“Young Master Watson, that is the location of the Sea God’s Trident. It is also the place where you will participate in the trial.”
Mike led Watson to a secret house in a small alley in the Crystal Palace. Following the house down was a small secret room. Half a day ago, the Crystal Palace had just been severely damaged, but nothing seemed to have happened here. The wall covered by magic was still smooth, and there was a sentry post every ten steps.
Half an hour after Watson and Antonio talked, Watson immediately went to the Ptolemy family a. He told them that he would participate in the trial, and the Ptolemy family sent the eldest Young Master, Mike, to bring him there.
Even though Mike knew that Watson was the one who replaced Casey, he was still polite toward him. After all, Watson was Antonio’s disciple, and his strength was not bad at all. He could not afford to offend him, so he did not mention that. After Watson replaced Casey, his brother had become trash in his father’s eyes. Watson had helped him, so he had a good impression of the young man.
“When Young Master Watson enters that place to train, guard it well to prevent anyone from disturbing him. Otherwise, if anything happens, I will teach you a lesson.”
“Yes, Young Master. We will guard that place well.”
The guards took a step forward nervously. Their bodies emitted a gold-tier aura as they straightened their backs.
Nodding in satisfaction, Mike led Watson to the front door of the basement and fiddled with the complicated lock on the door, “That is the most important place for our family. Just the entrance alone has nine layers of protection. It is magic that only enables those from our family’s blood to enter. I guarantee that no one will be able to access this place.”
“Is that so?”
While Mike was working on the sixth layer of the password, Watson pushed the door in front of him. His magic unlocked the subsequent layers of the password. “Isn’t it open?”
As Watson spoke, the door opened with a creak. Mike grumbled in his heart. The door was not as safe as his father had said. He would need to ask his father to strengthen the password again. He would make the nine-layered password into one with ninety-nine layers.
As the two entered, the scene in the secret chamber appeared in Watson’s eyes. There was a long staircase extending to the front of the secret chamber. There was an endless abyss under the stairs where a sky-blue trident floated in the air. The trident was wrapped in a golden dragon-shaped sculpture; it emitted a flickering light as if it was breathing.
As it breathed, the seawater below continued to rise and fall. It was poured into the black holes on the walls around the abyss in an orderly manner. The holes on the walls were densely packed and varied in size. At a rough glance, there were at least a million of them. Those holes were all the underground waterways of the floating city. The ends of all the waterways were connected to that place.
“Young Master Watson, aren’t you surprised that the operation of the floating city is all dependent on a platinum-tier item?
“That is inevitable. I felt the same when I first came here. A platinum-tier item can provide an endless supply of energy for an entire city. If there were more such items, it would not be impossible for the entire country to become omnipotent.”
Mike cast a burning gaze at the Sea God’s Trident, his face filled with pride.
The Ptolemy family had a platinum-tier item that could change the environment of the kingdom. What an honor it was!
“Young Master Mike is right. Platinum-tier items are indeed very powerful, especially that of Sea God’s Trident. It’s even stronger than an ordinary platinum-tier item.”
Watson nodded, and the specific information of the sea god’s Trident appeared in front of him.
[Platinum-tier item: Sea God Trident (imitation).]
[Effect: this item is an imitation of the real Sea God’s Trident. It only has part of the functions of the original trident.
Water Flow Creation (can create seawater out of thin air), Elemental Decomposition (can decompose the controlled seawater into minor water elements), Sea God’s Wrath (summons the projection of the sea god, causing platinum-tier large-scale damage), Tyrant’s Breath (sets up a thunderstorm vortex in the sky, making it impossible for birds to pass through).]
[Additional effect: Body Sensing (there is a connection between the fake sea god’s trident and the real one. The host will be alerted when the distance is close.]
‘This Sea God’s Trident is actually a replica, but it has powerful functions. It’s hard to imagine what the real one can do.’
Watson sighed in his heart. He heard Mike beside him say, “Young Master Watson, I’m going to take that Sea God’s Trident away next. I’ll have to trouble you to complete the trial on behalf of the Sea God’s Trident. During that period, I’ll stand guard at the side. If you have any questions, you can call me.”
“Okay.”
Then, Mike walked to the edge of the steps and chanted a spell over the abyss below. Soon, the trident was triggered by the sound of the spell. It shook and stopped the flow of water from the hole in all directions. It began to fly to the top of the abyss, where it fell into Mike’s hand.
