Atreus did not appear during this day.

The ship sailed in the fog for a whole day, and Atreus did not appear once during this process.

The ship went from chaos to calm, and now a day has passed. The rescuers were on high alert, but nothing happened. Their enemies seemed to have disappeared, and they fell into a dead silence without any trace.

"Are you planning to consume us first, making us busy protecting the entire ship, and then annihilate us all at once after we become weakened?"

Lin Yi showed an expression of some headache. It seemed that this Atreus was quite unethical in every sense, which made him somewhat unsure of how to deal with him.

"Maybe he accidentally jumped off the boat to swim and got lost?"

Seeing that Lin Yi's expression was a little heavy, Lixiang tried to make a joke.

"You might as well say that guy is wearing women's clothes and pretending to be a nurse in the medical room."

Lin Yi yawned and complained casually, his eyes fixed on the fog all around him. The power of resonance had been released silently.

no respond.

There is no way to sense any source of energy that could feed back the resonance.

This world constructed by fog does not seem to have any abnormalities, and the energy distribution is no different from the normal world. Although this place is not normal in any way, it does not look like a so-called "normal world".

"The food on the ship will last for a long time, and there is no need to worry about gas and electricity, at least not now."

Pushing open the door, Gu Mingji Jue came between Lin Yi and Fujimaru Ritsuka who were standing on the highest deck of the giant ship, and spoke in a cold voice.

Jotaro was still checking in the captain's room. As he was an oceanography major, he seemed to have learned some knowledge about driving a ship by himself. However, it was hard to guarantee how much use this knowledge would have on an ocean-going ship. If the other party decided to try, the Savior would not be able to stop him.

However, the enemy still did not show up.

What is the other party doing?

Atreus was stealing canned food in the logistics warehouse.

Under the premise that the surveillance on the entire ship had been completely destroyed, it was not easy to operate covertly, but Atres still managed to ensure that he would not be discovered.

He will not reveal the method for now. In short, relying on this trick, after he got tired of swimming behind the ship, he would sneak up, change his clothes, and then hide on the ship. He would use the various unmanned areas on the ship after the people gathered to shuttle around, and steal food in the kitchen to avoid starving.

This canned yellow peach tastes pretty good.

Well, this canned barbecue is not bad, but it’s a pity that I can’t heat it in the microwave.

...Which bastard came up with this canned durian herring? Tsk, luckily I didn’t open the lid immediately.

After eating several cans of food in a row, Atres took out a handkerchief, carefully wiped the stains at the corners of his mouth, then folded the handkerchief and put it in his pocket.

squeak-

The door was pushed open at this time, and several staff members walked into the house.

Atreus, who was savoring the cans of food he had just eaten, immediately fell silent and even pinched his nose to prevent his loud breathing from attracting attention.

"By the way, what are we doing here?"

One of the staff members spoke in a low voice at this time.

"Check the cans. Many people are hoarding food these days. We have to prevent anyone from coming in and stealing. What? Were you sleepwalking when I was giving you the assignment just now?"

Another staff member replied unhappily.

"Yes, yes, to prevent someone from stealing the cans. I really don't understand. Those people... Oh, forget it. There are some things I don't understand. I just want to survive..."

"What are you saying? Do we really want to die? Okay, stop complaining. They are so powerful, they should have no problem protecting us. Let's just do our job well. Anyway, it's no different from the deaths of those managers."

"Okay, okay, um, I'll check this side out."

After two or three brief conversations, a staff member with a sad expression came to where Atres was hiding.

The beam of the flashlight shone on the neatly stacked cans, row by row.

As long as they got a little closer and turned the angle a little, Atreus's body, which was too tall even when curled up, would inevitably be exposed.

However, this staff member obviously did not care much about this responsibility. He just took a quick look, confirmed that there was no problem, and turned and left without planning to conduct further inspections.

"I'm done here, hurry up."

"So soon? Don't you want to check it carefully?"

"What the hell, there's no problem at all. Let's go. This place feels eerie and gloomy."

After a while, the remaining few people completed the investigation, closed the door, and left.

Atreus quietly raised his head from behind the canned food pile. He didn't care about the sub-zero temperature in the warehouse. He just carefully sorted out the canned food he had eaten and put it back into the canned food pile. He also carefully adjusted the placement to ensure that there was no difference from the outside.

