Fortunately, Aileen, as an evil spirit, wasn't that sentimental and quickly returned to normal: "Alright, I'm going to practice the advanced techniques of the Dancing Girl. Don't call me if you don't have to..."

I promise not to call!

Being with Nancy felt like a refreshing breeze, instantly cleansing the mind that had been long tormented by Aileen's madness and the antics of the Hell Demonesses—Holy Shit! I almost forgot about them! This doesn't count as abandoning the old for the new, right?

Chun switched to his alternate account and found that he was still mining in the previous mining area.

Gotta admit, even with two Grandmasters in the team, expecting three people to fill up this massive convoy of dozens of vehicles is not a one or two-day affair.

The key point is, why are the two Grandmasters resting, but I'm not?

Okay, maybe it's because I have the Earth Lotus constantly absorbing energy. Perhaps that's why even the Grandmasters are impressed?

Speaking of which, it's almost the time for President Sister to repay her debt after 3 days. The guild has over a million, the first task is a given, let's see what her second task will be.

Maybe I can make a request, see if she can arrange for some master-level people to come over. If that won't work, I should perhaps practice forging to make a bunch of mining masters?

Anyway, nothing to do here, just keep hanging in.

...

Chun switched back to his main account and continued to ask about the island's figures, doing his homework in advance.

"What happened to the medical minister Shirits later on?"

"He was assisting me with research, but was soon transferred away."

Transferred away? Chun's eyebrow twitched: "On the day of the accident, how many officials were still on the island?"

Nancy was also stunned: "I really don't remember this, as I mentioned before, there was a memory gap for me on the day of the accident."

Chun instantly understood, from the start Old Tie was using his fists to be the boss, then Old Wall Lamp asserting seniority, and then the foreman being all mighty—all clearly because there were no officials among the evil spirits!

Which means, all the officials knew about the accident and evaded it in advance, yet I issued the order to bury the formula to these officials. Thankfully, the true formula is in the secret room of the pool.

Also, it can be imagined, what kind of forces have these fleeing officials' families developed into over a hundred years now? Additionally, since the very beginning, I discovered an illusion potion in the aristocratic circle, and a series of illusion industries like various Treasure Hunters and Hell Mushrooms—concluding that these people are probably colluding with demons now!

Perhaps the Shadow Demon that Aileen took out earlier was also a force from this group...

The waters of this Main City are too deep!

Just not sure what role does Fafnir play in it?

And what role does the fake Angel Maria play?

Headache. Forget it, over-researching relationships only shows that my strength is insufficient. Back then, I was all about technology and utterly disdained relationships, not even telling my supervisor I had an uncle...

So, the focus is developing my own power.

Chun asked again: "What about the Pumpkin Knight? I have a pile of pumpkin seeds and want to find an opportunity to specially cultivate pumpkins as a medicinal formula."

"The island is poor, his experience in growing pumpkins is quite impressive, his mind very agile and adaptable, can be heavily utilized..."

Hmm? Chun suddenly remembered something, even if the Mermaids were given the formula, they don't have this original pumpkin seed, what about the effect?

Forget it, just the low-end version, probably no problem suppressing a pandemic...

While chatting, Nancy suddenly became alert: "A Sea Beast has entered our territory!"

Truly worthy of being the Guardian God, the alert range is second only to the offshore Crow.

Chun was delighted: "It's just Old Whale coming, let's go, let's treat him together."

"Okay!"

Upon arriving at the dock, they suddenly saw a column of water breaking through the waves ahead: "I'm here again!"

Nancy exclaimed: "So this is the Whale that the City Lord mentioned earlier, it's really strong! I must treat it seriously!"

Old Whale was delighted: "Is it edible?"

Nancy said: "It's to be applied, might sting a bit, best—I'd suggest you dash directly onto the beach, ground yourself for application, so the seawater doesn't dilute the medicine."

"Got it!"

Old Whale directly thumped its tail, and with a splash, its massive body actually dashed onto the beach, no, over the beach, directly onto the stone plaza on the dock!

Holy Shit!

Chun was utterly stunned, thinking it would at least take a retreat of a hundred meters for a sprint, but it just slapped its tail. If this were martial arts, it would be called "Inch Force," right?

Old Whale said: "This is good, not a drop of water, won't pick up sand, smooth and good for turning over…"

Chun was convinced: "You really get it!"

Chun seriously suspected that it could really do land combat! As long as it pushes itself ashore and flips over a few times, it would be absolute crushing like a steamroller! No, how can any pressure machine compare to its size…

Chun opened the box and the bottle, revealing a can of plaster-like oily mud, which would probably remain intact for a hundred years.

Nancy started applying it, where it was applied, mist rose, blood foamed and churned.

Old Whale couldn't help but grunt!

Chun exclaimed: "Does it hurt?"

"Painful! But also very comfortable..."

Nancy was gratified: "Then it means it's working!"

So Nancy flew up and down, applying while occasionally using Holy Light Healing, the dirty blood from under the Whale's body filled an entire street.

Nancy said: "You can turn over now!"

Old Whale said: "This place is dirty, I'll move to a new spot to turn over!"

With that, it took a deep breath and bounced its belly on the spot, really bouncing a few meters high, several meters away, then bounced continuously like a ball, into another clean block!

No, this is already deep into the town, right?

Chun's perception was completely turned upside down, Old Whale really could do land combat! Its mobility and impact were unbelievable! And it clearly didn't use its full strength.

Then, if the island's development hits trouble, just go and raid Pirate Island, Old Whale just needs to bounce a few times, and the Pirates wouldn't collapse? Wait, my backup plan is to be a Pirate, how can I go after Pirates?

Hmm, totally acceptable, have to beat them into submission, then have them deposit money in my bank, don't randomly bury treasures on deserted islands, making fake Treasure Maps everywhere...

Also need to change the combat perception from earlier, previously always thought Sea Monster attacks on warships were about ramming the hull, facing colossal ships like the Silver Queen, staring blankly. Now it's different, just jump up from the sea and smash onto the deck...

Finally, having used up all the medicine boxes, Old Whale was fully slathered.

Nancy said: "A giant Sea Beast can't support its weight well on the ground, if uncomfortable you can return to the sea anytime."

Huh? Indeed! Sea Beasts have the buoyancy support of water, hence their enormous size.

Old Whale, however, took a deep breath, its whole body swelling like a ball: "I don't want to dilute the medicine, I feel really good now, no, I sense a huge power about to break through limits!"

Chun was genuinely ecstatic, with its breakthrough, who knows to what level my Cleaner Fish might also rise!

At this moment, Nancy suddenly became alert: "There's something floating over from the sea!"

Chun promptly looked over, and there truly was a huge shadow writhing in the sea.

Old Whale suddenly spearheaded: "Old rival, just in time!"

Holy Shit! Could it be the Octopus from the Sea Abyss making an active move?
