May 4, 2083, is destined to be the most glorious day in the history of Olympus. By 9 a.m. that day, Olympus had controlled 30 percent of Mars' surface, 40 percent of Earth's surface, 25 percent of Venus's surface, and the entire Moon, building a vast empire that spanned the entire inner solar system.

At that time, the original major forces on the earth will already be surviving. The only remaining mobile armed forces of the League of Nations are two outer space garrisons, which are simply unable to launch an effective counterattack; The South Pacific Entente was powerless to resist, and all forces were scattered; Only the G-64 is still stubbornly resisting, but the only fighting Wehrmacht has already suffered more than 30 percent of the losses.

[May 4, 9:45 a.m. Haydon time, Bering Strait Olympus Base No. 141]

"Finally, I want to emphasize that President Cassius will be here in fifteen minutes, and everyone must be ready to greet him, everything will go according to plan, and there will be no mistakes, do you understand?"

"Understood!"

"Adjournment!"

At the airport, 14,400 Olympus members are lined up in 16 phalanxes on either side of the runway. They were neatly dressed, standing upright, their eyes steadfast and immovable. There was silence at the airport, all runways were emptied, and every pavement was cleaned. All aircraft within a radius of 100 kilometers were grounded, and the entire airspace was vacated. The Armed Guards are on high alert, with more than 3,000 air defense systems, constituting the most powerful air defense network in the history of mankind, and not even a single mosquito will want to fly in.

Despite all this preparation, Commander Morant was a little nervous. He has been preparing for this day for almost ten years, and there are so many things to show. Cassius was his Bole and the only one he admired.

When the kingdom of Aston fell, he was homeless as a prince and forced to live on the streets, bullied by a group of thugs. As a former member of the royal family, how could he be so ashamed. In order to survive, he went to the garbage can to pick up rotten leaves; kneeling on the side of the street, begging passers-by for a coin; Learn to crawl in the mud, just to get a baked cake in the laughter of everyone. In this kind of life, he watched his kingdom fall apart, the iron hooves of the rebels trampled every inch of mountains and rivers, the bustling city turned into ruins, and hundreds of people were displaced. He left the capital city of Constantine, wandered from the Kherson Mountains to Lake Tripoli, and from the banks of the Edington River to the Yalta Basin. In his grief and indignation, he planned to seek death.

It was an early evening, and the purple sunset covered the entire sky, and the fishy smell of the sea breeze told the resentment. He walked onto an iron bridge and watched the shipwreck in the distance. The sound of the train's whistle irritates his eardrums, and he closes his eyes and waits for the final moment.

As the train was about to approach, he felt a push, a blow to the head, and he passed out. Later, I learned that it was Cassius who rescued him. In subsequent contacts, Cassius appreciated his talent and let him work at Olympus, although he could not inherit the throne, but he also had a platform to show his strengths, which allowed him to rediscover the direction of his life. As a result, he changed the extravagance of royal life in the past, not only helped Olympus build the world's largest armed force, but also used various means to push Olympus to the throne of the world's largest monopoly and became the right-hand man under Cassius. He didn't just want to repay the favor, but he wanted the world to know that they were not qualified to laugh at a declining nobleman.

"Sir, President Cassius' plane is here."

A word interrupted Morant's thoughts.

He looked at the sky, and a large space shuttle glided towards the airfield escorted by fighter jets. The landing gear was lowered, the shuttle landed, and the tail parachute was raised, continuing to travel some distance and coming to a steady stop in front of Morant.

"Playing music!"

Amid loud military music, a wheelchair was slowly pushed off the shuttle, on which sat an old man in his seventies, whose weight on a ventilator accentuated his thinness — that was Cassius — who had been suffering from a rare lung disease for 14 months since last March.

Morant's nose was sore, he walked forward quickly, held Cassius's hand tightly, and said, "Mr. President, are you feeling better?"

Cassius grinned, revealing a few remaining teeth, and said laboriously, "Good, very good!"

Morant knew in his heart, what kind of trick is this! The man who was once able to encourage 700,000 people to demonstrate on the podium is long gone.

Morant stayed by Cassius' side, escorted by a group of bodyguards.

"Hello to President Cassius!"

"Hello President!"

As the procession marched, each phalanx shouted in unison. The loud slogans shook the sky, causing the earth to tremble.

Cassius looked at the phalanx on both sides of the road, smiled as much as he could, raised his hand in motion, and responded in a weak voice, "Hello...... Hello ......."

After reviewing the guard of honor, led by Morant, Cassius and his bodyguards boarded a helicarrier. The rocket engine was activated, 16 flames erupted, and the Helicarrier slowly left the ground. Morant and Cassius arrive at the observation deck, which has a great view from the ground.

"Mr. President, I will show you the unrivaled military power of Olympus." Morant introduced Cassius, who nodded.

In an instant, a dark cloud rose from the sky in the distance—it was a group of tens of thousands of flying machines.

The group approached, passing underneath the Helicarrier. The first to arrive was a group of fighter jets, 125 fighters lined up in the shape of the number 75, implying that today was Cassius's 75th birthday. Then there was the bomber group, which flew under the carrier in a group of 60 bombers. Then there is the drone swarm, which imitates the swarm of bees, and more than 1,000 drones are overwhelming. This is followed by the space shuttle queue, the transport aircraft queue, the landing craft queue...... These air units participated in the review, accounting for 10 percent of the Olympus's air force.

Cassius praised, "Well done, good job, Morant, well done."

Morant maintained his standard military posture and said, "Thanks for the compliment, and the next thing you will see is how easily Olympus' armed forces can tear apart the enemy." Please come with me. ”

Following Morant, everyone came to the operations command room, where the distribution of Olympus' forces was marked on the big screen.

