Chapter 937: Odd Stone Scroll
Chapter 937: Odd Stone Scroll
A flattery, directly flattered the management of a city.
This... This is crazy...
In an instant, the other City Lords present were stunned for a moment before they immediately became lively.
However, under the commotion of everyone, not only did they not win the Empress' favor, they even made him a little annoyed.
"Alright, you greedy humans, shut up!"
Hollydia shouted, immediately silencing the entire palace.
Then, she glanced at everyone and said impatiently, "It's good to settle down your respective cities. I, Helidia, will definitely not treat you wrongly if I do this."
"Of course, if anyone is dishonest and secretly clever, don't blame me for being ruthless..."
"Back off !"
"Yes!"
Since the Queen had spoken, the original City Lord of the American continent naturally did not dare to stay any longer, so they quickly withdrew.
Only Benjamin, who was kneeling on the ground, seemed to have deliberately slowed down his movements, leaving it for the end...
It was only when City Lord, the last human besides him, walked out of the hall that he suddenly stopped at the center of the hall.
"Lady Empress, I have an urgent tip on you !"
Benjamin turned his head and said something that confused Helidia.
"A secret report about me? What secret report?" Helidia said with a face full of astonishment.
Of course, it was no wonder that Helidia didn't know why. After all, the other party's words were abrupt...
In addition, she was a Sea Race, not a human. Although this guy's city was relatively close to the Sea Race, there was no such thing as a secret report.
After all, although she was Shell Race Emperor, her position in the entire Sea Race was rather awkward and marginal.
However, Benjamin immediately took out a leather scroll and said solemnly, "The other party claims to be a Sea Dragon Clan, saying that he wants to give Lady Empress a good fortune !"
As soon as Benjamin said those words, Helidia immediately jumped up in shock, and even the aura on her body instantly became chaotic.
Afterwards, she carefully released her aura. After confirming that there was no one else in the hall, she immediately personally laid down a white crystal energy barrier.
"Hurry, quickly bring it over !" He said hurriedly.
Benjamin didn't dare to be negligent in such a situation. He quickly handed over the scroll.
However, Helidia, who seemed extremely anxious, did not open the scroll immediately. Instead, she took the scroll and raised her head to ask, "Benjamin, let me ask you, who or what kind of guy gave this scroll to you?"
"Also, apart from handing you the scroll, did he say anything else...?"
Benjamin said solemnly, "Reporting to Lady Empress, the person who gave me this scroll is not a human, but a few tiny angel-like machines!"
"They emerged from the void and claimed to be Sea Dragon Clan's messengers. Other than asking me to hand over the scroll to you, they have nothing else to say!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Helidia's face was already filled with an expression of understanding, as if she had already confirmed something.
However, she said solemnly, "Very good, City Lord Benjamin, very good! You did very well..."
"I won't say anywhere else. As long as this American continent is still under my rule, you are the lord of all humans!"
"Get it...?"
Hollydia took out another 'Sweet Date' and stuffed Benjamin into a daze.
All of America, all of humanity...
This...
Happiness came too quickly, so fast that Benjamin almost suffocated...
At this moment, his entire body was stunned, as if he had fallen into the obscurity of power, without the slightest intention of thanking him.
"What, are you unwilling...?"
Seeing the other party's reaction, Helidia dispelled the doubts in her heart, and at the same time, the corner of her mouth curled into a smile.
"Yes! Yes!" Benjamin came back to his senses and said in horror, "Lady Empress thinks so highly of me. How could this lowly person be unwilling?!"
"This lowly person was overjoyed just now. Please rest assured, Lady Empress. This lowly person has worked hard in the future and will definitely live up to Lady Empress's trust."
The smile on Helidia's face grew even more intense as she said casually, "Well, I do believe you have the ability..."
"However, today's so-called Sea Dragon Clan incident came out of your mouth and entered my ears. If a third person finds out, you should know the consequences, right?"
At the end of her sentence, the smile on Helidia's face disappeared and a cold light flashed in her eyes, causing Benjamin to subconsciously tremble.
"Please rest assured, Lady Empress. From today onwards, this lowly person will never say another word about this matter."
Hearing this, a smile immediately appeared on Helidia's face.
"Very good. Remember what you said today. Let's go down !"
"Yes !"
As she chuckled, a crystal light flashed on Hollydia's body. She opened the barrier in a deep voice and immediately ordered Benjamin to retreat.