The moment he held the trident, Mike could not suppress the excitement on his face. He was like an emperor, but he quickly suppressed that emotion and carefully inserted the trident into a protruding stone platform not far from the steps. At the same time, he made a polite gesture to Watson.
“Young Master Watson, please.”
Without hesitation, Watson jumped into the abyss.
As he floated in the abyss, he immediately felt countless requests coming from the caves in all directions. Some were requests from the city gates for him to open the gates and release the water. Some were requests for him to change the river course, and some were requests for fishermen to bathe at home. He hoped that he could provide warm bathwater.
Those requests were transformed into commands that instruments and magic could understand. They entered his mind, causing his brain to buzz.
“The Sea God’s Trident usually handles so many things without making any mistakes. Such computing power is truly terrifying. As expected of a platinum-tier item.”
Watson activated his magic according to the request in his mind. A huge water-elemental law domain spread out under his feet. At the same time, Watson used the ability to serve his words. The water elements in the air gathered spontaneously and condensed into nine thick water dragons that wrapped around his body. The water dragons’ bodies separated into thin streams of water and entered different caves on the walls.
Initially, he was not very familiar with the flow of water in the city. After all, the city was his body here, and the water flow was also his body. Some problems that he would not normally encounter when casting magic were also revealed at that moment.
In the bathroom of a fisherman’s house in the floating city, the fisherman’s wife was taking a shower in the bathroom when she suddenly screamed.
“What happened?”
The fisherman immediately rushed into the bathroom and saw a shocking scene. The water pipe in the bathroom seemed to come to life as it twisted randomly on the wall, and water was ten times larger than before gushed out of it. A few goldfish appeared along with the water flow, turning the bathroom into a pond.
In another place, a few children were sprinkling their feed on the fishes in a pond in a certain aristocrat’s manor. They laughed incessantly when the fishes fought for the food. Then, the water in the pond suddenly began to decline. Together with the fishes in the pond, they flowed toward the pipe and disappeared within a few seconds.
At the west gate of the floating city, the gate was slowly opening. The guard who opened the gate had just signaled for a merchant fleet to sail out. The water current pushed the ships that were supposed to leave the city quickly. However, they were pushed back by the current outside the gate, causing the vessels to crash into each other. The noblemen on the ships scolded their subordinates as their subordinates defended themselves.
Such a scene was not uncommon in a floating city at that moment. Watson was, after all, a human. It was difficult for him to process millions of different pieces of information simultaneously without making any mistakes.
“That Watson is a monster, right?”
Mike guarded the Sea God’s Trident and looked down along the stairs. He clicked his tongue discreetly when he saw the nine giant dragon-shaped water balls that surrounded Watson and the empty water currents that kept entering the surroundings.
Before he left, Daniel had explicitly told him that if Watson had any problems during the trial, he should immediately replace Watson with the Sea God’s Trident to maintain the city’s stability.
However, Watson had already started to supply energy to the city for a few minutes. There were no guards outside to report the problem. Obviously, what Watson had done was not too big of a problem. If he was not a monster, then what was that?
It was shocking enough to see Watson’s energy could support the entire city.
While Mike was lamenting, Watson closed his eyes to improve the energy supply to the city. “The energy contained in my body is enough to provide the functions of this city and even far more than that. However, I am unable to provide energy perfectly!”
In the past, when he made a move against the enemy, he always let his energy rush out in one direction. Even though it was powerful, it lacked change. However, at that moment, he had to split his energy into thousands of strands. Those thousands of strands of energy might have different directions, and after a certain transmission distance, some of the energy in different directions had to gather.
Such a complex change forced Watson to make use of all the knowledge in his mind. He had previously absorbed a large amount of knowledge from the cultivators in the underground maze. After he had fused that knowledge, he had transformed it into the Einherjar and several diamond-tier abilities. For example, the Invincible Fist. However, that did not mean that he had utterly digested the knowledge in the Einherjar’s body. Usually, he needed to think for a while before doing something.
However, at that moment, to support the entire city by himself, he had squeezed out every bit of knowledge in the Einherjar’s body and gradually fused it into his body. As he fused it with his ability to control the water flow, it significantly increased. The Einherjar’s body contained the experiences of millions of cultivators, and those experiences included all kinds of methods to purify energy.
All the helpful knowledge was fused into Watson’s system and turned into his own. As a large amount of information poured into his body, it was continuously fused and upgraded. At one point, the accumulated knowledge reached its peak, forcing him to open his eyes. He spat out a few words.
“Ten Thousand Clones!”
