Tsunami

Having won such a brilliant battle, it's certainly time for a proper celebration. Although the mess left by this attack will take a long time to clean up, at least for now, let's put all the painful memories behind us and rejoice in this victory.

Cui Man led the Special Response Department to Xiao He's island villa for a victory celebration banquet.

At this moment, there's no better way to celebrate than having a barbecue and drinking beer on the beach.

"Everyone did a great job this time!" Cui Man raised her beer and laughed. "Let's celebrate tonight, we won't leave until we're drunk! If we get drunk, we can just stay here tonight!"

"So, does that mean I won't ask for the opinions of Wanqing and me, the two masters?" Xiao He rolled his eyes and said.

"Hehe, honey." Ye Wanqing laughed happily, handing the beer to Xiao He, "I'll have a couple with you."

"Are you sure you can handle this? Drinking again..." Xiao He gently pinched her earlobe and frowned, "When you get drunk, be careful you don't do something shameless and then be too embarrassed to show your face to anyone afterwards?"

"What's the big deal? We've already got our marriage certificate anyway," Ye Wanqing said dismissively. "Of course we have to drink beer with barbecue. Don't spoil the fun at a time like this."

"Alright—" Xiao He sighed, then clinked glasses with Ye Wanqing with a worried expression before drinking it all in one gulp.

"How about some baijiu?" Li Zhengliang turned to Yue Feng beside him and asked with a smile. Yue Feng snorted and replied, "Of course! Men should drink baijiu, what's beer anyway?"

"Who the hell got drunk at the cocktail party last time..." Xiao He rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"To be honest, I didn't do much this time," Xie Haining said with a wry smile. "In fact, I even dragged things down."

"That's not entirely true," Xiao He replied, munching on a roasted chicken leg. "If it weren't for everyone's delaying efforts, we wouldn't have been able to minimize the losses. Because we had advance notice, our country suffered virtually no casualties this time."

As everyone ate and chatted, and after a few rounds of drinks, the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed and lively.

"Did you know? The prisoners in the jail actually defeated a Mutator this time!" Cui Man said with a smug smile, her voice trembling with excitement. "I heard that Yinglong sent him flying, and he just happened to land near the prison. Then the prisoners teamed up and defeated the Mutator. We were really lucky; even the heavens were on our side."

"But thinking about it carefully, I'm still a little scared..." Xia Yu muttered, covering her mouth. "What if we hadn't been beaten near the prison, but in the city? Wouldn't that have been dangerous?"

"No, I'll go and take care of it," Xiao He said with a smile, then patted Xia Yu's head. "You did a great job this time. I heard you defeated two Mutator by yourself, right? That's awesome."

"Hehe..." Xia Yu laughed happily, as if she had been waiting for this moment.

"Old Xiao!" Ye Wanqing suddenly hugged Xiao He's shoulder, muttering defiantly, "I want to touch it too!"

"She's already drunk... This girl is really something." Xiao He gently patted Ye Wanqing's head and sighed, "Alright, alright, sweetie? Do you want anything else to eat? I've seen you've been drinking without eating anything."

"Then, then I want your noodles..." Ye Wanqing said with a smile. Xiao He quickly fed her a piece of garlic lobster. "Have a big lobster! We just caught it when we dived into the sea! It's super fresh! Is it delicious, baby?"

"Mmm!" Ye Wanqing nodded happily with a smile, and Xiao He immediately wiped his sweat. "These drunkards..."

After a while, the crowd gradually quieted down, and the drunkards turned and went inside, collapsing to sleep.

Now only Xiao He and Xie Haining were left to clean up the mess. However, Xiao He's Seaside Villa was one of the most advanced in the world, with fully automated robotic vacuum cleaners, vacuum shredders, and dishwashers, so he could easily clean up the mess without having to do anything.

Next, he covered everyone present with blankets, greeted Xiao He Xie Haining, and then carried Ye Wanqing back to their room.

"You're such a troublesome Little Pufferfish," Xiao He said with a smile as he placed Ye Wanqing on the bed and covered her with a blanket.

"She's your wife, you can't talk about her like that..." Ye Wanqing hugged his arm and rubbed her face against his.

