Zhou Si's voice was somewhat indescribable, after all, it was indeed difficult to explain their situation to Lin Guang in a short time. However, Lin Guang was not the type to pry into things. Compared to those complicated reasons, the knight cared more about the safety of Zhou Si and Skadi.
"no problem."
Nearl arrived at Kal'tsit's office at an alarmingly high speed down the corridor, leaving the other operators wondering what had gotten into her and why she was in such a hurry.
dong dong dong.
Nearl knocked on Kal'tsit's office door, and a response came quickly from inside.
"Please come in."
At the desk, Felin, with her light green hair, was working on the documents on the table with her head down. Her beautiful brows were furrowed, and there was no joy on her pretty face, which was as beautiful as a young girl's. Her ears were twitching. The de facto leader of Rhodes Island was in a very bad mood at the moment.
Kal'tsit looked at the report in her hand, the paper twisting and tearing in her grip. She had tried her best to lower her expectations of those capitalists and aristocrats, but the contents of the report still challenged her psychological limits.
[Colombia responded, stating that Haizi's threats were merely alarmist; was the Iberian government being held hostage by a pharmaceutical company?]
The Duke of Victoria stated that without the monarch's order, they had no right to send troops to other countries and were powerless to assist the Iberian request for help.
[Shocking! Does the appearance of Hai Si herald a new path for knightly competitions? Are the competitive knights actually giant octopuses in secret?]
Lin Guang walked in holding his phone, looking at the last report, a question mark slowly appearing above his head.
Wine magazine actually tracked us down here?
"These countries have all rejected Iberia's pleas for help, and currently Haizi's expansion is limited to the vicinity of Iberia's coastline. They are basically happy to see Iberia suffer."
Kal'tsit gently rubbed her forehead. Most of the countries in Terra were currently taking a wait-and-see approach to the existence of the Sea Kings. After all, in their view, even Iberia could hold off these monsters, so they were not a big threat at all.
While they wouldn't allow the Sea Sirens to invade Iberia, they all wanted to find a suitable opportunity to gain more benefits.
The few countries that have recognized the threat posed by the Haizi are either too far away to help or lack the national strength to do so, so even if they wanted to provide assistance, they are powerless to do so.
The situation in Iberia is getting worse and worse. Even without the Sea Cult launching a full-scale attack, more and more villages, towns, and even mobile cities are falling under the control of the Deep Sea Cultists.
I can only hope that things go smoothly on the doctor's end.
"Is there something you need, Lin Guang?"
Kal'tsit sighed inwardly, then looked up at Nearl, who had been waiting for a while, and at the communicator in her hand.
She immediately understood why Nearl had come to see her; it seemed the hunter was alright.
"I am Kal'tsit. I am glad to hear that you are safe and sound."
These words were 100% Kal'tsit's true feelings, and this was probably one of the few pieces of good news she had heard in all these days.
"Dr. Kal'tsit, I'm also glad to be in touch with you again."
Zhou Si spoke somewhat awkwardly in an official tone. He was really not good at communicating with this kind of person, so he decided to use a more efficient approach.
"Skadi is with me now, so your reason for looking for the Red Comet is because of her, right?"
Even Kal'tsit was stunned when she heard the news. She subconsciously stood up from her chair, and her tone became much more urgent.
"Where are you now? I'll send someone to pick you up right away."
Unexpectedly, the hunter actually found Skadi. Could it be that he really defeated the Red Comet?
But the most urgent task is not to think about these things, but to bring Skadi back to the island. Isamara could awaken again at any time, and if she were to return to the Great Group, the world might really be doomed.
"Dr. Kal'tsit, don't be anxious. In fact, I just wanted to discuss this with you."
Then Zhou Si suddenly asked a rather strange question.
"Dr. Kal'tsit, is there any large open space around the Rhodes Island main ship right now? The bigger the better!"
"Yes, we do. Do you need any help?"
Although Kal'tsit didn't quite understand what Zhou was thinking, she still nodded.
