Talulah, I'm still a child.

For example, on Theresis's side, given the current strength of Mei Xue's curse, she could easily kill him. However, the little fox doesn't harbor any ill will towards him, and he is currently protected by the national fortunes of Kazdel and Victoria. At this distance, Mei Xue could at most cause him some physical damage.

For some reason, Therese suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She glanced around warily and made sure there was nothing that could threaten her for the time being.

As the current regent of Victoria, it would be too embarrassing for him to stay in the hospital all the time, as it would not be good for his image. So even though his injury had not yet healed, Therese still forced himself to come to work.

Although my leg hasn't fully recovered, I don't have to worry about people noticing when I walk, but I can't run.

"These damn things, not a single one of them is of any use!"

Clenching his fists, Theresis grew angrier the more he thought about it. Now that Mei Xue had not only returned to Rhodes Island but had also regained her six tails, even someone as strong as Theresis had to admit that he was scared.

In fact, these days Therese has been waking up from nightmares, and he has to be careful when eating and drinking. His neurasthenia, which was almost cured, has relapsed. No matter how much he tries to pretend, people who know him well can still tell that he is in a very bad state.

"Your Highness, the people from Shenchi have arrived."

"...Let them in."

Therese glanced at her instrument panel. Hmm, nothing was wrong, so it wasn't embarrassing. She just hoped that Mei Xue's curse wouldn't recur later, otherwise things would be terrible.

The so-called Deep Pool is a secret organization that has long been rooted in Victoria. Their leader is mysterious and never shows his face. Therese originally did not intend to receive these guys because they were not worthy.

But now he has an idea: Deep Pool might be a good piece to help him get out of his current situation.

After all... being cursed by Mei Xue is a truly torturous thing.

Conversely, the Siren lolis blessed by Mei Xue are now happily building their homes.

Although the ship named Fool was poorly maintained, its designer had left behind a lot of technical data, which was a valuable asset for the Sirens who were in dire need of development. Of course, the two people whose bodies had mutated due to excessive consumption of sea creatures were also kept.

According to Amaya, these two could be a key bargaining chip in their negotiations with Iberia.

However, the sirens didn't think much of it. They were busy dismantling things. As the captain of the Fool, Alfonso, who had already transformed one of his hands into a sea monster, was so excited that he wanted to go up and fight the sirens. That was his ship! These guys just brazenly took things off the ship!

"Waaaaah! Waaaah!"

With his mouth gagged, he could only utter a series of whimpers. Alfonso didn't think these guys were the same species as Hai Si, but that didn't stop him from wanting to find a knife and fight them to the death.

"Hey, why does this person look so excited?"

"Maybe it's because we saved him, and he wanted to thank us."

As Amaya spoke, she dismantled the Fool's gun turret right in front of Alfonso, and after she finished, she shouted at Alfonso.

"You don't need to thank me. Consider this ship as payment for saving you."

These words infuriated Alfonso. What kind of people were these? Who would rescue someone and then tie them up, gag them, and leave them to bake in the sun? And what about his wife?

And isn't this the Eye of Iberia? Why have these guys taken over this place and it looks like they've made it their home? Isn't that church in Granfalo town?!

Amaya and the others, of course, had no idea that Alfonso was now wishing he could commit suicide. They planned to modify the ship. These days, the sirens had been engrossed in various science fiction novels and were determined to modify the ship. They had even come up with a name for it.

The original name was supposed to be "Little Fox Number One in the World," but considering that it might put Mei Xue in a difficult position, they chose a nice-sounding name with Siren characteristics—Natural Selection.

Watching the massive ship being gradually dismantled in front of him, Number 16, who was engrossed in various novels, suddenly had some insights into life.

"Gatan, what do you think is the ultimate purpose of our Sirens' evolution?"

"Let's go to the dock and get some ice cream."

"You've misunderstood me, sister. What I mean is... why does our master allow us to evolve faster and more perfectly, to have our own thoughts without being isolated by the group?"

"Go to the dock to get some ice cream, and while you're at it, breed with your owner."

As Gatanjah spoke, she looked down at her flat chest and felt that she was undergoing a second evolution because Mei Xue seemed to prefer the figures of Isamara and Amaya.

Actually, she wasn't wrong. Making ice cream is a personal ideal, while procreation is a matter of racial consciousness.

Ultimately, the core of the Siren race is Mei Xue, but these girls also retain some of the instincts of the Sea King, such as expanding the population.

But here's the problem... they're all fans of Mei Xue.

