While Claire was in a daze, the alarm sounded, and at the same time, the lighting brightness of the entire command module dropped sharply, and a dazzling red light flashed.
A mature man's magnetic voice sounded: "If a Class A illegal operation is discovered, all permissions of the ship members will be immediately deprived. The ship personnel will immediately stop all activities and stand by in place. Repeat..."
Finally found it!
Claire's fingertips twitched. This was no longer the tone of a shipboard artificial intelligence. It was obvious that a high-authority intelligence was involved. However, he did not breathe a sigh of relief, because at this moment, with the deprivation of authority, all the machines in the command module that should have been locked were
position, it is still running; the real-time status of the main engine displayed on the tactical sandbox has not changed.
The corners of his eyes twitched: This method mastered by the Soul Religion is no longer called technology, but a hell of a magic!
So is there any miracle to punish me?
Claire did not wait for a miracle. Ten seconds later, what occupied the communication channel was a request for negotiation from a certain senior general.
Although it was in a threatening tone, it was obvious that if there were other ways, why would the other party adopt such an inefficient method at this critical moment?
In fact, it is not inefficient, and it is not effective at all.
The only response was Cao Kai's low murmur. He had stopped all operations, just sat on the command seat and began to recite incomprehensible spells or scriptures.
The main gun firing process does not stop because of this. It is completely dominated by that magical power and continues steadily.
Claire has already seen the thirty-second countdown prompt.
He really wanted to do something, but the paralysis had invaded the base of his tongue, and he had even lost the ability to speak. Even if his eyes bulged out of their sockets, he was powerless to do anything that happened in front of him.
His emotions are not fundamentally different from the nagging negotiation requirements over there, and they will not have any effect.
Under the influence of this weak struggle, the thirty-second countdown quickly passed and returned to zero.
A slight vibration was transmitted, and Claire hoped that this was just an illusion caused by high tension, but it was clearly the same as the feeling when the main gun was fired - strictly consistent with logic and facts.
The main gun fired!
A nuclear missile with an equivalent of 50,000 tons locks the entered coordinates and ignites through the space-based launcher. In a light resistance environment, it can accelerate wildly in a very short time and rush into the atmosphere. Under the influence of the earth's gravity, its speed can eventually reach
Nearly Mach 20 is already at the level of an intercontinental ballistic missile.
The 400-kilometer open space distance can be reached in less than a minute, and it hits. I don't know what will happen to Sancheng. Pingmao District is definitely doomed.
It's really finished...
Claire's eyes were straightened, but the "octopus" in the crystal ball was still floating in front of his eyes, almost spinning close to his face, as if celebrating or mocking... Of course, they ignored him at all.
Claire really wanted to swallow this thing in one gulp and bite it to pieces. He did open his mouth, but even though he looked ferocious, his mouth was actually just a crack. There was nothing else but saliva piling up in a gravity-free environment.
The dough is stirred in the mouth.
This appearance has no meaning other than highlighting his embarrassment.
But for some reason, at this moment, the "octopus" floating and dancing in the void suddenly trembled, turned around, and turned its head. The once cute, once dark and cold eyeballs were revealed in front of Claire again.
Only this time, the place seemed to be a little deformed, twisted into a very funny arc shape,
In fact, the round body of the "octopus" was also distorted, as if an invisible palm penetrated the crystal ball, grasped it directly, and twisted it into all kinds of strange shapes. After half a second, even the crystal ball outside was distorted.
Already.
Only then did Claire realize that the "crystal ball" was not actually a crystal ball, but a different texture.
He was a little confused.
At this time, the sound of "chanting" in the command cabin was also distorted and distorted, as if someone had strangled the throat.
Claire struggled to open her eyelids to look, but there was a muffled "bang" in her ears. It sounded like it was the main gun operator's position opposite.
He could no longer turn his head to look, and then there was another almost identical sound, this time it originated from the command seat above him.
Almost at the same time, Claire's face was splashed with a mark of warmth. In fact, within his field of vision, there were "fragments" of similar temperature and texture spreading out, like a group of coquettish flowers of flesh and blood.
It was close to 7 o'clock in the evening, Sakai time, not long after the sky had darkened, and it was during the evening rush hour. The temporary magnetic track channel on Beishan Lake was opened. Even in the Pingmao District at the northern end of the lake, you could vaguely see the line in the sky at the far end.
A blurry band of light is meandering under the cover of clouds
move.
