What did you do with the dice?

Rusalka won't refute it further. Taking credit depends on the situation. If he now says, "I did it with the power of the Light God," how would he explain where he got the power of the Light God? Oh, it's the power of the Apocalypse. This is a surefire way to prove he's the Messenger of the Apocalypse.

The sea people also agreed with this explanation. After all, Amelie is the living Amelie. It doesn’t matter if you don’t agree. She is alive anyway.

The second thing is more important. Nohat decided to cooperate with Amelie to govern the country together.

Rusalka's mind began to conjure up some incredible thoughts: (As if the fish in the sea also understand: nothing tastes better than dumplings, and nothing is more fun than my sister-in-law.)

Sanita: (Oh my goodness! I think it's good for the Sea People to have Nohat in charge. Amelie practices a policy of laissez-faire or peaceful governance in peacetime, which is indeed the best for the people as long as they don't suffer. However, considering the unknown intensity of the next invasion at the end, they will have to help us fight the war, so we can't do that during wartime.)

The third thing was to list out Weil's crimes one by one. When the non-mermans turned pale after hearing them, fearing that innocent people would be implicated, Amelie said that the existing system would not change because of Weil's personal reasons, and that individual behavior could not be elevated to the level of a racial collective. The prosperity of the Kingdom of Elegy depended on the efforts and cooperation of all races.

If it was Nohat who announced this, the non-merman people would definitely agree on the surface and start thinking about how to escape. However, Amelie's words were very convincing, and their reaction was not to pretend to accept, but to sincerely thank her for letting go of the past - even if this grudge had nothing to do with them.

The fourth thing is to announce that humans will be "differentiated". The relationship with the humans of Esterlen will not improve, but cooperation and diplomatic relations can be established with the humans of the Kingdom of Snidi.

Then the sea creatures may ask, since all the humans on land look the same, how can we distinguish which humans are from Esterlen and which are from Snidi?

In response to this, Sanitita said that when you pass through the portal and walk onto the mainland, make sure that all the people you see nearby are humans from Sinidi, who are friendly, cooperative, and do not oppress the sea people.

As for what is on the other side of the portal, he didn't elaborate on it. Don't ask. If you're wondering, it's a place where good people gather.

Rusalka didn't even need to guess. Since humans were so friendly and cooperative, it must be a very exciting and spectacular battlefield between humans and demons!

The fifth thing is that it was announced that Rushaka had passed the test of the sea god and obtained part of the inheritance, so his marriage contract with Vishas was established. In the future, after Amelie and Nohat abdicated, he would be the first foreign king of the Kingdom of Elegy.

Phoenix's tail froze, and then he immediately turned around, grabbed Vishas' throat, and a dagger appeared in his hand.

Ai Li is not worried because Ai Li is a human being, and Vishas is not worried because Vishas is not really a human being.

This statement might sound outrageous, but considering Rusalka's reputation for XP orientation in the Pearl Tear Territory, when three people make a tiger, everyone in the entire territory and the Silver City Mansion would think so. Even the perceptive Phoenix would naturally think so. After all, she looked at her own race, the elves she kept at home, and even the mermaid, so she naturally had no reason to doubt or oppose it.

Well, apart from the servants and maids, all the opposite sexes living in Rusalka's house, including those who were openly sent out to fight and those who were kept as "peers", were of different races. It was hard not to think that it was not his own problem.

Rusalka really had no way to refute this. This is how he viewed the rumors about him: (As the saying goes, when others think you have a problem, you'd better really do.)

Sanita: (Did you use this phrase here? You really don't learn good things, but instead learn bad things.)

When Phoenix tried to suffocate a fish by strangling its neck with her hands, Yu Yu said that she could breathe perfectly well. She just looked at the cat in confusion because she suddenly refused to let him touch her.

Rusalka didn't want to start the third round boss battle here, so she hurriedly called a halt, "Slow down! Stop, stop, stop! I've treated you two so badly. How could I set up such a vicious scheme here? Let me confirm, this place is called 'Love Warmth Palace' and not 'Hongmen Palace'? When did I ever say I wanted to marry Weishas?"

Nohat said as a matter of course: "Since the Sea God Leviasan has also recognized you, then no matter what race you are, we will recognize your identity. You might as well stay, marry Weishas, ​​and become the new king of the Kingdom of Elegy."

