Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

"Hmm?" Xiyue took the bag, weighed it for a bit, and looking at Nian's smiling face, she probably guessed what was inside. "If you want to eat it, I can cook a separate pot for you and add it in. Don't worry, not everyone can eat something this spicy like you."

"Is this okay?" Nian scratched his head, "It's too much trouble. It's not that spicy, actually."

Xiyue weighed the bag and looked at Nian helplessly: "If you want to eat, I can cook a pot for you separately, it's not a big deal, and I don't want to have a few anorectal patients after I finish eating."

Angel came over curiously and looked at the bag in Xiyue's hand: "Really, is it that scary?"

"Would you like to smell it?" Xiyue opened the bag, took out a shriveled pepper from it, and held it in front of the Angel.

"Well, no, no." Angel looked at the chili in front of him and waved his hand, "You have the final say."

When it comes to cooking, Angelica has absolute trust in Xiyue. As the only cook in Penguin Logistics, Angelica supports all of Xiyue's dietary decisions, as long as they are not decisions that are too demanding on desserts.

Xiyue shrugged at the cowardly and pretentious Angel in front of her, then looked at Nian and shook the bag in her hand: "So, do you want to eat?"

"Yeah." Nian looked around and saw everyone slumped on the sofa, watching TV. It seemed like no one had any opinion about this matter.

So Nian nodded to Xiyue and said, "Since that's what you said, may I trouble you, Miss Xiyue?"

Xiyue nodded and walked towards the kitchen with the bag: "Okay, wait, it will be ready soon."

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

"I always feel like something is not right." Nian squatted on a small chair, looking at the small hot pot in front of him that was bubbling and emitting a spicy smell from the small table that was temporarily set up in front of him.

Xiyue pushed open the balcony glass and placed the plate with meatballs on the small table. She smiled and looked at Nian who looked strange: "What's wrong?"

"No, it's still cold outside." Nian pointed to the cold wind blowing outside, and then pointed to the warm room, "Can't you let me in?"

Xiyue pointed at the scarlet hot pot that was still bubbling with a smile: "The smell is too strong. It hasn't been cooking for a while, but the whole room is filled with spicy smell."

"That's right, I can't even open my eyes, and I keep coughing. But, if you don't like the cold~"

Xiyue raised her hand and used water to coat the balcony to block the cold wind: "Is this okay?"

"Well, that's not what I meant." Nian looked at Xiyue, but all he saw was Xiyue's back as she put down her things and left.

Nian looked at Xiyue's back as she left. Even though the cold wind outside the window had been blocked by the water flow, Nian still felt the cool breeze on his back, and it even seemed like snow was falling.

————Inside the house————

"It seems that Miss Nian looks a little pitiful." Angel Nian looked at the bleak Nian on the balcony, "It feels like snow is about to fall behind her."

"That's too spicy." Muirseth pinched his nose, "I didn't expect there would be such a spicy pepper."

"It felt like the bubbles coming out of the boiling hot pot had a bit of red smoke. I really don't know how Miss Nian managed to eat it."

"Everyone has their own preferences." Xiyue pulled out a stool and sat down. "I don't want Miss Nian to sit on the windowsill either. It's just that if she cooks here, the smell will be too strong."

"Yeah." Texas and Red nodded. As the two people with the sharpest sense of smell in the whole audience, they sneezed the most frequently.

Especially Hong, as a curious little wolf cub, he had curiously come over when it was just being cooked. He was directly faced with the horrible spicy smell, and now he kept sneezing, with the spicy smell filling his nose.

So Xiyue had no choice. If she continued like this, she would have to find a way to deodorize the whole house later. She could only invite Nian to the balcony and isolate him alone.

"Actually, I'd like to try one." Ghost Shark ate the meatball in his mouth in one gulp. "It would be very interesting."

"It's really spicy. I want to try what it tastes like when cooked with that soup base." Croissant listened to Ghost Shark nodding in agreement and said, "It's rare to find such a spicy soup base."

"Ghost Shark wants to eat. I'm not going to stop him." Xiyue glanced at Croissant, "But Croissant, you better be careful. Ghost Shark will just feel a little spicy. As for you, I don't want to have another anorectal patient later."

"And it probably doesn't taste like anything. When you put it in your mouth, you'll probably only feel a spicy taste that goes straight to the top of your head."

"That's true." Croissant nodded. "It smells so spicy. If I eat it, it will be like eating fire. I'm afraid all the flavors will be gone."

"So, take it easy."

——————Night·Penguin Logistics Headquarters·Rooftop——————

At this moment, bright lights are still shining everywhere in Longmen, showing that the nightlife has just begun.

However, everyone from Penguin Logistics, Muirseth, and Ghost Shark were all sent back to bed early by Xiyue and asked to go to sleep. At least for now, they had no chance to enjoy the nightlife.

At this moment on the rooftop, Nian was stroking the railing, looking at the lights in front of him, and the fan in his hand hit the railing under his hand, making a clanging sound.

