449 The tragedy of Heron and Douglas!
Helen’s life was a life of true combat.
She was the only direct descendant of the XI Lun Empire, but to a certain extent, she was also an illegitimate daughter. Her mother was not married, but she gave birth to her, and she had an obvious Oriental mark on her body.
She had blonde hair, but her eyes clearly had the characteristics of an Easterner, which could not be hidden at all. Of course, she had never tried to hide it, so she was even more rejected by the northern nobles.
She had been to the capital of Xi Lun twice, but it had been very unpleasant each time, and she had been ridiculed. She was sick of the so-called noble etiquette, but her own etiquette was meticulous.
After her mother’s death, the palace of the Queen’s city could no longer hold her back, and she even wanted to escape.
She had no purpose at all. As long as she left this home without family, she would be fine. So, Helen began her wandering life.
She was a quiet and gentle woman, and her heart was filled with happiness. As she wandered the outside world, she longed to make friends, and even hoped to wander to the eastern world to find her father.
Of course, she didn’t have to go anymore because Jiang Li was dead. She had no family in this world.
She had been wandering around the entire southern part of the XI Lun Empire in disguise. She had no intention of listening to the People’s feelings, nor could she listen to the voices of the people. However, she was, after all, a direct descendant of Queen Helen, and a certain attribute had been engraved in her genes.
The more she walked, the more she thought. But the more he thought, the more he couldn’t get an answer.
She had left Queen’s city and the palace to find the meaning of her existence and the meaning of life.
However, as she traveled through the villages and towns, seeing countless slaves and the poor lives of countless vida tribesmen, a certain ideal in her body seemed to gradually awaken.
Moreover, she looked like a typical mixed-blood, and after hiding her identity and covering up her beautiful face, she was even more discriminated against. The xilun people looked at her as if she was of a lower race.
She started to think about whether people were born equal or not. This simple question almost made her go into a dead end, so she began to read a lot of books from her great-grandmother, Queen Helen, as well as her notes and her ruling strategy.
Then, she completely understood Empress Helen’s painstaking efforts. In the entire xilun Empire, white people still made up less than 20% of the total population after hundreds of years of reproduction, but they were indeed the absolute ruling class. As for the Weidas and other races, they made up 80% of the population. However, they had a low status and had almost no power.
80% of the population only owned less than 5% of the wealth, while 20% of the population occupied 100% of the power and more than 95% of the land and wealth.
It wasn’t impossible for the minority to rule over the majority. However, it meant that the ruling class needed to completely monopolize knowledge, wealth, land, and so on. In that case, the productivity of 80% of the population could not be released.
This meant that the Empire would not be able to progress, and the vast majority of the population would forever sink into ignorance and become gray livestock.
Under such circumstances, the XI Lun Empire would be in danger. Once an external force was strong enough, the entire Empire would fall apart.
Therefore, Empress Helen began a reform and implemented a system of racial integration and racial tolerance. It was imperative to free the slaves, but she did not give the people of the Vida great power all at once. Instead, she let them go bit by bit. The key was to facilitate the marriage between the people of xilun and the people of the Vida. In this way, after a few hundred years, there would be no more xilun people or people of the Vida race. Everyone would be one race.
Furthermore, while the xilun people were still very powerful and occupied an absolute dominant position, they could accommodate and assimilate the majority.
Otherwise, it would be too late by the time the Vida tribesmen awakened and became stronger. The entire Empire would be crushed by the opposition between the two races. After all, the xilun people were foreign invaders.
After Princess Helen went deep into the Empire’s South, she found that many of the nobles here already had the blood of the Vida race. They had the looks and names of xilun people, but more than 100 years ago, they began to marry the high-level members of the Vida race under the call of the Queen.
And now, these Southern nobles with impure bloodlines were being suppressed and ostracized by the entire Empire’s nobles. The second xilun Empire had fallen apart, and the throne had been missing for decades. However, this was good news for the entire South, because they no longer needed to be suppressed by the North of the Empire and could develop freely.
Therefore, after the collapse of the second Empire, the entire South developed and prospered. In the past, in the second Empire, for a long time, the taxes in the South were more than double that of the North, and there were almost no Southern nobles in the Empire’s cabinet.
