109: Chapter 108 The Youngest General in History Shocks the World Again

One day later, in the capital.

Inside the Supreme Command Headquarters of the Dragon Country, the red carpet stretched from the main entrance to the podium, with high-ranking officers standing on both sides, their ranks glittering.

Luo Yu was wearing a brand-new general's uniform with a miniature Godzilla perched on his shoulder, walking inside.

"Squeak! (This carpet is really soft.)"

Godzilla flicked its tail, its thirty-centimeter body swaying on Luo Yu's shoulder.

"Don't move around."

Luo Yu lowered his voice and said, "This is an award ceremony, be serious."

"Squeak! (Boring.)"

The high-ranking officers on both sides looked at this man and beast, their expressions somewhat strange.

General Zhan Kuang stood next to the podium, his mouth twitching; he had warned Luo Yu yesterday that it was best not to bring Godzilla to the award ceremony.

But Luo Yu had said, "If Godzilla doesn't come, who will hold up the scene for me?"

Hold up the scene...

General Zhan Kuang understood now; this kid Luo Yu really treated Godzilla like a pet.

Is it reasonable?

It is absolutely reasonable.

On the podium, the Supreme Commander personally presided over the ceremony.

"Comrade Luo Yu."

The Commander's voice echoed in the hall.

"Here!"

Luo Yu stood at attention, a standard military posture.

Godzilla also straightened its tiny body.

"Squeak!"

The whole hall almost couldn't hold back their laughter.

The Commander was very calm and picked up the award order: "In view of Comrade Luo Yu's outstanding contributions in fighting against the Abyssal Giant Beast and maintaining world peace, after research by the Supreme Command Headquarters, it has been decided to confer the rank of General upon Comrade Luo Yu."

As the words fell, two honor guards walked up holding the General's epaulets.

Luo Yu took off his Lieutenant General's epaulets and put on the brand-new General's epaulets.

The golden stars glittered under the lights.

An eighteen-year-old General.

The first in the history of the Dragon Country.

"Squeak! (Pretty.)"

Godzilla leaned over and touched the epaulets with its little claws.

Luo Yu ignored it and saluted the Commander.

The Commander returned the salute, then walked down from the podium and personally pinned the medal on Luo Yu.

"Young man, well done."

"Thank you, Chief."

"Godzilla has also worked hard."

The Commander looked at the Little Lizard on Luo Yu's shoulder.

"Squeak! (It should be done.)"

Godzilla flicked its tail, looking very pleased.

The Commander laughed: "I'll have the logistics department prepare some nuclear weapons for Godzilla as a reward later."

"Squeak! (Many thanks, Chief.)"

Godzilla's slit pupils lit up.

In an instant, the whole hall burst into laughter.

After the award ceremony, Luo Yu was surrounded by a group of high-ranking officers.

"General Luo, congratulations."

"An eighteen-year-old General, unprecedented."

"Godzilla performed well today and didn't make trouble."

"Squeak! (When have I ever made trouble?)"

Godzilla flicked its tail in dissatisfaction.

General Zhan Kuang walked over and patted Luo Yu on the shoulder: "Let's go, go to the conference room, there is something to discuss with you."

"Now?"

"Yes, the four Generals are all waiting for you."

Luo Yu followed General Zhan Kuang out of the hall, walked through the long corridor, and arrived at a confidential conference room.

Pushing the door open, General Zhan Kuang, General Lie Huo, General Hanbing, and General Leiting were already sitting at the conference table.

"General Luo is here."

General Lie Huo stood up with a smile, "Sit down."

Luo Yu sat down next to General Zhan Kuang, and Godzilla jumped onto the table and lay down in front of him.

"Squeak..."

It yawned.

"Let's talk about business first."

General Zhan Kuang opened the tablet on the table, pulled up a document, and said: "The Supreme Command Headquarters has approved your plan to enter the wormhole to explore the Abyss World."

"Good."

Luo Yu said with some anticipation: "When are we leaving?"

"Don't be impatient." General Hanbing interjected, "Although it is approved, the preparation work must be done well; the other side of the wormhole is not like the surface, the degree of danger is completely unknown."

"I know."

"So we have assigned you a helper." General Lie Huo said with a smile.

"A helper?"

"Your girlfriend, Su Zhiruo."

Luo Yu was stunned for a moment.

"She is now an SS-rank Space-type Awakener." General Lie Huo continued: "In the past three months, the country has given her the highest standard of resource supply, and her progress speed is frighteningly fast."

"SS-rank..."

Luo Yu muttered to himself.

He remembered that when Su Zhiruo awakened, she had an SS-rank Talent, but... at that time her strength was only E-rank; to rise to SS-rank in three months, this speed was indeed exaggerated, which also showed from the side that Su Zhiruo's talent was amazing.

"Space-type abilities are very useful in exploration."

General Leiting added: "If you encounter danger, you can teleport and evacuate directly, which is more effective than any life-saving means."

"And..."

