nLost Atlantis 8
nXie Xi was irritated but he didn’t complain.
nNow that he entered the quasi-world and accepted the task, he would go all out.
nHard was hard, perverted was perverted. Once he was big, he would definitely let the big designer taste this!
nThis was the so-called hone a knife to chop wood. Xie Xi carefully studied this Camouflage ability.
nThe original appearance lasted 30 days. It started from the moment it was first activated and wouldn’t stop just because the face wasn’t used.
nThe reserve face was only 30 minutes but the advantage was that it wouldn’t countdown as long as it wasn’t used. It would only start counting down when used. This seemed very useful. There were many things that could be done in 30 minutes.
nXie Xi was puzzled. Once the countdown ended, could he go see the person again and re-record it? Of course, even if it was re-recorded, he couldn’t use the reserve face to collect love.
nImagine that he went to the prince and after half an hour, he said, “Wait minute, I am going out!” Then he swam thousands of miles away to re-record the face, ran back and collected love again!
nTherefore, this technique was limited and only the original appearance could be used.
nCollecting the love of six people in one month…
nXie Xi took a deep breath, his eyes firm. ‘Come on, I can’t be trapped here!’
nTime was tight so he no longer delayed. There were still the gifts to be handed out. He would take the opportunity to run over and see their preferences.
nHe would use his real face for the fifth and sixth prince. As for how to distribute it between 1, 2, 3 and 4, he would try it one by one!
nXie Xi asked Roast Pork Bun, “Which face do you prefer?”
nHe changed between the more mature one and the tender looking one.
nThe kitten was sad. What should he say? They were both equally ugly. It was hard to tell.
nXie Xi was waiting for his advice. “Well?”
nRoast Pork Bun could only blindly pick. “T-This one.” His mother really wasn’t easy. If he grew up like this, how could he marry?
nXie Xi stared at the childish second face in the mirror and said, “Okay, I will use this first.”
nHe hurried to get a gift, grabbed lots and drew the number 3.
nYes, he would go to meet the third prince first.
nXie Xi arrived at the palace of the third prince without much trouble. He just needed to look at the palace to tell the nature of the prince.
nUnlike the luxurious fifth prince and the depressed sixth prince, the third prince’s palace was solemn.
nLike a sharp sword stuck in the bottom of the skill, it gave off a majestic energy that seemed like it could cut apart the sea.
nThe third prince wasn’t easy and his background was extremely poor. As the second prince taunted, his mother was a slave who had nothing apart from her face. After seducing the old king, she failed to be rewarded by the king and was only settled after becoming pregnant.
nNaturally, no one dared discuss these things. Still, the situation of the mother and son must be extremely difficult.
nLater, the third prince was bent on joining the army. Who knew that this delicate prince could kill and play a big role, gaining the support of the army.
nHe was so ruthless that no one dared mention his mother’s affairs, let alone scorn him.
nXie Xi came over and was met by a guard in light armour. “What is it?”
nXie Xi told him, “The holy day is coming and His Majesty commanded me to deliver a gift to the prince.”
nThe guard stared at him before saying, “Come with me.”
nXie Xi wasn’t nervous. The palace was heavily guarded and ordinary people couldn’t enter. Besides, the palace was huge and comparable to a city. It was impossible for the guards to all know each other.
nAlong the way, Xie Xi didn’t dare to look around.
nThe atmosphere here was very different from the fifth prince’s palace. There was a row of straight-backed guards who were like sharp knives, ready to cut the aggressor at any time.
nXie Xi squinted as he walked through a long corridor and stopped at the main hall.
nThe guard said, “Wait a minute, I will report…”
nHe hadn’t finished talking when a clear sound rang through the palace. It was the sound of a collision between gold and stone.
nXie Xi raised an eyebrow and glanced at the guard.
nThe elder guard didn’t dare go in.
nThey could only listen as a scream filled the palace. “Get out, get out of here!:
nThen there were quick footsteps. A man in a military uniform opened the door and ran out.
nThe guard hurriedly stepped aside and bowed. “My lord.”
nThis ‘lord’ was grey-faced and hurriedly nodded. He didn’t even bother looking at Xie Xi as he rushed out.
n“Waste! A bunch of wastes!” The young prince was still angry.
nThere was another crashing sound. He had probably smashed many things.
nThe guard looked at Xie Xi and didn’t dare speak. The general idea was, ‘His Highness is angry, it is better to…’
nXie Xi also felt that the timing wasn’t right and wanted to change princes.
