One month later.
It was a gloomy summer evening.
The huge sailing ship, carrying thousands of pilgrims, sailed on the rough sea.
Beyond the horizon, dark clouds are vaguely visible.
It foreshadows the coming of a storm.
The waves were higher than the other, hitting the sailboat hard.
The hull roared painfully and shook violently, threatening to capsize at any time.
Alan, wearing a cloak, walked quickly to the bow.
Pointing at the storm clouds in the distance, he calmly recited the spell.
"Súré!"
The surging magic power forcibly reversed the weather, like an invisible giant hand, pushing the storm clouds away.
A terrible storm just disappeared without a trace.
Alan looked at the sea which had returned to calm and smiled slightly.
The 5th-level spell “Control Wind Direction” is a little helper for sailors.
There were light footsteps behind me.
Accompanied by a fresh scent.
"Atreus, thank you for your hard work."
The Silver Dragon Lady Basilisa was dressed in a white robe and holding a porcelain bottle in her arms that was as white and delicate as her skin.
"Rum?"
Alan took the porcelain bottle, gulped it down, and smacked his lips in satisfaction.
“It’s hard to imagine being able to drink quality wine here.”
“Does it taste like your hometown?”
Basilisa asked with a smile.
Alan nodded and took another sip of his drink.
"Why don't I remember there was any wine in stock on board?"
"There wasn't any originally. I cast a spell on a bottle of sea water and turned the bitter salt water into sweet and delicious wine."
Basilisa raised her pretty face, revealing a hint of pride.
Liquid alchemy?
Alan laughed to himself.
He naturally reached out his hand and held her slender waist.
Basilisa's body trembled slightly, and she tried to break free from his arms.
"Don't leave in a hurry. Accompany me to watch the sunset sink into the horizon. This is a rare sight."
"Sorry, I'm used to watching the sunset over the sea alone!"
Ms. Silver Dragon twisted her flexible waist and slipped away from his arms with a red face.
He had just taken two steps when the deck beneath his feet suddenly shook violently.
Alan threw away the bottle and quickly stepped forward to support Basilisa.
"What's going on?!"
Basilisa’s face was solemn.
The sailors on the deck were also frightened and panicked by the increasingly strong shaking.
Alan quickly walked to the side of the ship and looked towards where the undercurrent was coming from.
A whirlpool suddenly appeared on the originally calm sea surface.
The vortex roared and swirled, rapidly expanding in all directions.
The sailboat was affected by the turbulence and spun into the depths of the vortex.
Basilisa followed.
He quickly made a casting gesture and used the 4th-level magic "Control Water Level" to calm the whirlpool on the sea.
The spell's effect is immediate.
The huge whirlpool gradually calmed down, and the sailboat gradually left the dangerous waters and returned to the correct route.
Just as Basilisa breathed a sigh of relief, something strange happened again on the sea.
In the center of the vortex, a thick tentacle covered with suction cups suddenly emerged, stretched out quickly and sucked the hull.
Immediately afterwards, one after another equally thick tentacles broke out of the water and joined the ranks of entangled sailboats.
Finally, the tentacles, the real body of a sea monster as majestic as a mountain, emerged from the sea.
Dark grey smooth skin, crackling and flowing with electric snakes!
The giant squid opened its eyes and stared coldly at the people on the deck, as if it was looking down at a group of ants.
"Kraken!!"
Basilisa couldn't help but scream, her face turned pale!
"Hey! Isn't this my old friend Kraken?"
Alan smiled.
Take off your coat, bare your upper body, spread your arms, and do a cool diving move...
Uh, I was interrupted.
Basilisa rushed over like crazy and hugged his waist tightly.
"Let me go! I want to go into the sea and kill that giant squid!"
"Idiot! Even if you are a golden titan, you can't defeat the powerful Kraken in the sea. Don't go and die!"
Basilisa looked anxious and refused to let go.
Alan had no choice but to tickle her underarms twice.
While she was ticklish and retracted her hand, I climbed over the railing and jumped into the sea.
"Atreus—you are a lunatic!!"
On the deck, Ms. Silver Dragon's angry shouts were heard.
Plop!!
The moment I fell into the water, a cool breeze hit me.
At the same time, Alan felt the throbbing from the depths of his soul.
This is the Titan ancestor spirit he merged with, and it is afraid.
When Atreus was a child, he was playing in the water with his brother and almost drowned in the sea.
