Kai Ze didn't expect so much, but nodded. Mei La followed suit. He was also happy, so why should he object?
However, Mela thought more. For example, if she and Atlanna left the bottom of the sea, who would handle the affairs of the kingdom? What kind of bullshit aristocratic council? Thinking of this, Mela almost instinctively objected immediately.
, she has been unhappy with this so-called parliament for a long time.
She didn't like them before Aum took over the government. These people advocated the superiority of the republic every day... Haha, when Mela didn't know what they wanted to do? She knew it when she was eight years old. She didn't have a father or a mother.
As a child, she received a complete imperial education and was born with a sensitivity to power.
This is also the reason why Mela dares to seek the throne of the King of Atlantis, because she feels that she is the most suitable! Orm... is just a child with a twisted psychology. He may understand the importance of power, but he does not have the corresponding means and
shrewdness.
Arthur?
That is a wild child, not worth mentioning at all. No one in their right mind would entrust the position of the king to a sailor and lighthouse keeper.
So besides her, who else is qualified to be the King of Atlantis?
So this aristocratic council has been her enemy from that time on.
So she will never give them a chance to seize power. One of her and Atlanna must stay in Atlantis, or both of them must stay.
Therefore, Kai's so-called three-person trip is absolutely impossible to achieve.
It's just that Kai doesn't know it yet.
…
Kai spent three days in Cairo like this.
Cairo is still very lively. Since the victory in the last war, the whole of Egypt seems to have been injected with blood, and there are more foreigners.
Of course, amidst the excitement, there is always some weirdness.
For example, the locals all seemed to be possessed and preached the teachings of Apocalypse to others crazily, so forget it, at least Apocalypse did not plan to have any conflicts with other big countries.
But there's another thing that's even more serious.
That is war!
This time is different from before.
Almost everyone yearns for war.
Egypt is a poor and weak country. It is also the most populous country in the Middle East and is in a leading position in the Middle East in terms of economy and culture. In fact, compared with the world's economic level, Egypt, as an ancient civilization, has a relatively lagging economy.
The standard of living is low. As one of the birthplaces of the four major civilizations in the world, Egypt has a long history. It is located in northeastern Africa, a maritime shortcut between the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, and is also the border point between Asia and Africa. It has a superior geographical location.
The profound cultural heritage and superior geographical location allow Egypt to play the role of "Big Brother" in the Middle East, but its international status has always been relatively weak. It is not difficult to see that the reason is that Egypt has major problems at the leadership level.
.
During the Middle East war, the little overlord backed by the United States started many wars in Arab countries. At that time, Egypt also received military and economic support from the Soviet Union, and had a solid foundation of combat power in the Middle East. Under the instigation of the United States, Egypt
The Little Overlord took the lead and launched many wars in the Middle East, plunging Arab countries into the quagmire of war.
Egypt has always played the role of a great power in the Middle East, restricting the reactionaries from starting wars. However, this time it encountered a powerful attack by the bullies, which made the already poor domestic environment more turbulent. The safety of residents was not guaranteed, and the problem of food and clothing was serious.
, leaving Egypt shrouded in an atmosphere of panic.
What made Egypt even more devastated was that one of the founding fathers, Nasser and the legendary president Sadat, died of illness and the other was directly assassinated.
As a result, Egypt lacked strong leadership from then on, and the successors did not have the prestige and ability of the first two.
This makes the country even more depressed.
A poor and weak person actually cherishes a victory even more.
And Apocalypse brought this time, and more importantly, he not only brought victory, but also brought more practical benefits!
This made many young people discover that their enemies were not so invincible. So they decisively chose to support the war. They wanted more benefits and more victories! They had been suppressed for too long! They needed more fronts.
Emotions to face those humiliations of the past!
Of course, this is also due to the effect of religious brainwashing.
When Tianqi looks at the history of various countries, he always finds a problem. That is, when a country is poor and weak, the students are the first to wake up!
