Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

"We found it." Aleri looked at the ghost shark, "We found the prey. We have locked onto his hunting ground, Lord Ghost Shark."

"..." Hearing Alleli's words, the ghost shark's mouth curled up in a sneer, and a hint of smile appeared in his eyes, but deep in those eyes, there was more of a biting coldness than gentleness.

"Oh." Ghost Shark moved his shoulders slightly. "Are they still in Iberia? They are really good at hiding. However, only prey that resists is worth hunting."

"Okay, I got it." Ghost Shark patted Aleri on the shoulder, "Let our friends help keep a close eye on it and don't let the prey escape from the hunting ground."

"I see." Aleri nodded, then thought for a moment, and then looked at Ghost Shark and added, "Well, Master Ghost Shark, I want to remind you that we also hate those heretics very much, and many people don't want them to live in this world for too long."

"If you want to hunt them yourself, I recommend you set out immediately."

“Okay, okay.” Ghost Shark waved his hand. “For this matter, I will ask Kal’tsit for leave later. You can leave first.”

"Okay." Aleri nodded. "By the way, do I need to tell Lady Skadi?"

"Tell her." Ghost Shark rolled his eyes, "How can I not tell her? Of course I have to tell her."

"I see." Alleli bowed to Ghost Shark and turned to leave. After taking two steps, he stepped back awkwardly and asked, "Master Ghost Shark, do you know where Master Skadi might be at this moment?"

"At this time..." Ghost Shark turned his head and glanced at the clock. After thinking for a while, he said, "Let's go to the cafeteria to check. She might be there now."

"I don't know what's wrong with her lately. She spends every day in the cafeteria. I even heard that she tried to eat Furong's nutritious meals."

"Okay." Aleli bowed to Ghost Shark and then went straight to the cafeteria.

"It looks like we'll be able to meet soon, Amaya." Ghost Shark walked into the room, picked up his circular saw from the shelf beside him, pressed the button and the saw started instantly, making a shrill roar.

Although the ghost shark still had a smile on its face, its eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.

"Oh, right." Ghost Shark turned off the chainsaw. If she continued to drive it, someone might think she was disturbing others. "Should we tell Xiyue?"

"I feel like there will be big problems if Xiyue goes to Iberia."

To be honest, Ghost Shark didn't really want to tell Xiyue, because if Xiyue went to Iberia, it would be easy for big problems to occur.

After the contact with Alleri in the past few days, Ghost Shark also knew how Iberia had been infiltrated. He could even say that he saw someone selling medicine on the street, or wearing a white coat.

This person is most likely a former Deep Sea Cultist and current medical practitioner. As for the Iberian Inquisition...

Forget about the Inquisition. They can hardly refuse the medical support provided by the Medical Mutual Aid Association and the huge amount of tax revenue every month to ease their own national affairs.

Once Xiyue goes to Iberia, one can imagine what kind of scene it will be. Not to mention the sea heirs, the original deep-sea believers who are already spread all over Iberia are enough to cause chaos.

After all, compared to Haisi, at least they listen to Xiyue very much. If Xiyue asked them to be quiet or stay in the sea honestly, they would jump into the sea without saying a word. The only chaos caused would probably be the alertness of the Inquisition.

As for the deep sea cultists, it would be good if they don't overturn the city. It would be like a god appearing on earth.

"It's such a headache." Ghost Shark pinched the bridge of her nose. Even if she didn't tell Xiyue, Ghost Shark didn't think that she could hide her action of leaving from Xiyue.

If she were to go on a business trip, she suspected that a killer whale would sell her out without her knowing it. And if she were to go to Iberia, Alleli would definitely follow her. In this case, it would be difficult to hide it from Xiyue.

"Forget it, why should I think so much?" Ghost Shark stretched and put down the chainsaw. "Let Xiyue, those deep-sea cultists and the Inquisition worry about it."

