Chapter 772: The Trench Clan applies to join the chat group
Atlantis!
The most powerful of the five great powers of the seas, there is no one.
Compared to the other kingdoms, Atlantis not only inherited the royal lineage of the empire, but also inherited most of the technological crystallization, the former made it expected to reunite the empire, and the latter made it the strongest maritime power after the split.
Because of the advanced civilization and the power of technology, the Atlanteans have an innate sense of superiority, and everyone is a younger brother.
This is true for several other kingdoms, let alone for human beings, which are really all kinds of disgust, barbarism, violence, madness, lack of etiquette, open defecation and other derogatory terms, all of which are the evaluation of human beings by the Atlanteans.
There's nothing wrong with having this kind of thought, after all, the other races of human Huo Huo haven't been around for a day or two, and they've been obsessed with cultivating mushrooms recently, planning to kill themselves by themselves.
Human beings want to kill themselves, and the Atlanteans don't care about it, and they can't control it, but the global village is so big, and they are afraid that while humans will destroy themselves, they will also be implicated.
To this end, King Orm graciously invited Nereus, the king of Zebel, and Riku, the king of the Fish-Man Kingdom, to the palace to discuss the formation of an alliance.
Two of the Seven Kingdoms have lost contact, the Trench Clan has become a sea monster after being uneducated, and the Saltwater Country has always done its own thing, and there are only these two kings that Orm can invite.
Atlantis today is bustling with activity, with the gathering of the three kings in an unprecedented spectacle that has attracted the attention of almost the entire ocean.
The people of Atlantis are very proud, and the meeting was held not in the Zebel Kingdom, not in the Fish-Man Kingdom, but in Atlantis, which is a manifestation of the strength of the country.
Don't say anything, let's go!
Ordinary people are not eligible to participate in the meeting, so they can only participate in the celebration to express their joy and excitement, and if the three kingdoms can really form an alliance, maybe Atlantis can return to its former glory.
The only thing that toiled was the army of the King of Atlantis, and the meeting was none of their business, and there was no celebration, except for standing guard and patrolling.
In the conference hall of the royal palace, the three kings sat in a priority position.
As the host, Aum and the royal blood of Atlantis sat firmly in the center according to their status, and the other two kings sat around a long table on the left and right, each with one or two advisers behind him.
It should be mentioned here that Vico, the advisor behind Orm, a member of the Council of the Throne of Atlantis, looks like a Green Goblin.
This guy is also a two-to-five boy, with Orm's salary, but secretly became Arthur's mentor, training Arthur to grow and teach him how to use his strength.
The most deplorable thing is that he often tells Arthur: The current king is not good, you are the master!
Poor Orm, from his mother to his fiancΓ©e, to his minister, everyone around him who has some ability is Arthur's man.
That is, because Arthur is a salted fish, and there is no big pursuit to get by, otherwise Orm would have knelt a long time ago.
"King Nereus! King Riku! β
Orm looked at the two kings, paused for a moment in respect, and continued: "Atlantis was once the greatest empire in the world, and now, in the face of a great threat on land, we have no ......choice but to endure because of the old laws and regulations."
"Two kings, we have been hiding for too long, it's time for Atlantis to rise again and tell the landers who is the true master of this planet!"
"Land people have always been passionate about violence, and sooner or later they will destroy themselves, and there is no need to see them as a threat." Nereus looked up and glanced at Orm lightly, seeing nothing but ambition.
"But they'll destroy us first!"
"For a century, people on land have not only plundered our resources, but also destroyed the environment, causing our living space to shrink sharply. They pollute the waters, poison our children and grandchildren, and the most terrible thing is that the temperature rises and the sea boils with it......"
"I have a different opinion on this."
Raku, the king of the Fish-Man Kingdom, interrupted by interjecting that he was a man on top and a fish on the bottom...... Uh, anyway, the skeleton is amazing, and the fish-man looks very thoughtful.
"King Ruiku, please speak!"
Orm knew it was another dissenting voice, but he had to listen, and he had to pretend to be a good listener.
"King Aum, rising temperatures will not cause the sea to boil, don't underestimate nature's ability to regulate, human activities will only cause polar glaciers to melt and sea levels to inundate land, which is a good thing for us."
ββ¦β¦β
Aum was speechless, for Riku had a point, and that when the sea flooded the land, the sons and daughters of the sea would win without a fight, and would henceforth be unafraid of the threat of humanity.
However, is there something wrong with Ruiku's focus?
