
Owen smiled bitterly, but he could not help but turn his head. When he saw the scene behind him, even though he was a platinum-tier elite with an extraordinary mind, he was stunned.
The floating city behind him was filled with people rising into the sky. Most of those people were wearing chains and shackles. They were obviously slaves—there were tens of thousands of them. As they rose into the sky, the chains on their bodies broke. Soon, they were in the sky.
A translucent eggshell-shaped light barrier appeared in the sky. It emitted an intense light that prevented them from continuing to rise. At that moment, Watergate City’s barrier was activated.
However, those slaves did not stop rising in the face of the enormous barrier. Instead, they rose even faster. Just as they were about to collide with the barrier and break their heads, a person appeared below the barrier and punched the sky.
Crack!
The barrier shattered, and a huge fist appeared in the clouds.
“Despicable sea tribe! They caused chaos in the Crystal Palace, and then they took the opportunity to abduct all the slaves in the city! I will never agree to your actions.”
Watson was the one who shattered the barrier. He took a step forward and activated the teleportation spell. Tens of thousands of slaves followed him to Poseidon and the others.
“Kid, what are you talking about? It’s clearly you—”
Owen looked at the young man in front of him and spat out another mouthful of blood. However, at that time, he was angry.
Watson had taken advantage of the time they saved Alice to release those slaves, but he had blamed them instead. Was he really a good person? Why did he not feel like it?
“Despicable sea creatures, are you speechless in front of me? Then let me end your sins—Absolute Gravity.”
Watson stomped his feet, and the violent sea surface around him instantly calmed. A hundreds-of-meter- tall sea giant collapsed into a pool of calm water, and the huge water tornadoes that connected the sky and the earth had also disappeared. The residents who were about to be torn apart by the waterspout emerged from the surface of the water, one after another. They panted heavily and looked at Watson.
“The Ptolemy family’s second young master is fighting the sea folks?”
They could not believe their eyes. They rubbed their eyes as if they were dreaming. When did Casey become so strong that he could destroy hundreds of meters of huge waves with a single step?
Watson stretched his right hand toward Owen. “Sleep underwater forever—Invincible Punch.”
The surface of the lake exploded. Watson and a few members of the sea tribe had disappeared, leaving only the surface of the lake and a group of people who were still in shock.
Ten minutes later, at the entrance of Lake Priest, where the floating city was located, there was an endless sea in front of them. The land had disappeared.
Watson floated on the water and removed his disguise. The sea folks were in front of him while the tens of thousands of slaves were behind him. Everyone who saw his real face, except for Alice and the others who had already known about it, was shocked. Owen and Poseidon were surprised that a teenager had been the one to save them. The slaves were astonished that the person was not Casey.
“Friends from the sea tribe, this is the end. Miss Alice, I hope you won’t get captured again!”
Watson smiled at the sea folks. He turned his head to look at the slaves behind him. “You are free now. You can go wherever you want, as long as you are far away from the floating city. Of course, if any of you want to live with the sea tribe, you can stay here.”
The slaves calmed their shocked emotions and responded one after another.
“I am willing to stay with the sea folks. After all, my family was brutally murdered by the slave traders. Even if they let me leave, I have nowhere to go.”
“My hometown is in the Forest of Eternity. The slave traders abducted me. I want to go home. My family is still waiting for me.”
In the end, a small number of people had chosen to stay. Most of them decided to leave. For those who wanted to go, Watson cast the God’s Blessings to help them recover their strength and then a large-scale teleportation spell. He teleported them to a place far away from the floating city to ensure that they were not discovered. Then, he handed the thousands of people who chose to stay to Poseidon.
“Madam, I can see that you are one of the sea tribe’s leaders. I hope you can treat these people well. Don’t discriminate against them just because they used to be slaves.”
“Of course.”
Poseidon nodded blankly. She hesitated for a moment and said, “Are you sure you want to give those people to me for free and not ask for a reward?”
Her scalp was a little numb. There were many silver and gold-tier elites amongst the slaves. Furthermore, they were all gorgeous. Typically, those slaves would cost thousands of gold coins. She had planned to save only her daughter, Alice. Unexpectedly, she managed to save Alice and gained so many people. However, the other party did not ask for anything.
“What else would I want? Keep Alice by my side?”
“Kid, I’m warning you. Alice is the sea tribe’s princess. If you dare to disrespect her, I’ll—”
Halfway through his words, Owen spat out another mouthful of blood.
“I was just joking. You don’t have to be so agitated. ” Watson shrugged. He would not be staying in that city for long anyway. The less contact he had with others, the better.
Unexpectedly, after he spoke, Alice’s eyes lit up. She gently tugged at the corner of Poseidon’s clothes. “Mother, I want to stay with Brother Watson.”
“Alice, what are you saying?”
“I said I wanted to stay with Brother Watson. Mother, didn’t you teach me to repay another’s kindness? Even though I’m weak and can’t do anything, I can stay with Brother Watson and help him clean his room or cook. I can still do such things. If I really can’t, I can help him earn money. After all, my tears can turn into pearls.”
“Alice, you!”
Poseidon looked at Watson and then at Alice, whose eyes were fixed on Watson. Her expression became serious. When a sea tribe royal family member fell in love with someone, their tears would become pearls. Had she fallen in love with that young man?
“Yes, Lord Poseidon. Watson has helped us a lot along the way. Even if we don’t reward him, we should at least take him to our city and hold a banquet to reward him.”
“Elena, are you joking? In the hundreds of years that we have lived in Atlantis, not a single human has set foot in it. That is the rule. And you want him to enter our city? Do you know that it violates our ancestors’ laws?”
Owen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and reprimanded Elena, who was helping him. Elena pursed her lips and did not say a word.
“Young Master Watson, since my daughter and subordinates have said so, it seems that they have indeed received a lot of care from you. In addition, you have given us so many people. It would be inappropriate for me not to thank you. You may follow us to our kingdom, Atlantis.”
“Thank you for your kind intentions, Your Excellency. However, I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t be going with you.”
Initially, Watson had been preparing to attend the Ptolemy family’s trial that day. However, Casey had called him away. Since it was already noon, he should head to the Ptolemy Manor.
“Kid, Lord Poseidon has graciously invited you, yet you dared to refuse her? I’m warning you, don’t be so ungrateful—”
Owen spat out blood again as he spoke, while Watson revealed a helpless expression. What was going on with that platinum-tier elite in front of him? He had rejected Poseidon’s invitation, but Owen said he was ungrateful and did not conform to the rules. What exactly did he want him to do?
“Young Master Watson, it’s better for you to come with us. After all, those slaves are land dwellers. They might not be able to live in the sea! Although they wanted to stay, you should send them back ashore if they are not used to living with us. Don’t worry, it won’t take up too much of your time.”
Poseidon had a reasonable explanation. Watson thought for a moment and nodded. “Alright, then I’ll go with you.”
Watson trailed behind Poseidon. He saw Poseidon chant a few incantations, and the ocean in front of him immediately parted to form a downward passage. With thousands of slaves in tow, he walked into the divided sea.
Watson did not know that his actions had caused a massive uproar in the floating city.
