Formerly United States, Texas.
According to the specific coordinates provided by Divana, Lu Lu performed teleportation and brought the group to the top of a high-rise building in Texas.
This tall building is the Morgan Tower, the tallest building in Texas, and is now one of the strongholds of the International Superpower Association.
"Wow, this is my first time in America."
Narumi Nagumo excitedly lay on the edge of the parapet and looked down, but what she saw was not a beautiful city scenery. On the contrary, many places in the city were puffing smoke into the sky, and at the same time, alarm bells were ringing one after another. Sporadic gunshots were heard everywhere.
Apparently, there are chicken competitions going on in many parts of the city.
"It shouldn't be called America right now."
Devana corrected her title: "It should be called the Lone Star Republic now."
The United States has been torn apart by civil strife, and even several civil wars have broken out. Texas was the first place to establish an independent country, and the country's name was also the historical Lone Star Republic.
Because Mexicans make up the vast majority of people in this area, this group of immigrants who don't even speak English have no loyalty to the United States.
Xu Cheng only knew that the United States was in chaos, but he didn't expect that the country was already divided. He asked Devana, "Is this the result of your International Superpower Association?"
He thought that the person behind the Lone Star Republic was the Super Power Association.
"Of course not, we don't have any sexual interest in Jianguo."
Worried that Xu Cheng would misunderstand, Divana quickly explained: "I'm not mocking Japan, I'm saying that the association simply doesn't have the extra energy to build a country. We have already spent all our strength to deal with the Celestial Clan. The people who now rule this area It’s the Morgan family, they have a good relationship with our association, and this building was also donated by them.”
"Is it true that your association didn't help behind the scenes?"
Xu Chengcai did not believe that the Super Power Association was pure and flawless, otherwise how could the Lone Star Republic allow them to set up their headquarters here.
Deewana smiled awkwardly, then made a gesture of Korean national humiliation, and gestured to him: "I just helped a little bit, really only a little bit."
"Okay, I don't care what you are doing. Where is your president?"
"The president is not here. This place is not our headquarters."
"Why don't you just go to your headquarters?"
"Because we have several headquarters, and I don't know where the president is now. I can only come here first to ask about the whereabouts of the president, and then go there."
Under the leadership of Devana, the three of them left the roof of the building and entered the interior of the Morgan Building while chatting.
As if she was afraid that Xu Cheng would misunderstand him and think that the Super Power Association was neglecting him, Divana also specifically explained; "Because the Celestial Clan has always wanted to get rid of us, the president has to use this method of confidentiality. If she knows that you are coming, , I will definitely wait here in advance.”
Xu Cheng comforted him: "Don't be nervous. We have known each other for so long. Do you think I am that stingy person?"
Devana said sincerely: "No, I have never seen a more generous person than you."
She had been working with Xu Cheng for so long, but nothing good had been gained.
But she didn't dare to say these words, otherwise Xu Cheng would definitely use his fists to make her understand who was the one who contributed.
After entering the building, Devana led the two of them towards the office area, and met a young woman holding a folder.
"Devana?"
The woman pushed the study on the bridge of her nose with her hand and asked in surprise: "When did you come back?"
Her eyes fell on Xu Cheng and Nayun Narumi: "These two are..."
Devana did not explain Xu Cheng's identity, but said: "Contact the president quickly and tell her that the most distinguished guest of the association is here. Ask her where she is now?"
The association’s most distinguished guest?
The woman glanced at Xu Cheng curiously, but she was very sensible and did not ask anything. Instead, she nodded: "Okay, you go to the reception room and wait for a while. I will contact the president immediately."
After the woman left, Xu Cheng asked Divana, "Has your network been restored?"
"Just barely. Last month, the Morgan family got a satellite connection, and now we can barely make phone calls in the entire Lone Star Republic."
Devana quickly brought Xu Cheng and Nayun Narumi to the reception room.
Not long after, the woman just now came back and told Divana that the president already knew about it and she was preparing to come to greet her in person.
While speaking, the woman looked at Xu Cheng curiously. Who on earth was this person who could actually make the president come all the way from the headquarters to greet him.
Devana couldn't make her own decision, so she turned to look at Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng said it didn't matter, anyway, guests did as they pleased.
The matter was settled like that. It would take about an hour to wait for the president to arrive in Morgan Building.
