Vampire God in the Apocalypse

Chapter 166: 163. Atlantis: The chosen one

Collins looked at the statue of the man with a belt which had a lion symbol and the sword in his hands.

'For some reason... I feel like I've seen him before.' Collins couldn't help but think and then the people suddenly began to dance around the foundation statue and began to sing in a language which Collins couldn't understand.

"What's going on?" Collins asked as he was confused by the sudden actions displayed before him.

"It's our tradition. Everyday, after the sun goes down, we worship and pray to our God that one day, we shall be set free from the island." Zur said and then he clasped his hands and bowed down to say a prayer.

The amazon was a place where the amazonians stayed. The amazonians were trainers of magical beasts they tame magical beasts, fight with magical beasts,, and so on.

But when a green asteroid landed on their island, the creatures suddenly began to go berserk and then the creatures attacked the city. Only 50 of them were left now, surviving on little.

At least Collins now had a place to stay now without being afraid of getting eaten by monsters.

...

It has been five days since Jude was imprisoned in the strange prison and he has been struggling to survive since he needs blood in his system as a vampire.

Jude sat on the floor beside the bars in his cell as he conversed with the creature in the next cell next to his.

"Yes, King Huran only likes to settle any situation with brute strength. I don't even like him being the king, no one would even challenge his authority as he wields the Trident which controls the ss-sea." The creature said and then Jude sighed.

'So I'm in Atlantis, I thought it was just a myth.' Jude thought with a sigh.

Turns out that Atlantis is real. The species which live here are called Nagas and they have snake like features along with blue skin on their body.

The current king of Atlantis is a very brutal one. Due to the tiran impact, the entire ocean was affected and he has minimized going out to the ocean for the citizens.

Food has been hard to control and creatures of the sea has been going rogue for some time.

The new king does whatever he wants, a true menace to society. The only reason the people follow him is because he inherited the Trident of peosidon who is a god of the seas.

"I think you would make a better king, Kane." Jude said and a laughter came from the other side.

"Maybe." Kane said before keeping quiet and Jude shut his eyes to sleep for a while.

*Clank clank!*

Jude looked up to the bars to see two guards outside looking at him with their blueish reptilian eyes.

"Stand up, human. The king demands for you." The guards said.

Jude had a raised brow as the guard seemed scared for some reason.

They unlocked the cell and took Jude back to the large stadium which was now filled with the Nagas of Atlantis and everywhere went quiet the moment the human was brought in.

Jude saw the king in the middle of the floor announcing something and he listened in.

"And it is with honour, that we present to you, the chosen one!!" The king shouted and pointed at Jude and the crowd became happy all of a sudden.

'The hell is going on.' Jude thought and the the guards moved for him to walk towards the king. He swallowed as he walked towards the naga who was a little more than fifty centimetres taller than him.

"We hold a feast in his honour!!" The king shouted as he held Jude closely by the shoulder and he was still confused and behaved himself as he can be killed if anything wrong goes wrong.

The loud cheers from the crowd confused Jude and he was feeling nervous and cautious as of this moment and he looked around and found the guards with their tridents and he calmed himself down.

"Come with me." The king's deep voice reached his ears and he turned around to see that the king left his shoulder and was walking towards a particular direction that leads into a massive building.

He followed behind as he let out a deep breath and then he walked towards the king and followed him, leaving the large stadium.

...

Five minutes later, Jude was sitting with the king in a room and tea was in front of him. Hot and ready to be drank.

"Human, let me tell you a story." The king said and then removed the veil blocking his face and the crown on his head and then Jude was finally able to actually see that the crown is made of blue crystals which made it look astonishing.

The king had the same blue eyes but a colder gaze and he had bald head which made him seem like a professional wrestler.

"Our city, Atlantis was once on the surface of the waters. The humans wanted our precious denamite mineral for themselves and they wages war upon the atlantians."

"The god of the seas, who didn't like the way the humans were being just because of a mineral resources. He struck back with his trusted leviathan, the kraken."

"He sank Atlantis to the bottom of the sea for us to rebuild. He was a saviour, one that the people admire deadly." The king finally stopped saying and this time he sat up and looked at Jude.

"So now, the news is that, you're the one destined to be the next king and make Atlantis a better place." The king said and Jude was shocked.

"No, no, no. I just want to return to the surface." Jude mumbled with a bitter smile.

'Ah. Assuming I was able to evolve, I should have gotten a lot stronger. But 'fate' or whatever it was forbids it.' Jude thought with a bitter smile and he got up from the seat as the king stood up and then the king smiled at him.

"Welcome to Atlantis, chosen one."
