CHAPTER 54 (1/2)

Lost Atlantis 25

Live again? Who was he going to bring back to life?

Sein Hall?

No, don’t mess around. He didn’t want to live. He was dead, please let him enter the water!

Xie Xi was very surprised. He didn’t think there would be a strange thing as resurrection. The background of this world seemed quite normal. The land and seabed all used science and technology. How come there was this strange power?

Maybe it was just a rumour and the fifth and sixth princes had misunderstood?

Xie Xi wasn’t sure and his heart felt very empty. He had to check to see if there was such a setting in this world.

The reserve face could only be used for a period of time and couldn’t exceed half an hour. Xie Xi was very cautious with it, especially the important faces. He wasn’t certain if he could collect the faces again and didn’t dare waste it.

Of course, there was a great risk. Just in case there were hidden cameras, he prepared many similar faces to slowly change his face.

They were the type that made it hard to detect the difference from a distance or the back.

This was also dangerous but it was much better than exposing his original appearance.

Xie Xi investigated overnight and starting sweating.

There really was a record of this phenomenon.

Haiqui itself was quite mysterious. They were primitive underwater creatures and completely different from humans. They were bloodthirsty, aggressive, lacked empathy and even ate their compatriots raw.

They were particularly fond of humans. When Atlantis was part the land and the sea, they didn’t hesitate to go ashore and attack. As long as they could eat people, they didn’t care if they died on the shore.

Once Atlantis sank to the bottom of the sea, they stared at the royal family and rushed over, killing many princes and princesses.

Ironically, the existence of Atlantis underwater created a defense line that made Haiqui unable to eat humans on land. The land people gradually forget the threat of Haiqui and didn’t know that the underwater kingdom was helping them fend off murderous creatures.

This played a large role in the fighting between factions underwater. Atlantis protected humanity but humans didn’t know. They just continued destroying the marine environment.

Intentional hunting led to the extinction of species and excessive discharge of waste also complicated the composition of seawater. The underwater people’s requirements for water were more stringent than the land people’s requirements for air.

Land people couldn’t stand the smog while underwater people couldn’t stand the polluted sea. Their skin would gain sores from prolonged exposure and their internal organs would corrode. Heavily polluted areas were hard to isolate.

The empire invested a great deal of manpower and resources every year to purify the sea, but unfortunately, the results were extremely low.

If the pollution was made by the underwater people, they wouldn’t be so angry. However, the disaster came from the land people who were ‘protected’ by them.

How could the underwater people not feel hatred?

The most extreme militant group even wanted to place the lunatics of Haiqui onto the land to retaliate against the land people.

Of course, this was very irrational. The Haiqui people might lack empathy but they were still highly intelligent creatures. The people in power had even more brains. If the Haiqui people were really let out, it wouldn’t just be the land people who would be eaten.

The state teacher of Haiqui was very mysterious. He was much weaker than the soldiers but he had an incomprehensible power.

There was a real record of him resurrecting someone dead.

The former king of the Haiqui Kingdom was killed by the third prince on the battlefield but he came alive again. The purpose of his campaign this time was to get revenge on the enemy who previously took his life!

Xie Xi saw this and his heart started beating faster. “Resurrection is really possible.”

Roast Pork Bun said, “Daddy isn’t dead. Resurrection is useless.”

Xie Xi wondered, “Will the state teacher know that I’m not dead?”

Roast Pork Bun could be smart. “Then you can meet the sixth prince again. He is so handsome!”

Xie Xi, “…”

He must be infected by the third prince if he wanted to discuss business with the stupid cat.

After seeing this, Xie Xi didn’t dare stay for a long time. He slipped back to his residence and tried to calm down.

Thinking too much was useless. The priority was to seize this time!

He had to quickly complete this task and leave the world, so that he didn’t need to worry about being exposed.

As for the side mission, Xie Xi originally didn’t intend to collect one million tons of garbage. Compared to clearing the world, he preferred leaving here as quickly as possible.

Then what about after he left? A world that hadn’t been cleared wouldn’t be blocked. What should he do if he searched for it again?

If that happened…

No way…

His luck would be too bad! Xie Xi thought about his luck in finding X’s worlds three times. No, Xie Xi didn’t dare give up on this side task. He had to complete it and clear the world, making this world ‘independent’.

It wasn’t for anyone else, it was just for himself! He must never enter this quasi-world again!

Xie Xi raised his spirits and found a chance to run away from the third prince the next day.

The third prince might wait to tie Xie Xi to his belt but Xie Xi spoke very well. He just made an uncomfortable expression and the third prince let him go.

Xie Xi immediately changed to the first face and accepted an errand to send something to the palace of the eldest prince.

He had better luck this time and the eldest prince had just returned.

Xie Xi encountered the prince face to face but showed some restraint because of his guilt.

“I have seen Your Highness.” He gave a bow.

The eldest prince looked at him and didn’t let him get up or leave.

Xie Xi lowered his head while he felt himself being examined. The eldest prince was watching him, just like he watched the second face. No, before Xie Xi started changing faces, he stood guard in the hall and the eldest prince had looked at him the same way.

Xie Xi’s heart tightened. Did the eldest prince recognize him?

Impossible…

It wasn’t just a change in his face. It also changed his temperament and many small habits. It was impossible for the eldest prince to recognize him.

Xie Xi’s body was stiff as he asked softly, “Your Highness?”

The eldest prince finally opened his mouth. “Get up.”

Xie Xi straightened but didn’t dare look up. He wanted to get close to the eldest prince but found that he didn’t know what to do.

When it came to the fifth, sixth, second and third prince, Xie Xi didn’t need to take the initiative. They were all more active than him and rushed to help him fill the task progress.

The eldest prince was very different from them. He kept observing Xie Xi, full of emotions that Xie Xi couldn’t understand.

Xie Xi could only put down the things he was carrying and say, “If Your Highness doesn’t have any commands, this subordinate will go back first.”

The eldest prince replied gently, “Yes.” He was let go.

Xie Xi left without a clue.

What to do? How could he collect the love of the eldest prince?

Xie Xi went to the palace of the fourth prince but it was the same as before. He couldn’t enter through the door and had to put the items down and leave.

The fourth prince was in poor health and wasn’t seeing anyone. Xie Xi felt helpless.

He didn’t receive any gains and returned to the sleeping area of the first place, intending to clean it up. He might not often come back to rest here.

He had just returned when he heard a low voice behind him.

“Who are you?”
