Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 346 Nuclear Weapons
The strong convective weather brought by the ice roar formed terrifying cloud masses that obscured the sky.

This cover, along with the extreme weather, provides favorable cover for seasonal planktonic organisms.

Despite the advanced equipment and instruments surrounding Dimo ​​City, as well as the modern defense system specifically designed for Martial Saints, it was still essentially "destroyed" by most of the natural disaster, rendering it almost ineffective.

When Ji Fuyou sensed a small number of drones again, he had already arrived in this forbidden area less than 100 kilometers from the center of Dimo ​​City.

He originally intended to leave directly, but in order to make his presence felt, he still piloted the dragon-patterned flying sword and shot the pursuing drone into the air, turning it into a dazzling firework once again.

Having done all that, he strode confidently into this forbidden, misty place.

There were indeed some Black Gold Empire personnel guarding the outer perimeter of the forbidden area, but Ji Fuyou arrived too quickly, and these people simply couldn't gather effectively...

Or perhaps they simply dare not gather effectively.

After making a show of trying to stop Ji Fuyou, they watched helplessly as he trespassed into this forbidden land of mist.

This forbidden area is not of a high level, and its internal space is only a few hundred kilometers long, with no connecting passages yet.

The reason why Demo City left this forbidden area was to provide a place for the royal family members who wanted to experience life in the mist to relax and have fun.

However, although the space inside the fog is not large, and the area visible to the outside is less than 30 kilometers, it would still take several nuclear bombs with a yield of tens of millions of tons to completely destroy it.

Several megaton-class nuclear bombs...

It would be better to leave them stranded in the middle of nowhere.

If it had been launched a hundred kilometers from the capital, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Even if so many nuclear bombs were deployed to destroy this forbidden area, it might not be enough to completely kill Ji Fuyou.

Therefore, the seasonal roaming creatures that have entered are basically safe.

Even the martial saints of the Black Gold Empire, upon learning this news, involuntarily halted their pursuit.

On the one hand, there's not much point in catching up.

Enter the mist, and you'll find a world where only the strong reign supreme.

on the other hand……

Even if they catch up and surround Ji Fuyou, what can they do?

Prince Lin Lun was swiftly and decisively killed by Ji Fuyou, and the Martial Saint and Yu Martial Saint on Yuan Lake were no match for Ji Fuyou either; surrounding them would only lead to their deaths.

Therefore, these martial saints who represent the high-ranking members of the Black Gold Empire's royal family have tacitly agreed that the Black Gold Empire must suffer this great loss and swallow this bitter pill.

Otherwise, if things really get out of hand, and Ji Fuyou returns to the Black Gold Empire's royal family and assassinates all the high-ranking members, wouldn't the Black Gold Empire come to a standstill?
This is the awe-inspiring presence of an unparalleled martial saint!

Similarly, it is also the most powerful impact of the extraordinary era on the existing technological system!

……

Tianjiling.

This is a forbidden area spanning two states.

Some of them are only a few hundred kilometers away from Tiandu City.

At this moment, Ji Fuyou's figure appeared directly outside Tianji Ridge.

As soon as he left Tianji Ridge, he made a phone call to let Fang Qiyun, Li Ao, and others know that he was safe.

Shortly after, a helicopter took off from the private airport outside Tianji Ridge, carrying Ji Fuyou, and headed straight for Tiandu City.

In just over an hour, Ji Fuyou's figure had already appeared on Yunding Mountain.

The speed of the process was astonishing.

As Ji Fuyou disembarked from the helicopter, he was surprised to find that not only Fang Qiyun and Li Ao were there to greet him, but also Song Lingxiao, who was in charge of the Fog Defense Department, and Zuo Chunqiu, who was in charge of the Overseas Support Department, were waiting on both sides.

He was slightly surprised to see the two of them.

After nodding and greeting Leo and Fang Qiyun, he asked directly, "What brings you here?"

As he spoke, something occurred to him, and he chuckled, "The Black Gold Empire wouldn't be thinking of starting a war with our Great Shang over this matter, would it?"

"They certainly don't have the guts."

Song Lingxiao quickly said, "The Black Gold Empire's royal family are all smart people. Even if they know that the person who attacked Dimo ​​City was Chairman, after witnessing your overwhelming strength and your ability to enter Dimo ​​City as if it were empty, they would never dare to cause any more trouble."

Ji Fuyou nodded.

It’s different in the past.

Ten years ago, hegemonism was already rampant in the international arena.

The four polar states bully other countries.

In other countries, large countries bully small countries.

If it weren't for the checks and balances among the four major world powers, with none able to do anything to the others, the battle for global hegemony would have already begun.

Even for the Northern United Nations, which was being targeted by the Griffin Republic at the time, the world war had already begun, but the flames of war had not spread to the Great Merchant Federation, so the Great Merchants did not feel it deeply.

If this was the case ten years ago, how much more so now that the extraordinary era has arrived.

A top-tier powerhouse who possesses immense strength holds the power of life and death over any weakling.

"Chairman... there was a hailstorm in Demo City, the capital of the Black Gold Empire, not long ago..."

