Under the gray sky, the waves of the emerald ocean are rolling.
A fleet is heading south.
It started to rain on the sea, and the amount of rain fluctuated depending on the wind.
Raindrops gathered along the canvas, trickled down the mast, and formed shallow puddles on the wooden deck.
"Atlas, how far away is the place you mentioned?"
Anastasia used a magic shield to cover the rain while looking at the Naga Sword Master and asked.
Atlas enjoyed the impact of the rain, and the dark scales all over his body were soaked.
He twisted his snake-like tail, stepped onto the front deck, looked at the violently rolling dark sea, stretched out his four arms, and said loudly:
"Hurry, hurry! The Eternal Queen's sanctuary is right ahead!"
Anastasia looked at Eureka, whose beautiful eyes flickered, full of doubts and worries just like hers.
After the Star Wind Fleet defeated the Phantom Sea Fleet in Naria, they captured many warships.
Li Ran ordered to split the huge fleet into two, and sent Eureka and Anastasia to lead one of them to the depths of the Emerald Ocean to find the Eternal Queen.
Under Atlas's guidance, the fleet experienced many violent storms, and some ships were even visually damaged.
However, they have not been able to see the slightest shadow of the Eternal Queen so far.
Just when Anastasia wondered whether the Naga Sword Master who had been rescued went crazy when he was seriously injured and was on the verge of death, and blindly led the fleet to dangerous waters to die, things gradually changed.
When the violent wind and waves reached a certain peak, they began to subside at an extremely fast speed, and the fleet seemed to have crossed an invisible boundary.
From then on, the sea ahead was smooth.
Atlas showed his jagged teeth and explained: "This is the domain power of the Eternal Queen. Your Majesty can control the sea water, create extremely harsh sea conditions, and block out the wandering machines."
"That's it." Anastasia looked stunned.
She remembered that the Eternal Queen, as a demigod-level powerhouse and a favored one of the water god Sarasa, was indeed qualified to have the power to control the sea.
Eureka took a step forward, looked at Atlas and asked, "So, we are close to the location of the Eternal Queen?"
"That's right," Atlas nodded, "I said that the Eternal Queen's sanctuary is right ahead!"
It was evening, and at the end of the line of sight where the sea and the sky met, a bright glow appeared. As the ship moved slowly forward in the waves, a large piece of land appeared in the glow.
There are many buildings with a strong Hassima style on the land, including temples, residences, small fortresses, etc., Jian Ling, Sharks, Nagas... Hassimahs walk back and forth in the city.
Eureka was surprised: "Is this the 'Sanctuary'? It looks very similar to Naria."
Atlas smiled bitterly: "It is indeed very similar to Nariya. We have been hiding here since the breakout of Nariya, surviving. We once tried to break through the underwater blockade of the mechanical tribe and isolate Hasima's island. Cities connected themselves, but without exception they failed.”
He pointed at himself, with a sad expression on his face, "I am the only survivor of the last batch of underwater assault corps. If I hadn't met you, I would have become a member of the modified body."
"From today on, you will no longer make unnecessary sacrifices," Anastasia said calmly.
"Why?" Atlas didn't react for a moment.
"Because, we are here." Anastasia said lightly.
When the Hashemites in Sanctuary saw an alien fleet, they were extremely panicked. They immediately reported the news to the Eternal Queen that there was an enemy invasion.
But soon, their panic turned into shock.
Because the people standing on the ship were not machines, but human beings with vivid faces. The mysterious fleet gradually approaching the city showed no sign of attack.
Many Hashemites came to the beach and were curious about what kind of fleet this was.
In response, Atlas walked up to the bow and proudly greeted the people on the shore.
Someone recognized him.
"Atlas! Thank God you are still alive! But why did you bring back a group of humans?"
"How can these people sail in the sea area where the mechanical tribe is raging?" Someone whispered to each other, "They can't be the servants of the Star Breaker."
Atlas waved his arms and laughed heartily a few times. After he finished laughing, he declared loudly with a straight face and a serious voice: "Everyone, please tell the Eternal Queen that Atlas has completed leaving Sanctuary. She has taken on the task of connecting friendly forces and seeking foreign aid! Ask her to meet the friends of the Holy Empire!"
Everyone on the shore showed shocked expressions when they heard this, and several fast-moving stream spirits immediately took action and went to report.
Soon, the fleet received permission to dock, and the fleet leader and Atlas were personally summoned by the Eternal Queen.
Anastasia and Eureka went ashore with Atlas and, escorted by several Naga swordsmen, headed to the temporary palace of the Eternal Queen in the center of the island.
After a thrilling and long voyage, Anastasia and Eureka finally met the Eternal Queen in person.
In the palace hall, a beautiful woman with a slender figure sat quietly among the endless waves.
She has a perfect female body and face. Because her body is highly elemental and contains surging divine power, her whole body has a translucent texture.
Eureka murmured in a pious voice: "This is the Eternal Queen..."
The queen's eyes exuded golden divine light. She looked down at the two guests brought by Atlas, nodded slightly and said: "Atlas, your courage has brought new hope to Sanctuary."
"I obey the Queen's orders." Atlas said, stroking his chest.
The Eternal Queen looked at Anastasia and said with a smile: "Ms. Anna, long time no see."
"It's been a long time, Your Highness the Queen," Anastasia nodded, "Since I came to Hasima at the invitation of Irina, I have been staying in the Forgotten Castle to protect the seal of the Namtaru Spider Mother. Destroyed to this day.”
The Eternal Queen stood up from the endless waves, "Ms. Anna, on behalf of the Hasima Empire, I thank you for your perseverance. However, I have regrettable news to tell you that Irina has died fighting for the empire. Her The soul has also returned to the gate of Hades.”
Anastasia was a little disappointed and said: "I already know this from Atlas's mouth."
Immediately, Atlas described to the Eternal Queen in detail how he was rescued in Narea.
Anastasia also told him the origin of the fleet and the purpose of this trip.
"Her Royal Highness, I am here not to represent Forgotten Castle or myself, but to represent the will of Lord Starwind. As a newly appointed diplomatic envoy, I have brought an alliance and the daughter of an old friend. .”