Likewise, these students are also the most sincere and enthusiastic group!
They are young, educated, highly malleable, and at the same time have the purest patriotic sentiments.
So Apocalypse has long wanted to win them over.
Therefore, after Tianqi has resources in his hands, the first to enjoy the benefits are not other classes or groups, but students in the entire country!
Tianqi first gave the green light to education funding, and at the same time provided subsidies to all students, exempted college tuition, and even provided more jobs for graduates.
At the same time, you must also face up to a problem, that is, students are also the group most easily deceived. They are too young and too enthusiastic.
Tianqi has no so-called family sentiments towards this country, so he can only sadly use and bewitch these poor students.
As a result, many student movements were surging in prosperous Cairo.
Many students raised extreme slogans and began to call on more people to participate in this war.
In fact, the threat from the Little Overlords is indeed real, and they have already assembled troops in the south!
So many passionate young people took to the streets to support the government while calling on more people to go to the battlefield.
Suddenly, a lot of people actually started donating money and materials!
Some schools even closed classes directly and went to the government to petition!
They are going to the battlefield!
How does Apocalypse deal with it?
While they advocated for the schools to return to normal, they did not refuse those students to join the army.
You must know that these young people are much better than those old people who work in the government. They are young and passionate, generally knowledgeable and educated, learn everything quickly, and have strong discipline.
These are the best soldiers.
Apocalypse wants both face and face!
For a while, you will find that the whole of Cairo has fallen into a strange atmosphere.
"Dear...are you really not going to do anything?" Although Mela is green tea, it does not mean that her heart is black. Green tea is a means, and she is still kind...well, limited kindness, she is definitely not
Atlanna's kind of white-left Madonna.
But she couldn't bear to see these ignorant young people rushing to the battlefield foolishly.
That's the Dark Trident.
It is impossible to fight against such an artifact simply by relying on numbers.
Do you know what an artifact is?
Seriously speaking, the status of the Dark Trident is much higher than Atlanna's Golden Trident.
Although the Golden Trident is an artifact given to the royal family of Atlantis by the gods, the Dark Trident is originally the possession of the gods!
Even though there is not much difference in power between the two, they are different in person and meaning.
Kai smiled bitterly.
"What can I do? Tell them that they are being used? Tell them that they will be doomed if they go there? Tell them that you should not serve the country?"
Although he knew that God had used methods, Kai Kai could not make any objection to it.
In fact, what these young people love deeply is not Apocalypse, and what they support is not Apocalypse, but the land they love deeply. They may be deceived, but isn't the threat of the Little Overlord real?
If you put yourself in his shoes, it's impossible for Kai to remain indifferent.
Does it mean that if the enemy is strong, he will no longer be patriotic?
Could it be that the ruling class is such a bastard that he can just sit back and watch the great country being invaded by foreign enemies?
No no no!
These are not reasons.
How many bald bastards were there back then? Aren’t there countless passionate young people who took to the battlefield, faced those seemingly invincible enemies, and shed their blood with their heads. We must defeat the bald bastards, and even more so those devils who trample the mountains and rivers!
There is absolutely no miscalculation in sacrificing one's life for one's country.
Does Kate have any position to stop it?
"But they are irrational!" Mela was very dissatisfied with Kai's inaction.
"Reason?" Kai looked at Meila in surprise. Sure enough, politicians and the people can never think on the same channel. "At this time, what is the use of reason? Can reason stop the bully, or can reason make the country?
Not infringed? Meila, you have to understand that we are not an underwater kingdom. You rely on blood, so it is naturally impossible for you to understand our land country. For us, when our country is violated, what we have to do is never to be rational, because
There is not much we can do, all we can do is this passion!"
Mela still couldn't understand this statement.
After all, Mela was never a member of the public, she stood above the public.
She doesn't understand the country either.
In her opinion, the country... is their family's property. Whether they have more or less things in their own family is actually not an important thing, it is only related to face.