"Yes..." Xiao He sighed with a wry smile, then shouted, "Open the ceiling."

So, the ceiling of their room was opened up. Of course, there was a layer of reinforced glass on top, so it didn't really become an open-air room, but this way they could see the island's night sky.

"So beautiful..." Ye Wanqing laughed, feeling dizzy. "Hehe, I really want to spend my whole life like this with Old Xiao."

"Yes, I promise." Xiao He gently pinched her little nose.

"Ouch!" Ye Wanqing covered her nose and rolled around beside him twice. "It's so itchy... sneeze!"

Xiao He was amused by her appearance and pulled her into his arms. "How can you be so cute?"

"Because I'm your wife! You love me, I'm the cutest! The cutest..." Ye Wanqing snuggled into his arms and acted coquettishly, then slowly calmed down and fell asleep beside him.

Xiao He couldn't bear to wake her, so he silently closed the ceiling.

The world has undergone an obvious change since this attack.

Despite the combined efforts of BBT and DDC to smear Yinglong, public goodwill towards Yinglong has skyrocketed. This has led to a backlash from international fans who have launched attacks against these media outlets, relentlessly criticizing them.

Thus, Yinglong truly became a "hero of the world".

However, this should not overshadow the efforts of other Mutant. Many Mutant demonstrated formidable strength and noble character during this attack. Several countries, including Y Country, successfully eliminated the Mutator themselves.

It is said that a priest and his followers played a significant role in the cleansing of the Mutator, and their power attracted more followers to their small cult.

Despite being protected, everyone remained somewhat uneasy, worrying about when Claude Moriarty's next attack would occur.

M Country, Wyoming.

This is the least populated continent in the M Country, with an average of only six people per square kilometer. Vast areas of undeveloped land lie idle, making it a paradise for Mutator.

"Don't forget, Mr. Yinglong, it's me who made you who you are today...it's me who made you a hero of this world. Remember that..." Claude smiled as he looked at the newspaper article about Yinglong in his hand. Then he turned around and looked at the more than twenty Mutator of various shapes standing behind him. "It's about time to start the next step of the plan."

But at this moment, Sate stepped forward from among the Mutator.

"Wait a minute." Sate's three heads trembled slightly. "Don't you have anything to say about the last failure?"

"Oh? What do you want me to say, Mr. Sate?" Claude smiled slightly.

"Because of your plan, we've lost over a hundred of our comrades!" Sate roared, pointing at Claude. "We've suffered over half our casualties! How are we supposed to fight Yinglong with our current numbers?!"

"That's right! It's all because of you!" "Your plan failed!" "We obeyed your orders, and you sent us to our deaths!" The Mutator present echoed each other, becoming restless and on the verge of rioting.

"Hey, that really hurts to hear you say that," Claude said with a pained expression. "The plan failed, isn't it because you were too weak? Tell me, forty-odd Mutator couldn't even block one punch from Mr. Yinglong, is that my fault? I trusted you deeply, believing you could carry out the mission I gave you, and what was the result?"

The Mutator present looked at each other in bewilderment, and Sate was also speechless.

Medusa then stepped forward and replied, "Yinglong is too strong, but he's the only one. The other Mutant are no match for us. But the problem is, how can we kill him?"

"Hehehe." Claude raised his index finger and chuckled, "To destroy a hero, you don't necessarily have to kill him."

"What do you plan to do?" a Mutator shrouded in black smoke asked, stepping forward. "How can we eliminate him without killing him?"

"There are a thousand people here," Claude said, raising his left hand. "I'll tell him I'm going to kill five hundred of them, but I'll let him choose which five hundred will live. Then I'll kill two hundred and fifty of those five hundred, and let him choose which two hundred and fifty will live. I just need to keep repeating this process until he completely breaks down... and that hero will die."

"Oh, that sounds wonderful..." the Mutator hidden in the black smoke laughed. "I like this wicked plan."

"My plan is flawless, but do you have the capability to execute it?" Claude glanced at the assembled Mutator and said coldly, "Don't disappoint me again."

"Yes!" the Mutator at the scene replied.

"But..." Gabo asked hesitantly, "Last time we almost sent out all our forces and still failed, what should we do this time?"

