Chapter 85 - 85: 85: Accepting the Mission (Seeking
“Thud!”
“Thud!”
“Thud ! ”
Wang Dezhen and the others were standing outside Du Gang’s house, quietly waiting.
Everyone present was a superpowered being, capable of easily destroying this old-fashioned security door, yet no one did so.
Half a minute passed by, and no one came to open the door.
“Du Gang is deep in sleep…”
Wang Dezhen’s gaze shifted towards Chu Zixuan.
On Chu Zixuan’s shoulder, a lieutenant colonel’s insignia was clearly visible.
Based on his performance in the last mission, along with his relationship with Du Gang, after asking for his personal preference, Wang Dezhen appointed him to the Staff Department.
Chu Zixuan, aware of Wang Dezhen’s gaze, gave a slight nod.
Then, inside Du Gang’s room, the sound of the jingle drum rang out again…
“Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud…”
“Damn it… Chu Zixuan you… ”
Through the door, everyone could hear Du Gang’s enraged roars from being awakened.
Li Youcai appropriately knocked on the door again.
Soon, Du Gang came out, dressed in his pajamas.
He looked at the group of people at his door in confusion, “What is this about?”
“Can we come in and talk?”
Du Gang nodded and moved aside to let them in.
Upon entering, Zhuge Shui began to look around the room.
He noticed that the room was very clean. Clearly, Du Gang frequently cleaned, and in the center of the living room wall hung a photo of a middle-aged couple. He attempted to guess, these must be Du Gang’s parents.
From this, he could discern that Du Gang must not have lost control, and he secretly nodded his approval.
He came to Nanyuan for more than just guiding Du Gang but also to observe and scrutinize him.
If he found that he had anti-social personality or a trend of being unable to communicate and control, he would quickly report up.
By then, what awaited Du Gang could possibly be a nuclear cleansing…
“Du Gang, I’m sorry to have disturbed your rest, but we had no choice but to come to you…”
As soon as they entered the room and barely sat down, Wang Dezhen apologized.
Du Gang nodded. He also understood the general idea. These people consciously came to his door knowing he was asleep, which implied that there must be some important matter at hand.
Seeing that he didn’t show any signs of resistance, Wang Dezhen abandoned his alternative plan of letting Chu Zixuan speak first and personally said, “You know the news that the bugs will fully awaken in a week, and you have seen that huge tiger… Now, we have to cross that forest. If we allow that giant tiger to rush into the crowd, the casualties would be uncountable…
“We have previously launched missiles to attack the giant tiger, but it had limited effect…
“You want me to chase the giant tiger away?
Du Gang guessed their purpose. After seeing them nod, he asked, “How many
Crystals?”
He knew from his previous experience that Chu Zixuan and those true superpowered beings could only consume one crystal per minute, and those with less talent digested even slower. However, he was able to absorb several tens of thousands in a day, which was indeed unscientific and would draw suspicion.
Regardless, he certainly couldn’t suppress his own advancement over fear of others discovering his secret, could he?
To him, cooperating with the military was indeed a win-win scenario. As long as the military did not pry into his secret, he would not easily turn against them. After all, following the military would allow him to obtain more crystals, and his pace of evolution would be much faster!
He trusted his own strength more than he trusted emotions or someone else’s character.
As long as he became strong, no one would dare to pry into his secrets!
Similarly, he wanted to see if the military was sincere and wise enough.
“We have a Group Awakening B plan… And also, the crystals for the Pioneer
Team, besides these two necessary crystal expenditures, we have over 113,000 Red Crystals remaining. If you’re willing to help divert or drive away the giant tiger, all these Red Crystals will be yours!”
There was no beating around the bush, but a truthful statement. This sincerity was indeed very shrewd!
But Du Gang didn’t rashly agree. Instead, he calculated until he was assured that he could at least evolve to a battle level of more than 55 meters and be certain of not dying when confronting the giant tiger again. Only then did he nod his head and say, “Okay, but give me the crystals first!”
Soon, they all moved downstairs.
Twelve large iron boxes were neatly arranged.
“When will you depart?”
After opening it and confirming that it was filled with Red Crystals, Du Gang asked.
Wang Dezhen quickly replied, “The sooner the better…”
He looked at Du Gang and suggested, “How about this…we leave first and you finish packing?”
Du Gang understood what he meant, shook his head and chuckled, “I have a unique physique, I can absorb Red Crystals without limit!”
In the past two days of transactions, the military had already collected over a dozen large iron boxes. They probably had their suspicions.
But he didn’t want to reveal his secret, or slow down his evolution. Hence, he simply used an excuse about his unique physique.
He believed that no matter what, these people had to trust what he said!
Then, ignoring the others, he waved his hand and instantly absorbed all the crystals.
Pointing to the twelve empty boxes, he casually said, “Take these boxes back and pack up. Get ready to depart!”
The sight of the vanished crystals stunned everyone.
Regardless, they managed to maintain enough restraint and quickly agreed.
The reason the military brought Chu Zixuan along was also to help Du Gang figure out the location of the giant tiger. Du Gang understood this, and called Chu Zixuan to head towards the forest in the north with him.
“I will fly you there. Once the tiger is located, you can transform…”
He knew Du Gang obtained crystals, so he said this.
Du Gang didn’t resist, he got on his skateboard.
Soon, the two of them, one after the other, were standing on the skateboard, controlled by Chu Zixuan, flying towards the forest.
Du Gang, standing behind him, focused his attention on his mind.
[Remaining Source Energy: 250068 points]
Looking at the huge amount of Source Energy, a wave of joy surged through his heart. He could evolve again!
Quickly, he applied all the Source Energy to his body.
[Du Gang]
[Ancient God, Second Rank]
[Battle Level: 60 meters]
60 meters, equivalent to a 20-story building.
However, it should be noted that he isn’t a building, but a living being, a giant person who had proportionally enlarged. His length, width, height, surface area, volume, weight, density, etc., all increased. Either in terms of defensive power or offensive power, he reached a terrifying level.
The collapse of a twenty-story building would cause disaster-level damage in any city.
And the power Du Gang possessed was not merely the equivalent of a collapsing building.
He was a whole entity, he could harness all the power of his body, concentrate it to a point and unleash it.
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the explosion caused by his punch now was comparable to the power of a small nuclear bomb!
Just as he was feeling pleased with himself, Chu Zixuan slowly spoke, “Found
the giant tiger!”
