Chapter 3097

~9 min read 1,716 words

After the protagonist team went to sea, the port of York City gradually became quiet. The workers, merchants, and even the couples who came to the beach to meet privately were all field personnel of the Institution. At this time, these people all withdrew, and the port became exceptionally quiet.

A steel warship was anchored in the near sea. On the pier, soldiers wearing Alliance military uniforms blocked the entire port. Major Gewei, who was in the lead, stood straight. Every few minutes, he would open the pocket watch in his hand and look at the time.

Major Gewei's gloved fingers rubbed the watch cover. He was known for being iron-blooded, but in such an occasion, saying he was not nervous at all was a lie.

A car drove over, brushing past Major Gewei, and the wind pressure lifted his coat hem.

With a screech, the car braked and drifted, nearly rushing into the sea.

Seeing this scene, Major Gewei secretly thought that the Legion Commander of the Institution had a very special way of appearing.

Under Major Gewei's gaze, the driver's door opened, and a large black and white dog jumped out of the car. After the back seat opened, a woman with a unique temperament who made people couldn't help but look at her also got out of the car. After the woman got out, her face didn't look good.

"Am, lift your butt a bit, you sat on my head."

Baha squeezed out of the back seat, breathing in the fresh air. Amidst the creaking sound of steel, Am also got out of the car.

Major Gewei straightened his collar and walked over in big strides.

"Gewei, is it ready?"

Su Xiao got out of the passenger seat. He had just taken a nap. Although he hadn't fought in the last two days, playing against Kingsley in the dark consumed a lot of his mind.

"Ready, Mr. Bai Ye. We can set sail at any time."

Major Gewei's mouth curled up involuntarily. The way Su Xiao addressed him just now was not Major Gewei, but directly Gewei. Generally, only one's own people would address him like this. This layer of relationship with the Institution had been built, which was what he wanted.

"Coming back overnight from the Misi Sea, you've worked hard."

As Su Xiao walked towards the ferry at the pier, figures wearing black clothes walked out from all over the port. These were all members of the Institution, including Su Xiao's newly appointed adjutant Belock.

This time going to sea, Su Xiao brought all the forces that could be drawn. If he was dragged down by an accident, these Institution members would be taken over by Baha. If Baha was also dragged down, it would be stabilized by Adjutant Belock.

Half an hour later, the steel warship set sail, and the propellers at the rear rolled up large splashes of water on the sea surface.

Inside the top cabin of the steel warship, Su Xiao placed the projection device on the table and opened it. The image was reflected on the wall. It was Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang who had placed a miniature listening device on the protagonist team member Nainini.

Although Nainini's perception ability was excellent, this set of listening devices was bought by Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang with its pocket money. Don't underestimate Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's pocket money; it was calculated in Soul Coins.

The picture on the wall gradually became clear. Su Xiao didn't look at the picture. He was enjoying his late-night snack, a piece of supernatural sea beast meat, and the sauce was very good.

Xiang Bubu, sitting on the sofa side-by-side with Su Xiao, was holding popcorn, cola, and all kinds of small snacks. Baha occasionally took a bag, and Lie Chao seemed to want some, but due to the need to maintain cold elegance, she just sat there with her legs crossed.

Su Xiao chewed the tender meat in his mouth and looked at the picture on the wall. It was the cabin of a fishing boat. The five people, the white-haired boy, Aiqi, etc., were sitting in different postures, their bodies swaying slightly left and right with the swaying of the boat.

Inside the fishing boat's cabin, the five were planning how to capture the Mermaid. Among them, Aiqi was holding a tube of fresh blood. According to the investigation of these five, this unknown fresh blood was obtained by the 'Institution' in a town, and was related to Dangerous Object Mermaid.

In the evening, the protagonist team learned this information. They rushed from Gaman City to York City, and after "experiencing hardships", they stole this blood from an office. Among them, Aiqi and Nainini made the greatest contribution.

That's right, these two stole this tube of fresh blood from the office where Su Xiao was.

At that time, Su Xiao was on the second floor, leaning on the chair for a nap. Am and Lie Chao were on the third floor, one sleeping soundly, the other maintaining her source bow.

The one responsible for the infiltration was Aiqi and Nainini. The process was quite tense; that was the branch of the Institution after all.

