"Now?"

Fisher glanced at the still hazy moonlight outside, and asked Jasmine.

"Hmm"

Jasmine next to her nodded, and at the same time stretched out her hand, only to see that the white skin there was covered with complex and strange markings, and the markings were full of pitch-black curse power, at this moment, her curse was so strong that just touching the items on the ship would corrode,

"My curse is too strong for me to control any longer, and I'm afraid that something will happen if I continue to live on shore. Both Xiang Soul and my mother sensed my condition, and they wanted me to go back to the trench for a while to rest, and I wanted to tell them what was going on on the shore. And, in my state, even if I want to be with Fisher again... I'm afraid it won't help much. ”

"Fisher's words helped me a lot and I'll go back and think about it for a while. And then. I think I'll go ashore again, go see other places and people I haven't seen before, and see how the world works, I was a little naïve before, and caused a lot of trouble for you and everyone else, sorry. ”

"Then, when I really grow up, I'll come back, after all, I can't be a student of Fisher for the rest of my life, can I?"

Fisher raised an eyebrow, turned his head to look at Jasmine, and then asked with a smile,

"Is this also a covenant of the whale race?"

Whale people always like to make promises with others, and once they make a promise, they will definitely keep them, whether it is Jasmine's mother and Godlin I made a vow to return the sword, or Wood Rhino and Blake's marriage vow, compared to the human need to rely on blood oaths to bind each other, it should sound a lot better.

"Well, compared to humans, the whale races' sense of time is too dull, the sun rises, the moon sets, the vicissitudes of the sea, and all things grow have no reference meaning for us, so only the promises that need to be fulfilled with others make us especially cherish the promise I made to Fisher, and I will definitely come back."

"Also, ask Fischer to take care of Isabel, she is broken by her sister, she is actually very uncomfortable with the outside environment, I am very worried about her"

"Okay."

Fisher then leaned against the railing, gazing at the calm ocean with Jasmine, her tail curled up a little in response to Fisher's response.

But after this Fisher's promise, there seemed to be no other words to speak between them, but strangely enough, the atmosphere between them did not stiffen because of this.

Fisher is still the same Fisher as before, but the whale race Jasmine next to him seems to have changed a little.

In the quiet of time, Jasmine suddenly leaned in Fisher's direction, narrowing the distance between them, and then she reached out to Fisher again.

On the raised hand, the black ominous lines slowly faded as she reached close to Fisher, revealing her skin once more.

She tentatively took Fisher's palm, and after making sure that he was not cursed to drain his life, she immediately dragged him closer to her.

By the time Fisher turned his head to face her, she had stood on tiptoe and kissed Fisher on the corner of the mouth.

"Po"

The gently colliding sweet smell accompanied by the moisture mixed in the night breeze fell on the corners of Fisher's mouth, making him subconsciously clench Jasmine's palm, and took the initiative to respond to her youthful and simple contact.

It wasn't until a few seconds later that the satisfied Jasmine let go of Fisher with her body limping and unable to maintain her tiptoe state, her ears kept fanning, and her face revealed a faint pink.

"I don't have anything else to agree on, so I have to woo."

"It's okay, I'll remember."

"Hmm"

But the next second they kissed, Fisher suddenly felt the nearby sea breeze gradually become insolent, and the fierce sea breeze hit his face like a knife, blowing his black hair scattered.

He and Jasmine stretched out their hands to block the wind, but when they looked in the direction of the ocean, Fisher suddenly realized that the sea below the Iceberg Queen seemed to be covered with a thick layer of shadows.

The vast shadow was not a simple dead thing, but seemed to be constantly approaching the surface of the sea in one breath and one breath, and a great sense of oppression came from nothingness towards Fisher on the ship, but he did not take a step back.

The manic, knife-like sea breeze seemed to cut the ocean, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be dead at this moment, only to see the top of a dark sea beast's head peeking out of the cut ocean.

Because the sea beast under the sea is so huge, it only shows the topmost part of its head when it comes to the surface.

But even the topmost part of the ship is much larger than the Iceberg Queen that Fisher is riding today.

You must know that the Iceberg Queen was originally a warship of the Northern Sardinia Country, and the Northern Shipbuilding has always been the largest tonnage among several countries, so the huge extent of the sea beast in front of you can be imagined.

