This was the time for the shift change in the water prison.
For fifteen minutes, there were no guards outside the cell.
So, Si Jin and Jiang Linyuan escaped from prison together, and following the direction from which the sigh came, they found a blood-soaked old sea lion.
His skin had been peeled off, leaving only his head, which remained intact.
Sealed inside a jar of chili water, his lips were pale, and he looked lifeless.
But he seemed to have long been accustomed to the pain, only that there was something he hadn't finished, and he was holding on to his last breath, sighing frequently.
The moment Jiang Linyuan saw the sea lion, his eyes involuntarily reddened.
"Dean..."
Isn't this the director of the welfare home he hasn't seen in a long time?
Why would this happen...?
The old sea lion raised its eyes, and its lifeless eyes suddenly lit up as if in a final burst of light:
"Xiao Yuan, you've finally come back here."
… …
In the following time, the old sea lion told Jiang Linyuan about its origins.
Jiang Linyuan's 100-day celebration coincided with the day of the Mu Nancheng mutiny.
He accepted the old leader's order and left with the little prince who was just over 100 days old.
He used his spiritual power to create legs and went to the human world to live in anonymity.
To cover his tracks, he built a welfare home and changed Mu Linyuan's name to Jiang Linyuan.
They carefully protected the rightful heir of the ocean royal family.
Si Jin set up a barrier that stopped time within the barrier.
So that the old sea lion and Jiang Linyuan... oh no, Mu Linyuan could have a proper conversation.
After learning the whole truth, Mu Linyuan remained silent for a full twenty minutes before his eyes regained their luster.
He took a deep breath and said, "I understand, Dean. I will take back everything that rightfully belongs to me in a fair and square manner."
Si Jin, with his hands tucked in his sleeves, added:
"You see, this is why I'm performing in the main hall."
Killing Mu Nancheng is too easy, too easy for you and me right now.
The difficulty lies in making him confess his crimes and be utterly disgraced before the entire city!
Mu Linyuan looked at his radiant lover and asked:
What do you want to do?
Si Jin chuckled: "What are the people of Atlantis most afraid of?"
Hunger? War? Energy shortage?
Mu Linyuan couldn't explain it, because he had been human for twenty-eight years and didn't understand mermaids.
But the old sea lion master could answer with ease: "Volcanic eruption."
"right."
Si Jin said, "Atlantis was originally a small island on land, but it was buried under the sea due to a volcanic eruption."
Therefore, in the legend of Atlantis, volcanoes are the most ferocious beasts.
Mermaids fear volcanoes, so they try to stay away from them as much as possible. An important mission of our sea god clan is to pray for blessings, asking the volcano god to protect all the mermaids.
At this point, Si Jin paused, her peach blossom eyes curving slightly, a deep and unfathomable conspiracy brewing within them:
"You said, if I activate the active volcano outside Atlantis City and then spread the news that the volcano is active because Munan City offended the sea god."
When that time comes, the fake trident in Munan City will be unable to quell the volcano, and in the midst of extreme panic, all the secrets will inevitably be exposed.
However, you will need to expend some spiritual energy to protect Atlantis.
Si Jin looked at Mu Linyuan and said regretfully:
"We live here after all. It's not worth ruining the homeland in the hearts of thousands of mermaids just for a piece of trash."
Mu Linyuan immediately nodded in agreement: "No problem!"
That night, the active volcano began spewing lava, burning the fertile fields outside the city.
It gradually spread into the city.
Meanwhile, the entire city of Atlantis was plunged into boundless fear...
