“Master Shui, I admit, Du Gang is quite formidable, being able to escape from the giant tiger’s attack, but asking him to kill the giant tiger is a bit too difficult for him, don’t you think?”

Li Youcai found it hard to accept what Zhuge Shui had just said.

Wang Dezhen, however, was not quick to refute anything, rather he narrowed his eyes, quietly waiting.

He knew that Zhuge Shui must know some information that he had yet to reveal. It was a matter of whether he would reveal it now.

As the director of the city government office, Li Yi had perfected his ability to gauge others’ moods and intentions. He quickly understood Wang Dezhen’s silent hint and subtly relinquished his steadfast opinion, saying, “Master Shui, indeed it would be too much to ask Du Gang to hold off the beast. He’s still a child…. Sigh, it looks like we will have to resort to using nuclear bombs….”

Zhuge Shui might not have risen from the low ranks through bloody battles, but he’d experienced enough to quickly grasp their intentions.

However, he didn’t show any resistance, but rather opted to share the information he knew.

“There’s a reason why I highly esteem Du Gang!”

Seeing that he was about to divulge confidential information, everyone instantly became alert. They straightened up, pricking their ears to attentively listen to his narration.

What a bunch of old geezers!

Zhuge Shui sneered and began, “The story dates back to the former Soviet

Union in 1966…”

Soon, he had recounted the entire Kola Superdeep Borehole project carried out by the former Soviet Union, including the discovery of the giant buried within.

Everyone was enlightened.

“So, Du Gang is not actually a superpowered individual?”

“No wonder! Despite his size, he doesn’t eat much…”

However, Wang Dezhen wasn’t as optimistic and questioned, “Even if it’s confirmed that Du Gang has a connection with the giant, what good does it do? How can it ward off the giant tiger?”

Li Youcai and others nodded in agreement, “Indeed, even if he’s the descendant of that giant, he still needs to grow….”

Zhuge Shui merely smirked, and said, “Ever since we discovered Du Gang,

Commander Yao dispatched a specialized team to the abandoned Kola

Superdeep Borehole region to reactivate some of the equipment….”

“Do you know when we revisited the former Soviet Union territory?” The others glanced at each other before shaking their heads, “Which date was

Zhuge Shui responded with a sly smile, “In the early hours of July 9, we inadvertently observed Du Gang in battle against the bugs in Xingyuan County. After a series of simulation forecasts, on the same day, we sent people over to the former Soviet Union…

“July 11 is the day when you first met Du Gang… On the following day, not long after you handed over the ten thousand Red Crystals to him, Du Gang evolved!”

Li Youcai frowned, “Isn’t evolution normal? Doesn’t every superpowered individual evolve by swallowing crystals?”

Zhuge Shui shook his head and replied with a faint smile, “On the morning of July 12, we received news from the former Soviet Union that there was a reduction in the energy of the underground giant….”

“On the morning of July 13, you once again gave a large number of Red Crystals to Du Gang, and he evolved once more… and once again, the energy within the underground giant decreased substantially….”

“On the morning of July 14, which was just a short while ago, the same thing happened again!”

Wang Dezhen frowned, “How did you know about Du Gang’s situation on July

14

“Ahem!”

This cunning old man is indeed secretly communicating with the Arctic Circle.

Wang Dezhen felt a tingling sensation in his teeth and reluctantly said, “Fine, that’s not important. I want to know what’s the story with the energy within the giant?”

Zhuge Shui laughed, “Decades of research have revealed that although we haven’t been able to harm the giant underground, we’ve discovered something… Through specialized detection methods, we’ve found that there is a certain kind of energy in the giant’s body, and it’s an extremely high-level energy!”

Everyone looked puzzled, an extremely high-level energy?

Li Yi quickly asked, “Elder Shui, can you translate it?”

Zhuge Shui nodded, satisfied with his willingness to ask for an explanation, and explained with a smile, “A very high-level energy means the kind of energy that humans on Earth cannot exploit or control!”

A speechless silence fell over the crowd.

Zhuge Shui spoke again, “These things are not important. What’s important is that we have discovered that as long as Du Gang consumes the crystals here, a small portion of the energy within the underground giant will disappear…”

“So, we have concluded that Du Gang is somehow connected to the underground giant. We believe that the reason why he’s grown so large is not solely due to the crystals… You can imagine the crystals as the pivot, conveyor belt, activation code, recharge and so on. Yet, the real cause of his growth is the energy within the underground giant! ”

Wang Dezhen exclaimed in shock, “So, by consuming the crystals, Du Gang can establish a connection with the underground giant and gain its energy?”

Zhuge Shui nodded and showed an approving expression, “That’s right, as we currently understand, as long as we continue to feed Du Gang the crystals, he will keep growing..

“But if he absorbs all the energy from the giant, wouldn’t it be useless after

“Ha, by that time, he would be one hundred thousand meters tall, likely finding other ways to evolve…”

Once everyone confirmed Du Gang’s potential, they quickly abandoned the plan of using nuclear weapons and began to discuss how many crystals should be given to Du Gang.

Li Yi was the first to speak, “I propose to give him all available crystals, and let him evolve!”

He believed that since Du Gang had such potential to eventually reach a level of one hundred thousand meters, they should not fear and should keep feeding him!

“Not advisable!”

Li Youcai quickly stood up and disagreed, “If we support him unconditionally and rely on him, the cooperative relationship between us will deteriorate and the balance of power will tilt in his favor… In the short term, there might not be any issues, but in the long run, he could develop a mentality that our survival completely depends on him… Growing under such a mindset, he could become a dictator!”

This time, everyone agreed without any objections, “Indeed, we cannot let him instill such a thought!”contemporary romance

Human nature is the most unpredictable, yet the trajectory of human behavior can be traced!

People are experienced enough to analyze how terrifying it can be when a person’s thoughts go out of control, especially without any restraint…

“So, we should provide Du Gang with crystals as a form of compensation. He will take care of the giant tiger, and in return, we will give him crystals. Now, let’s discuss how much would be appropriate!”

Li Youcai nodded, “Indeed, we need to ensure that the amount of crystal we zive him is enouzh for him to defeat the ziant tizer.”

Liu Xingyu said, “First, we should see how many crystals we have left after deducting those needed daily!”

“Yes!”

Li Youcai continued, “Firstly, we must deduct the daily crystal requirement for the B Awakening Plan. We have completed a tenth of the plan and there are still so many people waiting for the tests. If we rashly stop supplying them with the crystals, it could result in mass decrease in intelligence. In such an emotional state, a rebellion should be expected..

Wang Dezhen nodded in agreement.

After obtaining the approval from the leader, Li Youcai’s lips curved up slightly in a defiant glimpse at Li Yi. Then he continued, “Next, we must deduct the crystals for the members of the pioneer team. These people, whether veterans or newcomers, are all superpowered now. We can’t treat them the same as before, otherwise, they will get dissenting ideas. Hence, we should not deduct their crystals!”

The pioneer team had the most superpowered members, comprising more than 70% of the superpowered beings in the camp.

If these people united, they could overthrow anything. If their mental balance was disrupted and some of them who deemed themselves the chosen ones initiated trouble, things would get serious.

Wang Dezhen nodded again, showing his agreement.

Li Youcai smiled, “So, after deducting the crystals for these two expenses, the remaining crystals can all be used as compensation…”

“How many crystals will be left after the deduction?”

“Including those in the warehouse about one hundred thousand Red

Crystals!”