"Fragrant Soul! And mom."

Jasmine's voice of surprise rang out, and the next moment, Fisher realized that there was a figure sitting on top of the huge sea beast with its legs crossed.

As far as he looked, a woman of peerless elegance slammed into Fisher's eyes roughly.

She was simply dressed in a dress made of strange seaweed fabric, which was stained with the sea, so it lazily lay down the skin of the sea beast; And she herself was lazily and expressionlessly holding her cheek with one hand, silently looking at Jasmine and Fisher, who had just separated from the ship.

Her long blue hair, which fell like stars, swayed without the wind, highlighted the blue and black sea in her eyes, and the huge sea in those eyes was turbulent, and in every wave and every tide seemed to have thousands of faces and thunder flashing, giving people a contradictory scene of majesty and love.

Her face was as handsome as that of a goddess, and the whale tail behind her was quite huge, with long ears hanging down like jasmine, but at this time, she was wearing a crown made of gold on her forehead, and there was no mark in the middle of the crown, but along the crown upward, the air above was oppressed by her aura and trembled violently, and the ocean was simply separated in front of her and the sea beast.

That is Jasmine's mother, the emperor of the sea, Xuanshen.

What really made Fisher feel a little oppressed was that now the ocean outside the Iceberg Queen had changed color so wildly, but there was a dead silence around, as if the sound of the ocean had been stripped from Fisher's ears, and no one in the whole ship had woken up, as if there were two living people in the whole ship, Fisher and Jasmine, you said that this has nothing to do with Xuanshen, Fisher is completely unbelievable.

And this meeting made Fisher, who had kissed her daughter in front of her just now, suddenly embarrassed,

He subconsciously wanted to say hello to the legendary Emperor of the Sea, after all, according to generations, she was even earlier than the era of Fisher's ancestors.

But how to call Xuanshen became a difficult problem for Fisher, and many alternative titles flashed through his mind, and after a full second, he made a gentleman's salute to the woman in the ocean, and said by the way,

"Dear Emperor of the Sea, I am anthropologist Fisher, and it is an honor to meet you."

"The Emperor of the Sea and the Sea? That's what my mother liked to call when she was young."

Jasmine covered her face, as if she was a little embarrassed for her mother, if she had known that Fisher would call her mother the Emperor of the Sea, she would not have told Fisher about it.

But the woman in the distance was slightly stunned and then did not make any reply, but instead raised a beautiful smile at the corner of her mouth.

The next moment, she just stretched out her hand slightly, and the sea beast went up some distance again, and a large area of sea beast skin like land appeared on the ocean, serving as a bridge between the Iceberg Queen and the Xuanshen.

Seeing this, Jasmine on the boat pursed her lips, turned her head to look at Fisher, and finally said,

"I'm going home, Fisher."

"Go ahead, take care."

"Well, you too"

After saying goodbye to Fisher, Jasmine jumped off the edge of the Iceberg Queen without hesitation and fell onto the head of her companion Sea Beast Scented Spirit.

Obviously, Jasmine's weight was not heavy, but when she landed on Xiang Soul's body, the sea beast also began to run in the direction of Xuanshen and sink towards the bottom of the sea.

The raging water gradually enveloped Jasmine, and the pitch-black curse on her body faded a lot, and by the time she returned to Xuanshen's side, they were almost completely submerged in the water, and Jasmine took one last look at the Iceberg Queen standing quietly on the sea.

"Mom, I'm back"

"Hmm."

"Whoa."

In the silence of the night, as a woman's "um" shattered the dead silence on the sea like thunder, the sound of countless oceans finally poured into Fisher's ears again.

The behemoth beneath the sea in front of him sank rapidly, pulling at the blurred shadows that soon disappeared from Fisher's sight.

The vanished sea beast brought up violent waves, pushing the Iceberg Queen and shaking violently, and only then several fresh cries were heard from the cabin, it was the crew of Arajina who woke up,

"Are there any enemies?"

Aragina at the back of the captain's room first pushed open Fisher's door, and when she found him gone, she hurriedly ran to the deck, and when she finally saw Fisher standing safe and sound by the deck fence, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're fine, what's going on?"

