Chapter 970 The Queen I Haven’t Seen for a Long Time
The startled little siren finally left the traffic channel with Shakira coaxing and frightening her. Before leaving, she grabbed Doudou curiously and looked at her for a long time: She had never seen it before in her life. For such a small "same kind", the world view has probably been greatly affected. Hao Ren didn't know anything else, but he knew that during this trip to Nasatorn, he had a more thorough understanding of the "Siren" race...
Soon, they arrived at the royal area located in the center of Nasatorn.
What appeared in front of Hao Ren was a group of buildings that had not been fully repaired. There used to be the magnificent palace of the Siren Queen here. However, during the crisis a few months ago, the palace was greatly damaged due to the aftermath of the battle between everyone and the brain monsters. The main part of it was almost razed to the ground, and the surrounding Most of the tower also collapsed in the explosion. Such huge damage cannot be rebuilt in a short time, and today's Kraken does not have so many large machinery and construction techniques of the past, so they only repaired the spacecraft control facilities under the palace as much as possible, and then cleaned up the ruins on the surface. Several temporary buildings were built on it to serve as the Queen's residence and government offices. The several domed halls in the large open space look extremely shabby compared with the previous palaces, but it is precisely because many building ruins were cleared away that large tracts of open space were left here. These open spaces have now become new gathering centers. , you can see groups of sea monsters wandering here - here Hao Ren finally saw a few sea monsters that remained human-like, and his eyes were no longer distracted by those fighting shrimps, giant sea crabs, The deep sea ooze monster will be tortured...
Shakira led Hao Ren and his party towards the gate of the temporary palace. Fortunately, the sea monsters in the palace have not completely lost their control. The battle maids guarding the door still maintain the appearance of snake women. These heroic battle maids holding tridents know Hao Ren - because they all knew Hao Ren at the beginning. Having been beaten by Hao Ren and his gang - they immediately happily swam over to say hello, while the two guards ran to inform the people inside. Hao Ren followed Shakira into the palace, but as soon as he entered, he discovered that the sea monsters in the palace were not that strong...
Except for the sirens who have to stand guard at various posts, they still look like humans, and there is also a chaotic battle of demons here. Those Pipi shrimps and sea crabs running around with great momentum can be explained as more or less the fighting form of the sea monster, but those buckets and sea urchins rolling around on the ground can only be explained as the Queen's guards. Boredom has its tricks up its sleeve. Hao Ren even saw a huge anchor "walking" majestically in the palace corridor. He was stunned. Shakira kindly explained: "...This is the anchor of the Titanic. Originally, it was the anchor of the Titanic." She planned to transform into a whole Titanic, but then she found that there was no room for it in the palace..."
At this time, the anchor had jumped in front of Hao Ren. The piece of "steel" was shaking in place, and suddenly turned into another familiar person: Soma.
It's also the siren I met in the last incident...
"Ah, Hao Ren, long time no see!" Soma greeted Hao Ren happily, and then solemnly introduced his current situation, "I am now the queen's bodyguard, and the queen is inside, but She was busy hosting the banquet and couldn't come out, so she asked me to take you there."
Hao Ren followed Soma in confusion. When he came to a hall, he realized what the "banquet" he was talking about was about. It turned out that there were also small-scale celebrations here, including various humanoid and non-humanoid sea monsters. (Most of them should be nobles and officials) happily holding parties here. Nangong Wuyue stretched her neck and looked around to look for the Siren Queen, but she didn't find it for a long time: "Where is the Queen? Is she transformed too?"
Soma pointed to a corner of the venue: "There she is! She's here!"
Hao Ren looked in the direction of the opponent's finger. Even though he was in the water, he was still sweating all over his shoes: because he suddenly saw a torpedo staggering towards him!
"I'm going to choke you!" Lily was immediately frightened by the scene and spoke in dialect, "There are torpedoes!!"
As a result, as soon as she finished speaking, the torpedo had stopped firmly in front of Hao Ren, then shook in place and exploded into a mist. What emerged from the mist was the figure of the Siren Queen Katrina. The Siren Queen was even startled by Lily, and shouted: "Where is it, where is the torpedo?!"
"Didn't you just do that!" Hao Ren's cold sweat finally subsided, but then it came out again, "Are you going too far with your transformation!?"
"Oh, so you're talking about me," Katrina finally realized. She smiled and shook her long snake tail, "The queen always has to be a little different, and I want to be more creative than others. "
Hao Ren was speechless: "..."
"It's been such a long time," Katrina didn't feel anything was wrong at all. She just smiled gently and dignifiedly, her eyes lingering on Hao Ren and his party one by one, "Elsa came twice during this period. .”
Hao Ren looked at the Siren Queen with a strange expression. It was not that there was anything abnormal about her current state, quite the opposite, but that it was too normal: Her Majesty the Queen became dignified and elegant in the blink of an eye, and her words and deeds were full of... With her full temperament and momentum, you would never have guessed that she had transformed herself into a torpedo a minute ago to scare people... No one else can be so versatile, right?
A sentence came out in his mind that brought happiness to his soul: The siren is indeed made of water...
At this moment, Katrina saw that Hao Ren was silent, so she took the initiative to speak: "You guys came here suddenly, there must be something important, right?"
"Oh, yes, we are here on business," Hao Ren finally realized and patted his head, "As soon as we came here, we encountered your unprecedented special festival, which almost confused me... I can find a quiet place. Where to talk?"
Katrina nodded: "Follow me."
Hao Ren followed the Siren Queen, but he soon noticed that Lily's eyes were always looking around, and Doudou beside him was also circling excitedly, so he waved to the others: "If you are not interested, Just play outside and don't cause trouble."
As soon as these words came out, everyone except Vivian disappeared - as expected, they were not willing to go to the meeting...
Nangong's family of four ran to communicate with the sirens, and Lily ran to look for something to add to her "bark treasure". They floated happily in this paradise filled with the smell of fish everywhere. The cats all became energetic as if they had smelled catnip, and the little mermaid Doudou was running around the entire hall like a happy bullet, as if she was returning to her hometown. Seeing this situation, Hao Ren called Nangong Wuyue from a distance: "Qiuyue! Help take care of Doudou, don't let her get lost!"
Then he turned to Vivian: "Aren't you going to follow?"
Vivian rolled her eyes: "You tend to have short circuits when you talk. I'll go with you to calm things down."
Hao Ren was speechless again: "..."
The three of them came to a rest room next to the hall. Katrina saw the serious expression on Hao Ren's face, so she dismissed all the maids and guards here, and then asked: "What happened?"
"It has something to do with your home planet," Hao Ren nodded, "Well, don't be nervous, there is no problem with your planet, the problem is with a bunch of unlucky exiles - I saved another group of people a while ago... …”
At that moment, Hao Ren told Katrina what happened in the dream plane, and concealed the overly complicated background and information about the artifact. The Siren Queen listened carefully, and only occasionally asked a few questions - about the shape and principles of those exiled arks, which she seemed to be very interested in. After Hao Ren finished speaking, she blinked: "In other words, there is a group of aliens. Like us, they also encountered ecological disasters and fled their homes. Then their exile ark is now out of ammunition and food, and they must find a planet to dock. , and the Siren’s home planet Io is the most suitable place for them to land as far as you know?”
"To be honest, I can find alternatives if I have to look for them. My drone swarm found some planets that can barely survive on them, but those planets either have source blood pollution left, or the environment is harsh. The Ark can barely survive there. A large number of people will be lost after landing." Hao Ren looked into Katrina's eyes, "Io is the only planet that can be inhabited by them without any modification, and my drone swarm can protect that place."
Katrina frowned in thought.
