Chapter 113 Sea God's Relic
The Dark Castle defense line is an insurmountable natural barrier. The giant black reefs span the sea and the First and Second Corps, the most elite troops of Atlantis, are stationed here. In addition to being fully staffed, they are also equipped with a powerful flywheel combat system. ∈♀
Chen Rui frowned slightly, "Are we going to fly over such a huge line of defense?"
The middle-aged fishman smiled and said, "Flying cannot be flew. The Atlantis Legion has flywheel chariots, but we can dive underwater."
"Underwater?" Chen Rui said: "Xueer and I don't have gills and cannot breathe in the water. Otherwise, we'll send you here."
The middle-aged fishman obviously did not want Chen Rui and Xueer to leave, and hurriedly said: "Both are my benefactors. Since you have come here, why are you embarrassed to not invite you to our fishman's territory? Don't worry, I, Gibbs, use my life to guarantee the safety of both of you, and as for the undersea sneaking, it is also included in me."
Chen Rui thought for a few minutes, and the old saying goes, the enemy's enemy is his friend. Although the villages along the coast of Daxizhou are also good to Chen Rui, they obviously do not have the strong combat power of the fishman clan. If they join forces with these fishman, they might be able to rescue Ye Wuhen and Lao Pan.
"Okay, then go to your territory and take a look."
When Chen Rui said this, he deliberately looked at Xueer. Xueer was different from the education received by modern women on the ground. She had already determined that she was Chen Rui's person in her heart. She would unconditionally support Chen Rui no matter what decision she made.
Seeing that Chen Rui and Xueer agreed, the fishman Gibbs was overjoyed and was able to stop at a distance from the Dark Castle defense line. Gibbs stepped into the sea water, and his throat emitted a high-frequency sound wave unique to the fishman, calling on his companion.
After a while, several heads appeared in the sea. They were all fishmen. They were very happy to see Gibbs come back, but they remained alert to Chen Rui.
Gibbs seemed to have a high status among the fishmen. He whispered a few words in the ear of one of the fishmen. The fishman was stunned, looked at Chen Rui and Xueer, and then turned around and returned to the sea with his companions.
Soon, the fish people brought a semicircular transparent reinforced glass cover, and put the glass cover upside down in the water, so that the inside could naturally be filled with air. Although these gases were not much, they were strong enough and Xueer stayed in the water for more than ten minutes.
Although this diving method is primitive, it is very interesting. Xiaoba used two arms to hold the glass cover, covering Chen Rui and Xueer sitting on his head, and set out happily towards the seabed. As for Gibbs, he was a fishman and could breathe in the water, as long as Xiaoba grabbed him tightly.
Swish ~
Xiao Ba was extremely fast, and even those fishmen who regarded the ocean as their home could not catch up, which brought them great shock.
A secret passage was dug by the fishmen under the sea, connecting the sides of the sea. Chen Rui encountered a raid from the fishmen troops in Atlantis, which was why.
Two legions and 200,000 troops were arranged on the ocean stretching for two hundred nautical miles, which seemed to be quite large, but in fact, this level of defense was far from enough. Gibbs and his companions chose to pass under this sea with weak defense, but did not attract the attention of the army. They quickly crossed the defense line and entered the territory of the fishman clan.
The number of fishmen around was increasing, and they were conveying news to each other, leading Chen Rui and others to their base, Fishmen Island.
Fishman Island is a huge desert island, but only about half of the residents actually live on the island. Many fishmans collect bamboo from the island and build tall bamboo houses in the reef shoals along the island.
There is no doubt that compared to the technologically developed Atlantis and Atlantic City, Fishman Island is more primitive, and even worse than those villages along the coast of Great Western continent.
The fish people live in the recommended bamboo house, and the weapons they use are not high-tech fiber products, but metals collected and refined by themselves. Only a few elite fish warriors can obtain trophy and wear fiber breastplates and spears like those of the Atlantis Sea God warrior.
The arrival of outsiders like Chen Rui and Xueer has aroused great interest from the Fishman clan. Many children from many tribes are curious to come over. They have exquisite tail fins and can make many incredible tricks in the water. Even the newborn child is already a swimmer at the level of a healthy swimmer.
In addition, there are countless dolphins on the Fishman Island. These smart and beautiful creatures live with fish people. Each family has their own dolphins. Just like family members, fish people will raise their offspring. Young fishmen and small dolphins play together, and adult fishmen and adult dolphins are watching.
Chen Rui looked at the faces of these fishmen carefully and found that there was no hideous look. Apart from mutations in the lower body, they could not see any difference from humans. The elderly are kind and steady, while the young are lively and flirtatious.
"Look, on Fishman Island, dolphins are our best friends, a family and a dolphin family have been living together for generations," Gibbs explained.
At this time, a few little white dolphins came from afar. They came to Gibbs and shouted excitedly, but after shouting for a long time, they didn't see their relatives appear, and their eyes became sad.
Gibbs picked up the youngest white dolphin and held back tears and said, "The white dolphin I saved before was their mother, named Meiya."
Chen Rui didn't say anything, just nodded.
In terms of the first impression, the fishman clan is obviously not as cruel as in the Atlantis murals. They are a group of very loving people.
Gibbs' home is on Fishman Island, and the house is also built with bamboo. There is no special thing. Except that the dolphins owned by their family are white, which are obviously faster and stronger than those gray dolphins.
Gibbs had two brothers, each with his wife and children. In addition, the elderly in the family, it was a typical big family, and they all lived in several adjacent bamboo houses.
Chen Rui, Xueer and Xiao Ba were warmly received and were invited to the widest bamboo house to deliver the most fishy and exquisite food from the people.
More and more people outside gathered, and it seemed that everyone on the Fishman Island was coming, whispering to each other outside.
What's even more strange is that they are lined up, with the soldiers on one side, the women and children on the other side.
Just when Shen Rui was confused, Gibbs and an old man walked into the room. Gibbs introduced: "This is my father, Buffenheim, the patriarch of the fishman clan."
When Chen Rui heard that he was the patriarch, he became polite to the old fishman. Although the fishman has a tail fin on the lower body, they can also walk on the shore very quickly, but the walking movements are a bit strange, like a person with his legs tied up is jumping.
"We are all ready, please follow me." Buffenheim, the leader of the fishman, said with his head down.
Chen Rui didn't know what the fishman was going to do, but he was respectful, so he followed Gibbs and his father out of the bamboo house with Xueer.
Hurry ~
At this moment, all the fishmen crawled on the ground at the same time, even the patriarch of Buffenheim was no exception, kowtowing deeply to Chen Rui and Xueer.
"Your Highness, please accept the most sincere respect from the Sea God Guards!" Buffenheim led all the fishmen and said loudly.
Princess!?
Chen Rui was stunned suddenly, turned around and looked at the quiet and beautiful girl beside him, and opened her eyes wide.
Buffenheim waved his hand and asked someone to bring a large fiber box, put it in front of Shen Rui and Xueer, and said in a deep voice: "This is the relic entrusted by the Sea God to the Guards Legion to hand over to Princess Snow. This not only contains the letter from the Sea God to the Princess, but also the most precious armor and weapons of the Sea God, the angry sea and sand!"
