76: Chapter 75 The Nuclear Waste Feast and the Eagle Nation Captain's "Surprise," the Angry President

At this moment, in the Core Area of the Agallas Restricted Zone.

Godzilla had already opened its mouth, and blue light surged from the ground as six hundred thousand tons of nuclear waste were being devoured by it at an astonishing speed.

There was no helping it; the current Godzilla was truly too strong, which caused its speed in devouring nuclear waste to increase several times over!

Consequently, under these circumstances, the surrounding radiation levels were dropping at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As for Luo Yu, he was standing on top of Godzilla's head, feeling the energy surging into his body.

【 evolution progress + 0.8% ...+ 1.2% ...+ 1.5% ... 】

【 Current evolution progress: 91.8% 】

【 Host gains 30% energy conversion 】

【 Spiritual Power + 500000 ...+ 800000 ...+ 1000000 ... 】

"Refreshing."

Luo Yu couldn't help but close his eyes, his internal atomic reactor operating automatically to convert and absorb the feedback energy.

His Spiritual Power value was skyrocketing crazily.

One hundred and sixty million... One hundred and seventy million... One hundred and eighty million...

Three hours later.

The radiation level in the Agallas Restricted Zone had already dropped to a safe range, and the six hundred thousand tons of nuclear waste had been eaten clean by Godzilla.

【 evolution progress: 93.3% 】

【 Spiritual Power value: 190 million 】

"Ten million short of two hundred million."

Luo Yu opened his eyes, a slight arc appearing at the corners of his mouth.

It seemed he hadn't broken through to SSS-Class Awakened yet, but... this Spiritual Power value had already far exceeded that of an SSS-Class Awakened.

"Godzilla, time to wrap up."

Hiss!

Godzilla burped, satisfied, and shrunk its body size.

Luo Yu led it out of the restricted zone.

As soon as they reached the edge of the defensive line, he saw the Minister of National Defense pacing back and forth uneasily.

"Lieutenant Colonel Luo Yu!"

Seeing Luo Yu appear, the Minister of National Defense immediately walked up to greet him, forcing a smile onto his face, but... his eyes hid obvious nervousness and timidity.

"What's wrong?"

Luo Yu showed a look of confusion.

"It's like this..."

The Minister of National Defense hesitated for a few seconds, cold sweat beginning to form on his forehead: "There is something... I must tell you."

"Speak."

Luo Yu's expression became serious.

"The Eagle Country Captain... before you came to Eagle Country, he planted... twenty nuclear bombs in Central Death Valley."

After the Minister of National Defense finished this sentence, he was incredibly nervous, deathly afraid that Luo Yu would fly into a rage, which would be the end of it.

"Twenty nuclear bombs?"

Luo Yu was clearly stunned for a moment.

"Yes."

The Minister of National Defense wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly explained: "We only discovered it when we had just taken over the Super Eight-Man Squad. Those nuclear bombs were set to be triggered; they would explode if moved, and... they were buried near the nuclear waste storage area."

"..."

Luo Yu was silent for a few seconds.

He wasn't a fool; twenty nuclear bombs buried there were definitely not prepared for a Mutated Beast, but for him.

Seeing that Luo Yu was no longer speaking, the Minister of National Defense was extremely anxious.

What if Godzilla flew into a rage, what would they do? Not only would there be no one to handle the remaining two nuclear waste restricted zones, but even Eagle Country would likely suffer, to the point that the Minister of National Defense had cursed that idiot, the Eagle Country Captain, who knows how many times!

You're dead, and you still have to dig such a big hole for Eagle Country?

Even a Fifth-Order Abyssal Giant Beast was crushed like dry weeds and rotten wood; is Godzilla someone who can be killed by nuclear bombs? Even if you killed Luo Yu, if Godzilla got angry, Eagle Country would be completely finished.

No, all of humanity would be finished.

No one would be able to resist the Abyssal Giant Beast anymore.

Perhaps, Godzilla would even turn around and help the Abyssal Giant Beast.

"Hehe!!"

After a long time, Luo Yu said in an indifferent tone: "So the Eagle Country Captain wanted to blow me up?"

"No, no, no."

The Minister of National Defense waved his hands quickly and said in a trembling tone: "The President said that this was entirely the personal behavior of that idiot, the Eagle Country Captain. The government had no knowledge of it at all. We express our deepest apologies for this and are willing to pay one billion US dollars in compensation."

"One billion US dollars?"

"Yes, one billion US dollars."

The Minister of National Defense cautiously observed Luo Yu's expression.

Luo Yu rubbed his chin.

To be honest, he really didn't expect that the Eagle Country Captain could leave him a "surprise" even after death.

Twenty nuclear bombs.

If it were anyone else, they would probably have been caught off guard by the explosion.

Unfortunately... Godzilla treats nuclear bombs like snacks; the explosion wouldn't be of any use.

As for him, with Godzilla's strong protection, plus the body-guarding Spiritual Power value of nearly two hundred million erupting from his internal atomic reactor, it shouldn't be much of a problem.

"Fine."

Since they were so sensible about paying money, Luo Yu wasn't angry anymore: "I accept the one billion US dollars. As for those twenty nuclear bombs..."

