Chapter 333 This name sounds like someone from the same hometown
The distant blue planet.
The entire planet's landscape underwent a dramatic and silent transformation thanks to the opportunistic actions of certain individuals.
America, Japan, honey badger, and Er Mao (a nickname for a country with beautiful scenery),
These few swindlers are acquiring evolution points at an astonishing rate, and the physical condition and strength of the people have improved rapidly. Some people have regained their confidence.
only......
This sudden power brought with it an even wilder aura.
Especially in the United States, the atmosphere of freedom is stronger than ever before.
Zero-dollar purchases have evolved from a niche performance art into a mass movement and a fixed tax item.
As long as you steal enough, report it on time, and pay the "spoils tax" in full, you're still a good kid.
In the land of cherry blossoms, a completely upgraded "human-ramming clan" has emerged.
On the streets and on trams, you can see ruthless people speeding along and sending pedestrians flying dozens of meters. Those who get hit are just as tough, usually rolling a few times before getting up, dusting themselves off, and walking away. Occasionally, they'll run into a tough nut to crack and retaliate, escalating the violence.
The Russian Bear Kingdom and the Hanscat Kingdom sided with the Dragon Kingdom, while the French Chicken Kingdom and the Sunset Kingdom began to secretly flirt with each other, and cultural relics lost overseas and various pieces of evidence of crimes were sent on their way.
However, beneath the seemingly stable surface, undercurrents have not ceased.
Honey Badger remains the most stubborn troublemaker, taking advantage of the improved physical condition of the nation to carry out increasingly rampant assassinations and infiltrations.
Several neighboring countries, unable to bear the harassment any longer, proactively requested that China send peacekeeping personnel to the country to provide armed protection.
For a time, the situation reached a stalemate.
The wavering individuals were also waiting for an opportunity—
An opportunity is on the horizon.
......
【The Ocean Era】
After Arthur calmly uttered that word, even Aurora thought she had misheard.
"But Father, this...this is our only hope!"
"No, this is not the only hope."
Arthur had given it considerable thought and refused firmly: "The Nightmare Crystal can suppress it temporarily, can't it?"
He turned to anything,
It is both a way of seeking confirmation and an announcement of one's decision.
"But that's just a stopgap measure!"
Fakyu stepped forward, his tone urgent, "Your Majesty! Isn't the existence of national treasures precisely to protect the bloodline of the kingdom?"
Arthur weakly raised his hand to stop the others from trying to persuade him:
"It is not a tool...it is a destination."
The Heart of the Ocean belongs to the first generation of mermaids, their ancestors—
Du Jingfeng.
"He possessed the ability to hear the voices of the sea creatures and the tides. In order to free the first Siren Queen, as well as his descendants and kin, from Nyarlathotep's control, he transformed into the mist that shrouded this sea. And this 'Heart of the Ocean' is the only trace he left behind."
This is a tombstone.
Arthur has lived long enough; he has already chosen Riseben as his successor. The future of the Blue Kingdom should be handed over to the younger generation.
Using the remains of one's ancestors to prolong one's own life?
He can't.
"Can......"
Arthur raised his hand, stopping Riseben from saying anything more, his eyes filled with tenderness and remorse.
"This is the resting place of our ancestors, a symbol of the spirit of the Deep Blue Kingdom, not a tool to prolong my life alone."
As expected of a king, his awareness is truly high.
The name Du Jingfeng sounds... like someone from the same hometown, but since it belongs to the large family drama of the Deep Blue Kingdom, Ren Yi didn't interrupt.
Since the person in question is not cooperating, the surgery will be temporarily suspended.
but......
Renyi examined the "Heart of the Ocean" in his hand more carefully.
It looks so beautiful; it turns out to be a relic. But since the words of returning it to its rightful owner have already been spoken, and the king doesn't intend to use it, there's no excuse left.
Then... what will he give back to Granny Li?
Let's check on how things are going with [Deep Sea Shadow] first.
He thought to himself,
While Risbane and the others were still immersed in the tragic atmosphere, they secretly watched the 'surveillance footage'.
His mental energy flowed like mercury, connecting with the [Deep Sea Shadow] far away in the silent waterway.
Similar to changing channels on a television.
After a brief blur and distortion, a clear split screen appeared.
From an overhead perspective.
The familiar black hull rested quietly at the edge of the purple seaweed forest, like a lurking behemoth... though not like a deep-sea fish.
The "view" zooms in.
Between the pool and the observation cabin on the deck.
Sita, who remained behind, was sitting there, diligently fulfilling his duties as a zookeeper.
She grabbed a crab leg with its shell still attached and threw it into the slowly opening and closing mouth on the wall of the observation cabin without even looking at it.
That's the entrance to the [Ruminant Digestion Module].
"Crack...creak...creak..."
The sound of chewing could be heard constantly coming from his mouth.
"Eat, eat it all, no picky eating allowed."
As Sita fed them, he muttered to himself with a blank expression.
"I'm not as easy to talk to as the boss. You guys... don't be ungrateful."
In the swimming pool,
Those two swift, crimson-scaled, wave-riding seahorses that had been recruited—
Little Red and Little Orange.
It was happily rubbing its head against Sido's arm, making a "purring" sound like a puppy whining.
Sita then picked up the pieces of meat and threw them into their mouths.
Sita then picked up the pieces of meat and threw them into their mouths.
"You two are the same; just eating vegetables won't do. You might have to pull boats in the future."
Xiao Hong and Xiao Cheng pretended to understand and snorted in unison.
Renyi: "Ha..."
The rest of the lab members immediately stared at the guy who had suddenly burst out laughing at thin air.
"...It's alright...you can continue to grieve."
He calmly raised his face on the floor.
He shifted his gaze from the ship and surveyed the surroundings; the purple kelp forest swayed as always.
everything is normal.
and many more......
His gaze suddenly fixed on the building that looked like an overturned, broken pot not far away.
【"Die, Humans and Mermaids" - Potions and Groceries】
The familiar sign still hangs there, but... there's yet another patch on it.
The crooked and messy handwriting fully expresses the writer's anger and sloppiness.
No sea lions or other animals allowed.
Any: "..."
What's going on?!
Almost at the same moment I could clearly see that line of text
"Bang!!!"
With a loud crash, the already dilapidated door of the grocery store was kicked away from the inside by a tremendous force.
A sobbing figure, filled with overwhelming resentment, burst out from within.
Grandma Li's black robe was riddled with holes, her hair bun was half-collapsed, and a few strands of charred black hair stubbornly drifted with the current.
She wasn't carrying a bone cane or smoking a pipe.
Those amber-colored vertical pupils seemed to pierce through the barriers of space, accurately locking onto any direction using [Deep Sea Shadow].
"Damn two-legged beasts!!!"
A sharp screech startled a group of unidentified small fish nearby, causing them to collectively turn belly up.
"I caught you!!"
"You're using me as a lightning rod... and you dare to spy on my shop?!"
"Do you really think I'm made of clay?!"
Granny Li cursed and swore, and the entire fish transformed into a black lightning bolt, trailing a long purple smoke tail, charging menacingly towards the direction of [Deep Sea Shadow].
"You two are the same; just eating vegetables won't do. You might have to pull boats in the future."
Xiao Hong and Xiao Cheng pretended to understand and snorted in unison.
