Chapter 758: Known By AllTranslator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations
The United States Pacific Fleet was one of the few trumps that the United States had.
Only god knew how many trillions of dollars the United States had invested into the Pacific Fleet from the time it was formed.
It could be said that this naval fleet had allowed the United States to stand above Southeast Asia, as well as several tens of other small countries in the Indian Ocean. This naval fleet was what gave the United States the power to reign at the top of the world.
Yet, at present, this Pacific Fleet had just been instantly wiped out by Fang Xingjian. It was the equivalent of having chopped off one of the United States’ hands.
Many of the people in the government and the military forces, who were aware of this situation, gasped and sighed, feeling a great sense of grief as if they had lost their parents.
Meanwhile, in the hall of the manor at Beverly Hills, the United States ambassador was sitting on the ground. His countenance turned grim, and his eyes filled with despair. There was no longer any of the high spirits he had displayed earlier.
The ambassador was not the only one like this. Many of the extraordinary experts in the surroundings were all astonished and on tenterhooks.
Even the many extraordinary humans from the Douglas family, who were on Fang Xingjian’s side, were all terrified upon hearing that Fang Xingjian had crushed the Pacific Fleet with his hand.
Tom instantly seemed as if he had aged by ten years, and white hair started to grow out on his head.
With Fang Xingjian’s demonstration of his powers, Tom knew that he would not be able to defeat Fang Xingjian even if he still had his system in the future and even if he were given ten additional years to develop, let alone now when he no longer had his system.
‘Doesn’t this mean that I’ll never be able to get back my Wolf God system in my entire life?’
At the thought of this, Tom appeared even more dejected.
Tang Song, who had been tossed onto the ground by Fang Xingjian earlier, now had his back drenched in cold sweat.
Earlier on, Tang Song was still thinking that if Fang Xingjian were suppressed by the United States, he would still be able to get the Crimson Alliance to save him through the United States’ government using political means.
However, faced with Fang Xingjian’s display of prowess, Tang Song could not summon a single hint of hope in him.
Then Tang Song suddenly sat up, straightened his back, and then kowtowed while saying respectfully, “Mister Fang, please accept this kowtow from me. I’m willing to serve you as a slave for my life, offering you my services. I only implore you to show me benevolence and spare me for my earlier sin of disrespect.”
Elena looked at the groveling Tang Song, Tom who had his wits beaten out of him, and the United States ambassador who appeared to be in despair and was not saying a word.
She could not help but let out a breath. ‘Invincible… Invincible… Completely invincible and undefeatable… If I can reach this level in this lifetime, I would be able to die without any regrets!’
Meanwhile, the members of the upper echelons of the United States were all rendered speechless as well upon receiving the actual news.
Even Son of God Caesar, who was previously proclaimed to be the strongest existence on Earth, had never displayed battle prowess of such a degree.
As for the nuclear missiles, there was no one foolish enough to think of launching them anymore. What could nuclear missiles do to an existence that could crush and annihilate the Pacific Fleet together with its core battleships and nuclear submarines? The missiles would only plunge the people of Los Angeles into misery and suffering.
In the conference room of an underground structure, Secretary of Defense Edward sighed helplessly and said, “Let’s give up. Withdraw all the troops.
“Send people to save those who are still in the seas.
“As for Los Angeles… Just treat it as if nothing has happened…”
Hearing this, the countenances of the people present were all different. There were some who released mournful sighs and others who displayed expressions of terror and shock, fury, embarrassment…
A young high-ranking officer could not help but stand up and say, “We haven’t lost yet. There are still many weapons which we have yet to try. If we retreat like this, how are we going to keep up the prestige of the United States?”
