Chapter 018: Destroying the Wormhole
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第018章 摧毁虫洞
After the battle, Wang Bo took Diana to the Arima Onsen in Kobe to soak. Arima Onsen is one of the world's top ten most famous hot springs, and also the oldest hot spring in Japan, with a history of 1,400 years.
Wang Bo cast a small spell to conceal their true appearances, then swaggered into the hot spring and enjoyed a nice soak.
Two hours later, feeling refreshed, Wang Bo left the hot spring, changed into casual clothes, and sat down on a massage chair in the living room to relax.
Before long, Diana came out with a flushed face and sat down beside Wang Bo.
Wang Bo turned his head to look at her and asked, "After a fight and then a hot spring soak, doesn't it feel great?"
Diana replied off-topic, "How exactly did you train to become so strong?"
Wang Bo couldn't help but chuckle, "Still hung up on that?"
Diana didn't answer, staring straight at Wang Bo. It wasn't that she couldn't take a loss; she wanted to know what Wang Bo had experienced to become stronger than her, a demigod.
Wang Bo said, "The reason I'm so strong is that I have several different powers within me: Ripple Breathing, magic, Cosmo, and Nine Yang True Qi. Each suits me perfectly, so I became very powerful."
"I know magic, but what are Ripple Breathing, Nine Yang True Qi, and Cosmo?" Diana asked, puzzled.
Wang Bo had to briefly explain these things.
Diana said with some envy, "So you know so many things. No wonder you're so strong."
Wang Bo said, "Don't envy me. If you dig deep into your bloodline, you can become very strong too. You are Zeus's daughter, a natural demigod. When you grow into your power, your strength will be beyond imagination."
Diana asked, "Do you mean I'll definitely be able to beat you in the future?"
"Dream on."
Wang Bo waved his hand. The ceiling of the Man of Steel was too high; even Zeus might not be a match for Golden Superman, let alone a mere Diana.
Diana: ...
If she weren't no match for Wang Bo right now, she would really want to hang that annoying guy up and give him a good beating.
Doesn't he know how to talk?
...
After finishing their massage, the two returned to the stealth fighter. Shinonono Tabane saw them return and said, "Welcome back, Diana, Wang Bo."
Wang Bo pulled up a chair and sat down. "What are we having for dinner tonight?"
Shinonono Tabane said, "Put dinner aside for now. I just observed changes in the Pacific wormhole. If nothing unexpected happens, a new kaiju will appear in a few hours."
Diana looked at Wang Bo.
Wang Bo stood up and stretched. "Alright, I'll go take care of it now." The sooner he destroyed the wormhole, the sooner he could send Diana and Shinonono Tabane away and leave this world to find a new one.
The Pacific Rim world was indeed not very suitable for Wang Bo, Xiao Bai, and Xiao Qing to live together.
"I'll go with you." Diana quickly said when she heard Wang Bo was going. As a superhero, she didn't want to just sit back and enjoy the fruits; she also wanted to contribute to this world.
But this time Wang Bo refused. "I think it's better not. You're indeed very powerful, but the sea is different from land. You might not be able to adapt to underwater combat."
Diana was taken aback. She had indeed never fought an enemy underwater.
Shinonono Tabane nodded. "Alright, I'll monitor the wormhole here. Be careful."
"Don't worry." Wang Bo smiled confidently. A mere wormhole was nothing to him. Even if a kaiju army came, with his strength, he could handle it.
Then, Wang Bo teleported above the Pacific Ocean, cast a water-repelling spell on himself, and entered the sea. Instantly, a gentle force radiated from his body, pushing the surrounding seawater away.
A three-meter-diameter air bubble formed around Wang Bo.
Wang Bo sped along, the air bubble parting the seawater, and soon reached the wormhole.
But Wang Bo did not rashly enter the wormhole, because the wormhole had code verification; only kaiju could enter freely. Without kaiju DNA, outsiders could not invade the wormhole.
Even bombs couldn't be thrown in.
A few years ago, humans on this Earth had tried to destroy the wormhole, but because they didn't understand this, they failed.
Even Wang Bo himself dared not enter recklessly. If the wormhole changed and trapped him inside, that would be terrible. After all, he didn't know much about space.
Currently, he only knew a few space-related spells: teleportation, portal, and mirror space.
Among them, teleportation he learned by wishing; portal and mirror space he learned step by step from magic books. To say Wang Bo truly understood space would be a lie.
So Wang Bo had to be cautious when facing the wormhole.
He could only wait.
A few hours later, the wormhole changed, and a kaiju emerged from it.
Once it left the wormhole, Wang Bo took out a palm-sized sphere, teleported it into the kaiju's body, then teleported from his hiding spot to above the kaiju's head and kicked it in the head.
That kick directly blew the kaiju's head apart. The immense force even split the seawater, creating a vacuum zone hundreds of meters long.
Then, taking advantage of the moment, Wang Bo threw the kaiju's corpse into the wormhole.
The kaiju corpse successfully fooled the wormhole's inspection, entered the wormhole, and descended continuously.
A few minutes later, Wang Bo detonated the bomb.
This bomb also came from the Marvel world, one of the high-tech items Wang Bo had purchased.
Its power far exceeded that of a nuclear bomb.
A few seconds later, a powerful shockwave erupted from inside the wormhole. The force was astonishing; Wang Bo watched as the wormhole collapsed under its power.
Even the entire Pacific Ocean was affected, stirring up massive waves.
Wang Bo had detonated the bomb just as it neared the exit on the other side of the wormhole. If he had detonated it in the middle, it might have altered the Pacific seabed's tectonic plates.
But even so, the Pacific was greatly affected, causing tsunamis in some coastal cities or small islands.
Fortunately, those cities had long been destroyed during the kaiju invasion, or were uninhabited islands, so there were no casualties.
After the wormhole disappeared, Wang Bo returned directly to the stealth fighter. Diana saw him return and broke into a big smile.
At the same time, the changes in the Pacific attracted the attention of the United Nations.
