The long voyage has finally come to an end, and the "Penglai" cruise ship has finally docked.
The coast is a desolate expanse of basalt, with lush green grasslands visible in the distance, and the gentle breeze whispers like a lover's breath.
A massive army of merfolk appeared out of nowhere on both sides of the ship, Prince Simrian commanding his men to bring out a water-blue frame with seaweed-dragged wheels from behind the chariot. The shore was relatively shallow, and whale warriors were swimming in the distance, occasionally glancing over.
Liu Zhen's side, Eve was placed in a large wooden box, the box was full of water, Eve's tail happily flapping, occasionally splashing up a wave.
"Sister!" The prince cried out anxiously.
"Please, calm down, Your Highness!" Liu Zhen interrupted his shouting, "Prince, please allow my crew to disembark first. Forgive my ignorance and rudeness, but I'm really worried that you and your Makura Stormsplitter mage might accidentally conjure up some storm magic, and then these few hundred people will all be done for."
"I'll sink your ship, and on the way I can sink a thousand ships like yours!" Prince Ximelian's indignation couldn't be concealed: "Your suspicious mind is almost as good as that of humans! Bimon."
"It's always better to be safe than sorry, if you don't mind, I'll have my crew leave first." Liu Zhen shook his hand, and Gu De began to board the plank, directing the boys and girls to carry big and small bags, running towards the shore. All of them wore straw hats, with the gauze on their hats fluttering like dandelions in the wind.
"Slave trader?" Ximilian scrutinized this seemingly honest-looking Bimon, unable to fathom how he could have a brain.
"A small business." Liu Zhen was taken aback and immediately blew it open: "I actually wanted to sign a contract with you, the Western Sea Country. As long as you allow me to pass through the sea, I can provide a large number of weapons and armor for you every year!"
"Armor and arms? Hmph... which country's arms and armor are allowed to be sold privately? The price of pure steel is equivalent to that of silver coins, don't think I don't know!" Prince Similian didn't believe it at all.
"By the way, I forgot to tell you that my father-in-law is the highest official in the northeastern province of Beimondong." Liu was boastful and his eyes didn't blink. Piggy's urine was pierced a little but he wasn't panicked.
"Really?" Ximilian indeed saw a beautiful fox tribe beauty who was suffocating him, walking past the step with a woman wearing a bamboo hat. Ximilian almost took action, but seeing that his sister was still in the other's hands, he had to hold back this foolish and impulsive heart again.
"My mine has five thousand dwarf slaves working day and night, the swords they make can cut through even the best Milanese armor like a hot knife through butter!" Liu was shaken, knowing that dwarves were the best blacksmiths, he started to wildly boast, anyway it's just stalling for time.
"Really?" Ximilian's heart moved, the biggest constraint of the Sea Clan was indeed weapons and armor. The helmets made from seaweed and coral at the bottom of the sea, and the fish bone-made weapons were not enough to meet the needs of war. Humans had always refused to fully open up arms trade, only allowing a few inferior weapons to enter the hands of the Sea Clan. Those inferior weapons would often rust quickly in seawater, making them difficult to use. If what this guy Mong said was true, it was indeed worth considering.
"It's truer than pearls!" Liu Zhensheng pointed to the sky and swore, "In front of the fair war god, we may be a bit rougher than Meng's weapons, but in terms of quality, we are absolutely not inferior to humans."
No merchant would voluntarily reveal his own shortcomings, and Prince Ximelian was hesitant to kill him after looking at his sturdy appearance.
"Your Excellency should know that on that day, I had a bit of a conflict with your sister, the noble Princess. How did I manage to kill so many of those shark knights? It was thanks to our weapons! Our weapons can easily tear through tough bodies, even the strong sea horse ridden by the Princess was pierced by one shot from my men!" Liu took advantage of the momentum and made eye contact with the people on the ship, signaling them to speed up.
"What terms do you want?" Prince Ximelian's heart was irrepressibly moved.
He decided to have a good talk with this Bimon, and getting high-quality weapons would be a great benefit for the Xiyase tribe. Their war with the Ares Sea Tribe outside Nalun Port was also ongoing, and if they had high-quality weapons, he believed that they could quickly sweep across the entire Aegean Sea region with an absolute advantage.
"I need..." Liu Zhenhong started a long speech, saying one sentence and then thinking for a while.
Seeing that there was only a fruit left on the boat, holding onto a large tortoise shell, stumbling towards the shore, Liu ended his quotation with a burst of laughter.
In the distance on a hill, a large crowd of people gazed at him as he quarreled with the prince.
"We can't accept this condition, can you concede a bit more?" Prince Wang was completely immersed in the excitement of the negotiation, and the foolishly low price offered by Bimeng had put him in a state of high arousal.
The prince suddenly thought that this was a lovely foolishness of Baimont.
"Is it expensive?" Liu Zhen was taken aback, scratching his ears and cheeks, but secretly laughing to himself: "Alright! I'll give Prince Wang ten Foxy song girls and dancers for free, hoping the prince won't haggle over the price anymore!"
