Ming Yuwei, she came back from the future, or rather, she was reborn from the future.
And the time of her rebirth… was a few minutes before she left with An Ya, a rather awkward timing where she neither escaped nor crossed fate.
Before, in her eyes, Du Gang was just an unknown superpowered being who might have been formidable in the early days but was likely to die in some corner later on.
However, when she truly returned to South Harbour City and took control of everything, obtaining confidential intelligence, she then discovered.
Du Gang, he was not an obscure figure.
“Impossible, a single man defending a spatial channel, if such a person existed before my rebirth, his name would have definitely been widespread!”
With that thought, she quickly stood up and walked out.
Finding Rose, who was standing quietly at the door, she asked, “Had you heard the name Du Gang before I came to find you?”
Rose was startled for a moment, then smiled, “The War God Du Gang? I’ve heard of him. The people from Nanyuan said that he defended a spatial channel all by himself…”
“Understood. Where’s Fang Hao?”
Rose said, “Didn’t you tell him to stay in the nearby tent?”
Ming Yuwei frowned slightly, but said nothing, walking towards the nearby tent. Sure enough, Fang Hao was inside.
She cut straight to the point, “Du Gang, did you make his story public to the survivors here?”
Fang Hao was expressionless as he responded formally, “I did.”
“Why?”
“Because he is a human superpowered being. At this end of days, people need a hero, they need a spiritual support…”
Ming Yuwei fell silent for a while, then asked, “When did you make it public?”
Without hesitation, Fang Hao answered, “July 12th!”
Ming Yuwei walked out without uttering a word.
Rose immediately asked with concern, “Yuwei, what’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing!”
Ming Yuwei didn’t say much, she walked back to her room alone.
She began to mumble to herself, “I only took action on the 13th, I didn’t impact
South Harbour City prior to that, yet Du Gang’s situation was revealed on the
12th. But before my rebirth, I had never heard of him…”
Meng Meng, Rose, Bing Bing, Xiao Tong, these ladies were all quite famous before the rebirth, and that was why she gathered them early…
This suggests that there’s nothing wrong with her memory!
After pondering for a moment, Ming Yuwei finally had a clear enlightenment,
“So, was it because of my rebirth that caused some butterfly effects?”
Only this way could explain why the trajectories of An Ya, Du Gang, and others differed!
She shook her head, no longer dwelling on it.
Anyways, these people would all flee to the north, it had nothing to do with her. What she needed to do was to collect as much food as possible while these bugs were still asleep during the day in preparation for the imminent disaster…
On the morning of July 14, Du Gang hunted at the spatial channel all night, just like the previous night. His final harvest of crystals was roughly the same as the day before, with over 51,000 red crystals. The volume ultimately converted into source energy was over 110,000. Coupled with what was left over from before, it was enough to increase his height by twelve meters. Without hesitation, he quickly applied the source energy increase.
[Du Gang]
[Second Rank Ancient God]
[Battle Level: 35 meters]
Having done all this, he didn’t bother experimenting and simply went to sleep.
Unlike Du Gang, who slept during the day, the gathered people were hurriedly getting up to start their work as soon as day broke.
As before, the women continued to make jerky from insect meat, while the men worked on welding the cars.
None of them objected to these tasks.
Making jerky would ensure they wouldn’t go hungry in the future, while modifying the cars meant that once they resumed travelling, they would have a safe place to stay in during the night.
Joy was written all over their faces. Their views had changed: to be alive was happiness!
The command center.
In contrast to the enthusiastically working survivors outside, the atmosphere in the command center was somewhat heavy.
“Are we sure we’re going to use the strategic nuclear weapon?”
Li Yi’s expression was somewhat heavy, he still wasn’t too supportive of this idea.
“We must use it. If we don’t use it now, we won’t be able to move in a week. The bugs will be everywhere, even during the day. How can we go anywhere? The range covered by the Dawn Stone is too small, and it’s circular,”
At this point, Li Youcai no longer mocked him, instead he began to analyze the situation seriously.
Liu Xingyu frowned, “Could we use tactical nuclear weapons?”
Li Youcai quickly denied it, “Tactical nuclear weapons are too weak. If it doesn’t succeed in killing the giant tiger and causes it to flee towards the camp, we have three hundred thousand survivors here… what will we do then?”
A tactical nuclear weapon’s yield ranges from 1 ton to 20,000 tons, relatively the nuclear radiation would be less.
But strategic nuclear weapons have a yield of 20,000 tons or more. The historical “Little Boy” strategic nuclear missile was a 20,000-ton-class yield.
Liu Xingyu didn’t speak anymore. He didn’t dare take on this responsibility!
The temperatures created within the 200 meter range can reach up to 6000 degrees, enough to vaporize everything.
If it were just that, people wouldn’t be so grim.
It is well known that when a strategic nuclear weapon explodes, it will produce six different effects depending on the distance.
Keeping in mind a yield of 20,000 tons.
After the explosion, the core area will produce a high-temperature burn zone with a radius of 200 meters, capable of vaporizing anything.
This is followed by the heavy blast zone, with a damaging radius of 760 meters where all buildings within range would be destroyed.
The third layer would become a radiation zone, with a radiation radius of 1310 meters. Anyone within this range would receive at least 500 rems of radiation, which would be enough to kill them within a week.
The fourth layer is the first shockwave zone, caused by the rapid expansion of the fireball causing the air pressure to expand outwards, able to destroy buildings within a radius of 1720 meters.
The fifth layer is the thermal radiation zone, covering a radius of 2210 meters. Anyone within this range who saw the explosion would be instantly blinded, and if their skin was exposed to the air, it would be rapidly burned. Interestingly, within this range, you would not feel any pain because the thermal radiation would destroy your pain nerves.
The sixth layer is the second shockwave zone. It has the broadest coverage, reaching a radius of 4590 meters. Anyone within this range would be pierced by debris blown out from the other five zones.
Perhaps, after the nuclear explosion, the residents of Nanyuan City wouldn’t appear to be severely injured, but the constant spreading radiation would penetrate their bodies, significantly shortening the survivors’ lifespans under the strong radiation!
Wang Dezhen shook his head, turned to Zhuge Shui, and asked, “Mr. Shui, what do you think?”
Zhuge Shui, as always, began, “We have two options in front of us, to use nuclear weapons or not to. My suggestion is not to use nuclear weapons…”
Wang Dezhen nodded, “Okay, let’s do as Mr. Shui says and use the nuclear bombs…”
Huh?
He froze. Mr. Shui seemed to have deviated from the usual course today.
Zhuge Shui glared at him with ill-disguised anger, he flatly said, “My suggestion is not to use nuclear weapons!”
His words immediately provoked a strong objection from Li Youcai, “If we don’t use nuclear weapons what do we do? Stay here in Luo An City for the rest of our lives? Are thirty thousand people supposed to spend their entire lives in a place no bigger than a sesame seed, eat, drink, shit and piss, all in one place?”
Zhuge Shui gave a faint smile and slowly said five words, “We have the War
God!”
