I Can Destroy Planets with My Psychokinesis-Chapter 389: Grow bigger, shrink smaller
Chapter 389: Grow bigger, shrink smaller
Using the reverberating resonance of the Heart Image, Lu Li had determined the location of the gold, and he straightaway found the place.
He saw an enormously large underground warehouse stuffed with six containers.
All were twenty-foot containers, and upon opening one, they were full of gold bricks!
One container could hold 500 tons, meaning there were at least 3000 tons of gold!
The glittering treasure seemed to irresistibly appeal to a life’s instinctive fondness.
Bathed in the golden radiance, Lu Li’s mood also improved significantly.
He summoned a translucent dragon’s head and wings to scoop up all the containers, which then floated out of the air raid shelter’s door behind him.
The booming sound of heavy footsteps approached, as the Statue of Liberty and the puppets also arrived.
The goddess stared at the gold, revealing an instinctive intense craving.
"Go ahead and eat."
At Lu Li’s command, the Statue of Liberty hurried forward, tore open a container, and began gulping down the gold, crunching noisily.
The absorption method differed from that of the Flying Swords but achieved the same effect.
As the entire container of gold was consumed, the Statue of Liberty began to emanate a golden light halo.
Given its significant size, 500 tons was still insufficient.
Fortunately, there was no shortage at the moment. Lu Li waved his hand to let it continue while also instructing the Flying Swords to take off for early warning.
The Statue of Liberty tore open the second container and, after finishing that one as well, it stood still, seemingly satisfied.
It appeared to be undergoing a transformation, and Lu Li was in no rush. He leisurely summoned three dragon heads, aimed at the air raid shelter.
This time, he didn’t use the "Dark Matter Breath," but instead fiercely increased the temperature of the vibrating particles, spraying roiling flames into the entrance to "sterilize" it.
After taking care of that, there was movement from the Statue of Liberty.
It looked entirely rejuvenated, emitting a lucent radiance light, with its torch now burning with divine and extraordinary golden flames.
But no matter how good the appearance, it was after all Fourth Grade, on par with the seven Flying Swords and Xiao Cha’s White Dragon Whip. Lu Li certainly did not lack such things.
Besides, he had already Manifested Saint, and his enemies were likely to be Great Grandmasters or True Monarchs like the Azure Dragon.
The capabilities of the Statue of Liberty seemed somewhat marginal; at best, it could serve as a meat shield.
Its appearance was so conspicuous that he wondered if there were native goddesses in the Otherworld. Wouldn’t taking it there be revealing?
While Lu Li was pondering how to arrange for this massive being, suddenly, a clanging noise sounded from inside the Statue of Liberty.
The next second, the 40-meter-tall metal giant unexpectedly began... to shrink?
"No, it’s getting smaller!"
Right before Lu Li’s eyes, the Statue of Liberty progressively reduced in size and within a few breaths, was merely two meters tall!
At such a height, with a piece of clothing to cover up, it would hardly be distinguished from a normal person, possessing great camouflage.
Lu Li clicked his tongue in wonder, "It actually has this function! It can enlarge again, can’t it?"
Upon hearing its master’s question, the Statue of Liberty exerted itself and, like an inflating balloon, expanded once more, clanging back to 40 meters tall!
Lu Li laughed: "Impressive indeed. In that case, it is quite practical."
The ability to switch between sizes was more portable and more discreet.
At that moment, Lu Li suddenly knew how to arrange for the Statue of Liberty—it was to be sent to Jessica!
As the intensity of the war between him and Star Alliance Country escalated, the opponent would become increasingly ruthless, and Jessica’s place absolutely required a strong bodyguard.
The Statue of Liberty was just the right fit!
Lu Li did not dawdle, and directly instructed the Statue of Liberty:
"You’ll take eight puppets and prepare to head to Jessica’s location."
Upon hearing her master’s order, the goddess promptly transformed into two meters in size, knelt on one knee, performing a formal salute, signifying her compliance.
Having been refined by human Wish Power for over a hundred years, its intelligence was definitely not low, which made it even more reassuring.
