Ryan's question also raised the doubts of the other two people. Avro did not hide it and directly told the secret: "In fact, after we are born, our upper body is humanoid and our lower body has a tail fin. This is similar to Naga The tribe is very similar, but our tail fin can only swim but cannot bend to walk. In addition, our heads have copper-colored or black hair instead of fins. We still only have two hands. Well, if there are The difference is that there are no males in our race. If you want to reproduce the next generation, you must have a male from a different race... "
Avro's voice gradually became inaudible when she said this, and then she returned to her normal voice and continued: "So when we become adults, we will perform a ritual, through which we will become our new appearance as adults, Our appearance and body will inherit the bloodline from our father and become very similar to the women of his race, which is why I grew up to be a woman of the Sand tribe."
"This is really magical." After listening to Avro's explanation, Ryan felt that the wonders of creation are really all-encompassing. Faras obviously had the same idea as him. Only Tisilis, who had lived in the underwater world all year round, had previously She knew something about it and her face was quite calm. She saw that Ryan and Farasi were both amazed, so she couldn't help but interjected: "Actually, the Naga tribe and the Nymph tribe have many similarities, but they are also very different. The opposite place.”
"Oh, I need to ask for advice." Ryan turned his gaze to Tisilis and asked, "Also, is the nymph tribe the same race as Avro."
"Yes, the Siren Empire is just the name of a country, but the members of the race that established and ruled this country are very rare, so people are used to calling this race by the name of the empire instead of their original names. Tisilis explained: "I will not elaborate on the difference in appearance. In fact, if you two observe me and Avro, you can clearly see that the women of the Naga tribe can also After marrying a man from a foreign race, the offspring are all pure Nagas. Unlike the Nymphs who inherit their father's appearance and body shape, our Nagas will inherit the power from our father's bloodline. Hmm, if I guessed correctly If so, the man who gave birth to Sadurina with my mother is definitely a legendary strongman from the alien race, and my father is probably just a face she found on a temporary basis."
The topic of Tiselis was obviously dissatisfied with her mother, and at the same time it involved the privacy of the Naga royal family, so Ryan could only nodded and answered in a very vague tone, and Tiselis spoke again. Said: "Perhaps Ryan, you will look down on the Nagas because of this, and feel that this race is too casual in some aspects. In fact, there is nothing you can do about it. A long time ago, the Nagas were just a race with a very small population. , the force is not strong enough, and it is inevitable to become a vassal of other races. If it were not for the humiliation and reproduction of generations of great Naga women, how could we have become the largest race in the entire underwater time, and how could we have ruled this sea area. It lasts for thousands of years.”
"If you put Naga and Nymph together, even as a Naga royal family, I have to admit that in this sea area, the Nymph family will always be the nobility. Their beauty and temperament cannot be compared with other races. Just now, sister Avro said that their ancestor was the ocean goddess. I think this is probably true, because only the descendants of gods can have this kind of innate nobility." Tisiris said with envy,
"But obviously, the truth is always so cruel. The more beautiful and noble you are, the more bumpy your fate seems to be, such as the nymph tribe, such as the tribe of Freya." In order not to reveal some secrets, Tisiris When talking about the elves, she deliberately changed the name. Her intentions were clearly understood by Ryan and Faras, so they couldn't help but nodded together. The status of the elves in the land world is probably more than that of the nymphs in the underwater world. However, their fate is indeed not very good. In the past thousand years, they have almost completely shrunk into the depths of the Whispering Forest, relying on the Demon Moon City in the subspace plane to survive. Of course, the elves can only be considered retired at best. Compared with There is a huge difference between the Nymphs who are chased by the Nagas in the underwater world and have no way to go to the sky or the earth.
"Why, why is this?" Avro had obviously thought about this problem before. She couldn't help but express the question that had been held in her heart for many years.
"It's very simple. You care too much about your past glory, which makes you obsessed with the past and ignore the reality." Tisilis pointed out the problem to the point, and then she continued: "This is your most important problem , it makes you not want to make progress, and always want to maintain everything as it was before, no matter rules, customs or other things, and there are many things here that should have been eliminated by the long river of history."
"The Naga tribe is making progress every moment, so in the end history gave us a correct answer, it's as simple as that." Tisilis asked with a smile: "Furthermore, your tribe has too few people. Well, sister Avro, your entire nymph clan, together now, can you count a hundred people?"
Avro shook her head mechanically. Ever since she started fleeing from the kingdom, the entire nymph family, let alone a hundred people, would probably have more than forty or fifty people, which would have been a very prosperous period for the bloodline. Otherwise, the Ruth next to her mother Mr. Yaro would not suggest that Silinwina stop the unnecessary rituals and instead use the women of the tribe to win over the legendary strong men in a very practical way, just like many, many years ago, when the Naga tribe did not rule this sea area. do that,
"But do you know how many people there are in the Naga tribe now?" Tisiris asked again,
Avro shook her head again. Of course she knew that there would be many Nagas, but naturally she couldn't give a more accurate number.
"Actually, it's not a lot. It's probably between 42 billion and 48 billion." Tisilis said a number calmly,
"Ahem." Ryan couldn't help coughing. Even though he was a legendary strong man, he was still shocked by this number. In his memory, the number of humans in the entire Eslar continent seemed to be only six or seven. There are tens of millions of people, and after Senat's rebellion, the population has dropped by tens of millions. Even if other races are added, such as elves, dwarves, and orcs, the total will probably not exceed six. Ten million, not even a fraction of the Naga tribe.
