Chapter 36 Showdown
In just a few months, it was a period of transformation for Yang Jian. Yang Jian believed that it would be fine to protect himself with his current strength, so some plans could be implemented, and some things could be held in a showdown with his son Arthur.
Time came Saturday in a blink of an eye. Yang Jian drove more than 100 kilometers to pick up his son as usual. Then Arthur continued to go to Vico for training. The next afternoon, Yang Jian usually sent his son to school, but this time unexpectedly stopped Arthur, who was planning to go to school.
"Arthur, there are some things we need to talk about, about your mother."
For some reason, at this moment, Arthur's own father felt an inexplicable pressure, as if standing in front of him was a high-ranking existence, emitting a certain majestic aura that made him unable to say anything to refuse.
In this way, Arthur followed Yang Jian honestly and went to the living room, feeling his father's scrutiny gaze. Arthur was under greater pressure and was almost unstable. Finally, he finally bit the bullet and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you? Tell me quickly!"
Yang Jian was silent for a while and finally said, "I know you have been receiving Vico's training..."
Arthur suddenly felt his head buzzing, and he didn't fall down. He didn't know how to explain to his father, nor how to explain to Vico.
Vico has always refused to let Arthur tell anyone about him, including Yang Jian. Arthur thought he had done a good job and was not discovered abnormally, but now his father said it directly. At this moment, he felt like he was being caught doing bad things. He was racking his brains to think about what reason to deal with his father? But Yang Jian's words later made Arthur stunned.
"...Vico will definitely tell you that as long as you can do it according to his requirements and complete his training, he will bring your mother to see you in the future, but what I want to tell you is that he is lying to you, and he will never be able to bring your mother to see you!"
"What!" Arthur screamed in surprise. Over the years, he had been training hard and constantly exploiting himself. He hoped to achieve Vico's goal as soon as possible. The only motivation to support him was his mother, hoping that his parents could be reunited, but now his father told himself that all this was a scam, which made Arthur difficult for him to accept.
"Your mother is the queen of Atlantis. She and Ovax had already had a engagement, but unexpectedly, something happened. It was the accident that made me meet your mother. Then we got to know each other and gave up the identity of Queen Atlantis, chose to be with me, and later we had you.
But there are some things that cannot be escaped. Your mother was discovered by the people of Atlantis. She chose to return to Atlantis and assume her own responsibilities. However, when she left, she promised me that she would come back only.
But what happened later was not within your mother's expectations. She returned to Atlantis, married King Ovax, and gave birth to an heir. She thought she could come back to reunite with us.
But King Ovax knew about your and my existence, and his jealousy made him lose his mind. He decided to take revenge and sacrifice your mother to the Trench tribe."
When Arthur heard this, he couldn't help it anymore and sat on the sofa, tears flowing out, "How is this possible? My mother died? It was because she gave birth to me? Vico has been lying to me!"
"Vico is indeed lying to you, but his purpose is for you, because he is your mother's confidant. In Atlantis, your mother's power is not weaker than King Ovax. If she chooses to resist, King Ovax may not be able to win and control Atlantis at the time.
But she knew that once she had a fight with King Ovax, it would inevitably lead to civil strife at Atlantis, and countless people would die. As the queen of Atlantis, she did not want to see her people bleed, so she chose to surrender and did not resist, allowing King Ovax to sacrifice her to the Trench tribe. Of course, she also put forward the conditions, that is, she could not hurt you. As your mother's confidant, Vico assumed the responsibility of supervising whether King Ovax had the promise, and was also under the order of your mother to teach you and give you the ability to protect yourself."
Arthur's tears flowed faster and faster. When Atlanta left, Arthur was still young, and his memory of his mother had faded. Sometimes Arthur also blamed his mother for why he didn't come to see him? Is he really so busy and has no time at all? He was still just concerned about being her Queen of Atlantis and forgot himself and his father. But at this moment, he deeply felt his mother's love for him. Before he died, the first thing he thought of was to protect himself.
It took a while for Arthur to wipe away his tears again. Vico's teaching over the years is in vain. Although he is still just a child, he is very precocious compared to ordinary children and has strengthened his heart.
"Dad, but how do you know all this?"
Arthur also realized at this time that his father's behavior was different from usual, as if he had become a different person. Not only did he know what Vic, but he also knew the secrets of Atlantis. This was not like something that ordinary people could do. The source of these news was definitely not Vico, otherwise Vico would not have given it specifically to hide it from his father.
"These things I investigated when I sneaked into Atlantis."
"Dad, you are not joking, Atlantis is under the sea of ten thousand meters, you are just an ordinary person, how can you..."
Before Arthur finished speaking, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. A ball of golden liquid appeared from Yang Jian's body, covering his whole body in a blink of an eye. After a squirming moment, it turned into a tight armor.
brush!
Arthur only felt a golden light flash in front of him, and then Arthur lost his father's trace. Then he felt that his shoulder was patted. Because he had been taught by Vico for many years, Arthur already had the instinct of a warrior, so he turned around and punched him.
Bang!
Arthur's fist was held by someone, and the other party did not move at all. Needless to say, it was Yang Jian who caught Arthur's punch. The golden armor was extremely dazzling. At this time, his face automatically separated, revealing Yang Jian's handsome face.
Arthur was so shocked at this time. He never knew that his father had such strong strength. His fast treatment made him unable to react to his strength, and his strength was several times better than him. I'm afraid that Vico would not be as strong as his father.
Although Arthur is still young, he still has some knowledge. Arthur himself is several times stronger than ordinary people. Although he is still young, after Vico's training, he is no less than those special forces soldiers who have been trained. However, facing his father, he was defeated before he could react. Vico definitely couldn't do this.