Devana started busy. She knew that Xu Cheng didn't like drinking coffee, so she looked everywhere for tea that suited his appetite.
Although Xu Cheng asked Divana not to be busy and treated him as a friend, Divana still unconsciously regarded Xu Cheng as a big shot who must be served carefully and could not treat him with a normal heart.
】
Just a few minutes later, Nagumo Narumi, like a monkey, began to become unable to sit still.
She lay by the window, looking out at the city, yearning for the dream of a gunfight with 300 million people outside.
After watching for a while, she suddenly came to Xu Cheng's side, holding his hand: "Mogu, can I go out and take a look?"
Xu Cheng subconsciously wanted to refuse, but looking at Nanyun Narumi's big shining eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse and nodded: "Go ahead, keep in touch, don't run too far."
"Hey, it's better for you. If I were my sister, I would definitely not let me out."
As Nayun Narumi spoke, he jumped up and hugged Xu Cheng's head. Xu Cheng immediately raised his hand to cover his mouth.
But this time he didn't block it, and Nagumo Narumi took a sip on his forehead.
Then he teleported away with Lulu.
Xu Cheng touched his forehead and felt that Nayun Narumi had been doing this kind of intimate behavior with him more and more recently. He didn't know whether it was intentional or accidental.
But he couldn't say anything about it. There was no way to keep Nagumo Narumi at a certain distance from him.
Devana pretended not to see it, but her heart was filled with gossip.
She was curious about which of the many outstanding women around Xu Cheng had something to do with him, or whether they all had something to do with him. That would be so exciting.
Only about forty minutes had passed when Xu Cheng suddenly raised his head and looked at the door of the reception room.
Devana also heard a rush of footsteps and subconsciously stood up from her seat.
The door to the reception room was pushed open, and a man and a woman walked in from the outside.
The woman is about thirty years old, with a delicate appearance and capable temperament, while the man is an artistic young man with long hair, about forty years old.
"President!"
Devana immediately came up to him: "Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Xu."
The president of the Super Power Association walked over quickly with a spring-like smile, and took the initiative to extend his hand to Xu Cheng: "Hello, Mr. Xu, my name is Elsa. This is the first time we meet. I have known you for a long time."
She actually uses Chinese and can also use idioms. She has obviously practiced hard in private.
This should be because Divana had told her about Xu Cheng's nationality, so she acted like this to please her.
Xu Cheng smiled slightly and shook hands with the other party: "You're welcome."
Under his observation, the president's strength is probably at the level of a superpower. However, according to Devana, the president's abilities are more auxiliary and he is not very good at combat.
The artistic young man on the side looked at Xu Cheng with cold eyes. He didn't mean to shake hands. He just uttered a few words from his mouth: "Dennis."
"Hey Dennis, what's wrong with you?"
Devana was a little dissatisfied. She knew Dennis's character, but Xu Cheng was a guest she invited. How could he show off his face as soon as he came?
"Feel sorry."
Elsa explained to Xu Cheng on the side: "Dennis has this kind of character, and his genetic disease is nearing the end of the stage, so he has a bad temper."
"Elsa!"
Dennis shouted dissatisfiedly, but he didn't expect Elsa to reveal his details.
Elsa turned to look at him: "I know you have been troubled by this matter recently, but isn't it just to resolve this matter that we invited Mr. Xu here? Why do you have to show such an attitude in front of the guests?"
Dennis was silent for a few seconds, then reluctantly whispered: "I'm sorry."
"It's okay, I understand how you feel."
Xu Cheng said: "In fact, one of my friends also suffered from a genetic disease. Like you, he is a victim of human research."
Of course he would not say that he was ill, he could only pretend to be a friend.
The three of them were startled, and Devana suddenly understood. No wonder Xu Cheng suddenly came to visit the Super Power Association because of his friends.
None of them doubted that Xu Cheng was making friends out of thin air. After all, in their eyes, a person as powerful as Xu Cheng would definitely not have any diseases.
Elsa asked with concern: "Mr. Xu, how is your friend doing now? We also have a certain degree of understanding and research on genetic diseases. Maybe we can do some conservative treatment for him."
"The situation is okay, there won't be any major problems in a short period of time."
