Arcane Age

The Dark Council is an alliance formed by careerists from almost all the mainstream races in the known civilizations in the multi-dimensional world of Orrente, and targets the world of Orente on the main material plane.

In addition to the demons of the endless abyss, the undead of the Boneyard, the dark elves of the underdark, and the vampires who occupy the leadership position, other dark forces from various different multidimensional planes also have unfathomable strength. They also want to separate themselves in the Orient continent. A cup of soup. Because only in the main material plane can we see hope of further progress, and only the most powerful people can truly succeed in becoming gods and achieve immortality.

Only 30% of the main material plane where the Orient continent is located is land, and the remaining 70% is ocean. Such a vast ocean is naturally a fertile paradise in the eyes of many creatures in the ocean plane.

After the catastrophe of the setting sun, countless dark races entered the oceans of the Orient world through various means, and the Kuo-toa people were the most evil and powerful ocean force. The sea area they chose to conquer was the entire ocean. The most prosperous central sea in the Oriente world - the Golden Sea.

The Kuo-Toa originally lived in a giant plane called "The Deep Sea". Millions of Kuo-Toa of different skin colors and races believed in a demigod named Kokanoa, the "Queen of the Deep Sea". This demigod has a long lifespan and unfathomable strength. Although she responded a little slowly and did not respond to the invitation of the immortal king Bardes, nor attended the founding meeting of the Dark Parliament, she still joined the Dark Parliament in time. , received support and welcome from almost all members of the Dark Council.

Even most members of the Dark Council like to live on land and in the sky. The ocean is a vast and mysterious world that most people are afraid of but dare not approach.

The deep sea where the Kuo-Toa live is a desperate black ocean where no light can be seen at all. There are endless storms and huge waves. Rumor has it that these huge waves are the call of the "Queen of the Deep Sea" Kokanoa. , they have lived in such a harsh environment for hundreds of thousands of years, and now finally, with the help of the Dark Parliament, they have opened a dimensional passage to the world of Oulent.

This plane passage is located in the deepest part of the Golden Sea. It was built by the wise Demon King Forraz himself. It is very stable and very hidden. Of course, the price is that the number of Kuo Tao fishmen that can pass through is severely limited.

Although there are great restrictions, this passage is enough for the "Queen of the Deep Sea" Kokanoa. If she wants to become the ocean goddess in the world of Orrente, she must step out of the "turbulent deep sea" plane. , causing violent waves, making other intelligent species besides fish-men, especially humans, also believe in her, so that we can go one step further!

For the Kuo-Toa, being able to go to the main material world is also a great temptation. You must know that in this desperate black deep sea, thousands of Kuo-Toa commit suicide every year. This is also a reflection of the "deep sea" Queen" Kokanoa's worst blasphemy.

Among the hundreds of Kuo-Toa tribes, Kokanoa held a grand ceremony and selected more than fifty powerful Kuo-Toa expeditionary forces. They will lead to Euron through the portal one after another. Special plane, start the conquest of this prosperous and rich world.

The Kuo-Toa are by no means just guys who can only charge with "Ulwala". They are also an intelligent race, and they have been honed in the deep sea waves and are far more bloody and cruel than normal life.

When they landed on land, their average height was also two to three meters. When they entered the ocean, their bodies became even more stretched and huge; the first batches of Kuo-Tao fishmen expeditions also included a very high proportion of Kuo-Tao. Murloc priests, they master the divine magic given by the Queen of the Deep Sea, and there are a large number of spellcasters who master water element spells. In addition, there are also terrifying sea beasts from the "turbulent deep sea" plane that they control.

In fact, it was not just Palermo's merchant ships that were attacked. The entire Golden Sea stretched from the Port of Gibraltar at the southernmost tip of the Spanish region of the Holy Norman Empire in the west, to Castle in the east, to the commercial city of Venice in the north, and to the south Kuo-Tao fishmen appeared everywhere in the continent of Afric. They sank almost all the human merchant ships they saw and captured a large number of crew members, sailors and cargo!

Even if the catastrophic setting sun comes, even if the Dark Parliament rushes forward, the Golden Sea, which was still extremely busy, has finally turned into a cold sea of ​​isolation.

