Chapter 1469 - An Invincible Shield (2/2)

“1”

“0”

“Launch.”

The two launch buttons were pressed down simultaneously.

The blinding electric arc flickered for an instant, and a silver wire as thin as a toothpick separated from the small ship sailing around the synchronous orbit.

It was so slender, so minuscule, and as light as a feather. Compared with the land under it and the universe behind it, it was so insignificant that everyone would ignore its existence.

But at the moment it made contact with the atmosphere, the silver line began to shine, and instantly turned into a hundred-meter-long fire dragon, like a second Sun rising from the horizon, it roared and screamed towards the land underneath. The scorching high temperature melted the ablation material on its surface. Even the strong and high-temperature resistant titanium alloy material started to deteriorate, and it gradually peeled back the tungsten rod…

That tungsten rod!

Under the action of the built-in gyroscope, it formed a straight line with the coordinate to be hit.

Its speed was too fast.

So fast that it only appeared on the radar of W State Air Force Base for a second.

And when the people standing directly under it finally discovered the “redundant” Sun, everything was already over.

The fire touched the ground, and no echo was heard in space. A cross-shaped crack was permanently engraved on the blue planet, followed by a vortex-like collapse that turned the plain into a basin, the basin was then filled to form a hill. The flames of tens of thousands of degrees burned on the withered grass, and the raging shock wave swept through everything and turned everything into carbon; turned everything into ruins…

The rolling shockwave swept across the earth and brought sand and dust over the town hundreds of kilometers away. The farmer sitting on the tractor slightly raised his head as if he was wondering what the light was just now. People ran from their home to the street, then looked at each other in shock. They thought there was an earthquake.

However, it was not until half an hour later that they learned from the town’s broadcast, Facebook, and Twitter on their phones, what happened to the W State Air Force Base less than 50 kilometers away from them, and other military bases in the UA that stocked strategic nuclear weapons…

The button was pressed down countless times.

Tungsten-rod projectiles were fired from the cannon of the SS Expedition in a burst of dazzling white light.

This weapon that was originally designed for the Devil Worm and the Spitter had been used to slaughter the same kind. Fortunately, it was a war to end all wars. It would be the last time such a weapon was used on humans…

Hopefully.

Pacific Strategic Weapons Facility, Andrews Air Force Base, Warren Air Force Base, New Mexico Air Force Base, Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota Plant, Bucks Air Force Base, Ellsworth Air Force Base, Missouri Strategic Weapons Facility…

For over a year, Ghost Agents, with the help of KGB agents, collected this list.

All military facilities that stored or were suspected of storing nuclear weapons were included in the bombing range of the kinetic bombardment weapon. Whether this military base was located in the wilderness or in the downtown area of a small town, from the moment President Pence pressed the nuclear button, the assessment of civilian casualties had been removed from the assessment of orbital bombardment.

In the center of the bridge of SS Expedition.

Reflected in his eyes was a sea of fire, the Captain of Expedition stood below a holographic screen like a sculpture, with calmness and poise between his eyebrows.

In front of him, there were images taken by the observation satellite aerial. Each image corresponded to a military base, and each cluster of flame corresponded to a dead life.

Of the fifty military bases included in the strike range, not all of them were stocked with nuclear warheads, but as long as they were stocked with nuclear warheads or other strategic weapons, most of them were baptized by a second bombardment.

At this time, his deputy walked up to him and performed a clean salute.

“The Celestial Marines are ready to depart!”

The captain nodded slowly, then raised his arm to look at his watch.

A fierce look appeared in the eyes under the brim of the general’s hat.

He spoke.

“Seventh and Eighth Orbital Airborne Brigades, Ninth Power Armor Brigades, all ground combat units enter the launch port.”

“Coordinates, Capital, UA.”

“Execute the airborne mission!”
