As for Talokan, Hao Shuai would have been lying if he said he wasn't disappointed after touring it.
He wasn't sure whether it was a matter of the visual style or the screenwriter.
The underwater kingdom in Hao Shuai's imagination should have been like Atlantis in the DC movie Aquaman: not only should the whole city have been colorful and brilliantly lit,
it should also have been packed with advanced technology, a perfect fusion of human ingenuity and natural beauty.
Instead, Talokan leaned toward a dark aesthetic, with seaweed and kelp covering its buildings. The whole place looked like it had been abandoned for centuries.
Still, Talokan wasn't without its merits.
When Namor led Hao Shuai to the city center, they came upon a palace. A tower stood in the middle of it, and atop the tower was a glowing orb.
"This is my palace. That's an artificial sun I made from vibranium. It brings sunlight to my people," Namor said proudly, pointing at the glowing orb.
"Oh, impressive," Hao Shuai said perfunctorily.
It was only an artificial sun, not some incredible piece of advanced technology. Hao Shuai had one himself.
At that moment, all his attention had been drawn to the palace.
Of course, it wasn't the palace's appearance that had caught his eye.
There was no way this shabby palace could compare to Hao Shuai's imperial palace.
What amazed him was that the damn thing had been built entirely out of vibranium.
How much vibranium must that have cost? What a damn waste—talk about extravagant!
How much vibranium had fallen into the ocean back then for Talokan to use it so freely?
At that moment, Hao Shuai had to admit he was a little jealous.
It wasn't that he couldn't build a vibranium palace. He just couldn't bear
