"How can you guarantee that the man named Lin Dong will definitely fall for it?"

General Daly's explanation of the Nuclear Winter program had greatly impressed Antoine.

He thought about it and discovered a very crucial problem.

Will Lin Dong necessarily enter the underground warehouse that they deliberately set up as part of the national strategy?

"Your Excellency, you have no idea about the character of Easterners."

Defense Minister Ludarin interjected:

"Actually, we didn't think of that at first either. It was CIA Director Galen who reminded the President."

"Garen?"

"Yes, if we're talking about people who have studied the ways of doing things in the East the most, Director Galen would be in the top three in the United States."

Ludarin added:

"Moreover, the CIA has far more intelligence than we do on the matter of dealing with Lin Dong."

“Even so, the Nuclear Winter Project was formulated by the United States, so why should we be the ones to complete it?” Antoine asked, puzzled.

"Your Excellency, isn't Lin Dong our enemy?" Daly retorted with some dissatisfaction.

"They are indeed enemies, but the price paid is far too high, isn't it?"

"How can you catch a wolf if you're unwilling to sacrifice your cubs?" Daly smiled. "Don't worry, no matter how great our losses are, we can make up for them in other ways."

What do you mean?

"The President has reached a consensus with the Glorious Society that as long as Lin Dong is dealt with, the Gaul Parliament will receive additional cooperation compensation from the Glorious Society for the next ten years."

"The Glorious Society? The Wall Street Glorious Society?" Antoine was startled again.

"That's right, to be precise, it's the omnipotent Radiant Society that controls 60% of the wealth on Earth!"

President Hilal took over the conversation:

"Now you understand, right? Why did we do this?"

"I understand now. So it was the Glorious Society that truly wanted Lin Dong dead."

"Our Gaul Kingdom is willing to sacrifice half of its wealth to help them deal with Lin Dong?"

Antoine was a conservative, and although he now knew the whole story, he still felt uneasy and quite unhappy.

The price that Gaul paid to help the United States—or, more precisely, the Glorious Society—was far too high.

"Ring ring... Ring ring..."

A sudden, urgent phone call interrupted the conversation of several important figures.

It's a blue telephone, a national security inside line!

Hileck reached out and grabbed the microphone.

After listening for a few minutes, the weariness on his slightly tired face vanished, and his expression immediately became extremely serious.

"Immediately seal off the entrances and exits of the Lozer underground base. Ignore the people inside and take over the surveillance footage!"

After Hilalek finished speaking, he put down the microphone, looked up, and instructed Daly, who was looking at him:

"General Daly, please turn on the monitor screen. The live feed from Lozer base will be available shortly."

"Received." Daly understood, stood up, and turned on the wartime monitoring screen on the office wall.

A series of clear surveillance images jumped out, densely packed together.

"These are surveillance images from the national strategic underground base in Lozer province."

Defense Minister Ludarin seemed to understand something, and a look of shock escaped his lips:

"Could it be that Lin Dong really entered the base?"

"Yes, the last convoy that left Paris has all entered the Lozel base tunnel. Given Lin Dong's usual style of doing things, he must have already sneaked into the base."

As he spoke, Hileck bent down, opened the safe under his desk, and took out a black combination lock box:

"As the current president of the Kingdom of Gaul, I now formally announce: the authorization to initiate the first-level nuclear explosion procedure."

"General Ludarin, you are the Minister of Defense. Please retrieve the nuclear detonation key you are in charge of. Let's activate it together."

Ludarin jumped to his feet and loudly replied, "Yes!"

....................................

The second floor of the No. 1 National Strategic Underground Warehouse in the mountainous region of Lozer Province.

Lin Dong stared intently at the two high-yield nuclear bombs under the floorboards, and suddenly felt a sense of unease.

He suddenly turned around, and the third eye between his eyebrows pierced through the underground rock, reaching the alloy door on the first floor.

For some unknown reason, the heavy alloy door began to slowly close.

The trucks outside the gate, which had not yet finished unloading their cargo, seemed to have suddenly received an emergency order, and they rushed to restart their engines and head out of the tunnel.

"Holy crap, we've fallen for their trap!"

Lin Dong cursed inwardly.

The alloy gate is estimated to close within 10 seconds.

Given Lin Dong's current situation, it would take him less than 10 seconds to take the elevator from the second floor back to the first floor, and then take the elevator from the first floor to the main entrance.

It's not a matter of distance, but rather that it takes him time to take the elevator.

"drop!"

"drop!"

His ears, far more sensitive than those of ordinary people, heard two faint beeps indicating the start of the timer.

Lin Dong scanned the area with his X-ray vision and saw two nuclear bombs beneath the rock strata, their red timers ticking away.

The blood-red countdown numbers showed 59 seconds remaining.

"Holy crap! They actually dared to use a nuclear bomb on me?!"

Lin Dong was shocked.

With a touch, the three tactical nuclear missiles on the ground disappeared.

Despite the threat of a nuclear explosion, his mind remained relatively clear. He knew that it was impossible to blast through several meters of concrete and granite by hand in such a short time.

It's simply impossible to remove the two nuclear bombs from the rock within 59 seconds.

Your own portal has the ability to freeze time, but the problem is that you have to put things inside it first.

Without the slightest hesitation.

Lin Dong's figure flashed and disappeared into the air on the second floor.

He pushed his movement speed to the limit.

The square meter space was densely packed with all sorts of supplies.

Because the supplies in most areas are interconnected.

Therefore, Lin Dong could store these massive amounts of things into his space, and a large quantity could be obtained with just a touch, without taking much time.

Lin Dong took only 17 seconds to collect the three tactical nuclear missiles and everything on the second floor.

Then, he took the elevator to the first floor in 8 seconds.

Now that his whereabouts had been exposed, Lin Dong decided to stop being polite.

Even though the first floor, spanning a million square meters, isn't completely full, it still holds an astonishing amount of wonderful things.

Whether it's gold jewelry or antiques.

Whether they are from China, France, or other countries.

He swept them all into the space.

Lin Dong calculated the time; it took a total of 31 seconds to sweep up the entire million-square-meter area.

There are 3 seconds left until the nuclear bomb explodes.

It's no longer possible to take the elevator back to the tunnel surface.

At this point, the alloy gate above should be completely closed, and the switch to open the gate should even be manually locked.

Those forklift drivers and security soldiers who hadn't even had time to unload their goods and get out of the warehouse will be reduced to ashes in the underground nuclear explosion in 3 seconds.

There was no escape for anyone.
