Chapter 2313 Unexpected Disaster
Naturally, there were gains, but they were slightly different from the expectations of the two queens.
"Then who is that?"
The Elf Queen looked shocked and looked directly at the blue steel water tank.
In the water jar, a young girl with bright eyes and good eyesight was scratching the edge of the water jar, looking timidly this way.
It was completely different from the reaction of the Elf Queen. After all, the Elf Queen was mature and prudent. She had experienced great disasters and even faced a giant dragon. Despite this unexpected situation, she remained very calm. She glanced at the water jug and then, He looked at me with a slightly ambiguous look and said, "Xiaoyi, you are a little overthinking. Although Anastasia is a queen, you should understand her temperament. She is not that kind of inhumane girl. She I already know that you are flirtatious and will not restrain you emotionally, so there is no need for you to hide your beauty in a golden house."
The beauty hidden in the golden house?
I was confused. Why didn’t I remember when the golden house had hidden its beauty?
Following the Fairy Queen's gaze, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile: "Grandma, you misunderstood. This is my friend. Her name is Little Lantern, from the mermaid tribe."
"Mermaid tribe?" The two queens couldn't help but move closer to the blue steel water tank, looking at the small lantern, and looked at it carefully.
After a moment, the Elf Queen showed surprise and curiosity on her face, but the Fairy Queen nodded calmly and murmured: "It turns out that the Naga clan really does exist."
"Naga?" I asked doubtfully.
"Oh." The Fairy Queen nodded slightly and said, "The word 'mermaid', translated in ancient Elf language, means Naga."
Watching the little lantern timidly start a daily conversation with the Elf Queen with a curious expression on her face, the Elf Queen and I retreated to the sofa and sat down to chat.
After a conversation with the Fairy Queen, I almost got an overview of the mermaid clan in Zephyr Continent.
During the period of goblin rule, the Naga clan and the goblin clan had a good relationship. After all, one ruled the land and the other ruled the sea. They did not interfere with each other and did not invade each other. There was no interest entanglement, so there was no love or hatred. Sometimes, the goblins even When the tribe encounters difficult problems, they will also turn to the Naga tribe for help, and the Naga tribe will sometimes entrust some things to the fairy tribe because of the inconvenience of going ashore.
Over time, the relationship between the two clans became increasingly close, so much so that for a period of time, the goblin royal family even intermarried with the Naga royal family.
This was originally a beautiful thing. However, when the goblin royal family fell and became the public enemy of the mainland, the Naga clan, which was closely related to the goblin royal family, was naturally affected.
Not only was the Naga princess who married into the palace killed, but many Naga civilians also suffered unreasonable disasters.
The period of melee is an unreasonable period.
Rumors, sectarian organizations, feudal lords self-reliant, racial fratricide, and other things are commonplace.
Among the many rumors, there are some that some people still believe blindly to this day.
One is to raise a Naga at home and you can become rich overnight.
Secondly, if you eat the meat of the Naga tribe, you can live forever.
Third, the tears of the Naga tribe will turn into pearls, and they are extremely valuable.
Fourth, if you mate with the Naga tribe, you can strengthen your body and your strength will be greatly improved.
Fifth
In short, it is a welfare that can satisfy various human desires.
However, is this really the case?
Let’s not mention anything else. We will just say that mating with the Naga tribe can strengthen your body and your strength will be greatly improved. So, are all the princes who married the Naga princess strong? How can one defeat ten thousand and still not fall behind?
If this is the case, how was the goblin clan's regime subverted?
Don't tell me that working together can move mountains and rivers, and don't tell me that when we work together, everything is a paper tiger in the face of absolute strength.
If you don’t see it, no matter how many ant colonies there are, how can they shake Mount Tai?
No matter how powerful the mob is, it can't resist the dragon's breath!
Therefore, when analyzed from an objective perspective, the rumors are self-defeating. However, among the rumors, there are very few people who can truly analyze them from an objective perspective.
The Fairy Queen was a little worried and said: "Once the identity of this Naga girl is exposed, she will most likely suffer disaster. It is better to put her back into the sea. Perhaps this is the best outcome."
I thought for a moment and shook my head: "This probably won't work. Her family has either disappeared or been captured. She has been alone, wandering in the shallow sea, eating shrimps and crabs every day to barely make ends meet. Moreover, her mind is extremely simple. She said She will be captured at some point. If the person who captures her doesn't hurt her, that's fine. But if that person also believes in rumors that eating mermaids can lead to immortality, or that mermaid tears are pearls, then she Aren’t you going to suffer?”
"If she really ends up like this, then it can only be said that she is destined to be like this," the Fairy Queen said calmly.
"But she saved my life." I told the Fairy Queen about being saved from drowning.
After hearing this, the Queen Grandma pondered for a long time and said: "Since you insist on keeping her, I won't say anything more. However, you must be prepared to deal with the possible public opinion wave after the mermaid news spreads like wildfire. .”
Taking a deep breath, I nodded seriously: "Okay, I will find a way."
In fact, since the little lantern was brought home, I was thinking about what to do with her.
Placing it at home or hiding it in a tree house may seem safe, but it greatly limits the freedom of the little lantern.
Put her temporarily in the pond of the Elf Forest?
Although it seems to be a good idea, in fact, it is even more unsafe. Not to mention the patrols of the Rose Legion, many merchant hunters will also haunt the Elf Forest, either hunting or fishing. Although on weekdays, They abide by the law here, but there is no guarantee that after seeing the little lantern, they will be happy with their hunting instincts, and driven by desire, they will capture it, kill it for meat, or keep it in captivity and torture it.
Therefore, the Elf Forest is not a good place to settle.
I also thought about releasing Little Lantern in the sea around Moonlight City, but when I saw her heartfelt joy when chatting with other people, I knew that Little Lantern was actually afraid of being alone. Rather than letting her continue to be alone and homeless, I thought about it. Qianhai, why not take some risks and keep her by your side, so that you can see her smile from the heart, and repay the favor of saving your life.
After thinking about it, I finally thought of the most suitable place - a coffee shop.
There are many customers coming and going in the cafe, and it is lively and lively, which is exactly what Little Lantern likes. And she has a sweet and pure appearance, so she is very popular with many elves and nobles. Furthermore, with the proprietress present, some people who have evil intentions can't do anything about it. Take action, after all, the boss lady’s fists are not for nothing.
But here comes the question, will Barbara and Little Lantern get along peacefully?
