Naylan fell to the ground holding the fish barrel in his arms and rolled several times. At the same time, Blaze and Guild Master Zero also arrived.

The two men hit each other and separated. Blaze was charred all over, and Guild Master Zero was not much better off, but the eyes of both of them were extremely bright, as if they were enjoying the fight.

However, the two did not continue, but looked at the center of the Ika Black Stone Tower at the same time.

That was the source of the blue light, a male figure.

It was undoubtedly a statue of a god. The muscles carved into it and the handsome face it outlined were not something that a mortal could possess.

And in the hand of this statue is the source of the dispute, a golden, extremely gorgeous trident.

【Trident/World Class】

It wasn't so much a weapon as a symbol, a three-pointed symbol extending from a long shaft.

Whoever obtains this trident will be the king of Atlantis and have the rights to all the oceans. At this moment, the most inaudible Naylan, who is holding the fish bucket, is closest to the trident, and the statue is almost behind him.

Even the light from the trident had already enveloped Neylan. Unbelievably, Neylan was the one closest to victory.

Blaze took a step forward, and Guild Master Zero immediately moved as well, blocking Blaze.

"I am also a person who fights for others occasionally and is full of dedication. You can't get past me while I'm here!" Guild Master Ling touched his nose and yelled at Nailan behind him.

"Naylan, pull out the trident!"

"You act like I'm a bad guy." Blaze grinned, raised his fist without showing any weakness, and roared with righteousness, "I won't let you get the trident!"

"You act like we're the bad guys!"

Guild Master Zero lowered his body, and [Tension] appeared.

This was both strange and exciting to him, and he had been looking forward to this feeling.

But he is always reckless when he only acts for himself, because he doesn't care, he only cares about pleasure and excitement. But if he has others, he will start to consider many, many things.

Carrying the heavy burden, he began to breathe heavily and sweat subconsciously, and that was called [tension].

Naylan did not pull out the trident immediately, but was waiting for something.

Guild Master Zero felt even more nervous because of this, but fortunately Blaze also seemed to have sensed something and stood up straight, looking around.

This could be a trap to lure him in, which he would certainly do anyway.

"Here it comes." Blaze's expression was solemn, as if he had sensed something.

"It's coming." Naylan took a deep breath, "Atlantis is going to rise."

An invisible wave spread out from the giant tower made of Ika black stones, circle after circle.

Then, as if in response, circles of waves appeared in the deep sea that was swallowed by darkness.

But unlike the invisible waves emitted by the Ica Black Stone Tower, the waves in the deep sea are caused by vibrations on the seabed.

Countless cracks swam along the rocks on the seabed, drawing an extremely huge pattern on the seabed, and then magma gushed out from the cracks.

The ship began to shake in the waves, and everyone could feel that some great changes were taking place under their feet in the ocean.

A dull sound accompanied the rising sea level. No one could understand what happened, or perhaps it was because what happened was very simple and too shocking to understand.

A continent is rising from the deepest part of the seabed, and the entire ocean looks like it is being lifted up.

The ocean gradually changed from rising to tilting towards the surroundings because the continent was approaching. Both ships and ocean overlords were forced to follow the tilting ocean away from the Ica Black Stone Tower.

Boom——

A dull crash sound came from the bottom of the Ica Black Stone Tower. At some point, the lost continent had approached the sea surface.

Blaze's expression darkened as he saw the scene that made him furious through the vision he shared with the snake.

Chapter 1560 The Man Who Untied the Fishing Net

Mermaids, or mermaids, are elves that live freely in the ocean, with beautiful singing voices and charming figures.

Their legends would survive even if the Age of the Gods fell, like something truly beautiful.

But no one has ever really seen a mermaid, only sirens appeared repeatedly, so at one point mermaids and sirens were mixed together and became a disaster at sea.

Only a few people still believe in the legend of mermaids, but as a fisherman, Naylan does not believe in the legend of mermaids. He just thinks that it is some kind of powerful existence that breaks the rules.

For example, there are only terrible half-human, half-fish creatures like the Siren in this world, but there is an extremely powerful existence that the Siren cannot hurt at all and can only be a beautiful mermaid in the hands of this existence.

