Alien Knights

Waiheke Island, the residence of the Mermaid Chief of Salamo.

A member of the Tribesmen tribe with huge eyeballs and exposed teeth stared at the decorations in the room in amazement and was speechless for a long time.

Standing in front of a huge glass glazed screen, a member of the Platinum Tribe cautiously stretched out his paws, wanting to touch and see the complex and gorgeous patterns on it.

One of Rita's maids quickly stopped him: "Don't move! Do you know how expensive this thing is? What if it breaks?!"

As a member of the ocean refugee delegation, Gray Hu, the leader of the Jinlaska Sea Hu tribe, looked at the throne made of steel and shells in the water and could not recover for a long time.

Rita directed her tribe to bring a huge round floating table and place it in the seawater urn in the center of the room.

One after another, exquisite and special dishes were placed on the floating table.

Gray Hu looked at the dishes on the table, some of which he recognized.

For example, the snail fish is cut into small pieces and wrapped in seaweed. This is a specialty dish of the Salamo mermaids to entertain distinguished guests.

But more often than not, there were dishes he had never seen, or even heard of.

"You said this is called wheat flour grilled fish?" Gray Hu looked at the golden crispy grilled fish on the table and asked uneasily: "Is this the food of the land race?"

Rita smiled and said: "Unlike in the sea, you can use flames and seasonings to make food on land, so you have more choices and leeway in making dishes."

Gray Hu looked at the grilled fish with some doubts and asked: "This fish has been cooked, can it still be eaten?"

Rita nodded: "Don't you know it if you try it?"

Gray Falcon carefully picked off a piece of fish, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.

Soon, his eyes widened, he scooped it up with his big hand, and stuffed the whole grilled fish into his mouth.

"Compared with raw fish, although it lacks some umami, it is surprisingly delicious." Gray Hu ate the grilled fish in twos, and wiped his mouth with unsatisfied taste: "Is there any more?"

Rita's maid rolled her eyes at Gray Swan.

Picking up a piece of cream cake, Rita took a bite and showed an expression of enjoyment: "I have to admit that the food on land is rich in variety and tastes good."

Gray Hu picked up a fried shrimp cake and quickly stuffed it into his mouth.

He looked back and saw that a dozen people from the ocean refugee delegation had gathered.

Opening his arms and trying his best to protect the food plate in front of him, Gray Hu simply buried his head in the food and started eating.

Seeing this scene, other refugee representatives were unhappy.

People rushed to the table, pushing, yelling, and grabbing as much food as they could, like a pack of hyenas that had discovered a carrion.

Rita's maids had disgust on their faces, and their eyes when looking at the refugees, which originally showed some sympathy, were now filled with deep contempt.

However, Rita seemed a little different.

She held a goblet filled with red wine in one hand and a cake in the other. She looked at the ocean refugees in front of her, with a faint glint of eyes on her prey.

Full of wine and food.

The refugee representatives floated on the sea water with their belly full, and let out a satisfied sigh of admiration.

"I always thought that the land was a group of barbaric and backward races. I didn't expect that their food was so delicious."

"In the sea, flames and seasonings cannot be used, so our food cannot have a variety of flavors?"

"I wonder how many things are needed to get such a meal?"

Rita clapped her hands and signaled the maids to remove the dining table, then smiled and said to the others: "You, like me, are all people of the ancient gods, and you all come from the sea."

"A long time ago, our ancestors warned us not to go near the coast, let alone try to contact the sailors on the sea." Rita looked at the others and said: "Most of the reasons they gave were that the resources on the land were poor and the residents Evil...but have you ever thought that our ancestors actually prevented us from touching the land in order to protect us?"

Gray Hu's face was full of disbelief: "Protect?"

Rita sighed quietly: "I once went to the capital of Dragon Kingdom, a city called Muxi City."

"There are more than three million residents there and an army of nearly 100,000 people. Each of them has powerful abilities and sophisticated equipment. Moreover, the economy, people's livelihood, and culture... are far ahead of us. "

Gray Hu was stunned when he heard it: "I don't believe it."

Rita pointed at the items in the room: "These furniture were given to me by the Dragon God, and the food is also from Muxi City. What do you think?"

Everyone looked around the room and fell into silence.

Rita paused for a moment and then said: "I have good news for everyone."

"Dragon God agrees to accept you."

Different from the relief of others, Gray Falcon asked Rita: "What's the corresponding price?"

Rita said calmly: "I paid the tribute for you to the Dragon God."

"Thank you for your kindness, we will never forget it, then..."

"When the Dragon God needs us, we must step forward."

Gray Hu asked in a deep voice: "Do you want us to participate in the war?"

Rita answered him: "The Dragon God didn't make it clear, he just asked us to be prepared."

Someone among the refugees asked: "What if the Dragon God doesn't care about our life and death at all, and just treats us as expendable supplies in the war?"

Rita smiled and replied: "Then we must also obey his orders."

"this……?"

Rita pointed in the direction of the land: "The Dragon God is willing to take us in, which is already a great gift. Do you know how much it means to the residents of the Dragon Kingdom to give up the land in the kingdom to a group of believers of the alien gods to live in? Huge thrill.”

"I don't need to elaborate. You should also know how hostile the people in the city are to us."

Hearing this, the ocean refugees looked at each other, with panic expressions on each of their faces.

"what should we do?"

"They won't drive us away, will they?"

"We have nowhere to go!"

Rita looked at everyone's embarrassment and said softly: "Fortunately, the relationship between the Salamo mermaid tribe and the residents of the city is not bad."

Like a drowning man grasping at a straw, refugee representatives turned to Rita for help.

"As early as when they first arrived in the Dragon Kingdom, the Mermaid of Salamo had already taken out most of their property and used it to make good friends with every force in the city. Now there is very little left."

Rita said with a troubled expression.

Gray Hu gritted his teeth: "Jinlaska is willing to take out the remaining wealth of the clan and let you operate it."

"So does my clan!"

"Same for us."

Rita quickly waved her hands and said, "Do you think I am greedy for wealth?"

"You and I both come from the sea. In the eyes of the people of the Dragon Kingdom, we are all alien beings. Helping you is also saving the mermaids of Salamo." Rita looked upright and awe-inspiring: "Only when the children of the ocean unite can we survive in the sea. Long Guozhong has a firm foothold.”

The ocean refugees were moved by Rita's words and said one after another: "Please tell me, the leader of the Salamo Mermaids, what should we do?"

Rita rolled her eyes: "I heard that there is something in Twilight City called the Industrial Union..."