Of course, although some aristocrats were in the South, they were also regarded as Northern aristocrats because they opposed the policy of racial integration, such as the Russo family in the blue wave province.
As Helen traveled through the South, she realized that countless people missed her and were grateful for her policy of racial integration. This allowed many of the Vida tribesmen to become middle-level officials, own large territories, and become rich in business.
Of course, Empress Helen of the second xilun Empire had passed away more than 100 years ago, so the so-called nostalgia was more of yearning. The nobles of the South, as well as countless higher-ups of the Vida race, all desired to have another Queen Helen so that they could continue with their policy of racial tolerance. Only then would their status and wealth be preserved.
After Empress Helen’s death, the XI Lun Empire’s policies had reversed. The intermarriage between xilun and the Vida had been stopped, and the racial conflict had gradually begun. The slave trade, which had been banned, had also been revived.
Princess Helen was caught in a very contradictory mood. First of all, she was very disgusted with politics. She felt that it was a very hypocritical and disgusting thing. However, she also had a sense of mission. She felt that the fruits of development in the South of the Empire could not be destroyed, and the xilun Empire could not return to the previous racial confrontation. Especially the evil thing like the slave trade must be completely banned.
With this kind of painful thinking, her life was even more lost. As a result, she went on an adventure as if she was torturing herself. She went to the most dangerous place. It didn’t seem like an adventure, but more like suicide.
However, her bloodline was too high. It was the Golden bloodline.
Taking risks meant fighting and killing. She had been fighting for the past ten years. She had fought with humans and the strange creatures of the primordial RuinWorld. She had seen countless evil things and learned countless secrets.
She had been to all the places that almost no one had been to. She had explored all the fallen cities and ruins of Fallen Empires in the past two thousand years.
With the Golden bloodline, she was fighting every day. She became stronger and stronger, so strong that she didn’t even know how strong she was.
Therefore, she was ready to start the craziest adventure, to go to the World’s forbidden land.
Currently, there were three major Forbidden Lands in the known world: the northernmost continent, the great Devil’s Triangle, and the great desert of death.
Of course, The Lost Country was also one of them, but it was not a forbidden place. Instead, it was a treasure trove, so Princess Helen ruled it out first. She didn’t like treasure at all.
When she heard that soran had gone to the northernmost continent, she didn’t want to go. She hated to have any connection with the xilun royal family in the North. The great desert of death was too far away, so she chose the great Devil’s Triangle.
And then, she left. No ship was willing to take her there, so she drove the sailboat alone.
However, her sailboat was immediately shattered by lightning as soon as it entered the black fog of the great Devil’s Triangle. She jumped into the sea alone and swam a few hundred miles in the midst of countless lightning and storms. She passed through the thick fog and entered the New World inside the great Devil’s Triangle.
After that, she stayed inside for many years, exploring and fighting.
Towards the end, it simply became a battle. Killing, killing, killing.
Before she found the ancient horn, she had fought her way out of being surrounded by countless sea monsters. The more she killed, the more exhilarated she became. The deeper she went into the ruins, the stronger the sea demons she encountered became. Every day, the moment she opened her eyes, she was out fighting. She almost forgot about the time.
He slept for four hours a day, and the remaining twenty hours were all used for fighting.
If she had not met Jin Mulan and Shen Lang’s family, Princess Helen would have continued to stay in the Devil’s Triangle and be so happy that she would not think of xilun. She felt that she had not cleared the game yet. There were still deep ruins that she had not explored, and there were still many powerful sea monsters that she had not encountered.
However, everything changed after he had his family. Originally, Princess Helen could fight without any worries. However, after meeting Shen Lang’s family, she was overjoyed.
She actually had relatives in this world. She really had relatives? She actually had a younger brother.
Moreover, her brother’s family had barged into the Devil’s Triangle, including a few cute little babies. She simply couldn’t bear to part with them. They were her nephews and nieces.
Therefore, the heaven-defying warrior Helen became Helen’s nanny. She had to help Mulan’s family settle down in the great demon triangle. She also had to build a defense line, train Nirvana Warriors, open up farmland, and bring people to harvest in the sea.
