Clementa nodded, seemingly understanding.
Grandia didn't hide the details of the mission from her, but what kind of person would need a group of deep-sea hunters to supervise their work? Could that Drak be a [Newborn] as well?
After a moment of internal monologue, Clementsa continued:
Is Skadi acting strangely?
They already knew from Amaya, the captured Deep Sea Bishop, that Skadi was possessed by [Isamara].
Agor instructed several deep-sea hunters to stay on land, largely to isolate the ocean from the "newborn" and thus slow down the evolution of the sea creatures.
Goredia glanced at it sideways, then shook her head:
"No, she doesn't seem any different lately."
After saying that, she keenly realized something and pressed for an answer.
"Has Siemens has started evolving rapidly again?"
Clementa's holographic image nodded:
"Moreover, not only that, their evolutionary direction and characteristics are completely different from the past, which makes us suspicious."
"A new [birth]"
Goredia guessed what she wanted to say.
“I will tell Mr. Ernst about this.”
"Thank you for your help, Greta."
Clementa nodded with a wry smile and hung up the call.
But before she could even catch her breath, a deafening roar shattered the tranquility of Myrialium!
The entire governor's office building seemed to shake. Clementine stumbled and fell to the ground with a thud. She dared not move rashly and could only tightly protect her head while activating her shield to prevent falling objects from injuring her.
The alarm light in the Consul General's Office turned yellow for a moment, then quickly turned red, gradually deepening until it finally solidified into a deep red that resembled black. At the same time, the alarm sounded loudly, almost exaggeratedly so.
That was an alarm sound that Clementine had never heard before:
"Top Alert - A super tidal wave has reached within 30 kilometers of the city. Top Alert - A super tidal wave has reached within 30 kilometers of the city. Top Alert!"
Thirty kilometers?
How could it be so close? Where is the Coast Guard? What about the city's detection systems? What about the patrol forces on the outskirts?
Countless thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant. She couldn't care less; forcing herself to remain calm, she struggled to her feet, ran to the emergency communication button on the wall, and pressed it directly.
"This is the territory, this is Myriarum!"
"We are facing an unprecedented tidal wave attack. Requesting backup!"
"Repeating, requesting backup!"
Chapter 1079 For the sake of civilization, let's give our brother a hand!
The people of Iberia never know whether an accident or tomorrow will come first.
More than 80 years ago, a great stillness took away their golden age. Fragments of the past sank to the bottom of the sea and disappeared without a trace. Iberia was left with only a decaying corpse struggling on the indifferent earth.
Carmen once thought that was the end for Iberia.
Until a little over a year ago, Ernst brought his concept of joint land and sea counter-terrorism operations to Iberia.
The Deep Sea Church, sweeping across the land with thunderous force, established Granfalo as a frontier for sea-land cooperation. This dying nation was revitalized in a way that no one had anticipated!
To cooperate with Ernst and to give Iberian civilization a chance, Carmen made a decision that went against her ancestors. Using the absolute authority of the Inquisition in Iberia, she abolished the "genocide order" against the Agorians that had been promoted and implemented by the Inquisition for so long.
This decision, which was almost a desperate gamble, caused a huge uproar within the court at the time. It was only because Carmen, the saint, had enough prestige that the situation in Iberia was barely stabilized.
But since then, he has essentially stepped down from the front lines. The person who truly manages the affairs of the court is now his apprentice—Grand Inquisitor Dario.
Carmen once thought that Iberia would rise again under the leadership of new talents like Dario.
however
"Saint, Your Honor, Your Honor"
In the courtroom of the capital, Perdoni, Saint Carmen and the Grand Inquisitor Dario were present together for the rare occasion of meeting an official messenger from Agor who had rushed there in haste.
The messenger was covered in wounds of all sizes, and some kind of twisted flesh writhed within his wounds, making the horrific injuries difficult to heal.
But what worried Carmen and Dario even more than the wounds was the terrified expression on the Agor people's faces.
They had never seen any Agor from Miriam show such an expression. These "compatriots" from the deep sea always carried an innate arrogance, stemming from Agor's terrifying national power.
But now, he can no longer maintain that lofty arrogance.
The messenger's face was streaked with tears, and at this moment, he looked no different from any other ordinary Terran refugee.
This expression touched Carmen's deepest memories, and as if to confirm his guess, the messenger sighed in a low, humble voice:
"Miriam has fallen!"
Even though he already had some idea of why the messenger had arrived, Dario was still shocked when he actually heard the news, as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer!
Iberia has never feared Agor, and despite the vast difference in national strength, they have no intention of submitting to the Agorians. However, this does not mean that the Iberians are unaware of, do not understand, or do not acknowledge Agor's strength.
Miriam, that city that once rose from the sea and land, anchored in the waters near Granfalo. It was so vast that even Londinium could not match it!
Moreover, Governor Clementsa had already described the defensive strength of Myriarum in her exchanges with the Inquisition. Besides the basic naval patrol, there were four standing legions, countless super-battleships, and a reserve force that remained stationary. She had stated bluntly that if one wanted to destroy the nations of Terra, Myriarum alone would suffice!
She was showing off her military might, and Dario remained skeptical about the truth of her boasts. But as a family member, Dario didn't know about the territories of the various kingdoms, but it was undeniable that it would be easy for Miriam to destroy Iberia!
But how could such a powerful border fortress city have fallen so easily?
Dario's mind was filled with all sorts of questions, so much so that, in a flash, he didn't know how to begin asking.
Carmen stepped forward, pressing down on Dario's shoulder and gesturing for him to calm down before speaking slowly:
"Who attacked you?"
"Haijir."
An answer that was not unexpected.
Carmen had seen the expression on the messenger's face before; he had seen it countless times.