From then on, I suffered a psychological trauma when exposed to deep water and never learned how to swim.
Of course, he can transform into a sea giant and gain the talent of diving.
However, this cannot dispel the fear of deep water in my heart.
On land, the Golden Titan can easily beat the Kraken.
However, in the sea, as Basilisa worried, the Titans might not be a match for the Kraken.
What's more, Atreus is a "landlubber" among the Titans and suffers from severe thalassophobia.
In real history, in order to protect Basilisa and the pilgrimage ship, Atreus went into the sea to challenge the Kraken.
After trying their best, they finally drove away the sea monster.
He was also seriously injured and poisoned.
If Basilisa had not jumped into the water to rescue him in time and used her magic to heal his wounds and detoxify him, he would have drowned in the sea.
Alan certainly would not repeat the mistakes of his ancestors.
He is an expert in dealing with sea monsters!
Alan treaded water skillfully with his feet, and his upper body floated out of the sea.
The lightning emblem on the palm of his right hand emits brilliant golden light.
Holding Thor's hammer in my hand, I suddenly felt at ease.
"Damn squid, die!"
With a roar, Allen threw the hammer with all his might.
Snap!
With a flash of lightning, the golden hammer flew a hundred meters away.
The Kraken was shot in the head on the spot!
The heavy Titan's hammer was deeply embedded in the squid's crown, and blood gushed out.
The Kraken howled in pain and spurted ink.
Alan was not afraid of the Level 7 Leviathan toxin contained in the ink, but the dark sea water obstructed his vision.
Alan subconsciously wanted to turn on the "fog vision" to see the position of the sea monster through the ink.
However……
I was depressed to find that I had lost this ability.
Misty vision comes from the bloodline of Sky Behemoth.
Allen's Golden Titan bloodline has not yet completely merged with the Sky Behemoth bloodline.
This means that the ability from the latter cannot be exerted.
Including foggy vision, roc shape, armor-piercing claws, and... the "regenerative" physique fused with the blood of the Behemoth!
Alan frowned.
The two top-level bloodlines cannot be fused, which is a bit troublesome!
Thunder suddenly sounded in the ink-polluted sea water.
A bolt of lightning twisted through the sea water and hit Alan.
Alan remained calm.
The Golden Titan's resistance to electric shock is enough to make it immune to the 6th ring "Chain Lightning".
The trouble is that his "Titan's Thunder" also finds it difficult to penetrate the Kraken's electrical resistance.
The shooting trajectory of "Chain Lightning" exposed the trace of Kraken.
Without hesitation, Allen activated the "Thunder Flash".
With a roar, the flesh and blood body turned into lightning and crashed straight into the huge squid that was as big as a mountain.
Bang!
The Kraken's body trembled, and he used the sea water to cushion and alleviate the impact brought by Alan.
He stretched out his tentacles and tightly wrapped around the golden titan who had thrown himself into his arms.
At the base of the ten tentacles is a black beak.
The Kraken opened its mouth and pecked hard at the prey in its arms.
clang!
The huge beak, like an anchor, hit the golden Titan's armor, pecking out a crack.
The Kraken shook its head like a giant woodpecker and pecked down again.
At the same time, Alan's left hand broke free from the tentacles, and with his five fingers together like a knife, he suddenly stabbed into the Kraken's open mouth.
puff!
The hand knife infused with "Steel Rift Rake" stabbed deep into the sea monster's mouth.
The bone spur on the palm softened its shape, like a poisonous snake, wriggling in the mouth of the sea monster.
It goes down the throat, into the internal organs, and sucks blood like crazy!
The Kraken was shocked and angry, and twisted its tentacles desperately, trying to strangle Alan to death.
However, she soon discovered that the flesh and blood of the golden Titan in her arms had turned into an extremely hard crystal.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't strangle it!
Three-phase phantom, crystal form!
At the same time, the bone spur that was deeply embedded in the sea monster's body also turned into a long, hard crystal thorn.
With a "puff" sound, it penetrated the body.
The Kraken finally realized that it had met its nemesis!
He simply retracted his tentacles, spurted out a stream of ink, and used the hydraulic force to force Alan away.
The Kraken took cover from the ink cloud and dived quickly.
"Giant squid, you can't escape!"
Alan sneered and raised his right hand, summoning the war hammer.
The war hammer embedded in the Kraken's head flew towards Allen's palm.
