Behind the Great Hall of the Taiping Imperial City, there is a small conference room that passes through a long corridor that makes people feel quite serious. It is not used very often, and it is only used in special or emergency situations. The surrounding white walls are inlaid with spherical glowing garnets that emit a dignified blue glow. Illuminate the long table made of white spar polished in the middle of the conference room, in the middle of the table is the empress of the Taiping Imperial City, and on either side of the long table are Bai Luo, the gray-robed veteran representative and the new speaker, the military representative Torres, the intelligence review commissioner Green Sha, and Captain Akang who is wrapped in many bandages. Although I sat on a chair shaped like a mussel shell, I didn't feel relaxed at all. Everyone in the room listened carefully to Captain Ackon's account of his past experiences and discoveries, assessing how bad things would be next.

After listening to the captain's statement of past experience, the gray-robed veteran Bailov became even more solemn. The wrinkles on his face often make it impossible to see his squinting eyes hidden in the wrinkles. Today's hearing makes the wrinkles even more urgent. It's like a face that is constantly being tortured by a pair of strange hands called reality. Finally, he asked the intelligence commissioner, Midorisha:

"Do you have the manpower and material resources to verify the situation he said? Especially the matter of the Anemone Castle. ”

"Yes, after the captain's first round of statements before the meeting, I sent someone and my pet to investigate and verify, and the situation is true. The castle has collapsed, and it is true that the disintegrators inside have reported the death of the people involved. So it's almost certain that the captain didn't panic. ”

"Okay, Akang, don't say if you did the right thing before, you trespass on the forbidden land later, and you lose the holy relics due to carelessness, do you know how serious the consequences are? Do you know how much your recklessness will cost the country? ”

The captain's mood was a little apprehensive, but how many people would understand what he was thinking? After a few seconds of hesitation, he raised his eyes and said:

"I blame the things in the Forbidden Palace, but I have some questions in my heart that make me very confused, what does the memory left by the eel building worker of the Three Dynasties mean to Qiqi? Was the cause of Lord Quillen's death just to destroy Baron Star's brain reader? What is the great secret of the Thousand Thorns Master's reminder after years of seclusion? What does it have to do with Kiki?

All kinds of puzzles point to the depths of the labyrinth, so I can't resist the temptation of the truth to me. It's a pity that I didn't expect that the unguarded secret room of the Forbidden Palace was because it was unguarded, so that people couldn't find it, so that this secret would always be preserved. But it was precisely because I was unguarded that I underestimated the value of this secret that I was careless and got into trouble.

Judging from the whole thing, there are many points on the line of the story that are related to Kiki, there must be someone behind the scenes staring at something, what is the purpose of this person? Could it be a conspiracy that will endanger the Pacific Sea nations and the merfolk world? So the truth is so tempting to me that it ......

To be honest, I didn't know that the secret was a holy crown."

The gray-robed senior was not satisfied with Captain Akang's statement: "The deaths of several black-robed elders do not prove that they are all related to that Kiki girl, your logical reasoning is a bit far-fetched. You're blaming yourself for your own faults, aren't you? ”

"I'm sorry teacher, but your rigorous attitude is something I have always admired......"

"Akon, don't you know that I hate to listen to this kind of respectful words?" The wrinkles on Senior Bailov's face couldn't hide the fortitude in his heart: "There is no teacher for you here, only Bailov in a gray robe. ”

"That's it! Calm down. Let's get back to business! Her Majesty's slow voice with the momentum of the emperor suppressed the scene with the smell of gunpowder: "You master and apprentice haven't seen each other for some years, you should be calmer."

I believe that Captain Akang still remembers the hall with murals in the labyrinth that he passed through before entering the secret room, and the murals depict the heroes of the mermaid ancestors who differentiated the Zhi clan. He was the owner of this sacred crown, the Elder of the Camerano Mermaids, who was later known as the god of the sea. The sacred crown is the sacred relic left by the god of the sea after he created a new era of mermaids.

It is said that when this sacred crown is worn, the voice of God can be heard transmitting wisdom, and the three previous black robes have studied it for many years and imitated another crown. Unsuccessfully, however, it was discovered that the replica could read the minds of other creatures. Eventually, this imitation became what became the brain reader.

Assuming that Arcantero's purpose was to find and take away this artifact, he must have been deliberately collecting relevant information, and his means would naturally include the previous scramble for the Brain Reader, trying to use the Brain Reader to obtain information, including information about this artifact.

As for this Holy Crown, it was originally called the Holy Crown of Evolution. Although wearing the ability to listen to God's voice is not really useful for everyone. Only those who have gone through spiritual practice first and have profound skills are effective, and it is useless for ordinary people to wear them. If you start meditating incorrectly after putting it on, you may also have a great risk of mental breakdown or death. So more often than not, it is not advisable to use it in active secondary evolution.

