Chapter 7717
After Barlin left, he headed straight to Ushuaia and reached the Antarctic with help from Consul Cicero of the Left Military Governorate.Fleur wasn't all that surprised when told—she was the one who told the three high elders to go search for whatever they could to advance their cultivation, and none of them were aware beforehand if the South Pole offered such opportunities.Fleur was herself going for the unexpected. Otherwise, if they kept doing what she told them to do, they were never going to discover anything new.Even so, never could she have expected that Barlin's trip to the South Pole proved so eventful!At the moment, she still didn't know what was really happening there. The only information she had came from the news reports, which said that American forces had landed overnight with weapons and equipment and had even taken action against the Japanese research crew. Worst of all, she couldn't contact Barlin or know for sure if it was the geezer's fault, which made h

There was no question that the JMOD minister and the minister of the Japanese Ministry of Science and Cultural Development were both angry at the Americans, but that meant nothing.Against the Americans and their unreasonable demands, they didn't even have the balls to argue. After all, this whole mess wasn't the Americans' responsibility alone. The scandal was a result of military intervention for Japan's rogue research crew, and Japan couldn't claim innocence.It was just that neither side could agree on how much responsibility either side was taking.For Japan, it felt like two drivers ending up in a car crash because neither followed the rules, so responsibility had to be shared. And they could bear with their researchers being put through advanced interrogation... if it was kept under wraps. But that cat's out of the bag now, so what would they tell their own people?Mustering his courage, the minister of the Japanese Ministry of Science and Cultural Development spoke, "Mr.

The agreement in the room was unanimous, so the press secretary continued, "I'll reach the Oval Office in fifteen. Notify every reporter stationed in Washington and have them at the White House press briefing room within the hour. We'll use the extra forty-five minutes to come up with the best possible explanation for the actions exposed in that video.""Yes, ma'am!" Seeing how composed and clear-headed she remained under pressure, everyone seemed to find a sense of direction and confidence.The press secretary then added, "Also call SecDef to come over in twenty—we need to be on the level in the details, including their next steps, whether it's a full withdrawal or remaining at the south pole."And tell him to call the Japanese—the blame will go to them. Whether it's the research station's supervisory agency, the defense establishment, or even the cabinet itself, don't give them any room to refuse." -While the White House made calls, the military was feeling a migraine.They

As the press secretary rushed to the White House, the news of American military presence in Antarctica and subjecting the Japanese to advanced interrogation had made headlines across the world.Naturally, global interest skyrocketed because it was such a sensational scandal.It was not like the US never got rough, and they were definitely caught red-handed doing worse things than what they did to the Japanese researchers. It was why Guantanamo Bay remained ever infamous, but none of those incidents seized global attention like this one.The main reason is that the situation is simply strange, when Japan-American ties were stronger than even British-American relations, so it really left one baffled that the American military was suddenly caught giving some Japanese a whooping.In addition, America's military presence in the Antarctic meant its warmongering reached even the last place untouched by war. One might even say that the moment they landed, their iron fist had covered the wh

The press secretary sprang out of bed after getting the call, screaming hysterically, "What?! The Antarctic deployment somehow made the internet?! How the hell did the military commit such a rookie mistake?!"Her outburst jolted her thirtyish husband awake, and he sat up and asked, "What's wrong, babe? You scared me."The press secretary smiled apologetically, "Sorry, emergency. I need to take this—stay in bed, babe."With that, she hurried out of her bedroom with her phone, snapping angrily, "What I want to know is how evidence of a covert operation ended up on the internet!"Her assistant sighed on the other end. "I've made inquiries, while the NSA and CIA also tried to track down the original uploader, but whoever did it covered their tracks well. Everything from the server to the IP address was untraceable, and the base crew can't even tell who recorded those videos and photos."Pacing around anxiously, the press secretary groaned, "Those incompetent losers! Get everyone to t
Chapter 7712
Naturally, the title led most popular Japanese influencers to presume it was a prank.The Americans, sending their army to the South Pole? Taking over the Showa research base and torturing their research crew?Was that even possible, when Japan-US relations were stronger than a lot of other alliances between countries?Moreover, Japan had always deferred to US leadership with humility, and big-brother worshiped to the point that they commemorate Matthew Perry, who invaded their own country and forced them to open their borders. With such elements in mind, why would the Americans be motivated to harm some research crew in the Antarctic?Still, doubts aside, curiosity drove them to click into the media files.Some immediately thought it would have been better if they hadn't, as what they saw shocked them to the core: fully-armed Navy SEALS, standing outside Showa research base, forcing the Japanese research crew to stand outside in the winter cold, wearing nothing but their underpan