"This is really a big trouble!" Xi Wei is already a legendary spell caster. His knowledge of space spells ranks among the top ten among all the mages in the entire Oriente world. Therefore, after getting the information, he quickly set out to Golden Sea observed several important sea routes, and the Kuo Tao fish people also came into his sight.

Both Violet Island and Sicily are located on the golden sea. Violet has been able to grow so quickly and has always relied on shipping routes. Only in this way can there be a steady flow of talents and resources, and various magical industrial products can be continuously sold to France and France. Holy Norman Empire and Kingdom of Etanli.

In ocean trade, Violet can be said to have gained great benefits. Once the shipping route is cut off, it will definitely be a major blow to Violet.

No one knew where these powerful and ferocious fish-men came from, and no one knew what they wanted to do, but the answer was soon revealed. A merchant captain was returned to Palermo. .

"They forced us to believe in a god named Kokanoa, Queen of the Deep Sea. In order to survive, I have to surrender my faith to this great master!" The middle-aged man exposed his arms, which were printed on them. The mysterious and cruel dark cyan tattoo is the emblem of the Deep Sea Queen's followers.

"This tattoo can help me breathe underwater and prevent me from drowning. It is effective for two magic hours every day!" The middle-aged merchant captain showed an expression that he didn't know whether it was pain or laughter: "That's the information!"

"Other than that, what else are there to ask for? How can we redeem our merchant ships and sailors?" The three Palermo merchant ships only had cargo, but there were still a full two hundred sailors and crew members, almost all of whom were A native of Palermo, Qinglang has to pay attention to this.

"Her Majesty the Queen of the Deep Sea has decreed that all humans around the Golden Sea must surrender their faith to her, otherwise she will rain down her thunderous wrath, raise endless waves, and flood all cities or islands that dare to resist or disobey her!" Captain! Taking a deep breath: "Master Qinglang, my lord the Queen of the Deep Sea is a goddess with very powerful divine power. Her power is very terrifying. I think it is best for us not to resist. After all, this ocean goddess can not only give We give you blessings, but they can completely destroy us!”

Qing Lang wanted to yell, but he was a little wary. After all, this mysterious queen of the deep sea was probably a demigod, and was definitely not someone he, a new master, could offend. However, as the mayor of Palermo, he already has a new immediate boss and lord, so he does not have to take responsibility himself.

Xi Wei no longer stayed in Catania, but came directly to Palermo. Regarding the mysterious "Queen of the Deep Sea" Kokanoa, he chose to consult another good friend of his, that is, the "Lord of Music" "Sophie.

"Queen of the Deep Sea? Lord of millions of Kuo-Tao fishmen?" Sophie's face changed slightly, obviously a little surprised: "If it is really the Lord of the Deep Sea, he is a powerful man far beyond Nicholas, the Lord of Secret Blood. ! I once heard a comment about the Queen of the Deep Sea. If there is an ocean goddess in the world of Orrente in the future, it will only be Kokanoa!"

"How does it compare to the Immortal King Bardes, the Tyrant Lord Razgata, or the Lord of the Morning Yurishia?" Xi Wei asked curiously.

"It should be on the same level. In any case, it is far beyond the limit of what I can handle." Sophie said with a wry smile: "But her true body has a very deep connection with the entire deep sea plane of frenzy, and It is difficult for a demigod of this level to send all her power into the main material plane!"

"In other words, what we need to face now is only the elite of the Kuo Tao people?" Xi Wei thought thoughtfully: "And I'm afraid it's not just us, whether it's the Holy Norman Empire, the Kingdom of France, the Holy See, or Venice , King's Castle, and other forces will not tolerate the Queen of the Deep Sea cutting off sea routes like this, right? This is the Golden Sea, a steady stream of wealth for countless big shots!"

What the merchant ship captain brought back was only a warning from the Queen of the Deep Sea, but not an ultimatum. So while he was constantly investigating the Kuo Tao fish people's intelligence, Xi Wei was also paying attention to the responses of other forces.

However, news that disappointed Xi Wei came one after another. First, the ruler of most of the Kingdom of Etanli, the Lord of Secret Blood, Nicholas, issued a statement: "Let what is on land return to land, and what is in ocean return to ocean." He directly announced that he had given up. Most of the sailors and some port cities fought for their faith and expressed their concession to the Queen of the Deep Sea, Kokanoa.

