Chapter 353: Seven Warlords of the Sea - Thunder Dragon!
[Crackling sounds----]
A streak of blue Electric Flash shot from the Jungle in the center of Birka Island to the High Altitude, drawing a long line of light that attracted the hostile Gaze of many Residents in the Edge Urban Area.
But Enel at this moment didn't notice this, instead fully enjoying the joy of rapidly flying into the sky.
"I'm really flying!"
The sixteen-year-old boy, his whole body radiating Electric Flash, looked Excitedly at the Sun, which was clearly larger, coupled with the White Wings on his back, he was like a devout Angel.
But since he was an Angel, he naturally needed a God to serve.
Enel kept Scanning his surroundings, trying to find the God who guided him. Just then, a melodious bell sound came from a very far Distance.
As soon as this sound reached his ears, another bell sound immediately rang out.
"There!"
Enel listened carefully, and by the third sound, he had determined the direction of the sound source. Instantly, he transformed into surging Lightning and flew across the sky following the guidance of the bell sound.
Just as the bell rang for the tenth time, he finally saw a Screen Feed that would be etched in his memory forever.
A gigantic White Ship comparable to Birka Island, like a Deity's Palace from Legend, lay prostrate hundreds of meters in the High Altitude of the White Sea. The Hull's surface was lined with densely packed Gold Cannon Barrels.
The five-story Ship Tower, with each floor's Height reaching over ten meters, made one suspect that the Residents inside might not be Human, but Giants.
But none of this was as eye-catching as the Golden Belfry standing on the incredibly vast Deck.
A blue-scaled python, over thirty meters long with long white feathers on both sides, was seen striking the side of the Golden Bell with its snake tail.
[Duang——]
Immediately, just as Enel, who had Manifested as Lightning, landed on the Deck, the eleventh bell sound was heavily struck by it.
This sound was actually very loud; one could even faintly see rings of air ripples in the Air, yet there was no deafening discomfort. Instead, combined with the brilliant Gold light, it created a wonderfully sacred atmosphere.
"I am Stussy, Secretary-General to Lord Saint Nerona. By Order, I am to bring you to the Empty Hall to meet the Lord!"
Seeing the blonde Woman in a black dress turn and leave after Speaking, Enel quickly trotted after her. Immediately after, the Golden Bell behind them was struck for the twelfth time.
This made him subconsciously turn his head to look, and he saw the Giant Blue Snake retracting into the Attic below the Belfry.
"That is..."
"That is 'Lord of the Sky' Kukulkan. It's an Ancient Jaya Snake that has lived for over four hundred years. By the Lord's Order, it is responsible for guarding the Ark's Deck and striking the Golden Bell on time."
Stussy said indifferently without turning her head, while leading the way in her High Heels.
"Four hundred years..."
Enel secretly clicked his tongue. Looking at the Armored Riders in Column on both sides, he hesitantly asked, "Excuse me, who are you people? Or are you truly Deities?"
"We are members of the World Government, and here is Saint Nerona's Sky Palace, 'Noah's Ark'..."
Along the way, Enel learned many Matters from Stussy. The most important information, naturally, was about the World Government and the Celestial Dragons.
But the young boy still had doubts in his Heart.
It sounded like there were many Celestial Dragons, and the Saint Nerona he was about to meet wasn't even the highest Rank among the Celestial Dragons. Weren't there still the Five Elders above him?
This made him a bit unhappy.
If the God who had previously spoken to him from afar was truly this Saint Nerona, then Enel would have preferred that the other party was the only and most noble existence!
It must be said, the Deck of this Ark was truly large enough.
Stussy and Enel walked normally, taking a full ten minutes or more to step through the Gate on the first floor of the Ship Tower.
Despite this.
Stussy still had no intention of speeding up. In this Solemn Environment, the latter also didn't dare to carelessly use his Lightning Ability.
"Wow!!"
When Enel saw the space inside the Ship Tower, he felt as if the entire World had changed.
The Visual Impact of its unparalleled Height and luxury reaching the Limit of imagination made him unable to move his feet anymore. He foolishly scanned this Gold and magnificent World.
This place was simply countless times more shocking than any Jingu he had ever heard of.
"Let's go."
Stussy patiently waited for him for two minutes before Speaking to remind him. Enel suddenly woke up, his Heart surging, and walked on the incredibly soft Red Carpet.
But after a short while, he let out another exclamation.
Good heavens, what did he see?
Giant!
A Giant wearing Gold blood-patterned Armor, holding a Gold blood-patterned giant axe, with a Gold armored face mask, and a White Cloak fluttering behind him, estimated to be nearly twenty meters tall!
This Golden Giant was seen guarding the silver Stairs leading to the second floor, standing motionless like a statue, allowing Stussy, with a face full of shock, and Enel to pass by him.
"He..."
Just as Enel was wide-eyed and about to ask, upon reaching the second floor, he saw another Golden Giant. However, this one had his back to them, and the Weapon in his hands seemed to have become a large Gold axe held with both hands.
"Giant God..."
Enel softly read out the two large Chinese characters on the White Cloak.
"They are the Giant God Soldiers under Saint Nerona. They are mainly responsible for guarding these five floors of the Ship Tower," Stussy continued to introduce as she walked.
Next, they indeed saw three more Golden Giants with slightly larger Body Sizes, which made Enel's impression of that 'God' even deeper.
If the people of Birka Island knew about everything here, they would probably also consider it the descent of Deities, right?
Finally.
The two arrived at the fifth floor, continued through various Gardens, Lakes, Plazas, and Buildings, finally arriving before the Gate of a magnificent Palace located in the center.
"This is the Empty Hall. Next, you will go in by yourself."
"Remember, when you reach a Distance of about twenty meters from the Throne, kneel down. Do not have any disrespectful words or actions. Otherwise, even if you manage to walk out of there, I will be the first to kill you!"
Stussy's Attitude suddenly turned cold. She looked at Enel Expressionlessly, giving him a Warning, and then vanished from the spot with a whoosh.
Leaving Enel speechless, standing rooted to the spot.
A moment later, he pushed open the somewhat heavy Gate with force and walked in.
Immediately, he saw that there seemed to be only two people inside: a blonde strong man dressed in luxurious Gold clothing standing below the platform, and another white figure seated on the high and mighty Throne.
Enel walked over with a face full of Nervousness, then stopped at the Position about twenty meters away, according to Stussy's instructions.
He just didn't know what to say...
"Enel, there are three ultimate questions in life: Who am I, where do I come from, and where am I going? Previously, I told you the first question: you are my God's Envoy."
Im did not refer to himself as 'This Saint' at this Time, because 'Saint' could be used by all Celestial Dragons. Referring to himself as Saint Nerona was fine, but it was inappropriate for him to speak as Im now.
"Now I will tell you the remaining two questions."
"Where do you come from? This World was created by me a thousand years ago, so all life in this World, including you, originates from me and thus comes from me."
"Where are you going? You have already arrived at where you are going, which is here with me. Even if you die for me in the Future, your Soul will return to my side."
Enel listened with a blank Expression, while Tesoro next to him had a Composed Expression.
"When your Strength reaches the basic requirements for a God's Envoy, I will bestow upon you the Identity of a 'Seven Warlords of the Sea', serving as my representative in the world and the publisher of Divine Oracles, on the same level as the Five Elders, with no need to kneel before Celestial Dragons. Your Epithet will be 'Thunder Dragon'!"
"Uh, Lord Saint Nerona..."
Just as young Enel wanted to say something, a cold voice with no discernible emotion came down from above.
"As a Future God's Envoy, you need to engrave My True Name deep within your Soul."
"Im!"
