48 Hours a Day

Two days later, Shen Xixi stood on the deck, looking out over the land that was fading out of sight in the distance.

The man in the flowery shirt had just finished checking the sailing route and also came out of the captain's cabin.

"I read your medical report, everything else is fine, only your mental state seems to be a bit tired, is it because you've been too busy lately?"

"Well, my team and I have been driving around for the past month and a half without much rest." Shen Xixi took a cup of hot coffee from the man in the flowered shirt.

"Then you can rest now, it's probably going to be a long trip." The man in the flowered shirt said, "Of course, if you're bored and looking for some entertainment, you're always welcome to come to my room as well."

"Thanks, but I don't need any entertainment." Shen Xixi replied.

"Although I already knew that you were using me, it was still unexpected that you turned your back on me so quickly, your attitude towards me after boarding the ship was visibly colder, it's really sad, no matter how nice you say, but I took a lot of pressure to get you on board, and not everyone on this ship is as generous as me, planning to forgive you for what you did that night in the valley The thing."

"It doesn't matter, I didn't come on the ship to make friends." Shen Xixi paused and then continued, "You have time to whine there, why don't you tell me what my next plan is, before on land you said you wanted to keep it a secret, but we're out to sea now, so we can always talk about it."

"Of course, you're a member of the Deep Sea Hunters now, that's a reasonable request." The man in the flowery shirt stroked his chin, "I've always been suspicious of people, and since I've decided to let you on board, I won't look at you with tinted glasses like everyone else, what do you want to know?"

"How do we find the ...... target?"

"We're not going to find him." The man in the flowered shirt said leisurely, "The gods have lost track of him after Poseidon was killed, and we've got all kinds of modern technology, but we're probably giving it away for nothing, so we need to think differently - let him come to us."

"How?"

The man in the flowery shirt mysteriously sniffed and smiled, "By bait."

Shen Xixi looked slightly moved at the words, the man in the flowery shirt seemed to guess what she was thinking and lost his smile, "Not you, although you are related to Zhang Heng, but Zhang Heng has already died and only one body is left, the one who is now occupying that body is the Lord of Lalaye, he won't have those memories of Zhang Heng's life, even if I use you as bait, it will be of no use. "

"What's the bait?"

The man in the flowery shirt didn't rush to answer this time, "I could tell you right now, but this trip is so boring and you've made it clear that you don't plan to engage in any entertainment in the meantime, so it's better to leave a puzzle for you to guess."

Shen Xixi didn't dwell on this question even after hearing the words, and continued to ask, "If the Lord of Zhang ...... Lalaye does appear, how are we going to deal with him?"

"The freighter was modified before she left, loaded with torpedoes and missiles. One main gun and three secondary guns, all hidden under the deck, will be raised when there's nothing else to see."

"Haven't these thermal weapons been proven before to have little effect on their targets?" Shen Xixi asked.

"That's right, so the key this time is the ammunition, whether it's torpedoes, missiles or main and secondary guns all supplied by the Guardians."

"What's this, a plus-sized regicide bullet?" Shen Xixi frowned.

"Yes, as far as I know the blood of the gods used alone weighed several tons, and it is said that the guardians found the most precious healing items and bled those gods day and night, then healed them, then bled them again, and repeated 24 hours. That's what brought together the needed materials." The man in the flowery shirt said heart-stopping words without changing his face.

"But wouldn't you not be able to use all these weapons you have if he showed up directly on our ship?"

"Don't worry, we're sure we've thought about that as well, you'll see then."

The man in the flowered shirt said as he felt a fishing rod from somewhere, "Any other questions, you don't need to be entertained, but I do."

"Yes, do the gods know about our operation and how they plan to work with us?"

"Those guys can't be relied on, it's better not to count on them." The man in the flowery shirt shook his head, "The probability of this final battle is us humans ourselves, there are six more ships like this, departing from different ports, if only one of us can get our hands on them, we'll be able to save the entire world."

............

As the ships of the Deep Sea Hunters sailed out of the harbor, on the other side, a meeting was taking place in the mansion of Pluto to the point of utmost importance.

The unfavorable war with the Lord of Lalaye had divided the gods into two factions, one that advocated continuing the fight to protect the world and their own source of power, but the other faction that had emerged had come up with a new plan.

"The Eden Project, are you guys serious?" Ares, the god of war, was livid, he suspected something was wrong with his ears.

"Admit it, there's nothing we can do about him, Odin is severely injured, Zeus' artifact Thunder is destroyed, the spirit of the God of Science is contaminated and we don't know when it will heal, and we lost a lot of money in the previous battles." Isis, the goddess of life, chimed in.

"But there are still many of us, and enough strength to fight on, far from giving up." Ares raged, "Even those tiny, short-lived humans have the courage to continue fighting for sex, are we as gods inferior to them?"

"This isn't something courage can fix, Ares." The Tarot God chimed in, "We want to keep fighting, too, but only if it's a meaningful fight, not one that pushes us further to the brink of destruction, and picking out a group of unspiritually contaminated human toddlers and taking them into a safe place where he'll never find them, and teaching them with care, before it's too late, is the only thing we can do. "

"And what about the billions of people out there?" Ares felt like he was going crazy.

"There's no way out, we can't risk it, as long as one person's spirit has been contaminated and brought into Eden, then eventually he'll go in too, instead, as long as we can keep Eden pure, all the humans outside will soon be dead, because that guy will bring destruction to the earth, and when everyone outside dies, he naturally can't exist any longer, but we, still You can live on the humans in the Garden of Eden until you are back on this earth again."
