"The Saint of the Seven Towers?" This concept was obviously unfamiliar to Mencius. He thought for a while and said, "Are you talking about those ancient godslayers?"
"Yes. Adriana is the saint of the Spirit Tower. There are documents that show she fled to the Pearl Islands a long time ago. The wizards of the Spirit Tower are good at manipulating the power of life and death. We think she is most likely the Ghost Queen you mentioned."
"Will she live for thousands of years?" Mencius asked.
"For a saint who controls the power of life and death, perhaps she can do it." Mao Kai interjected, "Life is a process of grasping, controlling and consuming energy. Whether it is the soul or the body, as long as it can be repaired and replenished, nothing is impossible."
Mencius said: "Her original identity is not important to us sea tribes. What is important is that her current actions are a threat to many sea tribes."
Xiao Chen said: "This is just a guess. What I need to know now is where is the ghost fleet?"
Mencius said: "Before coming here, I got a piece of news that some sea tribes are gathering their troops and preparing to find the location of the ghost fleet and start a decisive battle with them. I hope to destroy this fleet and kill the ghost queen in one go."
"The sea clan and the Ghost Queen are at war?" Xiao Chen and the others frowned when they heard the news. This situation was much more complicated than they had imagined.
"Could it be Arsinoe?" Trina asked suddenly.
"Yes, it was him. He announced this action two days after you set out to capture the human's new warships." Mencius said.
"It seems that this Sea King's competitor is not willing to let you gain the advantage." Xiao Chen said.
Mencius was surprised: "Trina, you actually told them about the king selection?"
"Father, with so many sea creatures in their hands, do you think I can keep it a secret?" Trina asked back.
"It seems that this Asino chose a good time, just after you decided on your plan to leave. That way, it would be difficult for you to get news halfway. Even if your plan succeeded, by the time you returned, he would have already destroyed the ghost fleet. Judging from what he did, this should be a greater achievement and more popular, right?"
Mencius said: "Yes, not only do people in the alliance support him, but many southern tribes outside the alliance are also grateful for his action. I think as long as he succeeds, he will become the benefactor of many tribes. They will definitely support him in the future king selection."
Trina gritted her teeth and said, "What a cunning guy. I can already imagine the look on his face when he sees me. I have also thought about this problem, but I just can't find the location of the ghost ship. How did he do it?"
Mencius said, "According to what I have heard, he must have marked the souls of some of the crew members in advance. This marking is a secret technique. Even if the crew members die, their souls can still point the way for Arsino. He sent these ships out and waited for the ghost fleet to capture them. Then he found the location of the ghost fleet. But now I have also got this location. As a condition for redeeming Trina, I will give it to you together."
When Trina heard what Arsinoe had done, she angrily cursed a few times, but she finally realized that it was pointless because she had already failed.
She asked Xiao Chen: "Can this information be exchanged for my freedom?"
Xiao Chen said: "Okay. But I want to ask, what are you going to do when you go back now?"
Trina said, "What else can we do? Wait for Arsinoe to return victorious and then admit defeat to him."
Luo Ling asked curiously: "How can you be sure that Asino can defeat the Ghost Queen? If she is really Adriana, she is a very powerful saint. Is there a saint in Asino's team?"
Mencius said: "No, but Asino took away a holy artifact from the family's Ocean Temple, called the Shining Shell. It is a holy artifact that specifically restrains undead creatures. It can store the sun's light and then release a large amount of positive energy in a short period of time. Asino can already use this holy artifact. The Ghost Queen, who is mainly undead, may not be his opponent.
The ghost fleet was able to destroy the sea clan's fleet, not because of its real combat power, but because the ghost queen could make the dead enemies a continuous source of troops. As long as this power was suppressed, Asino would have a good chance, after all, the army he brought was much stronger than Trina's. "
Xiao Chen and Luo Ling discussed quietly for a while, then looked up at Mencius and Trina and said, "I want to ask, what price are you willing to pay if you can become the King of the Sea?"
—————————
In the afternoon of that day, Houyi and Xingtian were already sailing on the road to the south, and behind them were the warships of the sea clan.
The speed of Houyi and Xingtian was much faster than those ships, and they were constantly widening the distance, getting farther and farther.
However, Mencius and Trina, father and daughter, were not on the sea clan's ship, but were on the Houyi with Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen had been prepared for this operation, and their ships were ready to set sail at any time. So they made the decision in the morning and headed straight for the ghost fleet in the afternoon.
Trina floated to Xiao Chen on the deck, and Xiao Chen turned around and asked, "Have you figured it out? Have you made the final decision?"
"Yes." Trina nodded firmly, "I have seen many things in the past few days that I have never seen or thought of before. I see a lot of hope in you that can change the sea people, so I firmly believe that I will be a better sea king than Arsino. Please help me, I will definitely keep my promise!"
"Well, there is also the awakening of the God of Nature." Xiao Chen said, "This is what we really care about."
"Yes, God of Nature. If I become the King of the Sea, I will do my best in this matter." After expressing her determination, Trina paused and asked, "Is his awakening really so terrible?"
"Believe me, compared to his awakening, your fight for the throne of the Sea King is nothing but a child's game." He looked down at Trina's tail, "One thing is certain, you will lose your magic power by then, and you will only be able to walk in a hopping manner."
Trina looked a little annoyed, but after thinking about it, she thought it was indeed a bit funny, so she burst out laughing.
After laughing a few times, she said, "Anyway, I've made up my mind. Even if other sea creatures see me as a woman who does whatever it takes to achieve her ambition, I must stop Asino."
Xiao Chen touched his nose and smiled: "No, when the new era begins, the pen that writes history is in your hands." (To be continued)
