Chapter 716 Sea Monster! Sea Monster!

In the Ziggurat, there were many discussions about the new Queen of Avalon.

In the end, the students generally believed that she was a ruthless, excellent acting, iron-blooded and decisive, and extremely aggressive monarch... the opposite of the previous generation of queens.

Many people called her a lunatic. Because according to normal international social behavior, even if she was really assassinated, it would be impossible to immediately launch a military retaliation lasting for several months... especially when the military strength and top powerhouses of Star Antimony were far stronger than Avalon on the surface.

The decisiveness of the iron-blooded queen made the people of Star Antimony feel afraid.

Although the Griffin Legion did not attack civilians, it was always attacking high-value targets-but unfortunately, as the territory of the Black Phase and the only breeding base for necromancers, the Necromancer Academy "Ziggar Tower" was included in this "high-value target".

The barrier of the Ziggurat Tower could barely protect them, but the crackling lightning washing the ground made them dare not leave the Ziggurat Tower for a long time, and many facilities placed outdoors were destroyed as a result. Not to mention the dead spirits and ghosts that were raised outside...

The psychic tower, which was originally dead and foggy, with the screams and cries of wronged souls everywhere and pitch-black, has now become blue sky, white clouds and green grass outside.

When they were sleeping in the dormitory, they could hear the whistling sound of griffins flying through the air outside. Then there was thunder, and then the power went out - now the necromancer academy has already used electric lights and telephones.

That is, the griffins did not attack civilians, and the Star Antimony people can now produce and live normally.

——However, Avalon proved one thing.

That is... "What if they attack civilians"?

They proved that they really have the ability, and the queen can really do such a thing. Five years ago, the students of the Spiritual Tower basically commented on Avalon as "a weak and backward knight country that should have been thrown into the trash can of the old times", "a fragile iron bucket", "a toy that is self-contained, self-corrupted, and breaks at the touch"... and now the students' comments are "I don't want to go to war with the Avalon people" and "I would rather deal with the Iris people".

It is even more difficult to arouse the fear of the Star Antimony people without triggering their resistance consciousness than to conquer them. If the Avalon people really launched a revenge without regard for the consequences, the Star Antimony people would also hate the Avalon people... But the Avalon people showed their skills and hinted at their strength... but left them half a face and did not really hurt them.

In this way, the Star Antimony chose to retreat.

If Avalon is used as an imaginary enemy, even conscription will encounter resistance - because no one wants their hometown to be attacked by the Griffin Legion as soon as they go to the front line.

——The deterrence that is not fired is far more threatening than the forbidden technique that is fired.

All of this was figured out by the 19-year-old half-elf queen herself.

Although there are rumors that this is related to the Minister of State, Aiwass... However, he is a good man who has been unanimously recognized by the elven cardinals of the Eternal Theocracy. This is enough to prove that all accusations against his character and morality are rumors... Because nothing can prove a person's true heart better than the power of the Tao.

Then if Aiwass is removed from it, people will find a terrible fact:

All major events in Avalon in recent years have been directly or indirectly participated by this little queen! And the final result of these major events is that power has been successfully and completely transferred to the hands of the new king, and the kingdom's chronic diseases and risks have been almost completely resolved...

And Paul finally remembered why he had an impression of the name Aleister... This is the eldest lady who had an ambiguous rumor with "Pope Aiwass"!

The ruthless person who competed with the Iron-Blooded Queen for men... What did she do in Xingtan?

Paul hesitated for a long time, but still plucked up the courage to tell the professor that "he had leaked the plan of the professor and the master."

He could keep it a secret - but if the professor or the master eventually learned about it from somewhere else, then he would have to bear the consequences.

Now, he could instead throw the responsibility to the master... She had told Paul to surrender when he met the enemy.

Strangely, Professor Laxmi had no reaction to this. He neither blamed Paul nor asked what he had said.

Professor Laxmi just nodded, indicating that he knew, and ended the topic.

But from his flickering eyes and the action of constantly drinking tea, he seemed to be thinking about something.

When the students of the Spirit Tower finished their "work", it was completely dark.

