59: Chapter 58: The Bargains of Various Countries, Accepted with a Smile by the Dragon Kingdom

East Sea Defense Line, Command Center conference room.

General Zhan Kuang put a thick stack of documents on the table, the smile on his face impossible to hide.

"Luo Yu, take a look at these."

Luo Yu took the documents and opened the first page.

【Eagle Country Application】

Requesting priority processing of 1.8 million tons of nuclear waste and Mutated Beast in nuclear radiation exclusion zones.

Payment method:

Cash: 67.5 billion dragon coins;

Technology exchange: Complete technical data for the tenth-generation stealth fighter;

Technology exchange: Latest electromagnetic cannon technology;

Technology exchange: Fourth-generation personal mecha neural link system;

Resource mortgage: 20-year mining rights for the Agastla rare earth mine.

Luo Yu raised his eyebrows and continued flipping through.

【Northern Border Federation Application】

Requesting priority processing of 1.4 million tons of nuclear waste.

Payment method:

Cash: 350 billion dragon coins;

Technology exchange: Heavy mecha hydraulic system technology;

Resource mortgage: 15-year mining rights for the Xiali Bo natural gas field;

Resource mortgage: 10-year mining rights for the Erawu Mountain titanium mine.

【Western European Alliance Application】

Requesting priority processing of 800,000 tons of nuclear waste.

Payment method:

Cash: 200 billion dragon coins

Technology exchange: Third-generation nuclear fusion reactor technology

Technology exchange: Quantum communication encryption system

The more Luo Yu read, the more satisfied he became.

It seems these countries are quite sincere, right?

"There is also one from Japan."

General Lie Huo handed over another document.

【Japan Application】

Earnestly requesting Dragon Country to prioritize processing 1.1 million tons of nuclear waste.

Payment method:

Cash: 230 billion dragon coins (double price);

Willing to pay an additional 50 billion dragon coins as a "sincerity fee";

Willing to open all ports for the Dragon Country fleet to dock;

Willing to provide mining rights for deep-sea rare minerals;

Earnestly requesting Dragon Country to show leniency.

After reading, Luo Yu threw the document directly on the table and said: "Japan is truly desperate."

"Desperate or not, it's useless."

General Zhan Kuang shook his head and said: "No matter how much money they give, we won't process it; this is a matter of principle."

"Correct."

General Cang Yang and General Tie Quan also nodded one after another.

"What about the other countries?"

General Zhan Kuang looked at Luo Yu and asked with a smile: "In what order do you think we should process them?"

Luo Yu thought for a moment before saying slowly: "Northern Border Federation first."

"Why?"

"The resources they offered are the most tangible. Besides, although the Northern Border Federation has a large reserve of nuclear waste, it... is concentrated, making it highly efficient to process."

"Good."

General Zhan Kuang nodded: "That makes sense."

"Eagle Country second."

Luo Yu took a look and continued: "Although their technology is valuable, we are already researching some of it and just lack the final data verification."

"However, the stealth fighter technology and electromagnetic cannon technology are indeed useful; we can take them."

"Western European Alliance third."

"Nuclear fusion reactor technology is very important, but their nuclear waste is scattered across multiple countries, making it troublesome to process."

"As for the other small countries..."

Luo Yu spread his hands and said: "Put them at the back and take our time. They don't have anything good anyway."

"Agreed!"

"It's settled."

The four generals looked at each other, all revealing satisfied smiles.

"By the way."

General Lie Huo suddenly remembered something and said: "Luo Yu, when are you leaving?"

"In a week."

Luo Yu stretched and said: "Let Godzilla rest for a few days and adapt to the new form."

"Fine."

General Zhan Kuang said with a smile: "Then you should have a good rest these few days. If you need anything, just say so."

"I need..."

Luo Yu touched the Little Lizard on his shoulder and said: "Can Godzilla go to a Nuclear Power Plant to eat something?"

"A Nuclear Power Plant?"

The four generals looked puzzled.

"Yes."

Luo Yu said without hesitation: "He's been eating nuclear waste all this time. Let him have a proper meal and see how it tastes."

Of course, there was one thing Luo Yu didn't say: after he broke through to the SS rank, an atomic reactor also appeared in his body, which also needed nuclear energy to replenish.

"This..."

The four generals looked at each other again and couldn't help but laugh.

"Fine."

General Zhan Kuang took a deep breath and said: "Anyway, the money and resources given by various countries are enough; we aren't short of this bit of nuclear fuel."

"I will apply to the higher-ups to open up some strategic reserve Nuclear Power Plants for you."

"Thanks."

Luo Yu smiled and stood up, "Then I'll go back and rest first."

"Wait."

General Cang Yang called out to Luo Yu: "There's one more thing I need to tell you."

"What is it?"

"About Baijiang City..."

General Cang Yang said helplessly: "They want to erect statues for you and Godzilla."

"Statues?"

Luo Yu was stunned for a moment.

"Yes."

General Lie Huo said slowly: "The Baijiang City government says you are the hero who walked out from there, so a statue must be erected to commemorate it. And it's not just Baijiang City; the Magic City, the Capital, and several other major cities are applying for it."

"This..."

Luo Yu scratched his head and smiled: "Isn't that a bit exaggerated?"

"Not exaggerated."

General Tie Quan said seriously: "You are now the hero of the Dragon Country and the hope for all humanity against the Abyssal Giant Beast. Erecting statues is appropriate."

"Then... whatever."

Luo Yu shrugged: "I can't stop them anyway."

"Also."

General Lie Huo said meaningfully: "Your childhood sweetheart, Su Zhiruo, she is currently training in the Capital, right?"

"Mm."

"Do you want to transfer her to the East Sea Defense Line? If you two act together, you can look out for each other."

"No need. She is at a critical stage of breaking through, so don't disturb her."

"Fine then."

General Lie Huo didn't force it.

Then, Luo Yu left the conference room with Godzilla.

Just after walking out of the command center, he took out his phone and dialed Su Zhiruo's number.

"Hello?"

Su Zhiruo's crisp voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Zhiruo, it's me."

"Luo Yu!"

Su Zhiruo's voice suddenly became excited: "Are you okay? I saw the news saying you went to the wormhole and killed a Fifth-Tier Giant Beast..."

"I'm fine, I'm fine. Godzilla is very powerful; a Fifth-Tier Giant Beast is no match for him."

"That's good."

Su Zhiruo breathed a sigh of relief and asked subconsciously: "Where are you now?"

"East Sea Defense Line."

"When will you be back?"

"Not coming back for now. I have to go to other countries to process nuclear waste in a week, so I might be abroad for a while."

"Is that so..."

Su Zhiruo's voice sounded a bit disappointed.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

Su Zhiruo paused and said softly: "It's just... I miss you a little."

Luo Yu felt a warmth in his heart: "I miss you too. When you break through to the S-rank, I'll go to the Capital to pick you up."

"Really?"

"Really."

"Then... you have to keep your word."

"Don't worry."

The two chatted for a few more sentences before hanging up.

Luo Yu looked at the photo of Su Zhiruo on his phone screen, and a curve unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Godzilla, let's go have a big meal."

Hiss!

Godzilla flicked his tail excitedly.
