Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

"That's no problem." Xiyue nodded, "I'll ask the Haisi to help you retrieve all the pure Originium stored on the Golden Fleet."

"By the way, I'll help you tow the boat back. We can solve this problem together."

"Then I'll trouble you, Miss Xiyue." Carmen nodded. "Also, the great lighthouse. The Inquisition can't find even one suitable technician..."

"As for the technician..." Xiyue touched her chin, "I know a candidate. I'll take you to see him later."

Chapter 188: Historical issues

"And more!" Carmen was a little surprised when he heard Xiyue's words. He just said it casually. His original intention was just to ask Xiyue whether the Deep Sea Church had the technical drawings of the lighthouse.

Because the lighthouse was not entirely built by Iberia, many of its components were completed with the help of Agor.

Even the most important component of the lighthouse, the lighting unit that allows the lighthouse to fully illuminate the sea area it is responsible for, comes entirely from Agor's technology.

It is also because of this that after the Great Silence, Iberia's hostility and persecution of Agor led to a large number of Agor's technicians being persecuted or leaving.

The lack of a large number of technical personnel has resulted in Iberia being unable to start up those coastal lighthouses, especially the large lighthouses.

But he didn't expect that Xiyue seemed to know a qualified technician.

"Yes." Xiyue nodded, but she also understood what Carmen originally wanted to ask, "I will also ask the Medical Association. Logically speaking, they should have it, right?"

"But it's hard to say. After all, they don't do this originally, so it's hard to say whether they have the lighthouse's technology or engineering drawings."

"I understand." Carmen nodded. Even if it didn't exist, they could still keep the lighthouse running by slowly researching it or directly replacing the original components. The only difference was that the power of the lighting unit they made was not that good.

It's just a lighthouse. Iberia has many solutions, but the original Iberia doesn't have time. They need to face many problems, and the whole country is actually just struggling to survive.

The Golden Fleet, a symbol of Iberia's pride that was built at great cost, disappeared silently due to a disaster without any reason.

And it was at that time that the entire ocean began to boil silently, and Iberia began to face the attack of the Deep Sea Church that appeared in the country at some unknown time and the Sea Heirs led by them.

So Iberia at that time did not have any energy to repair these lighthouses on the seaside, but now, this country, which is already full of decadence, needs a strong shot of stimulant.

"Any other questions?" Xiyue looked at Carmen and smiled, "We still have a lot of time."

Carmen stood up and shook her head at Xiyue: "No need, this is enough. Thank you Miss Xiyue and the Medical Association for your generous help."

"Yes." Xiyue stood up and nodded. "For the following questions, you can talk to the person in charge of the Medical Association. I remember that they gave this task to, uh, the communicator who was originally in your underground prison."

"Yes." Carmen nodded. "We have already properly accommodated the communicator."

"I know." Xiyue nodded. "Okay, since there are no other questions and it's getting late, let's go. I already know where the child is."

"Then I'll trouble you, Miss Xiyue."

——————Iberia Granfaro Nursing Home——————

"Where is this?" Carmen looked up at the huge blue cross and the sign with a blue bird standing on the cross hanging on the house.

"The nursing home." Xiyue turned her head and looked at Carmen. "It was set up by the Medical Association. It is used for the workers to take care of their families, such as children or the elderly, when they are away from work."

"But Carmen, you don't know?"

"I don't do everything myself." Carmen shrugged. "Others do the surveillance. I just collect information."

"I guess the people monitoring it thought it was unimportant, so they didn't report it, and I naturally didn't know about it."

"Now you see it~" Xiyue smiled and led a few people into the nursing home.

In the small square in the middle, several old people were lying on recliners, talking and laughing, while in the small open space in the middle, several children were chasing and playing.

Several caregivers were leaning against the pillars, watching the children playing. Their playfulness made people feel happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Hearing the footsteps of several people coming in, several children raised their heads and looked at the group of strangers coming in.

Carmen was silent as he looked at the peaceful scene in front of him. Perhaps he understood why, even though he had clearly ordered that any organization and activities carried out by the Medical Association must be reported, Carmen still didn't know that the Medical Association had opened such nursing homes in various regions of Iberia.

"Don't disturb them, let's go in, he should be right behind." Xiyue patted Carmen who was silent beside her, "Take it step by step, we still have a lot of time."

"Yeah." Carmen nodded, but the next moment she took a step, she heard the children playing and the old people quietly discussing their words, and there was a slight change in Carmen's eyes.

After a moment of silence, Carmen looked at Xiyue: "Is that technician an old man here? If so, I... let's not disturb him."

Carmen subconsciously thought that the technician that Xiyue brought them here to find should be the Agor technician who was lucky enough to escape the pursuit of the Inquisition that year.

Carmen knew what the Inquisition had done to Agor's technicians, and knew how difficult it was for an Agor technician to survive until now.

In this situation, Carmen felt a little embarrassed to disturb the other party, whether in the capacity of the Inquisition or in any other capacity.

