Chapter 50 The Obedient Princess (Part 2)
"Ahem, I know you believe me, but the problem is that we must plan more thoroughly. If it is just a misunderstanding or the depravity of the guard himself, it is naturally the best. If it is a big conspiracy, it will be very dangerous. You can't tell your Majesty this matter first. After all, the Renault family is the third largest family of the Mermaid Royal Family and has the military power of the City Guards. Who knows how many confidants there are?
”
"You can do whatever you say!" Clara said firmly.
Caesar:….
I had thought of a lot of words, but I couldn't use any of them. With Clara's cooperation, things became much easier. It was rare that Clara was so obedient. Suddenly the whole situation became interesting and full of exciting experiences.
In the few days before the banquet, Kao and the others were also busy. Some Sheobei tribes near the Mermaid King City were gathering. Of course, these were all direct-line from Kao, and some adventurers with good relationships with them also accepted this task, including Juli and others.
Today is the festival day of the mermaid clan, and the birthday of the mermaid queen Christina. Almost every mermaid citizen is very satisfied with Queen Christina. It is really difficult to find such a queen. Needless to say, the queen's demeanor and behavior are even more commendable. She has participated in the Divine Moon War. As a powerful magician, it is said that the queen's magical strength is the real sea clan number one and has reached the realm of a human magician.
No matter what, Queen Christina is very popular. Her birthday is naturally celebrated nationwide. The entire Mermaid Sea is enjoying the festive atmosphere. Although it cannot be said to be an uncontrollable carnival, you can still see the festive atmosphere everywhere. At this time, the Mermaid Palace is full of guests.
Because it was the Queen's birthday, most of the people who came here were VIPs in the Mermaid Sea Territory. Originally, the Queen only wanted to have a simple and warm family birthday with Clara and her husband.
But Arles attaches more importance to his wife's birthday than his own. He has deep love for this partner who died with him, not to mention that he gave birth to Maya's most beautiful daughter, the gift of the sea god, his precious princess Clara.
Nowadays, Arles really wants nothing, so such a celebration is naturally grand.
Most of the city guards were given vacations, and of course even the soldiers stationed at the post received fine wine and food. The entire royal city was in a grand and festive celebration.
Especially in Neicheng, the streets and alleys are full of joy, the sea tribes wear their best clothes, and the bands are constantly playing, while the bards are vividly praising the love stories of their kings and queens, as well as their heroic achievements.
Everything is so beautiful.
"Come on, brothers, drink it with great pleasure. Cheers to our king and queen!"
"Drink less, there are fewer guards in the ground today, so everyone should be more alert."
"Tsk, you are too sensitive, now is a peaceful time. Besides, who dares to touch the bad temper of our mermaid tribe? Don't be surprised or something. Drink it, it's rare to have such a chance!"
"That's right. Come and have a drink for everyone."
There were groups of soldiers in groups of three or five, but there were always a few people in each group who incited the noise. In such an atmosphere, all the soldiers quickly drank happily.
At the same time, six corners of the inner city of Mermaid Royal City were also busy, but the atmosphere was a bit weird. These six places were very symmetrical to form a standard hexagram. Each hexagram landed in a big house.
The outside of the house is also full of joy, but the inside shows strange busyness, faintly exuding murderous aura and death aura, but the noise outside covers up this phenomenon that is usually easily discovered.
In addition, the water magic performed for festive purposes fills the sky above the royal city, and a large number of scattered water elements also cover up the smell of other elements.
There is a very huge altar in the house, and several people covered in black robes keep commanding the servants to work hard. Except for these strange black robes, the others are dressed normally. But their eyes are dull.
Although the movements are very fast, the movements are very stiff.
A very large and complex formation has been drawn, and it is naturally blood.
The blood was not melted by the sea water, but was engraved on the ground with a charming light. In a trance, the blood seemed to be still flowing. There were many stations around the formation. After the busyness was over, the servants stood at fixed points and remained motionless, with their eyes wide open but not energetic at all. However, in the center of the altar, there was a naked mermaid girl. The girl's eyes were full of fear. She wanted to ask for help but couldn't make a sound. She wanted to struggle but was futile. The invisible pressure made her able to lie honestly on the altar, as if there was something thorny and furious about stroking her pure body. That kind of fear would only make all this smoother.
