"Besides these, the documents also contain research on the Iberian Tribunal. The bishops also studied the equipment of the land birds you fought last time."

"Their hand cannons are quite powerful," Bai Ye praised.

"Both the lantern and the hand cannon are standard equipment of the Iberian Tribunal. Both weapons essentially use that... well, what you land people call 'Originium Arts'."

"The Lantern is a uniquely shaped staff. Originium Arts cast through the Lantern can affect the human nervous system, deterring ordinary enemies and protecting oneself and companions from attacks by Terrorfish and Sea Sprites."

"The essence of a hand cannon is also a type of Originium Arts. I've compared it to your regular hand cannons, and their power is clearly inferior."

When talking about military technology, Goredia became noticeably more talkative.

"As for the Inquisitors' weapons, there is no doubt that they use our technology—the forging and smelting techniques brought ashore by our compatriots," Goredia said.

Bai Ye asked a question with a puzzled look: "With Agor's technology being so advanced, why didn't they use stronger weapons to fight against the Sea Siren, instead having the hunters fight the monsters with melee weapons?"

“This was intentional.” Grandia’s expression turned serious. “At least, the generally accepted explanation is that Haisi has an extremely strong ability to adapt to external environmental stimuli, as well as an extremely strong ability to learn and evolve.”

"If we cannot eliminate them all by using more advanced weapons, then once they adapt and evolve new abilities and coping methods, our weapons will become ineffective."

Bai Ye raised an eyebrow. What a clever species.

He was becoming increasingly curious about the origin of this thing.

"The engineering department... those land-dwellers you call operators, want to ask me to assist with their research, and the medical department has a neurotic doctor who wants me to cooperate with her in conducting physical research," Grandia said before leaving.

"You can make your own judgment. Just do things the way you want. I won't interfere," Bai Ye smiled.

He only cared about things related to the deep sea; as for the rest, Goredia had her own thoughts and life, which seemed to have nothing to do with him.

In fact, Bai Ye was puzzled as to why Gretia had to tell him these things. Was she reporting to him?

Upon hearing this, Greta was slightly taken aback. She realized that there was no need to tell Bai Ye these things at all. What was wrong with her?

The agreement was that we would only follow Bai Ye's orders when carrying out operations related to the deep sea, and that was all.

However, she has now told Bai Ye about all these things that she could have decided according to her own wishes.

Grandia left in a hurry, but before leaving, she couldn't help but turn around and look at Ghost Shark, saying, "Laurentina, you need to change your pantyhose and skirt."

Upon hearing this, Ghost Shark instinctively lowered his head, then couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Because Ghost Shark experienced phantom pain when "sir" was mentioned, and his body relaxed afterward, plus his hand didn't continue to hold it down...

"Waaah—this is...this is yogurt!" Laurentina blushed and couldn't help but defend herself to her captain.

Yes, the yogurt accidentally leaked out.

"Yogurt?" Gretia looked at her like she was an idiot.

"Yes, it was yogurt. I was drinking yogurt and accidentally spilled it!" Laurentina blushed, completely lacking her usual elegance and composure.

Goredia smiled.

This is a genuine, involuntary, and uncontrollable smile.

She discovered that even after spending so many years with Laurentina, she had never seen her hunter display such a wide range of expressions.

It even made it impossible for Goredia to maintain her poker face.

"Didn't you just say you were running?"

Greta decided to continue teasing Laurentina.

Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Laurentina stammered and couldn't say anything.

Drinking yogurt while running?

Even a fool knows this is a lie!

Chapter 54 The Last Saint

Although she repeatedly claimed that she was drinking yogurt, Goredia was not going to be fooled.

Although Grandia has absolutely no combat experience compared to Skadi and Specter—yes, in this respect, the two Deepsea Hunters should be proud enough, as they each have an advantage over Grandia.

However, Goredia was, after all, a technical administrator, and she knew at least that what Laurentina was wearing was definitely not yogurt.

She rolled her eyes and walked away, deciding to ignore the shark that had become an idiot for now—she still couldn't quite understand why the shark had turned into this.

Could it really be because of the White Night? Should we rule out the horrific torture inflicted by the Deep Sea Church?

Goredia walked out of the office, lost in thought.

However, both Ghost Shark and White Night showed expressions as if they had seen some kind of monster.

They couldn't help but turn around and look at each other.

Laurentina reached out and pinched Bai Ye's cheek.

"This is really something..." Bai Ye muttered. "I've never seen that guy laugh like that before... Is he possessed?"

Bai Ye didn't dare say those words to her face, for fear that Goredia would be angry and embarrassed.

Ghost Shark was even more surprised than White Night: "Don't even mention you... I've never seen anything like this before. You know, I've been following her for so many years."

"Was it because she saw you like this that she had a mental breakdown?" Bai Ye looked at Ghost Shark's terrible state. Although he was the main reason for the girl's condition, it was actually Laurentina who took the initiative first.

"How am I supposed to face my captain now..." Specter was troubled.

After hesitating for a moment, the guy suddenly had a wicked idea. He walked up to Bai Ye and whispered in his ear, "Why don't you drag my captain into this too?"

"Well--?"

Bai Ye was stunned.

