980 Civilization has progressed and customs have been corrected
Although Cassus called it a joke, Ariel made a vow in her father's name.
"Just help me solve the troubles in the Shandun Sea Valley and let this place be stable again, let alone marry me and let me be a slave!"
Don't look at her so sacrificial, but holding on to Carsus and never having anything to do with Cheyenne is enough to prove the mermaid princess's ...... Smart.
Needless of course thanked, but promised to help as needed.
Entering the valley through the small gate on the mountain wall, Cheyenne said to Cassus, "What about the mermaid princess, are you really not tempted?"
"Uncle, I understand. ”
Cassus sighed: "You have tested me all the way, I will not make mistakes." ”
Cheyenne smiled: "How can this be a mistake? Even if the mermaid class is what we want to defeat, it doesn't mean that the mermaid can't betray their class." Isn't it also a credit for you to marry her and let her complete such a transformation?"
Cassus said resolutely: "We have always opposed the use of love and marriage as a means of revolution, and I have no feelings for her. Even if you are the team leader, uncle, you have no right to ask me to do this. ”
Cheyenne snorted: "Isn't it just disgusted that other people's wet and bad affection, you are racist!"
Carsus decided to ignore him, evil gods are evil gods.
Cheyenne turned her head and talked about this underwater world that is so beautiful that you can only see it in a mirage drama: "As I originally expected, this inner seabed is not naturally formed, it is artificially constructed, it is equivalent to a small subplane, very similar to the Storm Islands subplane that Xiaohong and the cardinal killed, but it does not have the function of deriving magic nets. ”
"It feels like this sub-plane has existed for a longer time than the Storm Islands sub-plane, and I guess it's a relic left by the Magic Empire when it developed the ocean, and then it was used as a refuge by the sea spirits. ”
"No wonder, such a weak race as a mermaid can become the ruling class of Sea Spirit. Domesticating sea beasts, controlling the king of sea beasts, positioning in the sea, and even some low-level psychic spells are not the root causes. What really allowed them to rule over other sea spirits was this plane barrier. ”
Cheyenne is worthy of being a god, just a cursory look and feeling, and he peeked through the mermaid's hole cards: "I guess that only the mermaid can operate the secondary plane barrier here." Several epochs have changed, and disasters have arisen on land, and the same is true in the oceans. The merfolk can decide who enters the shelter, and naturally become the ruler of the Sea Spirit Society. ”
"If you want to go back to the roots, I suspect that the merfolk are the assistants of the magicians who built these shelters in the first place, weak, intelligent, empathetic, and eye-catching. ”
Cassus pretended not to hear the last half of the sentence......
Indeed, as Cheyenne said, the inner seabed is artificially constructed, otherwise it is difficult to explain why there is abundant light and abundant aquatic plants. The water is crystal clear and always moving, and the water pressure gauge shows that it is only a shallow sea at a depth of about 100 meters.
Across the mountain wall, there is a wide canyon dotted with houses made of coral shells, and in the distance there are large complexes of buildings piled up on the canyon wall, which looks like a royal palace.
Ariel swung her fishtail and sprinted at a speed of 100 meters, with Cassus and Cheyenne following effortlessly, surprising Ariel and the two Naga Guardians again.
The marine armament on their bodies has not yet turned on the full speed mode, otherwise it would be hundreds of knots.
"Follow me!"
This behavior made Ariel feel more at ease, and simply grabbed Cassus's hand and swam to the palace together, leaving Cassus speechless in the face of Cheyenne's funny face.
The underwater city should be very lively, but the door is closed at the moment, and there are few people scattered around...... No, Hailing. All kinds of strange sea beasts roam aimlessly, as if they had lost their souls.
At the end of the palace was a large number of Naga, but she did not know Ariel and the Naga Guard Captain beside her, and was dispelled by a sharp wave of water sent by Ariel, and Cassus and Cheyenne rushed into the palace after her.
Cheyenne was still complaining: "It looks like I can't drink a sip of hot tea." ”
The two humans remained in the outer hall of the palace, making an appointment with Ariel to call them over the intercom if needed.
