The underwater city was a cold and gloomy place. Even though there was day and night, it was just an environment simulation created by the White Tower … This kind of visible light was not the sun and had no temperature.
In fact, there were very few places in the underwater city that had green vegetation. However, in the palace, there was a greenhouse courtyard where many plants were planted.
These were some seeds that the Lemurians had kept on the ground before they sank to the bottom of the sea. They were then cultivated in the magical greenhouse.
Although it was called a courtyard, it was actually not small. It was the size of two football fields … and the Emperor of the underwater city, Louis XXXIX, was about to marry Miss Qin. She was currently living in a corner of this greenhouse.
Louis XXXIX had two wives who left him one after the other. Therefore, after the wedding, Miss Qin would become the third Empress of the underwater city. That was the dream of all the girls in the underwater city.
However, for Miss Qin, this was a very annoying matter. This level of annoyance even caused her cultivation that she had always maintained to deteriorate.
I can't continue like this … she thought to herself.
It was just that the palace was heavily guarded and she had yet to find a way to leave … That silver-robed girl was called Liuge. She had a bit of the ancestral blood of the Siren Clan and was the exclusive slave of Louis XXXIX … She had extraordinary strength.
Young Miss Qin wasn't afraid of Liuge's monstrous strength if her cultivation wasn't sealed.
Currently, because of the shackles on her feet, she was in a state of powerlessness … These shackles had a special device that pierced into her body and continuously released a strange power, causing her cultivation to feel as if it was in a deep sleep.
That day, she had a great battle with Gong Fanxing on the sea and was eventually injured and sunk into the deep sea. When she woke up in the underwater city, she was already shackled … As for her Green Lotus Sword Song, it had obviously been confiscated by the Emperor of the underwater city. Currently, she did not know where it was placed. In any case, she had already lost contact with the Green Lotus Sword Song.
Now, she had been trapped in the underwater city for a while … Her injuries had recovered, but unfortunately, she could not use her cultivation. If her cultivation recovered, or if she had the Green Lotus Sword Song in her hand, this insignificant underwater city would not be able to imprison her.
Now, the Emperor of Underwater City, Louis the 39th, had fallen in love with her at first sight and insisted on setting a date for their wedding. Miss Qin couldn't resist and could only helplessly stay for the time being, thinking of ways to escape every day.
"What is this?" At this moment, she pointed at the magic energy dazzle in her residence. It was something similar to a television in the Overworld. There was an advertisement on it.
The Siren Clan Atavistic slave girl called Liu Ge glanced at it and said calmly, "It's just an advertisement for the upcoming [All-Star Flying Statue Competition]. Looking at the time, the day after tomorrow is the [All-Star] Competition's auditions."
Seeing that this Miss Qin seemed to be paying attention, the young girl Liu Ge said a little more, "Miss, the Star Competition is a grand event held once every three years in Underwater City. It will make the entire Underwater City rejoice. In addition, His Majesty was also the champion of the competition back then. "
"Oh... is that so?" Miss Qin nodded expressionlessly and then asked, "On the day of the competition, will your emperor attend?"
Liu Ge said, "Of course. During the opening ceremony, His Majesty will give a speech. At the same time, the belt of the previous champion will be sealed, waiting for the new champion to be born."
Miss Qin thought for a while and said, "I'm tired of staying in this courtyard for too long. Tell Louis that I want to go and see the competition's scene."
The young girl Liu Ge said casually, "I will pass on your message... As for whether His Majesty will agree or not, I can't guarantee it."
"I want to be alone. You can go out." Miss Qin said calmly.
"Then I won't disturb you." The young girl didn't force her to stay. "If you need me, just tell me."
...
Louis the 39th looked like a twenty-seven or twenty-eight year old youth. His skin was slightly darker than the common people. Instead, it was fair... even pale.
Fair skin, this was the exclusive symbol of the Underwater City's royal family.
When the young girl Liu Ge came to report, His Majesty was receiving a guest in the reception room... a guest who had hurried over from the sea a few days ago.
