My days as a landlord in Gotham

There is no way for terrestrial organisms to survive in the deep sea. In fact, most organisms cannot survive in such a deep seabed.

But since there is magic, Li Lei certainly has a way to solve it.

Whether it is water-avoiding formula or water-avoiding beads, Li Lei has them all.

Because Li Lei was too lazy to waste mana, he simply embedded a water-proof bead on his belt.

Under the action of the water avoiding beads, a waterless area with a radius of 10 meters appeared around Li Lei's body.

Of course, avoiding water droplets can only separate the water area, and you have to find another way to breathe.

However, when Li Lei's cultivation level reached Li Lei's level, he had already achieved inner breathing, so Li Leisi walked around the Atlantis Empire without hindrance.

The Atlanteans were amazed to see a human being walking so freely.

But seeing that Li Lei's destination was the palace, and at the same time, he was surrounded by the guards of the palace guards, so everyone avoided Li Lei wisely.

Li Lei followed the guards and walked forward slowly, fully enjoying the VIP treatment of a monarchy.

When Li Lei stepped into the palace of the Atlantis Empire for the first time, Li Lei had to secretly scold the successive kings of the Atlantis Empire for being too greedy. It is estimated that most of the precious metals and gemstones in the world are here. !

What is the gold-encrusted toilet of the oil tycoon in the Middle East? The toilet here is probably pure gold!

Moreover, the toilet seat cover is also densely studded with gemstones of various colors. If it is trypophobia, I am afraid that I will pass out in the toilet.

In addition to these precious metals and gems, the palace of the Atlantis Empire is also filled with various works of art from early human civilization.

If these works of art are placed on land, it is estimated that museums around the world will have to break their heads.

Li Lei wondered if he should ask Arthur for some artworks to display in the office when he left.

Oh, by the way, the end of the world is coming soon, and it doesn't make sense to put this kind of artwork on yourself.

"Ray, my friend, welcome to my palace."

After Arthur finished speaking, he gave Li Lei a big hug, which made Li Lei almost think that Arthur was planning to take revenge.

Sure enough, mages will never be able to compare with fighters in terms of physical fitness.

Li Lei complained silently in his heart.

Speaking of being in the Justice League, Arthur was considered aloof and rarely spoke.

But as soon as he arrived at his palace, Arthur suddenly became active, introducing this and that very enthusiastically, and then stuffing a few gems into Li Lei's hand at every turn.

Li Lei estimated that his assets would increase by tens of millions of dollars after this round.

"stop!

Are you bored in your palace, Arthur? "

Li Lei stopped Arthur from continuing to stuff things.

"boring?

How can I be bored?

This is my palace!

The outside is my empire! "

Arthur suddenly raised his voice, but then he said rather disappointedly, "Unfortunately, I feel that I have no connection with my kingdom.

They chose me to be king just because I was my mother's son and I beat my brother, so they had no other choice.

If possible, I would really like to resign from this kingship and become a fisherman or a lighthouse keeper by the sea. "

"His Majesty!

This is not something you should say! "

Just as Arthur was complaining in a low voice, Mela came over.

She greeted Li Lei first, and then said seriously to Arthur, "You are the king of Atlantis, you have the obligation to manage and protect this country and its citizens.

Your mother is so conscientious, so she was loved by the people.

And you?

Are you half as good as your mother?

That's why your people are so suspicious of you! "

"Oh, Mela, aren't you doing well?

After marrying me, you also became queen. "

Arthur said.

The Kingdom of Atlantis adopts a monarchy system similar to that of ancient Egypt. The entire kingdom is jointly governed by a king and a queen, but one of them must have the blood of the royal family of Atlantis.

That is to say, Arthur, who is of royal blood, will automatically become a candidate for the king, and after he ascends the throne and is confirmed as the king, his legal wife can also become the queen of the kingdom.

But if Arthur dies, Mela will lose the queen's qualifications if she remarries, and her remarriage partner will not have any right to inherit the throne.

Similarly, if Mela is of royal blood, Arthur can only become king by marrying Mela; at the same time, he will lose the title of king if he marries after Mela dies.

Like the ancient Egyptian monarchy, Arthur and Mela had their royal supervisor, Nudis, who was not only the royal supervisor, the treasurer, but also the prime minister of the entire kingdom of Atlantis.

With so much power in one body, Li Lei felt that the administrative effectiveness of Atlantis must be low even if he was very talented.

Li Lei originally wanted to suggest whether they should borrow the British constitutional monarchy, but he knew that the people of Atlantis were quite hostile to land humans.

Even the relatively friendly doves like Mela and Nudis are limited to their willingness to communicate with land humans, and it does not mean that they admit that land humans are ahead of them in some aspects.

"By the way, Ray, how are you doing with Blainek?