Chapter 193 Ghost Shark Wants to Become Related to Mei Xue

Specter was immersed in her dream. As the operator on Rhodes Island whose mental state needed the most care, she even had a specially reinforced bed with extra restraints to prevent her from suddenly losing control while sleeping.

In reality, Specter is more terrifying than Lappland in everyday life because Lappland's madness is controlled, and she also shows an elegant and proper side to other operators.

And Ghost Shark? She rarely has a truly lucid moment. Her usual madness is the result of two selves in her mind fighting each other. If she occasionally calms down but always says things that are incomprehensible to others, then she is most likely dominated by the mad personality.

If someone suddenly decides to invite you to dance, then congratulations, you might as well try buying a lottery ticket, because the probability of seeing a conscious ghost shark isn't much higher than winning the lottery.

Today's dream was more fantastical than ever before. Ghost Shark could no longer distinguish between dream and reality. Her consciousness was still wandering, and her brain was completely unaware of what it was thinking. She only felt as if she had returned to the sea, and her body and mind were completely relaxed.

There were no attacking tentacles, no writhing chunks of flesh floating in the sea. In this dark ocean, the ghost shark heard someone calling its name...

"Laurentina, open your eyes. I am Isamara."

Isamara?

A familiar name, but she couldn't remember who it was. Specter tried to open her eyes, but found she couldn't. This was actually Isamara's way of protecting her, deliberately sealing off her mental vision. Otherwise, if Specter were to look directly at her, it would only cause the deep-sea hunter's consciousness to succumb to madness again, and she would revert to being that nun from the deep-sea church.

Although that kind of ghost shark is easier to control, who knows what she might do to Mei Xue if she breaks free from her control in the future? So what Isamara needs to do now is to deceive, to deceive as much as possible.

She wouldn't tell Ghost Shark what she wanted to do, but only that he should find a way to get close to Mei Xue and bring her into the sea. In her frenzied state, Sister Ghost Shark would choose to carry out the order, while the sober deep-sea hunter Laurentina would choose to investigate and then protect Mei Xue.

"Yes, it was me... Remember, you must remember one thing."

Isamara gently guided her, as if she were talking to the mad ghost shark whose command was for the ghost shark to find a way to bring Mei Xue into the sea, and to do so by any means necessary.

"Go find Mei Xue, bring him into the sea, and make him one of our kin..."

(Mei Xue, isn't that a name Skadi often mentions?)

Although she is not usually very clear-headed, Specter has always remembered what happened outside. She remembers the friendly and kind golden Vulpo, and of course, she also remembers Mei Xue, whom Skadi often mentioned in her ear during this time. It seems that Mei Xue is the object of Skadi's affection.

In the real world, Skadi sat on the edge of the bed looking at Specter, who was still unconscious. She gently held Specter's hand, hoping to offer some care to her fellow creature, but little did she know that this was the result of Isamara's manipulation.

"Shark, today was the first time I actually hugged Mei Xue... He was very enthusiastic and liked me a lot. He even kissed me, but unfortunately, it wasn't on the lips."

"Also, Mei Xue invited me to his dorm tonight, but today is my fertile period, so I think it's better to take the medicine. The nurse said that it won't affect the experience."

"I heard that it would hurt a lot. Mei Xue's are very big, but the Deep Sea Hunter's physiological tolerance should be able to withstand it."

This wasn't the first time Skadi had come to talk to Specter about Mei-Xue. Perhaps she felt that this would help her relax. Every time she woke up, she would find Specter and tell him about what happened in her dream.

Of course, perhaps because Skadi thought that Specter was currently unconscious, she spoke without any reservations and told everything, including what she did to Mei in her dream.

Specter's eyelids twitched slightly, as if Skadi's voice had really worked. Before she could get up to call the doctor, Specter opened her eyes on the bed and tried to move.

"...They still tied me up?"

"You tied it yourself the morning before yesterday, saying it was to prevent it from getting out of control."

Even though they were once comrades-in-arms, Skadi from Team Three didn't know much about Laurentina from Team Two. But now they might be the only remaining Deepsea Hunters, so Skadi was particularly concerned about this fellow countrywoman.

Skadi, lacking the intelligence to discern whether Specter was in a state of semi-madness or had briefly regained her senses, could only get up and seek out Dr. Kal'tsit.

Watching Skadi leave the ward, Specter, who was tied to the bed, began to think about her previous dream. In fact, she was in a semi-mad, semi-conscious state, which was also the quiet side of Sister Specter.

