At the same time that mortals were showing off their self-produced robotic arms to magicians, in distant Dothan, a huge project was progressing to its final stage.
An engineer pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose and was checking various data in his notebook.
Standing next to him was a general. He looked at the technicians around him depressedly, feeling a little bit like a madman.
Yes, he feels that he is a madman, because what he is doing now can definitely be described as crazy.
"This thing is so crazy." He finally couldn't help it and said, "Is this kind of thing... really feasible?"
"General, in theory this is completely feasible! We have used the latest computer to check it 10 times, and every time we have very good results."
"You actually checked the calculation ten times? After checking the calculation so many times, you still choose to do such a crazy thing?" The general looked at the other party in disbelief, with a look of shock in his eyes.
As a general, a senior general, the troops he commands can be said to be the most powerful troops in Elland Hill.
But today, the task he wants to perform is contrary to what he is good at. What he is good at is destroying everything, but his task today is to build...
"There is no way. There are three industrial zones around here waiting for water. If we cannot build this reservoir within two months, there will be many problems with the construction progress of the entire industrial zone." The engineer raised his head and said seriously.
said.
"But we are a nuclear missile force!" The general said with a sad face, "Isn't this thing launched at someone else's house?"
"Anything, as long as it is used well, can benefit mankind! Can't it?" The engineer sneered and laughed at himself: "At least in my hands, your weapons are very efficient as explosives for digging reservoirs!
"
As he spoke, he pointed to the documents in front of him and the photos sandwiched above, and explained: "The crater created by the 1-million-ton nuclear weapon dropped on Bellevue is very huge. And after Bellevue
In the northern region, the small-yield shock wave bomb dropped was also very effective."
Having said this, he paused and continued to talk about his plan: "After strict calculations, we are going to use three nuclear weapons to detonate them at the specified location to create an artificial lake... It will probably only take a few hours.
In time, the corresponding project can be completed!”
"You don't seem to realize at all that this is a nuclear weapon! It contains radiation!" the general reminded depressingly.
He really hates when others mention nuclear weapons in an understatement. After all, for knowledgeable people like them, every nuclear weapon means death and destruction, horrific radiation and endless suffering.
In his opinion, human beings should remain in awe of this terrifying force that is comparable to nature. Instead of taking it out and using it at will.
In other words, he has a sacred understanding of his profession: they are the sharp swords hanging over the enemy's heads, the cruelest existence to destroy the enemy, not children's toys or anything else...
"We use high-yield shock wave bombs, and the radiation can be within the control range. We have already considered this. Do you have any questions?" The engineer explained patiently.
He felt that he needed to let others know his abilities. They were carefully calculated and different from those random and whimsical guys.
"Even a large-yield shock wave bomb will still have a small amount of radiation left! It is very dangerous to enter the radiation zone for at least a few days." The commander of the missile unit raised his eyebrows and still questioned.
"Oh, of course we have a way to deal with this." The engineer looked behind the general.
"Don't tell me that you have prepared radiation-proof clothing for every person who enters the radiation area for construction! That's thousands of people!" the general asked with a sneer.
"Of course it's impossible. Radiation-proof clothing is an expensive thing. Using it on such a large scale will increase the cost of the project." The engineer shook his head. Of course, he couldn't prepare so many expensive clothes for the construction workers to wear.
"Then you..." The general was stunned for a moment, and then stared at the engineer. In his view, it would be absolutely intolerable to deceive the amount of radiation and allow those workers in Ailan Hill to enter the radiation zone.
But obviously, people here have never thought about letting people from their own country take risks in the radiation zone.
"Some of the prisoners we captured from the Holy Demon Empire are stubborn." Behind the two men, an officer who had never put down his telescope or spoke suddenly said.
Under the gaze of the missile force general, he put down the telescope and turned around, the scars on his face were clearly visible.
He was wearing a Guards uniform and leather gloves, and he looked like a bad guy. I have to say, with his appearance and clothes, in the movie, you would know that he is a villain without opening your mouth.
.
