Deep Sea Hunter, but Deep Sea Titan

The doctor hadn't expected that Lotin's Kuranta body would have such a remarkable background.

"Long time no see, Doctor from Rhodes Island."

"Are you making house calls?"

In Lotin's view, this was indeed a very Rhodes Island-style event.

"The combined treatment project was approved quickly, but given the current situation, it will take time for the funds from Kazimir to be allocated."

The doctor was well aware of the current situation in Kazimierz; however, the restoration of order in Kazimierz was only a matter of time.

Moreover, Lotin's actions did objectively eliminate the Business Federation, which was trying to block Rhodes Island and turn the infected into free laborers to die on Plot Zero.

"It's just that Amiya finds your approach somewhat unacceptable."

The doctor looked at Amiya, who was standing silently beside him. She was just busy preparing some medicine bottles for him and did nothing else.

“She doesn’t need to understand. As the Doctor of Rhodes Island, my ideals are different from those of Rhodes Island. As the leader of Rhodes Island, she has beliefs that she needs to uphold.”

"But as we agreed in the agreement, this is an area where we will not interfere with each other and will respect each other."

Among Rhodes Island's allies, there are many cases like Lotting's where there is no common ground in their ideologies.

"Of course, of course."

"The Radiant Knight is also an operator of Rhodes Island, and we will fully support her."

The doctor nodded slightly. Amiya was still in a state of confusion, mainly because she didn't know how to face Lotin.

"However, in addition to the original work, I originally wanted to invite you to visit the Grand Knight's Territory together."

"But I presume you have already looked down upon this city from a high vantage point."

The doctor knew, of course, that the current atmosphere and objective circumstances were clearly not suitable for sightseeing in the Great Knight Territory, so this was just an insignificant complaint.

"That's right, Doctor of Rhodes Island. We have the entire anthill-like city in sight."

"Such a boring place is really not worth visiting."

"Perhaps the coastlines and wilderness we traversed with Nautilus are more memorable than this?"

Laurentina seems to be showing off again.

Chapter 101: Are you the conqueror?

“Miss Agor, there seems to be no need for you to emphasize this.”

"I hope your confidence isn't just empty bravado."

The doctor maintained his smile, but he was inwardly very unhappy.

The doctor had only one thought in his mind: Who asked you that?

"Of course it's not bluffing, Doctor of Rhodes Island."

Just as Lotin had predicted, Laurentina showed no sign of backing down.

Amiya, seeing this, suddenly stopped flipping through the medical records and looked at the doctor with a look of astonishment.

Her eyes seemed to say, "Mom, what are you doing?"

Amiya only now noticed the unusual atmosphere that had developed between the Doctor and the woman next to Mr. Nautilus.

"Doctor, what are you doing?"

Amiya quietly tugged at the Doctor's sleeve, thinking that the Doctor was probably indeed overworked.

"It's nothing, Amiya. You've worked hard today too."

"This is just normal consultation and exchange with allies."

The Doctor gently stroked Amiya's head as usual, but Amiya felt that the Doctor's words today had a different meaning.

It's like saying, "Children shouldn't ask about adult matters."

Lotin found this strange and asked Laurentina in the chat box of the system interface why she had such a hostile attitude towards the Doctor of Rhodes Island.

"That was my gut feeling. Why would a workaholic who lives a secluded life suddenly invite a new ally he doesn't know very well to tour the city?"

Laurentina's analysis wasn't entirely without merit, but Lotin still stated:

“You’re being a little too sensitive, nun.”

Lotin genuinely didn't see the Doctor as posing any of the "threats" Laurentina imagined.

He felt that the PhD student was willing to chat with him more because of a sense of camaraderie between compatriots.

“No, Nautilus, I feel the same way.”

Skadi has never liked to express her opinions on such topics, but this time, she also expressed her views in the system's chat interface.

If it were just Laurentina's unfounded speculation, Lotin would only think it was due to her personality and mental state. But this time, even Skadi expressed a similar opinion, which suggests that things are starting to look more serious.

Now Loting has to be careful; hopefully, his doctoral training program won't go too far.

So far, Loting hasn't done anything too outrageous; he just gave the Doctor a mana potion when the Doctor was under a lot of pressure.

Luo Ting stated that he was innocent and had a clear conscience.

In this matter, rather than worrying about whether he might overexert himself, the primary concern he needs to consider is how to withstand the pressure from the Originium Demon under these circumstances.

"conqueror."

From the nearby warehouse emerged a horned Sarkaz woman, her longsword gleaming coldly in the light of the tent lantern.

“Over the years, your thirst for tithes has only grown stronger.”

"I thought that after losing Kazdel and Kazimir, two important sources of tax revenue, you wouldn't be able to regain your former glory in front of the world."

The long white hair and the tattered black robe confirmed the other person's identity to Loting.

Shining, the Pardoner, is also a Rhodes Island operator.

Behind her was a Sarkaz woman with light blonde hair, carrying a lantern. Lotin judged that she must be the operator Nightingale.

"The Pardoner. Because I focus on future enemies, there is never too much power."

It is an extremely arrogant act to have a safe and efficient way to enhance one's strength but not use it.

Even if all traces are erased, you will still remember?

Lotin noticed that the other party addressed him not as the Bronze Ghost, nor as the Giant Knight or the Knight of Light, but as "The Conqueror."

"I have never seen you so eager to collect offerings. What is it that makes someone like you feel so powerless?"