General Zhan Kuang changed the subject and said: "You can't always let your girlfriend wait for you in the capital, right?"

Hearing this, Luo Yu smiled: "Okay, I agree."

"Then it's settled."

General Zhan Kuang recorded on the tablet and said: "In addition to Su Zhiruo, we will also equip you with an elite squad, all of whom are Awakener of S-rank or higher."

"No need."

Luo Yu shook his head decisively and said: "Too many people will be troublesome; me, Godzilla, and Zhiruo will be enough."

"This..."

The four Generals looked at each other.

"Are you sure?"

General Lie Huo frowned and said: "The situation on the other side of the wormhole is unclear; what if you encounter a large number of Abyssal Giant Beasts..."

"That will just be extra food for Godzilla."

"Squeak! (That's right.)"

Godzilla flicked its tail to show agreement.

"Sigh!"

General Zhan Kuang sighed: "You kid, you are really bold."

"It's not about being bold." Luo Yu said very seriously: "It's about having confidence in Godzilla. Besides, with more people, the target is larger, and it's easy to be exposed."

"That's true." General Hanbing nodded, "Then do as you say."

"When are we leaving?"

Luo Yu asked with some anticipation.

"In a week." General Zhan Kuang replied: "In the next few days, you should meet with Su Zhiruo first and practice your coordination, after all, you are going into the wormhole together."

"Got it."

"By the way."

General Lie Huo suddenly remembered something, "Your award ceremony was broadcast live globally just now."

"Ah?"

Luo Yu blinked his eyes.

"The Supreme Command Headquarters meant to let the whole world see the confidence of the Dragon Country." General Zhan Kuang said proudly: "An eighteen-year-old General, combined with Godzilla, this combination is shocking enough."

"Then now..."

"Now the global network has exploded."

At this moment, on all major global social platforms, the topic of Luo Yu's award ceremony has dominated all hot search lists.

"An eighteen-year-old General? Did I read that right?"

"The key is that Godzilla is also at the scene, that Little Lizard is so cute."

"Cute my ass, that's a monster that can kill a Sixth-Tier Giant Beast in seconds."

"General Luo is awesome!"

"Dragon Country is mighty!"

"..."

The bullet screen scrolling speed was too fast to see clearly.

Eagle Country, The Hundred Palaces.

In the President's office.

"An eighteen-year-old General..."

The President stared at the live replay on the screen and sighed faintly.

Still that sentence, if Luo Yu were a person from Eagle Country, he would also promote Luo Yu to a five-star General.

"Mr. President." The Minister of National Defense stood aside and said cautiously: "The Dragon Country is declaring sovereignty to the whole world."

"I know."

The President showed an expression of impotence.

Just kidding, the youngest General in the history of the Eagle Country was twenty-five years old, and that was a special case when the Abyss Era began.

Now that an eighteen-year-old General has appeared in the Dragon Country... it is truly enviable, jealous, and hateful, and it also shows from the side that the Dragon Country attaches great importance to Luo Yu and Godzilla.

"How is the situation in the Hollow Earth World?" Seeming to have some grievance in his heart, the President took the initiative to change the subject.

"..."

The Minister of National Defense's face stiffened: "It's the same, the third exploration team was lost again yesterday."

"Trash!"

Bang!!

The President slapped the table.

"Mr. President, the situation in the Hollow Earth World is more complicated than we imagined." The Minister of National Defense explained with a stiff upper lip: "Not only are there Fifth-Tier Giant Beasts inside, but also various unknown dangers. Our mechas cannot cope with them at all."

"Then what do you say we should do?"

"I..."

The Minister of National Defense hesitated.

"Speak!"

"How about... ask the Dragon Country for help?"

Silence.

The office fell into dead silence.

The President stared at the Minister of National Defense, his eyes full of unwillingness and resentment.

Ask the Dragon Country for help?

Doesn't that mean admitting again that the Eagle Country is inferior to the Dragon Country?

"Mr. President." The Minister of National Defense gritted his teeth and said: "Now the whole world knows that only Godzilla can deal with high-tier Giant Beasts. If we want to explore the Hollow Earth World, we must use the power of the Dragon Country."

"I don't agree."

"But..."

"I said, I don't agree!"

The President stood up, turning his back to the Minister of National Defense: "I don't believe that our Eagle Country cannot explore the Hollow Earth World on its own."

"Mr. President, now is not the time to be willful."

"You get out."

"Mr. President..."

"Get out!"

The Minister of National Defense was helpless and had to turn and leave.

The President was left alone in the office, drinking a cup of coffee with grievance.

No way, he knew in his heart that the Minister of National Defense was right.

The exploration of the Hollow Earth World has reached a stalemate; if he does not use external forces, the Eagle Country will not be able to continue.

And the only one in the world who can help is the Godzilla of the Dragon Country.

"Damn it..."

The President clenched his fists unconsciously, his knuckles turning white; perhaps he would have to bow his head to the Dragon Country for help again.
