VCRMM: Chapter 255

The Starry Sky stopped above Roland Palace.

The huge spaceship blocked out the sky and the sun like a dormant ancient beast. Its fangs might’ve been retracted but it still gave people a heavy pressure.

Queen Heidi led her people and walked into the Roland Palace, but their attention was attracted by the spaceship above their heads.

She couldn’t help wondering. If this spaceship fell down, what would be the chances of them escaping successfully? In addition to its huge size, did this spaceship have any other capabilities?

In addition…

Could it dive into the sea and fight against the giant beasts in the sea?

After not being on land for nearly a hundred years, Queen Heidi discovered that the land had undergone tremendous changes.

The architectural style of the palace was still the old Roland style, but when her spiritual strength extended outside the palace, she could easily find all types of differences.

Just the floating cars gave her quite a shock.

It was because she discovered that most of the people driving these strange items were ordinary people. There were very few elementalists among them.

She knew that there were alchemists among the human race.

They could create all types of strange and bizarre items, but these things could basically only be used by people who mastered elemental power. Ordinary people couldn’t control these magical alchemical items at all.

Now, that perception had been overturned.

It was clear that despite the continent suffering from an invasion of the alien beasts, their development had far exceeded her imagination.

Everything in the Roland Empire was much better than the precarious sea elf race. The human race, which was once despised by the ancient rare races, had become the brightest pearl on Escher Star.

Queen Heidi was in a complicated mood, but she couldn’t help looking forward to it.

If His Majesty Roland could really fulfill his promise then…

The sea elves might really be saved!

Queen Heidi no longer hoped to recover the lost territory of the sea elves. She only hoped to preserve the Tree of Life, protect all the remaining members of the clan, and continue the hope of the race.

If His Majesty could really do this, she would offer her loyalty without reservation!

Just then, the Starry Sky’s hatch opened.

Two shuttles flew down from it, slowly stopping in the square in front of the main hall of the palace.

Queen Heidi saw stairs being slowly lowered from this strange flying item. Two figures, one tall and one short, walked down to the ground.

“It is Brother Joan!”

Sea Song, who was standing next to her, suddenly jumped up happily and waved over there excitedly.

He didn’t run over because his mother was around, but he was still very happy to see the playmate whom he hadn’t seen for many days.

Joan soon discovered him.

Then when he saw the women surrounding Sea Song. Each of them had a peerless appearance, and the one standing next to Sea Song wasn’t inferior to his mother.

Who were they?

A look of doubt flashed across Joan’s face. Then he soon walked over with Val, surrounded by guards.

“Brother Joan!” Seeing him approaching, Sea Song ran to him happily. Sea Song’s face was full of the joy of reunion after a long absence.

Joan bent down and hugged him, also with a smile on his face.

“Sea Song, why are you here? What about Asheng?”

Thanks to Chamo’s reminder, Queen Heidi realized that the two people in front of her were the eldest princess and the youngest prince of the Roland Empire.

They had just returned from an interstellar voyage.

Queen Heidi’s aura softened when she saw the intimate interaction between Sea Song and His Highness Joan.

She had always been worried that her son was suffering outside. Now, she finally believed that he was living a good life. He was lucky to meet someone who liked and loved him.

Moreover, they were rescued from the abyss of the sea.

After knowing that these were Sea Song’s clan members, Joan was also very happy.

He knew that Sea Song always missed home.

Unexpectedly, during the two months he was away, his older brother helped Sea Song find his clan members and rescued them!

Joan felt a bit regretful that his imperial brother no longer needed his protection, but this emotion gradually turned into admiration.

Now, this feeling of worship and admiration was even stronger. Was there anything in this world that his imperial brother couldn’t do?

He didn’t know if his imperial brother’s strength had increased again after two months?

The two juniors were whispering to each other. Meanwhile, Val was already talking to Queen Heidi. Both of them were career-oriented women. They deliberately tried to make friends and soon had a good conversation with each other.

Thus, at Val’s invitation, the sea elves followed Val and Joan to the hall to meet the emperor of Roland.

Queen Heidi saw the blond-haired man next to the emperor and finally understood what Chamo meant by unfathomable.

This was a terrifying existence whose specific strength she couldn’t perceive. The feeling he gave her was even more terrifying than the deep sea beasts.

Fortunately, everything went well.

Roland’s little emperor didn’t embarrass them. His attitude could even be said to be kind and friendly.

“I won’t interfere with your internal affairs.”

Just like the forest elves, Xu Sili had no intention of seizing power.

