Super Island Tycoon

Chapter 103: Chapter 103: Enemy Attack!

In a brief moment, the entire venue boiled over like a pot of oil doused with cold water.

Jiang Cheng’s speech was undoubtedly a bombshell!

Before this, all the distinguished guests attending the banquet had anticipated that the theme of this banquet was certainly Jade Island’s attempt to mitigate the impact of the recent pirate harassment incidents.

However, they never expected Jade Island to take direct action.

And a military action at that!

What this implies is not lost on them; Jade Island already possesses its military power!

Realizing this, everyone couldn’t help but feel secretly shaken.

Previously, Jade Island had always acted on the international stage as a region without a governmental structure, acclaimed only for its pristine scenery and technological prowess.

But now, having its military force changes everything entirely!

The surrounding situation around Jade Island had always been quite sensitive, and this relatively delicate status tilted after Jade Island’s sudden emergence.

It was under such circumstances that a series of previous pirate harassment incidents occurred.

Now that Jade Island has evolved from a mere technology island into a region with its military force, it is bound to make the already tilted situation even more unstable.

All the guests present couldn’t help but feel a tinge of apprehension about what would happen next.

The reason being that although Jade Island possesses strong economic and technological strength, its military capabilities remain undeveloped.

They had never heard of Jade Island conducting any military equipment development before, so they were quite skeptical about its current military capabilities.

Nevertheless, Jiang Cheng’s words have already proven that Jade Island is going to reveal its military strength.

Realizing this, all the guests present felt a mix of complex emotions; they were anxious about the change in situation, fearing it may alter their future cooperation with Jade Island, yet held a tinge of anticipation.

After all, if Jade Island can rely on its military power to resolve hostile harassment, it would indeed be beneficial for long-term cooperation.

As the guests’ minds were filled with these turbulent thoughts, Jiang Cheng on stage did not wait idly and instead raised his hand with a wave.

Immediately afterward, a huge electronic screen slowly descended from the ceiling of the venue.

Seeing this, the crowd couldn’t help but be puzzled, not knowing what Jiang Cheng intended.

However, they didn’t wait long before noticing something unusual.

On the screen, a gigantic map of the sea first appeared, showing a solitary island. Judging by the outline, the crowd immediately realized that this must be Jade Island, where they currently are.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng on stage also began to speak.

”I am sure you all know that recently, Jade Island has been subjected to harassment by some hostile forces in the surrounding seas. According to our latest intelligence, tonight, a large fleet loaded with armed personnel will attack the east coast of Jade Island, where the Dream Paradise Resort is located, and there are currently over 400,000 tourists there.”

”Boom!”

Jiang Cheng’s words caused a renewed uproar in the venue.

Obviously, this news was even more shocking than his previous words.

An armed force is sailing toward Jade Island!

And it’s not a small scale!

Their target is directly at Jade Island’s most renowned resort!

There are over 400,000 tourists there!

With each piece of information revealed and pieced together, fear rose in everyone present.

An armed army attacking defenseless tourists?

What that would mean if it happens, everyone shuddered at the thought!

This is a blatant massacre!

Only someone tremendously cruel would commit such an act.

With this in mind, a feeling of shared resentment developed within everyone’s hearts, filled with hatred for these inhuman armed personnel.

However, now, their more pressing question is, since Jade Island has obtained such precise intelligence, what kind of countermeasures will it take?

After all, they had just heard from Jiang Cheng that this armed force is well-prepared, even bringing powerful warships, emphasizing that their goal is the devastation of Jade Island.

Putting aside the question of whether this armed force can take Jade Island, the consequences of such a massacre are something current Jade Island cannot bear.

Imagining the aftermath, Jade Island would have to bear immense pressure.

Bluntly speaking, from then on, Jade Island would fall from grace!

Who would dare to go to an unprotected island where one could be killed at will!

Thinking of these dire consequences, everyone couldn’t help but turn their gaze toward Jiang Cheng on stage.

They knew the master of Jade Island, since having this urgent intelligence, would not sit back and do nothing.

Moreover, considering what he just said when he went on stage, it proved that he must have prepared suitable countermeasures; otherwise, he wouldn’t be standing there so calmly, hosting such a banquet.

Sure enough, after delivering such shocking news, Jiang Cheng did not show the worried expression like the guests present, but instead, seemed quite composed.

Seeing the concerning gazes of the guests, Jiang Cheng smiled slightly and without much explanation, directly pressed the switch of the remote control in his hand.

Immediately, the screen image changed; the previous map of Jade Island’s sea area vanished and was replaced by a scene of the vast ocean.

Clearly, this real-time image was captured by special nocturnal cameras, allowing such clear footage even in the dark night.

You could say, except for the slightly dark lighting, it was no different from scenes shot in daylight.

Seeing this, everyone’s perception of Jade Island’s technological prowess became even more intuitive.

However, their focus was still on the footage.

The video showed a turbulent sea surface, seemingly ordinary at first glance, but soon a cry of surprise rang out in the venue.

”Look at the bottom right corner!”

With this call, everyone’s eyes turned to the bottom of the screen.

Sure enough, above the vast ocean, there was an anomaly.

A fleet of about 30 warships appeared on the screen in tight formation. Most notably, the warships bristled with turrets, and a large number of armed personnel with rifles were lined up on the decks.

The entire fleet appeared highly disciplined.

Seeing this, everyone felt a chill in their hearts!

This formidable fleet was advancing towards Jade Island!