"You do need to apologize." Xiyue looked back at Carmen, "Although what happened back then was Agor's fault, the technicians and the Agor people who just live here are innocent."

"But the person we are going to meet today is not the Agor technician from that time, but the child of the lighthouse engineer from that time."

"…" Carmen nodded, "I understand, Miss Xiyue, I know what to do."

"Now that you know~" Xiyue had a smile on her face. She quickly came behind Carmen at a speed that left an afterimage and pushed her hard.

"Hey!" Carmen only felt a strong force behind him. Even though his instinct as a warrior made him subconsciously reduce most of the force, he still stumbled and pushed the door open.

"Th..." Carmen touched his old waist, although he knew that Xiyue must have held back.

And it was quite precise, using just enough force to allow him to crash in without getting hurt.

"Old man, are you okay?" Just as Carmen was still touching her old waist, a voice full of concern and affinity sounded.

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

"Done." Xiyue clapped her hands proudly, turned around and looked at the few people who seemed to have not reacted yet, "Let's go, there is nothing for us to do here~"

"I really didn't react." Alfonso put down the hand that was about to grasp the sword, "But Miss Xiyue, didn't you just push him in without introducing him to Carmen?"

"I've said everything I need to say~" Xiyue spread her hands, "What happened back then is not something that a doctor like me can solve. It's a historical issue left over from this country."

"I have given the medical advice to Carmen. How to use it and whether to follow it is up to Carmen herself."

"..." Kal'tsit, who was following at the end and trying hard to reduce her presence, breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he should also be considered a person who should avoid suspicion. This matter was a national affair, and Kal'tsit should leave with Ulpian and the others.

But Kal'tsit was a little afraid that Xiyue would use a tough attitude to solve all the problems in Iberia, so she kept following.

But as of now, Xiyue obviously has her own standards and knows what to do and when. The problems of Iberia still have to be handled by the person in charge of Iberia himself.

Just when Kal'tsit breathed a sigh of relief, her heart suddenly tightened. She looked up and saw Xiyue looking at her with a smile in her eyes.

“When have I never counted?” Xiyue walked to Kal’tsit and gently patted her shoulder. “Well, our business here should be almost over. We’ve been out for long enough.”

"And now that this matter is over, we should go back to Rhodes Island~"

"Yeah." Kelsey nodded, "We have indeed been out for long enough. I am worried that the doctor will start doing something strange while I am away."

"I think Kal'tsit can give the doctor some time." Xiyue turned her head and looked at Kal'tsit, "She knows what to do, and... isn't it good for her now?"

"..." Kal'tsit was silent for a while and then nodded. In fact, this was a point that bothered Kal'tsit. Although the Doctor had lost his memory now and had many strange and uncomfortable thoughts,

But if the Doctor really didn't lose his memory... Kal'tsit didn't know how to deal with the Doctor who had his memories and whether she would have the idea of ​​putting the Doctor back into the coffin.

Of course, it is not clear whether there will be some other actions in the process of stuffing the doctor back into the coffin.

"That's right~" Xiyue smiled, then leaned against the door of the sanatorium and looked at the sea in the distance, "Well, but it seems that they are overdoing it a bit?"

"What's wrong?" Alfonso got some tobacco from somewhere and was smoking a pipe that he hadn't used for many years.

"Well, nothing..." Xiyue shook her head hesitantly, then looked at Alfonso, "Although it may be a bit exaggerated, but remember to wear sunglasses when you pick up the boat."

"Huh?" Alfonso asked doubtfully, looking at Xiyue in confusion, "What happened to my boat?"

——————Sea Fool——————

[Hurry up and clear all of this out. The ocean is waiting for us.] A sea heir who looked like a man wearing a giant jellyfish commanded the fish to clean the deck of the Fool. [Make sure to clean it up.]

[Oh, by the way, it is said that the definition of cleaning on earth is to make it shine brightly.] The Slayer looked at the terrifying fish while searching for information about the earth in the large group.

The butcher thought about this and walked to the side to look at the deck that had been cleaned by the terrifying fish: [There is no light at all, so it was not cleaned? ]

[But what should we do to clean this ship so that it can glow? ]

[Tu Yuzhe, have you cleared out a place to store things?] Just as Tu Yuzhe was still thinking, the voice of the First Speaker came from the water.

[It has been cleaned.] The butcher immediately made a sound to inform the first speaker of the place that had been cleaned. [Also, first speaker, I would like to ask if you have any way to clean this ship until it glows?]

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

"Ah..." Xiyue sighed silently, looking at the situation over there, not even knowing what to say, "Next time I have to remember to ask someone to explain it to them properly."

"Hey, Miss Xiyue, I'm panicking when you're like this." Alfonso, who was standing by, even dropped his pipe and said, "What on earth did those seamen do to my boat?!"

"It's okay, it's okay." Xiyue smiled and waved her hand, "They are just thinking about how to make the Fool shine, but it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Ah!" But what Xiyue didn't expect was that Alfonso's reaction seemed quite big, "Those sea creatures are actually on my boat! And they are scratching my boat without my consent?!"

