Chapter 507: Kais Message (2/2)
On the way, Marsha told everything to the current prime minister, so he could prepare himself for a press conference later.
”Milady, I am afraid this situation is worse than we expected… If Kai Carter can't even pull it off, do you think someone can do it?”
”I am not sure myself, but Arnaud told me there is a chance. Everything will be resolved within thirty minutes. I want you to prepare for a press conference right after regarding this matter.” Marsha shook her head while trying to figure out Kai's plan.
What they feared was the fact that Kai, the strongest human that might have the power to destroy a base, was actually useless against this opponent. In other words, his opponent might have the power to destroy the base after killing Kai Carter and the other Rank S Magicians.
”Hmm… It seems Kai Carter has thought it through.” Marsha mumbled as she had started connecting the dots in Kai's message.
”What is it, Milady?”
”From the first point, he already stated that the monster is stronger than him. This means if humanity doesn't unite, a monster like this will make us extinct. After all, there are a few more people like this coming from the sea. And yes, we may need to officially tell the public about this threat.”
”I see. He once told us about the great war… Doesn't this mean it will come soon?”
”Yes. With him asking for the world to unite, this war he talked about may be bigger than he expected. After all, even he pondered for a long time when I asked about our role in the battle. He had some level of confidence in dealing with them…”
”In that case, we may need to start working in the military to prepare for the war. Oliver will be exterminated after this incident, so there won't be anyone that will obstruct us. If we work together with Kai Carter, it should be able to work out. The problem will be United Asia. One of the biggest powers in United Asia is the Katsuragi Family, who has some conflicts with him.”
”Don't talk about United Asia right now. It's not important. Everything will be useless if we lose this battle.” Marsha shook her head.
”Then, what is the second one?”
Marsha fell silent for a moment before continuing, ”The second one is obviously to get the world's attention. I'm sure he is going to do something big in front of the world and tell them we need to join hands. Though, I am not sure about the several minutes thing. I'm sure he has some plans.”
”Agreed. That's why I'm going to make a statement about the collaboration, right? We can use that to extend the contract for war cooperation. Of course, the US Base President will surely respond to this since he knows Kai Carter has never done something meaningless.”
”Yes. His side also has Ria Ross, so we are going to get busy for months if not years.” Marsha nodded with a serious expression. ”As for the third… He can't tell anything about the time limit, but he wants the media to retreat…”
”Do you know anything about this? I can't see a single clue of what he thinks.”
”I am not sure myself. Seeing he has confidence that everything will be solved within thirty minutes, I will just believe in him. We can talk about it later anyway.” Marsha shrugged. ”I have sent the media on their way, so they will arrive within five to ten minutes. This is getting complicated very soon… I wonder how Oliver has such a creature backing him up.”
…
While they were talking about the countermeasure, Kai had been fighting against Kerza for several minutes. Within that time, Kai suffered some injuries. Blood was dripping out of his wounds and his movement became a bit slower. If not for his Sound Blast, he couldn't catch up with Kerza's speed.
The same applied to Arnaud, Jules, Sofia, and Roselyn. All of them fought against Kerza and managed to fight at a standstill, but their condition gradually turned worse.
Kerza also used a lot of his stamina, but he should have enough stamina to kill them before getting away to recover.
”This is useless. You won't be able to defeat me. Thirty minutes, is it? I'm going to prove that I can kill all of you within that time.” Kerza snorted.
Kai smiled and ignored his word, raising his vision and finding a helicopter coming closer. The helicopter brought a giant flashlight as it illuminated Kerza, the main culprit.
Seeing the reinforcement he hoped for had come, Kai shouted. ”No need to hold back. Use all your power right now. Don't care about our surroundings.”
