Section 220 The Departed Princess
In Camille's palace, Aquaman Eric is drinking alone. There is some concern about the impending threat. Just then, the white-haired old man walked into the room and whispered something to him.
Aquaman Eric frowned slightly, and glanced at the other party in some surprise.
"How much do you say?"
"One million three hundred and seventy thousand star coins, Your Majesty."
"Just kidding, are they beggars?". Aquaman Eric's mouth opened slightly. "One million million star coins, why didn't they sell me"
"Your Majesty, they say it's an agreement you promised, and Lord Besco has already sent the bill."
“※*…… ¥※......" Aquaman Eric's face turned a little green. I was really taken aback by this bill. Although as the master of this planet, he is rich. But it hasn't reached the point where he casually squandered more than a million star coins. You must know that this is a star coin, a high-value currency as strong as a virgin breast peak, an ordinary person works hard for a month, and it is already a high income to get ten star coins............
"They...... You won't move an arsenal from Besque, will you? Quite a few words"
"It's pretty much the same, actually. It is said that they were interested in the collection of Master Besco. So I started a little harder......" the white-haired old man replied with a wry smile.
Aquaman Eric rubbed his temples with a headache, and finally waved his hand. "Forget it, so be it. Since it's an agreement. I can't break my promise. I hope that they will be able to show the corresponding strength after obtaining this batch of weapons. Whether or not the planet Camille can survive this chaos depends on whether they can do their best. ”
"By the way, how were the guests at the last banquet arranged?"
"It's all gone, and the villain has arranged for someone to keep an eye on it to ensure that they won't leak what happened this time."
"It doesn't make much sense." Aquaman shook his head. "Carson, since they can come here, there must be arrangements. I'm willing to bet that the Star Thieves have already set their sights on Camille, and blocking the news will only be a temporary measure. Besco said no, when will they be able to finish dressing the blood pupils? ”
"Five days, now there are only two days left." The white-haired old man replied in a low voice. "And the first armor has already been delivered. The rest of the armor will also be fully delivered on these two days. ”
"Let him hurry, we don't have much time."
"Yes."
Speaking of which, this conversation should have ended. But the white-haired old man had no intention of leaving. Aquaman gave him a strange look. "What, what's the matter?"
"This ...... The villain doesn't know whether to say it or not. The white-haired old man hesitated.
"What shouldn't be said, you're the old man who followed me. There's no need to hide it. Aquaman said impatiently. I picked up the glass and took a sip. "Say it. What the hell is embarrassing you? ”
"It's about Princess Avril."
"Huh?" Aquaman was stunned for a moment, then frowned again. "Avril, what's wrong with her?"
"Princess Avril seems to be a little distracted these days. According to the servants who served her, Princess Avril always likes to go to Lord Blood Pupil these days. Although she didn't show anything, everyone felt that Princess Avril seemed to ...... to Lord Blood Pupil"
"Hmm...... I've also found out a little bit about this. Aquaman fell silent, just taking a sip of his sullen wine. It took a long moment before he sighed.
"That's how her mother was in the beginning. This is probably the nature of the Camille mermaid. But this is not good, I have paid attention to the blood pupil, and it is definitely not a person who can stick to one place. If Avril had given him the Mermaid's Heart. So whether it's for Avril or Camille, it's not a good result. ”
"So......" Aquaman put down his glass and stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. Looking at the beautiful scenery outside, but his eyes were gloomy. "I'm not going to agree to that. You find a way to get in the way. At the very least, Avril should be given less contact with the blood pupil. And then arrange some young handsome ......."
"Your Majesty, those young handsome people are afraid ......"
"Then change some people. Don't let Avril sit idle anyway. If it doesn't work, tell Merial that I'm supporting her in her pursuit of the Blood Pupil. If she meant that, too. Aquaman waved his hand a little annoyed. Either way, Avril couldn't choose the Blood Pupil. Otherwise I'm sorry Emily was expecting. ”,
"Yes, Your Majesty." The white-haired old man hurriedly lowered his head. Respectfully answered.
"Go ahead, and ask the Cosmic Mercenary Headquarters when the reinforcements will arrive. Did they abandon the T6? If that's the case, I'm going to have to think about a different home. Although Camille Star doesn't have any special products, the mermaid tears every year are a good thing that everyone flocks to. I'm sure even Star Thieves or Death Mercenaries will be interested. ”
"Your Majesty, you can't. If the news of Mermaid Tears were known to the Star Thieves and the Dead Mercenaries, they would ruin this place. The white-haired old man was suddenly startled and hurriedly dissuaded.