"Uh, yes." Xiyue looked at Alfonso and nodded with some confusion, "Well, is there any problem?"

"Let me pass!" Alfonso was extremely excited. If he hadn't still been concerned about Xiyue's identity, he might have grabbed Xiyue's shoulders and shook her left and right.

"Hey, calm down." Garcia on the side immediately suppressed Alfonso, then looked at Xiyue, "The captain just cares too much about the Fool. To him, it is his Iberia, so..."

"Oh." Xiyue nodded, not quite understanding. Although she still didn't quite understand what was going on, it would be right to send the person over.

"Then I'll open a portal for you, and Hai Si over there will temporarily obey your command."

Xiyue stretched out her hand and opened a portal on the side. The moment the portal was opened, Alfonso rushed in without saying a word, without even asking Xiyue whether the portal was safe.

"Is it that urgent?" Xiyue scratched his head and looked at Garcia who had just walked over. After thinking for a while, he reminded, "Remember to keep an eye on your lover after you go over there. Don't let him draw his sword. The Haisi may not tolerate him."

"Okay, Miss Xiyue." Garcia nodded, and finally stepped into the portal.

"How strange." Xiyue looked at the closed portal, "This reaction is really huge."

"I think this has something to do with the customs of sailors." Kal'tsit, who was standing by, had done some research on this aspect. "Some sailors regard their ship as their other partner."

"So there is such a thing." Xiyue nodded thoughtfully, "No wonder he reacted so strongly. I should have asked in advance."

Chapter 189: The unexpected messenger

——————Iberia Granfaro Lighthouse——————

"This should probably do the job..." Lumin crawled out from the gaps between the various machines and wiped the spider webs off his head with his hand. "It should be able to work for a while."

"But I just did a simple repair. These machines haven't been maintained for a long time. Even if they can be started, they may break down in the next second."

"Thank you for your hard work." Carmen nodded. "Just let him hold on for an hour."

"...Hmm." Liuming looked at Carmen and nodded hesitantly, then explained, "These technologies are very strange. They have a low dependence on Originium, which makes their structure very complicated."

"I'm afraid I can't even maintain it. If this is Lady Carmen's intention, I can only express my deep regret."

Xiyue, who was standing outside the machine room, shook her head: "It's not that simple."

“That’s normal.” Kal’tsit nodded in understanding. “Many people witnessed the tragic scene at that time. Especially Lumin, as a child who witnessed the incident, it’s hard for him to let go of the anger in his heart.”

Seeing Kal'tsit's reply, Xiyue knocked lightly on the door behind her, and a touch of blue quickly covered the surroundings, isolating the sound here from the people inside.

"I understand that." Xiyue looked at Kal'tsit, "In fact, I'm surprised that he's willing to help."

"After all, the child's life can be said to be happy and fulfilling now."

"Hmm?" Kal'tsit raised an eyebrow and looked at Xiyue, "That child is not your believer. Don't you know if he will help?"

"I haven't performed miracles much." Xiyue spread her hands, "So, why did Haisi or the Deep Sea Church suddenly become my believers? I'm actually confused too."

"As for Lumen, the child is at most an Agor. He is in a nursing home only because of the child's own personality."

"Is that so?" Kal'tsit crossed her arms and looked into the room at Lumina, who was covered in dust, over the dark blue barrier. "That's really rare in this cruel land."

"If there are no such people, there will be no hope for saving this land, right?" Xiyue smiled, "It is precisely because of such people that we have doctors like us."

“The idea of ​​saving others and caring for others cannot come from a profession, it can only come from one’s own thoughts.”

“…That’s true.” Kal’tsit nodded. “Perhaps for people like Lumin, their lives are indeed very difficult, but they choose to continue living and work hard to prove that there is still goodness in this world.”

“But then again.” Kal’tsit turned her gaze back to Xiyue, “What if the child doesn’t want to do the repairs, and the medical association doesn’t have the corresponding engineering or technical drawings? What should we do then?”

"Then~" Xiyue raised her hand towards Kal'tsit, showing the back of her hand and the palm of her hand to Kal'tsit respectively, like a magician telling the audience that there was nothing in his hand.

Then, Xiyue flipped her hand, and a white crystal appeared between her fingers: "Then I will consider whether I need to take action."

Kal'tsit looked at Xiyue thinking, and asked after a while: "Consider it instead of just do it?"

"This is the human kingdom~" Xiyue looked at Kal'tsit and smiled. The white crystal disappeared again in the blink of an eye. "They don't need the help of the so-called gods."

"If they can solve it themselves, why should I intervene?"

"But sometimes you..." Kal'tsit hesitated, as if weighing whether she should continue speaking. But after hesitating for a while, she still said, "You don't seem to be so neutral."

"After all, sometimes I have my own emotions~" Xiyue answered Kal'tsit's question with a smile, "But in this matter, it is better to let a god perform miracles and restore a country."

"And don't you think it's more romantic to let the people of this country work hard to restore the country themselves?"