The young girl Liu Ge sized him up.
The person who came looked a little old and even looked tired. His gray beard seemed to have not been taken care of for a few days... Justin, Liu Ge remembered this old man's name.
But after sizing him up, the young girl lowered her head and stood behind His Majesty the Emperor.
"Mr. Justin, I already know about the matter you mentioned." His Majesty the Emperor nodded at this time and said as if he was heartbroken, "I didn't expect that your honorable association's president Charles had already lost his life in the hands of a villain. It's really heartbreaking... And I, too, have lost an ally."
The old man in front of her was the captain of another huge submarine of the Black Order, [Sapphire]... That day, the Black Order was annihilated. But because Justin had to control [Sapphire], he was in the sea and avoided the disaster.
Later, when he saw that things were not going well, Justin ordered [Sapphire] to dive quickly... After that, the knight mechanism of the British Kingdom began to intervene. Captain Justin had no choice but to steer [Sapphire] into the deep sea.
He did not directly return to the base of the Black Order in the United States. Instead, he directly changed the course and came to this underwater city first.
At the same time, he only told His Majesty the Emperor that the president of the Black Order, Charles, had been defeated and died. He did not say that nearly 90% of the Religious Order's strength had been lost. Now, only a group of technical and logistical personnel were left on [Sapphire]... He had other plans in mind.
"Is there anything I can help you with, Mr. Justin?" Louis XXXIX said solemnly, "You and I are allies. Now that your honorable association's president has died, I think there should be some internal problems in your organization... I think Mr. Justin has come to this underwater city in hopes of getting some help from me, right?"
"Your Majesty the Emperor is righteous." Captain Justin's face was full of excitement. "Just as Your Majesty has thought, because of the president's death, the Religious Order is in a mess internally. Everyone wants to claim the position of the president..."
"You also want to be the president?" His Majesty the Emperor smiled.
Captain Justin said righteously, "I just don't want President Charles' painstaking efforts to be destroyed because of some people's seizure of power."
"How do you want me to help you?" His Majesty the Emperor did not beat around the bush and asked directly.
"I want to ask Your Majesty to send out the magic energy warriors to help me suppress those voices of unrest in the Religious Order and reorganize the Black Order!" Captain Justin looked at His Majesty's expression, and then said, "As long as we can reunite the Black Religious Order, only then can our cooperation with Your Majesty continue … and only then will I have the ability to carry out Your Majesty's earlier proposal."
"Hmm..." Louis XXXIX nodded. "In that case, I will send a magic energy brigade under my command back with Mr. Justin. The commander of this magic energy brigade is a warrior of my underwater city. He will definitely be able to quell the chaos for Mr. Justin. "
"In that case, thank you very much, Your Majesty the Emperor." Captain Justin was immediately overjoyed.
But in his heart, he was thinking about how to deal with this magic energy brigade after they came close to land... He had long coveted the magic energy equipment of the underwater city.
As for the matter of reorganizing the Black Religious Order, it was indeed true. However, it wasn't as he said. Captain Justin received a report yesterday that Katarina didn't die in the battle. Instead, she returned to the base and quickly suppressed the entire base. She also supported a new leader.
What surprised Captain Justin was that the new president of the Black Order was actually called Lamias... They had also discovered that Sapphire did not return and had already issued an order for Sapphire to return...
"The magic energy brigade needs some time to prepare before it can be deployed." His Majesty the Emperor waved his hand and said, "Mr. Justin, why don't you stay in the underwater city for a few more days?"
"I will follow Your Majesty the Emperor's orders." Captain Justin quickly lowered his head and said.
"You're welcome." His Majesty the Emperor smiled and said, "After all, I still need Mr. Justin to help me collect more information on the ground."
"I am willing to serve Your Majesty the Emperor."
His Majesty smiled and ordered for Mr. Justin and his entourage to be brought to a temporary place for them to settle down.
…
His Majesty the Emperor then brought Miss Liuge back to his study.
