The existing intelligence was not enough, and Roya knew too little about Casimir. The specific plan had to wait until Tolan got the intelligence of various forces in Casimir before making a decision. Before that, Roya could only tell Tallulah and others what he was going to do. Of course, he knew that Tallulah and others would be worried, but there was nothing he could do. Most of the people in the Reunion Movement were infected, and Ursus had just withdrawn, so they were short of manpower. Apart from Roya, there were few people suitable for intelligence work.

Tallulah and the others did not say anything. It seemed difficult to persuade Roya now. They also needed to think carefully about how to persuade Roya. Dikaiopolis, who had just joined, felt that he had no say, but he waited until everyone left before slowly speaking to Roya.

"I will go with you."

"Or do you want to see what Casimir's city looks like?"

Roya put away all the documents on the table. Although Dikaiopolis had just joined the Integration Movement, Roya was very optimistic about his ability and character, and made an exception to allow him to attend this meeting. Roya was not surprised by his request.

Dikaiopolis shook his head. He did not have much yearning for the big city of Casimir. Although he had only been in the Integration Movement for a few days, he liked this place very much. Everyone was infected, and even the few non-infected would not discriminate against him or be discriminated against. For the first time, he realized that there was not such a big gap between the infected and the non-infected.

"You need help. If you want to call on the infected, you alone are not enough. You were actually looking at other people just now."

This answer was indeed beyond Roya's expectations. He did not expect that his little action just now would be caught by Dikaiopolis. It was probably because of Dikaiopolis's keen perception of blood. He was indeed observing other people just now, thinking about who would be suitable to go with him. After all, the premise of calling on the infected is to make them trust themselves. Roya couldn't hold the Originium again. Otherwise, if he didn't get the mineral disease twice, anyone would suspect that there was something wrong with his body.

But the development this time is not like the previous one on the snowfield. Developing one's own power in the city will inevitably attract the attention of Casimir officials, and there will be a lot of trouble at that time. Tallulah's identity is too special to show up, and the Patriot is even more inappropriate. Froststar's physical condition also cannot allow her to take risks, so the remaining options become very few. The Integration Movement is so short of manpower that after a few turns, Dikaiopolis has actually become Roya's only option.

"Don't use honorifics with me. Your observation skills are sharper than I thought. I really need someone who can be used as a banner to call on the infected."

Luo Ya sighed helplessly. Di Kaiopolis was actually smarter than he thought, but his personality was too honest and it didn't show normally. This was a good thing, because this was the kind of person he needed, but he didn't want to take Di Kaiopolis with him.

"But you finally found a place to stay. I can't let you take risks with me, Dikaiopolis. You deserve a more peaceful life."

After walking all the way from Sami to Casimir and wandering for most of Terra, he finally found a place to call home in Dikaiopolis. Roya would never let him abandon the sense of belonging he had finally gained in the Reunion Movement and follow him away.

"I will select my own personnel later. You can settle down in the Integration Movement first, adapt to life there and build good relationships with everyone. Live the life you want and don't worry too much."

Reaching out and gently patting Dikaiopolis' shoulder, Roya was ready to leave. He had sensed that Skadi was waiting for him outside the door, most likely because of Laurentina's matter.

Seeing Luo Ya almost bumping into the door frame while walking, Dikaiopolis felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. After leaving his hometown for so many years, Luo Ya was the first person to say these words to him, but he always wanted to do something. He couldn't tell the reason, but he just felt that there was something he could do.

Dikaiopolis still needed to think, so Roya left him the choice and the space to think, and walked out the door. However, probably because he was a little tired, he almost tripped over the threshold. Fortunately, Skadi was quick to support him.

"Thank you." Luo Ya took the initiative to let go of her hand and stood firm, "Is Laurentina still not awake?"

"Yeah, but she shouldn't have been asleep for so long."

Skadi glanced at her hands, then returned to her usual indifference, but everyone could notice that her tone towards Roya was softer than towards others, and she was more willing to talk to Roya more.

It was indeed a bit troublesome that Laurentina hadn't woken up yet. If she continued to sleep, even eating would be a problem. Luo Ya could only try to use his own ability.

"Then let's go check on her. I'm not sure if we can wake her up, but I hope she'll be quieter when she wakes up."

According to Skadi, if Laurentina was really conscious, she would not have attacked the convoy. Moreover, if she really started fighting, Cannot and his men would definitely not be her match, let alone subduing her. Rusty Hammer probably found this girl from someone else and sent her to the Reunion Movement on purpose, but Roya really couldn't think of the purpose of doing so. To say that he saw the potential of the Reunion Movement and wanted to invest in it was a bit too much. He almost emptied his family's assets to give to the Reunion Movement.