Amelie showed an expression of reluctance, but she did not object. For her, this might really be the best solution at the moment.

What else can we do? This guy is the true messenger of the end, a terrifying existence who is said to destroy the kingdom if he is not satisfied. It seems that he likes Vishas very much, so why not just get them to ascend the throne together.

It doesn't matter if he wants to wreak havoc on other countries, as long as the Kingdom of Elegy is not harmed. Besides, the Messenger of the End sounds very powerful. He is so successful even though he is wanted by the Twelve Gods. It sounds very good to have him be the king.

Sometimes Rusalka really doubted whether he really didn't act like he was speaking seriously, or if he had been deliberately abstracting things for too long and integrated them into life, causing him to be unaware of it. Why did these sea creatures seem to not understand what he was saying?

Moreover, after leaving the combat state, all his passive skills went into cooldown, and his tentacles and other things disappeared.

This time there really was no resurrection, and if he died he would be dead. If he stayed here, what if Amelie smashed a cup and five hundred giant shark axemen came out? Rusalka felt that it was not worth it - he would rather encounter the powerful enemy of the apostle with the Guided Explosion, and then sacrifice his life to collide with the opponent, and turn into gorgeous fireworks in the sky together. This can be regarded as a great sacrifice to save the world.

The actual captain of the Detonator, Sanita:?

Weishas did not reject Nohat's suggestion, but smiled and said: "I also want to marry the cat, I want to marry my mother, I want to marry everyone in the sea and live together~"

Rusalka pointed at Weishas and sighed: "Look, why not just forget it."

Nohat looked at Vishas, ​​who was still flapping her body happily there with Phoenix pinching her throat. After listening to her words, he was silent for a while: "Okay, indeed, we were just joking. Let's talk about it after we have been with humans for a while and let Vishas, ​​who finally woke up, get familiar with social common sense for a while."

Because Rusalka immediately and firmly expressed her attitude here, the crisis that almost caused Phoenix to make sashimi and break the cooperation between the two tribes was smoothly resolved.

But somehow, he felt that the death star above his head seemed to be brighter. Was it an illusion?

The last thing announced was that Vishas was different from before. What was here now was her real body, and she had completely merged with the power of the sea god and awakened. This was the most worthy thing to celebrate today. From today on, the Kingdom of Elegy would once again have a guardian with supreme power.

Nohat asked Vishas to swim to the front of the crowd, express her gratitude and say some auspicious words.

Vishas thought about it and put into practice what Rusalka had taught her: how to be approachable when one obtains something that others want but cannot.

She twisted her body into a strange pose, one finned leg bent against the other, one arm akimbo and the other resting on her head. She shouted, "The remains still love me, Visas! I've picked up that original napkin. My power has reached a new level. Water Fairy, Love Train! This country will be sheltered by eternal happiness! Soymilk~"

"Ha ha!"

In the atmosphere of the conference hall, which was like the frozen sea, only Rusalka was laughing contentedly.

Chapter 424 Your uncle is MVP!

As soon as the banquet was over, Sanita hurriedly took these "trophies" and called the mages back to the guided bomb to carry out modifications and charging work, while Rusalka was left alone to discuss with Amelie and others the arrangement of the portal and the ownership of Vishas.

When Rusalka proposed to take Visha back to the Pearl Tear Territory, Visha was of course very happy. Life in the Pearl Tear Territory was so comfortable. She could eat, drink and play every day. Cats, humans and elves took turns to play with her. She could go wherever she wanted. Occasionally, she could go on a long journey with Rusalka or Sanita in a carriage to do business. It was much more fun than staying in the Kingdom of Elegy.

She also wanted Amelie to join in the fun: "Then Mommy, come to Pearl Tears too."

After hearing Visha's request, Amelie was a little embarrassed. She naturally didn't want to be separated from Visha as soon as she was resurrected.

But if she were to just run off to the Pearl Tear Territory, she would be concerned about the Kingdom of Elegy and would want to stay in the country to see what changes had taken place during the hundred years she had been sleeping, and then see if she could do something with her own power.

What about letting Visha stay? She did think so, but she felt that Rusalka, a bad person, would definitely not agree. Besides, there was nothing she could do about her daughter's growing up and turning her elbows on land. She was afraid that if she made a suggestion, Visha would quarrel with her. The books said that children would run away from home when they reached their rebellious stage, and the thought of it was terrifying.