Several men in black robe didn't say anything. They watched the formation gradually complete, and all concentrated around the altar. They folded their hands and lowered their heads. A low but non-life voice floated in the room. The surrounding elements left in disgust. A faint black mist rose from the altar. The girl on the altar struggled in pain. Blood scattered on her white and tender body, and then burst into blood mist. These blood mists were quickly absorbed by the flowing altar. The silent shout seemed to make the black mist very excited. The girl's life was passing rapidly and soon turned into a pure specimen skeleton. Even the bones turned black, and the servants standing around the formation could not escape this end. All of them turned into skeletons, but unlike the girls on the altar, they lost their lives and made them unable to be controlled. After absorbing their vitality, the power from the altar was spreading the power of curses to the undead. The skeleton's body was constantly growing bigger, and the darkness of the body was exuding strange light, and the originally empty eye sockets turned blood red, and the flashing light contained endless desire for killing and hatred.
At this time, the black-robed mages raised their heads. It was obvious that they were very satisfied with all this. The sacrifices provided by the other party were even better than they thought. It seemed that they had invested a lot of money, which was what they wanted.
The problem is not here. I thought I would see a skeleton or half-skeleton face under the black robe, but under the black robe were handsome and sunny smiles.
The same memorial was also staged in five other places. The little bit of death energy displayed by the six magic circles on the edge of the royal city did not attract much attention. Moreover, these people were prepared for it. Some water magicians outside were creating water elements to form the simplest and most effective cover-up.
The palace was the real lively place at this time. The nobles, families, and children of wealthy businessmen from the Mermaid Sea all followed their parents to the palace. If it was the king's birthday, it was another matter. The main topic was that the country and talents were also there, but it was the queen's banquet, which was a different meaning. To put it bluntly, it was the best time to enter into a marriage. You can make a request at the banquet. Of course, the two sides could also agree to ask His Majesty the Queen to be the witness. It is also a great honor to be blessed by the Queen of Mermaid.
Of course, Princess Clara is naturally the focus. The daughter is the real goal of her mother's birthday. Princess Clara is the goddess in the minds of countless young mermaids. Her beauty makes people miss it for a long time. Moreover, His Majesty Ales only has such a daughter. Whoever marrys Princess Clara is equivalent to becoming the king of the mermaid royal family. What a great temptation. The throne of the mermaid tribe is inherited, but unlike some races selected based on the strongest. In some ways, the habits and traditions of the mermaid tribe are closer to humans.
Caesar looked at a group of handsome men and beautiful women and had to admit that he was a handsome guy in ordinary places. At least he was worthy of the audience and would not scare the children. However, these mermaids looked so handsome, while the women were dazzlingly beautiful. Anyone who stood here would feel a little awkward. Fortunately, Caesar and Cao never cared about this, but in fact they were just as old as they were.
Men's strength!
This is the motto of Kao!
His father told him that as long as he could truly understand the Vacuum Axe of Garnaro, countless sea beauties would pursue him, and classmates Kao had been working tirelessly for this plan.
After all, the mermaid royal family is a royal family. Those mermaid ladies and His Highnesses are always a little narcissistic and reserved, and will not take the initiative to greet other races present. Moreover, the men and women are in a circle, pointing at the surroundings while chatting.
"Have you noticed it? There is such a big strong man outside the door. He looks so stupid and doesn't know what race it is."
"Hehe, I saw that a typical simple mind and well-developed limbs may be His Royal Highness's new pet."
"Yes, our princess likes to collect some strange things. Ah, look, Your Highness Xiao Potter, is so handsome."
"Yes, look at His Highness Xiao Potter. As long as he stands there, everyone else will be compared. If he can make a good marriage with the princess, it may be another good story for the sea clan."
"Tell you, I have heard rumors recently. Your Highness seems to be in love with someone else!" A noble mermaid goddess said mysteriously.
"Nasha, you're talking nonsense again. Who can compare with our Highness Xiao Potter, in terms of family background, appearance, character, and talent... Could it be His Highness Roye?"
"No, the Hailong clan is very stingy. It is impossible to intermarry with other clans. Could it be that we princesses are lovers? It is impossible!"
"Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, not. Look over there, have you seen the two guys in the country? The princess is very close to that man."