Just like in the eyes of the general public, dragons are very dangerous, but there are powerful dragon riders who can communicate with dragons normally, so much so that romantic stories about dragons have spread.

Dragons will only be a romantic story if they are powerful enough to change the rule that dragons can easily destroy humans.

How irresponsible.

The story of the mermaid is the same, beautiful, but it is beautiful only to the powerful and superior beings.

Atlantis appeared. Although it had been submerged in the depths of the sea for countless years, its beauty and mystery had not diminished at all. The strange underwater natural scenery became its natural decoration, and all kinds of gems and sacred iron were everywhere like corals.

It is just as the legend says, a beautiful jewel box.

But the only thing missing is the mermaids. Where have those legendary beautiful fairies in the ocean gone? They have already appeared, but the creatures standing on the sea and in Atlantis cannot see them.

Blaze could see clearly through the eyes of the snake in the deep sea that the mermaids were at the bottom of Atlantis, and they were lifting Atlantis to make it float up.

That was definitely not a picture of unity among people [making their homes float up together], but a more direct, primitive and barbaric picture of slaves supporting the king's throne.

No wonder there are no traces of mermaids in this world, because they were all buried under Atlantis.

Blaze also saw the primitive cave dwellings at the bottom of Atlantis. Perhaps they were built after being pressed at the bottom of the deep sea for countless years, or perhaps the mermaids had lived at the bottom of Atlantis from the beginning.

What is even more difficult to understand is that even after being suppressed under Atlantis for countless years, there was not a trace of pain or relief on the mermaids' faces, only pure happiness.

It seems that being pressed at the bottom of the deep sea without seeing the sun is happiness, and now it is also happiness to lift Atlantis up.

He understood Cyrene's awkwardness when she mentioned mermaids. They were beautiful but incomplete, just decorations in the jewel box of Atlantis.

The mermaid isn’t even a decoration in a jewelry box;

Blaze raised his head suddenly and looked at the trident in the statue's hand. The mermaid had the ability to push Atlantis up, but she had to wait until the trident and the statue appeared.

Because this is one of the rules that will not change in the ocean world. Mermaids are slaves of the King of Atlantis, and only when the King of Atlantis appears are slaves allowed to appear.

"What do you plan to do after you become the king of Atlantis?" Blaze asked in a low voice.

Naylan did not answer directly, but simply turned his head and spoke.

"Mermaids were created by the King of Atlantis, born for the King of Atlantis, and feel happy and blessed because of the King of Atlantis. This is how mermaids exist, their civilization, and the meaning of their creation."

"[You] can't change the rules, and I will reach the top within the rules. This is extremely important."

Those were the words of a conspirator, like he came here just to become the king of Atlantis and have extremely loyal mermaid slaves to rule the ocean.

But Blaze calmed down instead.

Because this is really [meaningless]. This kind of boring thing without any twists and turns will not make someone like Guild Leader Zero fight with all his might.

And Naylan had said that he would understand, and that was no lie.

"I will change the rules, but not by brute force, nor by being above them. I will change the rules by being a tiny fish in the net and becoming the master of the net."

"If a fish becomes the owner of a fishing net, there is nothing to say even if the net is opened."

Twenty years ago, his soul sank to the depths of the sea and only his body was pulled ashore.

He should have become a zombie like countless other people who tried to change but failed, and then rot in some corner or in people's gossip.

But here he stood.

Was it because of the kindness and help of the mermaid named Abyssion? Yes, but no.

Was it to take revenge on the chaebols? His misfortunes were all his own choices, while the chaebols were the environment and the rules themselves, so it wasn't.

Twenty years is enough to turn ardent love into family affection, enough to turn surging hatred into a gentle stream, and enough to change hard obsession into its original shape.

Unfortunately, for an ordinary person like him, whether it is hatred or gratitude, in twenty years, it will be worn away by the trivialities of life and there will be only [regrets] left.

He wants to win.

Simple calculations, meticulous planning, and the right time, place, and people can increase the probability of victory, but it is only an infinite increase and does not guarantee victory.

So he developed a mental cleanliness obsession that was almost paranoid and superstitious, and it was also to ensure that the probability of winning was infinitely close to 100%.

