The northern part of the Azure Sea——the Deep Sea Royal Court.
This is where the mermaids, the nominal rulers of the sea people, live.
Because their body structure is very similar to that of humans, the underwater cities they build are also similar to those of humans.
The Deep Sea Palace has a unique architectural style that blends elements of nature and art.
The main body of the city is made up of huge coral reefs and shells, which are cleverly carved into various shapes to form magnificent palaces, gorgeous towers and exquisite bridges.
The buildings emitted a soft glow, illuminating the entire city and making it stand out against the dark seabed.
The city's streets are spacious and clean, covered with fine sea sand.
Mermaids and members of some subordinate races shuttled back and forth in the streets, their tails flashing with colorful lights, like flowing rainbows.
The streets are lined with various exotic marine plants, which sway and add vitality to the city.
Mermaid's tail is a very precious magical material in human society.
It is said that using the scales on their tails to make props can have the effect of constructing illusions.
The meat on the tail can be used to refine fat, which can even achieve "eternal brightness".
However, after the mermaids retreated to the deep sea, their tails gradually became rare in human society. Perhaps only the kings of the seven kingdoms still had some in stock.
The center of the Deep Sea Court is a huge square, on which stands a magnificent statue depicting the ancestor of the mermaid clan.
She is also the first mermaid queen.
It was she who fought across the blue sea, successfully conquered all races, and became the queen of the ocean.
It’s a pity that the Queen of the Ocean has fallen.
The current mermaid queen is her granddaughter, Gwendolyn Wrath of Waves, the only remaining high-ranking dragon knight in the sea tribe.
The Wave Dragon he contracted is also the longest-existing, most-concepted, and oldest superior dragon.
The Wave Dragon is actually not a dragon that fully grasps the concept of “waves”.
Waves are only part of its concept.
The real concept that constitutes its existence is actually the concept of "ocean" in the geological sense.
Due to the movement of the earth, bumps and depressions appear in the flat area, and the unfathomable depression is the "sea".
This is the concept of "ocean" in the geological sense, and the Wave Dragon is the superior dragon born from this concept. It is also the eldest son of ocean consciousness and the first superior sea dragon species.
It can be said that whether in terms of combat power or status, the Wave Dragon is number one, even the Ocean Current Dragon is slightly inferior.
It was precisely because of the Wave Dragon that the mermaid clan was able to sit firmly on the throne for such a long time. Even if the lower races were dissatisfied, they could only vent their dissatisfaction verbally.
As for putting it into action, that is absolutely impossible.
But there are also disadvantages.
There is no hope for a country that suppresses with force.
Compared with the previous sea kingdom, the current kingdom doesn't seem prosperous at all except for the Deep Sea Royal Court.
However, the prosperity of the Deep Sea Royal Court is by no means false, because there is actually a special commercial street and trading square in this place.
The Trading Square is the square where the huge statue stands. Large and small stalls are set up in a regular pattern around the statue.
Mermaids and members of affiliated races trade various precious items here, such as pearls, gems, minerals, and magical items.
There is also a large garden on the edge of the city. It is said that it was specially opened by Gwendolyn. A large number of marine plants and some rare magical plants are planted in it.
There is also a mysterious altar in the garden. The mermaids have a vague idea of ancestor worship. They believe that when their ancestors die, they will turn into magical factors with independent consciousness, which will help their descendants at critical moments.
Whenever the warm current and the cold current meet, the mermaids will gather here to offer food and gifts to their ancestors, and chat with their "ancestors" floating in the air.
However, due to their extremely ignorant and vague ancestor worship ideas, the mermaids will not even recite the names of their ancestors, but simply use the concept of "ancestors" as a general term.
Nor are they afraid that their ancestors might fail to recognize these unfortunate descendants and thus make mistakes.
The Queen's bedroom.
At this moment, Gwendolen was lying lazily on the throne with her face in her hands.
Unlike the thrones of humans, the thrones of mermaids are more like a small bed.
At this moment, Gwendolyn was resting her azure tail on it and leaning her head on the armrest.
Although her manners were not very graceful, her beauty was breathtaking.
Gwendolyn has long hair as thick as seaweed, shining with a charming sea blue luster, and the ends of her hair gently brush over her shoulders to her waist.
Her skin was as white as pearl and emitted a soft glow, as breathtaking as the moonlight shining on the sea.
Her eyes are the same color as her hair, a deep sea blue, symbolizing the endless ocean and revealing wisdom and gentleness.
Her lips were as delicate and rosy as rose petals, and her slightly upturned mouth corners held a lazy smile.
It is worth mentioning that Gwendolen's ears are pointed, which is different from the common fins of mermaids. They are also embellished with earrings made of pearls and shells, adding an exotic marine style.
She was clothed in a magnificent robe made of the finest human silk and pearls, gleaming with dazzling light.
The pearls were mainly tributed by Foreign Minister Kovic.
The product of the Silver Blue Pearl Dragon he contracted is pearls, silver-blue pearls.
The collar and cuffs of this robe were trimmed with delicate lace, the work of the most skillful tailor of the mermaid clan.
She wore a golden belt around her waist, inlaid with various gemstones, which further highlighted her slender waist.
Next to Gwendolen was a crystal wand with a huge deep blue sapphire inlaid on the top, shining with a mysterious light.
"Does that human really want to establish a nation in the ocean?"
Gwendolyn's moving voice rang out, and the racial superiority of the mermaid clan was clearly revealed at this moment.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Over the past five years, the seven human kingdoms have all sent considerable support to Ocean Flow Island. This shows that they are determined to establish the Eighth Kingdom."
Kovik stood up. He was raised and trained by the sea people since he was a child.
Therefore, he is very loyal to the sea clan, and he must protect the interests of the sea clan in this matter.
“Damn it!”
Gwendolen sat up and slapped the armrest hard.
