Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

Chapter 66: Night Teaching

"Oh, we have hotpot today!" As soon as Exia and Croissant entered the door, they smelled a spicy smell. As experienced foodies, they immediately figured out what that smell might be.

So the two of them looked towards the dining table, and saw that the hot pot on the table was bubbling. Visible heat was rising in the air, bringing with it a spicy smell that spread throughout the room.

"Oh, you two are back." Xiyue turned her head from the sofa and looked at the two people who had just come in. "Wait a minute, Kong is still on the way. We can eat later."

"OK~"

—————Slums——————

"Boss." In a dark room, a younger brother walked in timidly and looked at the four figures sitting at the table.

One of the figures turned around and looked at the younger brother who had just come in: "How is it? Did you find them?"

"No, w-nothing." The younger brother reported to the boss in front of him timidly, "We only found the car they drove out, but nothing else."

"Not to mention people, even the bodies have not been found." The younger brother lowered his head, not daring to look at his boss, who had eyes that almost did not want to kill. "There are some signs of fighting in the factory building next to it, but there is still nothing."

Suddenly there was a sound of glass breaking, and the flying fragments hit the younger brother's face, but the younger brother just lowered his head further, not daring to look at his boss.

"You idiot, tell me, where did those 80-odd people go? Were they eaten?!"

"There are only six people in Penguin Logistics. Tell me, how did they deal with those 80-plus brothers?"

The man tried to grab the cup next to him and throw it at the younger brother, but a figure on the other side grabbed his arm and said, "Black Hat, this is my cup, put it down."

"Tsk." Black Hat curled his lips and put down the cup in his hand. "What's wrong? Blade Face, aren't you anxious? The Guards have set up sentry boxes in the slums."

"Of course I am anxious, although I don't know why the Rat King remained silent about this matter." Knife Face looked around, "But everyone is sitting here because they don't want to be governed by the Guards, right?"

"Nonsense!" A figure sitting opposite slapped the table, "If it weren't for this, why would I be here?"

"Dogtooth, be patient."

"Hey, why aren't you in a hurry, Mouse?" Fang looked at the last short figure, "I remember that post is right next to your territory, right?"

"Humph, use your brains and think about it. You don't really think that the six people from Penguin Logistics can beat our 80 brothers, do you?"

"Hmm?" Dao Lian raised an eyebrow when he saw the mouse, "What you said is quite interesting."

"Hmph! Two fists are no match for four hands. They can beat 80 people, there must be a reason." The mouse tapped the table with his fingers, "For example, they got the help of the Rat King."

"..."

For a moment, the room fell into silence, and then Canine Fang curled his lips: "What do you mean, are you trying to say that the Rat King betrayed the slums?"

"Well, what reason do you think they have to defeat them? Even if they really have the ability to fight ten people alone." Mouse looked at Fang, "Then how did they manage to make those 80 people disappear?"

Mouse looked at the silent crowd and said, "There is only one explanation. Someone helped them clean up the battlefield. Who in this downtown area would help the now notorious Penguin Logistics?"

"So you want to say that the Rat King helped them?" Black Hat pulled away and sat back in front of the table. "That seems to explain why the Rat King turned a blind eye to this matter."

"He was bribed and he betrayed us slums." Knife Face pounded the table.

Mouse waved his hand, calming down the angry crowd again: "Okay, okay, my friends, I have another idea. Since we can't take forceful action against Penguin Logistics, we can also use something else."

After saying that, the mouse threw something out of the bag on the ground and onto the table.

"what is this?"

"It's a bomb, a homemade bomb, not very powerful." Mouse pointed at the thing and explained to everyone, "Of course, this is not the most important thing."

"I put some Originium fragments in it. I think you know what I mean." Mouse smiled at everyone, "Doesn't the doctor like to save people?"

"Who do you want to bomb?"

"This is it~"

—————Penguin Logistics Headquarters——————

"Oh, that was a close call. My agent almost didn't let me come back." Kong pushed open the door and casually hung his scarf on the rack at the door.

"If you can't come back, you can call in advance. It's not like you won't have anything to eat in the evening." Xiyue looked at Kong who had just pushed the door open.

