Chapter 147: Heir Appointment

Newgate was like a kind old grandfather, constantly teasing Alexander.

Little Alexander laughed out loud at Newgate's amusement, and then grabbed Newgate's white beard.

"Oh, my white beard, little ancestor, please don't pull my beard off."

Newgate then takes Dany to the Poseidon Palace.

Along the way, Dany kept looking around, and the architectural style on Neptune Island dazzled her.

Along the main road of Xinghe, the carriage drove smoothly on the cement road, with various shops on both sides.

The houses are also square white houses, more than ten meters high, and they look better than stone houses.

There are ferries set up at regular intervals along the Xinghe River, and green wheat fields can be seen everywhere on both sides of the road.

Daenerys curiously asked Asidoff, "How many people are there on Neptune Island?"

“There are currently 40,000 people and the Seychelles can probably support millions of people.

But since the three cities of Meereen were merged into Atlantis, Neptune Island has no longer actively absorbed the outside population.

However, Neptune Island will be opened in about five years. At that time, outsiders can also move to Neptune Island and just buy a house. "

Asidol briefly talked about the situation on Neptune Island, but Daenerys only understood it half-understood. Many of Jack's policies were incomprehensible to her.

Seemingly seeing what Daenerys was thinking, Asidol smiled and said: "We sometimes don't understand His Majesty's thoughts, but we rarely make mistakes. Even if we make mistakes, we can make up for them in time."

"His Majesty said that practice is the only way out. In any case, we must proceed from reality based on the national strength and development of the empire."

Daenerys nodded. Jack always came up with some strange words that she had never heard before.

"By the way, Your Majesty the Queen, we have withdrawn the Unsullied from Astapor and are preparing to send them to Westeros. Are you going with the fleet, or are you?"

Asidol has already received the news. After sending the child to Neptune Island, Dany is preparing to go to Westeros.

That's why Asildorf asked Daenerys if she would go with the fleet.

Asildoff followed Jack's request and arranged for five thousand Unsullied and fifty officials to go to Westeros for support.

Jack needs manpower to manage the Savages, and some key positions also need to be filled by his own people.

"No need, I'll just ride Drogon over there. The boat ride takes too long, it will take more than a year."

Leader Asidol nodded. Riding a dragon is indeed much faster than taking a boat. It is estimated that it will take less than a week to reach Westeros.

In the evening, Daenerys is sitting in the carriage. She will go to the Temple of Poseidon and be officially canonized as queen in front of the statue of Poseidon.

Alexander's crown prince's canonization and Elizabeth's princess canonization must also be canonized in front of Tanah Lot.

During this afternoon, Daenerys roughly understood the situation in Atlantis.

Even without the three cities of Meereen on the Free Trade Coast, the strength of Atlantis cannot be underestimated.

Even in just a few years, Atlantis will become one of the most powerful forces in the world.

Atlantis's earning power is too strong.

The profits from commodities such as fine salt, Poseidon brew, soap, and glass are very high, and with the expansion of production and caravans, the profits will only increase.

The most important thing is the cement produced in the cement factory, which Daenerys has never heard of.

Cement is cheap but strong and durable. Dani also visited the community where it was built.

The comfort level is comparable to that of a stone castle, and much better than the wooden houses that normal civilians live in.

Before seeing the real thing, even if someone told her that such material existed, she would not believe it.

After arriving at the Temple of Poseidon, Dany looked at the huge trapezoidal altar in stunned silence.

The renovated altar has 99 steps, with a small platform set up every 33 floors, with the Tanah Lot Temple at the top.

In the words of the Atlanteans, you are not even willing to climb the 99 stairs, how dare you say that you are a devout believer?

At this time, the altar was crowded with people. Under everyone's gaze, Daenerys stepped up the stairs step by step with her two children in her arms.

In the end, Daenerys came to the finish line out of breath. Fortunately, Daenerys was in good health, otherwise she would not have been able to climb up.

Newgate solemnly recited the canonization words he had prepared in front of Poseidon, and then hugged Alexander and Elizabeth.

The two little guys were stripped naked by the maids of Poseidon Temple, and then they were placed in a basin.

Because there are stairs on all sides of the altar, except for the stairs in the east direction where the sun rises, which are usually closed, the stairs on the other three sides are open. Many people look at the high platform in the center from the stairs in the south, west, north and south.

However, the canonization place can be seen clearly even at the bottom. Although the altar looks huge, it only has 99 steps.

In front of everyone's eyes, Newgate lit the brazier himself, and in front of everyone's shocked eyes, the two children played in the fire.

When the flames burned out, the two children had turned into black langurs. Newgate picked up the two dolls again and placed them in the seawater pool at the foot of the Poseidon sculpture.

The two children in the water stood up slowly with the help of the buoyancy of the sea water, and curiously looked up at the Poseidon sculpture above the water.

Alexander was curious enough to lick the toes of the Poseidon sculpture.

The two maids walked into the pool, and the water reached the maid's breasts.

Each of them picked up a child, looking at the two babies with burning eyes. They were clearly in the sea water, but they didn't look suffocated or choked by water.

"It seems that His Majesty is usually like this in the water." The sea god's maid holding Alexander thought secretly.

But then Alexander made a move that made her laugh and cry.

Alexander kept exploring between her "giant pandas", as if he wanted to have a meal on the spot.

The sea god's maid wanted to laugh, but in such a solemn occasion, she still let Alexander move around, and then washed the ashes off his body.

Although everyone didn't see what happened in the pool at the foot of the sea god statue, they knew how deep the pool was. If a child was thrown directly into it, he would definitely drown.

But when the sea god's maid waited for ten minutes before picking up the two children, the two children were still alive and kicking.

Seeing this magical scene, everyone couldn't help but kneel down. Daenerys looked at this scene and realized that Alexander and Elizabeth's positions were stable.

It was from then on that the Atlantis royal family added two more conditions to the heirs they selected - not afraid of fire and breathing underwater.

After the enthronement ceremony, Daenerys returned to the Sea King's Palace and handed the two babies to Ashley.

Daenerys's milk was not enough to feed the two little guys at the same time.

In addition, the royal family had the habit of finding a wet nurse, so she had been feeding Alexander and Elizabeth to Ashley for the past few months.

Ashley's milk was very sufficient, and there was even a lot of surplus, and it was because of this that Ashley became the wet nurse of Alexander and Elizabeth.

At this time, Ashley fed three children alone, not only Alexander and Elizabeth, but also her own daughter, Charlotte, who had a small bell tied to her wrist.

If it weren't for the maids, she really couldn't take care of them alone.