"What do you mean?"

The Minister of National Defense asked nervously.

"I'll deal with them at the same time as the three SSS-Class Awakened Mutated Rattlesnakes."

Luo Yu said nonchalantly: "For Godzilla, nuclear bombs are just an extra meal."

"An... extra meal?"

The Minister of National Defense was completely stunned.

Nuclear bombs... as an extra meal? What kind of operation is this? Perhaps only Godzilla could say such an exaggerated thing.

"Yes, an extra meal."

Luo Yu glanced at Godzilla on his shoulder: "Godzilla, did you hear that? There are twenty nuclear bombs waiting for you to eat."

Hiss!

Godzilla flicked its tail in satisfaction.

Nuclear bombs? Good stuff!

"That... that's good."

"Whew!"

The Minister of National Defense heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't want to think too much about it; as long as Luo Yu wasn't angry, it was fine.

As for the nuclear bombs being eaten... anyway, those nuclear bombs were originally planted by the Eagle Country Captain on his own; if they explode, they explode, just consider it watching mushroom cloud fireworks.

"Right."

Luo Yu asked curiously: "When will the one billion US dollars arrive?"

"Ah!"

The Minister of National Defense didn't dare to hesitate and immediately replied: "It can be deposited into your account tonight."

"That's good."

Luo Yu nodded with satisfaction.

Although the Eagle Country Captain was a giant baby, this "surprise" actually sent him one billion US dollars.

It could be considered dying for a worthy cause.

...

On the other side, Eagle Country, The Hundred Palaces, the President's conference room.

Silence. A deathly silence.

The President sat in the main seat, his face ashen.

Beside the conference table, a dozen high-level officials lowered their heads, not daring to even breathe loudly.

"You..."

The President took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and roared: "You bunch of trash that belongs in a museum, the Eagle Country Captain planted twenty nuclear bombs in Central Death Valley, and you didn't even know?"

Bang!

Perhaps he was too angry; the President lost his composure and slammed his fist on the table.

"Mr. President..."

Seeing the President so angry, a high-ranking official spoke cautiously: "We really didn't know. The Eagle Country Captain's authority was too high; many things were decided by him privately."

"Decided privately?"

The President showed an indifferent expression and said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, the Eagle Country Captain was killed by Luo Yu. We took over the Super Eight Squad with lightning speed, found out in advance, and had the Minister of National Defense go tell Luo Yu in advance; otherwise, the consequences would have been serious. Now, it depends on Luo Yu's reaction."

"However..."

A high-ranking official suddenly spoke: "Can twenty nuclear bombs really kill Godzilla?"

"Are you dreaming?"

The President glared at him fiercely: "The current Godzilla can instantly kill a Fifth-Order Abyssal Giant Beast; twenty nuclear bombs simply cannot kill it."

"And..."

Speaking of this, the President's tone became serious: "Even if it could be killed, we cannot do so for the time being."

"Why?"

The high-ranking official looked puzzled.

"Because Godzilla is the hope of all humanity."

The President stood up and looked around: "Without Godzilla, the global nuclear waste problem cannot be solved; Mutated Beast will become stronger and stronger, and Abyssal Giant Beast will become more and more numerous. By then, humanity will truly be finished."

"Therefore... no matter what, we cannot let anything happen to Godzilla, and even less can we let Luo Yu get angry."

Just after he finished speaking, a video call from the Minister of National Defense came in. The President didn't pay attention to anything else and answered it cleanly and neatly.

"Mr. President, Luo Yu has agreed."

"Really?"

The President looked at the Minister of National Defense on the video call, a look of relief appearing on his face.

"Yes, Mr. President."

The Minister of National Defense took a deep breath and reported: "Lieutenant Colonel Luo Yu said that those twenty nuclear bombs are just an extra meal for Godzilla, so it doesn't matter even if they explode."

"An extra meal..."

The President's mouth twitched.

This statement is truly... domineering and violent.

"That's good."

The President ordered: "Arrange it immediately; the one billion US dollars must be deposited tonight."

"Yes."

He hung up the communication.

The President sat back in his chair with relief, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

The Eagle Country Captain... this former superhero, in the end, left a big problem for Eagle Country.

Fortunately, Luo Yu did not pursue it.

Otherwise... the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Mr. President."

Just then, the secretary walked in: "The remaining seven members of the Super Eight Squad have been controlled, and all their assets have been frozen."

"Very good."

The President suddenly became energetic and ordered: "Tell them that if they want to regain their freedom, they must honestly cooperate with the government and rebuild the Eagle Country Superhero League."

"Understood."

The secretary turned and left.

The President sat back in his chair, picked up a document, and distributed it to every high-ranking official, indicating that the meeting would continue.

If anyone were here, they would discover that this document was the latest evaluation report on Luo Yu and Godzilla.

【 Luo Yu: SS-Class Awakened, actual combat power exceeds Peak SSS-Rank 】

【 Godzilla: combat power evaluation exceeds Fifth-Order Abyssal Giant Beast 】

【 Comprehensive threat level: unable to evaluate 】

【 Recommendation: win over with full force, absolutely must not become enemies 】
