Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 2870: 1571: The Whole Story (Part 2)
Capítulo 2870: Chapter 1571: The Whole Story (Part 2)
On the old face of one of the Fishman ministers surfaced a trace of hesitation, hesitantly speaking.
“What mysterious deity? Your Majesty of the Human Clan is right. If that truly were the deity, how could it trap the Father King and kill so many of our Fishman strongmen?”
The Fishman Princess finally spoke the words buried deep in her heart, insistently saying, “That is merely the root of chaos for our Fishman Kingdom!”
Once the Fishman Princess said this, all the Fishmen around were silent for a moment, merely nodding in agreement.
In fact, they had long vaguely realized this, but nobody was willing to break this window paper, after all, the current situation was unpredictable, and nobody knows exactly what is happening, so they dared not easily draw a conclusion.
“Understood, Princess!”
The Fishman minister who had initially questioned flashed with determination on his old face, and his body adorned in sea-blue magic robes vanished like a splash of water.
“Princess, when did you first come into contact with the other side?”
Watching the backs of several departing Fishman ministers, Leo Ray asked again.
At this moment, the group had already traversed the lengthy stairs and reached the slightly dim Underground Passage of the castle, continuing deeper inside.
“Reporting to Your Majesty of the Humans, it was over a century ago.”
The Fishman Princess’s starlit eyes dimmed, responding, “At the time we were renovating this castle and unexpectedly discovered a strange white space deep underground, what is referred to as the Palace, and first made contact with the mysterious presence.”
“So it really is a strange white space?”
Leo Ray nodded slightly, then explained, “It’s not a Palace, but merely the inside of their skeleton.”
“Inside of a skeleton?!”
Hearing Leo Ray’s words, everyone was left staring at each other, especially those Fishmen who had seen the place, all of whom were stunned, clearly not comprehending the meaning of his words.
“We’ll discuss this later. What happened after that?”
Leo Ray’s gaze swept over the intricate wave patterns of the lengthy Passage, continuing to inquire.
“At first, we didn’t believe the words of the presence until they helped us find numerous valuable Heavenly treasures, even the Gate of Truth. It was then that we placed our trust entirely in them.”
The Fishman Princess sighed heavily and said, “Especially the Father King, who was utterly obedient to them, including matters of trade in the Throne Corridor, which led to the desert Fishmen gradually becoming the target of second-tier powers’ attacks, unaccepted by other forces.”
“Looking at the timeline, it does match.”
Upon hearing this, Lila thoughtfully nodded, furrowing Melody Lyon: “So, the advantageous deeds you engaged in were actually instigated by that mysterious presence?”
“Though I don’t mean to shirk responsibility, it indeed wasn’t the intention of us desert Fishmen.”
Determination surged on the Fishman Princess’s fair face, she then spoke, “If we desert Fishmen can overcome this trouble, I will give everything I have to compensate everyone for their losses.”
Upon hearing the Fishman Princess’s words, whether the siblings Lila or others like Hollis, their disdain for the Fishmen eased considerably.
On careful reflection, aside from the recent times, since the Blank Era, the desert Fishmen indeed have been peaceful, without doing anything disgraceful.
“Everything is basically clear now.”
With the questions in his heart all answered, Leo Ray watched the Fishman Princess’s swift-moving figure, again feeling a surge of curiosity, for until now he didn’t even know her name.
“Apologies, Your Majesty of the Humans, I was going to introduce myself, but I’ve delayed until now.”
The Fishman Princess apparently noticed Leo Ray’s thoughts, quickly speaking, “My name is Lena, the youngest Princess of the desert Fishmen.”
“So it’s the little Princess of the desert Fishmen.”
Upon hearing this, both Lila and Hollis nodded thoughtfully.
It is said that this little Princess of the desert Fishmen possesses a rather rare Talent, even among desert Fishmen, she is a seldom-seen Grand Magician specializing in the Bubble System.
The Bubble System magic is a variation of Water Magic, which only a gifted few strongmen can master.
“Princess Lena, how much further to our destination?”
Leo Ray already gripped Rolanddel in his hand, surrounded by a dense Energy Barrier, clearly prepared for confrontation.
“Your Majesty, you may call me Lena. Compared to Your Majesty, I am but a tiny figure and dare not call myself Princess.”
In Lena’s slender hand appeared a long, slender sea-blue Metal Magic Staff, the sea-blue gemstone at its tip sparkling brightly: “It’s just ahead!”
As Lena’s words fell, the group’s view suddenly opened up, having emerged from the lengthy Underground Passage into a wide and bright underground hall.
The hall was filled with shadows of people, standing densely with elite Fishman guards and numerous priests wearing strange Fishman masks, similar to Lena’s earlier appearance.
It was clear the atmosphere within the hall was extremely tense, all the Fishman guards had their blades drawn, lined up neatly, staring intently at the other end of the Passage, while the Fishman priests were in a prayer stance, chanting with the same peculiar tone as outside.
“Greetings, your Highness!”
Upon seeing Lena, everyone respectfully placed their hands on their chests in salute, with several Fishman generals and the Priest promptly stepping forward.
“Cease the chanting immediately.”
Lena first nodded to the Priest, then inquired the Fishman generals about the situation: “What is going on?”
“Reporting to your Highness, those strange white eyes still wander inside the Temple and are increasingly numerous, almost to a dense state.”
A spirited voice responded as a tall female Fishman general stepped forward, with a clear clatter from the armor.
The other’s age appeared similar to Lena’s, yet her wheat-colored face exuded calmness and sharpness.
This wasn’t the most important thing. Leo Ray could clearly feel it.
Within the other’s aura was a special and subtle energy wave, though difficult to detect, it was not unfamiliar to him because it was identical to the aura of Sheila, Little Jie, and Xiao Jing.
“A Stone Spirit, perhaps? Power similar to Little Jie and Xiao Jing, at least Tier 6 Five Stars.”
Leo Ray sensed the other’s aura, nodded slightly,
Following a series of Power Activation battles, both Xiao Jing and Little Jie’s powers had grown compared to before, and the Stone Spirit’s power was similarly formidable.
“Lena previously mentioned that under the mysterious presence’s guidance, the Fishmen discovered a Gate of Truth, and it seems this unknown Stone Spirit was discovered then.”
As Leo Ray reached this thought, the unknown Stone Spirit noticed him as well, and inquired of Lena with full vigilance, “Princess, who are these strangers?”
“They are the helpers I found, the Father King will be saved this time!”
Lena’s voice brimmed with excitement, then nodded heavily towards Leo Ray’s hand tool: “Your Majesty of the Humans, let’s head to the Temple!”
After speaking, Lena resumed her stride towards the hall’s end.
There lay another Passage, the guarded place by the Fishman guards.
“Wait, Princess, this is too dangerous!”
The unknown Stone Spirit hurriedly blocked Lena’s path, casting doubtful glances at Leo Ray and the group, evidently questioning their capabilities.
After all, those peculiar white eyes are immune to all attacks, even ten more half-step Tier 7 strongmen would merely be sent to their deaths.