Ariel hurried deeper into the palace with the Naga guards, and Cassus and Cheyenne were looking around curiously, this is the material for future filming of ocean-themed mirages, Daniel's indistinct voice sounded.
"There's a bit of a problem with communication, what are you doing down there?"
Daniel's tone was a little solemn: "The situation on my side is not very good......"
The Shanton Maelstrom sits in a deep trench between a series of towering mountains at the bottom of the ocean, and Wild Hunter One hovers over the mountainside of the highest mountainside, the valley of which is home to the Outer Valley Fish-Man tribe.
Along the way, Daniel also learned more about the Sea Spirit Society, for example, the Sea Spirit also needs sunlight and air, but in the shallow sea, such places are not only rare but also unsafe, and they will be all destroyed when the era changes. The previous disappearance of the second-dimensional mask of the Storm Islands caused by the tsunami also destroyed many Sea Spirit tribes in the shallow sea, and suffered heavy casualties.
The inner underwater world beneath the Maelstrom is only inhabited by merfolk and their high-ranking vassals, such as the Naga. Fish-people, like low-level sea spirits, either live in shallow seas or near maelstroms. A lot of air and light leaks out from the cracks in the mountains under the sea, enough to feed a lot of fishmen.
In the home of rushing and rushing, countless naga, sea snakes, walruses, manatees and seahorses, and of course, more other fishmen with different fins from the outer valley fishmen, are killing the outer valley fishmen.
Every valley was like a boiling hot pot, the blood was cloudy in the dim darkness of the sea, and the sound of oooh lala and the sound of blades crashing was transmitted through the water waves, lapping the protective barrier of Wild Hunt One, and then converted into air by the microphone.
Daniel's "bad situation" is not focused on the killings in the valley, but on a few "schools of fish" that have gathered dozens of kilometers away from the submarine.
On the Lingzi radar, it is just a school of fish, and on the soul scanner, it is the number of hundreds of thousands of sea spirits, and the distribution is not from one force.
"This is the ...... we did"
Daniel smiled bitterly and said, "The upper echelons of the Sea Spirit have collapsed and are readjusting the power structure. Several large maelstroms nearby have formed a faction, and they are preparing to take this place down in one go, I think ......"
Daniel hesitated, but offered his opinion: "We should be responsible. ”
Cassus didn't know how to respond, but Cheyenne said with certainty: "Of course, that's what we're here for." ”
As she spoke, the depths of the palace shook slightly, and at the same time, Ariel's shout rang out over the communicator.
The two of them hurriedly activated the fast mode of the sea armament and rushed into the depths of the palace.
They didn't have the time to find a way, so they smashed through the coral walls and saved the Naga before they were about to use their tridents to pierce the transparent barrier protecting Ariel.
Needus's large-scale psychic impact caused Naga to collapse most of the time, and Cheyenne didn't move at all, in fact, he secretly used unknown magic to put him down, and it seemed that Carsus was showing his might alone.
"Uncle, don't fool me!"
Cassus saw through Cheyenne's trick and gritted his teeth in warning.
Ariel lifted the barrier, gave Cassus a look of wonder and gratitude, and then turned into sadness and cast herself to the end of the hall.
On the throne, an old mermaid swayed slightly with the waves, and the crown on his head showed that he was Ariel's father, the master of the Sandon Valley.
"Father, I will fulfill your last wish, and I will restore peace to the Sandon Valley. ”
"As for all the Sea Spirits in the entire Storm Ocean, I don't have that much power, but I swear that I will be as wise and steady as you, and learn from you to communicate with the other Sea Valley Lords to reunite the Sea Spirits. ”
Ariel floated up to her father's side, and dots of crystal sparkle flew out of her eyes, which were extremely precious mermaid tears.
Those mermaid tears quickly dimmed, and a faint purple light flashed on the belt of Xia An's marine armament, which was obviously secretly picked up by Xia An.
Needus covered his face, he still had a lot of respect for this god, but now it was almost shattered.
