My Fierce Tigress Wife Chapter 188 - Water Flooded the Land

Chapter 188: Water Flooded the Land

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
A wave more than a hundred meters tall suddenly rose up from the ocean, breaking the despair and silence that threatened to swallow everything.
Growl!
The sounds coming from the silhouette projections of the faint golden dragons became louder.
The hundred-meter wave propelled forward, pushing another wave that was as tall as 200 meters.
The 200-meter wave, once again, in the span of a breath, propelled another wave that was a few hundred meters tall.
The deafening sounds of the crashing waves blasted in the skies.
One wave propelled the next wave, each of them taller than the previous one.
The silence of the ocean was completely shattered.
From a silence that threatened to swallow everything, it turned into a vengeance to destroy everything.
In slightly more than a minute, a few-thousand-meter-tall wave crashed towards the South Korean coasts.
The indomitable strength that was powerful enough to move the mountains and overturn the seas fell upon the Earth at this moment.
It was also at this point that the leaders of the various countries were struck with terror, and they stood up frantically.
“What are the marine species troops doing?” In China, Li Aimin’s brows were furrowed together as he asked.
“Secretariat, quickly figure out what they are planning to do!” Dong Pingtao quickly issued an order. Meanwhile, he already had a guess in his mind.
However, it was a guess that neither he nor anyone wished to see.
“F*ck!”
Te Bajing, who was in India, silently cursed under his breath.
In Russia, Bay’s fist was tightly clenched.
In the capital of South Korea…
Park Gookchang and the senior officials stared at the scene shell-shocked and feeling full of despair.
In the Japan Alliance, US Alliance…
Regardless of what these senior officials thought, they could only look aghast at the earth-shattering wave being pushed to the coast in the blink of an eye.
It was like a few-thousand-meter-tall giant who traveled across the ocean, reached the coast, and still continued to dash forward into the distance; threatening to engulf everything in sight.
Eventually, the giant traveled across dozens of meters and finally crashed down on the ground.
Bang!
The earth and the skies were silenced when the few-thousand-meter tall wave landed on the coast.
It was like a huge mountain that was smashed violently on the ground.
Everything in sight—the high-rise buildings, asphalt roads… everything shattered into pieces like fragile glass under the prowess of the ocean. Everything was ruined.
The senior officials of the 12 alliances may all be extraordinary people who control the events of the world, but all of their faces could not help but turn as white as a ghost now.
The indomitable power was simply too spine-chilling.
They did not have a high level of combat powers in the first place, which contributed even more to the feeling of being helpless.
Meanwhile, the scene they just saw was just the beginning.
The waves grew even more turbulent, and violent growls were continuously sounded from the ocean. The lightning in the sky grew thicker and thicker, more and more frequent.
The entire sea level seemed to be rising as one few-thousand-meter-tall wave after another was propelled forward. Each engulfed and destroyed everything.
The senior officials of South Korea looked at the waves, horror-stricken and unable to blink.
They seemed to be seeing images of the collapse of South Korea and numerous corpses of its citizens lying all over.
None of the senior officials from other alliances were able to keep their composure.
“What on earth are they doing?” The leader of the Japan Alliance gulped as his hands trembled. In his mind, he already had a guess.
A guess that he was unwilling to voice out.
Te Bajing, Bay, and other leaders also had similar guesses.
However, none of them were willing to voice it either.
In the capital of China…
Dong Pingtao and the other men looked aghast at the waves that continuously moved forward to engulf everything.
What are they doing?
“Leader, the secretariat has some speculations,” a middle-aged man said to Dong Pingtao.
Dong Pingtao signaled by looking at him, and the middle-aged man continued to say solemnly, “The opponent might be planning to swallow the entire South Korea with waves.”
The eyebrows of the cabinet elders twitched aggressively after they heard the report.
They didn’t want to believe that their guesses were true.
“What incredible marine species troops,” Zhang Jianye sighed as he said. He couldn’t hide his grimness as in his voice.
“They won’t fight us head-on… but use the ocean to swallow everything. What a formidable idea. They must have learned the lesson from the previous nuclear weapon attack.” Li Aimin regretted that they did not manage to kill that golden dragon the last time.
This was the outcome they had to bear for not killing their opponent in the first place.
“If they can manage to submerge the entire South Korea, then I’m afraid they can also submerge all of China, if not, at least more than half of China. We cannot allow this to happen,” one of the elders said.
All the elders nodded. This was also the primary reason why they refused to think about that possibility.
