Meanwhile, on the large screen in the hall, the live broadcast from the top of Jingli Mountain was still being played, and various experts were actively discussing post-disaster reconstruction and the current situation.
Director Yano Yamakawa saw Taita Takeshi enter, immediately waved to him expectantly to come closer, and simultaneously shouted at everyone in the hall:
"Everyone, quiet! Everyone, quiet!"
"Quick, any latest news, report immediately!"
Taita Takeshi walked to the stage, at this moment the entire hall went silent due to the director’s shout, and everyone focused their gaze on him.
Under such high-pressure environment, everyone looked at Taita Takeshi with hopeful eyes, and a thought flashed through his mind: since Just Eleven, that scoundrel, wanted to act shamelessly while the bodies were still warm and couldn’t report!
Then he might as well take the credit first.
"Director, this is the latest data obtained from the crater of Jingli Mountain!"
With that, Taita Takeshi instructed the screen operator to switch the screen, pointing to rows of data and explaining:
"According to the on-site exploration, there are still signs of significant magma activity underground in Jingli Mountain, and the possibility of secondary eruptions cannot be ruled out!"
"Based on the current data, even if no secondary explosion occurs, the magma on the mountain top, given the current flow rate, shows no sign of stopping, like an ongoing flood!"
"It’s expected to affect even more cities!"
"What’s more terrifying is that at this rate, it will soon flow towards the nearest chemical plant!"
...
The scene fell silent instantly!
Everyone was stunned when they heard the words "chemical plant"!
All present were experts from various fields, and they clearly knew what the words "chemical plant" meant, and even understood that if the magma reached the chemical plant, it might indeed bring about an ultimate catastrophe!
Initially, when Taita Takeshi received the data from his subordinate, he was also shocked, organized his language outside for a long time before daring to come in.
Director Yano Yamakawa suppressed his shock, didn’t immediately discuss rescue measures, instead showing interest in the origin and whereabouts of that figure.
"Continue, talk about other discoveries!"
Taita Takeshi organized his thoughts and then answered: "No other discoveries!"
"When we reached the top of the mountain, we found more than ten bodies of Atlantis people, presumably border crossers, whose identity information couldn’t be identified."
"Now the bodies have been sent to the lab for dissection and study, to see if any results can be obtained!"
Taita Takeshi downplayed the credit of Just Eleven and others with the simplest words, making himself feel somewhat proud.
Now it seems, his findings are clearly much bigger than those of the emergency response team.
"What about that figure!?"
"The one who came out alive from the magma and ran towards the other side of the mountain?"
Yano Yamakawa looked at him incredulously, if according to him, who killed those bodies, and will that figure be among them.
Taita Takeshi shook his head, answering: "No!"
"We can only wait for the news from Just Eleven and the others from the anatomy lab."
Taita Takeshi’s brief answer not only overshadowed the heroic deeds of the emergency response team but also set a pitfall for Just Eleven, waiting for him to explain his indecent actions with the bodies when he returns.
In fact, Director Yano Yamakawa already lost interest in that figure after listening to Taita Takeshi’s account.
If he could come out of the magma, it’s normal not to catch him.
Right now, what troubled him most was the flow of magma of Jingli Mountain!
If according to Taita Takeshi’s data, the pressure on his shoulders as director would become heavier!
Subsequently, Yano Yamakawa gathered all the volcanic research experts in the hall for an intense discussion.
With the theme of how to deal with the flow of the volcano, the discussion continued until three in the morning. Everyone felt exhausted but still could not come up with appropriate measures!
"First, publish the data, the outside world is waiting for our news!"
After serious consideration, Yano Yamakawa chose to first truthfully report the problem currently faced by the Divine Light Country.
First is to let the people in the cities near Jingli Mountain know and evacuate as soon as possible.
Second, to issue a notification to all countries around the world, informing them they currently have no coping measures, the numerous uncertainties inside the volcano exceed their plans.
Third, if the chemical plant explodes, it will inevitably cause chemical substance leakage, and even research entities related to viruses might leak!
At five o’clock in the morning, the Divine Light Country official website published the latest news about Jingli Mountain.
Unexpectedly, despite choosing such late-night quiet hours for publication, it still triggered a fierce worldwide response!
Media around the world rushed to reprint the announcement made by the Divine Light Country!
Reporters from various live broadcasting platforms explained on the spot!
Major APPs provided commentaries, madly ranting!
Incoming comments were outright insults!
High-level officials from various countries immediately held emergency meetings!
Within half an hour after the publication, the Divine Light Country’s official website was repeatedly attacked by hackers, causing the webpage to crash and become inaccessible!
The number of comments on various discussion platforms raised billions of times!
This was when most netizens were sleeping in the early hours of the morning.
"The content of this announcement seems like a complete mess, suggesting that the Divine Light Country has no coping measures. Other countries, do as you see fit!"
"Damn, if they can’t control it, they won’t control it?"
"Is this a scam for money? Is it that if we don’t support them, they’ll go down together with us?"
"Where are the coping measures!!"
"What kind of announcement is this???"
"Unreliable! The chemical plant is going to explode, and they don’t have a solution?"
"Obviously, the Divine Light Country wants to drag the whole world down, dying together!"
"If the chemical plant explodes, their kingdom will definitely perish first!"
"Be wise, brothers, chemical substances are very terrifying! They secretly research viruses, and could create zombie viruses threatening all mankind!"
"Damn ****, what a bunch of *****, just drop a couple more bombs, don’t control the volcano, flatten it!"
"Agree with the above, this attitude is a disgrace to humanity!"
"So **** hateful, can’t control it so they mess up, **** you!"
"Seems like the flow of magma from Jingli Mountain is quite unusual!"
...
At this moment, not only were netizens cursing the mess of the Divine Light Country on various websites and APPs, but several neighboring countries of the Divine Light Country also issued stern condemnations in the early hours!
High-level officials from several major countries quickly concluded that, although the Divine Light Country’s attitude is contemptible, they all issued notifications willing to help manage the flow of the volcano!
Official notifications from several major countries followed, expressing willingness to send experts to support the Divine Light Country, hoping they would adjust their attitude accordingly.
The Divine Light Country didn’t expect that within a short hour after the announcement, they received calls from various country consulates.
This caused further headache and sleeplessness for Yano Yamakawa, making everyone present feel anxious.
Currently, their only option was to continuously dispatch exploration teams to the mountain, conducting real-time monitoring of the volcano, while also preparing to receive foreign aid.

...
On the destroyer, it was sailing towards the borders of the Great Xia Kingdom along the designated route.
A crimson sun was slowly rising from the horizon, a ray of warm sunshine breaking the endless darkness, shining through the windows into Lin Beichen’s room.
At this moment, a neat and grand singing sounded from above the compartment, the voice was loud and full of momentum.
Lin Beichen sat up from the bed, even below the third deck, he could clearly hear that it was the national anthem!
"They should be raising the flag!"
Lin Beichen rubbed his eyes, stretched to shake off his tiredness, got up, and was about to wash up when there was a knock at the door.
It was a soldier, delivering a set of navy battle dress, and informed him that Captain Guo and ten instructors were waiting.
Lin Beichen took the battle dress, washed up, and followed the soldier to the deck.
Just upon arrival, a fresh sea breeze blew on his face, lifting his sleeves and waving with the wind, Lin Beichen finally saw the full appearance of the entire destroyer!