The mermaid princess took off her crown and took the scepter, which caused a group of merfolk shrunk in the corner to scream angrily and unwillingly, but the Naga gathered around Ariel and the two strange "puppets" who rushed in made them dare not take any action.
Ariel put on her crown and raised her scepter, and an unusual aura enveloped the young mermaid, a strange association with some kind of powerful power, which made her very different from before.
Cheyenne explains, "The crown and scepter should be the magic guides that control the enchantment authority......"
The scepter pointed at the merfolk, and Ariel said coldly, "Brothers, sisters, don't think that without Leviet, the world would be different. Without Leviet, and without me, and with all the Sea Spirits who yearn for peace, you will never allow the Sea Spirits to fall into fratricidal chaos!"
These words made Cassus couldn't help but send a series of ellipses to Cheyenne, and Cheyenne also replied to him with a string of ellipses, and the tacit understanding was all silent.
Aliel said viciously: "Now, if you don't disappear from my eyes immediately, I will follow my father's example when he first ascended the throne!"
The mermaids and men slipped a few times, and they all ran out.
It seems that the old man Fish King held out until the last moment and passed the throne to Ariel. Compared to the other children, Ariel, who served as the High Priest of Leviit, was clearly the best choice.
"Thank you, ...... Cassus"
Sure that the threat was eliminated and the throne was in hand, Ariel was almost paralyzed and floated up, and she looked at Cassus gratefully, and the other human was naturally ignored.
Cheyenne was very confused: "Don't rush to deepen your relationship first, there is more trouble outside." ”
"What!?"
Ariel almost fainted with a roll of her eyes, and several surrounding sea valleys have come to attack here?
She subconsciously grabbed the human boy's arm and shook it: "Carsus......"
Cassus didn't speak, and Ariel finally looked at the other human: "That'...... Summer...... Cheyenne?"
"Carsus is thin-skinned and embarrassed to ask for conditions, I'm thick-skinned. ”
Cheyenne smiled and smiled wickedly: "Your Royal Highness Princess...... No, it should be Her Majesty, you should understand my conditions. ”
Cassus coughed and interrupted Cheyenne: "We are here for the freedom and happiness of the sea spirit, so if we protect this place, you don't have to be the queen, let the Shanton sea spirit take care of himself." ”
Ariel looked at Carsus with an incredulous gaze, "Don't want the queen, take care of yourself, are you crazy, Carsus?"
Cheyenne gave a thumbs up to Carsus' vision, and then said to Ariel, "It doesn't matter if we're crazy or not, that's what it is." If you really care about your fellow man, and not covet the power that this crown and scepter represents, say yes as soon as possible, time is running out. ”
Ariel hugged the scepter: "It's not just a symbol of power, it's ......"
"You're also in charge of operating the barrier, right?"
Cheyenne interrupted her unceremoniously: "Let the sea spirits elect their own representatives to take care of it, if your people still believe in you, then you can still have it." ”
The secret of 10,000 years was revealed by outsiders, and Ariel was extremely shocked: "How do you know ......"
She was not an ordinary little girl, she quickly calmed down, her eyes flickered, she muttered for a moment, and nodded lightly: "I promise you, but I will go outside with you and watch you fight off those enemies with my own eyes before I fulfill my promise." ”
Carsus grabbed her arm and swam out, time was of the essence.
Cheyenne complained: "Sure enough, I said that I couldn't drink a sip of tea." ”
"Wait......"
Ariel broke free of Carsus and swam back to the throne, hugging her father's corpse.
The two humans thought that the mermaid queen was saying goodbye to her father, but Ariel then opened her mouth, bit the old man's shoulder, hissed a piece of meat, and squeaked and ate it.
Eat it......
Ate ......
Seeing the bloodshot floating at the corner of Ariel's mouth, Cassus subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
He said in an extremely serious tone: "Uncle, if you reconcile me with her again, I will hate you to death." ”
Cheyenne was still muttering: "This is a custom of other people, you have to respect ......"
In the end, he still admitted defeat: "Okay, backward customs have to be corrected, and those who eat themselves and eat other people's creatures are not qualified to join the big family of Datongism." ”
