Iron King's Palace!

At this time, Philo had already sent someone to clean up this place in advance.

Staying in this hall, which was slightly dilapidated due to the war, Lin Yun sat on the Iron Throne with the support of everyone.

Song Yimo was given a seat aside.

Upon hearing of the assassination of the Iron King, a new Iron Queen quelled the cholera of the Fish-People and ascended to the throne.

The city's executives, treasurers, and commanders of the city guards came here one by one.

Either to meet or to understand the situation, but without exception all of them were blocked out by the Iron Legion.

Because Lin Yun currently has a more important guest.

Lin Yun: "General Barak, please take a seat." ”

As instructed, several soldiers moved their seats.

But Barak squeezed a few times, and his body couldn't sit down, so he gave up and said: "Dear Iron Queen, I am in armor and it is inconvenient to sit down, thank you for your kindness." ”

"And I am waiting for this trip to be called here by His Highness 'Emo', thank you for taking care of His Highness these days, Atlantis will remember your kindness, but the stakes are high, we need to bring His Highness Emo back to the kingdom immediately."

Hearing this, Song Yimo was embarrassed: "That... General Barak, thank you for your help this time, but I can't go back yet. ”

"Not going back?" Barak looked shocked, and then immediately bowed down and said: "Go back to Your Highness, don't joke with me, the kingdom has lost its royal family for decades, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt, you are a royal family, how can you be left behind!" ”

"This..."Song Yimo didn't know how to answer.

Looking at Lucy and the others on the side, they also showed shocked and pleading eyes.

And there was no way, Song Yimo could only ask Lin Yun with his eyes.

She understood that now the Naga army was at the gate of the city, and it would not please both sides to resist strongly, so she quickly changed the topic.

"Your Excellency Barak, EMO may be a little worried because he has been living abroad since he was a child, and he doesn't know the situation in your country, so you might as well tell us about the current situation of the kingdom first, so that EMO can be some preparations."

"That's right." Barak breathed a sigh of relief.

Or is the Iron Queen thoughtful, or someone else is the queen!

So, Barak said: "My kingdom is honored by the mermaid royal family, and it is rumored that they came from another world called 'Atlantis', and in order to escape the impending disaster, they migrated here with the 'magic circle'. ”

Hearing this, Lin Yun immediately came to his senses, and he couldn't help but have that doubt in his heart again.

Is the so-called merfolk the 'Atlantis' civilization that disappeared from the earth?

They did not perish because of the sinking of the land, but evolved the body of a mermaid adapted to survive underwater.

And then Barak's description is also very consistent with this characteristic.

Legend has it that the ancestors of the mermaid kingdom originally had a blue planet.

In order to rule a world 70% of the ocean, they abandoned their identity as terrestrial humans and used mysterious magic to turn their people into merfolk, shattering the continent and sinking their cities into the sea.

And this was the right choice their ancestors made, because soon after a 'great flood' swept the whole world.

However, although the fish people escaped this catastrophe, because the ancient plants that could secrete 'magic essence' were swallowed up and extinct by the flood, the magic power of the original world was drastically reduced.

The mermaid who has been transformed by magic cannot adapt to such an environment, so he can only find a new livable world with the 'magic circle' and 'passage'.

Finally locked this paleocontinent-like world called Erdogan.

But there is an inherent aboriginal in this world, and that is the Sea Clan!

Rather than relying on their strength to invade, the friendly merfolk chose to live in peace with these sea tribes.

Among them, Naga is one of the great sea tribes who took the initiative to attach themselves to the merfolk and became the founders of the ancient mermaid empire.

When the merfolk left Atlantis, they left behind a small group of people called the 'Watchmen' in order to prepare for their return home.

They live in Atlantis and monitor their hometown's environment, looking forward to the return of the magic.

During this period, the watchmen would send parts of their clan into 'Erdogan' at regular intervals.

When they report on their hometowns, they also bring back knowledge and things called 'technology' from their hometowns.

With this, the Mermaid Kingdom has not only possessed great magical power, but also mastered the technology to develop civilization.

Like what:

60 seconds is a minute! 60 minutes is an hour! 24 hours is a day!

The language called 'English' near their homeland, and the language called 'Chinese' in the great distant country were spread by them as the official language of Erdogan and influenced the world.

And as a watchman who brings back knowledge and technology, he is revered as a mermaid 'royalty'!

On the one hand, their contributions are outstanding, and on the other hand, only the homeland of Atlantis can give birth to pure-blooded 'Atlanteans', mermaids born in Erdogan, because of the difference in magic, the blood is not pure.

But then the conflict arises.

The old generation of watchmen wanted their children and grandchildren to be royal, and did not want to cede power to the new generation of watchmen.

The new generation of watchmen is tasked with leading their people to progress, so they need the blessing of the royal power to compete with the old watchmen.

And so the tragedy called the 'Blood Feast Coup' happened.

The old Warden killed the Warden who had returned from the new generation, and permanently destroyed the Demon Circle Passage that was large enough to cross the world, and ordered the destruction of all cross-border passage technology.

But as a result, they have lost the ability to acquire knowledge and civilization from their homeland, and their dominance is gone.

The Sea Clan who joined the Merfolk Kingdom rebelled one after another, and even killed the old Merfolk royal family.

Although the Naga preserved the last dignity of the kingdom with great force.

But without advanced knowledge and access, this kingdom is slowly decaying and crumbling in an irreversible situation.

The only thing that can stop this process is to find the 'royal family' who can reopen the passage, contact the watchers of Atlantis, obtain more advanced knowledge, and unite the sea tribes again!

Hearing the other party's story, Lin Yun and Song Yimo both understood.

It's no wonder that there is toothpaste, soap, printing, and paper, and the language is a variant of Chinese and English.

It turned out that there were countless time-traveler predecessors (watchmen) who took the initiative to turn this world into the shape of a blue star.

Unfortunately, this shape only lasted until modern times, as the passage was permanently closed hundreds of years ago.

And after telling all this, Barak came directly: "Your Highness, if I am not mistaken, you are not the orphan of the previous watchman, but the new 'watcher' from your hometown, right, after all, only the pearls and magic there can create such a brilliant deep blue orb." ”

Song Yimo was shocked that his identity as a traverser had been recognized!

Seeing her performance, Barak knew he had guessed correctly.

And after Lucy's confirmation, the magic array where several people came here was the lost cross-border channel technology.

To this end, Barak immediately pleaded: "Your Highness, if you can, can we talk privately?" ”