Lu Li’s gaze sharpened, and the light halo behind his head suddenly brightened, solidifying into the shape of an airplane! It enveloped the Statue of Liberty and the eight puppets within.
This airplane was formed by Spirit-activated Dark Matter, even more sturdy than a real airplane.
"Follow Jessica’s instructions and prioritize her safety above all else, go!"
As he gave his instructions, Lu Li summoned a dragon head that took the airplane into its mouth and then with a fierce blast, shot it like a "bomb" toward the southwest.
The airplane traveled at a speed of thousands of kilometers per hour, and once its kinetic energy was depleted, his spirit would ensure the plane continued to fly.
Using the two puppets by Jessica’s side as navigational markers, it should take about three to four hours to arrive.
Lu Li felt a bit relieved and then turned his curious gaze toward #0 and Ah Da,
"Wonderful changes occurred after the Statue of Liberty reached the Fourth Grade, so what about the two of you?"
There were still 38 Merit Golden Lotuses left, and since they were his loyal subjects, Lu Li was not stingy, immediately rewarding each of them with 10 lotuses.
The puppet’s small size meant that 10 lotuses were more than enough for them.
They had followed Lu Li through many battles in the north and the south, accumulating countless amounts of Wish Power, and were not far from advancing to the Fourth Grade.
As soon as the golden lotuses entered their bodies, #0 and Ah Da began to tremble violently, radiant light swirling and surging on their surface, nearly spilling over.
Soon after, they also transmitted feelings of "hunger."
There were still four entire containers of gold, certainly enough, and Lu Li gestured immediately.
The two puppets hastily tore into the metal, absorbing the gold.
They used the same method as the Flying Swords, staring at the gold with their pale blue pupils, drawing out large particles of gold that merged into their bodies, while the gold disintegrated into dust.
Given the puppets’ human-sized forms, Lu Li thought one container of gold would be enough.
But #0 and Ah Da quickly consumed one entire container and continued to transmit intense feelings of "hunger."
"Feel free to use as much as you need."
Lu Li was somewhat surprised but didn’t pay too much attention to it, and with a grand gesture allowed them to eat their fill.
#0 and Ah Da, without any further courtesy, each occupied a container... and started to gnaw at the gold bricks! Had their methods changed to be like the Statue of Liberty’s?
The world of cultivation was filled with endless possibilities. With Flying Swords on alert and quiet surroundings, Lu Li patiently waited.
As if they were on the same wavelength, his phone suddenly rang—it was a video call from Jessica!
A thought crossed his mind and he answered the call, and there appeared the delicate beauty of Little Yang Ma.
"Dear, I miss you so much~"
After all the earth-shattering things Lu Li had done, upon seeing him, the young woman had only this to say.
This was his most trusted person on Blue Star, and Lu Li, uncharacteristically gentle, said:
"I miss you too. Don’t worry, I’ll soon be able to remove the cancer cells, and then we can live worry-free."
"Cancer cells?"
"I think the Star Alliance Country is a scourge to civilization, and as part of it, I feel obligated to eradicate it."
"Dear, I support you~"
Jessica cheerily said, "I don’t have much fondness for that country either."
Distance created affection, and the true nature of the Star Alliance Country was all too clear to the nations of the Southern Continent.
Feeling the support and affirmation of his loved one, Lu Li laughed heartily and asked, "How are you doing?"
"I’m quite well, vacationing in a place with beautiful scenery~"
Jessica turned her device to show the beach and the sea behind her, truly picturesque.
Lu Li, no longer worried about exposing anything, said outright, "I’ve sent you a little gift, make sure to check for it."
"Alright~"
Jessica didn’t pay much heed, her attention focused solely on Lu Li, watching him intently as if she couldn’t get enough.
But the young woman knew that her lover was under a great deal of time pressure and stress.
Soon, she took the initiative, "You should get back to what you’re doing, I’ll hang up now."
Just then, there was some commotion from the puppets, and Lu Li said:
"Okay, be careful, and if anything comes up, contact me right away."
After ending the call, Lu Li looked over at the puppets and his expression immediately tightened: "Where’s my gold?"
All four containers of gold had been eaten up!
