The princesses all come to help me move the bricks [Infrastructure]

111.

The third princess is not the person who can completely take charge, and her opinions are not exactly the same as those of other princesses or candidates, and even differ from Neptune's ideas.

But her attitude also represents something to a certain extent.

According to the custom, although the choice of Neptune is judged by the gods, not all the losers play the center of power.

Especially today's possible heir candidates are all closely related by blood.

Anna certainly knew that the princesses were close.

Although in terms of heir relationship, there is an obvious competitive relationship between the eldest princess and the third princess, but perhaps because they grew up together and are related by blood, or because they themselves chose to be done by the gods, their relationship is not sharp.

From the tone of Princess Eri, Anna can also test out that no matter who inherits the Sea King position or becomes the official heir, they will not attack their sisters, and it is very likely that the other party still occupies a considerable position.

No matter now or in the future, the third princess will definitely have a certain amount of power, not to mention that she has such a temperament, and there will definitely be changes in the closed country of the underwater world Atlanta.

Anna thought for a while, and decided to have a little more time with the third princess.

The shortcoming of the third princess is that she doesn't know much about the land situation. No matter which country she is in, she is more cautious——

After all, races are different. In most cases, humans and their ships who stray into the waters of Atlanta will be destroyed, and if humans catch mermaids by chance, the consequences will be very dire.

But there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests, which is almost an eternal truth.

The three princesses know very well that their oceans have too many abundant materials, whether it is marine resources or others. Of course, this stone is a very high-value thing among all resources, in various senses.

It was precisely because of knowing this, and knowing that Anna was also a great lord with a territory, that the three princesses chose such a gift.

For example, pearls are not uncommon in the sea, but the pearls that can be used as crowns are naturally of high quality, but because they have too many ordinary pearls, they are not very rare.

For example, a large pearl that can cost five to six thousand gold coins on land can be said to be a sea oyster in their place. According to the "productivity" of an ordinary normal adult sea oyster, it is basically twenty or thirty oysters. It can produce five to ten.

That's a staggering number, not counting the relatively small, misshapen pearls that could be used for other purposes.

And after such a long period of hard work, they have been able to increase the output value to such a level.

For the third princess, the most valuable and suitable stepping stones she knows are magma stones besides pearls and seafood.

In fact, the magma stone is not entirely the best quality in terms of adding Poseidon-related attributes. This kind of black stone is actually more suitable for "enchanting" or "adding god attributes" to some dark elements and natural elements. Related to the natural element water, they are well aware of these properties.

But I didn't tell Anna Ming about this.

The three princesses didn't finish the whole story, but Anna can understand the situation through the system identification and some scientific investigations by herself.

At this time, she hadn't thought that this stone would be more suitable for the power of dark elements.

But after she heard the third princess say that the stone can "store" power, she thought of the red drop-shaped thing that was eaten by the kitten.

"What could it be?"

Anna thought distractedly.

The fireworks show gradually became lively.

Although the Undersea Kingdom does not have any other entertainment activities, and often holds some carnivals of a similar nature, there are not many times when the black fire can be used.

The black fire is different from the blue fire, and it has some different meanings to the underwater creatures. This is a more mysterious and awe-inspiring flame, not just as simple as fire.

Anna enjoyed the singing and dancing performance of the mermaid, accompanied by a group of fish dancers with different shapes but very beautiful.

Among other things, the voices of mermaids are really nice, each one is very charming, and each has its own characteristics. Although it cannot be described in words, the charm cannot be concealed.

Anna was almost dazzled.

She noticed that Princess Eri secretly asked the people below to open stronger wine and distribute it to everyone.

The lively and innocent princess blinked with her, and then she heard the third princess beside her laugh.

She brushed her soft and beautiful long hair, showed a relaxed smile, and turned sideways, whispering to Anna in a low voice.

"We have already lent our respective props and armor to Ellie." The third princess said.

"Actually, I don't agree with letting Ellie take risks."

"I understand." Anna nodded.

"But she insisted."

"Yes." The third princess nodded, she couldn't tell whether she was happy or unhappy, but she could only see the black fire reflected in the depths of her pupils, and those beautiful eyes became deeper and deeper.

"Don't worry," she said.

"Although I don't agree, I won't object. To be honest, I'm a relatively radical type who supports mermaids to participate in some adventure activities. Even women have their own strengths and can become very strong. .”

"When I was an adult, the first gift I got when I opened my eyes was from my father, and it was also a trident that I had been looking forward to for a long time. This is a weapon that completely fits my characteristics and was specially made for me. I’ve also had a run-in with it for a while.”

"But apart from the two older sisters in front, none of the younger sisters in the back know that I am such a maverick mermaid who has raised her arms."