If Vishas hates herself, Vadasi↑!

Nohat: "Under the current circumstances, if we truly want to implement the changes discussed at the banquet, Amelie is indispensable. After all, we are not the only Kingdom of Elegy on the ocean. War is like a giant whale riding the waves. Once it starts swimming, it is difficult to turn back. Every detail determines whether it will run aground or continue to move forward."

Weishas didn't quite understand: "Why? I feel like Uncle alone is enough. Mom has been in the Kingdom of God for so long, and the Kingdom of Elegy is doing just fine. It's just as well without her~"

People may speak without restraint, but the reality is that Weishas' words did hurt Amelie a little.

Rusalka stepped in to smooth things over. "No, Weishas, ​​you can't say that. Judging by the conclusions without considering the process will alienate people! Look, for example, your uncle Nohat has worked diligently to develop the sea tribe over the past few decades. People's livelihoods, technology, and armaments have risen rapidly, making the Kingdom of Elegy a true overlord of the sea. And when I looked at the rating, it's 16.0. Admiration VP!"

"And your mother has been lying in a coffin for decades, doing nothing. Now, when the accounts are settled, her score is 3.0."

"Then you say, 'Oh, my mom didn't do anything. My mom is just a lazy winner!' Is that right?"

After hearing this, Weishas immediately shook her head: "This is not right."

Amelie's eyes suddenly lit up, and her expression was filled with joy. Before she could hug Vishas and give her a kiss, she heard her add, "Mom is a fish, not a dog, so she won by lying down."

This sentence astonished Rusalka. Vishas might be about to become a master. The talented player is really scary. It seems that her little mouth is smeared with honey. Didn’t you see that Amelie’s face next to you suddenly became as if she was about to lie back in the coffin?

Rusalka: "Uh... but that's not the case. Without Amelie's peaceful policy in the early stages, there would be no early resource accumulation. If we don't defend this jungle area, how can we develop, right? So we can't look at it that way. Everyone has their own contributions, so your mother is also indispensable. She can only stay in the sea and can't accompany you for the time being."

He looked at Weishas with some disappointment and changed the subject: "But it doesn't matter. Once the portal is successfully built, you can meet anytime. It will be built within a year and a half at the latest."

Amelie perked up. "Are you serious?"

It was understandable that Amelie found it hard to believe before. After all, the portal was just one-sided statement from Sanita. Although he might be the most powerful wizard in the world, it also meant that no one could verify his words. At least, no one had ever heard of such a powerful level of magic in the sea, and it was unknown whether the portal that he mentioned, which spanned the entire continent, could be built.

"That's definitely true. Believe me, our Pearl Tear Territory Archmage never lies."

There's no need to ask Sanita. Rusalka can certainly boast about its authenticity. If there's no way to strengthen the seal on the key in her hand, or even if there is a way, it might be useless. In the end, there's no need to brag. That means the demons will invade in a year and a half.

If the portal cannot be built before this, then there is no need to build the Sunny Tower. It's over!

Although Sanitta no longer believed in contracts, he still asked Rusalka, Nohat and Amelie to sign a mutual assistance agreement in the presence of Liviasan.

The content of the agreement is as follows: Nohat and Amelie are willing to represent the forces under the name of the Kingdom of Elegy and the forces under the name of Rusalka personally to sign a treaty of mutual assistance between the East and the West of the world, including but not limited to opening trade markets, tourism, military alliances, resource supply and other mutually beneficial cooperation contents, and when one party encounters major difficulties that cannot be resolved by itself, it is necessary to provide assistance as much as possible.

The Kingdom of Elegy unilaterally provided Sanita with the materials he requested, proactively contributed funds and manpower to build a bidirectional legion-level portal, and fulfilled its obligation to protect it. In exchange, Rusalka was required to comply with the following terms:

1. Take good care of and protect Weishas.

2. When getting along with Vishas, ​​Rusalka should try her best to meet Vishas's reasonable wishes.

3. Let Vishas integrate into society as much as possible.

4. When Weishas is in a bad mood, you need to make her happy.

5. Grant Weishas financial freedom in the human kingdom and provide her with a place to live.

6. Do not stop Visha from wanting to go home.

7. You may not embezzle Weishas’ personal property for any reason.

8. What Weishas said is right.

9.......