The main content of today's meeting is to discuss the alliance of the three countries and restore the glory of Atlantis, and it does not matter who the enemy is, and the proposed object of war is only a formal excuse.
Humans can, aliens can too, there really isn't, and it's okay to make up one.
The three of them sat together to discuss the big cake of the Atlantis Alliance, how to divide it, and how much each person should take, instead of entangled in the threat of the enemy.
Aum thought that the two kings should understand in their hearts, but now that they looked, Riku didn't understand it at all!
He looked at the old man next to him, Nereus, and saw his disdainful face, grinning and sneering, and suddenly realized that Riku did not understand, but was fighting with the mud, and the political struggle had already begun, but he himself did not realize it.
If Russell were here, he would definitely sigh that the information was wrong, and the Fish-Man Country was not peace-loving, but it seemed to be peace-loving.
Phew, two old foxes!
After understanding this, Orm's heart was relieved, since everyone was interested, then things were simpler.
Isn't it just the same as the mud, it's the same as the urine of the fish people!
So, Aum put away the coldness on his face and responded with a smile: "King Ruiku, what you said is very reasonable, but time waits for no one, as I said just now, the landers will destroy us before destroying themselves. β
"Yes, continue to hide, our waters will only get muddier, it's time for the citizens to abandon the old ideas, but ......"
Ruiku first nodded in agreement, and then changed his words: "War with the land is not the only option, for the sake of the lives of the people, we should choose the right time to take the initiative to contact the land people, and find a way to educate them and make them realize their mistakes." β
"Makes sense!" x2
Orm and Nereus nodded in unison, and the question arises, who is going to make contact with the landers, or who is responsible for making contact with the landers.
This is not a trivial matter, and it is directly related to the ranking of the status of the Triple Alliance, because the slogan of the Triple Alliance is to wage war on land and save the living space under the ocean. Whoever becomes the savior who turns the tide and can reduce the number of casualties among the people will be the well-deserved boss of the alliance.
War is not an end, war is only a means, an extension of politics.
The three of them began to wonder what the result would be when they came to fight this battle, and how they would fight it in order to gain more political capital and be promoted to become the big brother of the alliance.
Nereus and Riku are the most interested, because Orm has royal blood and an unshakable position in prestige, and if they want to make their mark, they must have great feats in their hands.
Orm was also pondering, and said that the two of them thought too much, and he wanted all the merit and prestige!
"King Aum, it's not appropriate for you to come forward in this matter, I'm not questioning your ability, but ......"
The political game began, and Nereus used his trump card to 'dig the black spot': "As far as I know, you are not the first heir to the throne, there is a brother above you, if he appears one day, according to the imperial regulations, you must give up the throne, so the most suitable person should choose between me and King Riku." β
"I agree with King Nereus, it's safer to do so!"
Riku followed suit, and the two were afraid of the prestige of the Atlantean royal family and prepared to join forces to kick Orm out.
"Two, I am the initiator of the alliance, and you eliminated me as soon as you came up, your face is really ......"
Aum's face was pale, and he was pressed on the shoulder by the advisor Vico behind him, his eyes signaled not to spit out the fragrance, he took a deep breath, and said coldly: "The old law should be abolished, and even according to the imperial law, the half-blood bastard is not eligible to inherit the throne, and even my mother has been severely punished for this law." β
"King Orm, you remember wrong!"
"Yes, you're mistaken, the imperial laws only say that only those with royal blood can inherit the throne, and never say that mixed blood is not allowed."
Nereus and Riku sang and harmonized, making up their minds to squeeze Orm out.
Orm snorted coldly: "That's right, but the imperial regulations don't say that mixed blood is okay!" β
The three of them were in a stalemate, holding a set of backward rules and regulations, and at this moment, the guards walked in with a look of a ghost.
"King Aum, there is an emergency, the sea ...... The king of the Trench tribe asked to attend the meeting of the allies. β
"Who?" x3
"It's the king of the Trench Clan!" The soldier touched the cold sweat on his head.
"Are you sure it's the Trench Clan?" x3
The three of them looked at each other, and they all saw the bewilderment on each other's faces, it was unbelievable that the Trench Clan would come to the meeting, after all, ......
The Trench people can't speak, how are they going to attend the meeting and use their lame dance during courtship?
"King Orm, the king of the Trench tribe, called himself 'King Russell,' and he was outside the city...... He also brought a lot of people and claimed that if we didn't open the door, he would order the city to be slaughtered for three days! β