There were countless sea monsters in the Devil’s Triangle. Helen still needed to fight and clear out the monsters everywhere. She also had to build a safe zone with the nightmare stone and arrange all her family members to stay in this safe zone to ensure that there were no sea monsters within a few thousand meters of Shen Lang’s family.
Then, she found out that her brother, Shen lang, was originally nearby, just outside the great Devil’s Triangle. He should have come in. However, after waiting for three months, she still did not see her brother, Shen lang.
At that moment, she had settled Shen Lang’s family and passed the ancient horn to Xue Yin. She left the Devil’s Triangle alone to look for Shen lang.
In the end, she realized that she could enter the great demon triangle, but she could not leave.
She tried countless times but could not get out at all. Even if she had survived countless lightning bolts and hurricanes, no matter how long she walked in the dark fog, she would eventually return to her original place and never get out.
She had been swept up by tornadoes more than ten times and thrown back into the great demon triangle, but she was still safe and sound.
So she continued to explore and found an underwater passage under a pyramid. It was so deep that she couldn’t see the bottom. Although the air was thin, it wasn’t completely suffocating. It was just that the underwater passage was too long, and she didn’t know where it led to.
Princess Helen was good at trusting her intuition, so she went into the passage without saying anything.
This journey took a few months, a total of ten to twenty thousand li. With her speed, it would not take her a few months to travel 20000 miles. However, this underwater passage was full of sea monsters, and they were very powerful.
That wasn’t all. Many parts of the secret passage were broken. Not only was there a suffocating area, but there were also areas of poisonous gas and magma. There were even two explosions of ancient energy cores.
If it were someone else, they would have died countless times, but she had survived just like that. Therefore, she was definitely worthy of the nickname, heaven-defying Helen.
........................
Helen rushed out of the sea, took out an ancient jade pot, and poured seawater into it. Soon, the seawater in the pot turned into freshwater.
She had obtained this treasure in some ancient ruins. She had obtained countless treasures along the way, but she had thrown away most of them, leaving only this item behind. This Jade pot could turn seawater into fresh water. This was the most precious thing she had when she was adventuring in the sea. If it could keep her alive, even the most powerful person would die without fresh water to drink.
He first took a sip of water, then casually caught two fish, cut them into thin slices, and ate them.
Then, he opened the base of the ancient jeweled Jade pot. There was snow-white salt inside. He used the salt to brush his teeth. Then, he took off his clothes and took a bath in the sea. Finally, he washed his body with fresh water and put on new clothes.
After getting clean and refreshed, Princess Helen began to explore this mysterious place.
This place had the same architectural style as the great Devil’s Triangle, and there was even an underwater passage. What did this prove?
It proved that these two places belonged to the same Empire in the ancient world. Along the way, many of the undersea passages collapsed, and Helen had to crawl out of the mountain-like ruins. Sometimes, she had to walk on the seabed and breathe on the surface of the sea until she found a new entrance to the undersea passage.
When she passed by the bottom of the sea, Helen found that many underwater cities had the same architectural style. So she concluded that this should be the legendary Lost Kingdom. It used to belong to the same Empire as the great demon triangle, but then there were drastic changes. The land collapsed and fell silent to the bottom of the sea, and the Empire was destroyed.
However, The Lost Empire only had a few thousand years of history. It did not belong to the ancient civilization.
Princess Helen quickly determined that The Lost Empire thousands of years ago was probably a new Lost Empire, built on the ruins of the old Lost Empire.
Helen looked up and saw the pyramid on the top of the big snow Mountain and the huge light on it.
To explore! This was Helen’s instinctive reaction. No matter what mysterious place she saw, no matter how dangerous it was, she had to go.
However, he gave up on the idea after some thought. It was more important to leave this place and look for Shen lang.
And at this moment.
boom boom boom boom boom!
A loud noise came from a place hundreds of miles away, and then a huge ball of fire rushed into the sky.
The entire ground was shaking, and even the sea surface began to roar.
This was a rare sight for most people, but Princess Helen was used to it. The ancient energy core had exploded.
But what would happen if the ancient energy core exploded? Princess Helen couldn’t help but run toward the east like a gust of wind.
..............................
