The Song of the Mermaid: Shura Field 06
Since the Northern Territory sent out the invitation, people from all races have flocked to the Northern Territory.
Since the place where the disturbance occurred was in the chaotic capital of the Mi tribe, the meeting place was also set here.
It was autumn in October.
In the Northern Territory at this time of year, people have to wear thick clothes in the morning and evening to keep out the cold.
The fiery maple leaves formed a soft carpet on the ground.
"The city of chaos is just ahead..."
"Such a big city."
A tribe from the Southern Territory stopped in their tracks and gazed in amazement at the silver-black behemoth. It hardly looked like a city, but rather a kingdom of cold, silver metal.
"With the title of the leader of the four major races in the Northern Territory, and the courage to invite the top races from other regions, it's not surprising that such courage and determination allow them to possess such a territory."
"The Northern Territory was invaded by the Sky Crack only five years ago. Apart from the lack of people along the way, everything else has recovered well."
The leader of this small tribe was quite insightful, explaining, "In the past, the Northern Territory was a four-way scramble for resources, with fierce civil wars. But in recent years, there's been a rare show of mutual support. Under these circumstances, the Northern Territory is like a united force. It would be strange if it didn't recover quickly."
There are many races like them who, although not well-known, are unwilling to be left behind by the times and opportunities. When they meet, they travel together, exchange information with each other, and chat all the way.
"Aside from that... bully, we don't have any powerful tribes in the Southern Territory. If they go, they'll just be there to join in the fun. But I heard that Lan Huadis, yes, the Eastern Territory royal family, are coming too."
"Eh, didn't you receive any definite news?"
"Tsk, your information source is too outdated. There are quite a few people coming to Lan Huadis this time..."
"It's a strange thing. I counted and found that there is no king in Lanhuadis, nor in the Western Sea, and the City of Chaos has no king either. I don't know if they have collectively violated a taboo."
"What are you talking about? A young king has appeared in the Western Sea, but he's too young and probably won't be coming back this time. But the leader of the Chaos City is just sleeping. Keep your voice down before you pass through the city gate!"
The murmur of conversation died away.
The gate of the City of Chaos is just around the corner.
In order to welcome people from all tribes, the four city gates in the east, south, west and north were all opened, and guards were standing on the city walls.
Although they even laid carpets under the city gates to show the host's kindness and the welcoming team greeted them with smiles, they still couldn't hide their exceptionally strong physical fitness.
The number of people of each race allowed to enter the City of Chaos is limited, and those who bring extra people must stay outside.
The four top races in the Northern Territory jointly maintain order. They have experience in resisting disasters together in the City of Chaos, so it is easier for them to cooperate again.
At present, the leader of the City of Chaos is still asleep, and the leaders of the White Feather Tribe, the Beauty Snake Tribe, and the Red Horse Tribe are all tacitly guarding around the Central Royal City.
Some people were not convinced and wondered why most of the guards had to be left outside and only a hundred guards could go in. They wanted to unite and cause trouble.
In the end, there was no disturbance at all; everything was suppressed.
After all, the Northern Territory only stipulates that no more than a hundred people can be brought into the City of Chaos, but there is no restriction on the spiritual realm of these hundred people. If you are worried about the safety of their lives, you can just bring all these hundred people into the Void Realm.
The question is, does your group have it?
If your tribe has no strength and you want to come here to get a piece of the pie, just shut up and follow the instructions. Otherwise, get out or die. We don’t need any more of you.
Ninglie stood on the city wall and looked down.
In today's Chaos City, he is still in charge of external affairs, while Jie Ling is in charge of internal affairs. Naturally, there is no need for him to personally welcome these tribes. He came here because he received news that the mermaids from the Western Sea will arrive today.
If it were just the mermaids, there would be no need to be so nervous. The key is that their king is coming.
Jie Ling was still wondering, could it be that the old king of the mermaid tribe was still alive? She sent a letter to ask, but the letter said that the new king had come.
The kind that is less than two months old.
...It's outrageous.
Others all sent people who could make decisions to the City of Chaos, but the mermaids gave them the feeling that they were bringing their children on an autumn outing to the Northern Territory.
"Master Inspector Zuo, have they said when they'll arrive from the Eastern Region?"
The relationship between the East Region and the North Region is closer, after all, they have trade exchanges.
Ninglie: "They haven't decided among themselves who to send yet. It is said that..." It is said that a fight broke out, and it was so fierce that brothers were killing each other and blood and flesh were flying everywhere.
He coughed and said seriously, "I heard that he has to deal with matters in the region before coming here, so he will be a little late."
Guard: "Ah... As expected of the royal family of the Eastern Region."
Ninglie was about to say something when his nose suddenly twitched and he smelled a damp vapor. He looked up at the sky and said, "The person I'm waiting for has arrived."
He jumped down from the wall, dispersed the surrounding tribes, and cleared the welcoming path.
The city gate fell silent for a moment.
A few seconds later, deep blue water waves appeared out of thin air, and a group of nearly a thousand people suddenly appeared on the carpet.
The two leaders, an elderly and elegant old man and a handsome and flamboyant man, were Abra and Lorenzo.
Lorenzo was dragging a large shell on his right forearm.
Ning Lie had been forced by Jie Ling to do his homework, so he recognized their appearance and immediately stepped forward, bowing slightly. "Thank you for coming from afar, everyone, for your hard work."
Abra smiled and said, "You must be Lord Ninglie, right? The extra people we brought will be left outside the city, so please rest assured."