Xu Cheng didn't want to waste time and said straight to the point: "I have also searched for a lot of technical information on genetic diseases for him. I came here just to communicate with you and make progress together."
"Really? That would be great."
Elsa and Devana couldn't suppress their surprise. The Super Power Association has been researching genetic diseases for many years. The most important and difficult one is genetic technology, most of which are in the hands of the Celestials and difficult for them to obtain.
If Xu Cheng can come up with more genetic technology, their research can go further and save more lives.
Dennis on the side remained silent, as if he was not interested in the good news brought by Xu Cheng.
At the same time, his eyes kept looking at the watch on his wrist, as if he was checking the time.
"Mr. Dennis."
Suddenly, Xu Cheng turned to look at him: "What are you nervous about?"
Dennis was suddenly startled, raised his head, and asked, "What do you mean? Why am I nervous?"
"There's none?"
Xu Cheng raised his hand and pointed at his chest: "Then why did your heart rate suddenly start to surge?"
Elsa and Devana also turned to look at him: "Dennis, what's wrong with you?"
"I just wanted to ask you what's wrong. You said I was nervous for no reason."
"Dennis, Mr. Xu is not joking..."
"Then do you think I'm joking?"
As if losing his temper, Dennis raised his finger, pointed at Xu Cheng, and said loudly: "We have known each other for more than ten years. Do you believe him or me?"
On one side are comrades who have known each other for many years, and on the other side are strangers who just met today. Normal people know how to choose.
However, Dennis's sudden temper attitude was more like trying to cover up, making both Elsa and Devana feel something was wrong.
"I see."
Xu Cheng suddenly understood and crossed his arms: "No wonder you are nervous. If it were me, I would be nervous too. This is really a special surprise meeting gift."
Dennis shrank suddenly, but still sneered stiffly: "I don't understand what you are talking about."
Elsa and Devana also looked confused.
Xu Cheng pointed at the ceiling and explained to the two of them: "There is a nuclear bomb flying over. I think it may have something to do with him."
His electromagnetic induction range is three thousand kilometers, with himself as the center, showing a huge spherical shape, naturally including the sky, and can easily detect the outside of the atmosphere.
At this time, he could feel that an intercontinental missile was gliding rapidly from outside the atmosphere, flying towards this direction, and landing at the Morgan Tower, obviously aimed at them.
The reason why it was determined to be a nuclear bomb was because ordinary intercontinental missiles did not pose any threat to him, and there was still a slight possibility of a nuclear bomb.
"Dennis!"
Elsa reacted very quickly, raised her hand and grabbed Dennis' arm.
However, he missed the opportunity and Dennis's body turned into a shadow that resembled a lake and disappeared from the spot.
Xu Cheng said to Elsa who was frightened and angry: "Leave the top to me and the bottom to you. Is there any problem?"
"no problem!"
Elsa gritted her teeth: "I won't let him run away."
Only then did Xu Cheng turn into a bolt of lightning, break the window of the reception room and fly out.
Devana, who looked confused, finally realized at this moment: "President, Dennis..."
"We'll find out when we catch him."
Elsa suppressed the pain in her heart at the betrayal of her long-time comrade, and reached out to grab Divana's hand: "Come with me."
On the other side, Xu Cheng was already high in the sky, and electromagnetic induction firmly locked onto the intercontinental missile that had entered the atmosphere.
The flying speed of this intercontinental missile reached 9 kilometers per second. He was afraid that the lightning strike would not hit it, so he simply got closer and fired a thunder sword directly, hitting the falling intercontinental missile.
This place is very high from the ground, and ordinary nuclear bombs should not threaten the surface. But Xu Cheng doesn't know much about military affairs, so he doesn't know that the intercontinental missile in front of him is the American Trident II missile, which is loaded with 14 nuclear bombs with the highest yield. Far beyond his expectations.
The missile exploded the moment it was swallowed by the Thunder Fire Sword, producing an extremely bright light.
14 nuclear bombs were detonated instantly, forming a huge fireball like the sun in the sky. The air was shaken like a liquid, shaking with violent vibrations.
A burst of dazzling white light enveloped the city, illuminating the entire sky almost instantly, making it impossible to look directly.
There was a terrifying loud noise in the sky, and along with the roar of the explosion, huge shock waves began to spread in all directions, and soon spread to the ground, destroying all objects encountered.