"Miss Nian, would you like a cup?" Xiyue's voice suddenly rang out, and a cup of coffee held up by the running water appeared in front of Nian.

Nian turned his head and saw Xiyue appeared behind him from somewhere. The azure water formed chairs and tables, emitting a leisurely blue light.

"Tsk, it's obviously me who often appears behind others to scare them." Nian took the cup dragged by the water beside him, "Ms. Xiyue, how come you are more skilled than me?"

"I didn't mean to scare you." Xiyue shook her head, "I just came here this time."

"You hid from my perception and appeared behind me silently?" Nian looked at Xiyue who was swinging her tail in surprise. "I feel like you are pretending, but I don't seem to have any evidence."

"I look normal wherever I appear." Xiyue smiled, "Sit down, the night is still long, we have plenty of time to chat."

Nian pulled out a chair made of water and sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip: "This coffee is interesting, I wonder if Sister Shu can grow some, but my brothers should prefer drinking tea, and may not be used to drinking black tea or coffee."

"As for tea, I have some here. Do you want me to make you a new pot?"

"No need~" Nian shook his head, "It would be nice to drink something else."

"Speaking of which, did anyone know that you were looking for me tonight?" Xiyue looked at the scenery in the distance, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Or maybe someone would care?"

"As long as I don't cause trouble, they won't bother me." Nian shook his head, "But it will probably be soon. Even if I don't cause trouble, they will probably bother me."

"On the contrary, Miss Xiyue, you have been here the whole time. Haven't they looked for you?"

"Who knows?" Xiyue shook her head. "Maybe they don't know I'm here yet, so they haven't come to find me. Or maybe they know I'm here, but haven't figured out how to contact me yet."

"Ah, that's true." Nian smiled and looked into the distance, "I think it's more like the latter. They are not ready to contact you yet. They can't predict your attitude, and there are more things involved behind you than just a little bit."

"I know." Xiyue nodded, "To them, I can't just be a doctor."

"The mountains and seas have taken shape, overturning the world, nothing can stop them, and they are indestructible." Nian looked at Xiyue, "Now those sea heirs are nothing. You are now the most unpredictable person in this land."

"That's true." Xiyue nodded and just calmly held the cup and drank coffee.

Nian drank his coffee silently, looking at Xiyue beside him for a while before asking, "What do you think of your water clone?"

Xiyue paused while drinking coffee: "What are you referring to, Miss Nian?"

"If your clones leave your body and become independent individuals, would you plan to take them back?"

"Miss Nian seems to have a clue?" Xiyue chuckled, "If they become independent individuals with their own consciousness, then their lives will only belong to them, not to me, so I naturally have no intention of taking them back."

"Then..." Nian hesitated, "If you die, your body will split into several clones. After a few years, they will have their own independent consciousness."

"And your awakening is inevitable. Your awakening is destined to be accompanied by the dissipation of these clones. What do you think?"

"My thoughts may not necessarily apply to you, Miss Nian." Xiyue chuckled and shook her head, "I don't want to wake up. If I can exchange one life for several others, it's enough."

"They have already walked out of their own lives, why should I let them use their lives to remarry me?"

"Why bother to remarry?" Nian was silent for a moment, "But you are a doctor, you can save more people."

"They can be one, too." Xiyue looked at Nian, "Many people can be doctors, and anyone can save more people, so why must it be me?"

"...So free and easy." Nian looked at Xiyue, "It's just that we don't seem to be so lucky. Sui is not as kind as Miss Xiyue."

"We are destined to disappear." Nian looked out at the distant scenery, "The traces we left behind are destined to disappear, and so are the films I shot and the things I forged."

Xiyue looked at Nian: "Is that why you want to make more movies and leave more traces of yourself?"

"Yes." Nian nodded. "This way, even if I disappear, there will be people who remember that there was a person who made a lot of movies. This way there will be some traces left."

"It's just some nonsense. In the end, it's just a waste of effort. I just want to have some fun and keep some memories."

"…" Xiyue looked at Nian, "So do you think you need help?"

"Help?" Nian paused while drinking coffee and looked at Xiyue. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, but also some worry. "We disappeared because of Sui's call. Miss Xiyue, even though you are the ocean, you can't stop us, right?"

"And if you come to help us, I'm afraid things won't go well at Simuitai."

"As long as I want, there is nothing in this world that I want to protect but cannot protect." Xiyue picked up the coffee cup and took a sip. "How can I help you?"

"... Not for now." Nian shook his head. "If you help, then the opinions of Simuitai will be more than a little bit."

"Is that so?" Xiyue nodded, and then handed over a drop-shaped ice crystal, "I'll give this to you first."

"What is this?" Nian took the ice crystal and placed it in the palm of his hand. The ice crystal was not big, only the size of a thumb, and crystal clear. If it were not for the slight chill coming from his hand, one might not be able to tell that it was an ice crystal.

"If you need to crush it, just do it." Xiyue took a sip of coffee, "I will come over, even if the difficulty you face is years."

“Even if there will be other troubles later?” Nian waved the ice crystal in his hand, “Besides, we don’t seem to have any special relationship, so Sui is not easy to deal with.”

