Chapter 512: Chapter 315 The Meteor Shining in the World_2

However, when they contacted Lighthouse Country through diplomatic channels, they unexpectedly encountered a cold reception.

Though the gravity of the situation was explained, the government of Lighthouse Country did not provide a positive response and even hinted at a refusal to assist, openly and covertly.

In fact, Lighthouse Country was already aware of Chen Yun’s existence and realized that this was not an ordinary meteor but some special entity; they dared not offend this person.

But this information had not been disclosed to Japan, causing them confusion and anger toward Lighthouse Country’s attitude.

Yet no matter how angry they were,

a son does not dare to question his father.

Faced with the sudden crisis and the indifferent attitude of their ally, the local government fell into deep concern.

They had no choice but to consider other possible solutions while continuing to attempt communication with Lighthouse Country, hoping to find a way to resolve the issue.

At this very moment, the entire city was enveloped in an atmosphere of the unknown and unease.

But most people were unaware of this.

Whether they were aware or not didn’t matter, because Chen Yun’s descent was very fast.

...

Meanwhile,

the local branch of the Black Tide Alliance was situated on the outskirts of the city in a concealed location, surrounded by dense forests and vast open spaces, making it a relatively perfect secret base.

The building was ingeniously designed to blend into the surrounding natural environment and was almost indistinguishable from afar, difficult to detect by others.

The interior of the branch was spacious and luxurious, with modern offices, meeting rooms, and various entertainment facilities. Most noticeable was the open-air swimming pool on the top floor, which not only boasted an excellent view but also overlooked the entire city’s night scene.

Next to the pool were assorted high-end cocktails and gourmet food for the party-goers to enjoy. There was even a small stage set in the center of the pool for performance guests.

This night, like any other, the higher-ups of the Black Tide Alliance branch were gathered at the rooftop pool, indulging in a luxurious party.

They wore stylish swimwear or casual clothes, sipping champagne by the poolside, exchanging the latest business developments and private conversations.

When the party was in full swing, someone first noticed a bright light in the night sky.

There were a few exclamations at the party.

A part of the crowd then looked up curiously for a while.

But they soon lost interest and looked away.

And Kamayama Youji, the Japan branch leader in the rooftop pool, had originally glanced at the meteor for a moment before planning to look away.

However, his sharp observation skills caught onto an issue.

This meteor...

Was there something not quite right about it?

Kamayama Youji felt the meteor becoming closer and brighter,

as if it was rapidly approaching?

Musing,

a sense of wrongness compelled Kamayama Youji to stand up,

letting droplets fall from his body.

He, clad only in his swimming trunks, nonchalantly pushed away the two beauties clinging to him

and strode towards his clothes not far away. He was about to make a call on his phone when it suddenly rang.

It was from the Space Monitoring Department.

Kamayama Youji had gotten that number when he had previously provided favors involving women to a high-ranking official there.

Thinking of this,

he glanced at the troubling meteor above.

And suddenly realized there might be a reason for this call.

He hurriedly answered.

Immediately, a chorus of panicked and overlapping shouts and chaotic background noise transmitted from the other end.

Before he could speak, the official on the line urgently blurted out.

"Now, immediately, get out of there!!!"

"A meteor whose mass has not been reduced by burning is accelerating towards you. It looks like a Space-based Weapon, and it’s estimated to reach your face in about ten seconds."

After speaking,

as if something urgent had come up, the call abruptly ended.

Kamayama Youji managed to hear the official on the other end grumble before hanging up: "Those Lighthouse folks are unreliable when it really counts."

Then there was just a busy tone.

And at that moment, Kamayama Youji fell silent.

First, he numbly looked up at the increasingly bright meteor in the sky.

Then he stood there somewhat dazed.

The meteor was about to smash into his face?

Why hadn’t this been mentioned earlier?

He had already noticed something amiss, so why had the Space Monitoring Department, those who did nothing, only called now?

Kamayama Youji couldn’t help but complain inwardly.

Of course,

what he didn’t know was that the meteor was absurdly fast, leaving the Space Monitoring Department with as little time as possible from discovery to confirmation to calling for help, and then to calling him.

The meteor’s speed was fast enough

to cross the atmosphere and reach the ground in thirty seconds.

The actions of the Space Monitoring Department were already as fast as possible.

Being notified with just over ten seconds to spare,

at this time, the majority of people in the city had only just clearly seen the meteor appearing in the sky with flames and unwittingly made their wishes.

Kamayama Youji was only stunned for a moment.

He immediately made an emergency call to a phone he never used, one meant only for receiving urgent ringing notifications

while running towards a not-so-distant location.

Kamayama Youji called the spare phone of his personal pilot; a call to this phone meant the pilot had to immediately pick up Kamayama Youji.

As the boss of Japan’s Black Tide Alliance, he was extremely fond of life.
