Chapter 48 Laurentina: "It's just admiration at best."

Two weeks have passed since Hongyu and Ulpian met.

"Yu, I'm back~" Skadi at the door shouted and ran to the sculpture room as usual. However, surprisingly, this time Hong Yu did not immerse himself in the world of sculpture (replication) as usual, but walked down slowly from the second floor.

"Um, should I say welcome home? Where did you learn to say that when you come home?" Hongyu said helplessly: "Then, Skadi, welcome home~"

After Skadi chuckled twice, she ran to Hongyu and threw herself into his arms as usual, making a "humming" sound.

"Are you a pig?" Hongyu rolled his eyes. He didn't know why Skadi became particularly clingy to him after she left the Agor cub and developed into a girl.

Just like... the original Ling, Nian, Xi, and Shu, exactly the same.

Skadi still held Hongyu with no intention of letting go until he pulled Skadi out of his arms, pinched her face, and urged: "Let's go eat first."

After patting Skadi on the back, Hongyu silently hid the information he had compiled in his hand.

It's not time for Skadi to touch these things yet.

In fact, deep down, Hongyu doesn't want Skadi to go down the path that requires killing gods.

Thinking of this, Hongyu dismissed Skadi's questions at the dining table, such as "Why haven't I seen you go to the sculpture park recently?"

……

……

……

"Huff, huff, huff~ As expected, you finally agreed to me~~" Laurentina held Skadi's hand and skipped along the way.

Although no one knew why the school suddenly ended early, it was obviously a good thing for the students, and Laurentina naturally took Skadi with her to go shopping.

Although Skadi's original idea was to go back and replenish Hongyu's energy, she couldn't resist Laurentina's nagging and went to the commercial street with her.

"I always feel like Yu seems to be hiding something from me recently..." Skadi and Laurentina were walking on the road, and she suddenly mentioned this to Laurentina.

"Oh? He dotes on you so much...what else could he hide from you?" Laurentina was obviously interested in Skadi's words.

"I don't know... but I always feel that Yu's recent behavior has been strange..." Skadi pinched her chin in thought, and then responded: "Didn't you notice when you came? He hasn't been sculpting recently, and as soon as I leave, he will go back to his room. He used to go out... and now he doesn't allow me to enter his room..."

"Really?" Laurentina raised her index finger and pointed at her chin, looking at Skadi with a teasing look on her face: "It can't be... the kind you resist the most... Yu found you a stepmother, right?!"

Skadi raised her fist, but Laurentina dodged it easily by moving sideways.

"Are you trying to say that Yu was planning to take you back to be my stepmother and then hid it from me?!" Skadi gritted her teeth and squeezed out these words almost word by word.

"Oh, oh, I didn't say that. Are you anxious?" Laurentina covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Don't you think of Yuta? Don't you think of Yuta? Shark!" Skadi gritted her teeth.

"Sad~~ You don't even want to call me by my name? That's so sad, Skadi."

Skadi raised her fist again.

Think about it, if you have a best friend (brother) who is always thinking about your good-looking adoptive parents, what would you think?

Of course, beat him up first!

Seeing that Skadi was about to become a red (wendy) because of this matter, Laurentina quickly waved her hands in surrender and said, "I never said a word about taking Yu away. At most, I admired her. But you should know exactly what you feel for Yu, right?"

It should be considered appreciation at most, right?

Laurentina was backing down in her heart as she said this.

It's just that he's a little gentler, more handsome, and more talented...

Laurentina's face suddenly turned slightly red when she suddenly recalled the time when Hongyu held her hand to sculpt.

Well... isn't he just like that?

Although Laurentina was not in a good condition at this time, Skadi did not notice her problem because her own condition was even worse.

"I, I, I, I, I...what thoughts could I have about him!" Skadi's face suddenly turned red. She was so anxious to refute Laurentina's words that she even accidentally bit her tongue.

"Pfft, where's that trash, Skadi~" Laurentina sorted herself out and suppressed the heat on her face. She looked at Skadi, who was really hurt by her words, with a happy face, and then sneered.

"Tsk, you guy..." Skadi quickly calmed down, and then the two of them laughed and cursed at each other and went shopping as if nothing had happened.

"Why does it feel like... there's no one here?" Skadi frowned, looking at the street that seemed to have suddenly become deserted.

"Well... maybe it's that... uh, haven't there been rumors recently about monsters appearing nearby?" Laurentina seemed to remember something. "Do you think it might be because of that?"

"I don't know, but... Shark, let's go back early. There are not many people on the street anyway, and I have a bad feeling..." Skadi frowned.

"Well, okay." Laurentina nodded. After Skadi said this, she suddenly felt a sense of palpitations for some reason.

It's like... something bad is about to happen.

Bang! ! ! !

But contrary to their wishes, when the two girls were about to leave quickly, a strange-looking creature suddenly broke through the obstacles on all sides and ran towards them as if it was running for its life.

What is that?! ! !

"Get out of the way!" An angry shout brought the two frightened girls back to their senses. Almost the next moment they got out of the way, a huge anchor hit the monster and smashed it to pieces.

Thick billowing smoke instantly enveloped the surroundings.

"Are you students? Don't you know that the army has issued an order to the school not allowing students to go out on the streets without permission?!" The man roared from the smoke, and he slowly walked out of the thick smoke.

This voice sounds so familiar...

Skadi thought about it, and then she suddenly widened her eyes and looked at the man who walked out of the billowing smoke.

