Deep in the Mediterranean Sea.
"Are you sure it's here?"
"The final guidance points to this location; it should be down there…"
A beautiful figure floated in the shallow water, Scarlet and sensuous hair falling over her shoulders. Blackened Mera seemed to be muttering to herself, answering her own question.
This area was in the deep sea beyond Italy, more than a thousand kilometers from where Atlantis was previously located.
Before this.
Vincent, controlling Mera's body, had already gone to the Sea of Sand, also known as the Sahara Desert, arriving at the lost ancient ruins hidden beneath the desert. From there, he obtained the first clue guiding him to the Trident Artifact.
Afterward.
Blackened Mera traveled to Sicily, Italy, and on top of a Greek ruin, she obtained the final guidance to the Artifact.
Although they had almost traversed half of the Earth and were constantly pursued by Atlantean soldiers, only six hours had passed since Vincent and Mera became symbiotic.
Fusion and symbiosis were still ongoing.
Vincent and Mera, now one in symbiosis, finally reached the location of the final guidance!
Next, they only needed to find the Death resting place of the former Emperor of Atlantis and obtain the Trident Artifact that disappeared with him… Blackened Mera's body swiftly sank into the sea, barely causing a ripple or splash.
She descended towards the seabed below, the Water flowing smoothly over her graceful body.
"Vincent, I know your true purpose!"
Mera suddenly snorted in her mind: "You're thinking of making me the Empress who rules all of the Underwater World, and that way, having the Empress as your exclusive possession would feel more fulfilling, right?"
"Uh, Woman, you're thinking too much…"
Vincent was speechless for a moment.
He genuinely hadn't had that thought initially.
However, now that Mera mentioned it, it actually sounded pretty good?
Vincent's mind stirred slightly.
He imagined Mera ascending the Empress's throne during the day, her fiery red hair elegantly styled with a crown, clad in majestic and domineering royal golden armor, holding the Trident Artifact to command the seven kingdoms, making the entire Underwater World submit beneath her throne.
At night, she would return to her grand and serene palace, lying on the regal and soft imperial bed, removing her golden armor and other items, arranging her moist, snow-White body into the shape of a seashell, allowing him, this human male… Well, as a hot-blooded youth, Vincent was merely fantasizing.
Who hasn't had urges and fantasies about mermaids, cat-girls, and the like?
But the problem was, at this moment, Vincent and Mera shared the same thoughts… Mera understood all the scenes Vincent was fantasizing about.
Mera's mind paused slightly, and she involuntarily continued Vincent's thoughts, unconsciously refining some details.
For example, the bed should be a pink-purple coral crystal bed, and her hair, when styled, was elegant and graceful, but when unbound and spread out, it should be even more beautiful half-covering her smooth, slender back… In about half a second.
Vincent and Mera's thoughts intertwined, jointly completing an extremely indecent dramatic scene.
"Vincent, stop it! Don't think any further!" Mera's mental voice suddenly shrieked.
"This isn't my fault; you led the conversation this way."
Vincent also found it hard to bear.
Because both sides kept adding to the continuation and details, the imagined scenes and plot became too real, making him almost believe he had actually done such things.
"Quickly, think of something else!"
Mera cried out in alarm.
If they continued to fantasize, they would even have children!
Vincent: "We already have them. By the way, you wanted two, didn't you?"
It proved that.
The more you force yourself not to think about something, the more you will think about it.
Fortunately, their thoughts were timely diverted by another matter.
Hiss!!
A terrifying Shadow, two meters tall, shot up from the seabed, lunging with bared fangs and claws at Blackened Mera as she descended!
Blackened Mera reacted with extreme speed, extending her right hand. Several dark tentacles immediately emerged from her armored arm, tightly coiling and binding the tall, ferocious Shadow!
"Gah gah gah!!!"
The Shadow struggled, its limbs entangled by the tentacles. What entered Blackened Mera's eyes was a two-meter-tall strange monster.
Its face was incredibly ugly and deformed, its entire body rough and hard, blackish-brown. Its limbs and back had red fins like a fish, and its eyes, as if devoid of intelligence, were filled with cold, fierce light!
"This is a sea monster that devolved from the residents of the Trench Kingdom. It instinctively hunts all marine life it sees. Its strength and speed are not something ordinary soldiers can handle. It's a predatory sea monster born for slaughter in the great sea."
"Most importantly, they are gregarious!"
As Mera's thoughts echoed.
In the deeper sea below.
Thousands of sea monsters swarmed towards Blackened Mera, one after another, as dense as a school of fish, forming a dark, cloud-like army on the seabed, wreaking havoc everywhere!
The scale of the formation was immense, like a roaring giant tsunami, making the sea within a ten-kilometer radius unable to remain calm!
"Come!"
Blackened Mera threw the sea monster entangled by the dark tentacles downwards. With the five fingers of each hand, she grabbed the Water on both sides, instantly controlling the sea Water within a hundred-meter radius around her body!
A deep blue light flickered faintly in her beautiful eyes. Blackened Mera violently swung her hands, as if directly grabbing and pulling the surrounding sea Water!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!
The sea Water within the hundred-meter area rapidly accelerated and spun, sucking in the approaching sea monsters, as if throwing them into a giant washing machine!
"Go!"
Blackened Mera pushed her hands upwards. The violently swirling sea Water, like a tornado, carrying dense sea monsters, was sent towards the sea surface above her head!
The sea Water continued to carry the sea monsters upwards, spinning and throwing them, until they burst out of the sea surface and scattered with a roar at a height of twenty to thirty meters!
"What is that?"
At this moment, Arthur stood on the coast of Sicily, gazing at the fleeting anomaly in the distant sea.
On the other side.
Namo, tracking the positioning device on Mera, arrived in a closer sea area. He emerged halfway from the sea surface, looking at the sea monsters constantly falling from the sky.
"Is it just ahead?" Namo murmured to himself… Having dealt with the group of sea monsters blocking their way.
Blackened Mera continued to descend beneath the seabed, quickly reaching a swirling seabed where undercurrents surged and crackling electric lights flashed!
Yes.
The vortex was like a thundercloud in the sky, constantly emitting terrifying flashes of lightning!
Blackened Mera did not hesitate; instead, she accelerated and plunged headfirst into the center of the seabed vortex!
Passing through the murky giant vortex, the dark, abyssal seabed gradually revealed a glimmer of light, like the Sun's light on a normal day!
The World seemed to have turned upside down.
Boom!!
Water splashed everywhere.
Vincent, controlling Mera's body, burst out of the sea surface. The view before them suddenly opened up, with mountains rising from the sky, waterfalls reflecting rainbows cascading downwards, and golden sunlight fully bathing her dark body.
"The legend is actually true. This is the Inner Earth Sea, an ocean located within the Earth's core!"
Mera's thoughts exclaimed in wonder.