“The sea elf land isn’t suitable for living at the moment, so I will allocate a piece of territory for you.”

“Within this territory, you can still follow the previous rules and exercise your power. I also promise that no human will disturb you.”

“However, when you enter the human race’s territory, you must also abide by the human race’s laws and rules.”

“Regarding this part, perhaps you can communicate with the elders of the forest elves. You should be old friends.”

Queen Heidi’s anxious heart finally settled down a bit. She lowered her head slightly, bowed respectfully and expressed her gratitude. Then she talked about another issue that concerned her the most.

“Your Majesty, regarding the land of the sea elves… do you have any plans or intentions?”

She knew that this was a bit too much, but the words of the brave called Qing Yan kept echoing in her eyes.

Since they had set up a teleportation circle on the seabed, it would be impossible for them to give up on the land of the sea elves so easily.

Xu Sili knew how much they valued the Tree of Life and didn’t keep them in suspense. He said, “Next, I will send a garrison to the land of the sea elves to protect the Tree of Life.”

“The materials for the protective circle have also been prepared. Once you settle down, I will send a magic circle master to the land of the sea elves to draw the protective circle.”

“However, it isn’t easy to draw a magic circle on the seabed and it might take some time. Once it is successfully activated, the Tree of Life will at least have a layer of protection.”

Compared to the original large-scale magic circle where the sea elves lived, this protective circle was probably less effective but it would be better than the current situation where the Tree of Life was directly exposed to seawater.

Xu Sili pondered on it for a moment.

“Due to the current special nature of the territory of the sea elves, it will temporarily be under the joint jurisdiction of the sea elves and the human race. Once the sea is completely recovered, the human race will withdraw from the territory of the sea elves and return the jurisdiction to you.”

“A more detailed recovery plan needs to be agreed upon separately.”

Queen Heidi stared at him blankly. “Your Majesty, you just said… to reclaim the sea?”

“That’s right.”

The young emperor nodded and said with full confidence, “No matter whether it is the sea or the land, it all belongs to the Roland Empire. Sooner or later, we will drive all the interstellar beasts out of our homeland.”

“The territory of the sea elves is our first step toward the sea.”

Looking at his determined expression, Queen Heidi’s mood became extremely complicated.

She wasn’t very clear about the situation on land, but the sea… she thought it was a fantasy and something that was impossible to accomplish.

But…

If this was really possible…

Queen Heidi… no, she should be called Chief Heidi now. She led her people to kneel on one knee on the ground and solemnly swore allegiance to the emperor on the throne!

Xu Sili was very satisfied with Heidi’s knowledge of current affairs. He gave them a lot of autonomy to let the sea elves choose the new territory on their own. In the end, they chose…

The back hill of the Elementalist Academy.

This was probably the fledgling complex. The moment the sea elves entered the bottom of the lake from the deep sea and opened their eyes to see the sunlight was deeply imprinted in their hearts.

In their opinion, that place was the most beautiful.

Even if it was just a lake with an area of only a few hundred square kilometers.

In any case, there were only 30 or so sea elves left. Living in the lake was more than enough, not to mention the land on the shore.

In order to make it easier for them to go ashore and change clothes, Xu Sili also ordered Chi Yu to design houses for them personally, as well as a variety of living facilities.

There was another advantage to living on the back hill of the Elementalist Academy. The teleportation circle leading to the forest elf canyon was also located there.

Both races were branches of the elves and were related by blood. They had a good relationship with each other and could take care of each other since they were close.

For this reason, the two current elf chiefs had a very friendly exchange.

Of course, due to Asheng’s age, it was mainly the elders and Heidi who talked, exchanged information and discussed how to help the sea elves overcome difficulties.

Seeing that Heidi was still frowning, Elder Witchell comforted her. “Heidi, please believe in His Majesty Roland. He is a ruler who is good at creating miracles.”

Heidi took a deep breath and nodded.

“I understand. Grandpa Witchell, thank you.”

Her eyes were slightly moist. “I didn’t expect to see you again after so many years… Your presence has given me great encouragement and confidence.”

“Besides what you have said before, is there anything else you want to tell me? What else should I pay attention to when living in the Roland Empire?’

Elder Witchell hesitated for a moment before saying solemnly, “If you really want to live on this land or if you really want to regain your clan’s land, you must remember one thing.”

“This is very, very important.”

Queen Heidi’s expression became more serious. She sat upright and listened attentively.

“Please give me advice.”

Elder Witchell looked around, somewhat cautious. He lowered his voice and said seriously, “In the words of the braves— You must be sure to hug His Majesty’s thighs tightly.”
