Chapter 198: The Sword Bearer
The Staff of God, formerly known as the Staff of God space-based kinetic weapon system, NATO will complete the deployment of this weapon system in 2030. By now, however, its combat form is no longer limited to kinetic attacks.
Over the past 100 years, NATO has continued to refine this weapon system. Although the core attack capability is still the vertical strike of tungsten rod bullets, in addition to this ability, NATO has also equipped it with high-power microwave weapons (HPM), wide-area electromagnetic pulse (EMP) projection, and ion shield and other anti-heaven capabilities. It has been completely transformed into a hedgehog-like existence - a "low-earth orbit weapon platform".
Although he had already felt the power of this weapon in the virtual world, after listening to Lin Ling's popular science, Jiang Chen couldn't help but secretly speak.
Seeing the surprised expression on Jiang Chen's face, Lin Ling raised her little head proudly, paused and continued.
"That thing is really powerful, and it is said that in order to shoot down that thing, the PAC fired up to 27 nuclear bombs into low earth orbit, but unfortunately they were all intercepted. In the end, it was only with the cooling state of the energy of the Staff of God that had just cast an HMP strike on Wanghai City's holy shield system, relying on the strong attack of the aviation special forces, and paying the price of more than a dozen low-earth orbit landing ships, it was able to capture it. ”
"However, the 'scepter' that had just arrived in his hand had not yet been warmed up, and NATO, determined not to destroy it and not fall into the hands of the enemy, activated the self-destruction process of the Scepter of God. As a result, this superweapon, which has been in service for nearly 150 years, has turned into space junk. ”
No one knows more about this weapon than Lin Ling, after all, she used to be a researcher at PAC, and she still knows more or less about the details of that weapon.
"Wait, space junk?"
"Yes, is there any problem?" Lin Ling asked, tilting her little head.
"Didn't the Staff of God fall to the ground?" Jiang Chen asked with a frown.
"Of course not, I can testify to that. The post-war World Coalition considered recovering the wreckage in low-Earth orbit, but the proposal was not implemented because the space colonization plan promoted by the escapees was approved by a large majority soon after, as you should know, six colony ships flew into deep space. ”
"Is that so?" Jiang Chen muttered thoughtfully.
"Why do you suddenly ask this?" Lin Ling wondered.
"Someone calculated and analyzed through supercomputers that the wreckage of the Scepter of God had fallen in the center of Wanghai City. ”
"It can't be. You've been scammed. Lin Ling unceremoniously denied.
Am I being scammed?
Jiang Chen fell into deep thought.
Or is everyone deceived?
This eventful time
In an antique room, a small incense burner sits on the table, and green smoke wafts from it. A man with gray sideburns was leaning on a chaise longue. With his eyes closed, he seemed to be napping. And standing next to him was a woman in a cheongsam, whose beautiful appearance was not beautiful, but it was better than that virtuous charm.
Such an ancient picture is obviously inconsistent with the painting style of the high-rise buildings outside the window.
It can be in the sixth block where every inch of land is valuable. Circle to build a mansion with such a large area, presumably it also has a good strength.
It is also true that the man lying on the recliner is Cao Jinsong, the boss of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce and the chief member of the Committee of Ten.
There was a knock at the door, and the man raised his eyelids slightly.
"Come in. His voice was slow and gentle, but there was no hint of old age.
The door slowly pushed open, and a woman walked in.
That face was the same as the cheongsam beauty standing beside him.
It's like carved out of a mold.
Except for the twins. There is only one explanation, and that is human cloning.
"All nine commissioners have already sent a massive convoy to the city center. Among them, the Two-Headed Cattle Chamber of Commerce was the largest, with a total of 207 people, 2 spider tanks, and 5 infantry vehicles."
Listening to the secretary's report, Cao Jinsong half-squinted his eyes and nodded.
When she finished, he muttered briefly for a moment before he continued.
"What about Zhao Chenwu, did he make any moves?"
This man was slightly smarter than the other councillors, and Ajing's mesmerizing brilliance didn't completely blind him.
"He sent scouts to Luzhou. A convoy was also sent to the city center, but their convoy did not venture and only followed our convoy. Pushing her glasses, the secretary-like woman said.
Cao Jinsong suddenly laughed. The wrinkles that have been etched on the face by the years bloom. Looks like a kind old man.
However, the laughter was tinged with a few eerie wisps.
"Everybody wants to be the one who wields the sword, but it's interesting if the sword doesn't exist at all. ”
Solid theoretical basis, the peep of foreign enemies. These two points alone seem to be sufficient evidence for the existence of the scepter of God.
For reasons that must not be allowed to others. Everyone reached for the ethereal sword.
"Is it already time?" Cao Jinsong looked at the misty green smoke on the incense burner and smiled.
The expressionless secretary just looked at him quietly, not saying a word.
"Bring that thing. ”
"It's ready. A smile appeared on the female secretary's face, and she took out a holographic computer pen from her pocket and handed it to him.
He took the holographic computer pen, but his index finger stopped at the start button.
Two faces are reflected on the metal shell, one old and the other young.
That young face belonged to his wife, who was so weak that she didn't even survive the first year. On his deathbed, he promised her that he would bring order to this chaotic wasteland.
Then go down to be with her.
After the collapse of all civilizations, a new civilization will surely emerge in the ruins. The new civilization that has been reborn from the ashes will be stronger than ever, and it will learn the lessons of the demise of the previous civilization and abandon the weaknesses of the previous civilization.
In this radiation-strewn ruins, it's not just xenomorph claws and human marksmanship that have evolved, there's something higher.
Thirteen years ago, the walls of the Sixth Block were completed. In this settlement established by the remnants, the spark of civilization was born.
However, the spark has been silent for too long.
Even if the expedition brought it prosperity, it was only at the level of prosperity.
Whenever their own interests are touched, the parliament quarrels.
Nothing can be done without a unified voice calling the shots.
He's had enough of endless bickering.
The people of the Northern Connexus may come, but definitely not now, and definitely not for the scepter of God, but for something else.
Ten years ago, the reunification of the Northern Union was completed.
If this continues, the Sixth Block will not be their opponent, but will only be reduced to the dust of history. However, everything here is his heart's work, and he can't bear to go to such an end.
This soil needs dictatorship!
"Is it a hero or a sinner, can only be judged by history?" muttered to himself, Cao Jinsong closed his eyes.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked at the secretary in front of him.
"Qin Lian, can you lend me some courage?"
The woman didn't say anything, just put her hand on his. The cheongsam woman standing beside him also walked over silently and stretched out her hand.
He took a deep breath and the frantic expression returned to his face.
"So, let's get started. ”
He pressed the button.
A fire ignites, and the Crimson Chamber of Commerce's owner's courtyard in the sixth block is set on fire.
It is rumored that it is the conspiracy of the Zhao group that is plotting the "treasure".
At the same time, dozens of kilometers away in the city center, a fire was ignited at the same time.
The wolf smoke of the civil war-