Then, Atreus was about to leave. He dusted himself off, checked that there was no grease stain from the cans on his clothes, and then took a step to leave, but before leaving, he saw several black footprints on the ground.

Some staff members did not clean the stains on their feet before entering the warehouse, leaving conspicuous marks.

Very conspicuous.

Very very conspicuous.

On the white floor, the black footprints were as conspicuous as Roland running naked on the street, and they were particularly eye-catching in Atreus' eyes at this moment.

"Can't you pay a little more attention to your job?"

Atreus sighed and left the room. After a while, he came back with a mop and mopped the floor of the warehouse carefully, cleaning it up.

Then he heard someone approaching outside, so he had to close the door quickly and hide behind the cans with the mop. Because he was too tall, he had to bend over and curl up, lying on the ground in a baby-like position, carefully holding the mop in his arms and waiting for the person outside to leave.

"This is the warehouse, right? Look at the words above, it's a food storage warehouse."

"Who knows what will happen next. Let's pry open the door and steal some canned food to store."

"Be careful, be quiet and don't draw attention."

There was a sound of whispering coming from outside the door, followed by the sound of something fiddling with the door lock. No idea what the person outside was trying to do.

No, can you open it or not?

The curled-up position was extremely uncomfortable, and Atreus felt very unwell. He felt somewhat tormented when listening to the noises outside.

If I raise my head right now, and they come in, my disguise will be completely exposed.

But if I continue to maintain this posture, my waist and legs will really feel uncomfortable. My spine might even bend like this.

"Can you do it?"

"Wait a minute, wait a little longer, don't be in a hurry."

Obviously, the people outside were getting a little anxious after not being able to open the door for a long time.

It seems that they are probably a group of novice thieves who cannot open this kind of high-end door lock.

Atreus breathed a sigh of relief and stretched his body a little, then prepared to raise his head.

Click!

"Success! It's open!"

WTF? !

Atreus, who had just stretched his body a little, quickly shrank back again.

pat-

"Hey, didn't you say it was open? Why isn't the door moving?"

"You kid are teasing us, right? Just tell me if you can open it or not."

"This shouldn't be the case. This is a bit strange... Don't worry, don't worry..."

The door of the warehouse was not opened successfully.

The people outside cursed for a long time, but finally they accidentally attracted the attention of the patrol personnel around them and had no choice but to leave.

After the group of people had been gone for a while, Atreus stood up from behind the pile of cans with a gloomy expression. He moved his body joints with some difficulty, and then let out a long sigh.

You don't even know whether you have the ability to unlock the door, so you just try randomly?

Humans today have quite a few brain problems.

Forget it, let's go first. These rescuers are quite capable and have actually maintained order on the ship. In this case, we can only think of a way to reduce their number. Well, we have to avoid the situation where the rescuer system sends reinforcements after reducing the number of people. It's really troublesome. We have to choose the right target.

Thinking this, Atreus opened the door and prepared to leave the warehouse.

Then, he stopped in silence because of a few dirty footprints left on the warehouse door.

"You bastard who doesn't take care of things..."

After a sigh, Atreus' tall figure quickly disappeared.

After a while, the people who were patrolling here looked at the warehouse door with some confusion. It was clean and tidy and looked brand new, as if it had just been repainted. For a moment, they couldn't understand what was going on.

Chapter 46: Commit suicide directly~?

For the next two days, Atreus did not appear again.

It was as if it had disappeared out of thin air. This strange enemy just disappeared and never appeared again.

Curse Arm searched the entire ship, and Gu Mingji Jue also tried various methods to search, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not find any trace of the other party.

Two full days.

The rescuers are ready.

But Atreus refused to show up and didn't even fart.

[Is this guy here just to tease people? ]

Lin Yi took a deep breath. After two days of alert, he felt a little unhappy.

During these two days, Lin Yi was like a firefighter, running up and down the boat almost non-stop.

The management class was all killed, leaving only the lowest-level service personnel, and many management problems on the ship became serious. At the beginning, people might be able to barely maintain the status quo according to the previous practice, but in this closed environment, various problems will inevitably continue to arise, and people will subconsciously hope that the savior who now manages everything will deal with it.

