Chapter 1100: Control?
Chapter 1100: Control?
"Your Majesty Wendy."
After a while, after listening to Miss Xianyu's account of the general situation of the past two days, the good man Leon couldn't help but frown.
"You mean... your grandfather is going to flip the eye of the sea and throw all the problematic ice in the tidal world into the real world?"
"Correct!"
Miss Salty Fish nodded and said:
"And that's not all. He has also joined forces with the leaders of the other two sea tribes, and is prepared to completely seal the eye of the sea after the reversal is over, regardless of the situation of the other sea tribes except the three sea tribes, and completely separate the entire tidal world from the real world!"
"That's it..."
Lyon frowned and said:
"I have a question that I don't understand, and I want to know more about it."
"You ask."
Miss Xianyu nodded, and secretly made up her mind that facing the last chance to stop her grandfather from doing whatever he wanted, she would tell him everything no matter what Leon asked.
"What exactly is the eye of the sea?"
"???"
Ah... Aren't you the director of the Cleanup Bureau? I even prepared myself mentally, but your question is too basic, isn't it?
Looking at Miss Salty Fish, who looked a little dazed and obviously didn't expect him to ask this question, Leon coughed dryly to cover it up, and then said sincerely:
"I don't have much contact with sea creatures. You and Lady Evangeline are the only two sea creatures I have ever seen. I know even less about other things, so I'm afraid you'll have to explain it in more detail."
"..."
Okay... Although the question asked is a bit too basic, since he is willing to ask this, it at least proves that he is willing to help, which is good news.
After trying to comfort herself in her heart, Miss Salty Fish took a deep breath and then explained:
"To put it simply, the Sea Eye is the source of the sea water. Every ocean in the world originates from its own Sea Eye."
Does every sea have its own eye?
After hearing this, Leon thought for a moment, then asked:
"If you say so, there should be at least dozens of sea eyes in the world? Then why is there only one left now?"
"This one……"
Miss Salted Fish hesitated for a moment when she heard this, and the mermaid lady who was eavesdropping from a distance responded loudly:
"It's okay Wendy, you don't have to cover up for the ancestors, just tell us what's going on."
"..."
Ok……
After sighing in her heart, Miss Salty Fish, who hadn't figured out what to say yet, could only speak:
"In the past, when the Ten Clan of the Great Court fought with your Cleansing Bureau for the present world, our Sea Clan was at a disadvantage because of our inferior strength..."
"It's not that I'm at a disadvantage, it's that I can't win at all."
After correcting Miss Salted Fish's words, the beautiful mermaid woman steered the clamshell boat and said nonchalantly:
"To say that we were badly defeated is a good thing. Your Cleanup Bureau is indeed terrifyingly powerful. You have defeated our ancestors badly several times.
I was afraid that if we pushed too hard, our great clan would be desperate and start destroying the real world. In the end, we didn't do anything extreme. Otherwise, Wendy and I would not even have the chance to be born."
"..."
"What do you see me doing?"
Looking at her daughter who was looking at her speechlessly, the beautiful mermaid blinked and said:
"If there was no fight, there was no fight. No matter how you try to cover it up, weren't our ancestors also driven into the sea?
Besides, we are not the only ones who like to record history, humans are the same. You can help to beautify it now, but if he finds out that it is wrong after checking it himself, wouldn’t that be even more embarrassing? "
"Mother!"
"No matter how many times you call me, I won't hit you."
The mermaid lady said indifferently:
“You just need to answer the question truthfully, Lord Leon. There’s no need to cover it up. I’m a pure-blooded sea creature and I don’t feel ashamed. You, a half-blood, are protecting me… I think you just lacked love when you were a child!”
"???"
No...how did you get involved in this?
In the eyes of Miss Xianyu who was a little frustrated, the mermaid woman sighed:
"It's my fault that I let you stay alone in the Kingdom of Seio for so long. You were always ostracized. After your bloodline awakened, someone finally recognized you. You now feel more connected to the sea tribe than I do. Even though that old antique has such a foul mouth, you're still willing to acknowledge him as your grandpa..."
"..."
I defended my ancestors because the Sea Clan took the initiative to invite the Cleanup Bureau to cooperate. We can't be too cheap on the surface, lest the lion asks for too much! Why are you bringing up family conflicts again?
