Faced with the sudden loss of functionality of the surrounding electronic equipment, Qin Zhibo's first thought was EMP weapons.
EMP weapons, the full name of electromagnetic pulse weapons, can release a strong electromagnetic pulse that is harmless to the human body and cannot even be felt by humans.
But for electronic equipment, electromagnetic pulses can produce voltage and current interference, causing circuit failures in electronic equipment.
However, although the theory of electromagnetic pulse weapons existed as early as the 1940s, it is only in the 21st century that such weapons can be used in actual combat.
Of course, this world is a parallel world, and everything is possible...
"Tell everyone to get out of the car and protect the princess!"
Keith called to his men to convey orders to each vehicle in the convoy.
Without electronic devices, humans would be so inconvenient.
The men nodded, and just as they turned around and ran away, gunfire suddenly erupted from the crowd on the street.
Da da da……
"ah--!"
The piercing sound of submachine guns rang out from the streets in different directions, and the frightened people immediately screamed, fell down on the spot, or ran away in all directions.
Four figures wearing black cloaks and black skull masks were seen standing among the fleeing crowd, like the remaining stamens after the petals had withered, holding submachine guns and shooting at the carriage where Mira was sitting.
Pia, Pia, Pia…
Countless bullets hit the carriage glass, and Mira in the carriage was so shocked that she subconsciously raised her hand to block it, but luckily all the bullets hit the tempered glass, leaving only white marks.
"Protect the princess!"
Chisi pulled out his pistol from the holster and fired several shots at a street assassin.
However, the bullet hit him, and the opponent's body only trembled left and right a few times, but did not fall down. Instead, he turned the gun and shot at Keith.
A line of bullets swept across the hood of the car. Keith crouched down quickly, but was suppressed by the fire and unable to move.
When the Royal Guardsmen in other escort vehicles heard the gunfire, they immediately came out of the vehicle.
But as soon as they got out of the car, they were attacked by assassins who had already been ambushing them on both sides of the street.
A dense net of firepower swept across the body of the car, and even the guards who had just got out of the car. Although they were protected by body armor, countless blood blossoms still bloomed on their bodies under the powerful firepower.
One minute ago, Princes Street was a peaceful scene of people returning home.
The next minute, the streets were filled with wailing, and numerous guards and civilians were killed and injured.
Some guards wanted to use the cover of vehicles to shoot back, but the streets were full of people running around.
The assassin blended into the crowd, using civilian bodies as cover. The guards could not fire at will. They could only let others kill him when hesitating.
Not only on both sides of the street, but also on the roofs of buildings on both sides of the street, pairs of figures suddenly appeared beside the low wall. The rifle bullets in their hands seemed to be free of charge, and the muzzle flames poured bullets wildly towards the convoy below.
Mira sat in the glass carriage, looking at this scene in horror through the bullet-riddled glass.
Although she has experienced a lot before, she has never really seen this most real tragedy in the world.
In less than half a minute, more than half of the Royal Guards were killed or wounded, making it almost difficult to form an effective combat effectiveness.
Keith was hiding behind the hood of the car, holding a gun, and bullets were flying over his head.
The wireless headset and walkie-talkie were all disabled, and he was unable to direct the other guards to fight.
Moreover, the parade this time was more than 100 meters long, and the other party cut off communication means, making it impossible for them to see each other from the beginning to the end.
"hateful!"
Keith glanced at the glass carriage next to him. Mira in the glass cover was temporarily safe, but only temporarily.
He changed his mind and rushed out even if he only brought the queen with him!
Having made up his mind, Chisi rushed out of the cover of the car, made a tactical roll, and came to the carriage.
"Kiss!"
Mira in the carriage was surprised and frightened when she saw it was Keith.
She was sitting in a tall carriage, and through the glass cover, she could clearly see some of the situation on the battlefield.
Countless guards were shot and fell to the ground, and civilians suffered numerous casualties.
The assassins came prepared, but the remaining people were already saved.
"Chisi! Run away!"
Mira slapped her hands on the front glass of the carriage and shouted loudly to Keith outside.
But Keith outside couldn't hear her voice. He quickly came to the two horses in front, pulled the jockey who had been beaten to death from the saddle, and climbed onto the horse himself.
"drive!"
"drive!"
Chisi kicked the horse's belly twice and tightened the reins with one hand.
