Chapter 424 (1/2)

424 – Naga Empress Stephania

After Kalim and the naga warriors escaped from the Ghost Skeleton Island, the pirates that remained on the island immediately devolved into chaos.

When Yang Feng’s forces landed on the Ghost Skeleton Island, the pirates on the island surrendered.

The Black Dragon Country also rescued more than 30,000 women and children from the Ghost Skeleton Island.

After turning over the entire island, Yang Feng found approximately 10 million gold coins worth of treasures. Evidently, the gold coins and all kinds of treasures collected by the Black Skeleton Pirates in recent years were all offered to the nagas in order to obtain their protection.

Arlet pointed at the naga temple and asked: “What should we do with this temple, Your Majesty?”

Yang Feng looked at the naga temple and could’t help frowning.

The naga temple was dedicated to the G.o.ddess of Nagas Daphne, who was an intermediate divine force rank G.o.d, a frightening powerhouse at the same rank as the Fighting Demonic Sect’s four Great Elders.

If it wasn’t for the planar tide, Yang Feng would’t dare to easily offend such formidable G.o.ddess even with the treaty of the G.o.ds in place.

For the G.o.ddess of Nagas, Yang Feng s.n.a.t.c.hing the Ghost Skeleton Island away from the nagas was nothing. But if he dared to desecrate her idol, then that would definitely give rise to an irreconcilable enmity.

Yang Feng pondered for a while before saying: “Head my command, no one is allowed to desecrate the idol of the G.o.ddess inside. Arlet, you are to personally oversee this matter. Kill anyone who violates this order.”

Her heart shook, and Arlet responded: “Yes! Your majesty!”

In the East Sea, 50,000 meters below the surface of the sea, there was a city full of artistic flair extending without end.

Within that city, there were huge spiral houses, coral mountains, and other constructions br.i.m.m.i.n.g with merfolk style.

The streets were filled with nagas, who had a human upper body and a snake tail; octopusmen, who had the head of an octopus and the body of a human; and other strange merfolk experts.

In the center of the city, there lied a magnificent and luxurious palace covering tens of thousands of hectares.

This palace was the the East Sea’s East Sea Palace. The East Sea Palace was enveloped by a formidable barrier, blocking the water from entering inside. The interior was filled with fresh air and life magic energy. Even humans could live freely and comfortably here.

The four seas – East, West, North, and South Sea, each had a magnificent sea palace. The four sea palaces was where the four Sea Monarchs resided.

In addition to the four sea palaces, there was still a sea imperial palace in the West Sea, which governed the four sea palaces. Unlike the humans, who lived by a separation of church and state, the merfolk governing model was basically a theocracy, where the Sea Emperor was not only the emperor of merfolk, but also the pope appointed by the merfolk G.o.ds of the Sea G.o.d Church. The four Sea Monarchs were the four cardinals of the Sea G.o.d Church.

However, with the pa.s.sage of time, apart from the West Sea Palace, who was still firmly controlled by the sea imperial palace, the other three sea palaces only paid lip service to the sea imperial palace.

A fierce flash in her eyes, Kunna swam towards the East Sea Palace: “That wretched Black Dragon Country’s emperor!! This humiliation, I will repay you a hundredfold!”

In a luxurious palace of the East Sea Palace, a beautiful four-armed naga with the upper body of a s.e.xy and tender woman with a crown on her head and the lower body of a snake sitting on a golden throne coldly looked at the kneeling Kunna.

This gorgeous four-armed naga was the Naga Empress Stephania. Under her leaders.h.i.+p, the nagas grew into a strong race capable of contending against merpeople in the sea palace.

As a great cleric, Kunna’s status among nagas was extremely high. Originally, she only had to kneel before the G.o.ds the nagas wors.h.i.+ped. Yet every time she met Stephania, she would respectfully kneel before her, and that was because the G.o.ddess of Nagas Daphne had appointed her as one of the naga G.o.ds.

For G.o.ds of the Feisuo Plane, the planar tide was a great disaster, but also a great opportunity. Without the planar tide, Daphne would never dare to go against the strong divine force Sea G.o.d Hrehoriy. However, with the planar tide, if the nagas could take this opportunity to produce several new G.o.ds, then they could gain independence. Just like the G.o.ddess Lolth established an independent dark elven divine system.

As she listened to Kunna’s report, Stephania lightly tapped the golden throne with a finger, a sharp and cold look in her eyes.

Stephania showed a beautiful smile, yet her pretty eyes flashed coldly: “Interesting. The sea is the domain of us merfolk. Even dragons don’t act presumptuously in the sea, yet that little ruler of barbarians dares to provoke us merfolk. I want to see what trump cards he has up his sleeves!”

An 8-meter-tall whaleman expert stepped forward and said loudly: “Your Majesty! I wish to lead troops to wipe out those barbarians.”

Stephania glanced at the whaleman powerhouse and responded coldly: “Adam! The wisdom apple is about to ripen! Our primary objective now is to have Agatha and them go retrieve the wisdom apple, and not to entangle with the barbarians.
