The Dark Keep defense line is an impenetrable moat, with huge black reefs straddling both sides of the sea, where the 1st and 2nd Legions, the most elite units of Atlantis, are stationed, and in addition to being fully staffed, they are also equipped with a powerful flywheel combat system.

Shen Rui frowned slightly, "With such a huge line of defense, do we have to fly over?" ”

The middle-aged fishman smiled: "You can't fly, the Atlantis Legion has a flywheel chariot, but we can dive underwater." ”

"Underwater?" Shen Rui said: "Xue'er and I don't have gills and can't breathe in the water, or we'll send you here." ”

The middle-aged fishman obviously didn't want Shen Rui and Xue'er to leave, and hurriedly said: "Both of them are my benefactors, since they have already come here, why don't you be embarrassed not to invite you to our fishman's territory as a guest, rest assured, I, Gibbs, guarantee the safety of the two with my life, and as for the submarine sneaking, it is also on me." ”

Shen Rui thought for a few minutes, as the old saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is his friend, although those villages along the coast of the Great West Continent are not bad to Shen Rui, but they obviously do not have the strong combat power of the fish-man clan, if they join forces with these fish-men, maybe they can really rescue Ye Wuxian and Lao Pan.

"Okay, then go and have a look at your territory."

Shen Rui deliberately glanced at Xue'er when she said this, Xue'er was not the same as those modern women on the ground, she already recognized herself as Shen Rui's person in her heart, and she would support Shen Rui unconditionally no matter what decision Shen Rui made.

Seeing that Shen Rui and Xue'er agreed, the fish-man Gibbs was overjoyed, and stopped at a long distance from the defense line of the Dark Castle, Gibbs put his head into the seawater, and sent out a high-frequency sound wave unique to the fish-man in his throat, calling for his partner.

After a while, several heads popped up in the sea, they were all fishmen, they were happy to see Gibbs back, but they were wary of Shen Rui.

Gibbs seemed to have a high status among the fishmen, and he whispered a few words in the ear of one of the fishmen, who were startled, looked at Shen Rui and Xue'er, and then turned back to the sea with his companions.

Soon, the fish people brought a semi-circular transparent tempered glass cover, and turned the glass cover upside down in the water, the inside could naturally be filled with air, although these gases were not much, but they were enough for Shen Rui and Xue'er to hold on to the water for more than ten minutes.

Although this diving method is primitive but very interesting, Hachi holds the glass cover with two arms, covering Shen Rui and Xue'er sitting on his head, and happily sets off to the bottom of the sea, as for Gibbs, he is a fish man who can breathe in the water, as long as Hachi catches him.

Swish~

Hachi's speed is extremely fast, and even those fish people who call the ocean their home can't catch up, which brings them a great shock.

A dark passage has been dug out by the fishmen under the surface of the sea defense line of the Dark Fortress, connecting both sides of the sea, and Shen Rui encountered the surprise attack of the fish-man troops in Atlantis, which is the reason.

The placement of two legions and 200,000 troops on the ocean stretching for two hundred nautical miles seems to be quite a lot, but in fact, this degree of defense is far from enough, Gibbs and his companions chose this weakly defended sea to pass through, without attracting the attention of the army, and soon passed through the defense line into the territory of the Fish-Man Clan.

There are more and more fishmen around, and they are passing news to each other, leading Shen Rui and them to their base, Fish-Man Island.

Fish-Man Island is a huge desert island, but only about half of the people actually live on the island, and many fish-people collect bamboo from the island and build tall bamboo huts in the reef shallow areas along the island's coast.

There is no doubt that Fish-Man Island is more primitive than the technologically advanced Atlantis and Atlantic City, and even inferior to the villages on the coast of the Great Western Continent.

The fishmen lived in the proposed bamboo huts, and the weapons they used were not high-tech fiber products, but their own metal was harvested and refined, and only a few elite fish-man warriors were able to obtain loot, wearing the same fiber cuirasses and spears as the Atlantean Poseidon warriors.

The arrival of outsiders such as Shen Rui and Xue'er aroused great interest in the fish-man clan, and many children in the clan leaned over curiously, they have delicate tail fins, and can make many unbelievable tricks in the water, even if the children are just born, they are already athlete-level swimmers.

In addition, Fish-Man Island is home to countless dolphins, these intelligent and beautiful creatures live with fish people, each family has its own dolphins, just like family members, fish people raise offspring, young fish people and baby dolphins play together, adult fish people and adult dolphins watch.

Shen Rui looked at the faces of these fish people carefully, and sure enough, there was nothing hideous, except for the mutation of the lower body, they couldn't see any difference from humans, the old people were kind and steady, and the young people were lively and noisy.

"You see, on Fish-Man Island, dolphins are our best friends, a family and a dolphin family have been paired and have lived together for generations." Gibbs explained.

At this time, a few small white dolphins came in the distance, they came to Gibbs's side, shouting excitedly, but after shouting for a long time, they didn't see their relatives appear, and their eyes became sad.

Gibbs picked up the youngest white dolphin and said with tears in his eyes: "The white dolphin who saved me before is their mother, named Meiya." ”

Shen Rui didn't say anything, just nodded.

On first impression, the Fish-People are clearly not as ferocious as the Atlantean murals, they are a loving bunch.

Gibbs's home is on Fish-Man Island, and the house is also made of bamboo, so there is nothing special about it, except that the dolphins owned by the family are white, which are obviously faster and stronger than those gray dolphins.

Gibbs had two brothers, each with a wife and children, plus the elder of the family, a typical large family, both living in adjoining bamboo houses.

Shen Rui, Xue'er and Xiaoba were received with excessive enthusiasm and were invited to the widest bamboo hut to deliver the most exquisite food to the fish.

The crowd outside is getting more and more gathered, and it seems that everyone on Fish-Man Island has come and is talking about something outside.

Even stranger is that they are in formation, with the fighters on one side, women and children and old people on the other.

Just when Shen Rui was puzzled, Gibbs and an old man walked into the room, and Gibbs introduced: "This is my father Bufenheim, the patriarch of the fish-man clan. ”

As soon as Shen Rui heard that it was the patriarch, he was polite to the old fishman, don't look at the tail fin on the lower half of the fishman's body, they can also walk on the shore very quickly, but the walking action is a little strange, like a person with his legs tied is jumping.

"We're all ready, please come with me." The fish-man patriarch Bufenheim bowed his head and said.

Shen Rui didn't know what the fishman was going to do, but out of respect, he and Xue'er followed Gibbs and his father out of the bamboo house.

Boom~

At this moment, all the fishmen were prostrate on the ground at the same time, even the Buffenheim patriarch was no exception, and bowed deeply to Shen Rui and Xue'er.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, please accept the most sincere respect from the Poseidon Guards Legion!" Bufenheim led the fishmen in a loud voice.

Princess!?

Shen Rui was stunned suddenly, looked back at the quiet and beautiful girl beside him, and opened his eyes wide.

Bufenheim waved his hand again to bring a large fiber box, put it in front of Shen Rui and Xue'er, and said in a deep voice: "This is the relic entrusted by Lord Poseidon to the Snow Princess, which not only contains the letter left by Lord Poseidon to the princess, but also Lord Poseidon's most precious armor and weapon, the angry sea and wild sand!" ”
