- Global Reincarnation: Only I Know the Plot
- GROIKTP Chapter 420
The only exit from the Hidden Sea.
Actually!
It was located right behind the throne of the first king of Atlantis.
In other words, without obtaining the golden trident, one would be trapped in the Hidden Sea forever!
After Chen Ye left the Hidden Sea with Atlanna, the massive sea monster, “Karathen,” followed closely behind.
“Why are you following me?” Chen Ye asked.
“Whimper…”
Karathen’s original mission was to guard the trident. Now that the trident had been claimed by Chen Ye, and Karathen had chosen to submit to him, it naturally followed its new master.
Chen Ye couldn’t understand Karathen’s sounds but could roughly guess its meaning, so he said:
“You don’t need to follow me right now. I have important matters to attend to. Go play in the ocean for now and await my call.”
Hearing Chen Ye’s command, Karathen let out a joyful roar.
It had been trapped in the Hidden Sea for far too long and was eager to explore the world once more…
After watching Chen Ye and Atlanna depart, the massive creature immediately swam off toward another part of the ocean.
…
An hour later.
Chen Ye and Atlanna arrived at Amnesty Bay.
Chen Ye wasn’t familiar with the place, but Atlanna remembered it clearly, even after twenty years, and had directed him here.
The reason they came to this place was simple—someone very important to Atlanna lived here.
Tom Curry!
The lighthouse keeper of Amnesty Bay.
He was also Atlanna’s husband and the father of Arthur, the future Aquaman.
Since Chen Ye planned to use Atlanna’s identity to secure control over Atlantis, he needed to keep his word and give her some happiness by reuniting her with her husband.
In the distance, the two could already see the lighthouse clearly.
Suddenly, Atlanna stopped, hesitating, her face showing uncertainty and worry.
“Why have you stopped?” Chen Ye asked.
Atlanna, anxious, replied, “It’s been twenty years. I don’t know if Tom has moved on and started a new family. If he has…”
Chen Ye understood her concern.
After all, twenty years is a long time, and not many people would wait faithfully for someone who had disappeared without a trace.
“Don’t worry! As far as I know, Tom never remarried. He raised Arthur on his own. Every morning, he goes to the pier and gazes out at the ocean, waiting for someone to return. He’s done this for twenty years, without fail… He’s never forgotten you.”
Hearing this, Atlanna couldn’t hold back her tears any longer, and they streamed down her face.
Chen Ye patted her on the shoulder. “Go ahead!”
Atlanna nodded, wiped her tears away, and walked toward the house at the base of the lighthouse.
When she reached the door, she took a deep breath and knocked.
*Knock! Knock! Knock!*
Soon, a voice came from inside—a middle-aged man.
“Who’s out there?”
Hearing the voice, Atlanna’s emotions surged, and she could barely contain her excitement.
In the next moment.
The door opened, and a middle-aged man appeared before Atlanna.
Twenty years had passed.
The man before her had aged significantly, and time had left many marks on his face.
But Atlanna still recognized him at a glance—this was the man she loved.
Looking at his weathered face, Atlanna smiled.
Tom Curry, staring at the woman standing at his door, was utterly shocked, his eyes wide with disbelief.
“Tom, it’s me. I’ve come back…” Atlanna said, unable to contain her emotions.
Tom Curry finally snapped out of his daze and immediately wrapped his arms around the woman in front of him.
They embraced for a long time before parting.
Still in disbelief, Tom asked, “Am I… am I dreaming?”
Atlanna, her heart aching, replied, “I’m sorry, Tom. I’ve made you wait so long…”
They embraced once more, sharing their feelings after so many years apart.
Half an hour later.
Tom finally understood everything. He realized that Atlanna hadn’t left by choice but had been trapped.
“Where’s the person who brought you back?” Tom asked.
“Over there…”
Atlanna turned to point but found that Chen Ye was no longer there. He had already left.
She had a feeling that she would meet the black-haired, black-eyed “Sea God” again.
…
“Tom, where’s Arthur?” Atlanna asked.
Tom glanced at the sky outside and said, “At this time, he’s probably on one of the islands, helping the locals… I’ll call him back.”
“Wait!” Atlanna said, worried. “It’s been twenty years. Arthur probably doesn’t even remember me.”
“Don’t worry. I’ve shown him your picture often!” Tom reassured her as he pulled out his phone with a smile. “Trust me, he’ll recognize you the moment he sees you.”
…
When Tom and Atlanna reunited, Chen Ye quietly left.
He knew that after being apart for so long, the couple would have a lot to talk about and other things to attend to…
So Chen Ye wasn’t about to hang around and play third wheel.
By now, Chen Ye had returned to the ocean.
Then.
He used his trident to summon the sea monster Karathen.
With the power of the trident, which could control all marine life, summoning Karathen was simple. He just had to send out energy through the trident.
No matter where Karathen was, it would receive the signal.
Moments later.
Energy waves rippled out from the trident, spreading throughout the ocean.
Chen Ye wasn’t sure where Karathen had gone, but he waited for an hour before he finally saw it swimming toward him from the distance.
“Whimper!”
Seeing Chen Ye, Karathen let out a submissive, almost apologetic cry.
The creature was intelligent and had sensed Chen Ye’s impatience. It knew that it had kept him waiting and tried to appease him with its behavior.
Chen Ye didn’t care to bicker with a sea monster and immediately climbed onto Karathen’s massive head.
“You know where Atlantis is, right? Take me there!”
As the companion of the first king of Atlantis, Karathen knew exactly where Atlantis was. Upon hearing Chen Ye’s command, it swiftly swam toward a specific deep-sea region, carrying Chen Ye along.