Ninglie said, "Thank you for your understanding. The accommodation for the mermaids in the city has been prepared. Please follow me. I heard that the noble Mermaid King has also arrived in the Chaos City." He looked around and hesitated, "I wonder where he is?"
Lorenzo's eyes fell on the shell on his right arm, a little worried, "It will be uncomfortable to be out of the sea water for too long. The king is still young, he will be comfortable in it."
Fierce: "..."
He secretly measured the size of the shell and thought it was indeed quite small.
When their young master first came, he was older than their king.
Ninglie didn't know what he remembered, his eyes dimmed, he lowered his eyes, nodded politely towards Beike, "Follow me."
The shell moved, revealing a small gap. A short little hand deep inside grabbed him as a greeting.
Nianlie was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, and his mood inexplicably improved.
He walked in with a hundred guards selected by the mermaid tribe.
Ning Ren peeked out from the shell.
He is in a very bad mood now.
This body is really a burden. It was fine at the beginning of the journey and he was very active in getting on with his journey. But halfway through, his body started to protest and his spirit became listless as well.
Abra and Lorenzo asked to carry him on the journey, but Ning Ren refused to agree. Fortunately, they prepared a shell for him to rest in, and he could conjure up a fish tail and sleep in it.
It is better to let the tribesmen carry the shells than to carry him himself!
The northern wind filtered through the cracks in the shell, revealing familiar streets and buildings on either side. It was still the same as I remembered, though a little colder and harder.
After the reconstruction of the City of Chaos, more emphasis was placed on solidity, defense and attack capabilities, with aesthetics taking a back seat.
A hand gently pressed on the shell, interrupting Ning Ren's thoughts. "King, the light is too strong. The effect of the medicine on your eyes is almost gone. It's best not to be exposed to the sunlight in the Northern Territory for the time being."
Ning Ren nodded.
The shell closed again.
Ninglie, who was walking in front, took them to the temporary residence of the mermaids.
The place where they and Lan Huadis were temporarily staying was near the palace of the Central Royal City. It had been rearranged to make it as suitable as possible for the mermaids to live in.
Ning Ren's room was in the middle, and on his left and right were naturally the two city lords.
Ning Lie escorted them there with great courtesy, but as they were leaving, he suddenly asked, "Noble King, can't your eyes be exposed to strong light? If it's serious, we can redecorate this place to block out all light."
Abra: "It's not serious. You'll be fine after a couple of days of getting used to it. Don't bother."
Upon hearing this, Nian Lie said no more, nodded, and left the temporary residence.
After he left, Lorenzo called a doctor, opened the shell, and changed the medicine in Ning Ren's eyes.
When this body grows bigger, its resistance to light will become stronger, and he won't have to apply ointment every now and then to let his eyes adapt to the light.
All in all, it's not very convenient.
While changing the dressing, Lorenzo pondered and asked, "Why did that guy from the City of Chaos just now say 'Eyes can't be exposed to bright light'? Does their leader have eye problems too?"
Abra said calmly, “No, I heard a little bit that there was a young master in the Chaos City of the Northern Territory five years ago. If he were alive today, he would probably be a teenager.
But unfortunately, because Tianxiao sacrificed himself, he was blind before his death..."
Lorenzo lamented: "It turned out to be like this."
Abra warned: "Whether it's true or not, don't mention it in front of others."
Lorenzo: "Their leader has also fallen asleep and hasn't woken up yet. There are strange phenomena happening within their tribe. When the time comes to make a decision, I don't know if the current leader can make it."
Abra: "You don't have to worry about these."
Lorenzo snorted.
The two of them spoke one by one. Ning Ren had already changed the medicine. After listening to them, he lay in the shell for a long time without moving.
Lorenzo: "King?"
Just when they thought the king was asleep, Ning Ren belatedly realized something and hummed, then transformed into two legs and jumped out of the shell.
He climbed onto the windowsill and pushed open the window.
The sunlight from outside streamed in, bringing with it the unique coolness of the Northern Territory.
Looking down from a high place, it was not as cold, hard and monotonous as he felt when he entered the city gate. It was October, the season when pink muhly grass bloomed.
In five years, these pink grass seeds had spread throughout the chaotic city. The dreamy, cloud-like color melted the city's coldness into a gentle warmth.
Occasionally a bit of grass fluff flies in the air.
Ning Ren stretched out his hand, and the grass fluff fell into his palm. With a light touch, it flew away, leaving only a slight itch.
There are still many races that have not arrived yet, and they need to stay here for a few days first.
Ning Ren finished his meal properly, and when night fell, he curled up into his shell and went to sleep. But in the second half of the night, the sleeping cub slowly sat up.
He put on his clothes, tied his hair, and relying on his high level of mental strength, he left the room quietly.
The mental energy stored along the way came in handy at this time.
A few flashes of silver light passed by, and Ning Ren appeared near the old stone of the Mi tribe's territory with familiarity.
Because all tribes were heading to the City of Chaos, the defenses here had become even tighter. Ning Ren hid behind a tree and looked towards the stone house.
There was only a little light in the stone house.
Ning Ren recognized the light. It was a small night pearl that had once been placed beside his bed and was always lit every night.
The remaining mental strength in his body could allow him to use space teleportation to enter the room, but he did not make any move.
After a long time, the silver light appeared on Ning Ren's body again, and he entered the stone house where time seemed to have stopped five years ago.
