Louis XXXIX began to take off his white robe and hat. His Majesty the Emperor did not explain this, and Luo Qiu did not ask.
It seemed that both parties knew it well, but both parties had a tacit understanding and did not reveal it.
It’s just that it’s quiet on the road, and you always need to find some dispensable topics to embellish. People are not alone. This is the deep sea, an underwater world that far exceeds human imagination. The sun cannot reach here, so darkness breeds and loneliness is everywhere.
.
"Mr. Luo, do you know why the Undersea City and the Kraken Tribe split up in the first place?" His Majesty the Emperor suddenly turned around and asked.
Luo Qiu said casually: "It is said that the ancestors of the Kraken clan had differences of opinion with the ancestors of the Undersea City. In order to gain the power to live freely in the deep sea, the ancestors of the Kraken clan degenerated into the appearance of monsters.
"
"You must have heard this from Jin Kailun," His Majesty the Emperor said with a smile.
Boss Luo said: "I saw it in the book, and there are also explanations on some other popular science channels."
"That is something that the people of the Undersea City can see." His Majesty the Emperor said calmly: "Including Jin Kailun... In fact, his research results are good, but he was wrong from the beginning."
Luo Qiu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, are you going to tell me the truth?"
"Remember the relief painting on the wall that you saw in the library last time?" the emperor said abruptly.
Luo Qiu nodded, "It seems to be a war."
Louis Thirty-Nine said: "In fact, most of the history studied by Jin Kailun is consistent. The Lemuria era was indeed caused by the wrong guidance of the evolutionary direction of magic energy, and then a devastating disaster occurred. Lemuria at that time
The Leah people had to start the sea-sinking plan...but in fact, the original sea-sinking plan was not limited to the Undersea City."
Boss Luo listened with interest. He liked the feeling of the historical truth being revealed bit by bit.
"We have built a total of ten undersea cities." Louis XXXIX said slowly: "The ten undersea cities accommodate all the people who survived the great disaster. And these ten undersea cities are all in Limoli.
Under the leadership of the last two princes of the Asian Age...you know the two statues at the entrance to the Undersea City, right?"
"They are the last two princes?"
"Yes." Louis XXXIX nodded: "This is not recorded in any documents. Only we, as their descendants, know about this matter. In fact, no one except us
Unexpectedly, the ancestors of the Undersea City and the Siren Clan are actually two brothers."
"After all, the appearance is too different." Boss Luo shook his head... That is already the difference between humans and animals.
"My ancestor, Louis I, and the ancestor of the Kraken clan [Cassidy], as the last surviving prince of the Lemurian Empire, have always been committed to restoring the former civilization." Louis XXXIX's voice gradually became lower.
, "There were indeed differences between them, but it was not over the decision to live in the deep sea or return to land... but because of their attitude towards a certain force."
"What are you attacking on the relief in the library?"
"Why don't you guess what this is?" His Majesty the Emperor showed a sly look at this time. "What kind of power has caused the differences between the two princes and even accumulated hatred for so many generations."
"It seems to be related to the black ball that was selected in the [match] that day." Boss Luo Two smiled and said: "After all, there is a similar black ball on the relief... It is not difficult to associate it."
"We call it the [Eye of the Abyss]. It can swallow all the negative emotions of living creatures and use it as food to strengthen itself, and it cannot be eliminated by any means we know." Louis XXXIX laughed at himself.
: "In fact, the Lemurian civilization, which claims to have reached the end of civilization, actually does not understand anything. There were things in the world that were unknown to the Lemurian civilization... and it,
Hidden in the deep sea.”
"Is the Undersea City a party that compromises with this kind of power?" Luo Qiu thought for a while and asked.
Louis Thirty-Nine said: "Do you think it's strange? The prosperous and peaceful Undersea City is the party that compromises. On the contrary, the ferocious Kraken Clan is the party that resists."
Boss Luo was noncommittal.
His Majesty the Emperor breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The [Eye of the Abyss] is the food of that thing. Every once in a while, the Undersea City needs to provide enough [Eye of the Abyss] to survive under its control.
Come down. You said that twenty black balls can be exchanged for new technology... Unfortunately, each [Eye of the Abyss] requires a lot of wars and multiple [Fei Tuo Competitions] to condense.