The main fleet of the skeleton party.
Douglas. Xilun was satisfied. From now on, the skeleton fleet would belong to him. This was the number one fleet in the Western world.
Adolf had failed to conquer the Amazon tribe, but Douglas had succeeded.
With the skeleton fleet, he would be unrivaled in the seas of the Western world. The Navy Marshal of the third xilun Empire would definitely be him. He was the Imperial Prince, cabinet minister, and also the Navy Marshal.
In this soon-to-be Third Empire of xilun, his position would be extremely high. He would be second only to one person and above tens of thousands of people.
Adolf was still too arrogant and careless. That was why he lost to Shen lang when it came to conquering the Amazon tribe. However, Douglas was different. He attacked first and completely cut off Shen Lang’s escape route.
The next step was to successfully bring the skeleton party fleet out of the cursed Sea area and return to the xilun ocean.
Your Highness, we have reached the critical point of the cursed sea. Hai Shu said.
Douglas. alright! xilun nodded with a charming smile on his face.
How to determine the critical point of this cursed Sea area was the island in front. This was because there was not a single island in the entire 1000-mile Sea area of the cursed Sea area. It was surrounded by seawater as if it had been copied and pasted.
This Island was very strange. On the surface, it looked like a normal Island, but if you looked at its reflection, you would see a woman with a human face and a snake body. As the sea shook, it seemed to be swimming, as if it was alive.
When he saw the human-faced snake-bodied Island, he knew that he had entered the cursed sea.
Douglas. let’s just wait quietly, ” xilun said. we’ll wait for that earth-shattering explosion.
The entire fleet was lined up neatly at the critical line of the cursed sea. As soon as the strange energy field of this sea was broken, they would immediately rush out of this sea and completely escape.
Countless pirates of the skeleton party held their breaths and even put their hands together.
They had tried to escape this place countless times, but in the end, they returned to their starting point and ended up in despair. Their spirits were almost destroyed.
But this time, it was different. His Highness Douglas had created so many miracles, and he would definitely be able to save everyone.
Some of the Pirates couldn’t even bear the pressure in their hearts and began to kneel on the ground and pray to the sea god and the sky god.
At this moment, a thought appeared in many people’s minds. If they had followed Shen lang instead of Douglas, what would have happened?
“Your Highness,” hai Shu said, her voice filled with anxiety.
don’t worry, ” Douglas said with a smile. everything is going according to plan.
“Will the despicable Shen lang ruin our plan?” hai Shu asked.
even if he had the idea, ” Douglas said, ” he doesn’t have the ability to do so. He has no idea which ancient energy core I detonated. Besides, he can’t go to the bottom of the sea with his ability.”
that’s true, ” hai Shu said. I’ve never seen a man more useless than him.
it’s coming, ” Douglas said. it’s coming!
This Xi Lun Royal had a pearl of wisdom in his hand. He had a well-thought-out plan, and then he counted down in his heart.
“Ten, nine, eight, seven luminaries ring”
Then, he jumped onto a platform on the flagship’s mast and looked down at the entire skeleton party fleet from a height of tens of meters.
Tens of thousands of Pirates looked up at Douglas. The sun was shining on him, making him look like he was covered in a layer of golden light.
It was time for Douglas to perform a miracle.
brothers of the skeleton gang, ” Douglas shouted, ” we’re about to witness a miracle!
“I said I would save you, and I will do it.”
five, four, three, two, one.
“I’m coming, come on, please protect me, sea god!”
Douglas calculated the time and suddenly opened his arms.
And at this moment!
“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”
A series of earth-shaking explosions occurred.
It wasn’t just one ancient energy core that exploded, but three in a row, extending for hundreds of miles.
Everybody clearly saw that, as Douglas ‘arms soared into the sky, a shocking fireball rose from the bottom of the ocean and rose into the sky.
They had never seen such a huge fireball before. It had emerged from the bottom of the sea and rushed thousands of meters into the sky. It was simply a miracle.
Then there was an underwater earthquake, followed by a small tsunami, like ten thousand horses galloping.
It was truly an earth-shattering scene, as if it was directed by Douglas himself. He was really like a god.
