I impersonated God in America

"Given the power Washington has demonstrated, it can certainly continue to stir up huge waves. If it were to actually enter the Atlantic, it would be a nightmare lingering on our coastline."

"Can you imagine? Our fully loaded container ships will be attacked by this guy again and again, which will completely destroy our access to the outside world."

"Besides, have you ever thought that since it just had the ability to flood the entire city of Washington, it means it could do it again in any coastal city next time?"

"Miami, New York, Boston, no one can stop this water elemental giant."

The old general's words silenced everyone present.

Despite their extensive experience in commanding troops, the enemy they now face is completely beyond their worldview.

"I have a plan."

A voice broke the silence, and everyone instinctively looked toward the source of the sound.

James crossed his arms and rested them on his chin, revealing a resolute look in his eyes.

"Based on the Special Affairs Bureau's previous experience in fighting elemental enemies, since the water elemental giant's power source is the river, we might be able to intercept the source of its power."

Hearing James' confident voice, everyone sat up straight and asked with serious expressions, "For example?"

"We can sink the ship and build locks upstream to cut off his power source as much as possible. Finally, we can use firepower and super absorbent polymers or cooling agents to slow down his recovery and wear him down!"

James slowly got up and walked to the main screen.

As his assistant in the corner projected the image onto the screen, James pointed to a Y-shaped intersection downstream.

"The location is on the Mount Vernon section of the River!"

clap clap clap! ! !

Loud applause erupted at the entrance, and everyone looked over to see the president, who looked delighted.

"Well done, James! It really does take the expertise of the professionals!"

"How about it? Are you confident?"

"If it's a water elemental giant, it might be a bit tricky."

Will we win?

"We don't have a better solution, do we?"

Chapter Seventy-Eight: I am a giant wave sweeping across the world

"Just as we imagined."

James stared at the live aerial footage of the lower Potomac River on the main screen.

The semi-transparent outline of the water elemental giant can be clearly seen slowly moving south along the main channel.

"The target is currently located north of Mount Vernon. At the current speed, it will soon enter our designated target area."

"Everyone must stop him here."

"If we continue south, we'll reach the Chesapeake Bay, and we can't afford the consequences of that."

James held the walkie-talkie in his hand, his expression resolute.

"Guys, I won't say much more. This may be the most important battle of our lives. All firepower units, take note, begin the operation."

May God bless us and help us succeed.

Rumble.

On the shore, countless cannons, prepared in advance, spewed out cannonballs in unison, forming a dense barrage of fire that bombarded the water elemental giant before them.

Countless cannonballs slammed into the water elemental giant, tearing holes in its surface with their impact.

However, in just a few moments, the cavity was refilled by the surrounding water.

The analysts in the back row stared at the screen.

"Our attack just now clearly slowed their advance by at least half."

Inside the conference room, James, seeing that the attack was more effective than he had imagined, finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He was most grateful that the great demon had completed its collection mission and left; otherwise, if that guy had continued to use that spatial ability for ballistic obstruction, they couldn't imagine how they would have been able to act.

The port urgently mobilized cargo ships, large cruise ships, and abandoned naval transport ships that had been prepared in advance.

Clang.

The faucet was opened instantly.

Countless ships began to sink rapidly, disappearing into the water in an instant, forming an artificial steel reef dam as they sank to the bottom.

"Sir, according to our calculations, this will physically block more than half of the river channel."

"That's enough."

Everyone present knew that there was no time to block the entire river, but if they could block half of it, they could significantly slow down the enemy's progress.

They never intended to wipe them out in one fell swoop.

This is a war of attrition in the truest sense.

Immediately afterwards, above the water elemental giant, countless amounts of liquid nitrogen and other refrigerants began to rain down as if they were free.

Click.

The water elemental giant's body showed obvious signs of freezing due to the drastic temperature drop.

The speed visibly slowed down again, and a thin mist appeared on the surface of the body.

Rumble.

Immediately afterwards, the pre-programmed missile system began to continue bombing.

"Excellent! The target's recovery speed has slowed down again!"

"Keep bringing in refrigerant from the surrounding factories! It's time to show these old guys the power of modern technology!"

