Chapter 873: The Final Weapon

Space-based weapons refer to a new concept weapon launched by a weapon carrying platform in orbit in outer space and used to strike at strategic targets in orbit and harmful targets outside the space.

As a target that various countries have been studying in recent years, space-based weapons are divided into two types.

space-based laser satellites, and projection-based space-based weapons.

And the Staff of God is a projection-type space-based kinetic energy weapon developed by the United States.

Hearing the American sequence say this, everyone present was slightly stunned.

A trace of cold sweat slipped from the Russian admiral's forehead and asked.

"The Staff of God? You've already developed it, didn't you say it wouldn't be finished until ten years later?"

As a weapon device projected from an alien orbit, it is extremely difficult to complete the Staff of God, and the information released by the US Military District also said that the Staff of God will be completed in the next ten years.

Hearing the admiral say this, the sequence just nodded, and his expression became more and more serious.

"In fact, two years ago, the Staff of God was basically arranged. ”

The words of the sequence came to the ears, and the audience was in an uproar.

These powerful countries, including China, are independently developing space-based kinetic energy weapons, but the progress is very slow without exception.

And at a time when they were anxious about the design of space-based weapons, the United States had already completed the arrangement of the staff of God in outer space early, and the gap was self-evident.

Hearing the sequence's words, Wang Tu's eyes also changed slightly.

Although there have been many conflicts with China, this does not affect the United States' reputation as the world's number one power, and China still has a lot of gaps in the development of scientific and technological weapons.

"Director Charles. The sequence pronounced the name of the director of NASA, and Charles understood, got up from his position, quickly walked to the projection equipment, and typed in a row of codes.

"Look, this is the Scepter of God weapon system that has been completed. ”

With the sound of Didi, the electronic screen in the center of the conference room turned, and in the space at an altitude of several thousand meters above the head of the demon ship, two satellite platforms rotated at the same speed.

I saw that on top of a satellite, metal rods made of tungsten, titanium, and uranium metals, with a diameter of about 30 centimeters, a length of six meters, and a tonnage weight, were hanging under the satellites that were constantly rotating and rotating.

It was clear to everyone that the metal rod looked like a modest weapon, but it was a terrifying weapon that could easily make an area disappear from the world map.

Seeing the fully formed God's Scepter firing system, everyone present gasped.

The United States has really completed space-based weapon systems!

In the silence, a researcher from a Western country asked with an uneasy glint in his eyes.

"I've heard that the destructive power of the Staff of God is actually similar to that of a nuclear weapon, can it really be used to effectively strike alien ships?"

Director Charles turned his head and looked up at the researcher with an extremely complicated expression.

Originally, the Staff of God had already completed this matter, which was the top secret of the United States, and in order to protect this secret, the military district and the Aerospace Administration did not know how much work had been put into it.

Charles never imagined that the secret of the Scepter of God would finally be revealed in this form.

In fact, a few hours ago, Charles had already discussed with the members of NASA how to shoot down an alien ship, and the members at that time believed that nuclear weapons would not necessarily succeed in achieving the goal, and that only the rod of God could completely destroy the alien ship.

With a slow sigh in his heart, Charles explained.

"Unlike nuclear weapons, which are half-biochemical and half-physical, the Scepter of God is a purely physical strike weapon that relies entirely on rocket propulsion and kinetic energy generated by free fall to destroy targets. ”

"Although the nuclear bomb has a wide range, the single-point blasting ability is not strong, and the destructive power of the Scepter of God is about ten times that of the nuclear bomb in destroying the target's armor. ”

If it were normal times, hearing the generals of the military region say this, these people would surely feel anxious and uneasy because the United States is far outpacing the speed of development of its own country in the development of scientific and technological weapons, but now, they feel more relaxed and relieved than ever.

Ten times the purely physical destructive power and blasting power of nuclear weapons, what is that concept?

I'm afraid it can blow up the ship into cosmic garbage from the inside out!

A Western Sequencer asked, with a look of anticipation on his face.

"So, when will it be ready to launch?"

"Now. The sequence spoke, his face as firm as a rock.

In the face of such a phenomenal crisis, there is no need to hesitate or wait.

"Didi. ”

Then, the voice of the communication device sounded, and the speaker was turned on, and everyone in the audience heard the voice coming from the communication device.

"Report, this is NASA, the general control center of the 'Scepter of God' One. ”

"From now on, we will conduct a security check on the Scepter of God, and after that, we will carry out a precise targeting strike on the main ship of the alien fleet. ”

"The process will last about ten minutes, so please be patient. ”

"Hmm. Sequence nodded and spoke.

"Let's get started. ”

Then, on the electronic screen, the tail of the satellite, which was hung with dozens of metal rods, spewed blue flames, and began to slowly adjust the speed of revolution and autobiography, obviously preparing to be in the same straight line as the alien ship for a while.

"Projection track check complete..."

"Rocket Boost System Inspection Complete..."

Everyone, including the sequence, held their breath, quietly listening to the report coming back from the communication device, and looking at the electronic screen as the sky-based weapon satellite was constantly adjusted.

Even though Director Charles had explained that the blasting power of the Scepter of God was far stronger than that of nuclear weapons, the hearts of the people were still very uneasy when they saw that the Scepter of God was really ready to be launched.

Although it has appeared in many films, television and literature, the Scepter of God has never been actually launched, except for small-scale simulation experiments, and what Charles said is only a corollary of NASA.

Including the American Sequence and Military Admirals, no one knows what the actual power of the Scepter of God really is.

After all, as the only technological weapon on Earth that is more powerful than nuclear weapons, once the Scepter of God fails, it means that there is no way for the Earth to prevent alien ships from landing on Earth.

Li Qingyun was also infected by this heavy atmosphere, and waited without saying a word for the Staff of God to complete the final examination.

"The titanium tungsten metal rod has been inspected, and it is expected that there will be another minute to be in the same straight line as the alien ship. ”

By this stage, quite a few people have begun to close their eyes and pray.

As complete bystanders, what happened next, they could not help in any way, and could only pray in their hearts that the Staff of God would work to force the alien ship back.

"The inspection is complete, the positioning strike aiming is complete, the launch indication is requested. At the end of a long minute, the last sound sounded from the communication device.

The American sequence nodded, took a long breath, and slowly spat out two words.

"Launch. ”

Unlike the loud roar of the nuclear bomb, the Staff of God was launched silently without any sound.

On the electronic screen, in space thousands of kilometers away from the alien ship, six metal rods untied the connection with the satellite system, like frozen ice bars, silently falling towards the location of the ship.

"Amen. ”

Seeing that sight, Sequence closed his eyes and prayed reverently in his heart.

Ten seconds later, the sound of an explosion sounded.

"Knock knock..."

Unlike the loud sound produced by the explosion of a nuclear weapon, the head of the metal strip on the picture falls accurately above the head of the main ship of the fleet, and the explosion sound is extremely dull.

"Report, this is NASA, the Scepter of God successfully hit the target. ”

In the communication device, the voice of the reporter was a little excited, and everyone opened their eyes expectantly and looked at the picture on the screen.

The moment the scene in the picture came into view, everyone froze in place, like clay sculptures.

The flames of the explosion dissipated, and the main ship was still intact and slowly descended towards the location of the earth, and the destructive power generated by the simultaneous explosion of six space-based weapons, let alone blowing up the main ship, even if it slowed down the landing speed slightly, it could not do it!

How ridiculous your efforts, your resistance, are.

Then, as if mocking the Earth's resistance, the pale blue flames erupted from the back of the main ship, speeding up and flying towards the predetermined position...

There are still six hours before the Demon Fleet lands on Earth.