"You are a potential patient, and I am a doctor." Xiyue took a sip of coffee. "This reason is enough."

"Besides, you're not the only one who can be saved in solving this matter."

Nian held the ice crystal in his hand and put it solemnly into his pocket, then looked at the night view of Longmen at that moment.

At this moment, although it is already night, the lights in Longmen are still bright. There are many mobile food stalls on some streets. The bustling street scenes and the moving crowds show that Longmen is still experiencing a bustling nightlife.

"Yes, I am not the only one who will be saved by solving this problem." Nian looked at the night scene in front of him and nodded, "And I can't let go of this world either."

Chapter 122: Leisure Time

—————Penguin Logistics Headquarters·Angel's Room——————

"Hmm~~" Angel of Power sat up from the bed with blurry eyes, rubbed his eyes, and then looked outside the door, "What's that sound?"

"Ah~ um~ Xiyue, be gentle."

Archangel could tell that it was the sound of the ghost shark, but the sound seemed a little strange.

Xiyue's helpless voice also sounded at this moment: "How can this be done lightly? Just bear with it, it will be over soon."

"Hmm!!!" When Archangel Hearing the noise, his eyes widened instantly and the halo on his head became extremely bright. Then he immediately turned over, got out of the bed, and rushed out of the room without even bothering to put on slippers.

"What are you doing..." As soon as Archangel rushed into the hall, he saw that everyone else was sitting on the sofa as usual, while Xiyue and Ghost Shark, who made the noise just now, were sitting aside.

At this moment, the ghost shark was lying on Xiyue's legs, with his shirt lifted up to reveal his smooth back, but his spine seemed to be emitting a faint yellow light.

And Xiyue's right hand seemed to reach directly into the ghost shark's body. What was he doing?

"Well, are you awake?" Xiyue looked up at the Angel. "If you're hungry, wait a moment. I'll be done soon."

"What are you doing?" The Archangel touched his head. "When you made that noise, I thought, well, I thought you guys were doing something. Did something happen?"

"Oh?" Ghost Shark endured the pain and turned to look at Angel Exia. "Is it so... um... simple? Miss Angel Exia... you are not thinking of anything... weird, right?"

Just as Ghost Shark finished speaking, before Angel Exia could say anything, Xiyue patted Ghost Shark on the head with her free hand: "You were screaming in pain just now, and you still have the mood to talk nonsense?"

"Aren't you distracting me?" Ghost Shark replied casually, "This is my first time having surgery while awake. I didn't expect it to be so painful."

Xiyue touched the ghost shark's head and said, "After all, I am completely reshaping and regenerating your nerves, so it will definitely hurt."

"So, it's an operation?" Exiah scratched her head as she looked at Ghost Shark, and finally looked at everyone who had a calm face. When she came out, she was still confused, why was Texas so calm?

It seems like they already know that this is just an operation.

At this time, the coolness of the soles of the feet finally came. The Archangel looked down and saw that the coolness of the smooth feet stepping on the cold floor seemed to penetrate the bones.

Originally, Angelus had forgotten about the biting cold and just wanted to rush to the hall. But now that the misunderstanding was resolved, Angelus could no longer stand barefoot on the cold floor and hurried back to the room to put on slippers.

Ghost Shark watched with a smile as the Archangel ran into the room. She did not intentionally make misleading noises, but the pain from regenerating nerves was unbearable even for a deep-sea hunter like her.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have been here screaming in pain until he lost his voice, or even fainted. It feels like a saw cutting every inch of your body bit by bit.

Even as time went on, the range of pain became larger and the pain itself became clearer. Even the ghost shark could hardly bear such pain. The fact that he could still speak showed that he was determined.

If one wants to go through the entire operation without changing one's expression or making a sound, I'm afraid one can only do it in the state of a nun, relying on faith.

Of course, only Ghost Shark himself knows whether those sounds just now were intentional or not.

"That's all." Xiyue pulled her hand out of the ghost shark's spine. At this moment, Xiyue's hand had almost completely turned golden, emitting a somewhat creepy yellow light.

Xiyue casually tossed the water ball wrapped in golden liquid, and it flew out of her hand and floated in the air. Then, the water ball froze in the air and was caught by Xiyue.

"What is this?" Croissant looked at the ice ball in Xiyue's hand curiously.

"High-purity Originium solution." Xiyue put away the ice ball and clapped her hands. "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. What would you like to eat?"

"Well, Xiyue, just do it as you see fit."

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

"Everyone, why are you looking at me like that?" Ghost Shark, who was leaning on the crutch that Xiyue had just made for her, looked at everyone, "Are you curious about the fact that I'm using the crutch?"

"I'm not curious about that." Muirseth shook his head, "After all, Xiyue just put her hand directly into your spine."

"We are just curious about what is going on. Originium solution of that purity cannot be produced through infection."

"Nothing." Ghost Shark shook his head, "Just a bad experience."

"If it weren't for Doctor Xiyue, I would probably have remained in a state of madness until I died."
