After eating and drinking to his fill.

Zhang Jie was surprised again to see several tree roots hanging down from the ceiling, and a television appeared out of thin air.

His face twitched several times.

WTF!

Superpower Users from other countries are roughing it outdoors, yet only the Great xia People are vacationing here.

Can you guys be even more outrageous?

Old Lu turned his head towards Zhang Jie and explained, "In half an hour, Carmenia Federation will have a press conference related to the Arctic Icefield, and we plan to watch it."

When Zhang Jie heard the word "Carmenians," his expression turned unpleasant.

The previous expedition team was ambushed by the Carmenians, and nearly the entire team was wiped out, which he could never forget.

Old Lu thought for a moment and tentatively asked, "Would you be willing to accept an interview and share your story?"

Zhang Jie nodded solemnly, "I very much want to!"

Revealing the ugly truth of the Carmenians to all the people of Canglan Star was something he dreamed of doing.

Old Lu smiled and said, "The interview will be played during Carmenia's press conference, to thoroughly disgust the Carmenians."

Zhang Jie smiled, "I like this arrangement."

Soon.

The interview began.

Zhang Jie said with a face full of anger and indignation, "In order to show goodwill, Captain Arnold proactively greeted the Carmenians, but he was the first to be killed by them..."

He recounted the experiences of the Dakot Expedition Team in detail.

Old Lu remarked at the right time, "I can assure you that the Dakot Expedition Team is not the first victim; there must be other Superpower Users who have fallen into the Carmenians' hands."

Zhang Jie nodded repeatedly, "I think so too."

Old Lu revealed a secret, "According to the information we've gathered, the Carmenia Federation has developed a kind of Modified Weapon.

"They transform Superpower Users into controllable monsters, giving them more formidable combat power. The brain of the transformed will be ruined, causing a complete loss of sanity.

"Apart from this, the lifespan of the transformed will be drastically reduced, for example from a potential lifespan of 150 years pre-transformation to at most 5 years post-transformation.

"The most horrifying part is that the transformation process is extremely brutal and bloody. The transformed will undergo unimaginable pain, and many have not survived this stage and perished during the transformation."

Zhang Jie's face changed as he listened, "So you're saying Captain Arnold may not be dead but captured for transformation?"

Recalling carefully, the man had an epiphany, "I indeed didn't see Captain Arnold's body, just heard the screams.

"I was wondering at the time why Prince Carmenia Gulite didn't kill me when he had the chance.

"Now it seems Gulite surely wanted to exhaust my strength, then capture me for transformation once I was weak enough."

Old Lu affirmed this judgment, "Exactly! That's the case!"

He continued eloquently, "The Arctic Icefield is a hazardous region, filled with numerous bizarre monsters.

"Those captured for transformation would just be thought to have been slain by monsters, allowing the Carmenians to act without restraint.

"If I'm not mistaken, the Carmenians would certainly deploy their Modified Weapons to delve into the crevices, searching for Ice Fish.

"Through such methods, the Carmenians can on one hand obtain more Ice Fish, while on the other hand greatly reduce their personnel losses."

Old Lu concluded, "So the Carmenians have ample motive for doing this."

Zhang Jie cursed fiercely, "Fxxk! Carmenia Federation is the most evil country in the world!"

Old Lu smiled and said, "The founders of Carmenia Federation were originally a bunch of exiled criminals."

Zhang Jie wholeheartedly agreed, "Yes, all the Carmenians are descendants of criminals; it is a nation full of sin."

He spoke earnestly, "I will never forget that when I was in utter despair, it was the Great xia People who saved my life. Eastern Great Xia is the true beacon of justice for humanity."

Old Lu felt a peculiar emotion upon hearing this.

Ten years ago, the internet in Great Xia spouted everywhere that "Carmenia Federation is humanity's beacon of justice."

Now, hearing a white man say "Great Xia is the true beacon of justice," a thought of "thirty years on the east bank of the river, thirty years on the west bank" welled up in his heart.

Zhang Jie continued, "The reason I shared the tragic fate of the Dakot Expedition Team is to inform all Superpower Users on the Arctic Icefield that you'd better stay away from the Carmenians, or you'll end up a monster like Captain Arnold."

Old Lu inserted a remark, "The Great Xia Expedition Team conducted some investigations. We anticipate that there might be changes in the Arctic Icefield in the near future. We suggest everyone evacuate the Arctic Region as soon as possible to prevent unnecessary casualties."

Zhang Jie curiously asked, "What kind of change?"

Old Lu shook his head, "We don't know either. We only observed some ominous signs through Secret Techniques. The specific information is confidential, and I cannot disclose it."

Zhang Jie shrugged, not taking it to heart.

After all, the words were vague, and not many Superpower Users would abandon searching for Ice Fish based solely on what Great xia People said.

At this moment.

A Superpower User nearby said, "That should be enough, let's record up to here."

Old Lu nodded, "Edit the video and let the Jiuzhou Legion's publicity department release it."

