336: Chapter 328 Is it really explosive?Neo spent a full ten minutes reminiscing, plus asking Mr. Gao to confirm once more, before he was certain he wasn’t hallucinating.

But... why?

He was a bit at a loss.

According to the deductions made by himself and his think tank, there was a high probability that nuclear weapon could not pose a danger to transcendents.

It wasn’t a consideration of whether high temperatures and radiation could break through their defenses, but rather that given the movement speeds transcendents currently displayed, it was simply impossible to hit them.

A netizen had once posted a video showing Immortal Xu disappearing from China and appearing in Ying Country with only a half-hour interval in between.

And that was excluding the possibility that Immortal Xu had gone to handle other matters midway.

No one knew that instance was an illusion created by Zhang Mu using a puppet, so everyone accepted the video as fact.

With such terrifying speed, not to mention strange and unpredictable stealth methods, how could a missile track them?

Therefore, Neo didn’t think transcendents would take nuclear weapon seriously.

But the problem was, not taking them seriously was one thing; what was the deal with actively requesting to take a hit?

What if an accident happened?

Since humanity invented nuclear weapon, only a certain country that lived quite well had been hit by two; the nuclear weapon that were iterated and upgraded many times afterward had never been dropped on humans again.

Although their lethality had theoretical verification and experimental data, no one had data on a transcendent’s physique.

Who knew if a direct hit would be life-threatening? Even if it didn’t kill them, getting injured wouldn’t be good either!

Neo’s mouth hung open for a long while before he hesitantly said, ”Mr. Gao... may I ask why you want to... er, take a hit from a nuclear bomb?”

”I sustained some injuries during the battle with Dumbledore. Some things following a nuclear explosion might be helpful for healing.”

Neo regretted asking that extra question.

He was already bewildered enough, but now he was completely dumbfounded.

”Heal... helpful for healing?” The confusion in his eyes could not be hidden.

”You arrange the location and time, as soon as possible. Any problems?” Mr. Gao was unwilling to continue wasting words.

”Of course, I’ll get right on the arrangements!”

”Mhm. There will be a reward once it’s done.”

Mr. Gao didn’t say how to notify him once things were settled; he simply vanished on the spot.

Neo scratched his scalp, which had few hairs left, and instructed his assistant to call the patriarchs of the ally families.

Launching a nuclear bomb was no small matter; the location and time needed to be discussed, and he couldn’t make the decision alone.

Soon, the private cars of two old men drove into the villa.

”Sit down and let’s talk.” They walked into the meeting room, and just as they were about to ask why they had been called so urgently, Neo interrupted and gestured for them to sit.

Once they were seated, Neo briefly recounted the situation.

The two who heard it were also completely dazed; even if all their brain cells died, they couldn’t understand what connection radiation could have with healing injuries.

Unless it was a radiation monster from a sci-fi movie, but Mr. Gao wasn’t that kind of creature, was he?

Neo clapped his hands together to snap the two out of it: ”Don’t dwell on those things. Handling Mr. Gao’s task properly is the most important job right now.”

He then emphasized, ”The youth-restoring potion you desire—it will likely be possible after this matter is over.”

”Really?!” The two old men were incredibly excited, nearly failing to catch their breath; their secretaries hurriedly fed them medicine and water.

”Don’t get too excited, or you won’t live to see that day.”

After swallowing the medicine and gulping down several mouthfuls of water, the old man finally caught his breath. Ignoring Neo’s teasing, he panted, ”How specifically should we execute this?”

He was very anxious, which was understandable. After all, he was a twilight-years old man in his nineties with a host of physical ailments; he could kick the bucket at any time. It would be strange if he weren’t anxious.

Neo smiled: ”Let’s carry it out under the guise of a nuclear test.”
