All my hunting commissions come from another world?

This is a true reflection of Kroos's inner state at this moment. What's broken is not only the testing equipment, but also her heart that has recently turned green.

Kroos knelt on all fours, trembling as she looked at the parts on the ground. The piece of D32 steel used for force sensing was completely twisted.

It should be noted that their instruments did not detect any Originium Arts reactions throughout the entire process, which means that Zhou Si destroyed the instrument with pure physical strength.

As the chief engineer, Kroos knew all too well what this symbolized. She subconsciously swallowed, and just as she was about to turn around and say something to the Stranger, she saw the undisguised mockery in the Stranger's eyes.

Kroos frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.

"Miss Kroos, you're not dead, are you?"

Seeing that Kroos was kneeling there motionless for a long time, Zhou Si approached her with 'concern'.

As Zhou Si's handsome face drew closer, Kroos felt an overwhelming sense of terror, as if the Lungmen Dollars in her pocket were vanishing into thin air.

"Don't come over!!!"

Watching Kroos run away in an instant, Zhou Si shrugged innocently.

You all heard it; she told me to use all my strength.

It would be perfect if I could bring back some local specialties from Kroos when I go to Kroos's place for the birds. Thinking about it this way, Zhou Si suddenly felt that Kroos was actually a pretty nice person. This small gesture completely washed away the image of her as a cunning merchant in Zhou Si's mind.

But Zhou Si wasn't the only one who was happy. Among the crowd watching, a handsome man, a rare find, was practically strutting up with pride.

"Alas, it's a pity that I won't be able to enjoy the healthy meal that Miss Furong prepared so carefully."

"Ah~"

Seeing Ji Jing's smug expression, the people around him were already itching to teach him a lesson.

"Oh! Mr. Extreme likes my nutritious meals so much? Then I'll prepare them carefully for you every day from now on~"

Just as Extreme Realm was gloating, a familiar voice came from the side, and what she said made Extreme Realm's smile freeze instantly.

The little bird in the distance silently put away its mobile device, keeping its accomplishments hidden.

At this moment, Kroos finally recovered from her grief. She glared fiercely at Zhou Si. Since the matter was already settled, she would at least try to regain face in other projects!

As the chief engineer of Rhodes Island, Kroos would never bow down to these despicable numerical monsters.

Rhodes Island Engineering Department never gives up!

The Stranger looked at Kroos with some confusion, wondering what she was burning. He removed the data module from the testing device and looked at the number on it, which was far beyond human comprehension. The Stranger simply calmly recorded the data in Zhou Si's file.

He was more interested in Zhou Si than Kal'tsit's mission.

"Let's go, let's take the next test!"

Kroos has already started to compete with Zhou Si, and today she's determined to show this nepotism that Kal'tsit planted in Rhodes Island the power of the engineering department.

The second test is the [Battlefield Mobility] test. This test examines not only speed, but also reaction speed, evasion performance and other evaluation criteria. Kroos knows these muscular monsters all too well.

Because of her superior strength, she basically charges around recklessly in battle. Skadi, who previously damaged the testing equipment, only received a standard evaluation in this test.

This time, we'll definitely make that crooked guy stumble and fall!

Not to mention that Kroos secretly increased the difficulty.

Seeing the provocative look the unscrupulous merchant gave him, Zhou Si smiled slightly. If it were a couple of days ago, he might not have been able to achieve a very good result in this test, but now...

Sharp, silvery-white scales, like swords, gradually sprouted from Zhou Si's body. A few crimson dragon energy particles escaped from the gaps in the scales. The materials he had tricked Huihui into giving him nourishment had become Zhou Si's sustenance.

It seems that even if Gu Long's intelligence is no less than that of humans, he is still too naive. It feels like he could fool people xxxx times in one night.

Although Zhou Si's conversion of dragon energy was very inefficient because he hadn't consumed the Dragon Qi Jade, he had far more methods at his disposal than Huihui.

"Wait, wait, wait a minute! What is that thing?! No, is this thing really human?"

Kroos almost popped her eyes out when she saw the gun wings growing out of Zhou Si's back. What on earth did Kal'tsit introduce? Those red gases were obviously the ones emitted by the [Crimson Comet] during its flight!

It was only then that Kroos began to regret not having read Zhou Si's file properly, even though the file didn't mention anything about it.