And since she is a companion of Skadi, Laurentina's fighting ability must not be that bad. If she wakes up and finds herself in an unfamiliar environment, even if her first reaction is to take action, she will have to rely on Skadi to suppress her.

Walking with Skadi, Roya remembered that it seemed that he was taken back to the tent by this girl the night before. Although nothing happened, he was caught between Tallulah and Froststar in the car all day yesterday. He couldn't stand it anymore and had to join the Patriots. He still had some resentment. Speaking of this, Roya remembered that he didn't seem to arrange a place for himself to rest. When he was busy, he couldn't even take care of himself.

It was different now than before on the snowfield. The Reunion Movement had many accommodations. Of course, Roya couldn't share a room with Tallulah, but he would just stay at Tallulah's place to rest tonight.

"arrive."

Skadi's voice brought Roya back to his senses. She opened the door and took Roya into her cabin. She felt around but couldn't find the light switch.

Luo Ya helplessly took his tail and blew it. A flame rose from the tip of his tail, illuminating the entire room, and then ignited the firewood in the fireplace.

“We can’t afford electricity in this place.”

Patting Skadi's shoulder casually, Roya walked forward, groping his way around the room, and then came to the head of the bed.

Laurentina was like a sleeping mermaid, always maintaining the same posture and sleeping quietly. The close-fitting nun's uniform and the restraints on her hands and feet looked particularly good on her. However, Roya couldn't see what Laurentina looked like. He just reached out and gently held her wrist, using Draco's talent and his own ability to sense Laurentina's current state.

As expected, Laurentina also had two types of blood in her body, but it was estimated that a balance had been reached after a long period of adjustment, so there was no adverse reaction. She was really just sleeping, and she didn't even have any injuries, which made Luo Ya's face look particularly strange.

"It's true that he is just sleeping. Maybe he is still dreaming."

"But she can't keep sleeping like this, can she?"

It's not that Skadi didn't believe Roya's diagnosis. She had already examined Laurentina and found that there were indeed no obvious wounds.

"Then let me take another look... Um, what is this?"

Roya suddenly felt an indescribable sense of familiarity. He had had this feeling before, when he held Froststar's hand. It was the resonance between Originium and him. After sensing Roya's consciousness, the reaction in Laurentina's body seemed to become particularly active, and Roya discovered that their intensity was stronger than that of Froststar and even the Patriot. This meant that Laurentina was not only infected, but also more deeply infected than anyone Roya had seen so far.

Seeing that Roya's face turned bad, Skadi felt a little uneasy.

"what happened?"

"Well, I think I know why she has been sleeping. Lend me your sword."

Facing the hand that Roya stretched out, Skadi hesitated for a moment and handed over her sword.

Skadi's sword was very heavy, but luckily Roya was quite strong now. He hesitated for a moment and thought it would be better not to let Skadi know about some things.

"Can you please go out first?"

"it is good."

Although she was a little worried, Skadi felt that it was impossible for Roya to murder Laurentina, so she nodded and walked out the door, locking it behind her.

After making sure Skadi had left the room, Roya gently pried open Laurentina's mouth, cut his wrist with the sword, and poured the blood into Laurentina's mouth. He was not sure if this would work, but at worst he could just inject it, which would only be more troublesome.

While enduring the discomfort caused by the loss of blood, Roya increased the power of the Word Spirit.

"Wake up."

As the words fell, the mermaid woke up. Her scarlet eyes swept across the room in an instant, and then fixed on Roya. Her eyes were full of joy and excitement. Laurentina was never a cute little mermaid. She was a hungry shark. She reached out to Roya without thinking.

"save!!"

Skadi, who was waiting anxiously outside the door, only heard Luoya say this word. Without thinking, she kicked the wooden door open and rushed in. Then she was stunned.

She saw that Laurentina, whom she had always been particularly concerned about, had not only woken up, but also pressed Roya to the floor with her backhand, blocking his mouth with one hand and putting the other two hands on his collar.

This shocking scene was something Skadi had never imagined. An indescribable anger surged from her heart. She suddenly felt that it would be better for this compatriot to just be hung up to dry.

Laurentina, who was enjoying herself, was startled by Skadi's sudden intrusion. She blinked her crazy red eyes and put on a charming smile on her face.

"Skadi, you're here too, wanna join us?"

Roja, who was pinned down, looked bewildered. The wound on his hand had healed, and Laurentina had woken up. But what on earth was the reason why this girl attacked him? She was more direct than Tallulah.