"Are you the man who often comes to eat the food cooked by Yu?"

"Are you the little brat from the Yu family?"

Chapter 49: Arrogance and Incompetence

"Are those people responsible for making the announcements just complete idiots?! They couldn't even do the most basic thing of evacuating the people in advance?!"

So many people have died! Do they still think Hai Si is just a low-level creature?!

When Ulpian learned from Skadi and Laurentina that their school hadn't explained the reason for dismissal or issued an evacuation notice, he initially didn't believe it until he made a phone call to check.

Those bunch of good-for-nothings who only know how to eat and drink all day should have been fired long ago!

He had great reason to suspect that the reason why Agor was losing ground against Hai Si was because of this group of useless superiors who were more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything, and their stupid subordinates.

Holding back the thousands of curses he was accusing himself of, which would have been unacceptable if he were to speak them out loud, Ulpian urged Skadi and Laurentina, "I'm too lazy to explain to you what the monster you just saw is. Now, immediately, immediately! Follow me to a safe area!"

"But...Yuta..." Skadi's tone was conflicted and her face was full of reluctance.

Although she was very curious about how the unfamiliar uncle in front of her turned into a double-door refrigerator, and she was also curious and afraid about what the monster that was flattened by Ulpian's anchor was, but as expected... for her, Hongyu's current situation was more important.

"I guess you don't need to worry about him. The people in that area have been forcibly evacuated, and according to the higher-ups, the monsters' attacks should have come to an end this time."

Ulpian's tone was unusually gentle. After all, he didn't want any more unnecessary sacrifices, so he thought forced evacuation was a good solution.

Following his explanation, Skadi and Laurentina couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Yu (and mom and dad) are fine.

Just as Ulpian was about to take Skadi and Laurentina to a safe area, a soldier from the army suddenly ran up, shouting some news that didn't sound good.

"Captain! Kaiji's next wave of attacks is coming!"

"what?!"

……

……

……

"I've already warned you. The Haisi have evolved into intelligent Haisi capable of command! How could you still believe that the Haisi are still the same lowly creatures that only knew brute force!"

At this moment, in the military camp where the "seniors" mentioned by Ulpian were, a blonde woman slammed the table in front of the conference table, unable to bear it any longer.

At this moment, Gloria was extremely angry, because her research and speculation on Hai Si led her to infer that Hai Si had evolved this time. Even the scholars in the scientific research department had confirmed her guess.

But this group of guys who only knew how to eat and drink stubbornly believed that Haisi was still just a group of low-level individuals that posed no threat.

"Goldetia! Now is not the time for you to say such things! Sit down!" A white-haired old man in the middle of the conference table shouted angrily.

"The topic of our current meeting is how to resolve this Haisi attack! It's not your turn as a newcomer to question us!" The other members of parliament also expressed their dissatisfaction with Gloria's speech. For a time, Gloria became the target of public criticism.

Clenching her fists, Goletia frowned and slowly sat down.

Arrogant, ignorant, and incompetent.

This was the only thing she could feel from this group of old guys.

By joining as the youngest, do they think I can be more easily controlled and infected by their stupidity and incompetence?!

Gritting her teeth, Goletia thought for the first time that if Agor continued like this, he might never be able to defeat Hai Si, and it would only be a matter of time before Hai Si broke through the city gate.

"I think we can trust the strength of the deep-sea hunters. They will solve the problem this time."

inability.

"Hai Si is just a lowly creature. How could he be so dangerous?"

ignorance.

"Agor has sufficient strength and preparation to deal with the next attack. I think this time it was just a pure accident."

arrogant.

"I think……"

madness.

Gloria's clenched fists did not loosen until the end of the meeting. It was not until the very end that she asked the question that no one had ever mentioned or had avoided.

"This time, how many casualties were suffered in the attacked area? Please answer my question, Chief Investigator."

"This..." The man paused without any response.

waste!

Cursing inwardly, Gloria walked out of the barracks angrily.

Maybe I could go to the Deep Sea Hunter's department to have a look.

"What is she angry about? Young people nowadays..." After Gloria left, someone pretended to be sentimental and took a sip of tea.

"Maybe the area attacked this time was where she lived before?" someone joked.

"Ha, it's good to temper the newcomers' fighting spirit. As for casualties... there won't be any..." The man said with peace of mind, and then laughed twice.

……

……

……

"Hurry! Hold my hand, I'll pull you out!" Hong Yu propped up the collapsed house, his hand trembling as he reached out to a frightened woman inside. "Hurry! I can't hold on for much longer!"

While the woman was still in a daze, Hongyu grabbed her hand and pulled her out.

The surroundings were filled with the endless cries of strange sea creatures, and at some unknown time, the flames of the battlefield had spread here.

"Hey! Hey! There are still people here!" After saving many people one after another with his remaining physical strength, Hongyu saw a military vehicle transferring refugees, and then shouted towards that location.

The soldiers who heard Hongyu's voice hurriedly called several people carrying stretchers to come and rescue him, while Hongyu took advantage of the chaos to leave the place.

Although Hongyu saved many ordinary people along the way to the best of his ability, what he cares most about now is the safety of Skadi and Laurentina.

After all, at this time Skadi and Laurentina have not yet become deep-sea hunters, but are two serious high school students. Who knows whether this world will produce an if world line in which Skadi or Laurentina dies in a sudden attack by Haisi because of Hongyu?
