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

Just as he was figuring out how to get Sean down, he suddenly remembered something else.

Blue light leaked through the gaps between the fingers.

When Renyi opened his palm again, a deep blue stone with seawater ripples appeared inside.

Larimar

[Comment: This could also be called "Easy Swimming." It originates from the strength and struggle of a king of the sea over half a lifetime, and now... you've taken it. PS: Taking everything will only make you richer.]

This contains the purest Siren power that Arthur lost control of.

Not only do they share the same ancestry as sirens, but their bloodline also originates from the Liv fish.

That is her own strength.

It must be something she knows all too well.

He casually held the stone in his palm and pressed it against the cold glass wall.

The moment it approached Liv, the Larimar suddenly shone brightly, its deep blue ripples spreading out like a calm sea. The shimmering light penetrated the ice layer, turning the entire tank a deep blue.

Inside the water tank, the previously frenzied siren stopped its headbutting.

That power...

That power, originating from the depths of her bloodline and seemingly a part of her life, warm, familiar, and connected to her by blood, gently soothed her body, which was numb from the cold, and her furious soul.

She sensed no malice, only kindness and exhaustion... and a touch of sadness.

How...how is this possible?!

When did she ever have something like that?

Arbitrarily retrieved the Larimar Stone, and the light on the stone disappeared. "Astin, you continue."

"Continue with what?"

"Keep talking to her and ask her if she wants to come out."

As if facing certain death, Esting continued to babble in front of the glass tank.

The siren in the tank kept its eyes fixed on Renyi with vigilance, emitting a low growl.

She said, "Where did you land thieves steal my power from?"

Tell her we're on the same side.

His expression remained unchanged.

"We come from the future; this was given to us by her grandson."

"puff,"

Noah burst out laughing, teasing, "Is this how you woo girls... arranging a grandson for someone across time and space? Couldn't you at least use a different excuse?"

If you're willing, just roll your eyes at him.

"Hmm... there's really nothing to talk about with someone who's lived for thousands of years and is still single."

Before Noah could react, he pressed Esting down in front of the water tank.

"Tell her we have evidence from the future. And we'll get her out of here; if she cooperates, the stone is hers."

Sirens are a species with advanced intelligence.

Liv scrutinized the humans outside through the ice for a few seconds before nodding with great reluctance.

"Boss, she agreed!"

Esther turned around excitedly.

"She said to trust us for now, but if we dared to lie to her, she'd rip our insides out!"

With the cooperation agreement reached, the next challenge is yet to come.

Liv could get out of the water tank, but this is the second basement level, and the only way to get up is through the lobby.

By now, quite a few people should have gathered in the hall.

Noah, hands tucked in his pockets, walked around the glass tank once and stopped beside Renyi:

"The hall is bustling right now. If you're planning to push this shiny silver thing right up there, I suggest you stop by the kitchen and grab some cumin or lemon slices."

"but......"

"If you beg me, maybe I can go up there and cause a little mischief, like... tying those twins to the top of the champagne tower?"

He turned his head away in a disdainful manner:

"How old are you to bully two little kids?"

Noah reached up and scratched his ear, thinking he had misheard.

"Do you have some misunderstanding about the definition of a child? Those two little ones don't really qualify as children. Don't be fooled by appearances, even if they look like children and talk like children—"

He interrupted him at will, saying, "That's enough."

It is true that Delphina and Mikaje merge into an indescribable monster at night.

But that was just their way of life.

During the day, they are children who will hold your hand and ask for candy, and who will laugh nonstop at a joke.

As long as they pose no threat to him or his people, Ren Yi is willing to treat them like children.

not to mention......

Compared to those two little creatures, this guy who has lived for thousands of years is obviously a much greater threat.

It's very clear that there's no way to control someone like Noah.

Deterrence or interests can only maintain a balance temporarily, and you may be bitten back at any time for some inexplicable reason such as "bored" or "I want to".

"They didn't hurt anyone; to me, they're just kids."

Upon hearing this...

Noah scrutinized Renzi as if he had suddenly fallen ill and forgotten what it looked like.

But the other person was very open and let him look at it.

This is the desired effect.

When dealing with someone like Noah who has seen too much of the dark side, the worst thing you can do is try to outdo him in being worse and show your lack of decency.

The opposite of.

If you demonstrate extremely high moral standards that he might scoff at, and practice maintaining a positive image in your actions, a cognitive anchor will be formed in his subconscious.

This person is easy to understand and easy to manipulate.

With this premise, Noah would fall into the "good guy trap," lower his guard, and subconsciously tolerate his occasional offenses.

"...You're such a kind person."

Noah laughed and reached out to pat Renyi on the shoulder.

This outsider in front of me is ruthless and meticulous, yet he is also naive and stubborn in some ways, which is a fascinating contradiction.

He said sarcastically:

"Okay, great job. So what do you suggest? We can't expect everyone to go blind and clear a path for you, can we?"

"or......"

He stroked his chin and came up with another terrible idea, "Shall we let her out and let her fight her way out?"

"Mr. Noah, I find your enthusiasm for creating chaos a little too much."

"Life is short, so of course we should enjoy it while we can."

"Then why don't you go run naked around the lobby a couple of times?"

He sincerely suggested, "With so many spectators there, it's bound to create a huge sensation."

"..."

The confrontation here has come to a temporary end, and Luigi and Esting are already scrambling to get Liv into her wheelchair.

Liv's tail was so long that her tail fin could only drag on the floor to sweep away dust.

Keeping his word, the captain handed her the Sea Soul Stone.

Luigi took off his shirt, turned it over to cover the tail, which was still covered in ice, and then spoke to Renyi:

"If it's just about avoiding the lobby, I might have a way."

"The boiler room's pipes connect the entire ship. Although it's for transporting steam, there are several maintenance access routes, which should be enough for us to pass through."