Although there is a plan to reduce the workload by entrusting management work to people who seem more reliable, there will always be people below who are undecided. Not only that, after some people take the management position, in this place where the law has lost its actual binding force, they will naturally try to gain benefits for themselves. And they still do bad things in the name of these saviors.

While ensuring order on the ship, he also had to constantly guard against Atreus's reappearance and attack again. To be honest, even Lin Yi was somewhat tired, and of course a little irritable at the same time.

[Indeed...I am really tired...]

Ritsuka, who was lying on the table, sighed, while Lily beside him carefully massaged her master's back.

[We can't go on like this. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. If we let them drag on like this, our situation will get worse and worse.]

Lin Yi poured himself a glass of water and took a big sip while continuing to talk in the mental link, in order to relieve his fatigue and replenish the water lost in his body.

At this moment, several rescuers gathered together, sitting in this empty restaurant, and held a brief combat meeting to resolve the current task.

In order to prevent eavesdropping, they naturally used a mental link. So although there were a lot of words in the conversation, from the perspective of an observer, these people sat together and didn't say a word from beginning to end. They just maintained silence, and the expressions on their faces changed from time to time, like they were performing a pantomime.

[At first he was strong, then he weakened, then he was exhausted. Perhaps he was wearing down our morale and using this method to undermine our fighting power.]

Gu Mingji Jue's voice sounded calmly. Not finding any trace of the enemy in two days did not cause any trouble to the monster girl. Perhaps this was the advantage brought by the age and cognition of the immortal species. She would not be affected by this tactic at all.

Pick up the biscuit, chew it gently, swallow it, and take a sip of black tea.

It tastes pretty good. I’ll save some and bring some back to Lianlian when I find my way back.

In fact, she even had extra thoughts to pay attention to other issues, but this was natural. After all, compared to the other saviors, as a follower, Gu Mingji Jue was not a particularly responsible person when it came to human life. If she could save someone, she would save him. If she couldn't, she would feel sorry, but she could accept failure. Anyway, even if the savior died during the mission, he could be resurrected. With the minimum bottom line guaranteed, the girl remained calm and didn't panic at all.

[The supply of food and materials is always limited. Coupled with the presence of so many ordinary people, we are the ones who are in a disadvantageous situation now. If he intends to drag it out until we collapse, then we will indeed fall into an increasingly disadvantageous situation if it continues.]

Jotaro's voice then sounded, calmly analyzing the situation.

Jotaro Kujo, who was completely unconcerned about the management of the tourist service staff on the ship and had been searching for the enemy, also did not rest well these days, and could see that he had slightly dark circles under his eyes. Although he was already in a state of low energy, his aura was still strong, and he did not show any sign of weakness.

[As this gentleman said, ordinary people who have not received training are quite fragile in spirit and will. They will inevitably collapse after a long time of drifting on the sea without support and unable to reach the shore. At that time, we will need to expend a lot of energy just to protect these people, while our enemies can watch us running around without expending any energy, and then deliver a fatal blow at the critical moment.]

The voice of Curse Wrist also rang out in the mental link. This assassin, who was not very strong in frontal combat, seldom spoke in the mental link, but once he opened his mouth, he could basically tell the most critical and core part.

[This enemy is too evil, so Master, what should we do? ]

The next person to speak was Lily, who was very angry but had no idea how to deal with such an enemy.

[Even if you ask me this... Well, speaking of it, the other party is deliberately provoking conflicts between the tourists on the boat, creating terrifying rumors, and deliberately eliminating the management and security personnel, just to make the tourists on the boat fall into a state of cannibalism... I always feel that...]

Li Xiang probably wanted to say something at this time, but because he had the least experience among those present, he was more or less hesitant to express his thoughts.

[Tell us whatever you think. Now is the time for all of us to think. After all, the key to this savior mission lies with Atreus. We must find a way to meet him face to face no matter what. Your opinions and ideas are also very valuable, Ritsuka]

Lin Yi noticed that Ritsuka hadn't finished speaking yet, so he spoke to the young lady very seriously.

[Well, my idea may not be mature, but the other party specifically told us that he needs souls to activate something, and his actions seem to be constantly creating conflicts on the ship. Mr. Jotaro said that the other party may not only need souls, but souls under intense mental stimulation. Well, I wonder if we can find a way to prevent the other party from having any way to obtain souls? ]
