186: Chapter 184 The Frustrated Eagle Nation, the Mad William
Having said that,
Luo Yu didn't spare the group another glance, turning around and walking toward the school gate.
From start to finish, he never looked back.
It wasn't until Luo Yu's figure disappeared into the school entrance that the invisible force restraining the silver-clad men quietly dissipated.
*Thud!*
The remaining men in silver collapsed to the ground in unison, gasping for air. Their bodies were already drenched in cold sweat, as if they had just been hauled up from ten thousand meters deep in the ocean.
The relief of surviving combined with a bone-deep terror, pushing them to the brink of a mental breakdown.
Soon,
Modu University's security forces and military personnel who had rushed to the scene packed up the silver-clad men and the wreckage of the equipment, taking them away.
Throughout the entire process, there was no interrogation, no questioning.
Because Luo Yu had already delivered the final verdict.
And every word he spoke was transmitted across the ocean through special channels at the fastest speed, verbatim.
...
Eagle Country, White House, President's Office.
The atmosphere was terrifyingly oppressive.
The President gripped the intelligence briefing tightly. The color had drained from his well-maintained face, leaving it a ghastly pale green.
"He... he knows?"
"How does he know about William?!"
"And... kneeling? Making my agents kneel at the entrance of Modu University?!"
*Bang!*
The President slammed the briefing onto the desk, his chest heaving violently. But... following the anger was an even deeper fear.
"Since he can't manage his own subordinates, I'll help him manage them."
This sentence,
like a curse,
echoed repeatedly in his mind.
He had no doubt that the young man would actually do it.
"William!"
"That good-for-nothing fool, William!"
The President's roar
left the senior aides and the intelligence director standing nearby as quiet as cicadas in winter.
"Didn't I already order him to stop all experiments? Why did he still send people to the Dragon Country?!"
"Mr. President... Dr. William said he was collecting raw fluctuation data from the 'Hollow Earth World.' It was the final step to perfecting the 'Godslayer' genetic model..." an aide explained softly.
"Godslayer? Godslayer!"
The President acted as if he had heard the world's funniest joke. He pointed at the screen showing the pathetic scene of the silver-clad men kneeling and begging for mercy, shouting hysterically, "This is your Godslayer? They couldn't even withstand a single glance from the opponent before kneeling down!"
"Now! Immediately! At once!"
The President pointed at the intelligence director's nose and ordered word by word, "Connect me to the Dragon Country's diplomatic channel. I want to speak with them personally!"
"Also, send someone to arrest that madman William immediately! Seal his laboratory and destroy all his research materials! Not a single scrap of paper is to be left behind!"
"Tell the world that the Eagle Country will conduct the most profound self-reflection regarding this 'misconduct' by 'scientific researchers' and offer its most sincere apologies to the Dragon Country!"
He was afraid.
Truly afraid.
He finally realized that in the face of absolute power, any schemes, any arrogance, or prejudice were merely catalysts for self-inflicted humiliation.
...
Meanwhile,
inside an underground base in the Rocky Mountains.
Dr. William was staring fanatically at the piece of Pandora cell tissue slowly wriggling in a Petri dish.
"Soon... it's almost a success..."
"As long as I have the raw data from the Hollow Earth World, I can simulate Godzilla's original energy frequency. Then... hahaha..."
Just as he was immersed in his fantasies, the alloy door of the laboratory was slammed open by a massive force.
A fully armed Special Awakened Unit swarmed in.
Leading them
was the grim-faced intelligence director who had previously reported to the President at the White House.
"Dr. William, you are under arrest."
The intelligence director's voice was cold, devoid of any emotion.
"What?"
Dr. William was stunned. "Are you crazy? I am conducting the greatest experiment in human history! You can't..."
"Take him away!"
The intelligence director gave him no chance to explain. Two soldiers roughly pinned him to the ground and slapped on a pair of special energy-suppressing handcuffs.
"You will regret this, you stupid politicians!"
Dr. William's roars echoed in the empty laboratory. "You have no idea what you're giving up! You're throwing away the only chance to counter that devil!"
"Devil?"
The intelligence director took a deep breath, walked over to Dr. William, crouched down, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Doctor, haven't you realized yet?"
"We... are merely that devil's playthings."
"The President asked me to pass a message to you."
The corner of the intelligence director's mouth curled into an incredibly bitter arc.
"You almost plunged the Eagle Country into a situation beyond redemption."
"What?"
Dr. William's pupils suddenly constricted.
For a moment,
the madness and paranoia on his face
faded away at this moment, replaced by endless... bewilderment and despair.
Finally,
it evolved into madness and violence.
No!
It will succeed,
He will definitely succeed.