The offering is just barely enough... twenty, I really can't do anything."
Luo Qiu said nothing.
Since the price was paid by the altar, it meant that Louis XXXIX at that time must have had enough, and it was something that could be given.
"Your Majesty, my conditions are still the same." Luo Qiu shook his head: "However, I am afraid that in this explanation, you can only cross out one of these conditions."
"I know." His Majesty the Emperor waved his hand and said: "I just want to find someone to talk to... People from Undersea City can't. Raiaz can, but not now. You are different, you don't belong to Undersea City, you
It has nothing to do with us, and it doesn’t matter if you know it... What’s important is that I don’t think you’re someone who likes to spread other people’s secrets everywhere.”
"Since the Undersea City chose to compromise, and the Kraken clan chose to resist..." Boss Luo asked curiously: "Judging from how afraid you are of [it], why didn't [it] wipe out the Kraken clan?
.”
"A one-time disaster can indeed harvest a huge amount of [Eye of the Abyss]. The nine undersea cities that were once destroyed and disappeared were because of this. But later it was discovered that the last undersea city under caution had already contained all the food...
...It began to meditate, and then the idea of keeping it in captivity was born... However, an underwater city alone is not enough to support [it]." His Majesty the Emperor said expressionlessly: "I said, [The Eye of the Abyss] is
Something that eats up all negative emotions and grows stronger... Where can it be easier for negative emotions to come from?”
"war."
"[It] is raising the Undersea City." A trace of self-mockery flashed in Louis XXXIX's eyes, "And I am raising the Kraken Tribe...activities like the [Fei Tuo Competition] cannot be held too much.
Otherwise, the condition of the people in Undersea City will be difficult to control. But the Kraken clan is different. They have a very strong reproductive capacity, and their population far exceeds that of Undersea City. They are inexhaustible. If we kill a batch this year, we will soon replenish them next year.
A batch, a steady stream."
Boss Luo said: "But everything I saw in the Undersea City was based on magic technology, and I didn't see any sign of any other external force intervening. You said... [it] is supporting the Undersea City?"
Louis XXXIX suddenly stood still at this moment, and then slowly turned around.
At this time, His Majesty the Emperor appeared before Luo Qiu's eyes. He was not the handsome person that the people of Undersea City knew him to be... He was extremely ugly, and his face kept twisting and then forming new shapes, like some kind of insect.
"I have already said that Jin Kailun's research direction was wrong from the beginning... Do you understand now?"
Luo Qiu opened his mouth, then suddenly realized, "It turns out that you are the fallen sea monsters."
…
The emperor seemed to dislike the original appearance.
He just kept that ugly look for a moment, and then returned to his previous appearance.
"Actually, this is what Lemurians look like." His Majesty the Emperor said with a wry smile at this time: "In other words, it is the appearance of mutations that occurred after the bodies of Lemurians were integrated with magic energy... This
This kind of evolution has given us a more powerful ability to use magic energy, but at the same time it has turned us into monsters and deprived us of our ability to survive under the sun. Another ancestor of Undersea City, Cassidy believes
, this is the punishment for the Lemurians. We should remember our mistakes and should not succumb to [its] rule in order to restore the false past... Even if it is imprisoned in the deep sea in an ugly appearance,
We cannot lose our dignity as Lemurians. There is [its] curse in each of us. Once we leave [its] control, ugliness and mutation will appear again. Of course, if there is excessive anger, cruelty
If there are too many negative emotions, it will easily expose our true colors."
"So, rather than saying that the [Feituo Competition] is held to collect the [Eye of the Abyss], it is better to say that it is to clean up the negative emotions of the people of Undersea City on a regular basis to prevent their true colors from being exposed." Luo Qiu thought about it.
I thought: "How long do you think this kind of thing can last?"
"At least so far, there haven't been many changes." His Majesty the Emperor said calmly: "Undersea City can continue to be like this."
"If that's the case, then why do you hope to obtain the technology of a giant civilization?"
"I am already the last generation." His Majesty the Emperor looked at Luo Qiu and said softly: "When it comes to me, I can no longer find a qualified successor... By the way, you know, in front of [it], I, this
What is the actual identity of the Emperor of Undersea City?"