Ghost Shark put down his weapon, bent his cup and took a sip: "Let's go find Kal'tsit."

——————Rhode Island Cafeteria——————

Skadi sat at the dining table, with a pile of delicious food on the side. From time to time, she would take one and put it in her mouth, savoring it carefully, without thinking about whether she was hungry or not.

[How long are you going to finish eating?] Skadi's voice suddenly rang in Ishamara's ears, [By the way, I should be full by now, how can you still eat?]

[I strengthened my ability to consume and reabsorb.] Ishamara replied to Skadi casually, [This matter is very simple. I want to know as much as possible about the earth. Food is a very important part.]

[Does it also include the time you wanted to eat Furong's nutritious meal last time?] Skadi seemed to be still brooding over what happened at that time, and at the same time, there seemed to be a hint of relief in her tone. Fortunately, she persuaded him not to do so.

Skadi would still visit the Rhodes Island forum from time to time, and naturally saw the most popular hero who dared to eat the Hibiscus nutritional meal in the forum those days.

Skadi also knew about some of the legends on Mule Island, such as the extremely unpalatable nutritious meal. With the keen sense of smell of a deep-sea hunter, Skadi knew that the taste of that thing would definitely not be very good.

When Skadi saw the photo posted on the forum of Xiyue eating with an expressionless face, she knew that it was definitely not something delicious. It was even so unpalatable that Xiyue had to finish the food with a cold face.

"Lord Skadi." Several calls came from the side.

"Hmm?" Ishamara looked over at Aleri, "I remember you, what's up Aleri?"

Alleli looked at "Skadi" in a daze, then listened to "Skadi"'s question, bowed and said, "Master Ghost Shark asked me to tell you that the prey has been found."

"Prey?" Ishamara looked at Aleli, somewhat confused. She wasn't quite sure what prey meant in this situation.

Is it the nutrients for living? But nutrients in this place are easy to obtain, or is it something else?

[Give me back my body, I will take care of this matter.] Skadi's voice rang in Ishamara's ears.

[Okay.] Hearing Skadi's voice, Ishamara let go of control of her body without hesitation and handed it back to Skadi.

With the transfer of control, Skadi's dull eyes began to become bright.

"Are they the ones who hurt the sharks?" Skadi looked at Aleye. Although the prey at this time could only be those few, she still had to ask.

"The aura has changed again, so strange?" Aleri looked at Skadi in a strange way. He didn't quite understand why a person's aura could change so much in such a short time.

But Aleri suppressed his doubts, bowed to Skadi and said, "Yes, we found those heretics."

Chapter 178: Heading to Iberia

"Hmm." Skadi nodded, "Shark, what are you doing now?"

"I don't know, sir." Aleri shook his head. "When I left, I heard from Lord Ghost Shark that she seemed to need to ask Dr. Kal'tsit for leave."

"Oh." Skadi nodded, then stood up, "Then I'll go find Xiyue."

[I haven't finished eating yet.] Ishamara's voice rang in Skadi's ears, [Can you let me finish eating first? It will be quick.]

[You are definitely a foodie!] Skadi curled her lips, then looked at Alleli, "Please help me pack these things up and take them away, or you can go buy some delicious food later and bring it in the car, I want to eat on the way."

"Okay." Alleli nodded. It was just some delicious food, very simple. He also needed to get some supplies for the journey. It was just some extra effort.

"Trouble." Skadi nodded, then walked out without hesitation, although she felt very hungry now. It was probably caused by the strengthening that Ishamara just mentioned.

Now Skadi's digestion and absorption abilities have become very good, which is why she still feels very hungry even though she has just eaten so much.

But she had already eaten enough, and she didn't want to gain weight. Even though her weight was indeed a little high, she didn't want to get heavier.

Weight due to muscle and weight due to fat should never be confused.

[Hey, let me finish it!] Isamara's voice echoed in Skadi's mind, [The delicious nutrients will be lost, you have to finish it as soon as possible.]

