    Title: The Lost City in OceanLevel: Advanced (C1)#Story : Marine archaeologist Elara discovers tablets hinting at the fabled lost city of Aqualis, leading her to embark on an expedition funded by the enigmatic billionaire Adrian Frost. With a crew and cutting-edge technology, Elara and her team descend to the depths, where they uncover a vast underwater city with eerie murals and strange energy emanating from an obelisk in the city’s main square. As they venture closer, an ancient, monstrous creature appears, seemingly guarding the city’s secrets. Barely escaping, the team returns to the surface, but Adrian insists they revisit the site, driven by a desire for the city’s untold power.
