The God's Cane, formerly known as the God's Cane Space-Based Kinetic Energy Weapon System, NATO completed the deployment of the weapon system in 2030. But by now, its combat form was no longer limited to kinetic energy attacks.
For a hundred years, NATO continued to improve the weapon system. Although the core attack ability was still the vertical strike of the tungsten rod, in addition to this ability, NATO also added high power microwave weapon (HPM), wide area electromagnetic pulse (EMP) projection, and ion shield. It was completely transformed into a hedgehog-like existence – "Near-Earth Orbit Weapon Platform."
Although he already felt the power of this weapon in the virtual world, after listening to Lin Lin's explanation, Jiang Chen was still shocked.
Seeing Jiang Chen's shocked expression, Lin Lin proudly raised her head, paused, and then continued.
"That thing was indeed powerful. In order to shoot down that thing, PAC launched 27 nuclear bombs into the low-Earth orbit, but unfortunately, they were all intercepted. In the end, using the energy cooldown state of the God's Cane's HMP strike on Wanghai's Holy Shield system, with the help of the special forces, and at the cost of more than ten low-Earth orbit landing ships, they finally managed to take it down. "
"However, before the" God's Cane "could even warm up, NATO, with the determination to not let it fall into the hands of the enemy, initiated the self-destruct program of the God's Cane. Therefore, the super weapon that has been in service for nearly 150 years became space junk. "
No one knew this weapon better than Lin Lin. Since she used to be a PAC researcher, she more or less knew the details of the weapon.
"Wait? Space junk? "
"Yes, is there a problem?" Lin Lin tilted her head.
"The God's Cane didn't fall to the ground?" Jiang Chen asked with a frown.
"Of course not, I can attest to that. The World Alliance Organization established after the war considered recovering the wreckage in the low-Earth orbit, but the proposal was not implemented because not long after, the escapists' space colonization plan was passed with an overwhelming vote … You should know what happened next. Six space colonization ships flew into deep space. "
"Is that so?" Jiang Chen said thoughtfully.
"Why do you suddenly ask this?" Lin Lin didn't understand.
"Someone used a supercomputer to calculate and analyze that the wreckage of the God's Cane landed in the center of Wanghai."
"That's impossible, you've been tricked," Lin Lin denied without hesitation.
Have I been cheated?
Jiang Chen fell into deep thought.
Or could it be that everyone was fooled?
It was a troubled time.
…
In an antique room, there was a pocket-sized incense burner on the table, with green smoke rising from it. A man with white sideburns was leaning on a recliner with his eyes closed, as if he was taking a nap. Beside him stood a woman in a cheongsam. Although her beautiful appearance could not be considered beautiful, she had a virtuous charm.
Such an archaic scene clearly did not match the skyscrapers outside the window.
To be able to build such a large mansion in the Sixth Street where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, the owner must be quite capable.
Indeed, the man lying on the chair was Cao Jinsong, the boss of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce, a member of the Group of Ten committee.
There was a knock on the door, and the man raised his eyelids slightly.
"Come in." His voice was slow and gentle, but it didn't sound old at all.
The door slowly opened, and a woman walked in.
Her face was exactly the same as the beauty in the cheongsam standing beside him.
It was as if they were carved from the same mold.
Other than twins, there was only one explanation, and that was clones.
"The nine committee members have sent a large fleet to the city center. Among them, the Double-headed Bull Chamber of Commerce is the largest, with 207 people, two spider tanks, five armored vehicles … "
Listening to the secretary's report, Cao Jinsong narrowed his eyes and nodded.
When she finished, he paused for a moment before he continued.
"What about Zhao Chenwu? Did he do anything? "
This person was slightly smarter than the other council members. The alluring glow of the crystals didn't completely blind his eyes.
"He sent scouts to Luzhou and also sent a fleet to the city center. But their fleet didn't move forward recklessly, they just followed behind our fleet." The secretary-like woman pushed up her glasses as she said.
Cao Jinsong suddenly laughed. The wrinkles carved on his face bloomed, making him look like a kind old man.
However, the laughter carried a hint of eeriness.
"Although everyone wants to be the sword wielder, if the sword doesn't exist at all, then it would be interesting."
Solid theoretical basis, and the spying of foreign enemies. Just these two points seemed to be enough to prove the existence of God's Scepter.
Based on the reason that they must not let others obtain it, everyone reached for the illusory sword.
"Is it time already?" Cao Jinsong looked at the smoke on the incense burner and smiled.
The expressionless secretary just looked at him quietly and didn't say a word.
"Give me that thing."
"It's ready." A smile appeared on the secretary's face. She took out a holographic computer pen from her pocket and handed it to him.
He took the holographic computer pen, but his index finger stopped on the start button.
Two faces were reflected on the metal shell, one old, the other young.
The young face belonged to his wife. She was very weak and didn't even survive the first year. Before she died, he promised her that he would bring order to this chaotic wasteland.
Then he would go down to accompany her.
After all civilizations collapsed, a new civilization would be born from the ruins. The new civilization reborn from the fire would be unprecedentedly powerful. It would learn the lessons of the old civilization and abandon the weaknesses of the old civilization.
In this wasteland full of radiation, not only did mutant claws and human marksmanship evolve, but something of a higher level also evolved.
Thirteen years ago, the wall of the Sixth Street was completed. In this settlement built by the survivors, the fire of civilization was nurtured.
But this fire had been silent for too long.
Even if the expedition brought prosperity to it, it only stopped at the level of prosperity.
Every time it touched on its own interests, the council would argue endlessly.
Without a unified voice giving orders, nothing could be done.
He had had enough of the endless quarrels.
The people of the Northern Alliance Area may come, but definitely not now. They definitely didn't come for the God's Scepter, but for something else.
Ten years ago, the Northern Alliance Area completed its unification.
If this continued, the Sixth Street would not be their opponent and would only become the dust of history. But everything here was his blood, sweat, and tears. He couldn't accept this ending.
This piece of land needed a dictatorship!
"Whether I am a hero or a sinner, can only be judged by history?" Cao Jinsong muttered to himself as he closed his eyes.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked at the secretary in front of him.
"Qin Lian, can you lend me some courage?"
The woman didn't say anything and just put her hand on his. The woman in the cheongsam standing beside him also walked over in silence and extended her hand.
He took a deep breath, and the crazed expression returned to his face.
"Then, let's begin."
He pressed the button.
A huge fire ignited, and the Crimson Chamber of Commerce's mansion in the Sixth Street was burned to the ground.
Rumor had it that it was the conspiracy of the Zhao Corporation who was after the "treasure".
At the same time, in the city center ten kilometers away, a huge fire ignited at the same time.
It was the smoke of civil war.