"Dad, how could you..."
"Why do I have such a powerful force, right?" Yang Jian sighed pretendingly before continuing: "This is because of your mother!"
"Dad, can you say that your strength was given by my mother?" I don't know if Arthur was so crazy that he actually said such words.
Yang Jian was almost angry and knocked Arthur's head hard, and said angrily: "How is this possible? If your mother has this ability, would she have to sacrifice herself to protect us? When your mother left, she said that she would definitely come back to find us, but a few years later, there was no news. I was very worried and wanted to find her, but there was not enough strength. This made me feel very incompetent. I was already desperate, but I didn't expect there would be a turning point again."
"What turn?" Arthur asked hurriedly, obviously very curious about how Yang Jian gained such powerful power.
"Once I was missing your mother. While I was wandering around the shore, I was accidentally perceived by a special existence. At that time, he proposed to make a deal with me, and as long as I agree, it would give me a strong power."
Arthur was not happy after hearing this, but was anxious. He jumped up from the sofa in an instant and grabbed Yang Jian's hand, "Dad, how can you do this? You never have a good end to a trader with the devil. Even if you get benefits now, they will take them back in the future and take away your soul."
"Stop and stop!" Yang Jian pressed Arthur and told him not to sway, "I am not doing anything to think about it. I am not doing a deal with the devil. The deal with me is an existence of a higher dimension, and the content of the transaction is not about the soul. He just wants to use my eyes to see the world and learn the knowledge of the world at the same time, and there will be no danger."
"Is that true?" Arthur still didn't believe that there would be such a cheap thing in the world, and felt that the other party might have a deeper conspiracy.
"Believe it or not, just don't worry about my business for now. Now we are talking about your mother."
"Mother? By the way, isn't mom really dead? No, I must check this matter clearly. I'll go find Vico now! If he really lied to me, then I'll..." Arthur gritted his teeth and was about to run out.
"Come back!" Yang Jian grabbed Arthur's arm and forced her to drag her back. "Vico has no malice. He is all for your own good. And the reason I told you so much this time is because I have discovered something recently. Your mother may still be alive."
"Mother is still alive!" Arthur almost jumped up. What happened today was full of twists and turns, making his mood fluctuate. If someone else listened, he would probably be scared of a heart attack.
"Yes, there is a high possibility that it's still alive."
"If she is still alive, why don't you come to us? Do you want us if you get it?"
"Maybe it's not that she doesn't want to come to us, but that she can't come because she's probably trapped."
"What's going on? Dad, can you tell me clearly and don't hide it."
Yang Jian organized the language a little and began to fool him, "I sneaked into Atlantis and learned that your mother was sacrificed to the Trench Clan, and I went to the Trench Clan to investigate.
At the beginning, I didn’t have much hope. I believe Vico also told you about the relevant information about the seven kingdoms under the sea. You should also know what kind of existence the Trench Clan is."
Arthur nodded. Although Vico spent most of his time teaching him fighting skills, he would also talk about things about the underwater kingdom during rest, including the seven kingdoms.
"Although the Trench Clan is nominally one of the seven kingdoms, they are more like a group of wild beasts that are irrational and only know how to kill. It is logical that their mother will die if she is sacrificed to the Trench Clan."
"Indeed, it is indeed the case under normal circumstances, but when I investigated Atlantis' information some time ago, I discovered something else, which gave me a glimmer of hope."
"What's the matter?" Arthur looked at Yang Jian with anticipation.
"At the beginning, the Atlantis people did not live in the sea. They lived on land. However, the King of Atlantis led an experiment at that time. The result was an accident. The powerful energy burst, causing Atlantis to sink into the sea. The King of Atlantis felt deeply guilty at that time, so he exiled himself. According to the information I found, the place where he exiled himself was probably a space in the sea where the Trench tribe was located.
Even if the King of Atlantis dies, no one can tolerate insults. The super sea monster Carlson has been guarding it, so the trench tribe should not be allowed to enter that space. If your mother happens to fall into that space, she may be able to survive. But if there is really sea monster Carlson there, your mother may not be able to escape, so I suspect that your mother may be trapped."
"Since that's the case, what are you waiting for? Let's set off immediately and go find your mother!" Arthur was so excited that he was about to jump up, and he wanted to see her mother now.
Yang Jian looked straight at Arthur with a plain face, and then said, "It's true that we have to go, but it's not us, but myself, you must stay."
Arthur almost ran away, "What?! Dad, why don't you take me there? I'm looking for my mother. Do you know how long I have been waiting to see my mother?"
"Of course I know, but you should also know how dangerous it is to go to the Trench Clan this time. Even if you go there, you can only hold back. I can't take care of you at that time. Staying here is the best help." Yang Jian's words were a bit cold, but this is also a fact.
"Don't underestimate me, I'm very strong, especially in the water. Even Vico said that I have a strong fighting talent."
"I believe in you. Your combat talent is indeed rare. However, a good talent only means that you are more likely to become a powerful warrior. It represents the future rather than the present. You need time to grow. As far as your current strength is concerned, you can't even deal with a trench clan, so stay at home honestly unless you can prove that you have the power to protect yourself."
Arthur thought for a moment and gritted his teeth and said, "Prove that I have the ability to protect myself, right? Well, I will prove it to you. Now I want to challenge you. If I win, you can't stop me anymore."
"Yes, but if you lose, you must be honest and obedient. Let's talk about how you want to compare?"
"We go to the water, no matter what method we use, as long as we hurt the other party, we will win."
"No problem. Just follow what you said."
