Reincarnated with the Country System

Chapter 50 The Pentagon



Several cars were speeding down Rafa's main road. The shiny bodies of the cars created an eye-catching scene.

The city's traffic police had turned all the traffic signals on the main roads green. The red and blue flashing rods in their hands were quickly telling other cars on the road to move off the road. The policemen started moving other cars to make way for these cars.

Everyone in the city knew whose this convoy was. So everyone moved off the road as quickly as possible to let this convoy go first. The speed of this convoy was extraordinary. The cars were moving quickly in a single line.

It was Alberto's convoy.

Policemen on the street saluted as the cars raced past.

The vehicles headed toward a massive structure: the Pentagon, the empire's most powerful military establishment. The motorcade accelerated even more as it neared the Pentagon gates.

The soldiers on duty quickly recognized Alberto's convoy and raised the barricades.

As the vehicles entered the gate, the Pentagon gate security guards saluted the motorcade.

After the cars stopped, Alberto quickly got out of his car and started to go inside.

A man in a suit, a look of concern on his face, rushed towards Alberto. His breathing was shaky, his voice was restless, "Your Majesty, welcome. Everyone is already there. They are waiting for you."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Alberto doesn't look at him, just says with a cold expression and a stern tone, "Good, Let's go quickly!"

They continued to move forward quickly.

.....

{Does this trouble have to happen now? I had thought everything was going very smoothly.}

They stopped in front of a door. "Confidential" was written above the door. The guards on duty saluted Alberto when they saw him. One of them quickly opened the door.

As soon as he entered, Alberto noticed a tense atmosphere. Many people were sitting around a long table. Prime Minister Elizabeth, the heads of the army, navy and Air force, the Minister of Defense, and Circe - all with worried faces.

They rose to their feet when they saw him. Alberto took his seat and waved them to sit down.

"So tell me, how did we get into this situation?"

"Your Majesty, please pay attention here." The Minister of Defense stood up from his seat and activating a large screen.

The large screen mounted on the wall of the room turned on. An image appeared on it. The image was slightly blurry, but it was clear that it was an island.

"Your Majesty, this picture was taken 45 hours ago from our satellite. As you can see in the picture, it is an island. But there was no island here before. It is as if it suddenly appeared," the Defense Minister said in a serious voice.

The Defense Minister pressed a button on the console, and the image changed. The room fell silent as everyone gazed at the new picture.

"This picture was taken from our patrol aircraft. Which was sent there to determine the location of the island."

This picture showed the island, but this time, it was clear - a vast, colossal sea creature, like a turtle, was carrying the island on its back. Everyone in the room was surprised to see this picture.

Alberto looked at Circe with a slightly angry look.

Circe got nervous seeing Alberto looking at her like that. Her hands were sweating and her eyes were fluttering.

"Circe," he said, his tone sharp, "you assured me there were no more monsters in this ocean."

Circe looked up, her face pale. "Your Majesty," she began, Her voice trembled, "I scanned every inch of the monstrous sea. I found no such creature. We killed the largest monster, the Sea Serpent, long ago. I... I have no idea where this turtle came from."

The Defense Minister interjected, his tone worried. "Your Majesty, blaming Lady Circe may not be fair. This creature evaded all our radars and sensors. We still don’t understand how."

Alberto let out a long breath at this. He looked at Marcus and said, "General Marcus, give me a cigarette."

Marcus took out a pack of cigarettes from his jacket pocket and handed one to Alberto. Alberto held the cigarette to his mouth and Marcus lit it with a lighter. Alberto took a deep breath and blew out the cloud of smoke.

There was a kind of tense atmosphere in the room. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Alberto. Everyone was worried and waiting for Alberto's next reaction.

"So what is the situation with this turtle now?"

"Several destroyers and submarines from the Navy were sent to the scene. This monster was more powerful than we thought. According to the report, a total of 22 torpedoes from the destroyers and submarines hit this monster directly. We believe it's seriously injured, but it may still be alive." The Navy Chief said.

"Also, Your Majesty, I have something else to show you," said the Minister of Defense.

Another picture appeared on the screen.

Here, various types of monsters were seen.

They also saw monsters that looked like sharks but were standing like humans.

"This photo was taken by the Navy," the Defence Minister explained.

Alberto exhaled another puff of smoke, his gaze fixed on the screen. "What are these creatures?"

Then the Navy Chief spoke up. "Your Majesty, I think the people we rescued can tell us more about this."

"Who did you rescue?" Alberto said.

"Your Majesty, according to reports, these monsters attacked some ships. We were able to rescue some of them. They should be arriving in port by this afternoon."

"Hmm, very good. Get them here as soon as they arrive," Alberto commanded, "We need to get all the information we can from them. I want to know their stories."

"And, Your Majesty," Elizabeth spoke up, "We have lost 16 naval personnel and a Gearing class Destroyer has been damaged."

"Hmm. Arrange for their funerals.

They will be given the proper honour for their bravery." Alberto said firmly.

"Also increase our security on the water, land, and air."

Everyone nodded, prepared to execute his orders.
