Atlantis and Xebel are two of the relatively few Undersea kingdoms that still maintain a complete human form.
However, their respective characteristics are still quite distinct.
Atlantis's overall style feels closer to industrial technology; their creations all have a kind of industrial beauty common to humans.
Xebel's overall style is more retro; they like to hide their technology in what appear to be more primitive cold weapons.
For example, Atlantian Soldiers are all equipped with rifles, and their aiming and attack methods are similar to the Army of Surface civilization.
At first glance, you would almost think they were a futuristic tech unit, their power armor having a 'Star Wars' Stormtrooper feel.
However, the Xebel Kingdom Army adheres strictly to tradition; they still use long spears and round shields from the cold weapon era.
But the spear tip at the front of the long spear can fire golden plasma beams, and the round shield can activate a temporary protective force field.
Compared to Atlantian Soldiers who have to drop their rifles and draw knives to fight once an enemy gets close, their long spears are weapons for both close and long-range combat.
Of course, once a long spear is cut off, the Xebel Army's long-range combat capability is basically Wasted.
Moreover, it is difficult to replace the energy magazines of the long spear, and its firing efficiency is far inferior to the standard rifles of the Atlantian Army.
These differences lead the Xebel Kingdom Army, when choosing to attack, to try to quickly close in on the enemy for close-quarters melee combat within a short time.
But Arthur doesn't understand this!
He only knows that he must not be a coward in a fight, so after the war began, he led the charge, faster than all the vanguard troops under him!
And behind him, those vanguard assault teams used all their might to urge on the sea beasts they rode, but still couldn't catch up to Arthur.
So, from a God's perspective, Arthur almost single-handedly charged into the enemy camp and then began a one-man rampage!
The trident clearly activated the bloodline of the Old Gods, Poseidon, within him. In this vast ocean environment, he displayed speed and strength that were in no way inferior to Diana's.
Wherever the golden trident passed, the enemy's limbs were almost instantly disintegrated.
Under the influence of the battlefield, he immersed himself in the battle like a berserker. From a distance, Dane could vaguely see a hint of the Horse King in him.
And the assurance Dane gave him allowed him to kill without any qualms, without worrying about truly harming innocent people.
But Arthur,
Dane thought with a strange feeling, if you keep this up, you'll leave a deep psychological trauma on both friend and foe!
But this also showed something: without moral constraints, the efficiency of killing that superheroes can achieve is astonishing.
But Arthur was oblivious; he moved like an efficient killing machine, Penetration back and forth through Xebel's battle formation, with no enemy able to withstand a single blow.
Surrounding him was meaningless, because Arthur's speed was so fast that he gave them no chance to capture him.
Concentrated fire was also meaningless; Arthur's physical strength was now so great that even ion beams could not penetrate him, but the accompanying heat damage did cause him pain.
And whenever this happened, he would retaliate even harder, fiercely striking back at the Soldiers with his trident.
The Atlantian Army's morale was greatly boosted. Under Arthur's leadership, they fought like fearless warriors.
Even in close-quarters combat with the Xebel Kingdom Army, they were not at a disadvantage!
Vulko watched with surging emotions: "This is the King, a true King is rising!"
Nereus couldn't stand it anymore. Under Arthur's leadership, how could the Atlantian Army still resemble the peaceful Army of legend?
This was even more warlike than Xebel!
He quickly dove down on his giant seahorse, aiming his trident at Arthur and firing. Golden ion beams struck Arthur repeatedly, successfully catching his attention.
"Arthur! Come on! Let's have a King's battle!"
Arthur didn't say a word, directly moving with his trident, surging upwards.
Seeing him charge directly, Nereus showed no fear, guiding his seahorse downwards, using the seahorse's momentum to clash with Arthur.
During the descent, he also continuously fired golden ion beams, attempting to affect Arthur.
But Arthur's gaze was firm, his body as indestructible as a true man of steel.
He completely ignored the heat from the ion strikes on his body, and the water currents behind him seemed to push him upwards.
Finally, the two tridents clashed with a roar!
A huge wave of Water was scattered, severely injuring Nereus's seahorse, causing it to spew blood and be forced back by the wave.
Nereus felt a sharp pain in his chest. A mouthful of blood reached his throat but he held it back, swallowing it down again.
This force was even greater than before!
Nereus was somewhat stunned. He looked at Arthur opposite him, who seemed to have no ill effects whatsoever. Was that not his full strength just now?