Boss Luo shook his head.
"A slave, a slave as a shepherd." His Majesty the Emperor said quietly: "I think the compromise made by the ancestor was wrong, and the idea of Cassidy, the other ancestor, is correct."
Luo Qiu thought for a while and said: "You hope to be able to resist [it], but at the same time you are afraid of failure... You hope that Rayaz will replace you after your failure and continue to be this herding slave... Will you use [Hai]
The identity of the demon clan, and launch a final challenge to [it]?"
"I will die in this deep sea." His Majesty the Emperor pointed to the area in front of him and whispered: "Just like this land of death."
…
This is a magical [lake] in the deep sea...a lake formed due to the difference in salinity.
This saltwater lake located deep in the seabed has a dividing line that can be discerned with the naked eye, just like the density difference caused by different temperatures to form an underwater waterfall. A large number of creatures live on this dividing line...most of them are shellfish.
Densely and neatly arranged.
At the edge of the dividing line, there are more corpses of deep-sea creatures... They have not decayed, and the ultra-high salinity maintains their former appearance. This is the most spectacular museum at the bottom of the deep sea.
"Why did you bring me here?"
Louis XXXIX smiled and said: "First of all, I think this place is really beautiful. [Lake] in the deep sea is not common. Secondly, I always feel that it is quiet enough here...Death is right in front of you, tentacles
It’s within reach. There aren’t many wonders under the sea, but here’s one. It would be a pity to miss it.”
While the emperor was speaking, a deep-sea moray eel suddenly dived into the salt lake to look for food, but it soon swam out. After several dives and resurfaces, the moray eel was already poisoned.
It needs to get rid of this salt brine to have a chance of survival.
As a result, its body began to struggle in the salt brine and sea water, bending, rolling, sinking, and trying its best to float up, and so on several times... Finally, the moray eel successfully escaped from the salt brine.
"Good luck." His Majesty the Emperor showed a smile.
Behind this smile, there are countless corpses of undecomposable sea creatures floating to the edge.
"The last reason is." The emperor looked at Luo Qiu again and said calmly: "[It] is under this [lake]."
"Have you decided?"
"Actually, there is no decision or not." His Majesty the Emperor smiled casually: "This has actually been my mission since I was born. I just don't understand why compared to the White Tower, compared to the [Eye of the Abyss]
]...Compared to [Holy Armor], this last condition seems so insignificant?"
Boss Luo didn't say anything. At this time, he was using the identity of the store manager, and his communication with customers could only stop here... In fact, it had gone beyond a lot. If it were the previous one, he would not have reached this point.
"Actually, has your Majesty ever thought that maybe you can get more from me, for example... the power to fight or even destroy [it]?"
His Majesty the Emperor listened quietly, and then asked softly, "Is a whole underwater city enough?"
Luo Qiu shook his head.
His Majesty the Emperor seemed to have known about it for a long time, so he smiled and said, "Then why should I think about this matter?"
"I see."
The [Lake] in the deep sea suddenly dimmed, but soon, there was another glimmer of light... that was the light that belonged to the contract.
…
…
The extremely complex cave in the mine.
The Kraken clan on Prince Pasha's side and the Undersea City envoy on Mrs. Kaia's side were currently hiding behind two huge and tilted pillars.
They had all seen clearly the appearance of the terrifying beast.
It can spit out terrifying physalis, has tentacles that seem to have infinite power, a huge exposed eye, and mouthparts that can easily bite anything.
"This is probably the biggest squid I have ever seen in my life." Professor Jin Kailun, who was hiding aside, shook his head and said, "I never want to eat food like squid in my life."
Mrs. Kaia didn't speak, and neither did the underwater city warrior, but they obviously agreed with the professor's words.
At this time, the prince of the Kraken clan who was hiding on the opposite side suddenly said loudly: "Everyone in the Undersea City opposite, I heard that your third legion is outside? As the prince of the Kraken clan, I formally request the seabed
The city’s political asylum!”
When Professor Jin Kailun heard this, he was stunned and opened his mouth. It was not because of the prince's loud shouting at this time, nor because of his fear of death.
And just because the word political asylum from God can be used in this way?