Everybody was horrified. The shocking fireball and the surging waves were the background of Douglas ‘performance.
At the same time, the strange Island with a human face and a snake body disappeared.
the island has disappeared, the critical line of the cursed sea has disappeared, and the strange energy field has disappeared.
“We’re saved, we’re saved!”
His Highness Douglas succeeded!
When countless pirates discovered this, they cried tears of joy, hugged each other, and madly knocked on their weapons.
I’m God! Douglas shouted, ” at this moment, I’m God! I’m God! My brothers of the skeleton gang, do you worship me? Are you guys loyal to me?”
The ecstatic Pirates were so shocked that their hair stood on end. They raised their arms and shouted, ” “Long live His Highness Douglas, long live! Worship Your Highness Douglas!”
Hai kun pointed at Douglas and roared, ” “I know that many of you have wavered and wanted to believe in Shen lang. But now it has been proven that His Highness Douglas is the real sea God’s possession, and he is the real Savior.”
“As for that pretty boy, Shen lang, he’s just a despicable liar. Do you think he really scared off the sea monster? That was not the case, because he was cursed. Anyone and anything that got close to him would be destroyed. He’s an inauspicious being, which is why he was expelled from the eastern world and fled to the Western world.”
“I’m really sad for the 7000 brothers. His Highness Douglas is taking us home. However, the 7000 people were deceived by the despicable Shen lang and could only wait for death in the cursed land.”
“God damn Shen lang, despicable Shen lang, let us mourn for our 7000 brothers. This cunning liar should go to hell and be dismembered into a thousand pieces.”
God, please send down a bolt of lightning to kill that liar. He was the one who almost destroyed the fate of the skeleton gang.
Douglas. Theron put down his hands and said slowly, ” “Brothers of the skeleton gang, are you willing to pledge your loyalty to me?”
“I’m willing, I’m willing!”
pledge your loyalty to the great prince Douglas.
put the cunning liar Shen lang aside, step on him and spit on him. He’s not even worthy to clean His Highness Douglas ‘shoes.
Douglas was very satisfied with the result of this miracle, especially with the performance of the hundreds of shills.
brothers of the skeleton gang, as your King, I will take you home, home!
“Go home, go home!”
long live Douglas! Long live the Savior! The skeleton gang will always belong to His Highness Douglas! Hai Shu raised her arms and shouted.
“Let’s go home!”
With Douglas’s order, the entire skeleton party fleet sailed toward the North.
The further north they sailed, the more surprised everyone was, because the scenery had completely changed. Previously, the cursed Sea area was filled with lonely seawater without any islands. Now, there was an Island every 100 miles. It was lush and full of green trees and red flowers. It was filled with the aura of life.
We’ve succeeded, we’ve succeeded. We’ve truly escaped the cursed waters.
Then, the Pirates of the skeleton gang were in a revelry along the way. Countless people cheered for Douglas.
He was eager to return home!
They had finally left that ghostly place. They could finally go home. They could go back to the skeleton Island to see their children, return to the human world, return to the sea that they were familiar with, and finally leave hell.
All the way north, all the way north!
Five days had passed, ten days had passed, thirteen days had passed.
Along the way, the ocean scenery was as beautiful as a painting, completely different from the cursed Sea area.
“We should be reaching the XI Lun Empire soon.”
“What city should we see first?”
“We’re almost home, it should be soon.”
After calculating the distance, they should be reaching the continent of Xi Lun Empire soon. Countless people were eagerly waiting.
All seafarers yearned for land, especially the Pirates of the skeleton gang. They had been trapped in the cursed land for more than ten years, and their hearts seemed to have flown to land and to their homes.
Some people couldn’t help but stand at the highest point of the mast, because they could see the land the earliest.
Suddenly, someone shouted,”we’re here!” My brothers of the skeleton gang, I see land, I see the land of the XI Lun Empire. We are home.”
we’ve been wandering outside for more than ten years, and we’ve been imprisoned for more than ten years. Now, we’re finally home.
Then, countless people saw land. It was night time, so why could he see land? Because the sea water reflected light, only the land was dark, and there were countless lights on the land.
hahaha, we’ve reached land. We’re home.
we’ve arrived at the XI Lun Empire.
long live His Highness Douglas! He saved us and brought us home!
pledge loyalty to His Highness Douglas.
