Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

While Kazdel was attracting tourists from all over the world to participate in grand cultural exchange activities, at the southernmost tip of Terra, the continental shelf extended to the depths of the deep and mysterious ocean.

The underwater city built by Agor relies on a canopy system to isolate the heavy seawater. The light array illuminates the surrounding cold and dark waters, attracting a large number of phototactic marine life.

Every city dweller has a personal assistant, greatly facilitating the work and lives of the Agor people. Not only can they assist with research and record keeping, querying information from the city database, but they can also monitor their health and take care of their daily needs.

The extremely advanced social productivity allows every Agor citizen to freely choose to develop in the direction of their interest without having to worry about future food and clothing issues.

However, just as civilizations on land are constantly threatened by mineral sickness and natural disasters, the Agor civilization, with a technological level far superior to that of land, is also under constant threat from the Sea Heirs and the Deep Sea Church.

Especially after the tragic success of the operation to behead the Sea God, which resulted in the complete annihilation of the Deep Sea Hunters, every large-scale movement of the Haisi Cluster would irritate the sensitive nerves of the Agor top brass.

The existence of members of the Deep Sea Church among the upper echelons was no secret to the other party. However, both sides were secretly advancing their own plans, thus achieving a delicate balance.

Both sides wait for the right opportunity to completely detonate the chess pieces in the peaceful situation. However, if a major accident occurs or a powerful third party intervenes, this balance will be instantly broken, and the entire Agor region may be involved.

Clemenza, the governor of Miliarum, the underwater city closest to the land country of Iberia, recently received a holographic projection communication from Governor Helatia.

The other party asked Clemenza to end the coastal search for hunters early and refused to respond to any signals sent by the hunters.

Helatia did not give any explanation for her decision. After confirming that Governor Clemenza had received the message, she quickly hung up the holographic projection communication.

This time, it was Clemenza who took the initiative to send a communication invitation to Helatia because two guests from the land unexpectedly visited her city.

After the call was connected, a translucent Helatia appeared before her. Before getting into the topic, Clemenza asked her the question she hadn't had time to ask the previous time.

"You made such a decisive decision. Are you so sure that Gloria survived the operation?" Clemenza raised her head and looked at Helatia. Her light golden eyes were still so deep.

"As a mother, I have full confidence in little Gloria's abilities. She's always been excellent. Besides, isn't it still possible to be completely certain that the hunters have been completely wiped out?"

Helatia's face was covered in a hazy, pale golden veil, making it difficult to discern her expression. Her expression was mysterious and noble. From her tone, one could tell she was confident in her own judgment and her daughter's abilities.

"Your judgment is always so calm and accurate. Just this morning, two people from the mainland directly passed through the barrier of the sky curtain and entered the city."

"Oh..." Helatia raised her eyebrows slightly. She was rarely interested in this rare situation.

"The security system detected the situation in time and issued an alert. The two intruders were a Sarkaz male and a Filin female. The Filin female was an envoy sent by the land nation of Kazdel. The Sarkaz male was ostensibly her bodyguard, but I don't think it was that simple."

"I took some time to meet with them. The Sarkaz man showed me Goletia's hair after the Hunter transformation. After genetic testing, it has been determined with a high probability that the hair is real."

"Gloria is still alive and is now active on land." Clemenza, who had been worried about Gloria, felt relieved when she heard the news.

"Oh, my little Goletia actually trusted a landman with her hair. It seems that the Sarkaz man is trustworthy to her."

As Goletia's mother, Helatia has been secretly paying attention to her situation, including combat records, interpersonal relationships, daily routine... The relationship between the two seems to be incompatible on the surface, but in fact they have always maintained a certain tacit understanding.

Helatia was very interested in what happened after Goletia came ashore.

"Yes, according to that man, this was the hair he severed with his sword during his sparring match with Gladia."

"With such strength, it's no wonder she's recognized by Gloria." Clemenza knew Gloria's character, a believer in strength above all else. Gloria had excelled since childhood, and everyone she interacted with was a genius of her level.

After joining the Deep Sea Hunters, Goletia's interpersonal relationships are mostly within the Deep Sea Hunters. As the elite military force of Agor, the Deep Sea Hunters' strong strength is the key to their survival on the battlefield.

As the second captain of the deep-sea hunters, she is responsible for the hunters under her command, and naturally developed a character that prioritizes strength above all else.

"What is the reason for the other party to visit Agor City?"

"They said they have a way to completely resolve Haisi's problem, and they've already reached the final stage."

"I want to meet these two guests who have come from afar. Could you please introduce them to me, Little Manta?"

"Can't you just change your name?" Clemenza complained helplessly. She was already the governor of a city and was no longer the same person she was in her student days.

"Alright, Archon Clemenza." Helatia covered her mouth and chuckled softly. It was her little mischievous way of teasing Clemenza. The little manta's reaction was still so amusing.

......

"Heratia, the Archon of the Scientific Development Planning Institute, greets the two guests from the distant land."

"Kal'tsit, I am visiting Agor on behalf of the land country Kazdel, hoping that both sides can reach a cooperation in resolving the sea issue." Kal'tsit responded with Agor's courtesy. With thousands of years of experience, she is familiar with the etiquette of various countries.

"I'm glad to see that countries on land are paying attention to the problems of the ocean. It means that Agor is not alone."

"But... from what I understand, Kazdel has been plagued by natural disasters and war for centuries, and it's only been a year since its founding. Furthermore, Kazdel doesn't border the ocean. When did you first notice the ocean's problems, and why did you get involved?"

"Like Agor, Kazdel has inherited the legacy of ancient civilization. Your Highnesses have no desire to compete with other nations for supremacy. The demons of the north, the monsters of the sea, the Originium disaster..."

"Terra civilization faces too many threats, not to mention the enemies that destroyed our ancient civilizations. Land and sea must unite to face this crisis together."

"That's a very good reason indeed. Ms. Kel'tsit should be aware that the Haisi issue is a long-standing one, and Agor has been unable to come up with a practical and effective solution to completely resolve it."

"Consul Clemenza told me that you have found a solution and have reached the final step. If possible, can you share the information with Agor?"