“Instruct the secretariat to immediately come up with the best solution if the opponent was really strong enough to submerge the whole of South Korea,” Dong Pingtao instructed.
“Yes.”
All the elders turned silent. As they looked at the boundless waves continuing to make their move forward, they tried to come up with solutions, as well as await the outcome.
All the senior officials of the different alliances obtained the same conclusion and did the same thing.
All of them looked grave because they knew that if the marine species troops could submerge the whole of South Korea, then they could submerge the other alliances as well.
This was their first time encountering such an opponent. They even felt a sense of helplessness.
The nuclear weapons that they have always relied on seem to be useless at this moment.
Their opponents refused to fight them head-on and were dispersed in the ocean. The dark clouds and lightning also influenced the lock-on function of the missile.
The effectiveness of nuclear weapons was reduced to its lowest, which made all of them feel insecure.
Only the South Korean senior officials were feeling some sense of hope of being engulfed by despair.
“Wait—the marine species troops are not fighting the alliances head-on, and the nuclear weapons could not be used as well.
“Leader, we should contact the alliances again and restart the discussion on how to deal with the marine species troops.”
One of the men suddenly spoke, which brought Park Gookchang and the rest back to their senses.
Hope appeared on their faces.
“Yes, yes, yes. The marine species troops chose this method… if they could submerge our South Korea, they could also submerge the other alliances.
“This is a matter that not only concerns South Korea anymore. The whole of humanity must come up with solutions to resolve this problem,” Park Gookchang muttered to himself, feeling agitated.
He immediately ordered, “Contact all the alliances right now on my behalf.”
“Yes.”
After a few minutes, the 12 alliances conference commenced again.
Park Gookchang’s determined voice sounded. The point of the message was that this was no longer a matter that concerned only South Korea.
After submerging South Korea, the target of the marine species troops would be the other human alliances, and nuclear weapons were also useless in this case.
Now, the whole of humanity must work together to come up with ways to fight against the marine species troops.
As he finished, apart from a few who appeared affected, most people remained expressionless.
Park Gookchang was perplexed, and he looked at all the leaders. Te Bajing sighed to himself, and said, “Leader Park is right. The opponent refuses to land on shore, and the nuclear weapons are rendered ineffective. It’s time we should be united to fight against them now.”
It was silent again for a few seconds, and the leader of Japan said, “Mr. Te Bajing, the priority now is to see how strong the opponent can manipulate the ocean.
“More importantly, even if we don’t use nuclear weapons, we should also wait till the opponents are more and more exhausted before we fight head-on against them.”
After he finished, out of the 12 leaders, some of them had a change of expressions, while most of them remained expressionless, appearing to have thought of this a long time ago.
Park Gookchang’s body swayed, and he looked at the Japanese leader in disbelief. The gaze returned to him was laced with endless frostiness beneath the calmness.
He turned to look at the others, and all of them seemed to be looking with the same frostiness—including Te Bajing—who was struggling to say something.
Park Gookchang laughed at himself in a self-deprecating manner. He knew that it was no use to fight for it anymore.
South Korea was over.
Wait to see how strong the opponent can manipulate the ocean?
Of course, South Korea would be the site of the experiment.
Wait until the opponents were more and more exhausted before fighting them? Of course, after the marine species troops engulfed the whole of South Korea would be when they exhausted most of their power.
Two very simple reasons were all it needed to sacrifice the 600 million people of South Korea.
Simply because the marine species troops were too formidable.
They needed to find out the strength of the opponent as soon as possible, as well as to exhaust their power.
The alliances did not discuss among themselves beforehand, but once the meeting commenced—except for a minority—most of them unanimously and tacitly agreed on all of this.
They did not hesitate for the sake of their own countries.
“Leader Park, based on how fast the ocean is swallowing the land, it will take at most two days to engulf the entire South Korea.
“India is willing to welcome South Korean citizens with everything we can,” Te Bajing sighed and said sincerely.
“Japan is also willing,” the leader of Japan said.
The leaders of the other alliances, including Dong Pingtao, voiced their support one after another.
Park Gookchang laughed a couple more times again. He tried his best to control his urge to yell and shout. Instead, he calmly said, “Thanks.”
Afterward, he ended the video meeting.
The leaders of the other alliances were unaffected.
The Japanese leader who appeared to be most anxious about the prowess of the marine species troops immediately said, “Our priority now should be finding out the strength of their manipulation ability.
“And to exhaust their power.
“However, to be safe, I suggest that we should contact the Tiger King and be prepared to ask him for help anytime.
“After all, after South Korea, what followed next would be his territory.”
