"Today, here, I also have some regrettable news to announce." Willy's tone became serious.

The audience below the stage also looked at Willy, wondering what Willy was going to say next.

Zofia's parents also got up at this time and invited the families of the other Warrior Candidate to have dinner at their home. Because of their children, these families had a good relationship and naturally did not refuse.

The Marley Soldiers guarding the venue made no attempt to stop the Eldians, and so Zofia and her family left the venue.

On the stage, Willy had prepared his words and calmly began, "As everyone knows, the Titan Power of the Eldia is a cursed power that poses a great threat to humanity. However, in Marley, there are madmen who attempt to master this cursed power, and have even created new Titan Warriors."

Willy's words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating countless ripples.

Representatives from various countries immediately became serious. In fact, the appearance of new Titan Warriors in the war between Marley and the Middle East had already attracted the attention of various countries.

Those new Titan Warriors are one of the reasons why the nations dare not attack Marley now, but the origin of these Titan Warriors is also a mystery. After all, for the past hundred years, only the six Titan Warriors and the War Hammer Titan hidden in the Tybur family have been active on the battlefield.

Now, Willy has revealed this secret: Marleyan are attempting to master the Titan Power, and have even created new Titan Warriors?

A shared thought emerged in the minds of the representatives from various countries: the man who created the Titan Warriors must die!

Although current technological capabilities are sufficient to deal with ordinary Titan armies, nations are still wary of Titan Warriors who can transform at will and appear and disappear unpredictably.

Ebson, who had been sitting quietly in the stands, tilted his head, extended his right pinky, and casually scratched his ear. "Tsk tsk tsk, seems like they're coming for me."

Bill, standing next to Ebson, tossed aside his half-finished cigarette, stomped it out, and asked in a deep voice, "Master, shall we take action to Guard you?"

Ebson shook his head, a half-smile on his face, and said, "No rush. Let me see what else Tybur has to say, and what reason he has to attack me. After all, what I've done all seems to be for Marley, doesn't it?"

Willy then turned his gaze to Ebson and declared righteously, "Attempting to control the Titan Power is a betrayal of humanity. Even if he did it for the sake of Marley, we Marley cannot betray all humanity for the sake of our own nation's selfish desires. Therefore, I hereby declare on behalf of Marley: Marley will not allow any research into the Titan Power!"

Earl Ebson, I regret to inform you that you will be arrested for Treason!

Swish! Astonished gazes turned to Ebson in the Marley Nobility' seats. None of the Marley Nobility around him had imagined that the person Willy was talking about would be Ebson. This guy had always kept a low profile and rarely entered the Marley Nobility circle. Apart from his Arms Company, which was quite remarkable, no one else could imagine that he was the one who created the Titan Warriors.

A series of hurried footsteps sounded as a squad of fully armed Marley Soldiers, carrying guns and looking menacing, rushed straight towards the Marley Nobility' seats.

This display terrified the other Marley Nobility in the Nobility seats, who quickly moved away from Ebson, leaving a large empty space around Ebson.

But Ebson remained calm and sat in the same spot with Bill.

The representatives from various countries were mostly watching with a detached, almost detached, attitude. To them, Marley was destroying its own defenses. Who knew if more Titan Warriors would emerge in Marley in the future? The other countries were more than happy to see this happen. Meanwhile, some representatives were starting to have other ideas: Could they really create Titan Warriors? What if they could control them...?

In the Officer' dock of Marley, Marshal Calvi, wearing a red sash, frowned. Arrest Ebson? Tybur hadn't discussed this with him.

Calvi was pragmatic; he only considered Marley's interests. In his view, Ebson's ability to create new Titan Warriors was a huge advantage for Marley's development. What did the Fate of humanity have to do with Marley?

Calvi was immediately very dissatisfied with Willy's unilateral decision-making, and the opposing voices from the high-ranking military officers around him also indicated the opposition of many Marley Officer.

"Clap clap clap," Ebson clapped lightly with his palm. "What a convenient excuse! It really shows how foolish you guys are. You're a bunch of pathetic fools, using the Eldians as a shield to cover up your own dirty and despicable little schemes."

Regardless of what Ebson said, the Marley Soldiers continued to walk towards Ebson with their Rifle on their backs.

Ebson's expression turned completely cold.

In the darkness, Litt hissed through gritted teeth, "You bastard, stay away from me! If you touch me again, I'll chop off your hand!"

Bazel awkwardly released his grip on Litt's arm. "Well, I couldn't help it, it was just too dark in here. I was just nervous, don't get the wrong idea."

Litt: "Get out! Get away from me!"

Bazel: "Fine, I'll get out!"

Bazel silently crouched down in the corner, and after a while, he said, "Hey, Litt, something's not right. Everyone outside is gone."

Litt ignored him and didn't respond.

"Hey! Litt, can you smell something strange? There's a weird smell!"

"Hey! Litt, there are so many big barrels outside!"

"Hey!..."

Litt, unable to contain himself any longer, rushed over and slammed a large punch down on Leeteuk's shoulder, yelling, "You bastard! Can't you be quiet for once?!"

Outside the small, dark room, a piece of fuse was almost burned to the end.

"Aim at the target! Load the shells! Prepare to fire!" a Marley Officer shouted, and his Soldiers immediately sprang into action, deftly adjusting the cannons and loading shells.

The cannon was pointed at an ordinary house not far away.

Inside the house, Ivanor was happily fiddling with a piece of white paper she had found in the room.

Soon, a paper Rose appeared in Ivanor's hand. Excitedly, she Rose it to Aili, "Aili-chan! Look! A flower!"

Frustrated, Aili glanced at it, took the paper flower, and threw it on the ground. "What a piece of junk!"

"!!! Aili-chan! How could you!" Ivanor's eyes widened, looking extremely hurt.

Just as the atmosphere in the meeting room was tense and on the verge of conflict.

Boom!!! A huge explosion resounded through the sky, and in the darkness, the enormous orange-yellow fireball rising in the distance was so clearly visible.

Amidst everyone's surprise and doubt, another thunderous barrage of artillery fire erupted.

"What's going on?! What happened?" The representatives and reporters from various countries in the venue panicked.

"Roar!!! Hiss!!!" Although faint, the Titan's roar was very clear and reached everyone's ears.

Ebson looked up as if he had expected it, and a huge figure was rapidly approaching the venue in the night.
