Chapter 1164: Reinforcements Arrive
Upon hearing Cruze say that the warheads which had created enormous mushroom clouds, completely covering Hades Island, shaking the entire island without stop, peeling up several layers of ground, and whipping the coast into fierce winds and towering waves were not nuclear weapons—and carried none of the radioactive threat nuclear weapons would leave behind—Bian finally relaxed a little.
Moreover, the two warheads were not particularly large. After all, each had only been carried by one of the three aircraft, and their yield had naturally been limited by the machines themselves. They would not have been enough to sink Hades Island outright, but the vast destructive power of the two missiles had still reduced countless buildings in DC Headquarters to rubble.
Looking at the devastation on the screen, Bian felt his heart sink slightly when he saw the chaotic, panicked retreat—people sitting inside vehicles while machines carried those vehicles away at high speed.
With nearly all of Hades Island turned into ruins, Bian ultimately chose silence. He said nothing more about Cruze ordering his subordinates to use such devastating weapons, tacitly accepting it. After all, Cruze could not be blamed. Meteorite III had suddenly produced several mass-produced Judicas, then produced several more shortly afterward. On average, it could manufacture one in just over a minute. Continuing to delay would not have been good for DC or Earth.

"Beep, beep, beep." A notification suddenly sounded in Cruze's cockpit. After glancing at the