"Why would you eat the lunch box provided by the company when you have hot pot?" Kong put his hands on his hips and looked at Xiyue, "It's not as delicious as yours."

"Okay, okay, let's put this matter aside for now." Angelus stood up, "The more important issue now is to boil the pot!"

"Okay, okay, let's open the pot." Xiyue smiled and looked at the Archangel who was staring at the hot pot in front of him with his eyes glowing.

Soon, the hot pot was boiling, but at the same time, a brutal war began, although without the smoke of gunpowder.

"Where's the meat roll I just put in? Who ate it?"

"That piece of tripe will be mine later!"

"You are right, Angel, but those who are slow will lose!"

This is a war without smoke.

"Wait a minute, the meatballs are not cooked yet!"

"Who said that? I saw you were down there for quite a while, and you finally came up!"

“These are the fish balls I ordered.”

But this is also a war full of intrigue.

Xiyue slowly scooped up a meatball from the clear soup and watched the other three people fighting fiercely in the red soup area.

"That's great. Come, Hong, be careful of the heat." Xiyue quickly snatched a meatball from Hongtang and put it in the bowl of Hong, who liked spicy food.

"thanks Mom."

"Ah, those are my meatballs." Angel glared at Xiyue, "Those who drink clear soup are not allowed to join our war."

"What does it matter? Anyway, your war has reached the point where one more of me doesn't make much, and one less of me doesn't make any difference." Xiyue looked at the Archangel nonchalantly, and without slowing down, she scooped up a meatball from the red soup and put it into her mouth as if in a provocation.

Xiyue glanced at the table and found that most of the plates on the table were empty. Then she looked at everyone and said, "Are you full? Do you want another round?"

"More of course!"

"Okay, okay." Xiyue stood up and walked towards the kitchen. After a while, a new round of dishes was placed on the table. It was obvious that this war seemed to have to continue for a while, and there would probably be a second war in the evening.

—————Iberia Coastal Defense Line——————

Elini leaned on the trench and raised her hand. A stream of water slowly moved upward from her elbow and gathered in the palm of her hand. The water ball in her hand began to emit a little bit of faint blue light.

The light gradually grew brighter, soon overpowering the lantern that Elini had placed nearby for illumination. In the areas illuminated by the light, the marks on the ground that had not yet been cleared away by other judges seemed to be stirring.

Suddenly, a bright light shone over, and the dark marks on the ground faded away.

Elini raised her head to see the direction where the light came from: "Ah, teacher."

"Yeah." Dario nodded, then looked at the glowing water ball in Elini's hand, "Still practicing?"

"Yeah." Elini nodded, "Maybe if I practice this spell to a high enough level, I can help my comrades restore their broken limbs, so I have to practice harder."

Dario nodded, his tone full of emotion: "At first I didn't expect that you actually have a talent for healing spells."

"It's all taught well by teachers."

"That's true." Dario waved his hand. "At most, I taught you how to fight. Your talent is your talent."

Just as Elini was about to say something, she noticed out of the corner of her eye that the bracelet on her wrist was emitting a glimmer of light.

"Oh, Master Xiyue, why are you here so early today? It's not even midnight yet." Elini looked at the glowing bracelet and felt a little strange.

"What's wrong, Elini?" Dario looked at Elini strangely who suddenly stopped talking.

"No, there is no teacher. I just feel that I need to practice harder." Elini immediately shook her head, "I want to help my comrades."

Dario nodded. "I believe you can do it, but it can't be rushed."

"Hai Si hasn't appeared for almost half a month. Is the attack over?" Elini looked at the sea and wiped the bracelet without leaving a trace.

This meant that she agreed to the dream link, but she still needed some time to prepare, such as getting her teacher away or finding a quieter environment for herself.

"I don't know. This strange attack ended more suddenly than it started." Dario shook his head. "Attack for no reason, and no reason not to kill anyone. I have no idea what they were thinking."

Dario suddenly laughed out loud as he spoke: "Perhaps what those crazy people from the Deep Sea Church said makes sense. They want to find something. Ha, crazy talk."

"Anyway, Elini, be alert. This ocean is starting to get stranger." Dario raised his lantern and walked away along the trench.

"I understand, teacher." Elini nodded as she watched the teacher leave, then sat down again against the trench.