The restless horses finally found a direction to move forward, slowly bypassed the vehicles in front of them, and ran toward the end of the street.
This is the only hope. All vehicles cannot be driven, but carriages can still run.
The assassins on the roof also saw Chis trying to drive Mira away, and they all turned their guns and shot in the direction of the carriage.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——
Countless bullets flew by. Although most of the bullets were blocked by the bulletproof glass of the carriage, many bullets still hit the horses and Keith.
Little bright red flowers bloomed on the snow-white horse's back, and the suit on Keith's back was torn apart by bullets, revealing the bulletproof vest riddled with holes underneath.
But despite this, Keith still endured the severe pain in his back, lying on the horse's back, painfully tightening the horse's reins.
A line of blood flowed from the cuffs, left from the clenched fist, and flowed along the carriage's path, leaving a slender red line like a timer.
Mira in the carriage shed tears of distress, but could only weakly pat the glass and let out a heartbreaking cry.
"Why?"
"Why!"
Gradually, Keith's body could no longer hold up, and he fell off the side of the horse.
The horses hit by the bullets were frightened and broke free again, struggling in all directions.
Eventually, the connection between the carriage and the horses was broken, the injured horses fled in all directions, and the carriage, driven by the wheels, crashed out of control into a roadside shop.
In the violent impact, Mira in the carriage lost her balance, hit her head against the tempered glass, and fainted.
…
At the same time, when Qin Zhibo noticed that it might be an EMP weapon, he felt that something was wrong.
The moment he heard the gunfire, he immediately put on the Ring, blended into the chaotic crowd on the street, and quietly approached an assassin from behind.
However, he did not dare to make a direct sneak attack, because these assassins might be Mi. Go pretending to be Mi. Go, and Mi. Go could telepathically detect targets within a few meters, so stealth attacks were of no use.
But after ten seconds of observation, he felt more and more like this assassin looked like a human being.
First of all, this assassin did not use M.G.'s electric gun, but a human gun.
Secondly, when the assassin was shooting, his bullets slightly bypassed the civilians on the opposite street, so he was not shooting indiscriminately.
A little conscience, but not much.
But if it is the Mi-Go, there is no need to bypass civilians and shoot, because the Mi-Go race does not have moral values.
Based on these two points, Qin Zhibo judged that the assassin might be a human.
He materialized the Oath Keeper Sword in his hand and quietly approached from the side.
When he was only one meter away from the assassin, the Oath Keeper sword suddenly swung down.
"ah--!"
The assassin was raising his gun to shoot, but he didn't notice anything. Suddenly an invisible sharp blade flashed past, and his right hand holding the gun said "goodbye" to his arm.
Feeling the severe pain, the assassin fell to the ground, covering his broken arm with his other hand, and let out a heart-breaking roar.
But Qin Zhibo showed no mercy and turned to observe the severed hand that fell on the ground.
From the cross-section of the incision of the severed hand, bright red blood flowed out in a "pop-pop" manner, and the muscles and nerves inside were even beating faintly.
It's human!
Qin Zhibo was shocked. He didn't expect that human beings were the biggest threat.
However, according to Chis, most of Kilard's supporters have been captured, and the remaining ones should not be able to launch a large-scale attack.
But now these people are not only well-trained and well-equipped, but they even use EMP?
At this moment, the roar of the assassin whose hand was cut off attracted the assassins upstairs.
When the assassin by the low wall saw it, he immediately turned his gun and fired several bullets at the assassin lying on the ground.
The bullets came like a thunderbolt, and one of the bullets hit the assassin's head crookedly, killing him.
Qin Zhibo, who was standing aside and in an invisible state, saw it and was shocked.
Are these people actually dead soldiers?
Which party are they from?
…
After the gunshots, which were like thunderous thunderbolts, continued for a minute, the streets were gradually cleared.
Civilians were dying, injured, and fleeing. The streets were either wailing or littered with the dead and injured.
Sparse gunshots still sounded from time to time throughout the street, as the surviving guards were still making their last stand.
However, these small gunshots were soon covered by more gunshots like a flood, leaving no chance to breathe.
This situation is like purgatory on earth.
It is unimaginable that this scene would happen in the capital of a country.
After shooting for a while, the assassins on the roof saw that the street was gradually being cleared, and the first round of bullets was almost exhausted, so they began to change bullets for the rifles in their hands.