Aquaman Eric smiled and shook his head. "I'm just talking. Rest assured, Mermaid Tears is the best genetic agent for mutation, and I promised Emily to help her protect this secret. So no matter what, I'm not going to let the Camille merfolk suffer a catastrophe. ”
"It's best if Your Majesty can think like this." The white-haired old man took a deep breath and lowered his head.
Then he was about to leave, but just as he was about to leave the room, an attendant came in and whispered something in his ear. The white-haired old man's face suddenly changed slightly.
"What's wrong?" Aquaman Eric noticed this and asked out loud.
"Your Majesty, I just got the news, Lord Blood Pupil, they ...... Leave Camille. ”
"Huh?" Aquaman was stunned. "Left? Did he say what to do? ”。
"No, Your Majesty."
"Hmm...... That's ......" Aquaman muttered for a moment, then shook his head. "Don't worry, mercenaries naturally have their own way of doing things. Now that the Blood Pupil has signed a deal with us. Then there is no need to care about his whereabouts. Leaving Camille may just be because he wanted to gather information about the Star Thieves. ”
"But Your Majesty...... Princess Avril is also on the boat, ......" The white-haired old man's voice trembled a little.
"What?" Aquaman was stunned for a moment, and then he was furious. "How could this be who allowed her to get on board. Don't you know that no mermaid is allowed to leave Camille? Are the guards of the airport idiots? Can't remember any of these requirements? ”
"Your Majesty, it's Princess Meria's help." The white-haired old man lowered his head and said with some frustration. At that time, she asked Princess Avril to disguise herself as a maid on the ship. By the time the guards found out, the shuttle had already taken off. ”
"Hell, don't tell me, Meria's girl is on the boat too"
"In fact...... It's like this......"
The "bastard" Aquaman Eric couldn't contain the anger in his heart anymore, and smashed the wine glass to pieces.
This matter is too serious, and it is more serious than the bottom line he can bear. You must know that there has been a prophecy in Camille for countless years, that is, the Camille mermaid must not leave the planet, otherwise it will inevitably lead to a monstrous disaster. Therefore, every mermaid princess will let find a strong partner as much as possible, and let the partner make a vow to protect Camille Star for the rest of her life. Aquaman Eric is one such Guardian.
Princess Emily, Aquaman's wife, is one of the most beautiful princesses in the history of Camille. Aquaman loved her more than himself. So he swore to Princess Emily a long time ago that he would protect Camille until the end. and thus gained Princess Emily's mermaid heart.
But he never imagined that Camille's countless years of tradition would be broken at the hands of his daughter. No matter what Avril wanted to do with Camille, it had already angered Aquaman.
"I knew I shouldn't let Avril play water polo. Her heart was no longer quiet. Aquaman took a deep breath and looked out the window at the blue undersea realm. She wants to be free, she wants to see the real universe. But she never thought about the consequences of this for Camille. Without the mermaid princess, there would be no guardians for the next generation. Camille's safety is no longer guaranteed. ”
"Your Majesty ......," the white-haired old man hesitated. Maybe it was just a whim on the whim of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and she would definitely be back. ”
"What about coming back?" Aquaman glanced at him and sighed. "After seeing the vast universe, can she still protect this planet in peace? Came back to someone, but not back to her heart. Camille's prophecy will always come true. ”
"Pass the order, contact the Blood Pupil's Shuttle, and let him return immediately, or I'll terminate the agreement and let Besk no longer deliver the remaining weapons."
"But Your Majesty ......," replied the white-haired old man, whose face was bitter, and his lips trembled a little. The news just now also said...... Master Besco has already delivered the rest of the armament ahead of schedule. And the airport also finished supplying the blood pupil's shuttle. ”
"Really...... In that case, there is no way to do it. Aquaman sighed again. Returned to his seat. "Then let her go. Anyway, Camille still has me. I'll continue to guard this place. Emily's hometown, I would never let anyone else touch it. ”
"Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work......" The white-haired old man lowered his head, tears of excitement flashing in his eyes.
But Aquaman didn't care about him anymore, but leaned back quietly in his seat, as if he had fallen into some kind of fugue.
"Emily, tell me what to do? Your daughter has grown up and she is beautiful...... Just like you did. But she doesn't have your loving heart. She was not willing to die for Camille. But I ...... But he has never been able to break through the meteorite star. ”
"I'm sorry, Emily. I failed to live up to your expectations...... I have failed the mermaid heart you gave me. It's true...... Sorry ......"
The room fell silent, only the face of the Sea King flickered in the light, like a statue of an eternal being......
At the same time, the blood pupil's shuttle had just pierced through the atmosphere and entered the vast ......universe.
