"Aquaman's Crown?" Pannis raised his eyebrows and asked with some surprise, "What's that?"

"The plot in the novel. Lina replied without any need for recollection: "It is a novel that describes the beautiful daily life of humans and the sea people, it is simply funny, it is about a little fishing child who catches a greedy mermaid one day, and then often meets and chats and finally lives together." The mermaid is greedy and stupid, and loves to drink, and when he gets drunk, he messes around and then ......"

"Stop, stop, stop. Catherine decisively stopped Lina's eyes from shining: "I'll tell us the story when I get home, and now let's get to the point, what is going on with the Sea Emperor's crown." ”

"Oh, yes, the Sea Emperor's Crown. Lina barely suppressed her growing interest: "The gluttonous fish mentioned that many years ago, there was a crown among the Sea Tribe, and only the high priest was allowed to wear it. The crown represents the majesty of the god of the sea, and wearing the crown is equivalent to being in the sanctuary of Kalletto, and there are powerful bonuses in all aspects. ”

"Gone?" Catherine waited for a long time and found that Lina didn't continue: "That's all?"

"yes, that's all. Lina nodded: "Originally, it was not described as a key point, of course, there are only so many." The book is more than 1,000 years old, and I suspect the author may have actually come into contact with the Sea Tribes and then learned some about the bottom of the sea. ”

"You can't put that ...... Did the mermaid call out?" Catherine asked, "Wouldn't it be more convenient to ask her directly?"

"Not everybody wants to be friends with me. Lina's expression was a little downcast, and she shook her head and said, "I haven't been able to sense the people in this book." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Catherine patted Lina on the head, took the white crown back, shook her head, and said, "I really want to know what happened to make this happen." ”

For a while, in the minds of the five people, they were all fantasizing about the scene thousands of years ago.

It was already late at night, the calm sea was shrouded in thick fog, a sea ship was shuttling in the thick fog, the ship had already closed its sails, most of the sailors on board had returned to the cabin to rest, and the ship was slowly drifting with the waves on the sea. In the sea around the ship, a few glazed-eyed sea tribes tirelessly cruised around the big ship, and a few sea tribes attached to the boat to take turns to rest. The deck was empty, but the cabin was bustling with sailors gathering in twos and threes to play cards, drink, chat, gamble, and squander the night like every man who makes a living at sea. There was silence on the second floor of the ship, and everyone remained quietly in their cabins, silently wiping their weapons and armor. Before they set out, as fanatics, they already knew the dangers of this trip, but for the sake of the gods they believed, they preferred to laugh and give their lives. In the ceremonial hall on the third floor, several powerful men gathered and knelt in front of the statue of the god and prayed to the sleeping god to bless him with a smooth journey.

Beneath the depths of the sea, it was pitch black. A whale-shaped sea beast with a body size of almost the size of a small town, with more than a dozen brachiopods thousands of meters long growing on its back, lurked directly below the ship close to the bottom of the sea. Above the sea beast's head, a tall mermaid stood with its head up, its gaze seemed to cross the water four thousand meters deep and condense at the bottom of the sea ship. On her upturned head, the white crown emitted a faint white light, illuminating her taut countenance. After staying for a long time, the mermaid's tail gently slapped the head of the sea beast, and the huge body of the giant sea beast shook, and the wrists and feet behind it writhed, silently extending upward, bringing strings of white blisters in the sea water.

In the ships on the sea, everyone was still doing their own thing, the atmosphere was peaceful, there was no sign of battle, and even the strong people at the bottom did not have the slightest vigilance, chanting prayers in praise of the gods in unison. On the sea, several sluggish sea tribes on patrol suddenly became a little anxious, and a strong uneasiness appeared on their expressionless faces, and their bodies writhed to speed up the cruise, and they lost their own will and received orders to report the dangerous situation, but at this time, they were numb and only had a bad premonition, but they couldn't determine the specific danger, so they couldn't reciprocate.

The bubbles in the sea are getting denser and the brachiopods are extending upwards faster and faster. The roving Sea Clan suddenly let out a vigilant cry, but the speed of the brachiopods was almost faster than their voices. On the surface of the sea, more than a dozen wrists and feet suddenly drilled out of the bottom of the sea, rushing straight into the surrounding clouds, before anyone could react, the wrists and feet had already wrapped the boat tightly, followed by the force of recycling, dragging the ship into the water. The power of the huge sea beast like a city can be imagined, the buoyancy of the sea water is simply not enough to resist its downward force, and all parts of the ship let out a groan of broken planks, and it was dragged into the bottom of the sea several thousand meters deep in less than a minute.