After Paul had dinner with the professor, he found an excuse to leave Professor Laxmi and ran back to Dimiter.

They had nothing to do, so they ran to the deck of the cruise ship.

At 9:30 in the evening, the golden moonlight sprinkled on the black sea.

There was no light at the bow, and it was pitch black. For ordinary people, it is a terrifying dark place, but for the two of them, it is a very suitable and peaceful resting place.

Except for the sound of the waves, there is no other sound.

Dimitri looked up at the moon in a daze. This guy who usually talks a lot now curled up in the corner like a shadow, not saying a word - Paul didn't even need to think about it carefully to know that he must be thinking of Miss Aleister. Or, the legendary figure "Lady Bayard" in the imperial period.

As was customary in keeping such matters secret, Paul did not tell his foul-mouthed friend the true identity of Miss Aleister.

But at this moment, Paul suddenly heard some strange sounds.

——Before becoming a Necromancer, his extraordinary profession in the Path of Love was called "Trickster".

This profession was developed in the ancient Parthian country.

In the ancient Parthian kingdom, gambling was popular between slaves and masters. Initially, this was because when the Parthians punished their slaves, because they did not want to bear the heavy burden of murder, they would use methods such as "drawing lots" to leave the responsibility to fate and regard the "lotting results" as God's will.

Later, this simple drawing of lots expanded to include many forms of unfair gambling including playing cards, dice, and chess. The result is little loss to one party and a cost in life to the other.

Among them, the highest level of gambling is the gambling battle between slaves and good masters - it has even become a kind of sideshow. Whether the slave wins and is pardoned as a free citizen, or the good master wins and the slave is executed on the spot, people will cheer and celebrate.

And in this environment, this profession was born...the fraudster.

In Parthian language, another translation is "professional gambler." Whether it is using abilities on slaves or using abilities on slave owners... this kind of behavior belongs to the chaotic and crazy path of love.

Paul's ears could easily distinguish the number of sides of the dice in the dice cup. Therefore, for him, it is easy to shake three sixes, and he will get the desired result even if he shakes it a hundred times.

But now, he heard a "strange noise" coming from the bottom of the sea.

It was a completely different sound than the waves. Like something is approaching.

And, it becomes increasingly clear——

Paul's eyes suddenly opened wide and he realized what it was.

"Dimmit!"

He immediately shouted loudly subconsciously.

Dimitri suddenly jumped up and pulled Paul at the same time.

Paul was so frightened that he couldn't move his legs, so Dimitri pulled him but didn't. As a result, the two of them fell together in a direction away from the sea and further into the deck - although they were very embarrassed, the two of them rolled and crawled, but they just managed to avoid a sudden attack!

——It was a huge, powerful tentacle.

Paul recognized it at a glance. The tentacle was even thicker than his waist - its length alone was over ten meters above the water!

It suddenly slapped against the side of the ship, easily shattering the railing completely.

Immediately afterwards, there was another tentacle——

This time Paul responded.

He waved his hand to block him and Dimit, and an earthy yellow light curtain appeared in front of him.

That's preservation!

The defense of the second-level preservation technique is enough to easily withstand the rain of rifle bullets!

——But the light curtain had no effect under the seemingly slow tapping of the tentacles!

It's not crushing or dispersing.

That is the absolute suppression of the inferiors by the superiors who are on the same path!

Demit suddenly dodged and pushed him to the ground, which allowed him to barely avoid the tentacle attack.

The howling wind passed by, and Dimit let out a scream - his back was brushed by the tentacles. Blood immediately soaked out and wet his clothes.

"Dimmit, Dimit!"

Paul panicked and tried to drag Dimitre's body, but found that he couldn't do it at all.

Immediately afterwards, he saw a desperate scene——

At least a dozen tentacles were raised high and slapped on the deck of the ship, smashing them to pieces. The frightened screams and roars of the people below came up through the broken deck.

The entire wooden structure of the ship creaked and screamed.

A huge sea monster hugged the ship from the bottom!

——The whole ship began to shake violently!
