"You call them underwater people?"

Meng Yao thought of the modified Akira that had appeared earlier, and a bad feeling arose in his heart.

The elder in the inner room nodded. "They emerged from the sea eye and have the characteristics of deep-sea creatures. Calling them submarine people is probably accurate."

Meng Yao nodded, unsure whether to accept or not. He'd almost finished his meal during the conversation. The elder in the inner room had the dishes cleared away and stood up. "Now that we've had enough, why don't we go to our camp in Victorian and chat?"

He made an inviting gesture: "The Queen learned of your arrival and wanted to meet you two."

Meng Yao wiped his mouth and glanced at Dagu: "Is your queen asking for anything?"

The elder in the inner room did not answer, and everything remained silent.

Meng Yao pinched his chin and thought. It just so happened that he also wanted to meet the Queen of the Victorians, so he simply agreed.

There is limited underground space that is not flooded by sea water, and the camp is not far from the battlefield, just behind it.

The elder in the inner room left the underground sacred beast Shepatton and a group of people to guard the place, and then took Meng Yao and Dagu to the base camp.

More and more luminous particles were floating in the air, and the surroundings became brighter and brighter. When it was as bright as day, Meng Yao and his companions had already seen a simply built stone city in the distance.

"The Queen has been waiting inside for a long time."

Seeing Shi Cheng, the elder in the inner room wiped his sweat and greeted the two of them.

Entering the city, it was a desolate place, with injured underground people everywhere, gathered on both sides of the road, looking at Meng Yao and Dagu curiously.

Due to the authority of the elders in the inner room, the discussions were very quiet. Meng Yao and Dagu went straight in and arrived at the deepest house in the stone city.

The elder in the inner room straightened his clothes and knocked on the door: "Your Majesty, the person you are waiting for has arrived."

After saying that, he pushed open the door and waved to Meng Yao and Dagu.

Meng Yao took a step forward while observing his surroundings. He could see that the Victorians who remained underground were not having an easy time.

The invasion of the underwater people and the lack of supplies have put them in a difficult situation, and the Victory crystal on which they depend for survival has also been polluted.

This situation is extremely precarious.

The slightest disturbance will lead to destruction.

Thinking of this, Meng Yao had already seen the furnishings in the room clearly. The queen in white was sitting on a stone chair.

The other party also looked at him.

"Elder, please go out first."

The female king signaled to the elder in the inner room, who glanced at Meng Yao and the others. Although he was puzzled, he could only do as he was told, lowered his head and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.

Only the queen and Meng Yao were left in the hut.

"The Queen of the Underground?" Meng Yao raised his eyebrows and did not show respect like the other Victorians.

Dagu, on the other hand, stood at the door with a respectful look on his face.

Meng Yao intended to test the queen's attitude, but she did not show any displeasure. Instead, she smiled at his frivolity.

"Warriors of light, I can feel the power in you."

The queen stood up, holding the scepter. She looked at Meng Yao and said, "You seem to have the power of an Ultra Warrior... No, you seem to have some kind of spiritual curse on you."

Seeing through the Queen's gaze, the previously silent Axel suddenly cried out: "Can you sense me? You can even sense the curse on Meng Yao. Do you have a solution?"

"So it's Ultraman X. Sho once fought alongside you. Where's Daichi?"

Suddenly hearing the name of the earth again, Axel paused, but he finally adjusted his mood.

He explained in a humming voice: "I and the earth have separated. Let's not talk about this for now. Can you do anything about the curse?"

The Queen looked surprised, then immediately bowed to the X terminal with an apologetic look, "I'm sorry for being so abrupt."

"Regarding the curse, I can sense it is an ancient and chaotic being."

The Queen's eyes met Meng Yao's. "We'll have to try to see if the curse can be dispelled. What do you think, Your Excellency Meng Yao?"

Meng Yao was of course willing to do so. He asked the Queen, "How can I cooperate with you?"

The queen's white dress fluttered as she walked slowly to Meng Yao's front, spreading her five fingers and gently placing them on his forehead. "Just stand still, sir. Remember to relax your mind, so that I can give my full attention."

The queen's palm was very warm, and Meng Yao trembled, but then the cool feeling on his forehead made him relax unconsciously.

This is the Queen exerting her power.

A cool feeling spread from his forehead and slowly penetrated into Meng Yao's mind.

But suddenly——

"what!!"

Meng Yao shuddered as if he had been electrocuted, let out a scream, and collapsed to the ground.

The queen was also struck hard, staggering a few steps and falling to the ground.

Dagu half-knelt on the ground to support Meng Yao. His whole body was convulsing, his fingers were twisted, and his teeth were trembling.

When he opened his eyelids, he saw that Meng Yao's eyes had completely rolled up. What was even more terrifying was that among the whites of his eyes that were constantly being exposed, another blood-red pupil was gradually emerging.

"what happened?"

Dagu was frightened by these eyes and almost threw Meng Yao out, but he was an elite of the Victory Team after all, so he controlled his fear.

【The backlash of the curse! 】

Aix's voice rang out from Meng Yao's chest: [Those were simply Grimm's power leaking out, distorting reality.]

[Don't worry about that for now. Hurry up and find something for Meng Yao to bite on. Don't bite his tongue off!]

Dagu followed Aix's instructions and looked around the room, but there were only stone benches and tables here.

How could Meng Yao's mouth be stuffed?

In the end, Dagu had no choice but to take off his combat boots and stuff them in. Axe was so surprised that he almost turned into a mosaic: [This...]

"This is Victory Team special warfare gear, with steel plates on the soles!"

Dagu explained as he stuffed his shoes into his pockets.

After hurriedly stuffing her shoes into her shoes, the queen next to her coughed a few times to calm her breath, then immediately picked up the scepter and tapped Meng Yao on the forehead.

Clink, clink, clink——

There was a sound like the cry of a crow from hell, which gradually became smaller, and countless pupils fluttered in the air.

After a few seconds, the vision disappeared.

The queen collapsed to the ground, not even bothering to pick up her scepter. She was sweating all over. "It's okay. Just take out my shoes."

"I have suppressed the backlash of the curse."

Only then did Dagu lay Meng Yao flat in his arms and take back his shoes.

After a few minutes, Meng Yao regained consciousness. He pouted a few times and asked, "What's going on? Who stuffed spoiled beef into my mouth?"

When Meng Yao turned his head, he saw Dagu's big toe sticking out of his shoe.

Dagu hurriedly looked up at the roof. There were steel plates on the soles of his shoes.

But there is no toe cap!

[Just now, the curse backfired on you, just like a seizure.]

Ultraman X's words successfully drew Meng Yao's attention away from Dagu's big toe.

Meng Yao patted his forehead and felt a dull pain deep in his head.

The queen looked at Meng Yao, who had a confused expression on his face. "It seems my ability cannot help you remove the curse. The power of the one who cast the curse on you is unfathomable."

"If the Victory Crystal Core is still there, I might still have a way."
