175: Chapter 173 Global Leftovers and the Generals' Frowns

The next stop on Godzilla's "Global Gourmet Tour" was astonishingly efficient.

In the face of absolute power, any hesitation or petty schemes appeared pale and powerless.

When Godzilla's figure, as massive as an island, appeared outside the territorial waters of various nations, it was no longer greeted by gunfire and warnings, but by pre-prepared "tributes" and humble smiles.

Off the coastline of the Gaul Chicken Country, Godzilla didn't even need to come ashore; the other side used specially made transport ships to respectfully deliver their few remaining hundreds of nuclear warheads and the fuel rods from all their Nuclear Power Plants right to Godzilla's mouth.

Godzilla simply opened its mouth and took a gentle breath; in less than ten minutes, nothing but empty shells remained on the transport ships.

In a televised speech, the president of the Gaul Chicken Country called this act, "For the common future of humanity, it is our duty."

In the John Bull Country, the situation was much the same.

They even moved all their nuclear submarines to the ports in advance and opened the reactor shields to make it convenient for Godzilla to "dine."

...

However, the nuclear reserves of these countries were truly insignificant compared to the two "super granaries": the Northern Border Federation and the Eagle Country.

As Godzilla ate its way through them, it felt more like tasting some unique after-dinner desserts.

【Absorbed Gaul Chicken Country's nuclear reserves, evolution progress + 1.2%】

【Absorbed John Bull Country's nuclear reserves, evolution progress + 0.9%】

【Absorbed Ganges Federation's nuclear reserves, evolution progress + 1.5%】

...

When Luo Yu brought his "zoo" and cleared out the last registered nuclear facility on Earth, Godzilla's total evolution progress finally stalled at the somewhat awkward figure of 75.8%.

It was still nearly a quarter away from the next evolution.

And Earth, it seemed, had already been "drained dry."

...

Dragon Country, East Sea Defense Line, Supreme Command Center.

The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.

On the massive holographic sand table, the latest data on Godzilla, provided by Luo Yu, was displayed.

【Current Form: Peak Titan: Godzilla of Final Destruction (Eve of Burning Overload)】

【Size: 1480 meters】

【Weight: 99.9 million tons】

【evolution progress: 75.8%】

General Zhan Kuang had an unlit cigarette in his mouth, his brows knitted into a knot.

He stared at that "75.8%" figure, unable to say a word for a long time.

There was no help for it; no one had expected that even after consuming basically all of Earth's nuclear weapons, Godzilla still couldn't evolve.

Only 75.8%, with 24.2% remaining—what was to be done?

Once it couldn't evolve, and once the three kings of the abyss completely entered Earth through the wormhole, it would be game over.

Godzilla was definitely no match for the three kings of the abyss.

Nearby, the complexions of the other top Dragon Country military generals didn't look any better.

"Global nuclear weapons, nuclear raw materials, nuclear reserves, including the research reactors in every nook and cranny—counting everything, it's only enough to feed it to this extent?"

A general responsible for strategic resource statistics rubbed his temples, his tone full of exhaustion and disbelief.

To support Luo Yu's plan, they had almost turned the whole world upside down, even digging up nuclear waste that some countries had buried underground decades ago.

And the result... just this?

"Godzilla's appetite is three times larger than our most exaggerated estimates."

General Zhan Kuang finally spoke, his voice somewhat hoarse.

"We gambled the national destiny of the Dragon Country and forced the whole world to join the table.

Now that the cards have been dealt, it seems the cards in our hands aren't big enough."

Frustrating!

It truly was a bit frustrating!!

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the conference room became even more oppressive and helpless.

That was the reality.

The arrival of the three kings of the abyss in one year was a certainty.

Godzilla was humanity's only hope, but this hope was now stuck on a 75.8% progress bar, unable to go up or come down.

This feeling was even more stifling than facing the Abyssal Great Army pressing down on the borders.

If it could evolve, then everyone would be happy, and all of humanity would have hope and a future.

But now, if other countries found out that Godzilla was still so far away from evolving, they would surely be the first to fall into chaos.

"Marshal, is there anything else... that we missed?"

Another general cast his gaze toward the main seat of the conference room, at the young man who had been silent ever since he returned.

In the entire conference room, it seemed only Luo Yu had not a trace of anxiety on his face.

He was leisurely drinking tea.

On his shoulder, Mothra, shrunk to the size of a palm, was using her antennae to massage his temples.

On his lap, the dark green little snake "Pandora" was curled into a ball, sleeping soundly and occasionally blowing a bubble.

As for Godzilla, it was soaking in the sea outside the command center.

Its massive body churned the seawater, yawning from time to time and spraying out a plume of scorching steam, making the sea surface bubble and boil.

Hearing the general's question, Luo Yu slowly set down his teacup.

"There really is nothing left on Earth."

He spoke, his tone calm.

"Then..."

General Zhan Kuang's heart sank; he thought Luo Yu had already given up, ready to break the jar since it was already cracked.

"Hehe!!!"

The next second, the corners of Luo Yu's mouth curled into a meaningful arc, and he said in a deep voice, "But... who said our 'canteen' is only on Earth?"

Huh?

In the conference room, all the generals were stunned.

What did that mean?

General Zhan Kuang's brain turned the fastest.

He suddenly thought of something, his eyes instantly widening, completely unaware that the cigarette in his mouth had fallen to the ground.

"Marshal, you... you don't mean to..."

Luo Yu did not answer directly; he stood up and walked calmly to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

At this moment, it was twilight.

The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the horizon red, and in that deep blue sky, a bright, massive full moon had already quietly risen.

Luo Yu's gaze pierced through the clouds, crossed the atmosphere, and landed on that massive sphere hanging high in the heavens.

His eyes no longer looked like he was admiring the scenery, but rather like a famished diner sizing up the most tempting main course on the menu.

"Generals."

Luo Yu's voice drifted over, delivering a statement that left everyone shocked and incredulous.

"The Earth buffet is over."

"Next, it's time to go to the Moon and have a taste."