Rusalka watched as the words on the contract paper, relayed through Sanitita's voice transmission, became increasingly outrageous. The two mermaids' faces grew increasingly satisfied, while Phoenix's expression grew increasingly hostile. She hurriedly called out, "Slow down, Archmage Sanitita, what the hell are you talking about? If you keep writing this contract like this, I'll hang you from the Silver City flagpole to see how strong our nation is."

Nohat waved his hand, unconcerned with Rusalka's sincerity. "It's enough that the intention is conveyed. Our Kingdom of Elegy is a great nation in the sea, with tributes from all directions. We have nothing to lose from these little things of humankind."

What? You don’t even want human money and precious materials from the earth when you cooperate with us?

Is there such a good thing?

Then Sani Tower will not be polite. Rusalka will not add any trade tax exemptions or the like. At most, it will declare anti-slavery and prohibit the occurrence of trafficking, oppression and discrimination against the sea people in the territory.

Exchanging favors for material things, this business of making money out of nothing is too profitable.

Amelie: "That's it, anyway. Alas, my daughter is like the waves of the sea, gone forever. Often, you never know when you'll vanish into the sea. Rusalka, you're human after all. I don't have any other objections, but the lifespan of mermaids isn't long, only five or six hundred years. You must cherish her when she's at her most beautiful."

Amelie paused here, as if suddenly remembering something, and looked at Weishas: "Oh, yes, Naiad, are you really sure you want to live with humans? As far as I know, the strongest human wizard in the Age of Gods only lived for 400 years."

What’s going on? It’s the theory of longevity again. I, Rusalka Mermaid, will smash all of you who are talking about longevity to pieces!

"Aunt Amelie, don't worry. I'm very old. Besides, there's a kind of wave that actually has a unique scientific name: tsunami. Even though it recedes quickly, it can actually come back. It can even roll back half of my Pearly Tear Collar. Don't believe me? Look at this little tsunami Phoenix next to me..."

Rusalka was stabbed in the buttocks by Phoenix with a knife. Although the knife did not penetrate at all, he still had to pretend to be in pain, otherwise he would know what Lingchi meant when he returned.

After Sanita reviewed and signed the contract, it turned into a blue stream of light and sank into the bodies of everyone present. It was not known whether this contract was of any use or not, but it had become a bond at this moment, finally allowing everyone to be a little more honest and speak openly.

Rusalka first set an example of "telling the truth": "First of all, I am not the Messenger of the End."

Nohat didn't believe it. "We just signed the contract. You can just say it straight out. We don't want your reward anymore. Besides, Sea God Leviathan doesn't seem to care about this. We can't really figure out His thoughts."

Amelie didn't believe it either, and even Phoenix, who had been so frank beside her, was now a little skeptical about Rusalka's identity. After all, she had only heard of "Earth" from Rusalka, and sometimes Hydra would say to her privately, "Hey, sister, do you think that the end they are talking about may also come from that "Earth" plane?", which made Phoenix a little confused.

And now Hydra was pulling Phoenix to the side, and the two cats were whispering to each other and pointing at Rusalka, with an attitude that "this human cannot be trusted."

Where's the trust we promised each other? Why did it disappear from here?

"If you don't believe me, forget it. Let's change the subject. I'm actually very curious. Why was Esterlun so mean to you, but you were so tolerant at the time, Amelie?"

Amelie sighed. "When I passed the Sea God's test, I've forgotten what it was. I only remember He told me that from now on, the moment the Sea Clan joins a war with non-Sea Clan on Earth, the entire ocean will inevitably be dragged into the most brutal battlefield in history. And then, the sea will be dyed red with blood, corpses will be scattered across the ocean, and all living things will be devastated."

"So for thousands of years, even if I had to endure humiliation, all I could do was comfort my poor compatriots and work with my husband to prevent war between the sea tribes and the humans and dragons on land. Even if it meant sacrificing myself, I would do anything to prevent a war between the sea tribes and the dragon tribes. As long as that fateful turning point didn't come, I was willing to do anything."

Having said this, she looked at Nohat with a sense of loss. "But after my death, the war has already begun. There is no turning back. My husband also died in that battle. I am the only one left. I don't know what to do, but I still want to save and make up for it all. Maybe the prophecy of the sea god is not referring to the war after my death? But I know that this is just self-deception."

