Chapter 439: 439. Nuclear Explosion
Besides replenishing his Spirit chanism and Listening to Thunder, Lu Li had another important purpose for his return this ti, which was to familiarize himself with his realm.
A strong individual must have a clear understanding of his or her “power.”
What kind of damage could an attack cause? Could it break through an enemy’s defense?
And how much damage could the defense withstand? What impact would different injuries have on combat effectiveness?
All these things needed to be understood so as not to make incorrect judgnts in a life-and-death struggle.
Therefore, the timing of the Star Alliance Country’s aircraft carrier battle group’s arrival was perfect!
At this mont, these uninvited test subjects, from hundreds of kiloters away, launched a barrage of missiles.
It was an opportunity for Lu Li to explore the limits of his own defensive power.
He landed on the sandy beach by the coast and beca motionless.
This abnormal scene caused quite a stir among the ranks of the Star Alliance, “What is the Evil Demon doing? Why isn’t he using his Flying Sword and lasers to counter the missiles?”
“He’s courting death! A ‘Fishhook’ missile loaded with a W80 nuclear warhead will hit in 20 seconds!”
“The Evil Demon will be reduced to ashes in the nuclear blast!”
That was what they said, but Lu Li’s refusal to evade surely ant he was confident, so a group of people watched the big screen nervously.
anwhile, the higher echelons of Blue Star’s nations were also monitoring the situation in the field through remote sensing satellites and drones launched from warships.
The world’s top scientists were among them; this would be an extraordinary confrontation between the Transcendent and technology.
And the ordinary public could only watch images captured by comrcial satellites.
Fortunately, with the developnt of technology, satellite imaging had matured, and the picture quality was barely acceptable.
Under the watchful eyes of all, a large number of missiles with fierce tail flas rushed towards Lu Li.
He didn’t just foolishly use his body to bear the brunt; first, he half-manifested a dragon’s wing to test the waters.
Various types and sizes of missiles collided with the dragon’s wing, creating huge explosions and fireballs.
These missiles numbered over 30, with the smallest ones comparable to a punch from soone in the Golden Body Realm.
Not to ntion the Tomahawk missiles carrying almost half a ton of explosives, which should have been able to break through the dragon’s wing defense in theory.
But amidst the successive earth-shattering booms, the dragon’s wing, faintly glowing with a pale golden light, stood unyielding!
That golden light was none other than the Immortal Will, which Lu Li had layered onto his Heart Image.
Dark matter was inherently much harder than steel, and now, with an Unbreakable Biological Force Field added to it, the defensive power was staggering!
Facing the intense and overwhelming bombardnt, this thin veil of golden light rely flickered a few tis.
Bathed in the explosive light, Lu Li comnted, “The energy isn’t insignificant, but the force is too dispersed; it’s all wasted.”
The destructive force of the explosions radiated in all directions, with at most only a third affecting Lu Li.
Even if the energy was the sa, the damage to a single target was far less than the focused punch of a Great Grandmaster.
But there were no absolutes; if the contained energy was sufficiently imnse, even if wasted, it could still annihilate the enemy.
At that mont, a Fishhook missile unobtrusively skimd across the sea’s surface, inconspicuous among the barrage.
Yet its warhead wasn’t filled with explosives but instead held an 80-centiter long, 30-centiter diater silver canister, resembling a baby bottle.
His Spirit imdiately sensed sothing wrong, and, through the Wedge Prefrontal Lobe, sent a strong warning to his brain.
Lu Li’s scalp tingled, and he imdiately looked over, spotting the nuclear missile.
“W80 nuclear warhead, equivalent to 150,000 tons, nuclear fireball radius 600 ters, Heavy Explosion radius 1200 ters.”
The relevant information about Star Alliance Country’s nuclear weapons had been diligently explained by Generation Xia Country netizens in the comnt section of Lu Li’s TikTok account.
He recognized it at a glance and even calculated the destructive power of the nuclear warhead, which was approximately 3 to 4 tis that of a single strike from the Liu Xuan Stele.
He should be able to withstand it, but since it was his first ti, he couldn’t be overly eager; there needed to be so foreplay.
So, Lu Li’s eyes shot out a laser, lting the nuclear bomb from half a kiloter away.
In doing so, he could avoid the epicenter of the nuclear explosion and test its power.
The nuclear bomb didn’t disappoint, instantly detonating.
150 kilotons of TNT equivalent might not sound like much.
But the very next mont, a sun appeared before Lu Li’s eyes!
Blinding, brilliant light burst forth suddenly, causing Lu Li’s eyes to sting. Instinctively, he closed his eyelids, but the Heavenly Eye still reflected the external scenery in his mind.
He saw a fusion reaction instantly create a gigantic orange fireball with a radius of 600 ters, the terrifying heat instantly vaporizing the beach and palm trees.
Lu Li stood at the edge of the nuclear fireball. His Immortal Will roared at full power, forming a golden force field that enveloped him.
As soon as the heat radiation approached, it was deflected.
“The Immortal Will’s thod of dealing with high temperatures is to isolate and deflect!”
Lu Li saw it very clearly; the biological force field around his body deflected the heat radiation just like a planet’s magnetic field deflects cosmic rays.
Of course, it was impossible to isolate it all; still, temperatures of over a thousand degrees scorched him, but not enough to harm the physique of a Great Grandmaster.
Lu Li only felt a bit of warmth on his skin, not a big deal… but a nuclear bomb possesses more than just heat!
In the next second, the intense heat and pressure from the nuclear fireball caused the air to expand rapidly, forming a massively powerful explosive wave.
He saw a Fiery Fla Storm raging forth, instantly turning the coastal rocks and cliffs into dust, as fragile as cookies.
Lu Li was swept up by the explosive wave, imdiately his ears rang with explosions, and his vision was filled with a blanket of orange-red air waves.
But no matter how the explosive wave tore at him, it could not breach the thin golden force field around Lu Li.
The “Immortal Will,” before reaching its limit, would block 100% of physical damage.
The two forces clashed crazily, the intense friction turning the air a fiery red, yet Lu Li remained completely unhard, even having the leisure to comnt:
“Like the explosion itself, most of the energy of the explosive wave is wasted, not posing much of a threat.”
Such earth-shattering shock waves may look spectacular, but in reality, their force is too chaotic, too spread out.
It’s like attacking a tank; no matter how fierce the explosion, it’s not as effective as an armor-piercing round.
After 10 seconds, the explosive wave had plowed through, sweeping tumultuously into the distance.
Beneath Lu Li’s feet was now a deep pit, dry as an empty reservoir, while before him a vast mushroom cloud slowly rose.
“Spectacular!”
The mushroom cloud spread slowly between heaven and earth, with Lu Li flying into the sky to admire this wonder.
His unhard appearance was captured by satellites, causing an uproar among the scientists in the command center:
“Damn it! The Evil Demon avoided the nuclear blast center! He’s unhard!”
“Look… he’s taunting us!”
On the large screen, Lu Li was seen beckoning with his finger towards the satellite cara, clearly indicating for them to bring it on.
He now had a good sense of the nuclear explosion’s power and next wanted to experience a full-power version.
Those present were not fools and imdiately realized Lu Li’s intent:
“The golden light on the Evil Demon is his newly acquired power! He’s using us for testing!”
“Excellent! He wants to test his superpower, so let’s satisfy him!”
General Levin’s eyes glead coldly as he said chillingly,
“Launch a nuclear missile with a one-gaton yield, fired singly, in a dueling stance!”
“That arrogant Evil Demon will definitely et it head-on, let him pay the price for his stupidity and ignorance!”
