Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

"Doctor Warfarin, do you know where Director Kelsey is? The ghost shark patient went berserk and seems to have hurt someone."

"Who! I'll go, I know." Warfarin knew something was wrong as soon as he heard it, and quickly took out his phone from his pocket.

"Hey! Kal'tsit, something happened! That ghost shark went berserk and hurt someone!"

---------

"Where is the location? What's the situation?" Kal'tsit came to the medical department with a frown on her face.

A doctor said, "I don't know. Suddenly, there was a loud noise. When I turned around, I saw the ghost shark patient and another person crashing through the wall."

"The other doctors didn't dare to get close, but now there seems to be no movement."

"You were right not to get close." Kal'tsit nodded.

When she came here, she checked PRTS and found out that it was Skadi who opened the door. Although she didn't know why the ghost shark went berserk and hurt people, maybe Skadi has controlled the ghost shark now, so the situation doesn't seem to be that...

Kal'tsit stopped moving suddenly and looked in the direction in front of her. The corridor in front of her had taken on a bluish hue.

"What's wrong, Kal'tsit?" Warfarin on the side looked at Kal'tsit who suddenly stopped.

“Stay here and don’t move.” Kal’tsit’s eyes became serious, and the situation seemed to have become particularly complicated.

"What happened?"

"Don't ask. Knowing too much will do you no good. Stay here." Kal'tsit stared at Warfarin and said, "Let everyone leave this area."

"...Okay, I understand." Warfarin looked at Kal'tsit and nodded.

"Hmm..." Kal'tsit took a deep breath and walked into the corridor in front of her.

Mon3tr suddenly appeared next to Kal'tsit and sent a warning signal to Kal'tsit.

"I know, but I have to go and take a look. I hope the situation won't be worse than I thought." Kal'tsit looked at the quiet corridor in front of her.

Now Kal'tsit would rather it be more lively inside, with some sounds of fighting, even if it means tearing the place down. But the current silence makes Kal'tsit very nervous.

Kal'tsit stood in front of the wall that the ghost shark had knocked open, took a deep breath, and walked in through the crack. As soon as she walked over, Kal'tsit saw Skadi standing beside her.

Kal'tsit looked at Skadi, who seemed not to notice her coming, and took a deep breath: "Skadi?"

"Hmm?" Skadi heard someone calling her from behind, so she turned around and saw it was Kal'tsit. She raised her hand and greeted, "Good afternoon, Dr. Kal'tsit."

Seeing that Skadi seemed to be still normal, Kal'tsit was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but Mon3tr at the side gave a warning roar to the front, and the crystal spikes that served as arms kept hooking Kal'tsit to make her retreat.

Kal'tsit subconsciously looked forward, and only now did she realize that she had overlooked something. It was the thing right in front of her, but she subconsciously ignored it and didn't look at it.

Then Kal'tsit saw a girl wearing a black windbreaker, holding a ghost shark in her arms, and stroking the girl's hair with a gentle look on her face.

It seemed like a warm scene, but Mon3tr behind Kal'tsit kept roaring in fear at the girl in front of him.

"Who are you?" Kal'tsit stared at Xiyue who was holding the ghost shark in front of her, "You, who are you?!"

Chapter 58: Doctor

Kal'tsit stared at Xiyue in front of her. The girl with a gentle face made Kal'tsit feel suffocated as if she was drowning.

Newborn? No, Kal'tsit knew the first time she saw Xiyue that if there was a newborn in front of her, she might feel lucky.

The ocean-like atmosphere around them was definitely not something a newborn could do. Even Kal'tsit could feel the humidity in the air with just the slightest movement of her fingertips.

A giant beast? Not really. Kal'tsit had seen one before, but the aura of the other party...

That kind of warm feeling, even if you stand here without feeling it, your whole body can feel the warm sunshine shining on you, and you want to relax and immerse yourself in the feeling here.

And if you look through Mon3tr next to you, Kal'tsit can also feel that the Originium dust in the surrounding air is gradually receding outwards, as if... being driven away.