Zuo Chunqiu, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but ask.

Ji Fuyou glanced at him, and then seemed to realize something.

He then immediately admitted, "I did it."

Upon hearing this, not only the two martial saints, Zuo Chunqiu and Song Lingxiao, but even Fang Qiyun, Li Ao, and others couldn't help but shrink their eyes in shock.

Although they knew that spiritual saints possessed the power to alter celestial phenomena.

At the recent Supreme Conference, Ji Fuyou also demonstrated his ability to conjure fireballs by hand.

but……

Making a fireball by hand is one thing, but Ji Fuyou's instigation of a storm that covered most of Dimo ​​City and caused Dimo ​​City to suffer from extreme weather such as hail is another matter entirely.

According to observations, the hail and the cloud of hail covered a maximum area of ​​600 square kilometers!

It's important to know that the combined area of ​​most megacities in the world is only around 1000 square kilometers.

In a city, the majority of the population lives within the urban area. Although the hailstorm didn't cause too many casualties in Demo City, but...

At that time, the main purpose of Ji Fuyou in causing the clouds to cover Dimo ​​City was to prevent attacks from drones, armed helicopters, and long-range missiles, and the primary objective was not to target the area of ​​damage.

Who can guarantee that this is the limit of Ji Fuyou's power?

What if the hail were replaced by flames...?

If the entire 600-square-kilometer urban area were set ablaze, it would be a true inferno!

It is in no way inferior to high-yield nuclear weapons.

The key point is that nuclear weapon launches have a wide variety of characteristics.

They are easily detected once they take off.

Once discovered, there is a slight chance that it can be defended against.

but……

How insignificant is the goal of a martial saint?

How was it discovered?

How do I lock it?

How to maintain checks and balances?

There is no way, not at all!

"A spiritual saint! A spiritual saint! This is the power of a spiritual saint!"

Song Lingxiao took a deep breath.

The exclamations were trembling slightly.

"A humanoid nuclear bomb, truly deserving of the name!"

Zuo Chunqiu couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Fang Qiyun and Li Ao were also looking at Ji Fuyou.

Fang Qiyun was somewhat better off, having unparalleled trust in Ji Fuyou and firmly believing that there was nothing in this world that he could not do.

But Leo...

It is unimaginable that humanity would one day be able to unleash power comparable to nuclear weapons.

especially……

The extraordinary era has only been around for a few short years!
If we wait another five, ten, fifteen, or even fifty years...

To what extent will this extraordinary era unfold!?

Just how powerful must a top-tier superhuman like Ji Fuyou be?

Humans can withstand nuclear explosions!?

Traveling the universe in physical form!?

still is……

Like the star-devouring monster Ji Fuyou once described, destroying planets!?

"It seems this matter has had a significant impact. Is there any international opinion on it?"

Ji Fuyou asked a question.

He felt that he had underestimated the deterrent power of the Ice Roar.

"No."

Leo shook his head.

He then added, "But there was no reaction, which is the biggest reaction. There's a saying, 'silent as a cicada in winter,' which I think is very applicable to the current situation."

Ji Fuyou smiled and did not deny the statement.

With this battle, he truly established his ability to fight against an entire nation single-handedly.

Moreover, it's not a small or medium-sized country like the Kingdom of Kaya.

but……

No use.

Red Star is a civilization with nuclear weapons.

The existence of such a civilization could ensure the mutual destruction of the four poles of the world.

As long as he cannot resolve this issue, he will find it difficult to achieve true unification of Red Star.

but……

He thought of Lin Lun's matter and immediately said, "Since the deterrent effect of this war is greater than we imagined, then let's convene the other three countries... convene all countries in the world that have nuclear weapons, and hold a meeting."

He said in a deep voice, "The core of the meeting is related to contact with other worlds! We must ensure that even if someone comes into contact with other worlds in the future, we must be informed immediately. Otherwise, as their causal entanglement with other worlds deepens, all civilizations on Earth will have to pay the price for their actions."

Upon hearing this, Leo quickly understood what Ji Fuyou meant.

This is an attempt to monopolize the right of Red Star people to contact otherworldly civilizations.

but……

Considering the terrible consequences of rashly contacting civilizations from another world, he quickly responded: "We should first inform the world what the consequences of rashly contacting another world will be. Then, all countries must reach a consensus that contacting another world is to bring great disaster to Red Star and to be sinners against Red Star."

He looked up and said, "As long as we occupy this moral high ground and maintain our military advantage, what we do next will be much easier."

"Our actions are precisely to ensure that the Red Star Civilization is not prematurely involved in too many conflicts and entanglements with other worlds."

Fang Qiyun said, "We might be able to deal with the variables brought about by one or two otherworldly civilizations, but if we come into contact with more of them... who knows what kind of terrible crisis they are facing."

Ji Fuyou nodded: "Go and prepare. It may sound a bit selfish, but... we have to do this."

He said in a deep voice, "We must push relevant international organizations to legislate that unauthorized contact with other worlds is a crime against humanity, and everyone has the right to punish such individuals!"