"I see……"
After looking at the devastated Miss Xianyu with sympathy, he raised his hand and said:
"Then Majesty Wendy is... uh... quite filial? But should we finish talking about the sea eye first?"
"Yep!"
Annoyed by the mermaid's excessive frankness, Miss Salty Fish looked at Leon with gratitude again, and quickly followed the opportunity he offered, forcibly turning the topic back, and introduced at a very fast speed:
“Our ancestors of the sea tribe never defeated your Cleanup Bureau, and then took advantage of the time when you sent a large number of people to the star realm to search for the Outer Gods, and opened up most of the large oceans in the world and connected all the sea waters together.
Since then, although the names of the oceans remain the same, since all the large waters are interconnected, there is actually only one ocean, and the other sea eyes have gradually dried up and closed, leaving only the largest sea eye, the Central Sea. "
So it was you sea people who didn't follow the moral code and destroyed all the other sea eyes, right?
After understanding what Miss Salty Fish said, Leon frowned and asked:
"If this last sea eye is closed, will it have any impact on the world?"
"This...shouldn't be possible, right?"
Miss Xianyu heard this and said uncertainly:
“Although all the water in the ocean comes out of the sea eye, without the sea eye there would be no ocean today, but even if the sea eye is closed, the sea water that has already flowed out of the sea eye will not disappear and will remain the same.
Moreover, seawater itself has pressure, and the deeper the sea is, the greater the pressure. As long as the distance between the seaeye and the sea surface is more than three thousand meters, seawater will no longer continue to gush out due to the pressure of the surrounding seawater.
So although the sea eye has not been sealed, there has been no movement for a long time... Why do you think of asking this?" As she spoke, Miss Salted Fish suddenly raised her head and looked at Leon in doubt, and the words of the mermaid woman a few days ago emerged in her mind.
"If the Cleanup Bureau can't solve the problem of seafloor ice, in order to preserve the ocean in this world, will they throw the problematic ice layers on the seafloor in this world into the Tidal Realm, and then follow your grandfather's example to seal the sea eye?"
"nothing."
Although he didn’t know about Miss Salty Fish’s worries, he could see her suddenly agitated heart. After glancing at her, Leon answered directly and truthfully:
"I'm just considering how to treat your grandfather... If closing the Sea Eye doesn't have much impact on the human world, then your grandfather just doesn't want to help. It's his freedom to want to keep himself out of it, and I won't force him.
But if closing the sea eye would endanger the world and cause some serious consequences, then your grandfather's behavior would be equivalent to exchanging our safety for his own, and my way of solving this problem might be a little more drastic."
"No! No!"
After hearing what Leon said, Miss Salty Fish breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly explained:
“Although Grandpa is somewhat hostile… and wary of humans and your Cleanup Bureau, he is not willing to do such a thing.
His current idea is to keep the Tidal Realm clean, and then move all the people of the three sea tribes into it, and let the Twelve Kingdoms and the Cleanup Bureau solve the problem of seabed ice by themselves. He is not going to take this opportunity to attack you!"
"I see."
After carefully checking the hearts of Miss Salty Fish and her mother and confirming that this was most likely true, Leon nodded and stretched out his right hand seriously.
"Then I will accept the invitation to cooperate on the issue of seafloor ice in the name of Aquarius Director of the Cleanup Bureau. As for your grandfather's matter, as long as the situation is similar to what you said and he has no intention of destroying the present world, then I can also promise not to cause trouble for him... Oh, by the way!"
Recalling the time when Lord Taurus and his four people sent him away, Leon thought for a moment and added:
"Our bureau is very concerned about this incident. Director Scorpio and Director Cancer should have arrived at your Tide Realm yesterday. When you go there and meet them, you have to help me explain that it was you who took the initiative to invite me, and I didn't force you to take me there."
"no problem!"
Although Leon's words sounded a little "arrogant" and his request was strange, Miss Salted Fish couldn't help but show gratitude in his frank words and his promise not to cause trouble for Grandpa, but...
"How is this okay?!"
I don’t know what happened. Seeing that Leon had reached a consensus with Miss Salted Fish so quickly, the mermaid woman who was driving the boat in the distance seemed a little anxious. She actually let go of the pearl used to control the clamshell boat and rushed over. In the stunned eyes of Miss Salted Fish, she repeatedly denied:
"I don't agree! This is too light! No, no!"
"???"