With the help of the Dragon Engine, electromagnetic force, and gravity magic, Zhou Si performed dazzling maneuvers in Rhodes Island's training grounds, once again leaving everyone speechless.

"It's alright, I guess. Next...next item!"

As expected of the chief engineer, Yike thinks that when building the tester 3.0 next time, they can use Kroos's mouth as raw material, since it looks much harder than D32 steel.

[Physiological tolerance] The test is self-evident; even with the instrument's power set to maximum, it couldn't break through the Thunder Dragon's shell.

As for combat skills, although Zhou Si's combat skills are somewhat lacking, his intuition and stats make up for it well.

In Zhou Si's view, combat skills are nothing more than making one's attacks faster, more accurate, and more ruthless through practice. However, as long as Zhou Si is fast and ruthless enough, any slight lack in accuracy or skill can be completely made up for.

At least the few training dummies that were scrapped didn't have any objections.

As for the [Originium Arts Adaptability], there's not much to say. Zhou Si doesn't even have Originium Arts, so what's the point of talking about adaptability? You can't exactly show Kroos a scene where she eats pure Originium raw, can you?

"Haha, not bad, young man. No wonder you were introduced by Kal'tsit."

When the final [Tactical Planning] test came, Kroos's face was already covered in pain. Their engineering department was already a major expense, and the losses caused by this test were basically greater than the total losses of the past month.

Kal'tsit won't kill her afterwards, will she?

Kroos was already thinking about her own affairs, but at least for now, she hadn't lost her argument.

You, Zhou Si, may be able to beat me, but you can't make me submit!

Just as the group was preparing for the final test, a figure suddenly appeared in the training room.

The newcomer was an ordinary-looking purple-haired Sarkaz, but the people watching around him seemed to have never seen him before. Kyokushin stroked his chin and thought about it seriously for a while, confirming that he had never seen this person on the island.

"Mr. Zhou Si, Dr. Kal'tsit is looking for you."

"By the way, Dr. Kal'tsit also asked me to pass on a message to Miss Kroos."

You will be responsible for any losses incurred as a result of this test.

In Kroos's despairing gaze, the 'mysterious purple-haired female passerby' pronounced her fate.

"Do not!!!!!!"

The unscrupulous merchant suddenly let out a sharp explosion, while the people around her looked at her with schadenfreude. This incident will likely become a laughing stock among the Rhodes Island operators for some time to come.

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Tactical Planning

"Dr. Kal'tsit, is there something you need?"

Following the purple-haired Sarkaz, Zhou Si arrived at Kal'tsit's laboratory. As soon as he entered, he saw the prisoner standing in front of a monitor with a furrowed brow.

The image shows a map, and in the center of the map is a motionless red dot, which Kal'tsit's gaze is fixed on.

"The situation is rather urgent, so I'll keep it brief."

"Ten minutes ago, the PRTS system received a signal from the deep sea. After decryption, the message contained only two words."

"To survive and to grow."

Kal'tsit looked at the location on the screen, which was roughly the site of the former civilization's laboratory that was in charge of the Haizi Project. If nothing unexpected happened, the Doctor and Mizuki were there right now.

Hai Si's actions have become increasingly radical. In the past two days, many Hai Si groups have begun to attack the Iberian Tribunal's defenses. She shares similar views with Saint Carmen, the leader of the Tribunal, and it seems that Hai Si is preparing to get serious.

Isamara's brief return has awakened the fighting spirit in their blood, which is why their progress has been so slow without a new leader.

However, the newborn beings in the Sealing race are never the most important link. In the large group, whether they are newborn, first speakers, or ordinary Sealing creatures, they are all equal. It is just that the function of the newborn determines that they will become the ones who lead the large group.

But the group won't remain leaderless forever. Moreover, the Deep Sea Cultists haven't yet revealed their true intentions, and no one knows what they're planning behind the scenes.

Kal'tsit knew that the people of this land might be able to stop the Sea Siren, but it was also unlikely that they could actually stop the Sea Siren.

After all, even now, there are still many wicked creatures who crave to profit from war and national calamities. How can you possibly defeat Hai Si when you're with these scoundrels?

The real solution to saving this land lies with the doctor.

Only the Doctor has the chance to find a way to truly defeat Haizi in the pre-civilization's laboratory.

