Chapter 60: Atlantis (5)
*Supes_POV*
"So you're telling me that the 7 treasures are hidden down there in the middle of nowhere?"
"According to historical records, Atlantis was in the North Atlantic ocean and some records even say that it was on the strait of Gibraltar, which connects the Atlantic ocean and Mediterranean sea. But I know that Atlantis was as big as current Australia so it could not be on the strait but most probably near it."
"Is this why you brought me to Portugal yesterday, as it's nearby?", Atlanna says with a pout.
Well, I had to end this World tour, or else the other girls would start getting angry with me not spending much time with them. "No baby, I just wanted to marry you quickly.", I say while giving her a kiss.
"Now Atlan or the Dead king as he is called, sunk the Atlantis and he went down with it. So all of his 7 treasures are buried with him in his tomb, which should be somewhere down here." I took her hand in mine and we both dove down straight inside the ocean.
As we reached the ocean bed we saw Architectural remains of all sorts, but I was not interested in this rubble so I took Atlanna with me further ahead, who was looking around fascinated, finding the old Atlantis ruins.
I stop at a point and hug Atlanna tightly and go straight down below, the ground with my telekinesis. We come across some sort of underground cave system underneath the ocean floor.
And inside this cavern is an ancient door that does seem to be a part of the Atlantean architecture, but the walls connected to the door looked oddly to be merged with the cave.
Atlanna is surprised to see this cavern under the ocean and she is shocked by seeing the door. She goes ahead and touches the stone surface, the carvings on the door looked ancient and I knew it was Atlantean from having come across some of those letters in the magic library.
"It's written that this is the door to the throne room and also the last defense of the Atlantis, once closed it can only be opened by royal blood.", Atlanna says translating the words for me.
I take out her trident from my storage and give it to her with a nod. She uses its sharp edge to cut across her palm and place it in the middle of the door. The door lights up with blue light and the stone door opens slowly.
I take her palm in my hand and apply healing arts, "You didn't need to make such a big cut, a drop of your royal blood would have sufficed." She just giggled at my care.
We go in and feel the whole environment change suddenly like we just crossed a boundary. Inside was a huge room, looking at its dome-shaped roof which was at least 6 floor high, I could see sunlight being emitted from it.
I knew this room and this scenery was made by some kind of powerful magic. That was one of the reasons I did not just smash the door with my nth metal mace as I was afraid the things inside would just vanish or worse be destroyed.
There were two huge statues that reached almost to the dome on both ends of the room. They were two men in Atlantean armor with a trident in their hand like they were guarding something.
In the middle was a large staircase that took you to the platform above.
"This place is beautiful Clark, look at the statues and the details around this place, there is even sunlight coming from the roof, and how big is this, weren't we under the ocean floor?"
"You haven't seen the best part yet.", I say pointing towards the front.
There was a huge statue which ended behind a huge throne on the stone platform at the end of the stairs. The statue was of four beautiful naked mermaids.
Every one of them was holding something in their hands which was shining golden in the sunlight. There was one on the right side of the throne, two on the left, and one in the center.
The right and left ones had their hands joined, in which they were holding something which was glittering golden.
The one in the center had her arms wide open and she had something in both of her hands as well as something glittering on her neck. This statue was huge too and looked delicately crafted, it also reached as high as the dome.
All the mermaid tails merged with the throne made of stone. But the most eye-catching of them all was the 5 pronged golden trident which was just sitting there shining beside the throne.
Originally Atlanna saved Thomas Curry, they both fell in love and she birthed him a son named Arthur who would go on to become Aquaman.
During his time as a superhero, Aquaman will come across a group of people who he would befriend and he would eventually find this place with them.
But Arthur will not take all of this Atlantean artifact which did belong to him technically, instead, he will distribute them among his six friends, Mera included.
That group will be called The Others who each wielded a treasure of the Dead king. But now as Atlanna is with me and Aquaman or the Others not in the picture, all these treasures will belong to me.
I go ahead and take the 5 pronged golden Trident in my hand.

Avi2112 Treasure hunt! ... maybe Supes should have brought Selina with him.
She would have just taken all the treasures for herself then and Atlanna would probably not agree to a threesome. lol!
