Chapter 31: Ancient Secrets of Atlanteans
The steps were long and unending with the abyss being littered with the light from pearls hung around.
They have been traveling for almost 30 minutes now, descending deeper underground. Zeras looked behind him, it was dark and looking into the distance was even more darker as he couldn't help but feel his heart rate slowly spiking but he kept quiet and just followed after the old man's figure.
Zeras's ears suddenly perked up, as he felt he could hear the sound of rushing water.
'Rushing water underground?"
They slowly came to the ending of the steps and right in front of him was a wall, which placed on it was a staff.
The Old Man slowly walked forward as he picked up the staff and slammed it on the wall twice at different points.
With a deep rumbling, the wall slowly opened up revealing extremely bright light that made Zeras squint his eyes a bit.
"We're here..." The old man said as he moved forward with the staff in hand. Visit for the best novel reading experience
Right in front of them was a wooden cannoe, tied beside the stump of a tree.
The area was an extremely large cave, which had huge statues extending deeper into the cave.
The ground contained no land but water making Zeras finally realiz why there was a canoe here in this place.
Wherever the man was taking him, it was definitely to the end of this water.
The old man walked forward as he untied the rope holding the boat while nudging Zeras forward as they both sat on the boat.
Zeras noticed the statues were in the form of Atlanteans who all had a trident in hand and covering their head was an element.
Their figure were muscular and huge, reaching up to the ceiling above.
Their backs were straight while they looked forward with a serious expression on their face. Zeras couldn't help but shudder in respect, just from their aura alone, this were true warriors.
"The ancient path to what..." Zeras asked confused.
"The ancient path to the Atlantean soldiers ground." The man said as he looked at the statues breathing out a sad sign.
"There was a war that happened in the past in Atlantis. A war that forever changed its essence.
It was a war with another powerful races who were known as Skulls." The man said as he look like he was looking at the past, as for how far, Zeras couldn't determine.
"The Skulls fought for something that belonged to us Atlanteans, they are a race with a deep hunger for powerful things. Therefore they had the largest collections of powerful artifacts.
And as for us Atlanteans, the most powerful thing we had was our Golden Trident. The Skulls wanted it.
But how could we give up the most precious artifacts passed on for more than a thousand generations.
We couldn't give it up, so we fought back. The results were disastrous."The old man said as he looked at the statues.
Realization dawned on Zeras as he finally knew who the statues represent. It must be the Atlantean soldiers of the past.
"Even though we Atlanteans won and we killed every single Skulls except one, the war was still disastrous, so much only three people survived among those who fought in the war.
It was King Atlas, ruler of Atlantis, possessor of the Golden Trident, His most trusted Advisory, and a young child.
That child is Sammodra Zean.