I heard Arthur say that this person is extremely difficult for you to defeat, even Superman can't do it? "

Mela asked.

Since Mela is not yet a core member of the Justice League, the discussion of some things will naturally not allow Mela to participate.

But Mela is someone close to Arthur, so Mela still has a way to know.

"yes.

I can tell you unabashedly that the earth will definitely be defeated. "

Li Lei replied seriously, "Actually, no civilization can win against Blainek, and the only case of victory is that civilization paid a very heavy price to repel Blainek.

But unfortunately, there is no way to replicate this case, not even Superman's Kryptonian civilization.

Our resistance is just an attitude that means we will not surrender without a fight. "

"I understand.

We, Atlantis, also stand with you land humans, and we will never fall without resistance. "

Mela also answered very seriously.

"However, when I was sorting out the kingdom's historical materials with Nudis recently, we accidentally discovered something that might be helpful to us."

Mela made a guiding gesture, signaling Arthur and Li Lei to follow her.

Mela took Arthur and Li Lei to her private undersea car, and the three got into the car.

Mela started the car and headed towards the southeast, she said: "The southeast is the earliest location of Atlantis, and our seven kingdoms were not divided at that time.

The original appearance of our entry into the underwater world is preserved there, but because of the long history and the inadequacy of our protection measures, most of them have long been ruins.

Later, with the development of Atlantis, we designated it as a historical protection area for protection.

And until recently, we have strictly prohibited anyone from entering.

After all, the most well-preserved place there is the tombs of the kings and queens of Atlantis, and we don't want to disturb their tranquility. "

During Mela's conversation, Li Lei found that the prosperity on the road began to decrease, and some low-rise houses gradually appeared, then the suburbs, and finally a dense forest.

Behind the dense forest, there is a rocky appearance. It seems that this is the "place of origin" mentioned by Mela

Mela also slowly parked her car nearby, and she said: "I'm sorry, there is the guardian magic of the royal family of Atlantis, we can only walk in.

Of course, if Arthur can master all the magic earlier, we may have a more convenient way to enter it. "

After speaking, Mela gave Arthur a blank look, and expressed her dissatisfaction with his laziness again.

Li Lei, who was suddenly offered a handful of dog food, could only touch his nose and followed Mela into the ruins. After investigating with his own consciousness, Li Lei found that it was very similar to the Atlantis described by Plato.

The entire city-state adopts a circular structure, and the closer to the center, the more gorgeous it is.

However, to Li Lei's surprise, there were several places in this seemingly ruined place that could block the scanning of his consciousness.

Li Lei originally wanted to strengthen his spiritual consciousness, but he thought that this was not his territory, so he let it go.

Mela led Li Lei and Arthur slowly towards the center of the ruins.

"Atlantis was a theocracy before it experienced the division of the seven kingdoms, so it is not the royal palace that lives in the center of the ruins, but the main temple of Atlantis."

Mela introduced, "It's a pity that the former style can no longer be seen here, only these ruins are left for future generations to pay tribute to.

However, in the priest's residence behind the temple, I found something very special in historical materials.

I don't think Blainek knew that this thing was hidden on Earth, and it had been hidden for so long. "

Compared with the temple, the priest's residence is relatively well preserved.

In what looked to be a bedroom, Mela inserted an old-fashioned key.

"This key is also a historical relic. If Nudis didn't try his best to find it, I wouldn't know that we still have this key.

If counted, this key can be traced back to what you call the 'age of mythology'. "

Hearing what Mela said, Li Lei felt more and more that he should know what was hidden here.

In fact, he also thought about finding this thing, but he asked Wonder Woman and Arthur separately, but there was no such news.

So Li Lei once thought that there was no such thing in the setting of this universe.

But now, on the ruins of his homeland in Atlantis, he actually found it.

"Let's go, I've checked here, it's very safe.

And importantly, the entire site is protected by royal magic.

No one else can enter here unless the king, queen or whoever they approve of. "

Mela said.

Li Lei and Arthur followed Mela into the secret room opened with an ancient key, and then walked down the stairs.

As the depth increased, Li Lei felt that the temperature was slowly increasing.

And I don't know when, there is no sea water here.

The technology of the ancient kingdom of Atlantis is actually terrifying!

When the stairs finally disappeared, Li Lei was convinced that this should be the transition zone between the crust and the mantle.

The dark red magma was flowing slowly like a big river, and the temperature was so high that even Mela and Arthur couldn't bear it.

The two had to open their protective devices, otherwise they might be dried here.

"That's what I said!"

Mela pointed to an isolated island in the magma river and said, "There is a high platform on it, and this box is placed on the high platform.

In our history books, this box is called the 'mother box'.

There are not many records of it, but all are of its power and the almost nightmarish curse it brings. "
