Alien Knights

Dead creatures become walking corpses?

Todd stretched out the dragon's head in front of the mermaids, and asked, What's going on?

Rita lowered her head and replied: The cause of the incident is an ocean current passing through the southern bay. Unlike ordinary sea water, this ocean current is mixed with some black substances that we have never seen before. In the end, these substances followed the sea water, washed up together into the ocean floor, and settled near our home.

These black substances look like grease floating in the water. Although they look dead on the outside, they have strange behaviors. They will actively approach the living creatures and attach to them.

Rita's face was pale, and she bit her lips tightly: Those sea creatures that are attached by black substances will slowly corrode their whole body, and their flesh and blood will turn into nutrients, grow more black substances, aggravate the degree of infection and eventually die. After they die for a period of time, the corpses will start to move again and attack all living things around them.

As long as any life touches the black oil on the body of the dead, it will be infected and become the next victim...

Todd lifted the dragon's claws, held the dragon's head, and meditated while thinking to himself: Transforming creatures into undead, why does all this sound familiar?

Todd continued to ask: Where did the ocean currents that brought those black substances pass?

The Gulf to the South of the Ayyub Empire.

Those things come from the territory of the empire?

Todd, who was full of doubts, thought for a long time, but still couldn't get a clue.

Great Holy King, please help us! Rita clasped her fingers together and lowered her head and shouted: Our home has been invaded by these black demons, and we who lack food and shelter have become helpless. Homeless victims, I implore you to lend a helping hand!

Looking down at the mermaids, Todd asked, How does the ancient ocean god you speak of deal with this disaster?

Rita shook her head and said, The great Krakosh told us through the oracle that he has more important things to do and can't escape for the time being, so let us come to you for help.

Todd curled his lips and thought to himself: The so-called more important things should refer to building heaven. In the end, Leviathan lost his people to himself...

Thinking of this, Todd has already made a decision in his heart: How many people do you have in total?

Two thousand people...

Rita thought for a while, and added: If the devils in the seabed are allowed to spread, other oceanic tribes will suffer. At that time, more people will come here to seek refuge.

Todd spread his dragon wings, fanned the snow on the high mountain, and said to the mermaids: I promise to give you shelter. In the west of Muxi City, I will mark out a sea area for you to live in. At the same time, I will use Waiheke Island as a Neutrally, the corresponding aid materials will be arranged to the shore of the island as soon as possible, and you can take them freely.

The mermaids wept with joy, praising Todd's favor.

Before they could react, the soul space had been closed, and their consciousness had returned to the harbor.

It seems that only a few seconds have passed, the citizens on the shore are still whispering, and the crusaders are still loudly maintaining order.

Watching the mermaids open their eyes with joy and excitement on their faces, the Valkyrie who was in charge of delivering the message squatted on the shore and said to each other: It seems that the gods have given you what you want. The badge , can you return it to me now?

Rita looked down at the dragon-shaped badge in her hand, and nodded desperately as if waking up from a dream. She slid her fins, swam to the bottom of the platform, and carefully handed the badge back to the Valkyrie.

The Valkyrie hung the badge around her neck again, put it on her chest, and said: Although I don't know what the son of the gods said, but our god is the irresistible will of all believers, and his words are supreme. decree.

Rita nodded, waving her fins, and while turning around to swim to the depths of the sea, said happily: I want to go back to my tribe, they are still anxiously waiting for news... Now, I can tell them that everything It'll all be fine.

An hour later, in the political hall of Muxi Palace.

While reading the report in his hand, Emerson said in disbelief: I still can't believe that there are really mermaids in this world.

Ackerman, the dark elf sitting opposite him, shrugged his shoulders, motioned the prime minister to look at himself with his eyes, and said with a smile: If I remember correctly, alien races such as orcs and elves used to exist only in myths and legends. .”

Wearing a fiery red dress, the beautiful elf Barbara discussed quietly with another elf representative for a while, and asked, I heard from people present that those mermaids believed in the ancient god of the sea—Kraquo May?

Elijah, the representative of the scholar, said after pondering: I have heard this name in the literature, and in some tribal legends, it is said that it is the gestator of ancient life and the master of the ocean... But before that, I I always thought it was just a legend...

Ackerman smiled helplessly: At least now we know that these legends are true...Moreover, from the narration of those mermaids, this master of the sea—Karakosh, seems to be related to our son of the gods, not only Is it an acquaintance relationship, or a very good friend who trusts each other.

His Majesty is here!

As the guards sang loudly, Todd walked quickly into the hall, among the kneeling crowd, went straight to the throne, sat down and said directly: Get up, let us save these unnecessary red tape , I have a few things to say.

First, what's the current situation on Waiheke Island to the west of Muxi City?

Prime Minister Emerson stood up and replied: There is a naval guard post on Waihe Island, and there are some fishermen. Other than that, there is not much development.

Todd nodded and said, Very good, design blueprints, find craftsmen, and prepare building materials. I want to build a trading post on Waihe Island.

Elijah, who is in charge of urban planning and civil engineering, was a little surprised: Trading station? I will start preparing the drawings immediately, but in terms of design and planning, what functions does this trading station need to achieve?

The main function of the trading post is generally the storage of materials and the exchange of goods. The naval guard post can be retained. In addition, an artificial bay is dug in the shallows of the island to facilitate entry and exit.

Hearing Todd's words, Elijah already understood a little that the construction on Waiheke Island was actually for the mermaid that appeared today.

After Todd made arrangements for Waiheke Island, he continued: Secondly, I need the Royal Navy to immediately send a scouting team to collect seawater samples along the direction of the ocean current...Cumberland will be in charge of this matter... Wait, where are the Cumberlanders?

Emerson reminded in a low voice: Your Majesty, have you forgotten? Due to the border dispute, Cumberland has already rushed to the Holy Acropolis with the Knights.

Todd patted his forehead, and changed his words: Then, the task of the reconnaissance team should be handed over to the North Island Knights. Tell them that there may be a very dangerous substance in the seawater, and they only need to sample it, and they are not allowed to touch it.

After explaining these two things, Todd stood up from the throne, and walked towards the gate quickly under the astonished gaze of everyone.

His body began to change slowly, from human form to dragon form.

Emerson chased to the door, looked up at the shining dragon on the palace square, and asked loudly, Your Majesty, where are you going?

I have some questions, and I need to ask the person involved to clarify. Todd turned the dragon's head, looked at the subordinates who were at a loss, and said in a deep voice: As for you, start preparing to welcome the arrival of new neighbors.