"I'm going to hang you up and dry you like a shark!"

Even without a sword, Skadi rushed up quickly, dragged Laurentina and threw her out, then quickly helped Roya up. However, when she smelled the blood on Roya's arm, her body froze, and a certain voice rang in her mind.

[Sure enough, I found you]

Chapter 153: Ghost Shark's Frenzy

In the cabin under the brilliant starry sky, Roya tapped his fingers on the table and his tail wagged nervously.

"So what's going on?"

As she spoke, Roya moved a little further away from Laurentina, no, it should be said that she moved a little further away from the Ghost Shark, which was what she called herself.

Roya was still a little scared of this girl who almost added another green color to Abrana's head when she woke up. Mainly because he couldn't understand her motives. She might have some mental problems, but now the ghost shark seemed particularly quiet.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing that Roya moved away a little, Ghost Shark moved a little closer, wanting to force him into the corner. Skadi couldn't bear it anymore, so she simply moved Ghost Shark aside and sat between the two of them, her tone was extremely serious.

"Laurentina, why on earth did you do that just now?"

"What kind of thing?"

Ghost Shark's question left Skadi speechless. Looking at her sly smile, she didn't know how to answer for a moment, so she could only look at Roya helplessly, but Roya couldn't possibly receive her gaze.

For Roya now, he would rather everything that just happened was just an illusion. He was already worried about the possible conflicts between Abrana and Tallulah in the future, and now Ghost Shark wanted to get involved. The key point was that they didn't even know each other. This girl was much more straightforward than Salus.

So now Luo Ya had to try to change the subject and observe the ghost shark's situation to see why she behaved like that.

"Ghost Shark, you should know that your name is Laurentina, right?"

"Yes, I have a clear understanding of this. I also remember Skadi and everything about Agor, but I am probably not completely Laurentina. I am the half of her that tends to be crazy."

Answering Roya's questions truthfully, Ghost Shark's eyes were always on him. Skadi noticed that there was still some blood at the corners of her mouth, which made her subconsciously think of the voice that sounded in her heart before. Then she noticed that Ghost Shark looked at Roya with an almost fanatical admiration. However, the Ghost Shark in Skadi's memory was clearly a woman who was elegant and crazy in battle, and was dark and a little poisonous in her daily life. How could she have faith in Roya, whom she had never met before?

Luo Ya was not unfamiliar with such a situation. He had encountered a similar situation when he was in prison, so he quickly guessed what state Laurentina was in now.

"Split personality?"

Ghost Shark nodded. Although she wanted to move closer to Roya, Skadi wouldn't let her. She could only sit there obediently. Her body had not recovered yet and she was no match for Skadi.

"As you can imagine, um, those unfriendly people injected high-purity concentrated Originium fluid into my nervous system, which had a significant impact on me."

Skadi immediately realized that the ghost shark was not as lucky as herself and encountered some bad things after coming to land.

"You were imprisoned before. Who did it?"

"A bunch of lunatics, but none of them are as crazy as me. It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to do anything."

As if feeling disappointed that he could not take revenge personally, Ghost Shark glanced at Roya, which made Skadi realize that the person in front of him was indeed very different from the Laurentina she knew. She was more like a quiet nun than Laurentina, but as dangerous as a shark that smelled blood.

Roya has to think more than Skati. After all, he didn't know the ghost shark before, so his angle of analysis will be different.

"Didn't you escape by yourself?"

"No, I was saved by a mysterious man in a black robe. His aura is very similar to yours, and so is his appearance, but he doesn't have horns and a tail like you, and his eyes are dark gold. Do you know him?"

Ghost Shark's answer made Roya a little stunned. Without horns and tail, dark golden eyes, wasn't that what he looked like before the gene adaptation? Someone borrowed his face to save Ghost Shark, and used Rusty Hammer's hand to send her here, but what was the purpose of this?

Seeing that Luo Ya had not responded yet, Ghost Shark looked at him with some concern.

"Are you okay?"

"No, it's nothing. I just don't know who you are talking about. Maybe it has something to do with me, but I'm not sure... Let's not talk about these for now. Ghost Shark, can you feel the current state of Laurentina's side?"

Forcing himself to think about certain issues later, after feeling Skadi's gaze on him, Roya turned to be concerned about the situation of Ghost Shark's main personality.

In response, the ghost shark just closed its eyes as if thinking for a while, then opened them again and answered Roya's questions like a devout nun.

"She is still asleep, but we share memories, so you don't need to worry about her losing her memory."

Luo Ya felt an inexplicable weirdness at being treated with honorifics all the time, but he still asked the question that concerned him most at this stage.