By the way, the Kraken that was between the war hammer and Allen was forcibly dragged back.
Alan raised the bloody warhammer, aimed at the sea monster's head and smashed it down hard!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After three consecutive hammer strikes, Kraken was killed on the spot!
Alan put away his war hammer and returned the same way.
When I swam to the side of the boat, I suddenly heard the sound of paddling.
Basilisa's urgent call could be heard faintly.
Alan wanted to respond that he was fine.
On second thought…
No, I better be busy!
Quickly change back into human form, close your eyes and pretend to be dead.
Basilisa transformed into a silver dragon and swam over quickly.
He picked up the "drowning" Allen, flapped his wings to break away from the sea, and landed on the deck.
She changed back to human form and pounced on him, detecting his breathing and listening to his heartbeat.
The heartbeat was normal, but the breathing was shallow and the eyes were closed.
It seems that he was choked by the sea water!
Basilisa tried various emergency measures but was unable to wake him up.
In desperation, I had to lean over and give him mouth-to-mouth artificial resuscitation.
This was exactly what Allen was expecting, so he hugged Basilisa and took the initiative.
When Basilisa was kissed by him, she immediately realized that she had been tricked.
Struggle immediately!
Even though she was a silver dragon, in the arms of the strong golden Titan, she was no different from a frail little girl.
Alan kissed her for five minutes before letting her go reluctantly.
"Atreus! You...you're a bastard !"
Ms. Silver Dragon's pretty face flushed red as she punched him like raindrops.
Alan lay on the deck without resisting.
It seems that he is lying down obediently to be beaten and accept the punishment, but he is actually enjoying a massage.
After this incident, Basilisa's attitude towards him changed subtly.
In the past, I only regarded Allen as my ex-boyfriend's younger brother and got along with him as an older sister.
Ever since he tricked me into kissing me, I felt embarrassed and angry, but also couldn't help but feel my heart beating fast.
In the first few days, Basilisa deliberately avoided Alan and seemed a little cold.
Alan is not a humble bootlicker like Atreus.
He didn't care about Ms. Silver Dragon's estrangement.
I ate and drank on the boat all day long, and when I had nothing to do, I would hold hands with the beautiful elf girls and talk about my ideals in life.
Basilisa had some complaints about his romantic behavior.
But I am embarrassed to criticize them in person, otherwise it would seem that I am jealous.
Although deep down in her heart , she was indeed a little sour.
After enduring for a while, she finally found an opportunity to explode.
The cause was two female priests of the Platinum Dragon God, both of whom were favorite students of Basilisa, a pair of twin elf girls.
Alan took turns dating the two sisters and everything was going well.
Just because of a moment of carelessness, he called the wrong name in bed, and the truth could not be hidden, exposing his ugly nature of playing two-timing!
After the truth was revealed, the two sisters did not unite to condemn Alan for being unfaithful, but instead blamed each other.
She wishfully believed that she was the only one Alan truly loved, and that it was all because her twin sister looked too much like her that Alan fell in love with her and made the mistake that all men would make.
The elf sisters are jealous of each other and confront each other openly and covertly.
When Basilisa learned about this farce, she was both angry and amused.
He called these two useless students over and gave them a severe scolding.
"We are both believers of the Dragon God, and we are twin sisters. Isn't it shameful for us to fight over a stinky man?!"
What made Basilisa even more angry was that the two sisters hated each other but did not realize that the culprit who alienated the sisters was the playboy they were infatuated with!
"If Atreus is the incarnation of the devil, or an angel sent by the Lord to test whether your faith is firm, unfortunately, both of you sisters failed the test!"
Basilisa's rebuke made the sisters feel deeply ashamed.
At least I confessed with tears in front of the teacher and never dared to be jealous again.
Afterwards, Basilisa still felt uneasy.
After some secret investigation, they were shocked to find that Alan had hooked up with many more girls on the pilgrimage ship than just these two.
Basilisa couldn't stand it anymore and finally took the initiative to find Allen.
Her face darkened, and she criticized him for being unfaithful, romantic and frivolous, and calling him the public enemy of women!
Alan spread his hands, looking innocent.
"Barcelona, ​​I heard that elves are a romantic race that advocates free love, so I want to experience for myself how romantic they are."
"I didn't force them, and I didn't promise to marry anyone but them. We are unmarried men and women, and we both want to be together. What's wrong with that?"