Is this how you betray your captain?

"If that's the case, I'm afraid I'll be able to get along well with the captain. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold my head up high." Specter bit her finger, and it was clear that the torment she had experienced in the past had left her somewhat mentally unstable.

Although she has been able to reconcile with her other self, with Bai Ye helping her sort things out, she is not greatly affected by her dark side.

However, it's impossible to go back to the past and make it so that nothing happened.

For example, her dependence on Bai Ye shifted from physical to psychological, and now she's proposing what can only be described as insane.

"Cough... I think I'll pass." Bai Ye was indeed somewhat tempted, after all, the Deep Sea Hunter held a great attraction for him.

Perhaps it was due to his personal preferences, or perhaps it was due to Isamara's influence on him...

However, White Night ultimately rejected Specter's suggestion.

Ghost Shark puffed out her cheeks, clearly displeased with White Night's rejection. However, her reaction was within her expectations.

She was incredibly proactive back then, and only succeeded because Skadi's orca wasn't around.

She had figured out Bai Ye's personality and temperament.

We can only take it one step at a time...

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

Dr. Kal'tsit sat on the edge of the bed, looking out at the gloomy sky.

On her seventh day in Iberia, Dr. Kal'tsit was doing quite well.

At least, the Iberian court didn't deliberately make things difficult for this old woman who was practically a living fossil. Dr. Kal'tsit wasn't imprisoned in the dungeon beneath the Hymn Bastion, but instead placed in a mansion—under the court's surveillance, of course.

There was also a large camp of punitive troops nearby.

The Iberian government attaches great importance to this individual.

……

The weather in Iberia is quite bad, always gloomy, with dark clouds obscuring the stars, much like the fate of the country.

However, Dr. Kal'tsit did not become anxious due to being placed under house arrest, nor did she summon Mon3tor to relieve her boredom or demonstrate her strength.

Usually, she sits quietly, like a robot.

Well, to use W's words, the old woman is like a robot with warmth, as if her inside is a cold metal body.

Nobody knows what she's thinking.

……

In fact, Dr. Kal'tsit was very relaxed.

Or rather, she hadn't felt this relaxed in three years. She suddenly remembered what the young man had said before leaving when she first met Bai Ye.

"—Dr. Kal'tsit, how long has it been since you had a proper rest?"

Since Theresa's assassination, Dr. Kal'tsit seems she has never stopped.

From the Tower of Babel to Rhodes Island, from Kazdel to Lungmen, from the government-in-exile to medical companies…

Dr. Kal'tsit never stopped. She originally only cared about the fate of this planet; she could unflinchingly overthrow the regime of a political entity or lead an army to slaughter an entire race.

Now, she has become more compassionate, but also more exhausted—because some decisions become very difficult when influenced by personal emotions.

Although Dr. Kal'tsit had long anticipated that she might be temporarily left in this closed country because of this journey that concerns the fate of the planet and civilization.

But she really didn't expect that she would end up with such free time by such an unexpected turn of events.

There were no more back-to-back surgeries, no more Rhodes Island's various affairs, and no more power struggles involving different political entities.

More importantly, she no longer had those lively, mischievous, and unconventional agents causing her trouble.

The years are quiet.

For the first time in three years, the old woman took a break.

Only now did she realize that only three and a half years had passed.

However, for her, these three and a half years seemed excessively long.

And so Dr. Kal'tsit began her vacation in Iberia—yes, White Night mocked the guy for being in jail, but the truth was, the old woman was on vacation.

However, she trusted Bai Ye quite a bit because she knew he was someone she could rely on in important matters—if he really messed things up by accident, he would take matters into his own hands and solve the problem.

……

While resting and thinking, Dr. Kal'tsit suddenly realized something and stood up.

The holiday couldn't go on forever, and yes, she couldn't rest here indefinitely.

Soon, an elderly man knocked on the door and entered her residence.

Carmen Iberia.

An elderly man who uses the name of the country Iberia as his surname.

He dedicated his entire life to this country.

Of course, he wouldn't allow himself to rest in peace.

Because, for the sake of this country, he must continue to burn himself out—he will stand with this country until his very last moment.

He was the last living saint.

Chapter Fifty-Five: A Rare Moment of Leisure

Bai Ye, of course, had no idea that two old monsters had met in faraway Iberia.

In fact, he didn't care about the old woman's situation. After all, the "call to arms" he sent out hadn't been sounded yet, which meant that everything was safe.

Bai Ye's life became very regular, or rather, this lifestyle was a form of relaxation and rest for him.

At its core, Bai Ye is a lazy person, and he doesn't like to run around unless necessary.

Unfortunately, the world is not always so easy to make people's wishes come true.

Therefore, he can only cherish this relatively peaceful period.

……

Rhodes Island has many daily affairs, but they don't need to be handled by Bai Ye alone.

In fact, quite counterintuitively, the leader of Rhodes Island is not Dr. Kal'tsit, but Amiya.

In fact, Bai Ye never understood this kind of thing from the beginning—why would an underage girl become a minor leader of Rhodes Island?

Such a heavy burden of courage rested on the tender shoulders of this young Castor.

Later he learned about the Demon King.