For the past eighty years, this expression has been seen all over Iberia!
The homeless are everywhere from Saltwind City to Perdoni. The destitute line up to commit suicide along the coastline from the salt desert to the old port city. It is in this chaotic environment that the minions of the Deep Sea Church rise up, replacing true beliefs with false faith, shifting the source of conflict from the sea to Iberia, which does not respect the ocean, thus developing a large number of antisocial Deep Sea Church believers!
He raised the banner of the court from the ruins, established a broken order, and struggled to maintain it for eighty years before finally seeing a glimmer of hope for revival.
But now, looking around, Hai Si has arrived again!
Carmen took a deep breath and glanced with a hint of pity at the weeping Agorians before her.
The arrogant and conceited Agor, who flaunted his power all day long, was easily defeated by Haisi.
I really don't know what you were hiding in the past? Iberia, there's still so much that you should learn from our land-based civilization!
The Iberians truly never know whether tomorrow or an accident will come first.
But at the very least, they never lack the courage to snatch tomorrow back from the clutches of the unexpected!
"Dario, summon all the judges of the Inquisition!"
"Get ready to meet the enemy!"
"Saint Lord!"
Agor's messenger let out an incredible scream.
"You have no chance of defeating those damned Sea Sprites. You have no idea how terrifying they are. The Sea Sprites you usually face, the Great Tranquility you have witnessed, and any crisis you have ever encountered are all insignificant compared to this wave of Sea Sprites!"
"and then?"
Carmen countered,
"Am I supposed to abandon the Iberian coastline and retreat? Hand over our land to those damned invaders?"
"Can't win? What nonsense are you spouting? I don't understand!"
His voice was exceptionally loud, both in response to the messenger and in inspiring everyone in the room!
"Fight! Civilization will fight to the last man!"
"We will never surrender!"
Carmen arranged for Dalio's apprentice, Elene, to take the terrified Agor man, who had been frightened by Hai Si, to his room to rest. Carmen then turned to look at Dalio.
Before he could speak, Dario immediately said:
"I will immediately contact the other judges to assemble in the courtroom, and also the disciplinary officer. Is it necessary to recall the Stutifaira?"
The Stutifaira, after completing its repairs a few days ago, sailed into the Krasdeep Sea for a patrol exercise and has not yet returned. Meanwhile, its former captain, Alfonso, is currently also exploring Terra.
Ernst had planned to arrange for Alfonso to go to Colombia to meet with Levy, but he was overwhelmed by the issue of land-sea cooperation, so he put it on hold, and it has been delayed until now.
Carmen nodded slightly:
"Yes, it's the right thing to gather all our fighting forces."
“However, Dario, I need you to do something else first.”
Kidario nodded solemnly:
"Master, what are your instructions?"
"Contact the World Summit, initiate an emergency proposal, and request support."
Carmen said seriously.
He never underestimated Hai Si's strength.
He certainly held those civilized enemies in high regard strategically, hated the monsters that had turned Iberia into what it was today, and never gave up his determination to defeat them. But that didn't mean he was unaware of his own limitations!
Carmen had to loudly rebuke and refute Agor's words, which were undermining morale. Even if what he said was true, that Iberia alone was no match for Haisi, Carmen still had to shout and refute it!
If morale is low, the troops will be difficult to lead! If there are too many surrenderers, the battle will be lost!
Tactically, however, he had to be well prepared for a group of Sea Hells who could bring down the entire Miriam in such a short time.
We're willing to fight, but we won't give it away for nothing!
Life is precious too!
"The Sea Crisis is not just a crisis for Iberia alone; it is an enemy of all civilizations. Ernst once said that one of the purposes of the World Summit was to ensure that the nations of Terra could remain united in dealing with this super crisis that would affect the entire Terra!"
"Now is the time."
Carmen instructed, enunciating each word clearly:
"Be sure to convey my words to Ernst: Iberia will shed its blood for Terra and vow to keep Haisi out!"
"But Iberia also hopes that Terra can unite in the face of crisis and work together to fight the enemy."
"Please, Mr. Ernst, for the sake of civilization, lend us a hand!"
Chapter 1080 Ernst: We are not helpless in the face of natural disasters!
Shelag, Tukarim, the venue for the World Summit.
Representatives from Victoria, Ursus, Yan, Letania, and Colombia took their seats in turn. Mostima, the representative from Laterano, followed Ernst into the hall.
This sparked some quiet discussion.
It's not about discussing anything else, but mainly about being surprised by Ernst's attendance. After all, since the International Summit officially began operating, Ernst, as the interim secretary-general, has essentially been a monarch inactive, missing meetings a staggering 90% of the time—a feat unprecedented and unlikely to be repeated.
If he hadn't actually been working for the World Summit, and doing so in a significant way, many people might have questioned how Ernst became the Secretary General.
His arrival in person has sparked curiosity among some unsuspecting members of the World Summit. Could there be something very important to discuss at today's routine meeting?
It really does.
"This morning, we received devastating news from Iberia."
"The Sea Si launched simultaneous attacks on Agor and the land. Miliarum has fallen, and Iberia is now preparing to fight back, but the situation is very dire."
The fewer the words, the bigger the matter. After Ernst's brief briefing, the representatives of the various countries fell silent.
Apart from the five permanent members of the UN Security Council who had already learned of the dramatic changes at sea through Ernst or their own domestic intelligence channels, the other smaller countries almost instantly erupted in discussions and uproar.
They were discussing what the Haisi was, how Milyarum had fallen, what the Agorians and Iberians were doing, and how such a major event could suddenly occur on such a peaceful day!
Ernst did not stop their discussion. An explosive piece of news naturally requires time to digest, especially since he himself was somewhat caught off guard by the news.