This made Baha anxious. It was waiting to eat, but those two were dawdling, insisting on scouting the situation first, and then infiltrating. Baha really wanted to tell them both to infiltrate with peace of mind, and no one would ever find them.

The funniest scene appeared after Aiqi and Nainini successfully succeeded. The two of them just got it, because tomorrow was the Summer Festival, someone set off fireworks tonight, and a firework bomb blew the third-floor glass to pieces.

Helplessly, Aiqi and Nainini hid under the bed. They were worried that people downstairs would come to check, or that Am in the room would wake up.

Just like that, the two hid under the bed for more than an hour, which made them anxious. Not only anxious, but also very nervous.

In fact, Am didn't sleep at all. It was starving to death. As a temporary actor, it hadn't eaten dinner yet.

Not only was Am hungry, but Baha downstairs was also very hungry. It almost spat out fragrance. Steal it and get out quickly, delaying our dinner.

After hiding for more than an hour, Aiqi and Nainini finally left secretly. Just like that, they successfully obtained the blood of the little boy from Winter Spring Town.

Interestingly, Kingsley knew how to use the little boy's blood, and Su Xiao had the little boy's blood. The two sides could no longer trade, but the appearance of the protagonist team successfully solved this problem.

On the fishing boat, Aiqi looked at the fresh blood in the test tube through the light, and water bubbles seemed to be surging inside.

"According to the information I know, this is the blood of the offspring. Using this blood to draw a water-spreading imprint on the forehead can avoid waking up the Mermaid, or rather, even if she is woken up, she won't treat us as enemies."

The white-haired boy took the 【Blood of the Offspring】 from Aiqi's hand, and after confirming it again and again, he nodded.

"Doesn't that mean that as long as we find the Mermaid and deal with the dangerous objects around her, we can capture the Mermaid? Unexpectedly simple."

Nainini's words woke up the imperial sister Manli beside her, who said:

"Do you have a feeling that the things we experienced are too smooth, as if... someone has arranged everything behind the scenes."

Imperial sister Manli showed a look of pondering. Hearing her words, the other four all showed serious expressions and began to ponder.

Imperial sister Manli didn't know yet that there were two parties secretly monitoring her. Her behavior at this time was jumping repeatedly between life and death. It was no exaggeration to say that she was courting death in a fancy way.

"It's impossible for anyone to arrange all this in the dark. I feel that the Institution and the Alliance are secretly planning to capture the Mermaid at sea. They are fighting too fiercely, and we took advantage of the loopholes. Look, the Thorn Flower Press was bombed, we have already confirmed that it was the Alliance Council's retaliation against the Thorn Flower Press..."

After Nainini analyzed it, the other four nodded repeatedly. Thinking carefully, it was true. Several big forces were fighting too fiercely, and the third-party Eclipse organization also participated, wanting to seize the blood of the offspring.

Aiqi and Nainini, who stole the blood of the offspring, both sensed a terrifying aura on the second floor of the office. At the beginning, the two looked at the office from afar, as if seeing invisible blood aura drifting from the office, and a blood beast grinning at them. Thanks to Nainini's secret treasure, they were able to infiltrate the place guarded by such a terrifying keeper.

"After we finish this, we will go to the Eastern Alliance immediately. The achievements of several major forces of the Southern Alliance have been stolen by us, and there will definitely be cruel hunting down afterwards."

Hearing Nainini's words, the other four were secretly shocked and agreed with Nainini's proposal. After capturing the Mermaid, run away quickly.

"Alliance Council, Institution, Eclipse organization, I was afraid of the names of these colossal entities from the bottom of my heart before. After actual contact, it's just like that, nothing great."

Imperial sister Manli smiled and shook her head, beginning to doubt the legendary big forces.

"I even thought about joining the Eclipse organization before. Now looking at it, heh, it's too disappointing."

"The Institution is not much better."

The five talked and laughed. They never dreamed that their conversation would be heard by the Legion Commander of the Institution and the leader of the Eclipse organization.

When the protagonist team successfully captured the Mermaid, by that time, they would know what kind of terrifying existence the Institution and the Eclipse organization were. If the situation developed to a certain extent, they might still see Su Xiao and Kingsley, and it would be the two facing each other. I don't know what expressions the five people of the protagonist team would have at that time.