Arthur pressed his advantage, his trident and he like one entity. Nereus's combat skills and experience were stronger than Arthur's, but unfortunately, his basic abilities simply could not contend with Arthur's.
He could hit Arthur countless times, but Arthur never cared.
However, if he took even one hit from Arthur's attack, he would often need a long time to recover.
Gradually, Nereus began to fall behind, but he still stubbornly refused to fall.
"Is this not enough?"
Arthur didn't understand. His trident and Nereus's weapon were locked in a stalemate, a tug-of-war.
Seizing this opportunity, Arthur wanted to persuade him to surrender.
"Give up, old man, do you think you haven't lost enough already?"
"Look at your subordinates, you are already at a disadvantage!"
Nereus subconsciously looked, and found that the Xebel Kingdom Army was retreating steadily. Continuing would only lead to defeat.
But he was unwilling!
Seeing that he was still stubborn, Arthur could only bring out the ultimate weapon.
He retracted his golden trident. Nereus was puzzled and waited cautiously.
Then he saw Arthur close his eyes, as if entering meditation.
This made Nereus a little restless, wanting to ambush Arthur.
And he did so the next second! The trident fired a golden light, hitting Arthur.
But Arthur, with his eyes closed, was pushed back several meters before suddenly opening his eyes.
In an instant, the Undersea ground collapsed, and a giant monster emerged from underground. It broke through the earth, and Undersea magma flowed over its body, unable to harm it in the slightest. It was Karasen.
Only half of its body was exposed, but the oppressive feeling brought by its immense size deeply shocked all the Soldiers present.
Even the Atlantian Army learned for the first time that their King could summon this giant beast.
The Xebel people all remembered the legend they had heard countless times in their childhood, the monster of the sea, the overlord whom even King Atlan had to respect.
"Karasen!!!"
Arthur looked seriously at Nereus: "Nereus, if you still insist on fighting, I will let Karasen attack. I will not let my people continue to sacrifice themselves in this war."
Nereus's beard and hair bristled with anger. He thought, if you hadn't come charging in so aggressively, why would he fight you for no reason!
But now, as the loser, anything he said was useless.
After a moment of internal struggle, Nereus still made his choice.
"I, Nereus, King of Xebel, choose to surrender."
His words were quickly converted into ultrasonic waves by the equipment inside his helmet and radiated across the battlefield. The ultrasonic waves he emitted were received by the Xebel Kingdom Army's helmets and converted into language.
This was a public channel, so both friend and foe could hear it. They simultaneously stopped their actions.
Arthur also put his trident behind his back and said to Nereus:
"Please believe me, Nereus, we Atlantians have never thought of enslaving anyone, nor do we intend to make you submit."
Nereus indicated that Arthur had won, and whatever he said didn't matter anymore.
There was no other way, Arthur could only call for Dane.
"Dane!"
His voice was so loud that the entire battlefield heard it.
Dane, who was watching the show from the rear of the battlefield, couldn't help but rub his forehead, feeling a bit embarrassed.
But he also knew what Arthur wanted to do. Since Nereus had already received his due lesson, the cleanup work had to be handed over to him.
So he said to Mera beside him: "You'll understand later, Arthur and I are not bloodthirsty people."
Mera still didn't understand his meaning, but Dane had already vanished.
When he reappeared, he was already beside Arthur.
He glared at Arthur with a somewhat displeased expression.
"Did you have to call me that way?"
Arthur just grinned foolishly without speaking, his face full of that 'bro, give him a big one' expression.
Dane felt he deserved a beating. Wasn't he having a great time killing just now?
But this was also the predetermined plan, so he didn't say anything more.
Nereus looked at this person who suddenly appeared, feeling a bit strange, but having just been defeated, he seemed unable to do anything but watch.
Then he saw the stranger open the ruby on his chest.
Dane activated the power of the dream stone, and everything in the dream was redefined and modified.
Everyone was shocked to find that those who had died suddenly came back to life, and even those who had been blown to pieces by naval cannons regenerated from the void.
Everything was like an absurd dream; the reversal of life and death was easily reproduced before their eyes.
Someone let go, their weapon sank, falling onto the Undersea.
Then more and more people put down their weapons. Those who should have died also stared foolishly at their hands, thinking they had only had a nightmare.
But when they opened their eyes, it was the familiar battlefield again.
"Gods above..."
Nereus also couldn't suppress the stormy waves in his heart. He clenched his fist tightly, feeling his body return to its peak state before the war began.
He finally confirmed it: this was a miracle!