After a few roars in the cabin, the walls of the ship were broken, and the strong men gathered on the third floor spread their shields, barely resisting the water pressure, and followed the hull to the bottom of the sea without leaving it, as if there was something in the hull that could not be given up.

On the ground at the bottom of the sea, the mermaid still raised her head, the statue was motionless, silently observing everything that was happening above through the current, seeing the ship getting closer and closer, she finally raised her hand, touched the crown on her head with some uneasiness, and seemed to have finally figured out something, and the tense expression on her face because of nervousness was also relieved, and then showed a smile that let go of all concerns.

The ship was getting closer to the bottom of the sea, and the strong men who were clinging to their tentacles or following the edge of the ship were getting closer and closer, and soon they could see each other with their sight. The eyes of both sides penetrated the barrier of tens of millions of tons of seawater, and for the first time they collided together, and there was no superfluous emotion in everyone's eyes, some were just cold and indifferent, indifferent to life, whether it was to the enemy or to themselves.

The mermaid stood silently on top of the sea beast's head, shook the water wave for the first time, let out a sigh that only he could hear, the fish's tail swung lightly, jumped into the sea beast's mouth, and followed the sea beast's huge body to move its huge body, and launched an attack on the small humans who were clinging to its wrists and feet above its head.

"And then?" Lina said, clasping her hands under her chest, tilting her head, "What will happen next?"

"How do I know. Pannis said with a smile: "We know that things are the same, and I can't know what you don't know, and your question is useless." ”

"I'm not really asking you. Lina kicked Penis in dissatisfaction: "I just can't imagine it anymore, but I really want to know the result later, why the Sea Emperor's crown appears here." ”

"Actually, if you think about it, it makes sense. Catherine said, "The result of this battle should be that both sides will be destroyed, and the merfolk side will eventually kill most of the enemy, leaving the captain of the guard mortally wounded." But by this time both the merfolk and the behemoth had run out of life and died, and the captain of the guard, who was not yet completely dead, took the crown that could rival their secret, and struggled to get back. Maybe he came back to seek healing, or to say one last prayer to his gods, or maybe he wanted to offer the crown to the gods? Whatever the reason, he crawled back and died before he could do anything. ”

"No, eldest sister, you don't understand, it's impossible. Lina shook her head and said, "A sect, if the archbishop is killed in battle and there is not even a body, but the captain of the guard is alive and well, that is the greatest shame, and the more devout the faith, the more unacceptable this shame is." Therefore, it is impossible for a captain of the guard to leave the archbishop's body and escape by himself, and even if he leaves everything, he will take the archbishop's body with him. ”

"Are there no exceptions?" asked Catherine, "like something important that compelled him to do so." ”

"Unless he wants to protect the holy relics in the sect, but ......" Lina pointed to the crown in Catherine's hand: "This is obviously not a holy relic, no, no, it should be said that this is obviously not a holy relic of their sect, so it is unreasonable for him to climb back on his own." ”

"You said that the chief of the guard would be by the archbishop's side. Pannis asked.

"I don't usually need to. Lina explained, "But if the archbishop himself goes to war, it will definitely be so. ”

"Have you thought about it? Pannis said, "What if he didn't climb back alone." ”

"You mean...... The archbishop also survived?" Lina's eyes lit up, but they darkened again, and she shook her head and said, "But if it is really two people who have survived temporarily, how can they be allowed to climb here on the ground little by little like now, look at the traces on the ground, obviously crawling with both hands." ”

"Not necessarily, the archbishop is also a human being, and he can get hurt. Pannis's voice came from afar: "If the archbishop himself is unable to move, naturally there will be no way to help him, and he has to follow the archbishop closely, so he crawls back." ”

"It's possible. Lina nodded, "But shouldn't you escape at this time, why do you have to work hard to crawl back here?"

......Catherine suddenly understood, and looked at Lina in surprise: "The survivors have to come and get something?"

"That must be the secret they have. Lina was also pleasantly surprised, "Otherwise, I can't think of anything more important in their eyes than the icon." The icon is still here, but there is no body of the archbishop, indicating that he chose the object and has succeeded in taking it away. Hey, Pannis, what are you doing over there?"

At this time, Lina realized that Pannis had run to the broken statue more than ten meters away, squatting on the ground and not knowing what she was looking at. Hearing Lina's question, Pannis grinned, "I'm testing your conjectures. (To be continued.) )