"The first step," Claude said with a smile, "Is to find a way to replace the lost men. You know what the most beautiful thing about evil is? It's that it's hidden in everyone's heart. Not everyone can be a hero, but everyone has the potential to be a villain; it just needs a catalyst..."

A week after the Mutator attacks ended, countries slowly recovered from the attacks, and people returned to their normal lives.

Because of Yinglong's fame, and because Xiao He has indeed joined the United Nations peacekeeping force, his mission scope has now expanded to the whole world.

One week after the attack.

That day, Xiao He and Ye Wanqing's parents were enjoying a leisurely vacation on the island.

The two women's mothers were sunbathing, while their fathers were fishing. Xiao He was with Ye Wanqing inside the house, Tuantuan with Tuantuan with a cat toy.

"If the world ends, let's bring everyone to live on the island," Ye Wanqing said with a smile, resting her chin on her hand.

"With me here, the world can't end," Xiao He replied. At this moment, Ye Wanqing was leaning on the windowsill looking outside, so her buttocks were sticking out in a particularly beautiful curve. Xiao He couldn't help but slap her.

Ye Wanqing turned her head to look at him and smiled, then pouted and gave him a "mua!" kiss.

Xiao He was about to retaliate when his phone vibrated, and he discovered it was Cui Man's number.

Seeing this, Xiao He knew he had a mission.

Sure enough, after the call connected, Cui Man anxiously urged, "Darling, a mission has arrived. A tsunami has struck Hawaii. Besides the local residents, there are now over 20,000 tourists from all over the world on the island, including more than 1,000 Dragon Country citizens. Hurry, the tsunami is approaching the island and will collide with it in about ten minutes."

"Received." Xiao He said, turning to Ye Wanqing and patting her head. "Are you ready?"

"Okay!" Ye Wanqing nodded vigorously. "I'll go create the event in the database now and then prepare to rename it."

Since joining the United Nations peacekeeping force, Ye Wanqing's abilities have been further enhanced and her scope of application has broadened.

Because she now has access to the United Nations database, which reaches a much larger population, she can increase Cognition Level of an event much faster. Basically, adding new information to the database only takes ten minutes to quickly build Cognition Level and achieve the desired effect of a name change. Therefore, Ye Wanqing can finally "fight side-by-side" with Xiao He.

Xiao He, on the other hand, changed his clothes as quickly as possible and went out to greet his parents.

"Dad, Mom, there's been a tsunami in Hawaii. I need to go there," Xiao He said, adjusting his tie.

"Oh, remember to bring a swimming ring," Xiao He's mother Ji Mingzhu, replied absentmindedly. Dai Na added, "And remember to bring back some local specialties."

"?" Xiao He looked completely bewildered, then shrugged and used the Dimensional Walker to arrive at the Hawaiian Islands.

At this moment, a wave nearly twenty meters high can indeed be seen approaching the Hawaiian Islands from afar. Judging from its speed, it will reach the Hawaii Island in at most ten minutes.

The island's residents and tourists were in complete chaos. Some were fleeing in all directions, trying to reach the highest point on the island, while others had given up and knelt down to pray. Several Helicopter flew around aimlessly in the air like headless flies. Despair had swallowed this paradise on earth.

"Sister Man, I've arrived," Xiao He said, pressing his earpiece. "How did this tsunami form?"

"According to the M Country Geological Research Center, it was caused by Earthquake of magnitude 8 or higher that occurred two kilometers off the coast," Cui Man explained. "Now there's not much time left. According to AI calculations, the tsunami will reach the Hawaii Island in fifteen minutes. The waves will be 17.5 meters high. Based on this, it's estimated that the entire Hawaiian Islands will be swallowed by this tsunami. Do you have any ideas?"

"Me? Of course not," Xiao He replied, "But my Wanqing will. I'll go and buy her some time."

As he spoke, Xiao He walked towards the waves, muttering to himself, "If only there were a group of Mutator here right now."

If it were during the previous Mutator invasion, Xiao He could have simply raised his physique to LV10 and then punched it, dispersing the wave. However, after the previous battle, he had consumed a lot of the power he had Erosion, and his physique was now only around LV6, which was insufficient to withstand this giant wave.

