Chapter 3404 The Miserable Lotus
Becky's naughtiness is well-known in the devil world, otherwise she would not be given the title of 'Naughty Becky'.
Similar to Becky's naughty behavior, are the group of sea people I brought back.
During this week, I was lucky enough to be invited to visit the underwater palace of Longfoot Lotus.
The palace of Lotus was originally built with money from the Naga people. Although it is far less magnificent than the Naga palace, it is equally magnificent.
But now, the appearance of this castle that I see is completely different from the appearance when it was just built.
Mottled steps, collapsed city walls, rubble on the ground, and broken statues. This is no castle or palace, it's simply a ruin in the deep sea!
Frowning, I stared at Lotus, but I didn't know how to open my mouth.
After a while, Lotus said: What a sin.
If you want to ask why you said this, you have to start from when I brought back the Demon Realm Sea Clan.
In other words, in the past, the prosperity of the Demonic Land was not much inferior to that of the Zephyr Continent, but the development of the Hai Clan was far inferior to that of the Zephyr Continent.
The reason is said to be because the magic value content in the seawater in the Demon Realm is extremely low, which causes the sea tribe to take a long time to awaken to a low level. Coupled with the hunting of land species, it can be said that only those who are outstanding among the tribe can still survive. Very few.
It wasn't until Long-Legged Lotus first showed his prowess and was named an apostle that the Demon Sea Clan could grow normally.
Lotus is a kind-hearted apostle and has a strong ability to control his desires. This leads to him rarely caring about foreign objects. Basically, he lives in a corner of the sea every day, either sleeping, eating, or continuing to sleep. , living almost the same life every day.
It had also seen castles and palaces on land at that time, but again, he didn't care about foreign objects. Because of his character, he was too lazy to build castles and the like. Anyway, with his physical fitness , find any place, even if it is a marble tile surface, for him, it is a soft and comfortable big bed.
There is a saying that if something is good above, it will be followed by below.
Lotus is like this, and his group of backward-minded subordinates naturally don't care much about their living environment.
Although the living environment seems messy, after all, he has no worries about food and clothing, and no one dares to offend, so his life is still quite happy.
After Lotus was transferred to the Zephyr Continent and almost survived, he has been dormant to this day. After experiencing another crusade against the Poseidon clan, he may have developed a yearning for the living environment of the Poseidon clan, or he may have felt that it was necessary. Do as the Romans do. Since he is already living in the deep sea of the Zephyr Continent, why can't he build a castle and palace of his own like other races?
So, with my commitment and his actual actions, the castle was finally completed.
The grandeur, magnificence, and domineering qualities are exactly what Lotus wanted.
After the castle was built, Lotus was so excited that he got in without even saying hello and started living the life of a stay-at-home apostle.
I originally thought that this castle would gradually become dilapidated due to the erosion of the sea water, and eventually turn into ruins.
Unexpectedly, time and seawater did not become the culprits in destroying the castle. Instead, the culprit was the group of sea people who were most loyal to Lotus.
This group of guys, after seeing Lotus in a building, thought that Lotus was imprisoned, and immediately launched a devastating attack on the castle.
Although the castle is made of huge rocks, even ordinary cannons may not be able to destroy it, but how can the attack power of this group of elites of the Demon Sea Tribe be comparable to the power of cannons?
After a few back and forth, the castle was reduced to the miserable scene in front of us.
Lotus, who was falling asleep, was woken up immediately. He thought it was an earthquake, but when he opened his eyes, he was so angry that he almost waved his tentacles and killed the family for justice. How could I beg so easily? The castle built by grandpa and grandma was destroyed by you guys in less than a year?
Lotus is so angry that he wishes he could cut these things into a pot and stew them all in one pot.
But no matter how angry you are, what can you do?
As the saying goes, those who don't know are not to blame. This group of sea people are Rawls' most loyal subordinates. What's more, he has never taught these subordinates about the beauty of material life.
With no tears left, he contacted the Naga tribe, but the Naga tribe had already built a castle for him. To put it bluntly, they didn't owe each other anything, so they wouldn't work for Lotus in vain unless they paid wages.
The original Naga tribe only had to pay enough gold, silver and jewelry. After all, at that time, the Sea tribe also lacked these gadgets.
But since the Poseidon Clan was conquered, the Sea Clan's demand for gold, silver, and jewelry has not been that great, because there is no need to pay tribute every once in a while like before. There are more tributes, and they have to be expensive. .
Nowadays, the Naga people are gradually getting richer.
As the material conditions of the Nagas have improved, their demands for remuneration have naturally increased.
To build a castle, you need fine gold the size of a brick.
This stumped Lotus.
The seabed of Zefeng Continent seems to contain a large number of mineral deposits, including a lot of fine gold ore and mithril ore. But the problem is that the location of those fine gold and mithril mines is very awkward, under the hard surface stone of the seabed.
This kind of seabed surface stone is a product of the solidification of seabed magma. Because it contains fine gold and a large amount of magic fluctuations contained in the sea water, the hardness of this layer of rock is difficult for even Lotus to overcome. It shatters.
Not to mention mining.
The mines on the seabed cannot be moved, and the mines on land cannot be collected. After all, not every piece of land has fine gold veins, and not everyone is willing to help Lotus, who is an apostle. No, on the contrary, It would be better to say that no one would help Lotus except a child with a clear mind.
The Naga tribe only asked for one thing, a piece of fine gold brick as big as a brick, which was the reward for rebuilding the castle this time.
With no other choice, Lotus could only ask me for help, and he was very concerned about his reputation and didn't want other apostles to know about his predicament, so he coaxed me over with an invitation.
After I understood the general situation, I didn't know what expression I should use to look at Lotus.
But looking at his pitiful look, I couldn't bear it. After much thought, I tentatively dialed the call crystal, contacted Master Dewey, explained the cause and effect of the matter, and then asked him for a fine gold brick. .
Although fine gold is a strategic material in all countries, I am the adopted son of Master Dewey after all. Moreover, through this matter, I may also make friends with an apostle, which can be regarded as an extraordinary gain.
So Master Dewey immediately agreed, then gave me a few more words and hung up the call.