——————Dreamland——————

"Lord Xiyue, I'm here." Elini looked at Xiyue in front of her.

"You're here." Xiyue looked up at Elini, "Cute little bird~"

"Um~" Ailini blushed and looked at Xiyue who was smiling, "Please don't call me like that."

"It's obviously a cute little bird. It said it could call me like this if I like it." Xiyue had a sly smile on her face. After all, who doesn't want to see a little bird blushing and listen to the little bird say some tsundere words?

"But~" Xiyue looked at the blushing bird and smiled, "If you want me to change my words, why don't you let the cute bird change its words first?"

"After all, I remember saying that you can just call me Xiyue."

"Well……"

Xiyue smiled as she watched the bird's face grow redder and redder. She didn't know if it was more of a subconscious thing in the dream, but the bird here seemed particularly easy to be teased.

Just tease it a little bit and you will get a little bird that will turn into a steam engine.

"Hmm~" Xiaoniao's face turned redder and she looked at Xiyue with a red face, "Miss Xi...Xiyue."

"You still haven't completely changed your ways. Never mind. This is not bad." Xiyue nodded, then put her hand to her mouth and pretended to cough twice, "Ahem."

"Then let's begin today's lesson."

--------------

"Okay, let's stop here today." Xiyue nodded, "Also, I have something else to ask of you today."

"Master Xiyue, please tell me. I can definitely do it."

"Okay, then change your tone first." Xiyue looked at Elini, who had gone back without noticing, speechlessly, "Is it so difficult to change your tone?"

"Well……"

Xiyue touched the red-faced Elini's head with a smile: "Help me check three people."

"Sure." Elini nodded immediately. "What kind of people are they?"

"They are from the Deep Sea Church." Xiyue described the situation of Amaya and the other two to Elini.

Although Ghost Shark said, please leave them to her, he would take them three wheels as her prey, the process of hunting and searching would also be a part of her enjoyment, and asked Xiyue not to help her, but.

When Xiyue thought of the Originium solution filling the spinal cord behind the ghost shark, anger arose in her heart. For those who committed such a crime, they could not be allowed to continue their actions no matter what.

"Saltwind City?" Elini nodded, but then she remembered that she was still on the defense line, "I'm afraid I won't be able to go over and help you look for it recently."

"It doesn't matter. Just find them. It doesn't matter if you can't find them. After all, Ghost Shark also said that she will enjoy the process of searching and hunting them down."

"Well?" Elini looked at Xiyue, "Why not let the Haisi go find them?"

Xiyue touched Elini's head and said, "First of all, if the sea heirs come ashore, it will easily cause a stress reaction from the Iberian officials, so it is best to avoid it. Secondly."

"The Haisi don't quite understand the so-called human names or how to find them, so there's nothing we can do." Xiyue scratched her head. Of course she thought that it would be easier to find through the Haisi, but the problem was that when Xiyue went to communicate with the Haisi and asked them to help find.

But the Hai Si really didn't understand what the word Quintus could mean, let alone using this word to find that specific person.

"I see." Elini nodded. "I can report them to the authorities. We don't mind having three more people like them in the cell."

"No, you don't need to go through the Iberian authorities." Xiyue sneered, "You just need to find them, don't alarm them, and then tell the surrounding Haisi that I have told them what to do."

"I understand, Master Xiyue."

Chapter 67: Like the Sea and Like the Abyss

"Ah, there are so many people here." Xiyue was pushed around speechlessly, and finally looked at the others who were also speechless, "Should we actually come here with Kong?"

"It's too late to say that now, Xiyue!" Angel of Energy said angrily, "Come on, come on, give me a hand."

"I suggested it before." Croissant, who apparently has the greatest power among the crowd, is the one who appears to be the most relaxed. At least she can hold her position firmly and move forward steadily.

"Even if we don't take advantage of the empty train, we should come earlier so that it won't be so crowded."

Texas, who was squeezed helplessly, sighed: "Is there a possibility that we have already arrived almost two hours early."

"This also shows that Kong is still quite hot-tempered~" Xiyue smiled and touched Hong, who had been hiding in his arms from the beginning.

"The second row is here." Archangel waved his arms and reported to the people in front.