"The signal was most likely sent by the Doctor; only she knows the location of Rhodes Island's main ship."

That's precisely why Kal'tsit called Zhou Si over.

"We have tried to send information back in the direction from which the signal came, but there has been no response."

"If we're lucky, the communication might just have been cut off for some reason..."

Kal'tsit didn't continue, and Zhou Si understood what she meant.

The doctors and their team most likely encountered danger in their underwater laboratory, which is why they were unable to respond.

Kal'tsit turned around completely, and Zhou Si could see some unusual emotions in her expression.

"Rhodes Island's operators are currently mostly engaged in resisting the Sea King's attack, and apart from Skadi, none of the operators on the island can withstand the speed of the [Red Comet]."

"So I would like to ask you to go to the location of the deep-sea laboratory and rescue the Doctor and Mizuki."

With Zhou Si and Tianhuilong's speed, they could even reach the deep-sea laboratory within 30 minutes of the signal being sent to rescue the Doctor. This is why Kal'tsit wanted him to help. Now, only Zhou Si could get to the Doctor's side as quickly as possible.

"No problem, I can leave right now."

Zhou Si agreed to Kal'tsit's request almost without thinking, as he and Huihui also needed the Doctor and Kal'tsit's help to resolve Isamara's situation.

Therefore, he had no reason to refuse, and Kal'tsit handed Zhou Si a portable terminal when he agreed.

"The Doctor has a locator on him, and his current location is also on the terminal. Once you find the Doctor and Shuiyue, please be sure to bring them back."

"You won't be disappointed with the compensation."

"Let's talk about those things later. I'm leaving now."

After finishing his sentence, Zhou Si turned and left decisively, without the slightest hesitation, as if he were the one who cared most about the doctor.

Watching Zhou Si walk out of the laboratory, Kal'tsit slumped wearily into her chair, her exhaustion barely concealed. But even so, she had to keep going until the Doctor returned.

"Kal'tsit, are you going to place your hopes on that outsider?"

Ascalon, who had been hiding in the shadows, revealed herself. Although it was a question, it didn't imply any doubt. She was simply confirming Kal'tsit's actions.

"Ascalon, the Hunter and the [Red Comet] are far more powerful than we know, but that doesn’t mean we should keep our distance from them. Their power may be the key to our victory in this war."

"You've said that more than once."

Ascalon nodded in agreement.

"Have the hunter's test results come out yet?"

"It's already out."

Ascalon handed over the tablet terminal he had taken from Kroos to Kal'tsit, which contained Zhou Si's onboarding test scores.

[Physical Strength] ■■ (Cannot be measured if it exceeds the upper limit)

[Battlefield Mobility] ■■ (Cannot be measured if the limit is exceeded)

Excellent Physiological Tolerance

[Combat Skills] Excellent

[Originium Arts Adaptability] Defects

Even Kal'tsit couldn't help but marvel at the luxurious panel. Were all the humans in the other world monsters?

"What does this '[Tactical Planning: ?]' mean? Was it an assessment made by Kroos?"

Ascalon shook his head and then nodded. The entire test was conducted by Kroos and the Stranger. This? Probably only Kroos herself knows what it means.

Could it be that Zhou Si's mind is too sharp and his tactical planning is too advanced, causing Kroos to lack the confidence to make an assessment?

A tactical genius? Interesting.

Regardless of what Kal'tsit and the others were discussing, Zhou Si had already arrived at the low hill where Huihui was temporarily staying. At this moment, Huihui was staring blankly at her missing scales and the nails that Zhou Si had cut off.

"Huihui, we need to go to the deep sea to rescue someone."

"Waaaah, my beautiful scales! You owe me my scales!"

Upon hearing Zhou Si's voice, the Heavenly Comet Dragon became excited, unleashing a surge of dragon energy as it slammed one of its front claws straight at Zhou Si.

Then Zhou Si casually moved it aside.

"Stop messing around, we have a written agreement in black and white, you can't go back on your word."

"Besides, aren't your scales starting to grow back? Is it really necessary to be so upset?"

Huihui remained silent, her dragon eyes merely gazing resentfully at Zhou Si.

"I'll treat you to something delicious when we get back to the Forbidden Land, okay? I'll make up for everything you lost."