Fisher glanced at Aragina who came out, and behind her there was a fat first mate yawning in her pajamas, and even the steel knife parrot flew out, he smiled apologetically, and then said,

"Sorry to wake you up. Nothing happened, just I was just sending my students home."

"Your students? The Ocean Subhuman? Oh, thank goodness, I thought there was a sea monster attacking us."

Pahertz crouched beside the boat, staring at the dark waters below, but she didn't notice anything, she turned around and smacked her lips, only to see that the fat parrot was also looking down,

"See? Look at what, and you, go back to sleep! Nothing happened! ”

"First mate, it's almost half past six, still sleeping?"

Hearing the reminder from the crew, Pahertz looked up slightly stunned and looked far to the east, and sure enough, at the end of the horizon, a little bright sunlight continued to spread along the surface of the sea, until the entire Iceberg Queen was enveloped in it.

It turned out that it was already dawn.

All the crew members looked at the rising sun, full of warm sunlight that continued to spread to give people an unknown sense of hope, even Pahertz looked at the sun for a second or two, and then she smiled and scolded at the group of talking back to the crew,

"Then go wash up and have breakfast, and then go to work!"

"Clean the deck! Start the engine! Raise the flag! ”

"New adventures await us!"

The newborn sun pierced the gloomy sky and lit up half of the sky of St. Nari, but even hotter than the sun was the atmosphere in front of the Golden Palace.

In front of the square in front of the Golden Palace, countless people had gathered before dawn, and they were crowding forward, as if they were afraid of being slower than anyone.

Although the door to the attic above the Golden Palace was still closed at this time, this did not prevent them from picking a good spot and waiting for the important ceremony to be held here in a short time.

A few days ago, there was an event in the Golden Palace, when Prince Lensis and Blake, the shareholder of the Pioneer Company, conspired to assassinate Prince Dexter, and Saint-Nari caused a great deal of turmoil, and the people's disappointment with the New Party, the sensitivity of the Pioneer Company to some changes, and at the same time, it fell into the stage of the most distrust of the official since the Pioneer Fever.

Newspapers are filled with discussions, and countless different opinions and debates are staged every day.

But just when everyone was at a loss, Her Royal Highness Princess Elizabeth took decisive action to rectify the defeat.

With the successive deaths of the two princes, there are only two young princes who are not yet minors in the entire Golden Palace, compared to the two princes who are not yet adults, the people can no longer hold back the anger in their hearts, and for two consecutive days in front of the Golden Palace to ask the parliament to recognize Her Royal Highness Elizabeth as the next queen.

This unconventional female succession to the throne was finally included in the parliamentary resolution process, which was voted on by the new party, the griffin party and other smaller parties, representing the people, for a total of 460 seats, and finally passed by the griffin party unanimously, and the new party voted by a majority to reach a unanimous consensus.

At this moment in the Golden Palace, Elizabeth was standing expressionlessly in front of a tall floor-to-ceiling mirror, and many maids in the Golden Palace were anxiously surrounding her, wearing golden female crowns for her.

The tiara used by King Nari when he ascended the throne was traditionally only male styles, but due to the need for Elizabeth's accession to the throne this time, Nari's designers worked anxiously overnight to finally make a formal garment.

According to Elizabeth's requirements, this garment is smart but not bloated, restrained but not luxurious, and it is the most suitable interpretation of an empress.

As the last golden tiara was placed on Elizabeth's head, she also gently opened the empty golden eyes.

"Your Majesty, the head of the New Party, the head of the Griffin Party, the head of the Hidden Bureau, the members of the Magic Association and the Church have all arrived at the Golden Palace and are now seated."

"Call Martilon in."

"Yes."

In fact, according to the rules, no courtier can enter the Golden Palace until Emperor Nali ascends the throne, but Elizabeth doesn't talk about any rules, if you want to mention the rules to her, she will take off your head, and then let another person who does not mention the rules help her do things.

As the maids of the inner palace exited the spacious dressing room, Elizabeth gently waved her hand to disperse the many maids beside her with their heads bowed, and walked out of the room with her golden scepter and long skirt.

Walking through the spacious corridors of the Golden Palace, past the Praetorian Guards standing in place with cold faces next to her, she had already walked alone to the room in front of the enthronement platform.