Shining nodded. She meant no harm and had no suspicion; it was simply because this "Conqueror" differed somewhat from the past she knew.

In her mind, the "Conqueror" was a being who simply enjoyed killing and war. After the Demon King held a bloody grand ceremony, he would appear from a giant lake of boiling blood.

"This time, which demon king's offering will you accept?"

Shining presented a choice without any hesitation.

"The era of two kings is over; Kazdel has no second king now."

"The crux of the matter is which demon lord's offerings will win my favor, Sarkaz."

Lotin glanced at Amiya inside the tent out of the corner of his eye.

Although the system interface did not provide detailed information about the "Conqueror" skin, Lotin could reasonably predict that the tithe for this skin would most likely be related to directly killing enemies.

That would be a true blood tax, and even if it ended up as a scene of "blood sacrifice to the blood god, skull offering to the skull seat," Luo Ting wouldn't be surprised in the slightest.

Everyone has a Berserker Darkblade form, right?

"You are indeed a conqueror."

"Then, until we meet again."

Shining adopted an "that's it" look, as if it wasn't her concern which one who claimed to be the Demon King ultimately received the Conqueror's help.

Shining walked towards Golden Feather Avenue, towards the Light family's residence.

Lotin roughly calculated the current time. Rhodes Island was heading to Victoria, which meant that the confrontation between Rhodes Island and the Sarkaz Military Council was about to begin.

Rhodes Island, though called a medical company, is actually more of a power-in-exile organization from the Tower of Babel era, a legacy of the Babel period.

"Perhaps this will be the skin with the simplest unlock conditions and the easiest tithe collection."

Luo Ting thought this way, since this skin would most likely only require him to kill a lot of people to trigger the skin's passive effect and collect tithes.

The tithe provided by the Kazimierz people did allow him to obtain some skin fragments for strange skins, such as the "Lost Continent" skin, whose specific cultural region was not apparent, and he also obtained seven or eight fragments of the "Conqueror" skin.

However, once he comes into contact with the Sarkaz and touches the skin token, he can probably obtain a lot of [Conqueror] skin fragments at once.

Most of the tasks were strange odds and ends or various old versions of potions.

However, Lotin's efforts to restore the Giant Knights' influence in Kazimierz will take time; the seeds have been sown, and now all that's needed is for them to blossom and bear fruit.

At that time, the tithe provided by Casimir will be able to supply Lotin with all sorts of useful items.

"What did Shining and you talk about?"

The doctor stepped out of the tent and asked a question from behind Lotin.

"Could it be that you have also prepared a Sarkaz body?"

Laurentina and the Doctor asked the same question in unison, their expressions of frustration being remarkably similar.

It seems they have a particular obsession with, or rather... preference for, a certain skin of Lotin?

too weird.

"We have indeed made preparations."

Lotin nodded. It seemed that the doctor had summarized a strange pattern from a strange perspective, but it didn't seem to be a problem.

Before unlocking the next skin, Lotin often encounters some key characters.

Aside from the fact that he stubbornly cobbled together the [Light Knight] skin in the early days.

Chapter 102: The King of Kazimir's Resilience

The doctor seemed to think that Lotin always had strange conversations with people of certain races and with deep backgrounds, as if they were already familiar with each other.

Therefore, the doctor reasonably speculates that this generally implies that Lotin once did some very bizarre things in the body of the corresponding race.

Don't be so surprised.

Lotin waved his hand dismissively, recalling how Laurentina was truly shocked by his ears when she first saw his true form appear in Kuranta's appearance.

However, she and Skadi eventually got used to some of the things about Lotin that defied common sense, including the change in race.

Moreover, Skadi's understanding of Originium Arts had already been distorted since she came ashore.

"There's no need to dwell on which body I present to the world, Doctor of Rhodes Island, and Sister."

Loting then took out a bottle of mana potion and handed it to the doctor, instructing him to...

"This thing cannot replace your normal rest, Doctor of Rhodes Island."

Loting specifically pointed out that, judging from the Doctor's current state, she seemed to be using the mana potion as some kind of powerful energy drink.

"Thank you again, Mr. Nautilus."

The doctor accepted the bottle of strange blue liquid again. Her tired face was reflected on the round surface of the glass bottle. The last light in the tent went out, and the on-duty medical staff began to pack up the equipment and supplies. She watched as the silver giant disappeared at the other end of the street.

The following day, the site of the former Security Council was finally reassembled onto the periphery of the mobile city.

The site where the supervisory board is located was previously completely separated from the main city. Of course, it was not a residential area, so the interim government of Qasim did not need to carry out any additional resettlement or evacuation work.

Revising the history book is not difficult.

"You plan to build a memorial hall on the ruins of the Securities and Futures Commission?"

"And open that stone tablet that records a fabricated history to the public?"

Margaret has been forced to bury herself in heavy paperwork. Fortunately, during her time serving Rhodes Island, the island provided her with many free and high-quality paperwork training opportunities. She is no longer the naive girl who couldn't even handle the entry procedures at the last Major.

Lotin did indeed keep his word and refrained from interfering in the specific internal affairs of Kazimierz, thus power was temporarily concentrated in Margaret's hands in a strange way.

Margaret Nearl was forced to accept this power. Given her abilities and background, she was not originally capable of properly digesting this enormous power that was enough to control the entire Kazimierz. Her only reliance was the absolute power of the Giant Knight, which was enough to suppress everything.

This is what makes the current power structure in Kazimir so strange.