But that doesn't matter. He doesn't need to deal with the tsunami immediately; he just needs to buy some time.

Once Ye Wanqing created the event for the tsunami and renamed it, he would naturally gain the ability to fight against the tsunami. Therefore, Xiao He triggered Mechanical Modification and Vector Control, entering the "Accelerator" state.

"Goodness, this data is too much and too big." Xiao He frowned and raised his hands towards the waves.

He tried to modify the parameters of the waves, but there were simply too many data points affecting the waves, and they were constantly changing. Even with his Mechanical Modification "computer," it was difficult to calculate so many variables simultaneously. Therefore, he could only use the simplest and most direct method: reduce all the data at the same time.

However, reducing these vectors relies on Superpower, not simply modifying parameters in a computer. Therefore, it's impossible to directly turn the number one hundred million into zero, resulting in minimal effect.

The tsunami slowed down somewhat, but the towering waves continued to approach.

"Warning, core processing temperature too high! Warning, core processing temperature too high!" In just one minute, red warning text appeared in Xiao He's vision, and he had to abandon Vector Control.

"It's really too difficult to fight against natural disasters with human effort alone. The last time we defeated the Earthquake was purely by luck..." Xiao He frowned and thought to himself.

By this time, the tsunami was already a hundred meters away from him. Only at this distance could one truly appreciate how terrifying a natural disaster can be.

A wave nearly twenty meters high might not sound terrifying, but experiencing it firsthand reveals it to be nothing short of a water hell. The roar of the waves as they surge forward is like the howl of a giant beast. He felt so insignificant amidst this colossal surge.

"Let's try the old method..." Xiao He raised his hand, preparing to make contact with the tsunami and then use Kinetic Energy Absorption to absorb the kinetic energy inside the tsunami.

He held a sliver of hope: perhaps, like during the last Earthquake, a stagnant shockwave would form, blocking the tsunami. This might not completely stop the tsunami, but it would at least buy him some time.

However, he was clearly overthinking things. Although he did absorb some kinetic energy, the tsunami completely engulfed him. Xiao He felt as if he were standing in the middle of rush hour traffic, with vehicles constantly crashing into him.

Of course, this impact had no effect on Xiao He, so the huge wave eventually passed right through him and continued its journey toward the Hawaiian Islands behind him.

Xiao He was unharmed, but it was clear that trying to stop the tsunami by Kinetic Energy Absorption was not an option.

"Ugh, what bad luck! I've gotten myself soaked!" Xiao He shook the water off his hair in annoyance, then threw away the starfish on his shoulder and the crab on his leg, and chased after the tsunami.

"Wife, how much longer?" Xiao He asked, pressing a button on his earpiece.

Although ten minutes usually feels short, at moments like these, every minute feels like it's being counted down to the second.

Most importantly, the tsunami will reach the coast of the Hawaiian Islands in ten minutes.

"It's already been recorded in the database. Next, we just need to wait for the required Cognition Level to be reached before we can make changes. I've been monitoring the changes closely. Once the required Cognition Level is reached, it will be ready to be modified immediately," Ye Wanqing explained.

"Okay, I'll buy you some more time." Xiao He nodded and followed along the edge of the tsunami.

"How can we buy some time?" Xiao He behind the tsunami when he suddenly noticed a luxury cruise ship leisurely heading towards the port ahead. This sight infuriated Xiao He.

He sped up and flew over, then landed on the deck of the luxury cruise ship.

"Have you never died before?! What are you doing here instead of running?!" Xiao He scolded the people running around like headless flies on the deck, clearly annoyed.

"That's all the luxury cruise ship can go, bro! By the time we saw the tsunami, it was already too late!" The captain was so anxious he could barely speak English. He turned to look at the waves that were already almost upon him and grabbed Xiao He's hand, pleading, "Please think of something! Can you lift this cruise ship into the air?"

"Are you kidding me? A luxury cruise ship weighs over a million tons. Can one person lift that?!" Xiao He glared at him, then flew into the air, summoned a Perfect Cube, and expanded the Perfect Cube as much as possible.