However, just such a man wears the Imperial Bronze Eagle Medal on the chest of his Guards uniform. Among the levels of medals, the Bronze Eagle Medal is already a very high medal. This means that the man in front of him has performed
At least one difficult important mission.
"According to the above, these people will be gathered here to perform labor under our supervision! If they are lazy, we will execute the lazy people. If they are not lazy, we will execute them after the project is completed.
Kill everyone." The officer was very calm, as if he was not talking about massacre.
"Is this an order from His Majesty?" the missile officer asked subconsciously.
"No! His Majesty's order is to treat prisoners preferentially." The officer with a scar on his face replied coldly.
"Then...why don't you execute..." the officer of the missile force asked.
"Such a trivial matter does not require His Majesty's intervention! As ministers, we live to bear these shameful darkness for Your Majesty, don't we?" The officer's tone was still calm.
"We people are not as glamorous as your regular army, but our loyalty to His Majesty is also unquestionable." He walked up to the general of the missile force, arranged the medals hanging on the general's chest with his hands, and said
Said: "Leave the dirty work to us."
"I understand!" The general stood up straight and saluted the Guards officer in front of him, who was slightly lower in rank than him, with a standard military salute: "Long live His Majesty the Emperor! I admire your loyalty! You can
It is my honor to work with people like you! Please allow me to express my highest respect to you!"
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" The officer with a scar on his face stood at attention and returned the salute, the Imperial Bronze Eagle Medal on his chest shining brightly in the sun.
"If you have no objections, just sign here! The water filling will start in a week! This will be a miracle! Gentlemen! Our reservoir will be built in a week!" The engineer smiled and handed over the document in his hand.
Half an hour later, in the distance that they could see from where they were, a mushroom cloud rose into the sky. The huge explosion shook the ground here. Everyone felt the huge shock wave and the destructive power it brought.
.
Then, when everyone was shocked, the second nuclear bomb exploded, and the surroundings shook again. The explosion power of this nuclear bomb was almost the same as that of Bellevue's nuclear bomb, which was almost one million tons.
Enough to destroy a city.
Immediately afterwards, the third nuclear bomb also exploded, and a third mushroom cloud could be clearly seen rising into the sky from where the headquarters was located.
These three nuclear bombs will form a large-scale lake nearby and form a long and narrow waterway. And because of the low-radiation design, the nearby nuclear pollution will not be too serious. As time goes by, the area will become
into a safe zone with normal radiation levels.
Regrettably, some people could not wait until this place became a safe zone. They were forced into this radiation zone under the gunpoint of Airan Hill soldiers to carry out the task of building a reservoir.
Before they came, they had been promised that as long as they built the reservoir, they could get amnesty and leave Elland Hill to return to their hometown. Of course, such a promise was a scam, and they were destined to be unable to return.
to your hometown.
"Let the prisoners enter the construction site! Our soldiers will guard the perimeter! If anyone is lazy and fails to complete the expected project, then all of them will be executed! Let the next batch of captive laborers enter!" Watching the mushroom cloud in the distance gradually dissipate, the Guards'
The officer ordered to his subordinates.
"Every two hours, let these prisoners come out to rest, and our people will enter from another entrance to check the progress of the project! Don't let the prisoners see the inspectors wearing radiation protection suits to avoid causing riots!" Everything has been planned.
, arranged in an orderly manner under the orders of the officer.
Under the rapid development of Ireland, it has long been impossible to verify how many bones have been buried. Under those towering buildings, in those factory chimneys with thick smoke, and in those new railways that have been laid
Under the sleepers, within the nobles' splendid castle walls, there were corpses everywhere and blood everywhere.
Of course, if it is watered with blood, the flowers will bloom as beautiful as before; if it is nourished with soul, the civilization built will still be brilliant; if it is built up with life, an era will still be a great era.
Ailanshir is still powerful, its power is still indestructible, its development is still rapid, and it is still the brightest star in this era. Because even the brightest light can still not illuminate the darkness behind it.
But then again, maybe the darkest place is pregnant with light?