Yin Le just came down from the upper deck. She was holding a remote meeting with Meng Chong on the Emerald Light, Jiang Yuanzhen and others in Ticheng to discuss how the Blood Flame Order would fare after Ronan changed to a high-profile and strong acting style.
Regarding the issue of adjustments. Talking about the high-level meeting that had been brewing for many days was about to begin, and more new information was about to take shape, so we temporarily suspended it and prepared to make further calculations after the meeting.
Although he already knew the facts, Yin Le was still a little unaccustomed to Ronan's phenomenal performance of sleeping on a yacht while showing off his power thousands of miles away. He subconsciously went to the cabin where Ronan was.
Entering the main hall on the lower deck, Yin Le glanced around the corner out of habit. As expected, he saw Sheyu hugging her knees, leaning there with her whole face buried in her knees, showing no sign of her arrival.
No reaction - Ever since Snake Whisper became Ronan's "experiment", his condition has hardly gotten better. Especially in the past two days, it seems that he has been hit by some kind of "eye spell", which has made the situation worse. In front of Ronan, he is fine.
, most of the rest of the time, I am in this depressed state.
Yin Le gave up the idea of communicating with Snake Language. She just came here out of habit with no purpose. Ronan was "resting" in the back bedroom and was distracted from making trouble thousands of kilometers away. She didn't dare to disturb...
…
It's weird. Just when I thought "can't disturb", the bracelet vibrated. The sound was not loud, but it was very clear in the quiet room. Yin Le frowned and looked at it. The name of the contact person that caught her eye made her brows jump.
.
At this time, a text message from the same source came in.
Yin Le didn't look carefully and directly connected: "President He, you..."
This is what Yin Le calls He Yueyin. The two of them originally had little interaction, but recently, Yin Le has been ordered by Ronan to collect intelligence information from all sources. It is impossible to complete it solely through the channels of the Blood Flame Order.
Guaranteed results inevitably involve trouble. Although He Yueyin was in seclusion, he still gave her a lot of support. After going back and forth, the two of them became familiar with each other.
In Yin Le's impression, He Yueyin was the kind of person who was businesslike and very sensible, and was never lacking in courtesy. But this time, the person opposite directly interrupted her speech:
"Mr. Luo is with you?"
"Uh, in the back room..."
"You move immediately! The nuclear strike is expected to arrive in 85 seconds!"
"ah?"
"Escape immediately. I've sent you the nearest civil air defense project location. If it's too late, go into the water nearby, at least fifty meters deep...immediately!"
Yin Le did not question the authenticity of the information. It was obvious that this was no joke. Moreover, just as she was exchanging information with He Yueyin, sirens also sounded over the Pingmao District - be it air defense sirens or nuclear strike sirens.
In short, the elongated and sharp roar really hit her heart.
Snake Whisper in the corner also looked up.
At this moment, Yin Le didn't have much information in her mind. Driven entirely by instinct, she rushed forward and opened the wooden sliding door, calling at the same time:
"gentlemen……"
Yin Le didn't say the next words, because inside, Ronan had already sat up. He had been up for an unknown period of time, and his hair was still a little messy. At this time, his eyes were looking through the cabin's viewing window into the noisy darkness outside.
.
Yin Le felt relieved at first, but soon became nervous again: "Sir, we must..."
"late."
"ah?"
"It's too late...there are always these unexpected things."
Ronan stretched out his hand to rub his already messy hair, looking a little troubled. As for the problem, he spoke late, but his body did not move. He still sat hugging the quilt and sighed unhurriedly.
Sheyu also moved in and stood next to Yin Le. The two looked at each other. Although their emotions were inconsistent, they stopped talking simultaneously.
Yes, no matter how nervous they are, when they see Ronan looking like this, they must obey subconsciously, no, in principle. Even if a nuclear bomb really falls from the sky and hits them in front of them at the next moment, they must maintain this "decency"
, in order to show respect and awe for Ronan.
Yin Le and She Yu didn't speak, but He Yueyin's communication continued uninterrupted. Thousands of kilometers apart, they still conveyed that rare tension and urgency:
"Your position has not changed..."
"Sister Yueyin, I know this matter, I will solve it."
There was silence in the air for a moment before He Yueyin responded:
"……good."
The lingering sound echoed in the yacht in Beishan Lake. At a secret military base thousands of kilometers away, He Yueyin was wearing a broad robe and standing barefoot on the cold floor. There was nutrient solution falling on his body and head. It was a rare sight.