Rusalka felt this excuse was lame. "Then I'm confused. Why don't you tell me? Is your last name Toyokawa, or are you planning to form a girl band? If you have any problems or difficulties, can't you just lay them out there and explain them clearly? If you explain it clearly, like, 'I have an announcement: God tells me we must never fight, or we'll all be doomed,' wouldn't everyone understand?"

Amelie shook her head. "Lord Pearl Tear, you may not understand the gods' prophecies very well. Once I, the first person to learn of them, speak them out loud, they will become a certainty of the future. I can only silently choose to avoid this fate."

When Hydra, who was standing nearby, heard this, her ears perked up. She swam over and nodded, then reached out and touched Amelie, pretending to sympathize with her. "I understand you. I felt the same way when I got these eyes and left my sister."

Rusalka: Oh my god, this can help you two meet your soulmates?

But Nohat beside her snorted coldly, exposing Amelie's words: "Are you sure you haven't told anyone?"

Amelie was stunned. She lowered her head, touching the tips of her arm fins together. "Uh... I was a little stressed at the time, so I told my husband about it. But he was the only one I told. He swore he'd find a way to solve it and wouldn't tell anyone else. Shouldn't that be okay?"

Rusalka heard that this was not the end of it and kept it a secret, but it was not a secret at all, which made him roll his eyes speechlessly: "You Haki fish!"

Hydra immediately withdrew her hand. She felt as if her feelings had been tarnished. She could no longer empathize with him, for fear of being treated as an idiot.

To be honest, although Hydra failed in everything she did, her actions may have indeed changed Phoenix's predicted fate in a sense, causing her to "die" in the right place, Moon City. If it weren't for her efforts, Phoenix might really have died at the hands of Esdi, also known as Theresa.

If you ask Amelie to sacrifice herself for everyone, she will do it without hesitation. However, once she encounters something that requires her to make a big-picture decision, her mind suddenly becomes a mess and she becomes completely unhelpful. She has no governance ability at all.

But if you think about it carefully, the sea people have not experienced the three most famous war eras in history: the War of Faith, the War of Demons, and the War of Evil.

The god of change, Leviasan, starts out with a faith and territory that cannot be divided. He doesn't even have natural enemies or natural disasters. It can be said that as long as he doesn't commit suicide, he can live comfortably no matter what.

In a sense, Amelie did nothing, and during her reign, due to the power of the sea god in her, no family dared to attack the Kingdom of Elegy. In the eyes of the sea people who did not know the truth, it was a replica of the "Golden Tang Dynasty". How could it not be praised?

No matter how you think about it, it's much better than Nohat, who "launched wars and killed many of his fellow tribesmen during his tenure." In the context of her era, the sea people did not fight a single open war. Even the octopus people at the bottom of the contempt chain could not enter the city. They would not die if they found a gathering place to live outside. According to the sea people's idea of ​​"why kill if you don't eat" and the richness of the sea's resources, as long as they don't go to war, the possibility of not being able to survive or dying accidentally is really too low.

The only possible bad luck is that you can't resist your curiosity and are abducted to the land and killed by humans, but this is only a rare case. It is true that Estelon caught mermaids for experiments, but there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of mermaids in the sea. Estelon has probably only caught dozens of them since its establishment. The number of other sea creatures is magnified exponentially. From a macro perspective, it is insignificant under the large base number.

It was only because Nohat was plotted against by Weil that he won the prize, which made them seem irreconcilable. The number of mermaids who died in the internal strife among the sea tribes was estimated to be several thousand, which was far more than those killed by humans.

This made Rusalka sigh that heroes are made by the times. If someone like Amelie were in the Kingdom of Snidi, even if she was a small noble in the central area, she would probably have no descendants long ago.

This survival strategy of humans, which is to move forward or fall behind, has helped them become the world's land overlords from a macro perspective, and they can even stir up the oceans. It sounds really advanced.

But what about the microscopic individual? With a lifespan of a hundred years, most people lead mediocre lives, or even, like Rusalka, are swept away by the tide of events. If you don't choose progress and start a war, you'll be bullied and destroyed by your neighbor next door.

If Rusalka was an indigenous person, then he felt that he would be happier if he were reincarnated as a fish from Amelie's era.

I understand Amelie, but I can't be Amelie.

Regrets? No regrets.
