81: Goryeo was bankrupted by Su Chen!

In Divine Summer, the internet instantly boiled over.

[I'm on my knees! Really on my knees! Hahaha!]

[Hahaha, you clowns from Goryeo, where's your arrogance from before? Didn't you say you were going to help the Americans manage us?]

[Heh, you haven't even fought yet, and you've already knelt before Lord Kraken. Fusang at least put up a decent resistance before.]

[So Tokyo in Fusang is gone... I actually think Goryeo is quite smart?]

[Hahaha, it's not certain what's going to happen yet, we have to see how Lord Kraken punishes them.]

[I'm looking forward to it... I hope he just wipes them all out like he did in Fusang before!]

Hearing this,

a group of Goryeo netizens were scared shitless.

[Divine Summer Daddies! We in Goryeo know we were wrong! From now on, we'll be your sons, no! Your grandsons! Please save us! Please persuade His Highness Kraken to leave quickly, I'm about to pee my pants...]

[Wuwuwu, yes, yes, Divine Summer Daddies, Goryeo has been a vassal state of Divine Summer since ancient times, and still is now, we Goryeo are your children! Although the children made mistakes before, you must give us a chance to correct ourselves!]

Under the terrified gaze of countless Goryeo people,

Su Chen's grand and cold voice slowly sounded:

"Want to live?"

"Feed me!"

These three simple words made Park Jeong-hwan, who was almost paralyzed with fear, grasp at them like a life raft.

He kowtowed frantically:

"Yes! Yes! Absolutely! Goryeo will use the strength of the entire nation to ensure Your Highness is well-fed!"

The surrounding Goryeo officials breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Su Chen's demand was so simple.

They all wiped the sweat from their foreheads and said thankfully,

"aishiba~ I was scared to death. I thought His Highness Kraken would make some harsh demands? I didn't expect it was just to eat his fill."

"That's right! Hahaha, even if His Highness Kraken is a bit big, how much can he eat? I estimate the meat reserves in Busan should be enough for him!"

"Hahaha, His Highness Kraken is truly magnanimous. He didn't demand war reparations or land cessions from us; he just purely wants to eat his fill."

However,

they would soon discover how naive and ridiculous this idea was.

The devouring began.

The first batch of cargo ships loaded with frozen meat approached, and the huge crane had just poured the frozen meat blocks into the sea.

Whoosh—!

The sea surface exploded suddenly!

A giant tentacle, covered in viscous black skin and jagged bone spurs along its edges, broke through the waves, like the claw of a demon god seizing food in mythology, precisely coiling around dozens of tons of meat blocks.

The suckers on the underside of the tentacle opened and closed, emitting a teeth-grinding sucking sound and the dull thud of muscle fibers being instantly crushed by terrifying force. The enormous meat blocks disappeared at a visible speed, swallowed into that bottomless, abyssal maw.

One tentacle was not satisfied,

and three other tentacles simultaneously rose, smashing into the transport fleet, coiling up more mountains of meat, and devouring them frantically.

One hour,

in just one hour,

all the meat reserves in the entire Busan Port were swept clean!

When the news came back, the high-ranking officials of Goryeo began to feel uneasy.

More cargo ships were urgently dispatched from major ports across the country, laden with national reserves, heading towards Busan, this enormous “dining table.”

Half a day... national meat reserves were in critical condition!

One day... national meat reserves were completely exhausted, and Goryeo began to slaughter breeding livestock, draining the pond to catch the fish!

Two days later,

Park Jeong-ho stood by the harbor,

watching ten tentacles, like demonic dragons, easily devour hundreds of thousands of tons of livestock.

He was completely dumbfounded.

He grabbed the almost collapsing logistics officer beside him, his voice hoarse: "How much meat reserve do we have left?!!!"

The logistics officer cried, his voice choked with sobs:

"It's gone! Mr. President! All the meat in the country is gone! What we're feeding now is being bought at exorbitant prices from the international market!"

The finance officer beside him looked at the wildly jumping deficits on his tablet,

and directly collapsed to the ground, screaming in despair:

"President, because we have been importing large quantities of meat at all costs, international meat prices have soared, our national treasury reserves have been completely depleted, and we have incurred enormous financial deficits. This time... our economy will regress by at least twenty years!!!"

"T-twenty years?!"

Park Jeong-hwan's vision went black, and he suddenly fell backward, hastily caught by the guards.

Before,

when he heard that Kraken's only demand was to eat his fill,

he had been smug, thinking that Goryeo would only have to pay a small price.

But he never expected,

that this was the truly severe punishment for Goryeo.

For two whole days,

Kraken in the sea was like a black hole, no matter how much meat Goryeo threw in, it could never satisfy his appetite.

Now,

Park Jeong-hwan had only one thought in his mind:

How does Divine Summer usually feed such a super glutton???

Inside Busan Port,

Su Chen had just finished devouring the newly arrived hundreds of thousands of tons of meat.

He let out a satisfied, deep hum that made the entire harbor's water surface tremble.

[Ding, devoured a large amount of livestock, meat, and fish... obtained 80,000 evolution points]

Hehe,

80,000 evolution points!

Adding what I saved before, I should be able to evolve now, right?

Su Chen's heart lit up with joy as he looked at the previous system broadcast.

[Devoured Thorned Giant Serpent venom, converted to evolution points—30,200]

[Devoured Thorned Giant Serpent—Naglfar (Tier 80), obtained evolution points—15,000 points]

[SSS-rank Talent, Ocean Dominator extracted Naglfar's genes. host obtained new Talent—Venom Control (C-rank)]

[Devoured—Rock Armored Giant Turtle (Tier 85), obtained evolution points—12,000 points]

Together, it's exactly over 140,000!

I can evolve now!

Perfect!

Suddenly,

Su Chen's expression froze.

That's not right!

Eating Naglfar before only gave 15,000 evolution points.

How come absorbing its venom gives 30,000 evolution points instead?

???

Naglfar's venom is more valuable than its flesh?

Thinking of this,

Su Chen was immediately filled with regret.

I... I seem to have killed the goose that laid the golden eggs.

No,

it was killing the snake for its meat.

If I had known that Big Long Worm's poison was so valuable,

I should have kept that Big Long Worm as a treasure and extracted its venom daily.

Eh?!

That's right!

After eating that Big Long Worm, I also gained C-rank Venom Control!

So, can I consume my own venom to gain evolution points?

Upon this thought,

Su Chen's heart immediately burned with excitement.

A large amount of potent venom immediately secreted from the sharp fangs in his mouth.

However,

as Su Chen swallowed it with anticipation,

it was like he had just swallowed a mouthful of his own saliva.

No change whatsoever... "Alright... looks like it won't work..."

Su Chen spread his tentacles, looking helpless.

It seems that next time I encounter a creature capable of producing potent venom, I must capture it.

Because the efficiency of converting venom into evolution points is far higher than that of flesh and blood.