"What's more, we mainly discussed religion and philosophy during our date. I hope to gain enlightenment from them and gain a deeper understanding of the teachings of the Platinum Dragon God."
"Does the great Bahamut not allow his followers to preach during dates?"
Allen said this very skillfully.
Under the pretext of listening to the sermons of a female pastor, he actually hooked up with her for sex.
Afterwards, the other party felt that he was devoting himself to missionary work and gained both physical and spiritual satisfaction.
It wouldn't sound good if this matter got out.
On the contrary, it sounds like the Virgin Mary saving the world to say that the female pastor, in addition to having sex with him, also used her spare time to preach devoutly and influence the unruly soul of the playboy.
Basilisa was no naive person and could tell that he was quibbling.
But as Alan pointed out, the elves, a long-lived race that produces many handsome men and beautiful women, are not moral role models of being loyal in love.
Such romantic affairs are common in the emotional lives of elves.
Basilisa shouldn't be too harsh on Alan for being unfaithful.
What was even more unexpected to her was that Alan then took the initiative to discuss theological topics with her, and spoke very clearly.
It seems that his claim that while listening to the sermons of the elf sisters in bed, his body was corrupted while his soul was purified was not a lie!
This catered to her needs and made Sister Silver Dragon very happy.
Afterwards, I asked Alan in surprise why he suddenly became interested in these boring theological theories?
"Barcelona, ​​to be honest with you, I am interested in you and the cause you have devoted yourself to."
"I want to get closer to you and get to know you better, but unfortunately you hate me and don't give me a chance. You always avoid me coldly."
"I have no choice but to approach your students, hoping to learn more about you, the dragon god you worship, and your religious ideals from them."
"I admit that my motives were not pure, but as I got to know him better, I gradually began to identify with the Dragon God faith."
“It’s very painful for me.”
"You know, we, the Titans, belong to the ancestral camp and have always worshipped only the souls of our ancestors."
"I am afraid that I am sliding into the abyss of depravity, replacing my ancestors with the Platinum Dragon God as my idol."
"No! My dear Atreus!"
Basilisa's face flushed with excitement, and she rushed over and hugged him tightly.
"This is not degeneration, but the sublimation of the soul!!"
"My dear friend, you are on the right path, you just lack a guide!"
"The elf sisters tried to lead me, to guide me to follow them into the treasure house of thoughts..."
Alan shrugged and spread his hands, his face full of disappointment.
"But they can't satisfy me... I mean, their understanding of the Dragon God's faith is not thorough enough."
"Otherwise, how could you regard the deep spiritual communication between us as a superficial entanglement of lust and become jealous of each other?"
"Atreus! Those two sisters are still too young. For things like this... you should come to me!"
Basilisa's eyes were full of fanaticism.
"I will do my best to answer your questions during the rest of the voyage."
"Are you sure?" Alan frowned slightly. "I am a very stubborn person. I won't change my mind that easily."
"Even if you succeed, I will still kill you. After all, I have to complete the elders' instructions and give an explanation to the tribe members."
"What's the point of wasting the rest of your life preaching to a murderer who is destined to kill you?"
"No! It makes sense! It makes a lot of sense!"
Basilisa grabbed his hand, her eyes holy and fanatical.
"If I can convert you and make you our church member, I can entrust the pilgrimage ship to you with peace of mind even if I die!"
"Dear Atreus, I would give anything for this."
"At all costs?" Alan sneered, "If I ask you to preach to me on the bed like the elf sisters, are you willing to sacrifice your holy body?"
Basilisa was stunned for a moment, her face turning red and white.
In the end, I was moved by the noble spirit of dedication, gritted my teeth, and nodded heavily.
"If you really want it, I can give it to you!"
"I don't have many days left to live anyway, right?"
Alan stroked Basilissa's silky smooth skin and sighed softly.
Ms. Yinlong is so pious, just like a female Bodhisattva who is willing to donate her body to charity.
It would be very impolite if I didn't listen carefully.
…
Basilisa's one-on-one, hands-on teaching gave Allen a wonderful time worth remembering.
In a blink of an eye, another month passed and Beifeng Island appeared on the horizon.
Just as the pilgrims were rejoicing, a dark cloud floated in the southern sky.
The lookout on the ship looked through a telescope into the clouds and saw three tall silver-armored giants. He was so scared that he dropped the telescope and shouted:
"That's a Titan!"
"Three Silver Titans!"
Alan's cabin was filled with a beautiful fragrance.