*

Half an hour later.

Carmenia Federation.

Azure Palace.

Night had fallen over this land, but Azure Palace was brightly lit.

A meticulously prepared press conference was underway.

"...The Federation's Arctic Expedition has achieved extremely bountiful results in the past few days."

Spokesperson Hamilton introduced the achievements of the Federation's Expedition Team in the Arctic Icefield with great excitement.

"Click! Click!"

A large number of reporters raised their cameras continuously shooting, while flashbulbs flickered at a high frequency.

In fact.

The Carmenia Federation's actions were naturally aimed at competing with Eastern Great Xia.

During the last Eastern Science incident, the Federation's rescue teams were utterly defeated, resulting in significant global embarrassment.

This time, the Federation intended to seize the opportunity to regain its footing and further prove to the international community that the Federation remains a powerful player in the Supernatural Domain.

Hamilton's tone suddenly rose sharply: "I can tell everyone an exciting figure.

"By 8 o'clock tonight, the brave Federation expedition team, having gone through countless dangers, has accumulated 1,182 ice fish from the icefield..."

The news hall instantly buzzed.

Anyone slightly familiar knows this is a very large number.

Many nations' expedition teams sent over have been busy in the icy snow for several days, with some people even lost, and only discovered a dozen ice fish.

In comparison, the Federation actually obtained more than four digits worth of ice fish, which can simply be described as phenomenal.

Hamilton observed the surprised faces and couldn't help but show a smile.

The Federation is still the strong Federation!

Every Canglan Star People must remember this!

Hamilton cleared his throat and continued: "All ice fish acquired before yesterday have been delivered to us, now we will show you the Federation's spoils!"

As soon as the words were spoken.

A nearby door opened.

A team of superpower users dressed in black uniforms, each tall and grand, giving a strong sense of pressure, pushed two cabinets over.

Each cabinet had wheels underneath, stood over two meters high, covered with a thick black cloth.

All reporters' gazes gathered there.

"Snap!"

Hamilton clapped his hands.

Two superpower users immediately lifted the black cloth.

The entire hall instantly erupted.

Only to see rows of crystal-clear ice fish neatly displayed in the cabinets, instantly catching everyone's eyes.

Hamilton's tone became high again: "Ladies and gentlemen, here are 915 ice fish placed here, this news hall is absolutely the place with the most ice fish in the world right now."

He paused for a moment and continued: "I know many people might compare the Federation with Eastern Great Xia.

"I can clearly tell you that Eastern Great Xia only sent an expedition team of 50 people, they absolutely couldn't have harvested this many ice fish."

Many reporters nodded repeatedly.

They believed these words.

After all, Carmenia Federation sent a large team totaling 1,500 people, how could their ice fish yield be less than Great Xia's?

Hamilton smiled: "Everyone, please witness the magic of Cold Abyss Ice Fish next."

Two superpower users performed another action.

In the next moment.

The ice fish, initially motionless, suddenly floated up and came alive like real fish, swaying their heads and tails.

Nearly a thousand ice fish swam together, looking quite spectacular.

"Oh my!"

"So magical!"

A large number of exclamations followed.

"Snap! Snap!"

The sound of shooting grew denser.

Hamilton watched this scene, filled with pride.

Just then.

A slight commotion suddenly appeared in a corner of the hall.

Some reporters were looking down at their phones, whispering to each other, their expressions a bit odd.

Clearly.

The reporters had discovered something.

Hamilton frowned and nodded to a subordinate beside him, saying in a low voice: "Go find out what's going on."

The subordinate softly agreed and turned to leave.

After a dozen seconds.

The subordinate returned and quickly explained the situation: "Great Xia released a video..."

Hamilton's face changed upon hearing that.

He knocked on the podium twice.

The hall immediately quieted down.

Hamilton loudly said: "I know some have watched the video released by Great Xia, I must declare, this is an extremely shameless slander.

"Great xia People lagged behind in the Arctic Icefield competition, that's why they resorted to such lowly methods to smear the Federation."

As he spoke, he carefully observed the reporters' reactions.

Hamilton clearly saw that many reporters' expressions were somewhat strange, seemingly not believing his explanation.

Actually, he understood the reason.

The Federation indeed privately engages in dirty deeds, which common people might not know.

Most reporters have sufficient sources, how could they not be aware?

This act of attacking another country's superpower users was something even he thought the Federation was indeed capable of doing.

Moreover, the Federation's superpower user Ice Prince was highly likely to have fallen into Great xia People's hands, which is the best evidence.

"Buzz~"

The crowd's discussions grew louder.

Realizing things were not good, Hamilton hurriedly said: "Ladies and gentlemen, this press conference is now concluded."

Originally, he planned to introduce the Federation's intention to use the ice fish to create an Ice and Snow Legion, showcasing the Federation's ambition and aspirations.

But Great xia People suddenly intervened and disrupted, forcing him to cut the press event short.
