Prehistoric Evolution: Squidward Becomes a Great Old One

Chapter 45 A Gift of a National Hero! The Only SSS-Rank Guardian Target for All Humanity

In Shanghai, the midday sky was originally clear and cloudless.

However, the moment Lei Dong stepped out of the Jiangjing Villa, the clouds above Shanghai seemed to be torn apart by an invisible giant hand!

He didn't go to the garage to get his car, nor did he pay any attention to the special agents disguised as sanitation workers and food deliverymen on the street in the distance.

Lei Dong casually glanced up at the sky and lightly touched the ground with his toes.

"boom!!"

With a terrifying sonic boom, the special agents outside the villa area felt a sharp pain in their eardrums, and a strong wind swept up a sky full of fallen leaves.

When they opened their eyes again, all that remained where Lei Dong had been standing was a shallow, regular-shaped pit.

In the sky, a faint blue afterimage, almost invisible to the naked eye, lingered.

It is hurtling straight toward the Shanghai Armory at a terrifying speed that surpasses that of a hypersonic missile!

"Report! Target—target has taken off! He broke the sound barrier without using any equipment!"

From the countermeasures bureau's communication channel came the observer's heart-wrenching screams of terror.

At this very moment, in the underground air defense command center of the Shanghai Military Zone, the highest-level combat readiness command center.

This place extends nearly 100 meters underground, and its top layer is covered with an ultra-thick layer of alloy and reinforced concrete capable of withstanding a nuclear attack.

The highest commander in Shanghai was sweating profusely during a holographic video call with Mr. Chen in Beijing, reporting the latest developments regarding the "Great Demon God" Lei Dong.

"Old Chen, Chu Hongyan's mission has completely failed. Lei Dong's counter-surveillance and protective instincts are extremely high. Should we—"

""

"Beep! Beep! Beep! Alarm! Highest level air raid siren!"

Before the commander could finish speaking, the entire underground command center was instantly enveloped in blinding red alarm lights.

On the screen of the super radar, a huge red dot represents extreme danger.

It is falling vertically from a great height in a manner that completely defies the laws of physics!

"Enemy attack?! Is it a Starsea Federation's bunker-buster nuclear missile?"

The air defense officer was so frightened that his voice cracked.

"It's not a missile! There's no heat radiation or thruster signal! Its size—it's only two meters tall! About the size of a person!"

The radar operator stared at the screen, his pupils contracting sharply.

"He didn't slow down! He's heading straight for our alloy dome!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

They didn't give anyone time to react at all.

The air-raid shelter's dome, which is said to be over ten meters thick and made of super-strong alloy and capable of withstanding a nuclear explosion of tens of millions of tons, emitted a piercing metallic tearing sound.

Amidst the horrified gazes of all the generals present, the ceiling was suddenly pierced through!

Countless huge pieces of concrete and twisted steel bars rained down like a storm!

However, those fragments, weighing several tons, were still ten meters above the ground.

It was as if it had crashed into an invisible wall of absolute sighing, and was instantly crushed into fine powder by the terrifying gravitational field, which then drifted to the ground.

The smoke and dust cleared.

A handsome young man dressed in pure cotton loungewear and even wearing casual plastic slippers.

With his hands in his pockets, he slowly descended from mid-air, looking rather annoyed.

He glanced around at the elite guards who were trembling and had drawn their pistols in fear, and waved his hand impatiently.

"Put away those fire sticks you used to startle things."

"If my wife hadn't insisted I come here to 'reason' with you, I wouldn't have bothered making this trip."

Lei Dong arrogantly walked to the center of the command hall and casually pulled over a pure steel executive chair to sit down.

He raised his head, his deep eyes locking onto the huge holographic projection screen in mid-air.

On the other side of the screen, Mr. Chen, far away in Beijing, was staring intently at the monster wearing slippers who had smashed through the nuclear bunker, his breath catching in his throat.

"Are you that old man Chen who sends people to loiter around my house every day?"

Lei Dong leaned casually back in his chair, his tone carrying the indifference of a superior towards an ant.

"My wife is still at home waiting for me to come back and make soup. I'm only giving you three minutes. Listen carefully to the rules I'm about to set."

The entire underground command center, along with the highest decision-making room in the capital, housed hundreds of powerful figures.

At this moment, there was complete silence; not even a whisper was heard.

"First."

Lei Dong raised a finger, his eyes instantly turning as cold as an abyss.

"I am a Yunxia person. In Earth Online, I can ensure the eternal peace of the Yunxia faction."

We'll trample those Western coalition forces underfoot and treat them like dogs.

This is my bargaining chip for you.

"second.",

He raised his second finger, "My bottom line is my wife and the child in her belly."

From this day forward, put away your utterly disgusting and vile temptations.

In my life, I do not allow any secret agents, cameras, or women like those wearing cheap perfume without my permission.

If this happens again, I'll uproot the entire Countermeasures Bureau building and throw it into the Pacific Ocean.

"Third, and most importantly."

Lei Dong suddenly stood up, and an extremely terrifying high-dimensional pressure directly followed the holographic signal.

It struck the hearts of everyone in the Beijing command center with a resounding thud!

My wife is pregnant.

The life she carries is one that incorporates the laws of higher dimensions.

Ordinary hospitals and living conditions are simply not good enough for my child!

"Since you want to cooperate with me, then show some sincerity of equal value."

I need the world's top medical team, the quietest environment for a safe pregnancy, and the purest food supplies!

"If my wife were to lose a single hair in real life, or be even slightly unhappy—"

Lei Dong's voice was deep and menacing, as if it came from hell, "I'm going to reboot this planet. Do you understand?"

There was no negotiation, no bargaining.

This is not an equal meeting at all; it is a one-sided declaration of law by the gods to mortals!

However, upon hearing this extremely arrogant declaration, Mr. Chen on the other side of the screen did not show any anger.

Instead, an extremely fanatical light burst forth from his eyes!

I'm not afraid of your high demands, I'm afraid of you having no desires or wants!

Lei Dong was willing to make conditions, wanting the best medical care and environment, which meant that he had completely accepted the support of the Yunxia government!

As long as his wife is protected, this thousand-meter-tall Titan will be Yunxia's most indestructible national nuclear weapon!

"I understand! I completely understand!"

Mr. Chen slammed his fist on the table in great excitement and immediately stood up straight.

With an extremely solemn, even almost reverent tone, he loudly announced: "Comrade Lei Dong! The Yunxia government unconditionally accepts all your conditions!"

Not only will we accept it, we will also give you the highest level of treatment, surpassing all expectations!

"Transmit this SSS-level top-secret order from my Supreme Command!"

Mr. Chen's voice resounded throughout the two command halls.

"From this moment forward, Comrade Lei Dong is hereby granted the highest honor in Yunxia: the title of 'Peerless Hero'!"

Their true identity is classified as a top state secret, and their authority is equivalent to that of the highest strategic command!

"Ms. Su Qinghan and her unborn child are hereby designated as the sole [SSS-level protected target] for all of humanity!"