The other alliances were aware that China handed over a third of North Korea’s land to the Tiger King even though it was not publicly announced.
The other leaders voiced their agreement unanimously. They were uncertain of how strong the marine species were, but they knew it would be extremely strong.
Without the help of the Tiger King, they truly lacked the confidence to fight the marine species head-on when the effectiveness of the nuclear weapons was weakened drastically.
Afterward, all of them looked at Dong Pingtao.
Dong Pingtao nodded and said seriously, “Then, everyone, let’s discuss our sincerity.”
The sentence was said with justification.
The matter seemed to only concern China and Japan and did not concern India or the other countries, just as it was the case with South Korea.
However, China was not South Korea. China was blatant in pulling down the whole of humanity to face the matter together.
They could afford to do this because they were powerful.
However, South Korea was weak, so weak that they didn’t even have nuclear weapons and were given up by the other alliances so easily.
On the other hand, none of the parties in the alliances could bring themselves to say that they want to give up on China.
Hence, even though the other leaders were feeling a little disgruntled, they fully cooperated by discussing everyone’s ‘sincerity’.
They put on a facade and showed that all humans should band together.
Meanwhile, as they discussed, the South Korean senior officials completely lost all hope.
Dead silence filled the room.
After a while, Park Gookchang—who was feeling lifeless—said, “Arrange the evacuation of citizens.”
“Leader, where should they evacuate to?” One of the senior officials said in despair.
“North Korea and the various alliances.” Park Gookchang closed his eyes.
“Leader, will South Korea really be gone?” One of them could no longer hold back their tears.
…
At the same time, as the waters continued to push forward relentlessly and flooded another section of South Korea’s land, the news was finally spread to the public.
Needless to say, almost all the citizens of South Korea were frantically trying to escape.
However, one city after another was submerged by the waters along with the people who were too slow to escape.
The snide remarks on the Internet of the different alliances were reduced, and it was replaced by many comments expressing the user’s fear and anxiety.
As more and more information was made known to the public, they knew that the South Korea Alliance was really over.
It was hard to think about how many out of the few-hundred-million population would perish.
Or to put it another way, one wondered how many of them would survive.
In the Tiger King’s Cave…
Wang Hu and Di Baijun saw the news as well.
“Manipulating the ocean to submerge land… a tactic commonly used by the worms,” Di Baijun said with contempt.
Wang Hu was not surprised as well. Never treat one’s opponents as fools. Since they had such a great tactic, they would definitely use it instead of fighting head-on with the humans.
With his brows furrowed, he said, “Seems like we can’t escape from the matter this time.”
After South Korea, it would be North Korea and his territory.
The three were connected.
“Baijun, how much land do you think the worms can manipulate into submerging?”
Di Baijun thought for a moment and said seriously, “The creepy crawlies were indeed gifted in the waters. Although their bloodline was not pure, the number of the marine species troops was large.
“They should be able to manipulate the waters of the ocean to submerge the entire South Korea and North Korea.
“If they have enough time, they should be able to submerge more than half of China as well.”
Wang Hu was surprised. The prowess of the marine species troops was really quite strong.
He thought for a moment and said, “The effectiveness of nuclear weapons would be limited if these marine species troops do not appear. None of the alliances would be spared.
“Dong Pingtao should be calling anytime soon.”
“Then, are we fighting?” Di Baijun asked with uncertainty.
“Definitely, but not so easily. Let’s wait for them to express their sincerity,” Wang Hu said firmly.
Di Baijun had no opinion.
The couple was in no hurry. They put down the phone and continued to cultivate.
The spiritual energy density of China had reached the tenth stage of the Third Realm, and it was close to the peak.
It was about the same as the spiritual energy density of the Lichi World. Additionally, Earth was going through a period of upheaval.
Hence, they remained on Earth in the Tiger King’s Cave to cultivate.
No matter what, they had a large amount of spirit stones, so the slight difference in spiritual energy density between the two worlds was insignificant.
Very quickly, an hour passed.
Dong Pingtao called, and they conversed for a few minutes.
The call was straightforward, and they quickly struck a deal.
Wang Hu was quite satisfied with the sincerity that the human countries expressed. They agreed that he would lead a group of Third Realms from the different countries in battling it out with the marine species troops.
The detailed plan was still being prepared, and they required slightly more time to gather all the manpower.
They agreed on a timing to launch the resistance. The latest they would fight would be when South Korea was fully submerged.
After ending the call, Wang Hu smiled subtly.
Seemed like South Korea was really sacrificed.
How decisive.
