1484: Chapter 1480: Ocean Catastrophe 1484: Chapter 1480: Ocean Catastrophe When the strategy was deployed, senior government officials had their own logic to judge the importance of matters, the level of attention from their superiors, and whether they should push forward with all their efforts or wait and see for some time.
Simply viewing the content of the documents and promotions wouldn’t reveal much, as the propaganda always emphasized the importance, the utmost importance, but some things couldn’t be faked.
“Look at project funding.
If the approved funds exceed the budget and have already been received, then full effort must be made.”
The project hadn’t even started yet, but the funds had already arrived, and it was a tremendously generous amount.
Any rational government official would consider it a top priority.
The generosity of superiors was never without a cost.
Direct financing also meant they were implying a need to see results quickly.
And this time, the level of “financing” from the Eastern Country was somewhat frightening.
“Is it the Sea God’s winter demise…”
The arrival of this Sea God was expected, as it was professionally relevant.
But Lu Ping’an initially thought it would be a second-tier…
The title of “Proper God” said it all.
This powerful True God Level Sea God, immediately upon arrival, attracted countless focal points of attention.
After all, among those Proper Gods of the Eastern Country, they were generally the strongest from some Divine Realm.
A Sea God able to carry the Proper God’s title was certainly among the top Deities in the country.
“The loss must be huge.”
Previously, Lu Ping’an did not understand, but now, thinking about the loss from a “disconnected link,” he felt somewhat heartbroken for this supreme Sea God.
Such loss involved not only the disconnection from the world link and the denial of one’s World’s Rule, but also affected the world’s Believers, those human anchors that couldn’t be taken along.
Senior Deities often embedded themselves into the “history” of a world, and this religious and historical recognition further shaped their Self Cognition.
To completely detach them…
even if it wasn’t starting from scratch, it was a significant blow.
This was the biggest weakness of traditional Deities, the cost of their meteoric rise…
While enjoying the “worship” from the world, they also had to bear this cost.
“All these, pathways of the ocean, sailors, even the Storm systems, all together…”
Lu Ping’an stroked his chin, with his limited “theological knowledge,” he concluded that this was not all.
Given that the “Ocean King” could potentially interfere with the entire world’s ocean, Lu Ping’an wouldn’t be surprised at all.
This veteran Deity did not directly link to the new world, not because It was rejected, but as a top-tier Deity, Its “carrying capacity” was extremely astonishing.
“A single Deity, the first batch carrying capacity exceeded a million…”
He truly could independently transport entire cities.
Now that he was free from the constraints of his original world, considering the real-world needs, naturally, it made sense for this Big Shot to make a few more trips.
And what surprised Lu Ping’an somewhat was that among the newcomers, he saw some who were not yellow-skinned…
“Some are the Red Star people, we are allies, and others are homeless victims of sea level rise.
Those from the Pacific Ocean island countries, which have good relations with us, are basically all here.”
All the friendly ones are here?
Does that mean there are also victims from relations that are very bad?
Hearing this, Lu Ping’an was silent for a moment, recalling something.
Their place is an island, right?”
The Aus Independent State, the largest island on Earth, naturally would be affected by oceanic disasters.
“One of the hardest-hit nations, part of its area swallowed by the sea, an inland sea appearing in the center of the island, and quite a bit of the coastline has also been swallowed, along with the surrounding small islands all gone…
but compared to the oceanic disasters they faced, the invasions by the Exotic Races are nothing.”
Lu Ping’an only then learned why the Aus people hadn’t sought him out for a while…
They were too busy dealing with their own problems, not just those colonial territories outside the Domain, but their homeland might nearly be doomed.
This was not just a result of rising sea levels; more crucially, they were targeted as the primary focus of the Exotic Realm Invaders’ attacks.
Originally their internal situation was already a complete mess, lacking unity and constantly embroiled in infighting, living miserably…
Being a lone island hanging overseas, who else would you attack but them?
Not only were they easy to attack, but also rich in resources, perfect for serving as a frontline base for the invaders.
“You know, over there, basically big corporations managed everything.
And some of the corporations…
mostly multinational companies, are truly nationless.
They changed a registration location, and now at least over fifty percent of the Aus corporations have become Huaqi corporations.”
Though losing their homeland was practically cutting off their roots, appearing at their doorstep would definitely invite a bite.
Still, it was better than directly dying there.
“They’ve mostly become American People.
Most are Huaqi People, but they had to a large sum of money first…
Due to the influx of low-level labor, their labor costs have lowered.”
This was an expected circumstance.
In regards to exploiting people and making money, some nations specialized in it.
With this precedent, once Lu Ping’an saw individuals with darker skin among the disaster victims, he completely understood.
“From the Southeastern Archipelago?”
“The Archipelago Alliance itself was not greatly affected, just that too many people fled…
With the tragic situation of Aus as the example, many have been quite rational.
Heh, among this batch, there are quite a few Sakura Islanders too.”
Oh, the island country on the eastern side of the continent.
Considering the current state of the Aus Island Country, that island nation which has been portrayed in TV dramas as disaster-prone through the ages, being heavily hit seemed only natural…
They simply moved the TV drama scenarios of “Giant Beasts on the streets”, “Sakura Island sinking”, “volcanic eruptions” into reality.
Actually, Sakura Island was not weak, but they had a large population, and the chain panic caused by some regions being swallowed by the ocean…
They hadn’t completely collapsed, but in some areas, they had totally lost control.
“Some areas declared independence…
it really wasn’t our doing.
Who would want a detached territory that would soon plunge into the ocean?
Among those who came, some were disaster victims, and some were Avengers.
Keep a closer watch on them.”
Sakura Island was also one of the participating countries in the Nirvana Plan, being an allied country in this era, they would naturally receive some support…
Since some people were willingly coming to cultivate and serve as losers, it was really hard to find a reason to refuse them.
Lu Ping’an realized that even though Eastern Country was supposed to have recruited with all its might, if they could survive well locally, many wouldn’t choose to develop in the Foreign Domain.
Among the first batch of migrants, there were inevitably many disaster victims…
and on the side of Eastern Country, there were more military warriors.
Observing these disaster victims and wandering warriors, Lu Ping’an, far in the Otherworld, for the first time felt the imminent approach of the World Apocalypse.