She looked a bit embarrassed - she had indeed forcibly interrupted the debugging experiment and warned Ronan, but the latter's reaction made her unavoidably frightened.
one side
, the live broadcast picture spliced from multiple angles of real scenes of outer space and the atmosphere is displayed in the projection area. Thousands of kilometers apart, plus the combination of picture splicing, the signal must be delayed, so what she sees now is one second
, the situation two seconds or even five or six seconds ago.
At this time, the various images did not even fully capture the position of the falling nuclear warhead, but only occasionally caught a glimpse of the light spot flashing through the complex cloud environment.
Dr. Pan, who had presided over the relevant test before, was quite emotional: "I haven't seen this scene in a few years. There should be missile interception systems in Bancheng and surrounding areas, right? Of course, these years it was mainly used to hunt birds. When I was young...
"
He Yueyin turned to look at him.
"What's wrong?"
"The front-end satellite early warning system is abnormal and has missed the interception window."
"Is it such a coincidence?"
It's too late to say anything now. There are pictures showing that the fighter planes on duty at Sakai have taken off and the missile defense system has been turned on. However, they are just talking about personnel matters.
Sakai City was already in chaos. Nuclear strike sirens were played faithfully, and the double bombardment of sound waves and text messages paralyzed the city that had just fallen into the night and was in the evening rush hour.
"The real challenge is after the warhead lands." Tian Bang, dressed in military uniform, strode in with a bright voice, "I really didn't expect that there are people who are pioneers for kings in this world. Do you need help? Madam?"
He Yueyin did not respond, even though Tian Bang's words could be regarded as a representative statement in some sense.
85 seconds, very short and very long. She had done a lot of things, which seemed meaningless, but she finally remembered Ronan's calm response.
"The mid-section interception failed...actually there was no mid-section interception at all." Tian Bang sighed after seeing this.
Space-based weapons are like this. They accelerate with low resistance, are fast, and have a short range. After entering the atmosphere, the speed exceeds Mach 20, which puts great pressure on the terminal anti-missile system.
Response time is too limited.
"There are still 20 seconds..."
As soon as I spoke, the time of destruction was already beating crazily towards the end.
"The first wave should be fine." Tian Bang unconsciously speeded up his speech to express his point of view.
Nearly one and a half minutes of warning time was given, and the surrounding environment was not bad. How could an extraordinary species survive? But after such decisive measures, it was not as simple as post-disaster rescue.
He Yueyin finally responded, saying something unrelated to the scene: "An aircraft took off from Amaterasu Shrine and went to Beishan Lake."
"It's an interception... what the hell! Hey!"
Really do nothing?
At this time, Tian Bang's mouth really couldn't keep up.
On the contrary, the military personnel responsible for surveillance and interception, with their highly abbreviated professional vocabulary, formed a storm that hit their faces, impacting their eardrums through live broadcast signals.
Compared with the quick and calm terminology of the remote personnel, the information link near Sakai may be more representative. Someone, possibly the pilot, was already screaming.
At this time, the high-speed camera captured a few effective frames - the high-heat reaction of the nuclear warhead was displayed as a light point falling from the sky in the dim image of the thermal imaging, and behind it, there was a desperate chain of electromagnetic guns passing by.
.
The ten-second countdown has entered, maybe five seconds?
All interception methods failed, announcing that the fate of the Banjo Pingmao District was sealed.
Even Tian Bang felt that the energy and blood in his body were accelerating, his pores were opening, and his scalp was slightly numb. He subconsciously opened his eyes wide and his pupils dilated, preparing to receive the terrifying cloud that was about to explode.
He Yueyin's body suddenly trembled. This was the information Tian Bang took in from the corner of his eye, but his brain had no time to analyze it further, because at this time, the spliced real-life image "split".
It's hard to describe such a change.
In fact, reflected in the real-life image, it was just a shadow that suddenly appeared, as straight as if someone was drawing it with a pencil ruler, directly cutting through the void that was mapped at the front of the bullet's light spot.
Well, that's what it feels like.
The next moment, the light point of the warhead fell into the shadow, and then... nothing happened.
"Target disappeared?" Someone said something in the communication channel, followed by meaningless noise.
However, Tian Bang saw that the real scene image was obviously fluctuating, as if the void covered with clouds was trying to erase the remaining traces of shadows.
However, the shadow is there, stretching across the sky, with a vague three-dimensional sense, as if one side of the void is tilted, and the other side is curled. It has lost its previous straight appearance, but it has formed a strange scene like a confrontation between high gorges.
…
It's more like an ulcerated wound that is difficult to heal in a short period of time, exposed to people's eyes.
