Five years ago, in the second wave of strikes against South America, the most fearsome of the weapons, the Gale, nuclear-tipped strategic ballistic missiles, were launched from there.

But the so-called "most terrible" is only relative to that one raid. In fact, there is something even more bizarre there.

A nuclear bomb with a yield of 70 million tons.

After the end of World War II, certain European countries tried to demand that the then imperial government return large swathes of Siberia occupied during the First World War, but the empire firmly refused.

Perhaps exasperated by the Empire's "inaction" in the Second World War, certain nations formed a loose coalition and deployed hundreds of thousands of troops on the border in an attempt to force the Empire to make a "wise" decision. The response of the two governments at that time was to increase the number of troops along the Siberian border to 1.5 million, and at the same time to build a large number of missile launch bases, and to deploy the predecessor of the "Gale" ballistic missile, the Julang.

However, this-for-tat hardline posture has not eased the situation. In the years that followed, the two sides engaged in a tug-of-war - the soldiers had just emerged from the shelling of World War II, and of course they were not willing to take on the world's leading behemoth. As a result, large-scale battles never took place, but small-scale conflicts continued.

But even such minor frictions took their toll, and the government's trust in the country's population skyrocketed.

In fact, the armies of the Empire never seemed to be afraid of any war, but the problem was at that time. It seems that the soldiers of those small countries are more heroic and skilled than the soldiers of the empire.

This is because in the course of the Second World War, the empire did not actually conduct large-scale battles. War was declared on the Axis powers even in the year before the end of the war.

For nearly a decade, the Imperial government had played the role of arms exporter and coordinator. Although this practice was despised by a considerable number of people, and even gave the prime minister and the former emperor two big hats, "shameless" and "faint king", the reality is that the empire did grab amazing benefits in such a catastrophe for all mankind.

The prime minister at the time had said that "history will wash away all the infamy I have carried" – perhaps in a hundred years there will be people who will approve of his approach, but before that is a hundred years, humanity will be beset with an even greater catastrophe. And in the face of this disaster, everything that used to be has become light.

As a result, the Imperial soldiers at that time were somewhat powerless in the face of those who had gone through a long war, and the surging public opinion in the country demanded that the "shameless" prime minister should step down immediately. In this case. The military casualties caused by the border friction have undoubtedly become the last straw that could break the camel's back.

So he made a crazy decision.

Within a year. They created a nuclear bomb called "Ancient Star Monarch".

It's almost the size of a small two-story building, 70 million tons of TNT equivalent.

It is the most terrible weapon ever created, and it is estimated that the shock wave it causes can circle the globe for three times, paralyzing half of Asia and all of Europe.

As soon as this thing was made. The other side has lost the courage to continue the stalemate under this almost frenzied nuclear deterrence. Because there is no country on this planet other than the Empire that can afford this thing to explode on its own soil and still have a population alive.

Not to mention the fact that there were only two nuclear states at the time – the other actually declared war only a year before the Empire.

After decades. Today, the number of nuclear states has exceeded double digits. However, this "Ancient Star" is still the holder of the record for the largest yield nuclear bomb - even the second place is only a tenth of its size.

The new government tried to destroy it 14 years ago, but what happened after that became known to everyone – there was no chance to complete such a dangerous project again.

In other words, this "Star Monarch" is still preserved somewhere in the Siberian snowfields.

Until today.

Li Zhen stood still and stared at the light in the north for five minutes. Five minutes later. He felt a warm breeze, and he wasn't sure if it was his delusion or the result of the nuclear bomb.

If such a big move was really made by Lucifer......

One can imagine how miserable it must be now, and how manic it was before.

It's just that I don't know if the Star Monarch has completely wiped it out.

But in any case, the madmen of the Gate of Truth who hid this nuclear bomb will certainly not be happy, and this is really shooting themselves in the foot.

So at this time, Li Zhen suddenly remembered the words of the prime minister - "History will wash away all the infamy I have carried." ”

Although the prime minister may never have imagined that what he made at the beginning would be used today, but perhaps there is a providence in the dark, who knows?

