Chapter 1591: Global Denuclearization

Lu Xun knew who "they" referred to.

In fact, when Lu Xun heard Yang Xiao say that there was no fixed frequency band, the same question arose in his heart... But he didn't know how to answer. How... could he answer?

Lu Xun was closest to them, but even he couldn't fully guess their thoughts. He couldn't go and question them. Even if he immediately turned back and went into the conference room to question them, he would probably only get a vague response...

Different positions, different goals, everything was intertwined, and it was already impossible to judge who was right and who was wrong. As the intermediary between the nation and the Nine Lords, Lu Xun was silent for a long time, and finally could only slowly spit out a sentence:

“I... don’t know.”

Yang Xiao on the other side of the phone said nothing.

Perhaps, when he asked this question, he already knew that Lu Xun couldn't give him an answer at all...

The fire was burning on the wreckage of the laboratory, and the charred smell of human corpses licking the flames filled Yang Xiao’s nasal cavity. That originally white and pure research coat was already stained with blood. He looked at everything devastated in front of him, and there was an unspeakable sadness in his heart.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered Dr. Wayne’s extremely complex expression when he was pinned to the wall by him and heard him say he came "for humanity."

But now he couldn't figure it out either. Was he the guardian of humanity... or a manipulated killing weapon?

The blood-stained white coat walked step by step on the ruins;

In the gray and hazy sky in the distance, the roar of countless fighter jets came faintly.

A nation’s anger and hostility, like a surging tide, whistled toward the white-clad figure on the ruins. Yang Xiao could clearly sense the existence of each of them, and could even hear the fear and abuse toward him in their communication channels...

Why he originally came no longer mattered. At this very moment, he had already become an enemy of the entire nation, an Eastern weapon.

Yang Xiao’s hand holding the phone tightened involuntarily...

“Old Lu...”

“I don’t want to be a tool for killing anymore.”

Lu Xun on the other side of the phone paused for a moment, and then calmly gave his response:

“Do what you want to do. I’ll handle the rest.”

“...Mm.”

Yang Xiao hung up the phone. He looked up calmly at the fighter jets whistling toward him. The struggle and pain in his eyes were gradually replaced by a touch of firmness.

He took a deep breath, and the next moment, his figure soared straight into the sky!

*Whoosh*—!!

The whistling sound of his body tearing through the sky echoed in the void.

His speed was too fast. Those fighter jets that had already locked their firepower on him lost their targets one after another, watching helplessly as an aurora rose into the sky, and were taken aback!

They thought the humanoid weapon was coming for them, but they soon realized they were wrong. Yang Xiao didn't seem to intend to fight them, but flew straight through the atmosphere... becoming an aurora star gradually leaving the Earth.

At the same time, the aurora in his pupils surged, and a force directly penetrated every terminal country through electrical signals!

……

Beneath the cold seawater.

Several huge black shadows silently lurking in the deep sea seemed to be out of control at this moment. The pitch-black cabin covers opened slowly, and missiles tore through the seawater one after another, rising straight upward!

“What’s going on?? No key was entered, why did the nuclear weapons launch on their own?!”

“Quick!! Report it immediately!!”

This sudden change completely dumbfounded the soldiers in the nuclear submarine. They tried to contact the upper levels like crazy, but they didn't realize that this was not an isolated case.

At this moment, no matter which country it was, whether it was nuclear weapons deployed on the seabed or on land, they were all controlled by someone, launching toward the sky in unison. After experiencing the global nuclear war, only a very small number of countries still had nuclear weapon reserves, and they were all specially hidden to be used as a backup...

But now, all concealment was gone. These most powerful weapons in human history were all out of human control, and in their astonished and panicked eyes, they turned into meteors, flying into the deep space of the universe!

“Dr. Lu!! Why were the nuclear weapons forcibly activated? What did Yang Xiao do?”

In the conference room, figures walked quickly to Lu Xun in the corridor outside and questioned him.

Lu Xun watched quietly as the "stars" leaped from the earth to the sky, and the white-clad figure "commanding the stars" on the other side of the ocean, the corners of his mouth rising slightly...

I don’t know how long it had been, but he finally spoke slowly:

“He is saving the future of humanity.”

Yang Xiao didn't choose to fight any side; he just flew into the sky silently and took away the ultimate weapons of human mutual destruction... On one hand, without nuclear weapons, the casualties of subsequent global wars would be reduced a lot, and the fewer the sacrifices, the greater the advantage humanity would have when encountering the tide of calamities in the future;

On the other hand, Yang Xiao needed to count how many countries in the world had secretly manufactured nuclear weapons with Otherworld Tail Wave effects.

Facts proved that there were not a few countries with this technology.

At this moment, there were only thirty-eight nuclear weapons left on Earth, nine of which carried Otherworld Tail Wave effects, capable of briefly opening Gray World channels... It was just that no one knew where in the Gray World these nuclear weapons would connect to after detonation.

Yang Xiao’s line of thinking was also simple. Since it was impossible to open the door at a fixed point, he would make up for it with quantity... The more Otherworld Tail Wave missiles detonated at the same time, the greater the probability of opening the door in the Bitter Flesh Turbid Forest, and the higher the chance of Director Chen and the others returning.

And in this process, there would inevitably be a large number of calamities trying to enter Earth through the channel. Once they really descended, humanity would be in chaos. So Yang Xiao chose to take these nuclear weapons and leave Earth, and when the time agreed upon with Chen Ling arrived, he would open the channel directly in the universe.

In this way, even if the vast majority of calamities came through the channel, they would be lost in the universe and unable to truly reach Earth. And with Lu Xun, they could be guided by starlight at any time to bring people back!

This was the best solution in a situation where they couldn't open the channel at a fixed point!

Auroras flowed around Yang Xiao, ensuring that he himself was isolated from the vacuum environment of the universe. As the atmosphere moved further and further away beneath his feet, the deep and boundless deep space of the universe gradually wrapped around his body...

One nuclear weapon after another followed his figure into the universe. The nuclear weapons without Otherworld Tail Waves were redeployed by Yang Xiao and scattered in low Earth orbit. If necessary in the future, Yang Xiao could control them at any time to fly back to the ground and cause strikes.

After doing all this, Yang Xiao continued to move forward into deep space with the nine nuclear weapons with Otherworld Tail Waves...

“Director Chen, we can only do this much...”

“Next, it’s up to you.”

Yang Xiao muttered to himself.