"Well, can you tell me why you used honorifics to address me, and why you pressed me down just now?"

"Because you gave me the qualifications to be independent, your blood created a perfect balance between the blood of the Deep Sea Hunter in my body and the influence of the Originium, and also made the Ghost Shark an independent existence. I am naturally grateful for your efforts. As for why I want to seek a union with you..."

At this point, Ghost Shark seemed to be in a dilemma, not knowing how to describe her current state, but she instinctively didn't want to lie to Luo Ya.

"Because I long for you, coupled with my gratitude to you, I subconsciously did this, but I don't know why I long for you. In fact, I am also longing for contact with you now."

From every cell to every drop of blood, Ghost Shark found that Roya had an indescribable attraction to herself. She thought that this might be affected by Roya's blood. After all, Roya's blood affected not only her mental state, but also curbed the struggle between the deep-sea hunter's blood and Originium in her body. Now Ghost Shark represents the side of Originium, while Laurentina, as a deep-sea hunter, has not yet awakened because she had consumed a lot of energy before.

"Is there no way to suppress it, like stay away from me?"

"No, I can clearly feel that my current mental state is maintained at a level of rational madness because of you. But if I stay too far away from you or separate from you for too long, your blood in my body will lose its effect, and I will probably fall into uncontrollable madness."

If a deep-sea hunter's power gets out of control, there's no telling what kind of problems will arise. But if the ghost shark is always around, Roya feels a little uneasy. This girl is a real pragmatist and prefers to listen to her instincts rather than thoughts. This is very dangerous. Roya can't say whether she will do the same thing next time, as she did just now, making Tallulah see the explosion and Abrana pick up a knife after seeing it.

The Ghost Shark is now a hot potato. It cannot be thrown away, but it is also very hot to keep it. Her awakening not only failed to answer Luo Ya's questions, but also added many new doubts to him.

Who saved Laurentina? Why could his blood curb the oripathy? And why did it give Laurentina the personality of Ghost Shark, who seemed rational but was actually crazy... Wait, seemingly rational but actually crazy?

Luo Ya suddenly realized that Ghost Shark was somewhat similar to him in this respect. Oh no, could it be that the blood he drank caused Ghost Shark to become like this? Could such a thing be possible? Why didn't Frost Star show any such behavior after drinking his blood?

"Is it because you drank my blood that you desire me?"

"I don't know." Ghost Shark answered honestly, "But if you don't like it, I will try my best to restrain my desire and not cause you too much trouble."

Watching the conversation between Ghost Shark and Roya, Skadi subconsciously denied this statement in her heart. No, Ghost Shark did not desire Roya because she drank his blood, but her instinct as a deep-sea hunter made her desire Roya.

The ghost shark is just more sensitive to blood. After tasting Roya's blood, it wanted more. Because of its crazy personality, it did things that it itself thought were irrational. Its body was controlled by instinct.

The reason why Skadi was sure of this was because she found herself craving for Roya. When she smelled his blood, she subconsciously wanted to bite Roya's wrist and squeeze every drop of blood from him. That terrifying instinct made her uneasy. Although her captain had said when she joined the Deep Sea Hunters that becoming a Deep Sea Hunter required a price and had certain side effects, why did Roya alone evoke this side effect?

Roya couldn't hear Skadi's inner voice, as he had too many problems to worry about. But it was a good thing that Ghost Shark seemed particularly willing to listen to him. At least she wouldn't be so willful as to kill Roya on the spot. Otherwise, Roya would have to use force to subdue her. But then he thought of another problem.

"So do you have this desire for the person who saved you and who looks a lot like me?"

"No." Ghost Shark shook his head. "I can only feel that he is very strong. When I met him, my first thought was to run away. I can't describe the feeling, but you are much warmer than him."

The mysterious man in black robe who looks very similar to himself rescued Laurentina and entrusted Rusty Hammer to send her here. Luo Ya guessed that Rusty Hammer's help to the Integration Movement was probably promoted by the other party behind the scenes, and the identity of this person must be investigated.

But this was about all the information they had at hand. Roya needed time to digest the news he knew, and Ghost Shark also needed time to rest. Skadi and her must have a lot of things to talk about, and it wouldn't be too late to ask about the secrets of their deep-sea hunters later. Of course, there were some things he had to explain clearly to Ghost Shark.

"If you want to stay by my side in the future, you must listen to me and try to keep quiet. Besides, I will not interfere with what you want to do as long as you don't cause trouble. You have the right to move freely. Also...just pretend that what happened before never happened and don't tell anyone about it."

"I will obey your arrangement."
