Chapter 102: Something Missing
🕑 Added 2025-03-12 10:03:15 +0000 UTCIn the video.
After briefly describing the glorious deeds of the Sea God, Bo Saixi looked up and said, “The weapon stuck upside down on this stage is the weapon that accompanied the Sea God throughout his life. It is also the place where part of the Sea God’s power is concentrated. Pulling it out is your only test. With its recognition, you have truly taken the key step to becoming the Sea God.”
Neptune raised his head and focused his eyes on the black long stick standing in the center of the Sea God Platform. No wonder it looked like a stick, it turned out to be the Sea God’s trident inserted upside down. This was the long handle of the trident.
With his eyes fixed on the Sea God’s Trident, Neptune walked towards the stage step by step without hesitation. The location of the trident was not only the center of the Sea God stage and the center of the Sea God Temple, but also the center of the entire Sea God Mountain. It seemed that the entire mountain existed for it.
After stepping onto the third floor, they finally came face to face with the weapon left by the sea god. The exposed long handle of the trident was about ten feet long, as thick as a child’s arm, and dark, with only a thin layer of lines vaguely visible on it.
Without hesitation, nine soul rings appeared around Neptune, and his spirit reached its peak at this moment. With a loud shout, he took a big step forward and came to the front of the Sea God Trident. He raised his hands and grasped the long handle of the Sea God Trident.
At the same time, the golden seal of the Sea God’s trident on his forehead lit up, and a concentrated ray of the Sea God’s light shone on the long handle of the trident in front of him.
Boom—
A faint golden color began to spread from where Neptune’s hands were holding. On the originally dark long handle, traces of golden lines began to spread along with the release of golden aura…
At this moment, the screen suddenly jumped.
I unexpectedly came to a place that looked like a warehouse, which housed many things that seemed very precious.
Everyone in the live broadcast room was confused and puzzled.
At this time, the picture gradually enlarged, and one of the boxes shook violently, and then the lid was popped open, and the things inside were revealed.
It was an extremely strange thing, the whole body was crystal clear blue, and it was in the shape of a three-dimensional triangle. The whole thing seemed to be carved from sapphire, and it was only the size of a palm. The crystal blue light was filled with precious light, and strange energy fluctuations continued to emanate from it.
On this blue triangle, there are rippling lines like water waves. These lines do not look like they are carved, but rather they are alive. Circles of blue light flicker, and the warehouse is filled with a faint precious light.
[Huh? What is this thing…]
[Isn’t this the most precious treasure of our Tiandou Empire, the Vast Sea Universe Cover? ]
[So this warehouse is the empire’s treasure house? ]
[The origin of this thing is mysterious. Now it seems that it is actually related to the Sea God Island? ]
[Wait! Could this thing be the Heart of the Sea God mentioned earlier? ]
[Not sure… but I think it’s pretty close, right?]
[…]
A series of barrages passed by.
In the video, the Vast Sea Universe Cover that activated spontaneously slowly floated up, and then turned into a golden light and flew upwards.
“Bang!”
The solid and heavy roof of the warehouse was completely unable to block the golden light and was easily penetrated.
After leaving the warehouse, this golden light shot up into the sky and flew towards the sea at an astonishing speed.
At this time, the video screen jumped again and returned to the Temple of the Sea God.
Neptune still maintained the posture of holding the long handle with both hands, his whole body shining with azure light, and the long handle was slowly rising due to his efforts.
Gradually, the people in the live broadcast room could see the connection between the long handle and the trident head. It was a circular connection, tightly buckled together, and the closer it was to the head, the thicker it became. As the connection rose from the ground, the edge of the trident head appeared in a triangular shape, with a crescent-shaped pattern on each side.
From this position, it can be seen that the halberd head is very large, and the further Neptune pulled it upwards, the heavier the long handle in his hand felt. In just such a short period of time, he actually began to feel weak.
Gritting his teeth, he exerted all his strength!
A harsh friction sound was heard, and the trident was gradually rising. From the edge of the triangle, a thick and angular trident head with a width of about three inches was extended to both sides, and the real trident head began to emerge.
The trident was naturally made up of three parts. The left and right sides were relatively thin, while the central part was exceptionally wide, and felt like a sword. There was a large diamond-shaped hole in the center of the wide halberd blade and the connection below, making the trident look like it was missing something.
When the people in the live broadcast room saw this scene, they all suddenly realized what was going on.
[I understand! The Vast Sea Universe Cover is probably the gem inlaid on the Sea God’s Trident.]
[This should be the so-called Heart of the Sea God, right? ]
[It’s just very strange. This thing should be the treasure of Sea God Island. How could it be lost and finally become the national treasure of Tiandou Empire? ]
[This seems to be something that will happen in the future. What do you think, if someone else brings the Vast Sea Universe Cover to the Sea God Island in advance, can they inherit the throne of the Sea God? ]
[You’re overthinking! Obviously, the Heart of the Sea God is only one of the conditions for inheriting the Sea God’s position. It’s not that you can become the Sea God’s successor just by having the Heart of the Sea God. The key is still the qualification issue, and whether the gods look down on you.]
[If anyone really takes this thing to the Sea God Island, the Heart of the Sea God will be taken back 100%. And if you look at the video, the Sea God can summon the Heart of the Sea God from the mainland thousands of miles away from the sea. It is conceivable that the real owner of this thing has always been the Sea God. It does not matter who holds it. ]
[As long as the Sea God wants, he can summon this thing back at any time. ]
[I see. If you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have realized it…]
The barrage area was full of discussions, with everyone expressing their own opinions. Since everyone was anonymous, many secrets that were not secrets were casually spoken out.
In the video.
With Neptune’s efforts, the head of the the Sea God's Trident had been pulled out by one third. The lines on the long handle had all been awakened, and although the light was not strong, the golden lines were much more gorgeous than the previous dark appearance.
But when I got here, I seemed to have encountered some difficulties, or was missing something crucial.
The Sea God's Trident could no longer be pulled out even a little bit.
Neptune remained in a stalemate with it.
[Why does it look like it can’t be pulled out? ]
[Is it because of the lack of the Heart of the Sea God? 】
[Without the Heart of the Sea God, it is impossible to pull out the Sea God Trident? 】
[No way, is this going to fail? ]
A series of barrages passed by.
Fortunately, after a stalemate in the video, the missing “thing” finally came.
A golden light flew from a distance.
As they got closer, the golden light dissipated and a blue triangle appeared, spinning around. It was the Vast Sea Universe Cover that flew out from the Tiandou Treasure House on its own.
A magical scene appeared. The Vast Sea Universe Cover flew to the position of the diamond-shaped hole in the Sea God’s Trident, and its shape changed. It turned into a dark blue diamond-shaped gem. Its size was exactly the same as the hole on the Sea God’s Trident, and it fell directly into the diamond-shaped hole where the trident was exposed on the ground.
Buzz——
The air seemed to freeze, and a circle of strong golden light instantly burst out from the head of the trident. At this moment, Neptune and the Sea God’s Trident seemed to be truly connected, and the same golden magic pattern as that on the trident suddenly burst out from his body!