Leon also didn't understand what she meant, and asked in confusion:
"What's too light?"
"Of course I was too gentle with that bastard old man!"
"???" x2
In the bewildered looks of Leon and Miss Salty Fish, the beautiful mermaid with a face full of bitterness and hatred gritted her teeth and said:
"Why are you so weak, the Cleanup Bureau? That old man is planning to throw all the ice from the Tide Realm into the real world. This is a provocation to your Cleanup Bureau! You have to send someone to deal with him severely!
Even if I don't beat him up, at the very least I have to make that old bastard abdicate and hand over the position of leader to someone like me who is friendly to humans!"
No??? What on earth are you going to do?
I didn’t expect the beautiful mermaid to do this suddenly. After receiving Leon’s surprised look of “Is your mother kidding me?”, Miss Salted Fish, who was so ashamed that she dug her toes on the ground, couldn’t help but say angrily:
"Mother! That's not what you told me before we came here! Didn't you say that although grandpa is annoying, he is still my grandpa and I can't let him get into trouble? Why are you still..."
"I didn't tell you that at the time. Would you agree to bring me here to see Lord Leon?"
"???"
So all those words before were lies? You were trying to reassure me? Why... that's not right! Why does this plot seem familiar? I treated you like my real mother, but you treated me like your grandpa?
"Mr. Leon!"
When Miss Salty Fish began to feel confused, the mermaid lady took the opportunity to speak seriously:
"I want to report this to your Cleanup Bureau! The current leader of the Liuwo lineage of the Three Sea Tribes is harboring evil intentions! Not only does that old man discriminate against other sea tribes that are not descendants of the Da Ting Miao, he has been treating them differently for a long time, and he even has bad intentions towards you humans!
Although he has not dared to do anything too extreme because he has no courage, you must not let him be a harmful element... Wuwuwu! Don't cover me! Today I must... Wuwuwu!"
"Shut up! Shut up now!"
She didn't expect that even though the negotiations were over, her mother would still do this. Miss Xianyu was so angry that tears came out of her eyes, and she desperately reached out to cover the mermaid's mouth.
The beautiful mermaid raised her head to dodge and continued to advise Leon:
"You guys in the Cleanup Bureau... um... you have to stand up! You are all the rulers of the world, how can you allow that old... um! You have to support a new leader who is pro-Cleanup Bureau! I think I am suitable!"
"You, you, you! Don't talk! Don't talk!!!"
"..."
You two are really...
The salty fish lady who nearly drowned herself in a wine barrel and took me to join the anti-robin alliance; the mermaid beauty who insisted that I deal with her father and supported her to the top;
Hmm... If you think about it carefully, there should be an old man who is so foul-mouthed that his own daughter is so angry that she wants to punish him. How come your family lives like a joke...
Looking at the mermaid mother and daughter fighting each other in front of him, Leon's mouth twitched involuntarily. He pulled them apart with great difficulty, and then said to the beautiful mermaid with a strange expression:
"Mrs. Evangeline, we are a peace-loving organization in the Cleanup Bureau. We generally do not interfere. Your request... is really not part of our job description..."
"ah?!!"
Seeing that Leon rejected her proposal, the mermaid lady was immediately disappointed. She immediately broke free from Miss Salty Fish's hand and asked through gritted teeth:
"What if I'm willing to marry Wendy to you?"
"???"
(*Д*)? !
彡(-_-;)彡
In the strangled silence in the clam boat, the beautiful mermaid raised her hand and patted her swollen chest hard, and promised with a proud look in her eyes:
"As long as you help me beat up that old man, I will agree to your relationship with Wendy!
And you don't have to worry about the reaction of the Cleanup Bureau. I've been lurking around that old bastard for so many years, and I have all the dirt on him! If you can find anything, it will be enough for you to find a reason to beat him up!"
"This... let's not do that, shall we?"
This was the first time he encountered such an out-of-line situation. After a moment of silence, Leon couldn’t bear to look at Miss Salted Fish’s expression. He turned his head away from the mermaid’s gaze and said:
"We in the Cleanup Bureau are very disciplined. We never use official duties to do personal things, and we cannot attack other forces at will in the name of solving abnormal incidents... um..."
When he said this, Leon couldn't help but pause slightly, recalling his past "business trips", and then he couldn't help but smacked his lips subconsciously.
Wait, am I being tricked?