In her opinion, the entire Kingdom of Zebel exists because of her family, not because of this country.
This cause and effect is very important.
After all, although Atlantis was advanced, in terms of social level, it was still stuck in the feudal era.
Mela felt sorry for these young people because she was kind-hearted.
At the same time, she may also understand the passion of these people.
"In short, respect their choice. If you really want to change everything, the best way is to get the Dark Trident back."
…
The situation became tense again.
As the Little Overlord increased his troops, all parties became tense.
But within the Little Overlord, there were actually problems.
In one of the Overlord's military bases, Benjamin, the holder of the Dark Trident, was constantly washing his face with ice water to wake himself up.
Naturally, the Little Overlord must treat such an important artifact as the Dark Trident with the most rigorous attitude. The holder must be a staunch nationalist and have a pure bloodline, without any possibility of rebellion! In fact, his family must be tight-knit.
Lean tightly on the little bully and move your whole body!
So after various screenings, Benjamin was selected.
I won’t mention Benjamin’s last name, but in short, they are the most important family in Little Overlord!
Benjamin was born in Tel Aviv on October 21, 1969. His grandfather and uncle were both legendary heroes of the Little Overlords. The two brothers were members of the reconnaissance battalion, an elite special forces unit known as the "Wild Boys."
He once participated in the founding of the People's Republic of China and all subsequent wars!
Their family itself is also a representative of the military and political family. He himself and his brother have even participated in the war! The brother is a Mossad elite, has participated in the fight against terrorists, rescued hostages, and won the title of national hero of the Little Overlord.
His brother is a radiologist and author.
He himself studied abroad in the United States and graduated from the MIT Sloan School of Management with a master's degree in management. He then studied political science at Harvard University and MIT and returned after graduation.
Many elders of his family hold important positions in the Likud Party.
It can be said that the root is red and the sprout is upright.
Originally, if we were serious, he himself was not the most suitable candidate for the Dark Trident, his brother was.
Unfortunately, his brother died in the battle at the prison.
He could only push on.
It can be said that he has shouldered the expectations of the country and the entire family!
Of course, this wasn't the reason why he was so nervous.
What really made him nervous was...the endless illusions!
The real Dark Trident is actually broken into two pieces (I wrote it wrong before, it was written into three pieces). If the two pieces are held separately, it is actually an ordinary melee weapon, and there is nothing strange about it.
But if both sections are held by one person, the artifact will regain its original power.
The holder will become infinitely stronger, and his body will be tougher than steel. He can even use various abilities.
But as time goes by, illusions will appear.
In the illusion, an ancient king wearing pitch black and broken armor would bring endless undead warriors like the ghosts of grievances to tell him ancient stories.
But when he releases the artifact, these things will disappear.
He couldn't remember the content of those stories, he only knew that he had to fulfill the ancient king's order!
The reason in his heart kept urging Benjamin to put down the artifact and tell the truth to others. At the same time, he should never pick up the artifact again. But the fact is that he did not tell anyone about this by some strange coincidence.
There is something wrong with his mind.
He instinctively wanted to stay away from the Dark Trident.
But the body and will did not obey orders.
At the same time, I still had a strong curiosity in my heart about what the king wanted to do.
He knew that if he really remembered the king's order, he would never be able to put down the Dark Trident!
But he couldn't help it.
It's clear that reason says no, but I just can't hold back my inner impulse.
He picked up the Dark Trident again.
"Destroy Atlantis! Kill all the traitors! This is the king's punishment! All rebels should be executed!"
This time he heard the king's order again, and at the same time endless sadness and anger filled Benjamin's mind!
"Yes...the evil Atlantis should not exist! Such evil things should not exist in this world! I want to kill them all!"
Benjamin held the Trident of Darkness and stood in front of the mirror, his eyes constantly lighting up with green light, and some ominous black energy coiled around him.