The throne was just above the gate of the Golden Palace, and according to the rules, the newly enthroned Emperor Nali needed to walk out of the gate alone, and then appear before the crowd, announce to his people that he had taken the throne from his father, and swear to protect the safety and development of Nari's people with his life.

Originally, there should have been many ceremonial officials here, but at this moment, there was only Elizabeth here.

She killed her own brother Dexter here, although the carpet has been replaced by the people in the Golden Palace once, but in fact, Elizabeth doesn't mind that they left the loot-like items, but after all, they have changed it for themselves privately, and they have also disposed of Dexter's body, so that's it.

She sat down in the only chair in the room, and before she could hear a rush of footsteps, and then there was a knock on the door.

"Buckle."

"Your Majesty, Mr. Matillon, the leader of the New Party, has arrived."

"Let him in."

Martillon's old body reluctantly pushed open the great door, and he cautiously glanced at the furnishings in the room, only to find it clean except Elizabeth, who sat in the middle of the room with her back to him.

But I don't know if it's an illusion, the tip of his nose can always smell a faint smell of blood, and as he walks into this room, the smell of blood gets stronger and stronger.

Elizabeth didn't look back, just gently hooked her hand at him, but this simple action made Matilon swallow a mouthful of saliva involuntarily, as if sitting in front of him was not an emperor about to ascend the throne, but a terrifying monster.

The great sense of oppression made his old body even more stiff, and he walked to a position about four or five steps away from the chair and stopped, and then tentatively opened his mouth,

"Your Majesty, is there anything you have to do with calling me here?"

Elizabeth didn't speak, but turned her head slightly, and her pale golden eyes easily bit the old man in front of her.

In the next second, she beckoned again, but as if she could control Matilon's body, he subconsciously took two steps forward.

"In the previous vote, 460 votes, the ruling new party took 270 votes, but 93 votes voted against the agenda of my accession to the throne."

A little visible sweat broke out on Martillon's old face, and he glanced cautiously at Elizabeth in front of him, who he had known since Elizabeth came to power that the new party was going to suffer.

At that time, the new party was faced with a dilemma, if it agreed to Elizabeth's accession to the throne, then the new party was likely to lose its ruling position in the future, after all, she had the griffin party behind her, and she still had the evidence of the new party in her hand, and it was impossible to say that the new party would not attack the new party; And if Elizabeth does not agree to the throne, the evidence will be dispersed, and the new party will even dissolve on the spot, because most people will go to prison for it.

Before such a fateful decision, Martillon did not want to interfere with their decisions and let the members of the new party decide for themselves.

As a result, most people decided to live and voted for Elizabeth, and only a few people were greedy or not greedy to insist on their ideas, and they were sure that Elizabeth would not be able to control them, which was the inside story behind the votes of the New Party.

Thinking of this, Matilon sighed and said to Elizabeth,

"Tomorrow I will officially resign as the leader of the new party, and the new party will no longer participate in the formal election in the next formal election, I don't know."

"No, Mr. Matillon, you can't resign, and your new party can't afford not to participate in the elections."

Elizabeth's words made Matilon raise his head quite unexpectedly, only to see the beautiful Queen with a little smile, her hands in front of her lower abdomen and looking at herself with deep meaning,

"What do you mean? However, the griffons have been waiting for this position for a long time, and it is not without a price for them to help His Majesty. ”

Having said that, it is actually quite clear.

Martilon knew that the Griffins had put their chips on Elizabeth, using them to help her ascend the throne as a bargaining chip, and the reward was to return to their ruling position after she ascended the throne, which should be their deal, but now Elizabeth said that the new party should not not participate in the election

So, what does Elizabeth mean?

"You're right, the Griffons have pinned their hopes on me, trying to take off with my ascension to the throne. But it never occurred to them that I didn't want to fulfill my promise to them. Mattilon, you are an old man who is about to die, or a smart man, which is why I am telling you this, and I am sure that you have a number after listening to it. ”

"Not only can you not resign, but you also have to take the new party to fight with the griffin party, how to fight, how to do it, I will teach you. But the premise is that I will throw away all the 93 votes in the party, and you had better have only one unanimous opinion, and that is to listen to me. Otherwise, my eyes are not good, and if I cut the wrong place with a knife, you don't blame me. ”

Hearing this, Martillon's breathing immediately became rapid.