"Within half an hour, we will control the entire surface except for the G64." Morant said to the president of Cassius.

As soon as the screen turned, the big screen switched to the real-time battle situation in various places.

"Commander, let's go." Morant ordered.

"The commander received, and now, the troops are on their heed, and immediately begin the first round of fire coverage."

The first round of fire coverage was launched by space-based weapons. At this moment, more than 300 armed space stations have been assembled in low-earth orbit. The order was given, and more than two thousand L-1 missiles rushed to the positions of the League of Nations and the Entente in the South Pacific at 30 times the speed of sound. Fireballs from the explosion lit up the entire surface. The Resistance, who had just been glad that Olympus had stopped the attack, was dumbfounded. After the first round of fire, the ground surface was reduced by more than two meters, and there was nowhere to escape.

Soon, the second round of fire coverage also began. The second round of fire coverage was launched by various bombers and unmanned attack aircraft. The swarm of planes descended over the Resistance positions, and countless aerial bombs rained down, filling the ground with smoke and no more intact buildings.

The third round of fire coverage was launched by the ground forces. Thousands of missile vehicles and assault artillery have been waiting for a long time. Receiving the order, countless missiles and shells streaked a parabola through the air and smashed mercilessly into the ground. The already bewildered Resistance was even worse off. After this round of bombardment, there was no sound on the resistance positions, and all the tunnels collapsed within 100 meters below the surface, leaving no one alive.

Three rounds of fire coverage ended, and the positions of the League of Nations and the Entente in the South Pacific were completely cleared. The airborne troops landed in the hinterland of the two territories without hindrance and marched towards the capital. Along the way, they held megaphones and shouted, "Lay down your arms!" Hand over the land! Drop your weapon! Hand over the land! "Everywhere you go, no one is unyielding.

Sure enough, in half an hour, they took control of the entire territory of the League of Nations and the South Pacific Entente.

Cassius was pleased with the fireworks display, telling Morant: "When I was younger, I dreamed of having an incredibly strong army, and now, you've helped me make it happen." I didn't look at the wrong person. ”

"I'm flattered by your compliments, but the best performance is yet to come, so please come with me," Morant said.

The group proceeded to the control hall, which was connected to a laboratory located 1,200 meters underground, where the "Shuttler" system, which had just completed its experiments and was successfully operational.

Coming to the control hall, Morant proudly announced: "Mr. President, the G64 Wehrmacht has caused us a lot of trouble in the past nine hours, but they are about to be destroyed. Now, you'll see Olympus' ultimate weapon, the 'Shuttler' system. ”

Morant winked at the commander, who opened the control panel and the system booted up.

The "Shuttle" system is essentially a lattice energy delivery system, which uses the Kuiper source crystal as the energy source, and activates certain points in a certain range of space in a directional manner, and a high-dimensional energy path will be formed between the two points that are activated, so that energy is injected at one point, and the other point will be instantaneously inducted, and the energy will be expanded dozens of times before being released, so as to destroy the target. It is able to do this because the Kuiper source crystals it uses are not only three-dimensional, but also up to eleven-dimensional. The reason why a dormant Kuiper source crystal appears to be just an ordinary crystal is that it folds the high-dimensional structure in the crystal lattice, while only the three-dimensional structure is revealed. Once activated, its higher-dimensional structure is gradually unfolded, and a huge amount of energy is released. It is a remnant of the primordial universe, sealed with untold secrets — perhaps, containing some relics from the previous universe.

The real frightening thing about the "Shuttle" system is that the point that can be activated can be any point in space, which means that unless the high-dimensional energy pathway established by the Kuiper Source Crystal is mastered, there is no possibility of defense.

At that time, in the laboratory 1,200 meters underground, technicians were operating intensively.

"Prepare for the first activation, 1/10,000 energy, E1, E2 point set, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, start activation."

In the central icosahedron, the red pulse suddenly intensified, the vanadium-tungsten alloy cover spun rapidly, and the laboratory was once again shrouded in a pale blue halo. With a loud bang, the space around them began to distort, the straight steel pipes were twisted, and the solid granite walls were bent into waves. The laser beam is visibly deflected to the naked eye, forming a circle of light around the Kuiper source crystal.

"The node is set up, and the delivery begins."

On the control panel, the energy value is gradually full, and the indicators are changing rapidly. There was another loud bang, and the energy delivery was complete.

At this time, on the border defense line of the Group of 64, a huge ball of light suddenly appeared. The Wehrmacht soldiers, who had never seen anything like it, poked their heads out of the fort to look at it. The ball of light was silently suspended, and it seemed to have no malice. However, with a bang, the ball of light expanded violently and exploded, leaving a huge round crater on the surface of the earth with a depth of more than 60 kilometers. Lava erupted, causing a powerful earthquake. The clouds were dispersed for hundreds of kilometers, and the shock wave circled the earth three times.

The border defences were destroyed, and the G-64 Defence Force was wiped out, leaving no survivors.

"Mr. President, from now on, no force can stop us from unifying the solar system."

Cassius straightened up excitedly, he took Morant's hand, trembled and said, "Okay, Morant, okay, this is the best birthday celebration I've ever had in my life, and I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

"Next we're going to Mars, Mount Olympus."

"What are you doing there? Are you going to have a banquet on Mars? Cassius was puzzled.

Mount Olympus is the highest mountain in the solar system, more than three times as tall as Mount Everest, which is where the name Olympus comes from, meaning that they will rise to the top of the mountains and conquer everything.

"Mr. President, it's time to establish a new order, and we have prepared an enthronement ceremony for you. The first year of Olympus, from then on. ”