nUnexpectedly, the angry third prince saw the people stuck in the doorway. “What are you doing standing there? Come in!”
nGuard, “!!!!”
nXie Xi, “…”
nThe guard walked forward in trepidation, his legs shaking. “Your, Your Highness…” He almost fell to his knees.
nXie Xi hung his head and could only see the mess on the ground.
nThe previous sound should be the golden tea set being smashed into the jade ground. This was the bottom of the sea. Ordinary things falling wouldn’t make such a loud noise. It was enough to see how angry the third prince was and how much strength he had.
nXie Xi felt a sharp gaze on him, followed by Gars’ clear but ferocious voice, “What is this?”
nXie Xi bowed and repeated his previous words.
nIn the face of the angry prince, everyone present was afraid to make a sound. It seemed like even the decorations hanging in the hall were quiet.
nThere was only Xie Xi’s calm and constant breathing. His words were respectful but they weren’t afraid.
nThe guard by his side couldn’t help sneaking admiring glances towards him.
nAfter a brief silence, the third prince ordered, “Put it down.”
n“Yes.”
nHe handed the gift to the third prince’s guard and prepared to withdraw.
nHe didn’t look up from beginning to end and didn’t say much. Now that he finished the errand, he was going to leave.
n“Wait.”
nJust as Xie Xi was about to withdraw, the third prince opened his mouth.
nXie Xi maintained his respectful gestures. “Your Highness, is there something else that you need?”
nThe third prince stood on the stairs and said in a condescending manner. “Look up.”
nXie Xi forced himself to relax and looked up.
nTwo pairs of eyes met. The third prince’s deep eyes were like beasts staring at their prey.
nIt was reasonable to feel uncomfortable after being looked at like this. If Xie Xi wasn’t here to collect love, he would turn around and leave.
nSo fierce! Who wanted to look at him?
n“What is your name?” The third prince asked him.
nXie Xi had already thought of a name for the second face. “Colin Hall.” Hall was a common surname in the underwater kingdom. It was similar to the king of the former world and there would be little problem.
nThe third prince sneered, “Do you know Sein Hall?”
nXie Xi naturally knew this name but he acted confused. “Your Highness, this subordinate hasn’t heard of it.”
nThe third prince stared at him and remained silent for a long time.
nXie Xi explained, “There are many people among the guards with the surname of Hall. Not all of them are family.” The Hall surname was respected but not everyone was respectable.
nThe third prince knew this and his lips curved, his eyes flashing slightly. “You look a bit like him.”
nXie Xi looked ignorant but his heart was perturbed. Was there a bug in the ability?
nFortunately, it wasn’t that pitted.
nThe third prince added, “Looking closely, it doesn’t feel like it.”
nXie Xi sighed with relief and whispered, “If there is nothing, this subordinate will go back first.”
nThe third prince didn’t say anything.
nXie Xi lowered his head and prepared to leave.
nThen the third prince grabbed him by the wrist. Xie Xi looked up at him in a startled manner, “Your Highness?”
nThe third prince was worthy if inheriting Gars soul. He didn’t say anything, instead reaching out to pinch Xie Xi’s cheek.
nXie Xi, “!”
nHe was so angry that he wanted to smash the entire palace of the third prince. At this moment, the prince laughed, revealing sharp tiger’s teeth. “…It is so soft.” It was softer than the prince expected.
nWho was soft?
nXie Xi’s face hurt but he could only suppress his killing intent. He showed a dazed expression. The third prince released his hand and his face became cold. “Go, I am busy.”
nXie Xi, “…”
nHe bowed and left the third prince’s palace.
nXie Xi touched his face. He sucked in a breath from the pain. His hands were heavy from the desire to hit this spicy chicken soul!
nThe thing that made him truly furious was that the progress bar didn’t respond. It seemed that the third prince didn’t like this second face?
nAs soon as he thought this, he saw a small red square on the progress bar.
nOh, there was a delay.
nXie Xi took out a small book and carefully noted it down.
nOrange Fifth Prince → Sein Hall, 11% progress.
nBlue Sixth Prince → Sein Hall, 4% progress.
nRed Third Prince → Colin Hall, 1% progress.
nThe total progress was 16%.
nRoast Pork Bun probed his thoughts, “Mommy, Daddy, what are you writing?”
nXie Xi put away the book and gazed into the distance. “The foolish Fork strategy.”
nRoast Pork Bun, “???” This was bullying him. He wasn’t illiterate. There was clearly no Fork?