"Good! Good!" The prince's eyes lit up: "I want the one from just now!"
"Does the one with the shell on her back want to go? She is my slave! If the prince wants, I'll give them both to you!" Liu said with a grand wave of his hand.
"Your generosity has left me speechless!" The prince's eyes moistened, this guy is really not bad at all! It's more than enough!
"I'll go ashore and call them over, you wait." Liu Zhenhong nodded with a silly expression, slowly walked up the gangway, and headed towards the shore, getting faster and faster until he was running.
"Your Highness!" A tactician with utmost skepticism asked Prince Simril: "When can the Fox tribe intermarry with the Pig tribe? They are in a master-vassal relationship! How can commoners possibly marry into nobility?"
"It's all over!" The prince also came to a sudden realization, "He was cheating me!"
"It's okay, my Awei is still here. I guess they were afraid we'd hurt them, so they played a trick and escaped! These weak little clowns actually abandoned their own companions!" The prince saw that his sister was still splashing water in the wooden box at the bow of the ship, and his heart felt at ease again.
As soon as the words fell, Avril in the water box gradually became blurred, and the shattered water element was like a smashed mirror, crystalline droplets falling, everything turned into bubbles.
"Go and see!" Prince Ximieran almost jumped up.
"There's only one box of water! Prince!" A rock-climbing octopus samurai poked out his shiny head from above.
"How can this Moonguard possibly create the princess's image using water elements? Is he a water-element mage?" Several storm mages looked at each other in dismay.
"Abominable, shameless, despicable, filthy creature!" The prince's eyes turned bloodshot as he slowly turned his head to look at the beastman who was frantically climbing up the mountain slope, and suddenly removed his helmet.
The prince's handsome and chiseled features were completely distorted, a deep blue and profound seal appeared in front of him, the originally calm and peaceful seaside suddenly stirred up a huge whirlpool, countless seawaters went mad, even the merfolk could hardly stand on their feet.
A boundless blue barrier brought countless surging waves of seawater, gradually rising into the sky, transforming into a gigantic wave ten zhang high that pounced towards Liu Zhensheng in the distance.
Liu Zhenhong was carrying Guo on his shoulder and dragging the turtle shell, continuing to run forward.
Helen, standing on the high bank, saw the ten-blade-high giant wave approaching Liu Zhen with hurricane-like speed, her pupils dilating to the extreme; the crest of the wave gradually turned into hundreds of horses composed of waves, their hooves sounding like thunder, frantically chasing after the slow-moving Liu Zhen.
A herd of horses transformed from water elements, their long manes fluttering up and down as they gallop, their divine and agile muscles trembling with each hoofbeat.
On the high coastline, the earth's skin was trembling under the hooves of a horse group composed of water elements. Standing on the hillside, Helen clearly saw the small stones at her feet rolling down the slope due to intense vibration.
Helen's hand clenched tightly around the Cong Yu, and suddenly felt a pain in her own hand, turned back to look.
It was Awei who grasped her hand tightly, wearing a bamboo hat and lifting the veil, tiptoeing anxiously as she watched Liu Zhensheng struggle against the turtle shell, rushing from the low-lying area to the high slope.
"I'm sorry..." Eveleyn noticed Helen staring at her and quickly let go of her hand, apologizing repeatedly.
"Your brother's 'Domain Boundary' is really impressive!" Helen saw that the place where the horses had galloped past was a mess, with the ship and the plants on the ground all broken and scattered, and wolf-like tracks everywhere.
"That's his 'Beast Wave Boundary', if not for chasing after Richard, he should have used the giant wave to transform into a giant whale and swallow him whole." Evie's eyes didn't leave Liu Zhen's face for even an instant.
The speed of the galloping horse was indeed astonishing, and even though Liu Zhen was holding onto the giant turtle shell, he was already running extremely fast, yet he was still caught up. At this point, they were only a few dozen feet away from the high ground.
A herd of horses galloping, emitting a huge sonic boom, pressed down on Liu Zhen, who was running. All that could be seen was a massive wave covering everything, and the empty plains all around responded with a loud tremor.
Everyone let out a cry of surprise, and many young boys and girls fell to the ground, their faces pale.
This magnificent scene is not something everyone has the chance to witness.
The huge wave made its final blow and then rushed forward for a distance of one arrow, before turning into a receding tide-like water flow, flowing down from the high slope.
The turf all around was full of shocking hoof prints, each one deep to half an inch, the huge hoof depressions were filled with backflowing water, and even some protruding basalt rocks had been trampled into cracked patterns.
Liu Zhenhong is still running, head down and running.
He didn't have a single drop of water on him, dry as if he had just run out of the desert.
Everyone was whispering to each other, pointing fingers.
Jade Cong was smiling with restraint.
Liu Zhenhong stopped in his tracks, turned around and waved at Prince Ximilian of the sea, Guoguo perched on his head, holding a sapphire in his arms, and Liu Zhenhong was also choked with sobs, waving his arm deeply.
This despicable beastman said a sentence that almost made the merfolk prince faint.
"Goodbye! My dear Ximilian Poseidon big uncle!!"