"That's good, Dr. Kal'tsit. See you in a bit."
After saying that, Zhou Si hung up the phone, leaving the two of them staring at each other in the office. Kal'tsit was still looking at her phone, which had already gone black.
Kal'tsit fumbled around for a while and roughly figured out how to use the phone. Then she tried to call Zhou Si again, but this time all she heard was a busy signal.
Just as the two were feeling lost, a hurried footstep suddenly came from outside the office, followed by the sound of the office door opening again.
"Please come in."
As soon as Kal'tsit finished speaking, the office door opened, and Amiya pushed it open and ran in.
"Kal'tsit... Doctor Kal'tsit..."
"Slow down, Amiya, what happened?"
Kal'tsit patted Amiya's back gently. After a short while, Amiya gradually calmed down, but the urgency on her face did not diminish at all.
"Dr. Kal'tsit, the engineering department's operators say they've detected energy from the [Crimson Comet]!"
"And it's coming for Rhodes Island!"
Amiya's words made Kal'tsit and Nearl stand up at the same time. This was no small matter. The current situation of Primia was still fresh in their minds. The threat of the [Red Comet] was too great. Fortunately, Kal'tsit was not completely unprepared. She looked at Amiya and told her to immediately inform the others.
"Amiya, go and inform Mostima immediately to prepare."
The little rabbit nodded seriously and then ran out.
But Kal'tsit and Nearl seemed to suddenly realize something. Zhou Si had just said that he needed an open space.
No way......
Chapter Twenty-One: The Caged Cat
"Um... what happened..."
A slightly piercing alarm sounded from outside the door. Elena's delicate eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.
"Quickly, quick, Dr. Kal'tsit wants us to get to the bridge right away."
"Coming, coming, wait for me to get the staff..."
The crowd outside was noisy, with people constantly passing by the medical department, and these sounds attracted the bird's attention.
Something seems to have happened?
Alene thought to herself that the urgency and tension in those people's voices suggested that it was probably not a good thing.
However, this had nothing to do with her. Elena struggled to sit up in bed. She was covered in bandages, with only her head showing, like a newly unearthed mummy.
At this moment, it seemed that only Elena was in the medical department. Her ward was under the care of Dr. Warfarin. Although there were various rumors about the Blood Man on the island, Elena had already lost consciousness when she received treatment.
Moreover, the doctor clearly had a strong aversion to blood infected with Haisi cells, so she wasn't bothered much these past two days.
"In the end, I still can't do it...?"
Looking at the empty room, the little bird felt a little lost. Her wounds still ached. She had woken up yesterday, and the evacuation was a success, but she hadn't had time to be happy yet.
Then he learned from Lin Guang that the hunter had died.
The sudden bad news left Eleanor somewhat bewildered, which subconsciously reminded her of her most respected teacher—Grand Inquisitor Dario.
In order to buy them time, he fell forever beneath the Eye of Iberia. Every time she recalls that experience, Elinie still feels immense sorrow.
Even though I have made more progress and gained more knowledge and power, I am still so powerless when facing truly powerful enemies.
She didn't regret her and Zhou Si's decision; the little bird just couldn't forgive herself for being so powerless.
Although Dr. Warfarin's medical ethics were questionable, his abilities were undeniable. Aline had regained some strength by now. She got out of bed, put on the clean coat that was already washed, and decided to go out and see what was happening.
The corridor was now completely empty; it seemed they had all gone to the bridge. What had happened to warrant so many people going to the bridge?
With a head full of questions, Elena boarded the elevator leading to the bridge. Just as the elevator doors were about to close, she heard hurried footsteps approaching.
"Wait a moment!"
Alene quickly pressed the door open button, and a purple-haired Sarkaz doctor rushed in.
"Thank you... Oh? Miss Elena? What are you doing out here?"
Hibiscus looked at the mummy-like Elene in surprise, her expression full of doubt. She remembered that when Miss Elene was sent to the medical department the day before yesterday, her injuries were quite serious. How could she have recovered so quickly?
