I disagree!
At this point, the one who tied the knot must untie it. Even though he was very unwilling, Squid still had to bite the bullet and speak.
"Our Bible is a universally recognized book, endorsed by hundreds of millions of Christians worldwide, so we can use it as evidence. Your evidence lacks sufficient credibility, and I think it needs further discussion."
Obviously, if this matter cannot be clarified at this time, someone might just liberate Rome one day.
"Our history also has the support of billions of people, and it actually happened. Protests are ineffective. Besides, I remember you said before that the United Nations is also HMS, right? Who put you in there?"
The Divine Land representative clearly wasn't buying it. After finishing his speech, he even turned his gaze to the security personnel in the venue, as if to ask who had let this thing in.
The security personnel present kept their eyes down, not daring to look up.
They couldn't afford to offend any of the countries present; they were all like grandfathers to them.
Despite the mindless opposition from Western countries, Divine Land is not without allies in the international arena. On the contrary, many Third World countries have good relations with Divine Land and have also suffered from years of suppression by Western countries. They also have their own ideas about the current world order.
Typical examples are the oil tycoons of the Middle East, and a large number of small Africa countries.
They had long wondered why Divine Land, having developed so strongly, hadn't taken action against other countries, and this recent action by Divine Land clearly delighted them.
Although their cultures are not entirely the same as Divine Land's, in the current world order, these countries have to rely on Divine Land's support if they want to develop. After all, Divine Land and Russia are the only countries that can compete with the Eagle Country right now.
And the Russia are, after all, white people. Among the biggest conflicts in the world today, racial conflicts are particularly serious. At this time, it would be better for these small countries to stand with Divine Land.
Divine Land and the Eagle Country go to war, the harassment and attacks they face from the Eagle Country, as well as various military aid, will be greatly reduced. This is where their interests align with those of Divine Land.
Soon, the meeting initiated a vote on Divine Land's actions, preparing to decide whether to impose sanctions on Divine Land based on the vote's results.
The United Nations sanctions are a joke, and everyone knows that perfectly well.
The representative from Divine Land remained silent, coldly observing the representatives from other countries.
Okay, you're voting, right? Make sure you remember this.
Instead of panicking, he had the people behind him meticulously write down all the countries that had voted for sanctions in a small notebook.
I didn't mean anything by it, I was just making a record.
The voting results came out quickly. About one-third of the countries abstained, and these were mostly small, relatively neutral countries. When the votes were tallied among the countries that did vote, the results were somewhat awkward.
It was a tie.
This result was somewhat surprising, yet also quite reasonable.
If it passes the resolution, the United Nations, which lacks the power to sanction Divine Land, will appear even more incompetent; if it doesn't pass it, it goes against the United Nations's principles.
It's fair to say that this ending wasn't unexpected.
The representatives from Divine Land left before the results were announced. Does the outcome even matter to Divine Land now?
As for the Java Country representative who initiated the meeting, he wasn't allowed to say a word throughout the entire process, and he's even trying to change his nationality now.
Unfortunately, although he wasn't entirely clear on the situation domestically, he had seen the live broadcast of Divine Land's previous offensive. Under such firepower, the very existence of Java was in question.
It would be best to change your nationality and run away while you're still abroad.
The United Nations meeting ended abruptly, while in Java Country, the captured Java Country prime minister was treated like a chicken and thrown onto the space carrier.
He was the only one; the other high-ranking officials had all been detained in Java and had not all been brought aboard the space carrier.
Their personal value is limited; in Divine Land's view, they don't even qualify to step onto the space carrier.
All his struggles and writhing along the way were in vain. This guy had basically never suffered before, and this trip had worn him out to the point where he was about to collapse.
Soon, the commander-in-chief aboard the space carrier arrived at the cell where the Java Country prime minister was being held.
Upon seeing the newcomer's military uniform and the numerous rows of badges, the Prime Minister of Java Country immediately exclaimed.
"I am the Prime Minister of Java Country. I demand that you release me, or else face the wrath of the entire nation of Java Country!"
I was lying there listlessly just a moment ago, but now I'm all energized.
"I think this guy's mental state is still a bit low. Let's cheer him up."
The commander-in-chief looked at the bound man who was still jumping around and said something softly.
"OK!"
One of the people next to them tapped a button, and a large screen appeared in front of them.
The large screen displayed images of various locations, buildings, and wealth, which looked somewhat familiar to the Prime Minister of Java Country.
"Does this look familiar? This was all obtained through interrogation of other people; it's your asset."
The commander-in-chief clapped his hands, and the first building displayed on the big screen, a tall building of more than ten stories, collapsed into pieces with a loud bang.
What are you doing!
The Prime Minister of Java Country immediately panicked, almost jumping out of his chair. This was his favorite home, and it had been blown to bits.
"Cooperate well with the interrogation, otherwise..."
The commander-in-chief narrowed his eyes, casually tapped a spot on the large screen, and pointed to another manor-like building.
Within minutes, a convoy of dozens of new armored vehicles entered the manor and razed it to the ground.
"I... I'll cooperate. Just tell me what you need to do."
Seeing that he had lost so much property just because of a short delay, this guy was heartbroken.
"What we need to do is very simple: just issue a self-criticism edict to the Java Country government, and then ban all local customs and habits that suppress Divine Land People."
"Imperial Edict of Self-Reproach?"
The Java Country prime minister was somewhat bewildered. What was this all about? They'd already come knocking on their door, and now they wanted him to do all this?
It's as if doing these things can atone for one's sins.
However, when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head. Having nothing left to do, how could you dare to challenge the Divine Land army?
Forget about any edict of self-reproach, just grit your teeth and write it. Once it's done, that's it. After these guys from Divine Land leave, I can figure out how to get revenge later.
The most urgent thing is to cooperate and get them to release you.