The positive news on the battlefield excited everyone in the room, making them instantly feel as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

Seeing the battle line advancing smoothly, James excitedly slammed his fist on the table.

"Continue to do this upstream and downstream, making sure to stop them in the river before they enter the Atlantic!"

James looked at the expressions on the faces of the people around him and felt a surge of joy.

It seems like after this is over, I'll most likely be transferred out of this awful place.

[Wuhu! This wretched place that gets blamed for everything, let whoever wants to come come.]

----------------

St. Mary's Church.

Lynn sensed the current state of the water elemental giant.

The water level has dropped below the warning line, and the sealing of the sunken ship at the mouth of the bay is working better than he expected.

He picked up his coffee cup and took a sip.

[The method of building locks by sinking ships is the fastest way to reduce water flow]

By reusing modern materials and exercising a degree of elemental restraint, the mobilization capabilities of modern states are indeed not to be underestimated.

"That's a really good problem-solving method."

He leaned back in his chair.

Countless wishes surged toward the front lines from the void.

Unfortunately, I was the one making this move.

-----------------

"Based on current consumption calculations, as long as we continue to cut off the water flow, coupled with continuous bombing..."

"If nothing unexpected happens, we can completely control that water elemental giant in this area within 48 hours, and then we can trap and beat him!"

"So, can we start thinking about post-disaster reconstruction now?"

"Actually, I think it's more important to quickly collect information on the location and number of deities worshipped by the primitive tribes that were destroyed during the previous westward expansion."

"Besides, have the remaining tribes considered how to deal with this?"

"..."

"Oh no! Everyone, look! What's that gray fog?"

"Wait, it looks like some kind of humanoid monster?!"

Just as everyone was still celebrating, a sudden sound drew everyone's attention back to the screen.

One after another, grayish-white figures emerged from the riverbed, densely filling the entire bay.

Some of the outlines still barely reveal the shape of the crest.

"Hmm, I think I know what these are now."

Even without being told, they could guess the identities of these gray-white figures.

The Nakochi Tank people, indigenous people living along the Potomac River.

As everyone had anticipated, the water elemental giant raised its arm.

Countless gray-white figures were drawn to it like magnets, merging into its translucent shell.

Immediately afterward, the water flow accelerated sharply beneath its feet.

Glug glug.

The stagnant water that had been sealed off in the bay by the sunken ship suddenly surged violently.

A colossal wave rose from the ground.

The giant wave seemed to blot out the sky, casting a blue shadow over the ground and creating a sense of oppression in the hearts of everyone in the conference room.

The water elemental giant straightened up and merged its entire body with the rapidly rising giant wave.

Perched atop the highest point of the giant wave, it's like surfing.

Rumble!

Under the terrifying impact, the shipwreck blocking the narrowest part of the bay was instantly shattered into pieces, and the steel cables snapped.

"Damn it, our defense has been completely breached!"

"Damn natives, even in death they won't let us rest in peace!!!"

"what?"

"Oh no! It's heading straight for Chesapeake Bay!"

Rumble!

It carries the water flow of the main channel downstream.

The concrete embankments along the coast shattered the moment the giant waves crashed into them.

The aftershocks of the waves spread out to both banks, uprooting sycamore trees and smashing them into the glass windows of shops along the street, tearing entire sections of the wooden boardwalk by the dock off their foundations and sweeping them into the waves.

As the target drew ever closer to the Atlantic Ocean.

Everyone in the conference room stood up instantly, looking at each other with fear in their eyes.

It should be noted that the previous slowdown of the enemy's speed was entirely due to the depletion of firepower.

Now, without any prior planning, are you expecting them to try and stop the giant waves?

"Damn it, this thing really went into the Atlantic Ocean."

"Can I inform my acquaintances to sell their shipping company stock?"

"Damn it, even in death they want revenge on us?!"

The defense minister frowned as he looked at the chaotic scene below, then ran over to the president's side.

“I think we can start by notifying all coastal cities to abandon remote areas, and then assign people specifically to find this guy’s location.”

"fxxk!"

The room was filled with a diverse array of people, and James looked utterly desperate.