"This is the second secret of the Naga tribe's rule for thousands of years, which is the large population. Avro, do you know how many offspring the Naga tribe in the entire underwater world will breed in a day? Well, it is more than 2 million. In other words "Sister Avro, if there is an endless war between a powerful empire and the Naga Empire, we can send 2 million strong warriors to the battlefield every day to be consumed without worrying about losing our own vitality." Tissi Liz said with a sense of arrogance: "Can the nymphs do it? Can other races in the underwater world do it? The fishmen, although they have a large population, have split into many subspecies such as Triton, Shark, and Lorca." Races are hostile to each other and it is impossible to unify. As for other races, the lizard race lacks magic, the octopus race lacks tenacity, and the snake race is cunning but not trusted by other races... It can be said that as long as these races cannot unite, the Naga race The rule of the underwater world is rock solid, and so what if they all unite, do they have the courage to send 2 million people to the battlefield every day?"
Tisilis's powerful words made Avro completely silent. At this time, she already understood in her heart that her ancestors did not lose unjustly. They lacked the kingly domineering power of the Naga tribe. She looked at Tissi While Liz was in high spirits, Ryan was lost in thought. The Nagas are a powerful race. During this trip to the bottom of the sea, he was really able to successfully support Tisilis in power among the powerful opponents. Even if If it succeeds, can Tisiris really ensure long-term peaceful coexistence between Nagas and humans after taking the throne? The explosive population reproduction of the Nagas must have doomed their desire for external expansion. That is Countless years of experience have finally formed the concept innately. In order to maintain the current way of survival of the Naga people, they must expand externally to obtain resources without limit. On the human side, because of the low pressure on population and land, the empires of successive dynasties have been under pressure for a long time. and the ruling kings all lack this firm belief that they will die if they do not expand. In a sense, human beings have already lost at the starting line compared to their neighbors under the sea, and one of the most obvious features now is the legend among human beings. There are only a few strong people, and the strong ones among the Naga tribe can already form a team at will to start adventures, just like Austin,

The beautiful Celine Weina wore a pure white gauze scarf on her shoulders. She stood silently and watched the old octopus man Oro nervously repairing the severely damaged magic teleportation array in front of her. Behind her, the snake man Sa Erdo guarded her without saying a word. This was a ruin that had been abandoned for unknown years on the outskirts of Yulutel. The broken walls in the ruins were covered with moss, and their original appearance was completely unrecognizable. As for all the valuable things in the ruins, they were all moved away by the murlocs living nearby over the long years. Therefore, anyone who passes by here will only think that the ruins have long been meaningless.
There were more than a dozen murloc corpses lying outside the ruins. Judging from their costumes and the items next to the corpses, they probably came out to collect food from nearby settlements. Unexpectedly, their heads were missing because of their encounter with Celine Weina and her party. , further away in the ruins, dozens of smart and capable guards are lurking around to prevent anyone from approaching and discovering the secret of their master.
"Is this really the teleportation array to the Holy Land of the Siren Empire?" The legendary strongman, the fishman Tyrik stood aside and asked curiously. Although he was also a fishman, Tyrik had no idea what was happening outside the corpse. The fellow fishmen have no sympathy, but are particularly interested in what Oro is repairing in front of them: "I think this place has been abandoned for at least a thousand years, why..."
"Of course, Mr. Tyrek." Anyway, there was nothing going on, so Celine Weena simply chatted with Tyrek for a few words, and she said: "In fact, the places where you enter and leave the Holy Land are different every time, otherwise the Nagas will chase after you. How can it be possible that after killing us for nearly ten thousand years, we still can't confirm the most accurate place? Others only think that Yurutl is the location of the Holy Land, but they don't know that my target is just this inconspicuous ruin."
"Haha, madam, you are indeed amazing. I'm afraid that little girl Avro has led others to the wrong target." Tyrik said with a smile: "Although there are strong people in Yurutel, Not many, but there are also a few powerful guys who are old and immortal. By the time they realize that something is wrong, the whole ritual will have been completed."
Silenwina smiled and said nothing, but there was still a proud expression on her face. Obviously, the compliment from the fishman Tyrek made her feel very comfortable. Suddenly, a scream came from the distance. The sound had just come out. Then he was pressed down. It seemed that someone was blocking the screaming deceased. Silenwina frowned and asked, "Go and see what's going on."
A moment later, a snake-man guard leader answered softly outside the ruins: "Madam, it was a fish-man who passed by without opening his eyes. He has been dealt with by the brothers. Everything is normal now. Please rest assured." Since there was no one nearby except Oro. The master was busy and occasionally made some noise, but he was actually very calm. Therefore, even though the distance was a bit far away, the voice of the snake leader reached Silenweina's ears very clearly.
Silenwina sighed and said: "It's not that I'm sensitive. You all felt the terrible aura not long ago. You should know what a terrible existence it is. When did the Naga people actually have such terrible people? The tiefling was safe in the end. This is probably the more threatening existence of the Nagas, so we must be cautious now and ensure that everything goes smoothly, do you understand?"
"I'm sorry, madam, I will tell the brothers to cheer up and I will never miss your important event." The snake leader outside the ruins replied respectfully,
"I will not treat you badly. When has the royal family of the Siren Empire ever treated one of its own people badly?" Silenwina said with a smile. Although the snake leader outside could not see her face, there was just a hint of smile in her words. The thought made him burst into tears of gratitude, and he lay on the ground and choked up. It was obvious that he was very moved.
"Okay, go and do your work." Silinweina tried her best to say a few more words and sent the snake leader away. Then she turned to look at Master Oro who was still busy and saw that he was doing his best to repair the man in front of him who had been damaged. The magic teleportation array that has been abandoned for more than a thousand years,