He kind of understood that a deal with the Griffons was complete nonsense, even if the Griffons were her stepping stones, she didn't want to help the Griffons take the throne at all.

She doesn't want a weak new party, she doesn't want a strong griffon, she wants two dogs who fight to the death but are both half dead!

And Elizabeth put in front of Matilon again not an olive branch at all, but a chain of bondage!

As far as she is concerned, if the New Party can listen to her and the Griffin Party fight again, then she will not mind helping the New Party continue its life; If the new party doesn't listen to her, then ruining it and picking up another new dog is a good option.

Defeated and dead or sent to the fence?

Of course, there may be some hesitation in the face of other emerging New Party members, but Elizabeth is very picky, and he picks Mattilon, who has devoted his life to the New Party.

And she obviously knew all about what the old man who was about to die and wanted to stay and something would do...

Martilon's mouth opened, and then replied in a somewhat dry voice,

"I'll get them to resign from the 93 councillors."

"Bell, bell!"

At this moment, the bell outside, which represented the imminent beginning of the enthronement ceremony, was ringed, echoing one by one in front of the Golden Palace Square, where thousands of people gathered.

At the same time, the Royal Orchestra played high-spirited music under the Golden Palace, as if symbolizing a big curtain, the opening of a grand ceremony.

"The soul of gold keeps flowing! My Emperor, Godling, noble bloodline, please continue once again and lead Nari to glory! Yes! Godling! ”

The song of the royal orchestra rang out, and countless people also stood up and sang along with their songs.

Suddenly, the thunderous Godlin's enthronement song resounded throughout the Golden Palace, as if laying out the red carpet for the soon-to-be-born emperor.

In the midst of the thunderous singing, Elizabeth calmly stood up from her chair, she smiled slightly, and looked at the piercing coldness hidden in Mattilon's eyes,

"Mr. Matillon, resignation will not shut anyone up, you know that."

The cold rushed up Martillon's back with the words, and he glanced at Elizabeth who was looking at him in a daze, and after a second of silence, he lowered his head and said,

"I know how to do it."

"That's good."

Ignoring the head of Martylon, Elizabeth walked to the door of the throne with a blank face, and through the door that was not heavy, she could easily hear the voices of the people outside.

She closed her eyes slightly, and in the darkness of the vision, Fisher's face was still as clear, but the clearer it was, the more obvious the fact that he was far away from herself.

I still let him go again, and didn't really catch him

Maybe it was because he told her that he really liked her and moved Elizabeth, because even if she was as paranoid as Elizabeth, in her heart, she actually expected Fisher to take the initiative to be with her, instead of using this forced method.

That's why when Fisher made the deal, she said yes, right?

It's not that she's too soft-hearted, it's that she's not dead set on Fisher.

But as soon as she let him go, Elizabeth regretted it.

The loneliness of not being around, the pain of not being able to see him, made her unbearable.

"Fisher"

Elizabeth closed her eyes, feeling the pain of not catching Fisher, but at the same time, she felt a very pleasant feeling from Pandora, her eyes,

"Heh, it turns out that I tried my best to pursue everything, but in the end I didn't get what I wanted the most, which is what you want to see?"

The sarcastic remark never met with a response from Pandora, and Elizabeth opened her eyes and pushed open the door without pause in the next second.

Facing the rising sun, countless sights, countless pious souls, and countless wills to cheer at her out of fear or worship were present in her present.

With a smile on her face, she held Godling's golden scepter and walked slowly to the front of the stage, her gentle appearance like an angel descended from the mother goddess and the most beautiful jewel in the world

"Your Majesty!"

"Her Majesty!"

"Your Majesty Elizabeth!!"

Countless shouts drowned out the music and salutes of the Golden Palace, and lifted the empress, who was as brilliant as gold and who had never been seen before or since, to the pinnacle of Nari.

Elizabeth smiled and waved her hand to everyone below, the New Party, the Griffin Party, the Pioneer Company, everything about Nari was at her feet at this moment

A new era has arrived.