[No!] Skadi immediately rejected Ishamara, [I don't want to get fat, we've already eaten enough, and I need to get my body back to normal, I don't want to be hungry every day.]

[Especially now I feel like my stomach is going to growl at any moment, this is very embarrassing, please turn it back quickly. ]

[You want to degenerate?] Ishamara's voice was doubtful. She didn't understand why this was a good enhancement, so why would it be degraded? This would waste a lot of nutrients.

Strengthening the absorption and digestion system can also obtain more nutrients later, and degrading it can be said that it is not worth the loss for Ishamara.

[I don't need it.] Skadi's attitude was very firm. She didn't want to feel hungry every day. [Hurry up and degenerate. Next time, you must get my consent before doing anything messy to me.]

[As you wish.] Seeing Skadi's firm attitude, Ishamara had no choice but to start manipulating the cells and returning them to their original state.

"Ouch..." At the moment when her body reacted, Skadi frowned. This feeling was not very good. [Why didn't I feel anything when you evolved before? ]

"Because I was the one in control of the body at that time." Ishamara's voice was full of self-righteousness, "That's why you couldn't feel it."

[The neural signal was only felt by me, and you were deep in your consciousness at the time, so you didn't feel it. Is this a very important question? ]

[Well, no.] Skadi shook her head and suppressed the question. Although the pain deep in her body was still there, it was still tolerable for a deep-sea hunter.

[Okay, let me ask another question. Do you know where Xiyue is? ]

[I know.] Ishamara nodded, [Turn left at the passage ahead, turn right at the second intersection, and enter the elevator.]

"Yeah." Skadi nodded, then strolled over. Anyway, it would take some time to ask for leave from Ghost Shark, so there was no rush.

——————Rhode Island Shopping Street——————

"Doctor, you're quite quick." Xiyue held Hong's hand and looked at the room in front of them. "Did you manage to reach an agreement and complete the formalities so quickly?"

"It's not that difficult." The doctor shrugged. "We welcome many people to do small businesses. It's normal for some operators to need some entertainment activities."

"But not that many people will, so these stores are actually always relatively idle. They are always welcome, but there are not that many people, so you know."

"Is that so?" Xiyue nodded. In fact, there is a job requirement and everyone needs some means of entertainment, but there is a professional requirement but not many people know how to do it.

This is actually very normal, especially in this land. It's not that they don't know how to do it, but that they don't have the time to learn it. Most people living in the wilderness only know martial arts.

Because if you want to survive in this land, martial arts are a must. Those who don't know them cannot survive. The same is true in the slums. At most, you can only know a few small skills, which are only used to make a living.

Many of the current operators on Rhodes Island are these people. Most of them come from the wilderness or slums, and seek treatment.

People with skills would open shops to earn money in exchange for treatment, but compared to the larger population on Rhodes Island, those shops were far from enough to meet the demand.

What remains are the medical workers and researchers on mineralogy who were attracted by the reputation of Rhodes Island.

"Well, it looks like Hong's business won't be bad in the future." Xiyue looked at the engineering team that was cleaning up the debris, "I guess Hong will be very happy in the future."

"Maybe." An engineer wearing a hard hat came over, swishing his tail behind him, "But I think I'll come over to show my support after the renovation is finished."

"But this is more important now."

The engineering team handed over a booklet: "Here are a few decoration plans that should be relatively suitable for a tail maintenance shop. Would you like to take a look and choose one?"

Hong subconsciously took the brochure and started to look at it. However, looking at the decoration plans above, Hong felt that they all looked good, making it difficult for her to choose.

"Mom, what do you think?" Hong handed the booklet to Xiyue.

"Hey, you should go to Xi for this, not me." Xiyue took the booklet and felt a headache when looking at the pictures on it.

After all, Xiyue doesn't have any special artistic talent. She has always believed in practicality above all else. This can be seen from the fact that she wears a black windbreaker every day. Xiyue doesn't care what kind of clothes she wears.