Not only Nicholas, the Lord of Secret Blood, but also other city-states and ports on the Eastern Golden Sea Route have surrendered. Even the current masters of the commercial city of Venice, "Dragon of Shadows" Rust and "White Crow Blocking the Sun" Schiller, have also surrendered. Under the mediation of the Dark Council, the faith of Venetian sailors and merchants was conditionally opened, allowing them to believe in Kokanoa, Queen of the Deep Sea.

Infiniti, the owner of the setting sun, did not make any statement on this and completely ignored it. The followers of Kokanoa, Queen of the Deep Sea, are chosen from rough sailors, greedy businessmen and cruel pirates. These people have almost no contact with his followers and will not compete with him for their faith at all, so there is no need to provoke him anymore. Such a powerful demigod, although she is also a member of the Dark Council.

In less than a week, there are only four coastal forces on the Golden Sea that have not surrendered to the Queen of the Deep Sea Kokanoa and opened their faith: the Holy Norman Empire, the Kingdom of France, Violet, and Castle.

At this moment, a giant steel ship hundreds of meters long docked at White Shark Port outside Palermo. This giant steel ship was the magic armored ship that Xi Wei had once glimpsed - the Holy Spirit. Estamba.

Palermo Speaker Qing Lang quickly organized a welcome ceremony to invite the rear admiral from the Holy Norman Empire into the city. However, when he saw the true face of the rear admiral, he was completely stunned.

With her long red hair, tall and handsome figure, sharp eyes, and the familiar slender scar that passed through her left eye but did not damage her beauty, it was none other than the former pirate king and red-haired queen, Katarina!

She was once as famous as Green Wolf's adoptive father, Sea Wolf King Cook, and was the most active pirate on the Golden Sea. However, now that Sea Wolf King Cook has been buried long ago, she has transformed into the Holy Norman Empire, the strongest kingdom in mankind. A big shot, a rear admiral wearing a navy blue uniform.

Moreover, Qing Lang also sensed the terrifying aura on her body, which was the aura of a superior person, representing a power far more powerful than his newly promoted seventh-level bloodline knight.

"Green Wolf? Long time no see. I didn't expect you to become a master in just over two years. Captain Cook must be very happy if there is a spirit in the Styx." Catalina's sharp eyes were on Green Wolf I glanced over and saw his current rank and strength at a glance.

Although the two sides had been opposing each other during the adventure in the deep sea plane, in the end, in the battle against the heir of the Estamba family, Catalina's brother Gugli, the two sides stood on the same front and fought side by side, as did Cook. He died in this battle, so the relationship cannot be called tit-for-tat.

"Nice to see you again, General Catalina!" Qing Lang bowed in salute.

"I think you are not the real master of Sicily, right? Please lead the way. I am here to deal with the Queen of the Deep Sea and the Kuo Tao fish people!" Catalina went straight to the topic and did not exchange greetings with Qing Lang. intention.

Soon Catalina met the owner of Sicily, her old acquaintance, and it was also the old friend she wanted to see most during this trip south.

"I knew it was you, Xiwei! As far as I know, you are already a truly legendary spellcaster. This is really a living miracle. You must know that two years ago, you were just a small middle-aged man. Just a first-level magician." Katarina showed a relaxed smile, as if recalling that time of adventure.

"I'm so happy to see you, Catalina! I didn't expect that you would not only become the heir of the Estamba family, but also enter the legendary realm and become an imperial major general. This is also a very difficult challenge. You did a great job. Old friend!" For Xi Wei, due to his rapid growth, he has made very few friends. With his current identity and status, it is even more difficult for him to have new friends. Therefore, he also expressed his concern for Catalina's arrival. A heartfelt welcome.

"I heard that Christine was also abducted by you? She is the precious daughter of Archduke Philip, recognized as a beautiful flower in the empire, and the dream lover of countless people. Unexpectedly, she was picked by you so early!" Katerina was also the one! He sounded like an old friend. Although he hadn't seen each other for more than two years, he didn't seem to have any sympathy at all. He directly joked about Christine and Xi Wei.