This is the story of the lost relics, Captain Acon, and it is certain that you and Miss Kiki have been used by Arcantero to find the relics. He's such a genius of strategy! ”

General Torres, as a representative of the military department, was already vaguely anxious, out of the far-reaching thinking of the soldiers. He said:

"Your Majesty, things must not be too optimistic, perhaps far more serious than we think. The removal of the sacred crown of our nation is already a violation of the national word and a blasphemy against the ancient sages and gods. Regardless of whether or not Akentero, who took away the crown, went through spiritual practice to unlock the secrets of the crown, his form constituted treason, and both constituted a capital crime. Coupled with his ability to control a staggering number of whales, he has the strength to provoke a sea battle that will engulf the entire Pacific Ocean.

This is the worst-case scenario, and who can prove that Acantero does not have the ability to unlock the secrets of the Holy Crown? He had been planning for so long, and after the lessons learned from taking away the reading brain before, he must have come prepared this time.

So I propose, first, that we send men to find Arcantero's hideout as soon as possible and retrieve the relics; secondly, to begin to assemble the armies and armed forces of the various cities, villages, towns, and islands for mobilization and preparation for contingencies, and thirdly; Establish worst-case scenarios and evacuation strategies for citizens. ”

Although Green Yarn looks a little young, her words reveal a kind of calmness and ability:

"We are also responsible for the loss of the holy relics, although the holy relics were not guarded so that people could not guess where it was hidden, but it was still not hidden tightly enough for such a thing to happen.

So I agree with General Torres's proposal, he has a good point. Because the black-robed elders before the spiritual practice have all studied it, the most accomplished is the Quiren Member, and the Akentero who has an amazing source of information, that is, the younger brother of Quilen, probably also knows the method of spiritual practice.

It is said that Arcantero claims to be unable to fully control his pet zombie worm, and if it is true, it means that his second evolution has not reached the highest level. Therefore, it is necessary to seize the Holy Crown, and use the function of the Holy Crown to promote the final level of self-evolution. In this case, the logic makes sense. ”

The gray-robed patriarch White Love's gray hair and long beard could not hide the shame on his face:

"Your Majesty, I am also responsible for the loss of the holy relics. According to a tradition formed after the unification of the Pacific Sea States, in order to allow more children to survive, all children who are orphaned or separated from their parents are raised by their adoptive mothers and are eligible to receive spiritual guidance from the people appointed by the Imperial City, including guidance on the second evolution, so as to improve the children's ability to survive, and make them loyal to the country, love peace and uphold justice.

However, when the black-robed elder Kuilun instructed me to send someone to Wucun to pick up two girls to practice, he did not let me know that one of the girls had such a mysterious background. If it was too high, I wouldn't have sent a stupid student like me to take over this job. It's all my fault that his recklessness has brought about the situation I am today, and I'm really sorry for this country. ”

"Teacher, it's not your fault." Ah Kang didn't want the teacher to bear the blame for his mistakes: "This is my fault, it's all caused by me, let me take responsibility for myself!" ”

"Alright! Now is not the time to fight over this. Her Majesty raised her hand to signal the two of them to calm down and take care of the spirit: "The Pacific Ocean is a vast world, and the encounter between people is fate. If today's situation is a catastrophe, it is pointless to blame anyone. What's more, the wise three black-robed elders and the sea anemone thousand thorns have all passed away, and we have lost quite a powerful helper, and subsequent political decisions need to be more cautious and national security supervision more strict. Perhaps, as Torres feared, a new sea battle was coming. ”

"Your Majesty the Empress," Ah Kang couldn't sit still, "I lost the holy relics, and I brought them in by the people who took them." I have a duty not to shirk to recover the relics myself, and even more so to prevent Arcantero's plot from succeeding. So let me go after Akentero and reclaim the relics myself! ”

"Well," replied the Empress after a moment's thought, "who made you a detective?" Finding lost items and catching bad guys is all in your area of responsibility. Go, and get Arcantero back before he unlocks the secret of the Holy Crown.

In addition, when tracking the whereabouts of Arcantero, Midori will share it with you!

One more thing, Captain Akang, the girl named Kiki asked her to stay in the Imperial City first. First, I will arrange for someone else to take care of her and guide her in her practice, and second, you can work without interruption. I hope you can return triumphantly soon. ”

"Hmmm! There is a new situation coming. Green Veil's eyes lit up, and her pet bonito sent a message: "Just discovered that Akentero had fled with the relics to a small island on the equator, and he tried to escape from the island's freshwater river upstream to an inland lake or river by swimming backwards. Location......"

After the meeting ended, Captain Akon set off, and he didn't have time to explain anything to Kiki, but he knew that it would be safe for Kiki. As he walked through the streets leading to the outside of the Imperial City, through the bustling city gates and into the sea, a new mission beckoned. Something will await him ahead.
