Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high! Chapter 1018 703: Despair

By the third morning, Councilor Ethan finally inford that Parliant would hold an unofficial internal briefing in the afternoon, inviting Kiro Lan to attend and elucidate the central stance and cooperation suggestions.

This was a progression, but far from formal negotiations.

However, just as Kiro Lan prepared to head to the Parliant building, a rapid series of alarms, akin to a plague, instantly swept across Ming Pearl Port!

The first alerts ca from the port district!

"Urgent report! Unidentified giant creatures rapidly approaching underwater beneath wharves three and seven of the port! The number...the number is nurous! They are colliding with dock bases and anchored ships!" The port managent office's communications were almost tearful.

Simultaneously, a disaster report ca from the northwest old town: "Report! A massive collapse occurred in the underground drainage system of the Rusted District with...with Bug Race units pouring out! They are Zerglings and Hydralisks! They are spreading to the surface!"

These two ssages were already horrifying enough, but adding insult to injury was the nearly synchronized appearance of Bug Race, a heart-stopping psychic howl and chaotic energy waves erupted from the Spiritual Ability Guild tower near the city center square—

Another Spiritual Ability User lost control under high-dinsional whispers and sudden crisis pressure!

As if things weren't chaotic enough, the border defense outside of the city also sent a urgent communication: "A massive Beastman War Gang appeared on the eastern coastline! They...they haven't attacked the city directly but are using so crude catapults to hurl incendiary and explosive objects into the city! They are howling chaotically along the coastline, tying up a large part of our defensive forces!"

Bug Race attack, high-dinsional erosion, Beastman harassnt...

Triple threats exploded in different forms across Ming Pearl Port at almost the sa ti!

This is absolutely no coincidence!

Kiro Lan and Morphie exchanged a glance, seeing horror in each other's eyes.

This is more serious than what they encountered in Anvil City, with more attack points and better coordination, as if an invisible hand was simultaneously plucking these deadly strings!

Councilor Ethan's face turned ashen, his previous composure vanished without a trace, voice trembling: "Wh...what's happening?! How are Bug Races coming from underwater?! And Beastn...they've never dared approach the coastline so closely before!"

Kiro Lan forced herself to calm down, knowing that any panic and bla would be futile at this mont.

"Councilor Ethan, now is not the ti to investigate the reasons! Imdiately initiate the city's highest-level ergency plan! Evacuate the port and old town residents, mobilize all defensive forces to intercept separately! Send people to control the situation at the Spiritual Ability Guild to prevent further damage from those who have lost control! The city defense force must allocate so power to suppress the Beastn on the coastline, they shouldn't interfere with city defenses!"

Her speech was rapid, with clear thinking: "The underwater threat at the port might be a new Bug Race variant, requiring heavy deep-water bombs or underwater defense nets! The Bug Race in the old town erging from underground ans imdiately blasting and sealing main sewer exits to trap them below or force them into designated extermination zones! Handling Spiritual Ability User loss of control needs professional purification teams! Beastman harassnt needs long-range firepower to disperse them and prevent their approach!"

Councilor Ethan was already sowhat at a loss, instinctively asked: "Th...then what should we do? We don't have enough manpower to handle so many simultaneously..."

Kiro Lan took a deep breath, eyes sharp: "My guard team and accompanying personnel can imdiately join the battle, assisting in defense. Morphie, take your people to the old town to assist in purging the Bug Race erging underground and focus on blocking passageways! I will bring so to the Spiritual Ability Guild to attempt controlling the loss-control incident! The underwater threat at the port and Beastn on the coast need your local navy and main city defense forces to handle! We must imdiately establish joint command, share intelligence, and coordinate actions! Otherwise, the entire city will be defeated one by one!"

In the critical mont, the decisiveness and clear response shown by Kiro Lan, like a lifeline.

Councilor Ethan no longer hesitated, repeatedly nodded: "Good! Good! I will imdiately notify the Speaker and the city defense commander! Have your people act imdiately!"

The whole Ming Pearl was instantly plunged into chaos.

The blaring alarms, the citizens' frightful cries, the rumbling of army mobilization, sounds of explosions and firefights already starting in the distance, intertwined together.

Morphie led his most elite "Dawn's Blade" team mbers, hastily heading to the old town's Rusted District.

The area was already in chaos, with Bug Races swarming out from multiple collapsed sewer openings and earth fissures, engaging in a chaotic battle with the hastily assembled city defense army and security forces.

Morphie imdiately commanded his team to join the battle while requesting city defense to gather engineering vehicles and explosives, bombing several key sewer main entrances as per Kiro Lan's strategy, limiting the Bug Race ergence points to smaller areas, then concentrating firepower for extermination.

Kiro Lan anwhile rushed with a few spiritual purification experts and guards to the Spiritual Ability Guild tower in the city center.

Even from afar, they could see the tower's high-rise windows flickering with abnormal, twisted pink-purple spiritual energy lights, occasionally spilling uncontrolled spiritual shockwaves, causing nearby buildings' glass to shatter.

At the tower entrance, so of the guild's low-level Spiritual Ability Users and guards were attempting to seal the entry but appeared at a loss.

"What's the situation inside?" Kiro Lan asked while swiftly approaching.
