Nereus sighed. Why would he have wanted things to be this way?
If Atlantis truly possessed the same power it had in the past, enough to look down upon the Human Civilization and Sea Clan of this era, he too would have been as arrogant as Xuanjia.
But after coming ashore and encountering the Human Civilization of today, he understood that their current strength was nowhere near enough to openly contend with it.
Huaxia was known to possess no fewer than ten First Sequences, and most of them wielded weapons bestowed by deities. Their strength far surpassed that of ordinary First Sequences.
