Qi Zhen opened her eyes and looked at the unfamiliar environment around her, feeling as if she had just entered the game.
My head is a little dizzy.
This seems to be a room, but the surrounding scenery is a bit unreal.
just like……
In the water!
Qi Zhen sat up suddenly and looked at the stone tables and benches around her, as well as the stone bed under her butt. She felt the resistance coming from her skin and finally confirmed.
I am indeed in the water.
He held his breath, feeling an unspeakable absurdity.
Where is this?
Around him, his teammates were lying on the bed in confusion, not yet awake.
Is it because I have stronger mental strength?
Then Qi Zhen finally couldn't hold it in anymore and opened her mouth to take a breath.
The fresh air entered his lungs along the nasal cavity and blended into his blood, making him relax instantly.
Fortunately, I won’t suffocate to death.
He began to wonder where the team was now.
Well, he didn't think about this problem. Qi Zhen was sure that he had arrived in Juchao Country as soon as he knew he was underwater.
What he was thinking about was why the team appeared here.
The next person to wake up was naturally Li Qiang, followed by Jiang Yan, Yu Liang and Meng Ran.
Looking at everyone with bewildered expressions, Qi Zhen signaled everyone to be calm.
"We should be in Juchao Kingdom now, which is under Chao Lake."
After everyone had confirmed their current situation, Qi Zhen slowly spoke.
"Don't ask me why, I just woke up a few minutes earlier than you."
"As for what we should do next, probably just wait here. I believe someone will come to us soon." Qi Zhen continued.
After a while, a soldier with two long beards under his nose walked in. Seeing that several people were awake, he waved the steel fork in his hand and said, "Let's go!"
"Where are you going?" Yu Liang looked at the other person and asked.
"Are you a catfish?" Meng Ran asked curiously.
The catfish spirit's eyes widened: "How did you know!?"
"Catfish must be the only one with such a beautiful beard." Meng Ran said while holding back a smile.
The catfish spirit seemed to take advantage of Meng Ran's compliments and smiled a little silly.
"There's something wrong with these goblins' brains. They can't hear good words?" Yu Liang asked in a low voice.
"The demon wants to see you. Let's go quickly." The catfish spirit said in a kinder tone to several people.
"Is it that giant Kun?" Yu Liang asked Qi Zhen.
Qi Zhen nodded and followed Catfish Spirit out first.
Walking out of this room, the entire scenery of Juchao Kingdom was revealed in front of Qi Zhen's team.
Or using the adjective "magnificent" to describe the architecture here is not appropriate.
But this endless stretch of buildings still gave the team a sense of grandeur.
Unexpectedly, there is such a magnificent scenery under Chaohu Lake, which is thousands of miles away.
Most of the buildings in Juchao Kingdom are made of underwater boulders, giving them a primitive and rough beauty.
Or the word aesthetic is not accurate enough.
Or maybe the demon clan has a different definition of beauty.
There are still some human architectural styles and patterns preserved here, which must have been influenced by Ji Zijin.
While sighing at the magnificence, Qi Zhen couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of Ji Zijin's efforts over the past few hundred years.
Countless monsters live on the continuous stone buildings.
There are fish, shrimps, crabs, squid...
Almost everything that I saw swimming in water on the menu in my previous life can be found here.
Those that have transformed into human form, those that have semi-transformed, those that have not yet transformed...
Various monsters that looked strange but had distinct features rushed to surround Qi Zhen when they saw the five of them.
"Commander Catfish, are these the humans that the Demon Lord sees?" asked a crucian carp spirit.
"Oh, don't stand around, don't stand around, disperse quickly, everyone is busy with their own business." The catfish spirit waved his hand at the demons, signaling everyone not to block the way.
Seeing that no one listened to him, the catfish spirit glared again, and two tendrils flew up: "I am the commander of the imperial guards personally appointed by the Demon Lord, no one listens to what I say?!"
It's okay that he didn't say this. As soon as he said this, the monsters around him snickered, and the crucian carp spirit asked boldly: "May I ask Commander Catfish, how many guards do you have under your command?"
"The Demon Lord said, you should step up your practice. As long as you can transform into a human form, you will naturally have a chance to become a royal guard!" The catfish spirit did not answer the question directly. It seems that he either has two or three big cats and kittens under his command, or he is simply a bachelor. commander.
The demons laughed again.
"Hey! I'll eat you!"
As he spoke, he suddenly transformed into a ten-foot-long catfish. With a flick of its huge fish tail, the building next to him was swept away and collapsed.
The surrounding monsters instantly dispersed.
Qi Zhen and the other five people were puzzled by this scene.
It was probably just a bunch of monsters chirping, and then the catfish spirit turned into its true form and scared those monsters away.
"What method?" Yu Liang asked doubtfully.
Qi Zhen shook her head in confusion.
After walking for a while, everyone finally followed the catfish spirit to the most central and most extensive building in Juchao Kingdom - the Royal Palace.
After hearing from Ji Zijin about the powerful strength of the Demon Lord of Juchao Kingdom, several people became a little more cautious.
Although this palace is not as exquisite as the palace on earth, it is not overly impressive.
Several people walked into the main hall of the palace. The first thing they saw was a group of extremely well-behaved monsters standing in the palace. The worst looking monsters were semi-human monsters. At this time, they all bowed respectfully towards the highest point in the palace. Get dressed.
The catfish spirit cleared its throat and shouted loudly in the most upright demonic Mandarin: "Humans have arrived!"
As soon as these words were said, all the monsters turned around and looked at Qi Zhen and the other five.
Yu Liang felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by these strange monsters. He waved to them and said with an awkward smile: "Hello everyone, it's the first time we meet."
"Commander Catfish, how many times have I told you that we can't say we are here at this time? Why can't you remember?" An old man wearing a funny hat stood at the front of the team and shouted to the Catfish Spirit.
"I forgot," the catfish spirit said quickly with a smile.
"Go down." The old man waved his hand towards the catfish spirit.
The catfish spirit bowed and retreated.
"Human, come forward." The old man spoke extremely fluent human language and waved to Qi Zhen and the other five.
Under the gaze of all the demons, Qi Zhen and the other two slowly walked forward, once again experiencing the feeling of being watched by everyone.
"I really don't like being stared at by others like this." Yu Liang muttered.
"You'll get used to it gradually." Qi Zhen said with a wry smile.
Finally, the five people reached the front of the team and met the legendary demon lord.