It doesn't matter whether it looks good or not, as long as it's comfortable. This also extends to her decoration of the house. It doesn't matter if it looks good, as long as it is practical.

"It doesn't matter which one you choose. I don't think so many people would pay attention to this aspect." Xiyue handed the booklet back to Hong, "As long as your skills are up to par, many people will come to patronize you."

"Just pick a set at random?" Hong took the booklet again, looked at the pictures on it, thought for a while, closed the booklet, then unfolded one side at random and pointed at the pictures on it.

"Just this decoration plan will do."

"Yeah." The engineering team member nodded, and did not ask the two if they wanted to think about it again. It can be seen that the two are not good at this, so it is better to reduce some trouble.

The engineering team took over the car and shouted to the people inside: "Decoration plan No. 12, good, brothers, let's get started."

"Probably in a few days." After the engineering team member finished shouting, he looked at Xiyue and Hong, "Then our work will end and it will be your turn to start."

"Thank you."

"It's okay, Doctor Xiyue." The engineering team member shook his head. "It's my duty. I wish you a happy life."

"Yeah." Xiyue nodded, looked behind her, and looked at Skadi who was walking towards her from a distance, "Hmm? Skadi, good afternoon, what can I do for you?"

"Good afternoon, Xiyue." Skadi raised her hand and greeted Xiyue, "There's news from Iberia. It seems they have found our prey."

"Oh~" Xiyue narrowed her eyes and dragged out her tone, her eyes gradually becoming colder, "Are you thinking about those people?"

"That should be the case." Skadi nodded. "It seems Ghost Shark has gone to see Dr. Kal'tsit."

"Okay, I got it." Xiyue nodded, then touched Hong's head, "Hong, Mom is going away, you wait here until your store is renovated."

"Hmm." Hong rubbed Xiyue's hand, "But Hong also wants to go out with mom."

"Don't you care about your store?" Xiyue pinched the red wolf ears, "It will be built the day after tomorrow, it's okay, mom will be gone for a while."

"But Hong wants to go with mom." Hong stared at Xiyue, "Last time mom didn't take Hong with her, this time Hong wants to go with mom."

"Really?" Xiyue touched Hong's head, "Okay, let's go, let's go find Dr. Kal'tsit, we need to ask for leave."

"Xiyue, shouldn't you just ask me for leave?" The doctor at the side raised his hand silently, "You don't need to tell Dr. Kal'tsit, right?"

"But this may be necessary." Xiyue shrugged, "After all, the problem we are going to deal with later is a little sensitive."

"Okay." The doctor looked at Xiyue and had a hunch that he might have to go with her. "Can I go with you?"

Xiyue smiled and said, "If the doctor thinks it's necessary, come along."

——————Rhode Island Kal'tsit's Office——————

"Do you really need to go?" Kal'tsit pinched the bridge of her nose and looked at Ghost Shark with a headache. "It doesn't matter if you go, but you have to know what will happen if you bring Xiyue over there?"

"I know, but I can't do anything about it." Ghost Shark shrugged. Ghost Shark certainly knew what state Xiyue would be in once she arrived in Iberia.

For Iberia, the arrival of Sunset Moon will be an event no less significant than the Great Silence that brought the glorious Iberia to its current low point.

Of course, it is hard to say whether this will make today's Iberia worse, or whether it will allow Iberia to return to another level of glory.

"I need to correct Dr. Kal'tsit on one point." Ghost Shark picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip. "It's not that I take Xiyue there, but Xiyue will definitely follow me there."

"Xiyue's words mean that she will go there sooner or later, and she also wants to see our prey. Xiyue was very angry with these people from the beginning."

"..." Kal'tsit pinched her nose again, and her headache became worse. "Can you please stop talking and let me do the talking? I want to stop Xiyue from going to Iberia as much as possible. This is a terrible thing, and I hope you can understand."