Basilisa's cheeks were flushed, and she leaned against Alan's chest without any care.
Suddenly I heard a noise outside the window and opened my eyes in confusion.
"Honey, something seems to have happened outside..."
"It's none of your business. I'll go out and deal with it."
Alan stood up and dressed, taking the time to kiss her forehead.
"But I'm worried..."
Ms. Silver Dragon snuggled in his arms, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
"If I say it's okay, it's okay!" Allen kissed her cheek, "Go to sleep, you worked hard last night."
Basilisa's cheeks turned red and she obediently shrank back into the quilt.
Alan hurried to the deck, flew into the air, and restored the original appearance of the Golden Titan.
The three silver Titans flying in the wind opposite are the three elders of the Titan Royal Court and Atreus's tutors.
From childhood to adulthood, Atreus was taught by the three elders and obeyed their orders.
Seeing the elder's gloomy face, he couldn't help but feel scared.
At this moment, Alan's ancestral spirit was trembling.
The faces of the three elders opposite were so gloomy that they looked like they were about to freeze.
"Atreus! You disappoint us so much!"
One of the elders scolded him harshly:
"I asked you to capture the evil dragon Basilisa, but what have you been doing these days?"
"It would have been fine if you didn't carry out your mission seriously, but you even mingled with that evil silver dragon and acted as her thug. Have you forgotten how Atlas died—"
"shut up!"
Alan interrupted the elder sharply.
"Second Elder, you are too presumptuous!"
"What qualifications do you have to speak to the Golden Titan in this tone?"
"Atreus! You have changed and fallen!" The second elder was filled with sorrow. "It must be that sinister silver dragon that bewitched you, just like she used her crazy and vicious thoughts to poison your brother Atlas!"
"Don't mention Atlas in front of me, you are not worthy!"
Alan suddenly raised his right hand, and Thor's hammer whizzed out!
The second elder was filled with horror and hurriedly summoned the Titan's Hammer to block.
BANG!!
Gold and silver, two heavy hammers collided in the air, sparks flew.
The elder's rank is higher than Alan.
However, the Silver Titan is inherently suppressed by the Gold Titan.
What's more, he was caught off guard and had to passively block, which caused him to suffer a great loss.
puff!
The second elder vomited blood, staggered, and almost fell off the clouds.
The first elder and the third elder hurried forward to support him.
Alan raised his hand to recall the Golden Titan Hammer, glaring angrily:
"The Second Elder spoke rudely to me, which is an act of disobedience! First Elder, Third Elder, how do you think we should deal with him according to our ancestral teachings?"
The two elders looked at each other.
Considering the status of both parties, Allen has the right to lose his temper.
However, this is not in line with his past style!
In the elders' impression, Atreus is an introverted, weak and good boy.
Although he has a noble status and great power, he has never lost his temper in front of others.
Instead, he deliberately tries to please those who are lower in status than him, for fear that others will say that he is unworthy of his position.
There is nothing new under the sun.
If the master is cowardly and tolerant, the servants will surely become more and more demanding.
The three elders regarded themselves as Atreus' elders, and over time, they inevitably developed a mentality of slaves bullying their masters.
Now that he had discovered that this young golden titan had become unusually strong, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
"I tolerated your disrespect to me in the past, but you've gone too far!"
Alan said coldly.
"From today on, I don't want to endure this humiliation anymore. You'd better figure out your own identities and stop making me angry!"
The Great Elder took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress his displeasure.
"Your Highness Atreus, you certainly have the right to defend your dignity, but please allow me to remind you that rights and responsibilities are equal, and the promises you made should also be fulfilled."
"You promised us to capture the evil dragon Basilisa. It's been so long. Where is Basilisa?"
The third elder also came to help.
"Elder, please rest assured. I swear to the ancestors that I will do what I say!"
Alan looked solemn.
"The reason why I haven't taken action yet is that I want to find out why the followers of the Platinum Dragon God migrated to Beifeng Island in groups!"
"I haven't been slacking off these days. I went undercover next to Basilisa and found out a shocking secret!"
"This is related to the outcome of the battle between the ancestors and the gods, and it is related to the rise and fall and survival of our Titan family!"
"In order to find out this crucial information, I had to humble myself and pretend to be seduced by Basilisa's beauty, even at the cost of my own innocence..."
"The result was misunderstanding and slander by you, which really breaks my heart!" Alan was filled with grief and indignation.