Countless pirates cheered and hugged each other. They cried in excitement.
He was getting closer and closer to the land. All the Pirates of the skeleton party saw that there were countless people welcoming them on the shore of the city. All of them were holding torches, which looked like stars.
“Your Highness, did you arrange this?” Hai Shu said excitedly.
Douglas. yes, ” xilun said. I even calculated the time to land. This is the southernmost city of the xilun dynasty, White Harbor! I’ve sent people here to welcome you. You’re all heroes, and you deserve to be treated like heroes.”
Then, Douglas shouted, ” brothers of the skeleton gang, your expedition is over. Your adventure is over. We’re triumphant. We’re home.
The skeleton gang cheered like a tsunami.
long live His Highness Douglas! Long live His Highness!
brothers of the skeleton gang, ” Douglas shouted, ” get ready to land and enter the city!
At this time, the people on land seemed to be in an uproar. They also shouted and waved the torches in their hands, as if they were shouting, ” “Welcome home, welcome home.”
At this moment, the Pirates of the skeleton fleet couldn’t stand it anymore. They jumped off the ships and swam directly to the land.
We’re finally home. Thank the great prince Douglas for saving us and taking us out of the cursed Sea area.
Countless pirates of the skeleton party swam hundreds of meters in the shallow sea and then rushed to the land, rushing to the welcoming crowd above.
And Douglas. Like a god, xilun was carried onto land by countless pirates. From now on, he would be the king of the skeleton gang.
Douglas. Xilun was escorted ashore by countless people, feeling extremely proud.
From now on, this invincible skeleton fleet belongs to me. Shen lang, you’re just a clown. No matter how good your performance is, it’s useless. You can stay in the ruins of The Lost Country and die there.
There’s no more food, so you can just die there. Those 7,000 Pirates who are loyal to you feel that they have been deceived and will definitely tear you to pieces.
Shen lang, you’re nothing compared to me. I’m the Savior of the skeleton gang.
However,
The next second, the Pirates who rushed to land were stunned.
Why did the people who were welcoming them on land look so familiar? Where had he seen it before?
That’s right, this bi an was the 7000 pirate brothers that were left in the ruins of The Lost Country.
Also, wasn’t the person in the middle Shen lang? There was also Jack Dunn and Hila.
Hai kun and hai Meng were also shocked. Why was Shen lang here? This should be the White port of the XI Lun Empire, right?
Could they fly? How did he get ahead of them?
Then, they could see even more clearly the light released by the lightning pyramid on the huge city ruins not far away and the ten-thousand-meter-high mountain in the distance.
This ... This wasn’t the White Harbor of the XI Lun Empire. This was clearly the ruins of The Lost Country.
They didn’t escape the cursed sea at all. Just like before, they were back to where they started. However, the place had been decorated and the scenery had changed a little.
Shen lang stood on a high spot and laughed. brothers of the skeleton gang, I calculated the time and came here to welcome you. I even decorated this place like the White port of the xilun Empire. Are you surprised? ” Are you surprised?”
Then, Shen lang looked at hai kun, Sea Dream, and especially Douglas. He said loudly, ” long live Your Highness Douglas! You saved us! You brought us out of trouble! You brought us home!
“PAH!”
“Douglas, you only know how to detonate a few ancient energy cores, right? Isn’t it just a self-destruction countdown function? Look at how capable you are, why are you still pretending to be a Savior or a God?”
that’s right. During the last underwater earthquake, the explosion of the ancient energy core temporarily interrupted the energy field of the cursed Sea area, allowing Hila to successfully escape. However, just because you succeeded the first time doesn’t mean you’ll succeed the second time. They’ve already taken precautions.”
“Douglas, you idiot!”
53000 members of the skeleton gang, you bunch of unbearably stupid fools.
you want Douglas to save you? dream on. In this world, only I, Shen lang, can save you and bring you out of the cursed Sea area and home.”
“If you want me to save you, then kneel down and repent. Kneel down and pledge your loyalty to me! I, Shen lang, am very magnanimous. I am willing to give you another chance.”