nXie Xi continued to draw lots and next was the second prince. It didn’t matter who was selected. He would first go to attract the second prince like a butterfly.
nThe second prince was very popular.
nHe entered the Ministry of Finance at a young age. With his savvy mind and sleek way of doing things, he became the treasury minister of the kingdom.
nHe frequently showed his face and made many policies to benefit the people. Therefore, he had a high reputation. In the hearts of the ordinary people, he was a well-deserved prince.
nXie Xi thought that this second prince was the most difficult person. Could he really fall for this scum fish?
nXie Xi headed to the palace of the second prince and stated his intentions. The maid who received him stated directly, “Put it down.”
nAll the other princes personally received the king’s gift. It was only the second prince who didn’t show up at all.
nXie Xi reminded, “…The holy day is coming and His Majesty commanded me to deliver a gift to the prince.”
n“The second prince is busy. Please wait here if you don’t mind.” Then the mermaid maid swam away.
nXie Xi, “…” He used the big name. Please don’t forget it.
nHe couldn’t meet the second prince and was planning to change places when the maid suddenly returned.
nThe mermaid had a complicated expression on her face. “His Highness said to please go in.”
nXie Xi was confused. Why was he being let in?
nXie Xi walked into the palace. It fit the second prince’s peacock nature. The palace was very simple but it wasn’t shabby. It had a unique and simple beauty, gorgeous without being extravagant. It gave off a bit of a royal air.
nIt was a great blessing for the treasury minister to be so diligent and thrifty.
nOh, Xie Xi believed it.
nThe second prince was talking with someone else. The prince was really good looking, with long silver hair tucked behind his ears and flowing down his back. His figure was perfectly outlined by his clothing. Every move was elegant and charming, the style of the royal family perfectly interpreted.
nHe was talking to an elderly minister who was wearing expensive clothing. However, he was like a shrimp soldier when compared to the second prince.
nAs soon as Xie Xi entered, the second prince said to the minister, “Let’s end it here today.”
nThe minister got up and gave a salute. “Your Highness has something to do. I will go back first.”
nThe second prince’s smile was as refreshing as a spring breeze. “Thank you for the reminder. I avoided a big mistake.”
n“Where did I…” The minister was sincerely fearful. “It is the second prince who is discerning and thinking of the people.”
nThe second prince smiled and the two of them exchanged polite words. The minister was dizzy and saluted with sincere emotion.
nXie Xi’s sharp eyes saw the disdain and contempt in the prince’s eyes after the minister left.
nSure enough, this was a black heart!
nHe was probably called in to get rid of the old man.
nUnsurprisingly, the second prince didn’t smile once there was no one left in the hall. He didn’t look at Xie Xi and said to the maid, “Arrange the next ceremony.”
n“Okay.” The maid said with a low bow.
nThe second prince, who could speak well, didn’t say anything to Xie Xi. He only waved his hands.
nXie Xi, “…”
nNot even looking at him? Slag fish!
nXie Xi couldn’t open his mouth. He could only leave the gift and prepared to leave.
n“That’s right.” The second prince’s lazy voice was heard. “Have you been to the third prince?”
nXie Xi thought about it and opened his mouth. “Your Highness, I have just been there.”
nThe second prince raised his eyebrows and he stared at Xie Xi. “Look up.”
nXie Xi slowly looked up at the second prince.
nThe second prince watched him for a while. Then he smiled and said, “What is your name?” He got up and walked down the stairs.
nXie Xi told the name of the second face.
nThe second prince smiled. “It is the Hall family again.”
nXie Xi was silent as he waited for this psychopath to do something.
nThe second prince lived up to his expectations and reached out to hug him, saying gently, “You are really good looking. How about staying with me?”
nXie Xi was speechless. Who wanted to be with this slag fish?
nXie Xi was about to open his mouth when he heard the shouts of the shrimp soldiers. “Third Prince, Third Prince, please wait. The second prince is in a meeting with someone and it is inconvenient…”
nBang!
nThe door opened and the third prince stood there. “What do you mean by a war in the north…”
nHis voice stopped and he squinted at the two men standing close together.
nThe second prince surrounded the small mermaid, his movements gentle and his voice slow. “Younger brother, you went to the army for a few years. Did you basic manners disappear?”
nXie Xi was held by the second prince and wanted to break free, only to find he couldn’t move!
nRoast Pork Bun was screaming from the sidelines. “Oh my god, Mommy is being strongly hugged.”
nStrong… what strong?
nXie Xi really wanted to cook this Roast Pork Bun!