"It was a bit stuffy in the ward, so I heard some noise outside and wanted to come out and see what was going on."
"Dr. Furong, do you know what happened?"
Hibiscus shook her head when she heard Elena's question.
"Ten minutes ago, Dr. Kal'tsit summoned all the heads of departments. After Dr. Warfarin returned, he told us to go to the bridge to stand by. We don't know the specifics of the situation."
"That's it..."
Alene was even more puzzled. What had happened to warrant such an order from Dr. Kal'tsit?
While the two were still wondering what was going on, the elevator had already reached the top floor.
"Miss Elena, I need to go and wait for orders. I'll bring you some food later."
Before Elena could speak, Hibiscus ran out, leaving Elena in the elevator with a somewhat uneasy expression. Elena had already tried Hibiscus's nutritious meals when she first joined the company. At that time, she had said a few polite words out of a sense of being a newcomer, but she never expected that the boomerang would come back to haunt her.
Dragging herself up to the bridge, she found most of the elite operators that Elene had seen or heard of on the deck, all solemnly gazing at the sky.
In front of them stood a blue-haired Sarkaz with a black aura, holding two staffs shaped like clocks and keys, ready to fight at the bridge.
Elena approached Nearl, whom she knew well and who was easy to talk to, and went over to her.
"Nearlight Operator, where are we?"
"coming soon."
Nearl didn't answer Eileen's question, but instead stared intently in a certain direction in the sky. Eileen followed her gaze and saw the very familiar [Red Comet] flying towards Rhodes Island.
A hint of fear and hostility flashed in Elena's eyes.
The Crimson Comet destroyed the entire mobile city in her sight, leaving behind her newly met friends in the ruins.
"Cough cough..."
The intense emotional turmoil caused Elene to cough, and Nearl, who was standing nearby, quickly used his Originium Arts to help her recover.
"Thank you..."
Elena straightened up and looked up at the sky again, but this time she noticed something was wrong.
"The Red Comet's speed has slowed down?"
Elena was somewhat confused. She vaguely remembered seeing the red comet when she was evacuating. It streaked across the sky in just a few seconds. Although the comet was also gradually approaching Rhodes Island, its speed was obviously much slower than when it was in Pramia.
"So, Dr. Kal'tsit summoned you all to plan an attack on the [Red Comet]?"
The elite operators around them were already on high alert, but only Kal'tsit and Nearl had very complicated expressions.
"maybe."
Nearl gripped her sword and spear tightly. After all, she and Dr. Kal'tsit were only speculating, and it was best to avoid a fight. Even if conflict was unavoidable, they were fully prepared.
As the Crimson Comet draws ever closer to Rhodes Island, the operators grow increasingly tense.
Until the red star streaked across the sky, its crimson tail splitting the sky in two, and because its speed had slowed down, the engineering department finally managed to capture the true form of the [Red Comet].
Just as Lin Guang had described in his report, a silver-white behemoth, like a jet fighter, was hurtling towards them from within the crimson dragon aura.
But Kal'tsit noticed that in the photos taken by the engineering department, there seemed to be two blurry human figures on the back of the silver dragon.
Kal'tsit watched as the comet finally flew overhead, and ultimately couldn't maintain her composure.
"Go back to your posts."
"Amiya, Nearl, come with me to pick them up."
Chapter Twenty-Two: Zhou Si: My stats are above yours.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone on Rhodes Island, the Crimson Comet crashed straight down onto the plain not far away, causing the earth to tremble and a strong tremor to be felt even inside Rhodes Island.
Kal'tsit dismissed everyone on the bridge. The hunters' identities were special, and Skadi's current state was unclear. Kal'tsit needed to first confirm whether they would have a negative impact on Rhodes Island.
So she only brought Amiya and Nearl with her, plus Elene who followed.
"Miss Elena, why don't you go back and rest first?"
Amiya looked at the little bird tied up like a mummy in the back seat of the car, her eyes filled with worry.
"I'm fine, don't waste any more time... hiss..."