The assassins on the ground were approaching the parade, preparing to clean up the battlefield.
Vespania is a small, neutral country. Although it has tens of thousands of troops, they are not stationed in the center of the capital city.
Moreover, all nearby communications have been cut off, making it impossible for the news of the attack here to be transmitted.
The only hope is that other places will react and provide support if they find that live broadcasts are suddenly interrupted.
But by that time, I'm afraid everything will be over...
One by one, assassins wearing black cloaks inspected the bodies of the guards and the people in each escort vehicle.
When encountering a living victim, the assassin will not hesitate to shoot him, even if the victim has already asked for mercy.
There are still a few guards at the end of the parade who are using vehicles as cover and are still resisting. However, under the heavy firepower of the assassins, it is only a matter of time before they are breached.
And the most important thing is that the carriage Queen Mira was riding crashed into the shop at the end of the street and did not escape the sight of the assassins.
Several assassins had already discovered the location of the carriage. Through simple communication in sign language, two assassins went to check it out with guns in hand.
Just when there was deathly silence in the air, the harsh sound caused by metal friction suddenly broke the silence.
Four golden sparks arranged in a rectangular shape slid across the roof of a black car, and then a piece of the roof was kicked off, and a long-haired man in a white kimono jumped out, standing on the roof of the car.
The long-haired man held a knife in his left hand and held the handle tightly in his right hand. His angry eyes were full of murderous aura.
The two assassins standing nearby reacted immediately, turned their guns, and pulled the triggers without saying a word.
The black muzzle spurted out dazzling flames, and the bullets flew out of the fire and went straight to the man's body.
However, the assassin did not know that the anger in the man's heart at this time was more intense than the flame from the muzzle.
"ha--!"
Ishikawa Goemon let out a roar, and instantly pulled out the Zantetsu sword in his hand, and countless sword lights slid in front of him almost at the same time.
When, when, when...
A few crisp sounds of striking iron.
The assassins were stunned for a moment, not understanding what happened. They only knew that these bullets did not hurt the man at all.
Just when the assassin was about to shoot, Ishikawa Goemon jumped with all his strength on his legs and flew into the air.
The iron sword in his hand was swung in the air, and a sharp cold light flashed across the assassin's body.
The two assassins were stunned for a moment, as if they had been hit by a restraining spell, and they stood still where they were.
A second later, the bodies of the two men were cut into two parts at the waist, leaving a clean cross-section including the submachine gun in their hands.
As Ishikawa Goemon eliminated the two assassins in front of him, the car door behind him suddenly opened, and a man in a blue and black suit wearing a hat and a man in a red suit with a monkey-like face walked out.
Although the man in the blue and black suit looks thin, he looks like a thug in a suit, holding a Barrett heavy sniper in his hands that is seriously inconsistent with his body shape.
As soon as he exerted force on his shoulder, Barrett, who weighed 16 kilograms, was lifted up and the gun was pointed at the roof on the street.
At this time, the assassin on the roof realized what was happening here and turned his gun to shoot.
But Jigen Daisuke's shooting speed was faster. As soon as he pulled the gun, a large-caliber bullet ejected from the muzzle.
Bang!
Barrett made a muffled sound and hit the assassin on the roof almost instantly.
Poof!
The bullet penetrated the body, and the brutal force from bottom to top sent the assassin flying two meters into the air. Blood and flesh were scattered all over the floor, and a big hole was opened in his chest.
Even though the assassin was wearing a body armor, he still looked a little underwhelmed when faced with Barrett, who could even penetrate steel plates.
Lupine III also took out his ancestral Walter P38 and shot at the assassins still standing on the street.
Kudo Yusaku, Mouri Kogoro, and the Zenigata Police Department in the other car saw Lupine III and others taking action, and they also made up their minds to fight back.
Although the two groups in the two cars did not communicate, they all tacitly chose to endure it instead of getting out of the car immediately.
This is because they already understand that they are being ambushed, and even if they come out to resist, they will fall into a passive situation.
In addition, there are too many civilians watching the ceremony on the street. Once the opponent is forced to carry out indiscriminate killings, the number of casualties will only be higher, and the streets will become rivers of blood.
Now everyone who could escape on the streets had fled, and all the assassins had exposed themselves from their bunkers.