Then, Kal'tsit saw Xiyue raise her head and look into the blue eyes under her messy hair.

The next moment, Kal'tsit felt as if her feet were empty, as if she had fallen into the boundless ocean, and a warm breath instantly surrounded her.

Kal'tsit tried her best to stay awake. Suddenly, she felt like she was pushed and heard Mon3tr's voice in her ears.

At the same time, Kal'tsit felt that she was back on the ground, and the feeling of falling into the ocean just now seemed like an illusion.

Kal'tsit rubbed her fingers gently, feeling the water droplets between them.

Xiyue looked at Kal'tsit with a smile: "Hello, Dr. Kal'tsit, my name is Xiyue."

"I'm sorry, this kid caused some commotion." Xiyue touched the hair of the ghost shark in her arms, "But can you please be quiet now?"

Xiyue turned her head slightly and looked at Mon3tr who kept roaring: "And you too, please keep quiet."

Mon3tr, who was stared at by Xiyue, uttered a sad groan and then made no other sound.

Seeing that the two of them had calmed down, Xiyue nodded, reached out and gently lifted up Ghost Shark's clothes from behind, stroking her back.

Kal'tsit stared at Xiyue closely. She was now extremely sure that the other party was neither a newborn nor a giant beast. The scene just now was difficult even for a giant beast to achieve.

Moreover, that feeling as if it were the origin of life was not something that a giant beast could possess. Kal'tsit had seen some giant beasts that used life as their power. After coming into contact with the ocean of illusion, Kal'tsit could immediately discover the difference.

But, if it is not a newborn, and it is not a giant beast, then what is it? What kind of crazy thing has been born on this land?

Xiyue ignored Kal'tsit's gaze and stroked the ghost shark's back: "This is a terrible situation..."

Xiyue could feel that a large amount of high-purity Originium solution was injected into the ghost shark's spinal cord. If all of that Originium solution was extracted, it would be enough to infect an entire city. Even just one drop would be enough to cause hundreds of ordinary Terrans to suffer from severe infection symptoms.

This Originium solution almost completely replaced the Ghost Shark's cerebrospinal fluid. It can be said that if it were not for the Deep Sea Hunter's transformation surgery, the Ghost Shark would have long since turned into a giant Originium crystal with powerful infectious capabilities.

However, the sea cells injected during the transformation surgery have their limits after all. The Originium solution constantly infects the Ghost Shark's nervous system, damaging her physical functions as well as her spirit.

Compared to the general infected, their mineral sickness attacks usually have a certain regularity, and they will have a certain amount of time to catch their breath or take painkillers to resist the pain.

But Ghost Shark is different. She suffers from pain like a mineral sickness attack all the time. Even painkillers are almost ineffective against her because of her physical condition.

"What a strong child..." Xiyue touched the ghost shark's head, "Please be patient for a while."

Xiyue slightly adjusted the posture of the ghost shark in her arms so that he could lean better on her body, and then Xiyue placed her hand on the place that she perceived was the least infected.

Then, under Kal'tsit's surprised gaze, Xiyue's hand seemed to become transparent and reached directly into the ghost shark's back.

"Ah!!!" The moment Xiyue's hand reached out, the ghost shark that was originally lying quietly in Xiyue's arms suddenly jumped up.

"It's okay, it's okay." Xiyue tightly suppressed the ghost shark that wanted to leave her arms. You know, Xiyue's hand was holding the ghost shark's spine. If the ghost shark moved around now, if Xiyue missed, it would be a big problem.

The ghost shark, which was not fully awake yet, instinctively wanted to stay away from the place that made it painful, but when it found that it could not leave, it subconsciously wrapped its legs tightly around Xiyue's waist and hugged Xiyue with both hands.

To others, this seemed like a heartwarming scene, but to Xiyue, the ghost shark was using too much strength.

