The sound of horse hooves accompanied by the mighty running sound broke the tranquility of the port. Just by listening to the sound, you could tell that there were many people coming.
Soon, several luxurious carriages pulled by eight tall white horses appeared in everyone's sight. Following on both sides of the carriages were the royal honor guards wearing black velvet hats, bright red uniforms, and holding long guns. It was very impressive.
prestige.
The appearance of this procession provoked a murmur of cry, Here comes the king!
Uriente had already been prepared. Seeing the carriage getting closer and closer, he trotted to the carriage and shouted loudly: "Welcome to His Majesty the King."
As the groom rolled up the car curtain, a white-haired but vigorous elderly gentleman appeared in front of everyone. It was George VI, the current king of the Empire on which the sun never sets.
George VI slowly stepped out of the carriage, and the subjects on both sides bowed and said hello to him. He smiled and waved, looking like a gentleman, but there was an uncontrollable throbbing hidden in his blue-brown eyes.
As George VI stepped out of the carriage, a group of men and women dressed in luxurious and gorgeous clothes followed him. They were naturally members of the royal family.
After briefly greeting his subjects, George VI took a deep breath and said: "Uriante, is Edward back?"
"Yes, Your Majesty the King, the third prince is back."
Juriante said respectfully.
"My poor child, where is he? Why didn't I see him?"
King George VI looked around and frowned slightly.
"The third prince is still at sea..."
After speaking, Uriente raised his hand and pointed: "Look over there."
"Um?"
King George VI was surprised. He put on his reading glasses and looked from a distance. Sure enough, he saw a few people floating on the sea, but they were too far away to see clearly.
How did this man end up floating on the sea?
Why didn't Edward go ashore?
Just as he was doubting, a sudden change occurred. Along with the rolling waves, a huge and dark sea creature of unknown species jumped out of the sea, causing a panic.
Urient stood in front of George VI for the first time, and the royal guards also raised their weapons one after another, and they were all stunned and confused——
What is this, I have never seen it before.
"Father, Edward is back."
At the same time, a familiar and cheerful voice sounded in the air. George VI took a closer look and was shocked. Who was standing above this sea creature if it wasn't Edward?
"Edward, why are you standing on top of this monster? What happened?"
Seeing that his beloved son was not only fine but also very relaxed, George VI calmed down and asked.
"Father, please don't talk nonsense."
Edward immediately said: "This is not a monster, but a Poseidon!"
"Poseidon?"
Everyone was stunned after hearing the word Poseidon, obviously not understanding it very well.
"It's like this. The ship I was traveling on was hit by a tornado. After the ship capsized, I unfortunately ended up on a remote island. I managed to survive by relying on wild fruits and rain all day long.
During this period, I have been waiting hard, hoping that a ship will pass by and that I can come back... but I have never been able to wait.
Just when I was about to give up in despair, Poseidon appeared. He is the king of that sea area and has countless loyal servants. After hearing about my experience, he was very sympathetic and offered to help us get home.
With its help, we can return safely, otherwise, we don't know how long we will be stuck on that island."
Edward was not close to the port, but every word he said reached his ears very clearly and seemed effortless. This was amazing. Many people thought that the help of Poseidon was indispensable.
The most important thing is that Edward said it very easily, but it does not necessarily mean that it is the truth.
If it was really Poseidon who carried it back, then the question is, why did Poseidon help him come back?
Is Poseidon inherently kind, or is there something special about Edward that attracts Poseidon?
After all, ships have accidents every year, but this is the first time Poseidon appears...
There are also people who are hesitant about Edward's words. Is such an ugly thing worthy of the title of Poseidon?
I'm afraid I'm not exaggerating on purpose.
Just when everyone was thinking about their own thoughts, the Fish King under Edward's feet looked up to the sky and roared. As it roared, the monsters originally hidden in the sea jumped out of the sea one after another, and then screamed. The screams were intertwined and spread continuously.
Continuously.
Everyone on the shore widened their eyes. Hundreds of marine creatures jumped and rolled on the originally calm sea surface at the same time, which gave people a strong visual impact.
Moreover, they only appeared and made noise after Poseidon roared, which shows that they indeed respect Poseidon.
From this point of view, Poseidon is worthy of his name.
When King George VI saw this, he didn't think much about it. He bowed respectfully to the Fish King and said, "Thank God, thank Poseidon for sending my Edward back to me. We will always remember your kindness."
Whoosh!
All the royal guards bowed to the Fish King in unison.
The Fish King roared again and flew directly into the air, circling and circling, looking very happy. No matter how its body turned, Edward always stood firmly on its back, as if glued to it.
"call!"
After a few rounds, the Fish King's huge, twisting body flew towards the shore. Upon seeing this, the escorts who were originally standing on the beach retreated back, surrounding George VI.
However, the Fish King didn't have any ill intentions. After approaching the shore, he slowly dropped down, and after touching the ground, he flicked his tail, sending Edward steadily to the ground.
"Thank you, Poseidon."
Edward gently touched the Fish Emperor's cheek.
The Fish King gently rubbed the back of Edward's hand, then jumped back into the sea.
As Edward came ashore, the other monsters followed suit and sent the other surviving people ashore. They said goodbye to each other and returned to the sea.
Under the leadership of the Fish King, the group of demons all bid farewell to Edward and the others, then left the port without looking back and swam toward the depths of the sea.
No one spoke during the whole process, and everyone seemed to be watching a wonderful mime. Such a scene was unheard of and unseen. It was so magical.
Moreover, they vaguely noticed that Poseidon and his subordinates seemed to be human beings.
Hmm...foreign monsters can become spirits.
With such an appearance, no one on the scene doubted Edward's words. Hundreds of sea creatures with human nature were indeed messengers of God.
When they thought of this, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Edward. Before, they all thought that Edward had died in a shipwreck. Unexpectedly, it was a blessing in disguise that he got help from Poseidon.
Surviving the catastrophe and being blessed by Poseidon doesn't prove that Edward is the best candidate to be the next king?
Feng Yi, standing behind Edward, nodded slightly after taking in everyone's expressions. This was exactly the effect he wanted to achieve.