As for the latter, he naturally bowed respectfully and left...
However, just as he turned around, a strange light appeared in his eyes...
Of course, Helidia naturally didn't notice this strand of strange light. After all, her attention had long been drawn to the scroll in her hand.
Sensing that Benjamin had completely walked out of the hall, Helidia slowly opened the slightly old scroll after setting up her perceptual barrier again.
At the center of the scroll, a line of text appeared...
"Do you want to change Shell Race's position in Sea Race?"
Apart from that, there's nothing else...
However, it was precisely this line of text that almost instantly caused Helidia to confirm the identity of the person who had given the scroll...
It was her!
That's right, it must be her!
The guy beside the Sea Dragon Emperor who calls himself Seraphim...!
Previously, he had received a message from her...!
Moreover, such words, such a tone, also coincided with the arrogant Sea Dragon Emperor's nature...
However, she had never expected that the Sea Dragon Emperor, who was 90% of the Sea Race, would actually contact her on their own initiative...
Moreover, he also sent himself a question...
Do you want to change Shell Race's position in Sea Race?
This question caused the string in her heart to move...
In fact, there was no need to ask such a question. Of course I wanted to...!
Regardless of whether it was Shell Race, the Crab Race, or the Shrimp Race, whoever had awakened their intelligence, who didn't want their race to take a step further?
After all, an increase in status meant that the entire tribe, including itself, would be able to occupy more evolving resources.
In this way, as long as he wasn't stupid, that race emperor didn't want his race to have a higher status in the entire Sea Race, making his race stronger...
Moreover, Shell Race was the last of the top ten imperial clans, and it was also a race that was widely excluded by most of Sea Race...
If it weren't for the meritorious information from last time and the Eternal Ruins space bestowed by the Ocean Emperor, Shell Race would have been a royal family that didn't even have a subtemporal stronghold.
Of course, even though Shell Race's future was guaranteed after obtaining this Eternal Ruins space, Shell Race was still the same Shell Race as before. In fact, there weren't many changes in essence. They were still the royal family that was close to the last seat.
Moreover, she was well aware of how difficult it was to raise Shell Race's status in Sea Race as a whole.
After all, they did not have a powerful backer, nor did they have the strong support of the ten great imperial clans. Even Sea Emperor Yu Shu had only just come into contact with them...
Moreover, from the other party's eyes, she could only see indifference. That kind of indifference was not only towards him, but towards the entire Sea Race.
She knew very well that Lord Poseidon only had her and his race in his eyes. Perhaps he would give her some sweet spots, but he would definitely not share them with her.
On the other hand, the owner of this scroll was not necessarily...
Helidia, I still remember the sincere words of the Sea Dragon Emperor at the center of the formation. After learning that he was fighting with the Eel Race, he quickly supported him.
This made her feel that she had never felt human kindness, or righteousness...
Furthermore, most importantly, although Helidia had been forced to say everything before, deep down in her heart, she still felt a little guilty towards the Sea Dragon Emperor.
How could Helidia not understand the other party's intentions when she received another piece of news from him and asked such a question?
Clearly, this Sea Dragon Emperor needed his own help, or his race's, to help him...
Although he didn't know what the other party needed her to do, Shell Race Emperor's mind had already begun to become active.
After all, in her eyes, this Sea Dragon Emperor and his race were races that could compete with the Sea Emperor...
Moreover, when the other party asked this question, it was actually telling her that as long as she stood on their side, once the Sea Dragon Race gained power, Shell Race would rise completely.
Of course, she also knew that once she chose her position, it meant that she was standing in front of you with Sea Emperor Yu Shu...
The reason for that was because in the current Sea Race, anyone with good eyesight could tell with a single glance that the undercurrents in the calm of the Sea Race at this moment...
Once the matter of his contact with the Sea Dragon Imperial Clan was leaked, he would not have to say anything else, and his trusted subordinates would definitely die.
Even the entire Shell Race would inevitably be reduced to one of the ten great imperial clans under the wrath of the Ocean Emperor.
However, even so, even if they knew the consequences of the incident...
At this moment, facing the Sea Dragon Emperor, who was very likely to allow the Sea Race to reshuffle their cards, and facing the olive branch from the Ancient Sea Dragon Race, how could Helidia sit still?
After a moment of silence, Shell Race Emperor still firmly pressed his thumb on the bottom of the scroll, an extremely obscure stone mark.