If Xiyue guessed correctly, the ghost shark might not be asking for a hug, but wanted to kill the thing that made her feel pain, that is, Xiyue.

If Ghost Shark's hand had not been stuck in position, Ghost Shark would probably not have hugged Xiyue, but would have put his hand directly on Xiyue's neck.

"Hmm?" Xiyue lowered her head slightly and looked at the ghost shark that was biting her neck.

Well, it seems that her neck still couldn't escape the ghost shark's clutches.

"Sigh..." Xiyue sighed helplessly. She didn't mind the ghost shark doing this if it made her feel at ease.

Xiyue turned her attention back to the ghost shark's back. Compared to her, the patient now was more important.

Xiyue slowly guided the Originium solution into her liquefied hands, and at the same time used water to slowly peel off the tiny Originium crystals clinging to the spine.

After treating a small area, Xiyue began to remove the infected tissues.

"Hmm...?" Under the repeated torture of pain, the ghost shark began to gradually become sober, but there was still no light in its eyes.

Xiyue noticed the ghost shark raising its head. Now Xiyue had no time to be distracted. She had to help the ghost shark recover the infected tissue that she had cleared little by little.

This job is extremely tiring, but if it is not done properly, it is not medical treatment, but an accident, just like the ghost shark's legs that are now drooping limply.

After a long while, Xiyue pulled her hand out of the ghost shark's body. Xiyue looked at the bright yellow color in her transparent hand. It was the Originium solution that Xiyue had extracted from the ghost shark's body.

As for the cleaned-up Originium fragments, they were completely polished away by Xiyue with water, and turned into fine dust and was also taken out by Xiyue. Xiyue looked at the Originium solution in her hand, shook her wrist casually, and threw out the water ball wrapped in the Originium solution.

After dealing with the Originium solution in her hand, Xiyue took off the ghost shark that was still lying on her and placed it on the bed beside her.

"Hello, Miss Ghost Shark." Xiyue looked into Ghost Shark's eyes and raised her hand to greet her.

"Greetings, ocean, my supreme lord." The ghost shark looked at the setting moon, and a ray of faith was revealed in his originally dull eyes.

Xiyue nodded, then gently lifted the ghost shark's left knee joint: "Don't be nervous, relax the muscles of your lower limbs."

After a while, Xiyue nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, let's do this for the first stage of treatment. You need..."

"Thank you, beautiful doctor?" Just when Xiyue put down the ghost shark's legs, the ghost shark suddenly sat up, hooked his hands around Xiyue's neck and pulled Xiyue over, then whispered softly in her ear.

Before Xiyue could do anything, Skadi rushed over and looked at the ghost shark lying on the bed with surprise: "Shark, are you awake?"

"Skadi, you brought me an incredible doctor." Ghost Shark smiled at Skadi who was approaching and glanced at Xiyue beside him.

"She's not..." Skadi opened her mouth but couldn't figure out how to explain.

"I know, I know, it's incredible..." Ghost Shark lay on the hospital bed and looked at Xiyue who went out with Kal'tsit.

————Medical Department Corridor————

Xiyue thought that Ghost Shark and Skadi must have a lot to talk about, so she tactfully pulled Kal'tsit, who had been staring at her from the beginning, out of the ward.

"Let me formally introduce myself." Xiyue took out her Penguin Logistics ID card from inside her clothes. "Penguin Logistics medical operator, my name is Xiyue, nice to meet you, Doctor Kal'tsit."

Kal'tsit glanced at the work badge in Xiyue's hand and the armband on her windbreaker, wondering what the emperor was up to. She stepped back slightly, bowed, and said, "You know, this is not the identity I want to know."

When Kal'tsit heard Ghost Shark's way of addressing Xiyue, a bold guess gradually came up in her mind, and this guess was even a little crazy.

But as soon as this conjecture came up, Kal'tsit felt a great sense of trust in him.

Xiyue looked at Kal'tsit with a smile: "What if I say it's just as you think?"

"……ocean."