Li Zhen raised his feet and took a step. But just after this step, he suddenly froze. Then he opened his mouth slightly, and glanced north again.

Because a thought suddenly jumped into his mind, and he felt like he was drenched in ice water.

Damn - he didn't care about the life and death of the group of lunatics at the Gate of Truth, however, Beichuan's bones were there!

This thing......

This thing...... Will the skeleton be destroyed as well??

This thought froze him in place, and it took a full minute before he gasped again and tried to convince himself.

If it was Lucifer who had been hit hard and went berserk and accidentally detonated the thing, it meant that it didn't know how powerful it was, or even that it existed. Otherwise, no one or any species of people or species with even a shred of sanity would take such a thing lightly - perhaps its strength could have escaped a nuclear explosion with a million-ton yield, but the yield of thousands of tons......

In the face of that level of destructive power, even the strength of the species has become a joke!

So...... Would that group of people place the "Ancient Star Monarch" near the core area of the Gate of Truth? If you do it yourself, you won't. This is not only about the possibility of a collateral blow in wartime, but also about how long the bomb will exist.

It was made in 1949, more than 70 years ago! Who knows if this thing is still safe? Who knows if it could be detonated by a certain operation error?

So...... No, no.

He muttered to himself, "I put that thing far away - idiots would have piled up explosives bags in their bedrooms!" ”

Or is that the ontology of that species living nearby—perhaps it is trying to figure out the mystery of this ultimate human force?

Then the crazy guy detonated the "Star King......

This "oolong incident", which made him happy a minute ago, has now become a troublesome thing in his mind. He tried to straighten out the cause and effect with the most rational thinking, and then calmed himself down.

In fact, this comfort is only a human being, and it will not have the slightest effect on some of the things that are happening in the far north. Li Zhen also knows this. So he took another deep breath, glanced to the north, and jumped down.

Jumping into a crater and then into a sand pit at the bottom of Taizi Lake.

The clone rushed into the sky and collapsed the zenith of the cave underneath. Although a large amount of earth and rock was sucked up by it at that time, the exposed crater was filled with mud and sand in the subsequent large-scale destruction.

It was now past one o'clock in the morning, and the light in the north had gradually dimmed, as if it had just fallen into night. So Li Zhen could see the faint red light under the mud and sand in the darkness - just like the red light reflected when he was a child holding a flashlight with his palm.

Lu is still there.

When he turned into a mist, Li Zhen deliberately "cared for" her - because he didn't want to face two classes at the same time, and one of them was unclear. The strength of her powers, combined with the power of Longinus' spear, caused her to be re-sealed for a very short time, and the sealing seemed to remain in effect until now.

It didn't take much effort for him to empty the crypt again. Despite the siltation of the Dark River, the river seems to flow more smoothly without the water gushing down from the zenith. The small "lake" around the bronze pedestal was also filled with mud and sand, and Li Zhen stepped on the wet sand and walked in front of the statue.

If you think it's just a statue, there's probably nothing wrong with looking at it directly. But at the moment, Li Zhen knows that this is a "person".

The title was a subjective act of the subjectivity, for she did look like a beautiful woman, unlike anything he had ever seen before. And because he had a glimmer of hope for the position of this species—if it was really his own side, and it was this kind of appearance, he felt that he had to treat her as a human being.

Otherwise...... What are you?

So now he frowned slightly. Because the statue is invisible, every detail of the body is revealed, including hidden hairs and bulges.

The pedestal is very high, two meters long. Li Zhen looked up and walked up.

The effects of the two abilities seem to be fading, and the lines or cracks on the sculpture's body reappear, and something like magma beneath it slowly flows. One of them crossed her eyes as if her gaze was wandering.

Two thick bronze chains ran through her ankles, almost the entire length of her heels, leaving only a thin layer of skin connected. Li Zhen tugged at the bronze chain with his hand and found that the thing not only looked bronze, but was indeed bronze. (To be continued......)