"In everyone's opinion, even if the princess becomes the heir, she will only manage our ocean with her future husband." She snorted coldly, as if she wasn't really angry, but she wasn't very happy either. She just seemed to be talking calmly, and she didn't need Anna to comfort her at all.

"If there is a war or something else, when the king of the sea is a man, what everyone expects is to let him go out immediately, lead our people, to win victories one after another, and win the supreme victory on the battlefield. glory."

"But if it is a female ruler, although everyone recognizes it—even if this recognition of the throne is based on the recognition of Sea God's choice, they will never expect this female Sea King to lead the army or anything."

"They will even more hope that the female sea king will guard the rear safely, stay in the palace, and wait for her husband or more lovers, or generals under him, or other ordinary soldiers, to win her victory and bring Good news back."

"Of course, the most important thing is that she must have more children. If she is not satisfied with one husband, she can also have many lovers-this is consistent with any Neptune, but... "

"It's just that it is much more difficult for women to conceive their own children than men."

Anna smiled.

"Yes." The third princess raised her eyebrows, a little smile appeared on her heroic face, and immediately melted away the coldness, becoming more imposing and charming.

"Men only need to provide one shot, but women have to conceive for a long time. Of course, the good thing is that although mermaids are not easy to conceive, their condition after pregnancy is much better than that of humans. The body should be healthier and tougher, and it is generally not easy to miscarry .”

Anna nodded, knowing more about mermaids, but she knew that the third princess must be the one who is more independent among the mermaids in the royal family.

"Eri can hardly pick up the trident." She changed the subject again.

"Of course, although the trident is the most important weapon among our weapons, it is not absolute. Even without the trident, even with magic, you can still become a very powerful mermaid."

"Father has always been concerned about our safety. He has a high opinion of us, but he will not deliberately let us learn some fighting methods. Of course, he has never been stingy to arrange for people to teach us etiquette or singing and dancing."

"I guess you're the only one who learned to fight?" Anna asked tentatively.

"..." The third princess laughed again, but did not answer directly, "I am the one with the highest level, except for my brother."

"I got it."

"You're a strong competitor, I can feel that," she said, "and I'd like to go if I could."

"Then why..." Anna asked.

"But I can't leave the royal city at will." The third princess showed a little helplessness on her face.

"Because I am special enough, in the eyes of some old-fashioned mermaids, I am an eyesore and a sensitive existence. I don't intend to trigger some unnecessary conflicts at this time, although I know that it will happen sooner or later."

Anna understood, and felt that her temperament and this princess were actually very compatible, as if she recognized Anna in her heart. Anna also praised this special princess very much in her heart, and sincerely hoped that she would have a good result.

"Each of our princesses received blessings from their father when they were born."

"He created a special necklace for us. The ornaments of the necklace can be detached. Only when the six gemstones are put together, it will trigger the most powerful protection from the sea god."

"This is the second biggest guarantee for Aili's trip in my opinion."

"Second?" Anna looked at her.

"I believe that you can protect her well." The third princess looked at Anna.

"You are her greatest protection, a special and strongest protection."

Only then did Anna understand that the three princesses went around, even confessing their hearts, and even told a little about their secrets and the special protection given to Princess Eri. The purpose was first to frighten Anna, and second, to win her over.

The third princess is saying this sincerely, and she also entrusts Anna with such sincerity.

Anna is deeply touched by this sisterhood, although she is not as straightforward as other princesses.

"I understand." Anna nodded solemnly.

"I will also do my best to protect Princess Ellie."

"Bet my name." Anna took a slight breath.

"My name is Anastasia, and I am the eldest princess of the Kingdom of Lore."

"If successful, I hope to have further understanding and communication with you."

"Of course." The third princess agreed, which can be regarded as a kind of interest exchange to some extent, using current and future interests in exchange for protecting her sister.

Princess Eri's sincerity towards her elder brother cannot be faked, and the princesses and sisters are worried because she is always the youngest among them, and also the most innocent and worrying one, so they dare not take risks easily.

But the princess is an adult after all, and she will have her own way to go in the future, not to mention that she still wants to see and live on land.

She insisted so much this time that her sisters could only communicate with each other, and finally came up with a solution that was not very good but a compromise.

After spending the night, before the sun came out, everyone had successfully settled things.

The key is the ubiquitous creatures in the underwater world. They all respect mermaids very much, and they will definitely leak certain information. After the fireworks show, most of the creatures have fallen into a deep sleep in the second half of the night.

At this time, Anna and Princess Ellie are fully armed and ready.

"Let's go." Princess Eri put on her battle robe.

She looked a little strange, it was the first time she had armed herself so solemnly, whether it was arm guards or armor, even the dagger worn around her waist was a bit uncomfortable.

Seeing her appearance, Anna couldn't help laughing.

Still a child.