"Mei Xue... Oh right, Mei Xue, the Lord said I should find him, and then... then what?"

Specter wanted to touch her head, but found that her hands were tied very tightly. She didn't know where Rhodes Island found such strong ropes to tie her up. Although her strength was greatly limited on land, she shouldn't be unable to break free from these ropes.

Not long after, Skadi brought Kal'tsit to the ward, and Kal'tsit shook her head when she saw Specter's eyes.

"She hasn't woken up yet."

"No, doctor, I'm awake now. God has given me a new mission..."

"Really? What did it say?"

Skadi frowned. No one knew the true identity of the "Master" that Specter kept mentioning. All she knew was that Specter would occasionally hear murmurs about the other person, and those whispers continued to trouble Specter's mind and torment her in her dreams.

"He said, said... said what again?"

Specter seemed to have forgotten as well, but Kal'tsit knew that she was not a threat in this state. Considering that the other party had been resting for a long time, she stopped binding Specter and reached out to untie the restraints for her.

"By the way, doctor, do you know Mei Xue?"

Specter's sudden question caused Skadi and Kal'tsit to fall silent simultaneously.

Skadi fell silent because she hadn't expected to hear Mei's name from Specter. She had always whispered to Specter while she was asleep; had the other party overheard everything? Good heavens! That would be disastrous!

Kal'tsit's silence was quite simple; she realized that things were in serious trouble.

Although I knew those guys wouldn't give up looking for Little Fox, I didn't expect them to come so quickly. Sui is gone, Isamara is no longer the same, and AUS doesn't even know Little Fox is here. How exactly did those seafood guys in the sea locate Mei Xue?

"Ghost Shark, I ask you, why did it send you to Mei Xue?"

"For... oh right, for protection."

Ghost Shark touched her head. She wanted to say that she had forgotten, but then she vaguely felt that it was to protect Mei Xue, because the Lord had said that he should not be hurt, which meant that she should protect him.

Upon hearing that it was for protection, Kal'tsit breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that Specter in this state wouldn't lie, and all her actions proved that Kal'tsit's judgment was correct.

(As long as they're not here to kidnap people, it's fine.)

Kal'tsit thought to herself, feeling a little relieved. It was always good to have more people protecting Mei Xue. Although Specter's mental state was unstable, if even Specter in his berserk state was willing to protect Mei Xue, then the Deep Sea Hunter's combat power could still help the little fox a lot.

"In that case, I'll introduce you to Mei Xue later."

The reason it's called a "return" is because Kal'tsit is also responsible for analyzing and archiving various data from Mei Xue and the Doctor, which will take a lot of time. Specter also needs to eat something to recover her strength.

"Then I'll go get your food."

Skadi and Kal'tsit left the ward one after the other. They weren't worried that Specter would cause trouble. This wasn't the first time. Specter in nun form was quite reserved and wouldn't pull out a saw and cut someone into pieces at the slightest provocation.

In the clean hospital room, Specter leaned against the headboard, pondering what task her master had given her. At the time, she felt that her master's voice sounded a bit different from usual, somewhat like Skadi's, but it was probably just her imagination.

"The Lord said, 'Let me bring him back into the sea, and then we will become his relatives, relatives...family.'"

Ghost Shark seemed to have thought of something, rolled out of bed, and started looking for Mei Xue without even putting on his shoes, while the little fox went to visit Miss Black Snake.

Out of caution, Rhodes Island has temporarily confined Miss Black Snake to a relatively remote corner and restricted all contact between her and outsiders. Of course, her dormitory is equipped with all the necessary living facilities and supplies, as well as many books to keep her entertained. Elite operators will deliver meals to her every day.

After all, Miss Black Serpent contributed a significant amount of effort to the Reunion Movement and Rhodes Island's operations, successfully diverting Ursus's main force and assisting Rhodes Island in diverting its internal guards, thus providing great help in many ways.

"Sister Kashena, are you doing well here?"

The little fox sat in Kashina's lap, nuzzled against her chest, fed her a strawberry, and then gently swayed its tail.

"Not good at all!"

Miss Black Snake ate the strawberry and then hugged Mei Xue tightly, rubbing against her vigorously. She hadn't seen the little fox for a long time and was quite reluctant to do so. Unfortunately, there was also a pair of eyes secretly following the little fox, and to ensure safety, Huang had specially come with Mei Xue. Miss Black Snake couldn't do anything she wanted.

Is there anything you're not satisfied with?