People who break the rules cannot win within the rules. Just like the cycle of cause and effect, people who break the rules will one day encounter the same situation, so never break any rules.

People who have gained benefits from the rules and have a very high starting point cannot change the rules, because countless interest networks have become new fishing nets, entangled with each other and unable to move, so they must start from the bottom and bypass all the favors related to it.

He worked hard for 20 years to achieve a situation where there was no dispute, everything was fair and square, and even his enemies could not find any fault with him and thought he could win.

Only in this way, and only in this way, when he stands at the pinnacle of power recognized by the rules and says he wants to change the rules, will he be recognized by everyone, even God.

"I'll be the one to untangle the nets."

Chapter 1561: No Touching

Naylan declared, turning his back to the trident and the statue.

"I will hold the trident in my hand, become the king of Atlantis, untie the nets, and free all the mermen within."

“And liberate the rights of the ocean, making it a truly free place.”

dong dong——

The trident vibrated like a heartbeat as Naylan spoke, and huge columns of water rolled up from the ocean, rising towards the sky and surrounding the black stone tower of Ika.

There was a violent shaking from the Ika Stone Tower. The entire rising continent of Atlantis was shaking. The rising ocean once again wrapped around the continent and continued to flood towards the Ika Stone Tower in the middle.

It's the mermaids, their song makes the ocean rise and gather.

Are they here to celebrate the birth of the new king of Atlantis?

On the contrary, they still maintained their beautiful figures and their singing was extremely moving, but everyone could feel the strong hostility.

The mermaids did not come to celebrate the king's accession to the throne, but to maintain the order of the old king. From the moment they were born, they were designed to live happily in the fishing nets. When the nets were about to be untied, they would only feel fear and pain.

Being a slave is happiness, and being free and no longer supporting is suffering.

The trident radiates azure light, constantly calling out, and those who are called are not only mermaids, but also the overlords of the ocean and endless marine creatures.

The entire sea area, as well as the area beyond the sea level, was boiling. Even ordinary fish jumped out of the sea and approached. The entire ocean world turned into an enemy in Nailan's words.

It's just because we want to liberate mermaids and liberate the rights of the ocean.

"Is this the rule you want to challenge? It's not that easy to win."

Blaze turned around and rushed down the Ika Black Stone Tower, withdrawing from the fight for the trident.

"Naylan Abyssion! Become the king of Atlantis, become someone who is qualified to change the rules!"

"give it to you!"

Guild Master Zero yelled at Naylan and jumped onto the black ship. Lucy on the black ship was already prepared and sang the mermaid song as soon as she opened her mouth. The already dilapidated black ship raised its sails again and slid down the waterfall from the Ika Black Stone Tower.

In this way, there are only two lives in front of the trident.

No matter if it's Naylan, the inaudible human who wants to change the rules, or Abyssion, the slave merman, whoever touches the trident will completely change the rules.

"thank you all."

Naylan held the fish bucket and took a strong step towards the trident. The light of the trident expanded to its maximum in an instant, as if resisting Naylan's approach.

But there is no power in the light, that is the rule.

Collect the Ica Black Stones in the ocean to summon the trident. Any life that obtains the trident can become the king of Atlantis.

The rule is so simple. Only when [any life] can participate in the fight for the Trident can [all life] fight for the Trident. And the King of Atlantis born in this fight will never let go of the power in his hands.

So all the trident can do is to continuously emit light, so that all life will come to fight for it.

The entire third row of ocean worlds in World D, from the ocean overlords at LV399 to ordinary animals with no level, are all approaching to snatch the trident.

As if this was still not enough, the trident shone with an extremely dazzling light like a blue sun. Even the eyes of the creatures in the sky and on the earth were reflected with the light and approached the trident.

The sky was filled with winged creatures, and the creatures on earth plunged into the ocean like possessed.

That is the trident that any life can obtain.

At this moment, everyone in this world is an enemy.

"Hahaha - what a grand ceremony. Are you doing this just to prevent a human from getting you?" Naylan laughed while holding the fish barrel and walked towards the trident step by step.

"Don't you want me to have you? Trident!"