"What's the matter?"
The girl came forward and lowered her head and said, "Your Majesty, Miss Qin said that she hopes to attend the competition the day after tomorrow and watch the show."
A trace of surprise flashed in Louis XXXIX's eyes. "Oh? She actually has such thoughts... Do you know the reason? "
The girl thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps Miss Qin wants to see if she can find a chance to escape."
His Majesty the Emperor smiled and said, "Do you think she can find a chance?"
Miss Liuge said indifferently, "I won't let Miss Qin have a chance."
"Then I'll agree." His Majesty the Emperor chuckled and said, "After all, she is about to become my Empress. It's about time for her to appear in front of the public. The opening ceremony the day after tomorrow is a good opportunity... Go and prepare."
"Yes."
After the girl left, His Majesty the Emperor began to work, sending out document after document and order after order.
…
…
Underwater City, East Thirteenth Street.
"I see. This is the magic energy circuit."
"Yes. Because of the existence of these magic energy circuits, the energy contained in the magic energy core can be stably extracted." Reyaz sighed and said, "Compared to the ever-improving magic energy application, I think this magic energy circuit is the greatest discovery in magic energy technology."
Miss Maid didn't say anything. At this time, she took out a miniature magic energy core and placed it under a tool similar to a microscope to observe it.
These tools were found in Reyaz's workshop in his home. There were many tools here, and it was like a multi-functional workshop.
"What are you drawing?"
Reyaz leaned over and saw this big sister looking at the thin mirror he used for rough processing while drawing something. He couldn't help but be curious.
"I'm drawing the structure diagram of the magic energy core," Miss Maid said casually.
Reyaz blinked and looked more carefully. But this big sister was writing some words and symbols that he didn't understand: Chnho.
He couldn't help but be more surprised, "When can my thin mirror see so carefully?"
"I changed it a little." Miss Maid smiled and stopped her hands.
Reyaz was very curious and couldn't help but look at the mirror carefully. Suddenly, an unprecedented world opened in front of his eyes … He seemed to be attracted by this new world and was immersed in it.
Miss Maid suddenly asked, "Reyaz, these magic energy cores, do you know how to make them?"
Reyaz didn't raise his head and said, "This is produced by the Royal Family. We receive a fixed share every month for our daily needs. If we want more, we can only get it through other means. "
"For example?"
Reyaz said, "Generally, it's exchanged with contribution points. After we reach adulthood, we will automatically get 200 contribution points. In addition, if we participate in work, or have new inventions, or do something beneficial to the underwater city, or win awards in some competitions, we can get contribution points. "
"Do you want to participate in the 'Flying Serpent' competition to get contribution points?"
Reyaz heard this and put down the thin mirror in his hand. He hesitated and said, "Part of it is."
"Another part?"
"My father has committed some crimes, so he's currently locked up in prison." Reyaz lowered his head and said faintly, "If I can get a good ranking in the competition, I can get a large amount of contribution points … Contribution points can reduce my father's sentence. I haven't reached adulthood yet, so I can't participate in work. If I want to get contribution points, I can only do it through other means. "
Miss Maid glanced at the things Reyaz made in the workshop and made a preliminary judgment … This was the result of the young man's self-study.
Of course, because of the technical gap, she couldn't evaluate whether these things were good or bad for the time being.
But looking at Reyaz's expression, Miss Maid already had a plan … Probably Reyaz himself didn't think highly of himself.
"Do you still have a 'Flying Serpent' here?" Miss Maid suddenly said at this time, "It's fine if it's eliminated. I just want to see its working principle and general structure."
Reyaz thought for a while and said, "There's one in the garage, but it's the most common model and has been scrapped."
"Let me see." Miss Maid smiled slightly and said, "The popular model is the basic thing, and the basic thing is the best."
"Okay … Wait a moment."
Soon after, Reyaz struggled to drag out a 'Flying Serpent' named 'Asla' whose shell was full of cracks from the garage.
