Chapter 548 - - 481 Duge’s Super Charm_1

—————✧✧✧✧—————

A dozen or so?

About that.

Duge pondered for a moment and said, “Nalan, it’s time to make the name of the National Strategic Defense Bureau resound with great renown.”

“What?” Nalan Li asked in confusion.

“Have you forgotten the original purpose of establishing the National Strategic Defense Bureau?” Duge said. “Our duty is to maintain world peace and supervise superheroes all over the world…”

“Yes, I know, but right now the National Defense Bureau simply can’t integrate, those people are too formidable, neither Luo Yan nor I can hold them down,” Nalan Li interrupted Duge, his voice somewhat anxious, “The National Defense Bureau is in complete chaos, nobody listens to Luo Yan anymore.”

“Wait for me,” Duge smiled and hung up the phone.

…

Respect is one thing, one’s own safety is another.

Duge is a man meant for great things; he would never allow any accidents to happen to himself.

Before leaving the science academy, Duge used light speed to strike everyone in the academy once, then, he gathered everyone together.

“Lin Hong, what are you trying to do?” Director Zhong’s face bore the red mark of a palm, his chest heaving, eyes filled with anger as he glared at Duge.

In recent days, the fuss caused by Alien Warriors meant Duge’s identity was no longer a secret.

But Duge had been modest and studious in the science academy, offered many valuable suggestions for the research on Hill civilization spaceships, and had contributed his own blood for genetic research, assisting the genetics department in completing numerous tests. His selfless behavior had won the favor of all the scientists.

Now, all that goodwill had been wiped out by a sudden slap.

Director Zhong, Green Star is now in turmoil; I must go out and help the National Defense Bureau stabilize the internal chaos," Duge said with a pained expression.

“…” Director Zhong was stunned.

“But what does that have to do with you hitting us?” Zheng Cheng asked angrily.

“The keyword for Alien Warrior is the product of a higher civilization. When words and deeds match the keyword, strength will increase. Clearly, this has touched the basic principles of the universe— or rather, the Principle.

If Green Star could thoroughly decode the secrets behind the keyword, then let alone the mere Hill civilization, even the civilization that seemed as divine as God Spirit and projected us into your planet, we could wrestle with them.”

Duge glanced at him, then turned his gaze back to the other scientists and said, “Don’t tell me you have never considered opposing that civilization? The Hill civilization’s invasion of Green Star was for survival, but that high and mighty civilization turned your planet into a playground. Aren’t you angry? If they could send a batch of Alien Warriors, they could send a second batch. Tell me, how many more times can Green Star endure such turmoil?”

All the scientists present fell into silence, their faces pale, and more were clenching their fists.

“Compared to the perilous state of Green Star, does my slap really matter?” Duge asked.

“…” A group of scientists.

“Lin Hong, are those two related?” Zheng Cheng furrowed his brows. “We’re scientists, not idiots.”

“Zheng Cheng, I’m about to go into battle,” Duge said.

“…” Zheng Cheng.

“My identity, as you all well know, but perhaps you don’t know what my keyword is?” Duge said with an apologetic smile. “Actually, my keyword has nothing to do with science, technology is just a hobby of mine.

My keyword is ‘sudden,’ which is about being unexpected, unanticipated. That’s why I used Sea Swallow to defeat Phantom, why I retired promptly after achieving success and chose to research Mecha.

That’s why, during our peaceful coexistence, I chose to attack you all. What I did was just to increase my power a little.”

Sudden was certainly sudden, but punching us to increase your strength was still somewhat unjustifiable…

Zheng Cheng wanted to refute.

But before he could speak, he was interrupted by Duge, who spoke assertively, “Only if my strength increases will I be able to defeat more Alien Warriors upon leaving, and bring back more samples for the science academy. With more samples, we may solve the mystery of the keyword, and once the keyword’s mystery is solved, Green Star’s entire combat ability will rise a notch. So, was enduring this beating worth it?”

Faced with this imposing assertion, Zheng Cheng’s mouth twitched violently for a few moments, suddenly finding himself unable to say a word.

“Director Zhong, Director Wang, whether it’s the Hill civilization or the Alien Warriors, they have brought unprecedented disaster to Green Star, but disaster often coexists with opportunity,” Duge looked around at everyone. “If we can withstand this, a glorious tomorrow awaits Green Star. Perhaps one day in the future, I might need all of you to rescue me!”

As he spoke.

He bowed deeply to the crowd, sincerely saying, “Wait for me. When I return to the science academy, I will bring back a wealth of materials and genetic samples. Then, if everyone still wants revenge, I will extend my face quietly and without complaint.

But for now, please, everyone, keep my secret. The Alien Warriors outside are still killing each other, too busy to notice the science academy. Let’s make sure the battle doesn’t reach here, for the science academy is Green Star’s hope, Green Star’s future…”

Director Zhong remained silent for a long while before looking at Duge and sighing, “Okay, then take care when you’re out there. The science academy will always wait for your return.”