However, the Perfect Cube's maximum length, width, and height are only about twenty meters, which is far from enough to enclose the entire luxury cruise ship. The waves were already pushing the cruise ship, causing it to tilt...

At this moment, an indescribably powerful force surged from Xiao He's body, and Xiao He knew that his ability had been triggered.

"Old Xiao! It's done!" Ye Wanqing replied in the earpiece, "Is it too late?"

"Perfect timing!" Xiao He said, first activating Time Stop, rushing to the stern of the cruise ship, then using his Psychokinesis to form two giant palms, slamming one palm down on the stern. "Let's go!"

Although he couldn't lift a million-ton luxury cruise ship, buoyancy meant that it didn't require that much force to make it move on the water.

The moment the shot was taken, the Time Stop effect ended, and the luxury cruise ship suddenly accelerated on the sea, racing against the giant waves of the tsunami at an angle, managing to narrowly avoid the center of the tsunami.

Although the ship was still affected by the tail end of the tsunami, causing it to start to turn, and the people on board would likely suffer violent rocking and collisions, at least they were not swallowed by the waves.

"Alright, now it's time to deal with you..." Xiao He muttered to himself, looking at the tsunami in front of him. At this moment, the waves were only a few thousand meters away from the Hawaii Island, and would make landfall in two or three minutes.

Xiao He landed on a beach directly facing the tsunami. The shore was in a mess, with abandoned parasols, swimming rings and beach chairs everywhere, but there was no one there.

Xiao He chuckled with a hint of self-deprecation, "Alas, it's a real shame that the most exciting part didn't have an audience."

"I'm watching," Ye Wanqing said with a sudden laugh.

"Ah, then let's see how amazing your husband is," Xiao He said, getting into a fighting stance.

The tsunami is approaching, only a few hundred meters away, and the overwhelming seawater brings a sense of despair.

Xiao He took a deep breath, concentrated all his strength, and threw out his right fist!

A fan-shaped impact spread out from the beach, instantly hollowing out the center of the approaching towering wave!

A single giant wave was broken into two smaller waves, which just grazed the edge of the Hawaii Island.

Because of the intense impact, the aftershocks of the waves have diminished considerably, dissipating completely before even reaching the other islands of the Hawaiian Islands. A fan-shaped trough has even been carved into the sea surface, and seawater is slowly filling that gap.

"Do you love me?" Xiao He asked with a smile, stretching his shoulders.

"We love you, we all love you," Cui Man teased at this moment.

Realizing that he and Ye Wanqing were now on a public channel instead of their own, Xiao He blushed slightly, but only for a second. He immediately brazenly said, "Oh, I love you both too."

At that moment, the entire Hawaii Island exploded, and everyone cheered. They called out Yinglong's name and threw everything they could, as if the whole island was holding some kind of celebration.

"Yinglong! Yinglong!" "Ah--! I love you!" "You are our hero!" The surrounding crowd cheered.

"Hmm, another peaceful and beautiful day." Xiao He crossed his arms and nodded with satisfaction.

Meanwhile, elsewhere, evil is stirring restlessly.

Claude Moriarty was sitting on the head of the Sphinx, basking in the sun, looking quite content.

"Just as I predicted, Yinglong was attracted by the tsunami." Claude said with a smile, then chatted with someone unseen. "Well done, as expected of you, Heather ... Yes, I'm praising you... No, don't be too greedy, it's not time yet."

After saying that, Claude patted his head and laughed, "Amanda, it's your turn to shine."

Claude's expression turned cold, then he smiled wickedly and adopted a particularly feminine posture, "Oh, is it finally my turn? I've been wanting to see Yinglong for so long, I'm madly in love with him."

Amanda paused, then frowned and said, "Tsk, don't interrupt my daydream, it's so annoying... So, men..."

After a moment of silence, Amanda said impatiently, "I know, I know, I'll give them the orders right away."

After saying that, Amanda pressed her hand to her forehead.

At this moment, a voice resounded in the hearts of the Mutator waiting in the world.

"Let's begin, my evil brethren. We lost many of our comrades in the last battle, but it doesn't matter. We can just replenish our forces, right?"

"Go, bring those hopeless bastards back to me from prison. Nobody cares about their disappearance."
