National destiny: Starting with a coffin, building an aircraft carrier is broadcast live globally.

Ren Yi was completely stunned...

He stood frozen, his brain having shut down—rebooted three times.

Calm down, calm down!

He took a few deep breaths, his eyes still fixed on the siren's face, and only slightly turned his head to ask:

"Noah...do all Sirens look the same?"

Noah, who had been watching the spectacle with his hands tucked in his sleeves, immediately stared at Renyi as if he were looking at something new and exciting upon hearing this.

Do you have face blindness?

He nodded at Esting and Luigi, who looked completely bewildered.

"Don't tell me that you think I look the same as them."

Noah then exaggeratedly clutched his chest, saying, "I'll be sad!"

Esting & Luigi: "..."

However, Renyi is too busy to follow Noah's lame jokes right now; his CPU is about to burn out.

Since not all sirens look the same...

That means the person in front of you isn't someone who looks like her, nor is she a long-lost sister; she's Liv herself!

According to Nathan's assessment, this was a ship that was active in the early 20th century.

According to his understanding...

The birth of the new species of mermaids occurred approximately one thousand years ago, around the 22nd century, following a cataclysmic event.

In other words, the one in the water tank is probably the rebellious version of the Granny Li he knew 1,200 years ago!

He fidgeted with his sleeve, looking somewhat agitated.

clone?

A clone?

Is it a parallel universe isotope?

It seems... none of these are impossible!

After all, even chain amusement parks like Golden Anchor Town have emerged, so adding another time paradox wouldn't be outrageous.

"This is a difficult situation..."

He muttered to himself arbitrarily.

His original plan was to figure out the details of the ship, find a way to break the deadlock, grab some benefits along the way, and then leave.

As for Mr. Wonka's dream of immortality, Noah's journey to collect his debts, and whether the guest ate the siren or the siren ate the guest...

None of that mattered to him.

But this time it won't work...

Liv can't die here!

Who knows what's going on with this strange time loop...? What if he breaks the loop and what happens here affects the "future"?

Then his fellow villager Du Jingfeng, whom he had never met, lost his wife, and along with her great-grandson Arthur and great-grandson Rhys, they too were gone...

He painstakingly built a connection with the Deep Blue Kingdom...

This powerful, wealthy ally, who owed him a huge favor, had simply vanished from his network of relationships!

No, that would be too much of a loss.

"Little guy, there's something wrong with your eyes."

Noah looked at Renyi's distraught appearance and understood perfectly.

I advise you to give up on it.

He kindly reminded it, "It's probably thinking about how to rip your intestines out and use them as a scarf right now."

Ren Yi then came to her senses and glanced at him in astonishment:

"Can't you stop with such lowbrow humor?"

"What?"

"To stand by and watch someone die is not in line with the principles of our Benevolent Society."

"..."

Noah couldn't help but pick at his ear.

"What do you mean?"

He ignored him and turned directly to Estin and Luigi beside him.

Uncivilized?

It's okay... he has people on his boat!

"Esting".

"Huh? Here! Boss!" The curly-haired guy, whose name was called, jumped up straight.

She pushed her wheelchair slowly to him and looked him up and down with a "I have high hopes for you" look.

"You are already a level 4 powerhouse."

"Huh?" Esting was a little confused.

"A true strong person cannot always hide on the surface of the sea and eavesdrop," Ren Yi patiently advised. "You need to learn to communicate face-to-face with other strong people; this is an essential part of growth."

My idol is personally guiding me!?

Esting swallowed hard, his palms sweating, but when he met Ren Yi's expectant dark eyes, the words of refusal he was about to utter were swallowed back.

"How...how should I communicate?"

"Her name is Liv." He tapped the "window" with his knuckles, which caused the sirens inside to frantically gnaw at the glass.

"Go say hello."

"Boss... she, she doesn't seem very friendly."

That's prejudice.

Correct him in any serious manner:

"Language barriers can cause many misunderstandings. With great power comes great responsibility. God has given you the ability to listen to the ocean; you must use love and peace to influence her."

Esting inhaled and exhaled before taking a step with legs that felt like lead, moving toward the glass tank that radiated sub-zero temperatures.

With every step I take, I'm mentally preparing myself:

I am strong, I can do it, I can...

The siren inside immediately noticed the unexpected treat, its golden vertical pupils blazing with murderous intent, revealing sharp teeth as it let out a low growl.

Esther's legs immediately buckled.

He then closed his eyes, and as if taking a desperate gamble, raised one hand and waved it tremblingly:

"Hi?"

"Lili... Liv?"

The young siren in the water tank stopped its ramming.

It tilted its head, its vertical pupils filled with confusion.

But this food in front of me... it looks so delicate and tender, how could I possibly know its name?

"Bang--!"

The next second, Liv's head slammed hard against the glass again.

"Wow!"

Esting took a step back, almost sitting on Random's lap. "She said she was going to tear my face off and use it as a flag!"

"See, now you've started talking non-stop."

He calmly patted him on the shoulder.

"Well done."

"Introduce ourselves and tell her we're here to rescue her."

Esther's face turned pale, but everything is difficult at the beginning.

He gritted his teeth and made a series of strange sounds into the water tank that he himself couldn't understand, a combination of dolphin sounds and whale calls.

However, it is clear that the barriers between species are not so easy to eliminate.

Another low growl came from the water tank.

Esting relayed the information verbatim:

She said, "The children of the sea do not need to be saved by you greedy, evil, weak, and disgusting things."

"They even said... 'Kill me, and my people will tear you apart.'"

The sirens in the tank seemed to feel that their declaration was not powerful enough, so they started a new round of collisions.

"Bang! Bang!"

"I told you long ago that it wouldn't make sense."

Noah gloated, then maliciously urged:

"How about... we just let her out?"

"Anyway, the people on this ship can be resurrected no matter how many times they die. Let her eat her fill first, vent her frustrations, and maybe she'll be in a better mood and start talking?"

"Forget it..."

They've just made their faces known and attracted a lot of hatred; if they're released, they'll probably be the ones chasing after them and tearing them apart.

It's definitely a bit of a headache.

It seems that just talking won't get you anywhere.

I really don't know how the first generation of humans who turned into mermaids mustered up the courage to make contact with this living ancestor...

Or is it that... they recognize fish but not people?

Fortunately, he also had fish on his boat.

I don't know if it's too late to get Sean down now.