Xiyue just smiled at Kal'tsit. The feathers on her head had transformed into dragon horns at some point, and the dragon tail behind her was sliding freely on the ground.

Kal'tsit looked at Xiyue's appearance and sighed. Her guess was confirmed, and Kal'tsit finally knew what kind of crazy thing had been born on this land.

The ocean, an important component of the planet Terra, gave birth to its own will.

Kal'tsit opened her mouth, as if she had a thousand words in her heart, but she seemed unable to say anything.

"That identity is not particularly important to me. Of course, it must be very important to you, right?" Xiyue changed back to her Liberi look, and smiled at Kal'tsit who was hesitant to speak. "To me, I am more of a doctor."

Xiyue patted Kal'tsit's shoulder and said, "However, for you, there may be another issue that you can rest assured about."

Kal'tsit was silent for a while and then nodded. Yes, Haisi’s problem should have been solved, but the problem is that now there is a bigger problem!

"Okay, okay, don't worry about it. I'm a doctor. I'm good for you."

"..." Kal'tsit looked at Xiyue for a long time and was speechless. Finally, she sighed and nodded, "I understand. You are a doctor. This is good for everyone."

"Really?" Xiyue smiled, then looked towards the corner of the corridor, "It seems someone is here to worry about Dr. Kal'tsit."

Hearing this, Kal'tsit turned around and saw a pair of brown rabbit ears poking out from the corner. Then a girl poked her head out from the corner and looked at Kal'tsit.

"Amiya, why did you come in?" Kal'tsit frowned at Amiya.

"Dr. Kal'tsit has been here for an hour and there has been no movement. I'm very worried." Amiya walked out from the corner and looked at Kal'tsit.

"Here..." Kal'tsit wanted to explain to Amiya that it was very dangerous here, but when the words came to her lips, she saw Xiyue beside her and said, "Forget it, it's nothing. How much did you hear?"

"Ms. Xiyue's true identity? I heard everything." Amiya nodded to Kal'tsit and turned to look at Xiyue, "Hello, Miss Xiyue or Miss Xinyi."

"Hello, Miss Amiya, just call me Xiyue." Xiyue smiled and extended her hand to Amiya, then looked at Kal'tsit, "Look, this little rabbit knows more than you."

"Well, little rabbit or something..." Amiya also reached out and held Xiyue's hand, "Please don't call me that, Miss Xiyue."

"Okay~ I understand, Miss Amiya~" Xiyue reached out and rubbed Amiya's head, then suddenly remembered something, "By the way, I can't use this, look at it, do you want it?"

A ball of water floating in the air nearby floated over. Amiya looked at the ball of water floating in the air and asked, "Miss Xiyue, what is this?"

"A small amount of high-purity Originium solution extracted from the ghost shark's body." Xiyue pointed to the bright yellow liquid in the center of the water mass, "I can't use this."

“Um…” Amiya turned to look at Kal’tsit, and when she saw Kal’tsit nod, Amiya looked at Xiyue, “Then I’ll trouble you, Doctor Xiyue.”

Xiyue nodded, stretched out her hand and touched the water ball. The water ball quickly froze at the point of contact and trapped the Originium solution in the middle. Xiyue then casually threw it to Kal'tsit.

Xiyue watched Kal'tsit take it and then turned around and walked back to the ward: "Then you guys chat, I'll go see my patients."

Kal'tsit looked at the ice ball, sighed helplessly, and put it in her pocket. As for safety, Kal'tsit felt that even if she threw the ice ball into the lava, it would not melt, so there was no need to worry about this now.

"I really don't know what to say to describe the madness of this land." Kal'tsit looked at the ward, "Even the ocean has given birth to its own will."

"I think Miss Xiyue is a good person."

Kal'tsit nodded. She did not doubt Amiya's judgment but still warned: "But the good and evil of God cannot be judged so easily, Amiya."

"I understand, Dr. Kal'tsit." Amiya nodded and said, "But like Miss Xiyue said, she is a doctor, which is good for both of us."
