Chapter 802: Shock

In the world of Cthulhu, Duanmu Huai still remembers that a victim once wrote this in his diary.

The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest fear is the fear of the unknown.

And now, at this moment, the soldiers of Military Technology finally felt this most ancient and strongest fear.

"What is this?"

The giant armored warriors, tens of meters tall, were burning with flames, like tigers as big as tanks, unimaginable falcons larger than humans, and dragons that almost only appeared in the fantasy world. They completely made the soldiers of Military Technology at a loss. They held their weapons tightly in panic, looking at the monsters surrounding them, and didn't know what to do for a while.

But soon, they didn't need to think about this problem.

"———————!"

The steel giant raised his foot and stepped hard on the convoy in front of him. And those armored vehicles made of steel were like children's plastic toys under the feet of the steel giant, and were easily crushed into pieces. Then it clenched the sword in its hand, roared, and smashed directly at the battlefield!

"Retreat, retreat immediately!!"

At this moment, the commander of the military technology no longer said anything about attacking. While he was giving orders loudly, he desperately urged the driver to turn around immediately and try to escape from this area. However, just as the command vehicle turned a corner, he saw a pure white dragon falling from the sky and hitting the command vehicle with one claw, preventing it from moving further.

In the command vehicle, the commander looked at the dragon's cold eyes staring at him in horror, then took a deep breath and opened his mouth.

"No——!"

At this moment, the commander almost instinctively opened the car door and turned around to run, but then the whistling flames turned into a torrent, which completely enveloped it and turned it into nothing.

"Bang! Bang Bang Bang!!"

The magic lizard tank retreated quickly, while firing shells at the front. Countless missiles were emitted from the magic lizard tank and hit its own position, but their attack did not achieve the desired effect at all. The tiger, whose body was burning with flames, dodged the tank's shooting with unimaginable speed and agility, then jumped up and hit the front armor of the magic lizard tank with one claw, instantly smashing the originally solid tank into pieces.

"Da da da da da!!"

At the same time, the battle in the sky continued. The soldiers riding the airborne vehicles and armed helicopters raised their guns, aimed at the surrounding falcons and fired desperately, while raising their altitude to try to leave the battlefield. However, even though the bullets shot down many falcons, they still rushed up one after another. They tore and pecked at the helicopters and airborne vehicles with their claws and beaks. Soon, the steel flying in the sky was torn apart by the eagles like cans, and turned into balls of exploding fire that fell to the ground.

D didn't even make a move. She just floated in the air and quietly watched the battlefield in front of her.

At the same time, this scene had spread all over the world.

"How could it be possible........."

Watching the scene of the military technology armed forces being beaten on the TV screen, Miles felt cold in his hands and feet. Although on the surface this was a private operation of military technology, she also instructed the other party to broadcast the whole process in order to expose the true face of the woman in front of the global audience.

However, she did not expect that things would turn out like this!

What on earth is this?

President Miles's mind was blank, and she stood there blankly, like a statue.

"Mr. President, do you need to withdraw troops?"

At this moment, a voice came from Miles' ears, and she came back to her senses.

"Withdraw troops? Withdraw what troops?"

"Have you forgotten? In order to ensure the smooth reception of military technology to Night City, our troops are already waiting at the border."

"Oh, yes... yes, yes, that's right."

Hearing the reminder from his subordinates, Miles came back to his senses.

"Yes, that's right, and our army... Order the Air Force to prepare! Lock the position and launch missiles!"

"Mr. President?"

Looking at the mad President Miles in front of him, the Minister of Defense next to him was stunned. He originally wanted to withdraw the troops directly. After all, it was the military technology that was lost, not them, but President Miles was...

"Attack, I said, attack! We must destroy them!!"

"...Yes."

Soon, a series of orders were issued, and the fighter planes roared through the sky and flew towards the direction of Night City. In the radar, the giant armor was clearly visible.

"The target has been found, locked--fire!"

The fighter planes speeding at supersonic speed locked onto the steel giant, and then several missiles were fired and rushed towards the steel giant. Facing the attack from the sky, the steel giant raised his head, and before he even made any moves, he saw several missiles directly hit the chest of the steel giant, bursting with flames.

However, all this was meaningless.

Even the missile attack that was powerful enough to destroy the city did not hurt the giant in the slightest. Instead, the iron giant raised his left hand and pointed it toward the sky. The next moment, countless thunderbolts instantly covered everything, and the flying fighters were directly shattered by the thunderbolts, turning into fireballs and smashing towards the ground.

But this was not the end yet.

[Judge, New America has launched tactical nuclear weapons at Night City, and it is expected to reach the destination in five minutes]

"It's a stupid choice, but it's not surprising."

Hearing Lumiel's answer, D snorted. In this world, the use of tactical nuclear weapons is not as strict as before. In fact, in the corporate war, both sides have thrown nuclear weapons many times, and even Arasaka Tower has been bombed by a nuclear bomb once.

D will certainly not be bombed obediently, and in fact, she has already made a plan.

"It's not polite to not reciprocate, Lumiel, start the Star Project."

[……………Do you really want to do this? ]

"Of course."

[………Okay, I understand]

A tactical nuclear weapon flew across the sky and flew towards the direction of Night City. It has received an order to completely destroy the city. This is President Miles's last choice. Although it is reasonable to do such a thing in non-wartime would be condemned, but President Miles has no choice.

Ever since D summoned those weird creatures and crushed the armed forces of military technology, Miles knew that if she couldn't completely destroy the angel and Night City today, then the new United States would be finished!

So, she gambled everything and chose the last blow!

But unfortunately, her decision failed.

"Mr. President, Tianjian 1 has lost control! Someone has forcibly hacked into its system! The direction of Tianjian 1 has been turned!"

"What? Where is it flying now?"

"Universe—it is flying towards the universe—it has left the atmosphere—we have lost the signal of Tianjian 1."

"Huh... ..."

Hearing this, President Miles breathed a sigh of relief. For a moment, she thought that the other party would manipulate the nuclear bomb to deal with her in return. But now it seems that it is not the case...

"No, Mr. President, is there something wrong?"

"What is it?"

"We have detected a large object flying from outside the atmosphere... The destination is here!!"

"What is it?"

"It is... the Crystal Palace Space Station!"

"What!?"

Myers was shocked when she heard the report from her subordinates. She rushed out of the office and went to the balcony to look up at the sky. Then, she saw an unimaginable scene - in the blue sky, a huge space station was flying in flames. Its unique shell was not unfamiliar to President Miles at all. It was the most famous space station - Crystal Palace.

And now, it was spraying flames and smashing straight towards his official residence!

"No————!"

Looking at the huge space station in front of her, Miles raised her hands in despair to block it in front of her. This was the only resistance she could do.

But that was it.

"Boom——————!!!!"

The space station, which was as big as half a city, fell to the ground without mercy. The violent explosion spread out like a hurricane, tearing everything around it apart. The New American Residence, which was the first to be hit, was directly dissipated in the explosion and turned into a pile of broken rubble. The earth began to shake, and people screamed and fled in all directions, trying to escape the storm of destruction.

But unfortunately, it was too late.

[Confirmed that the Crystal Palace space station fell, and the radius of 15 kilometers has been completely destroyed]

"Look, this is called efficiency."

Hearing Lumiel's answer, D smiled coldly. Of course, she would not be stupid enough to use nuclear bombs to harm the living environment of mankind. For D, there are more things that can be used, such as the space station in space right now—the Crystal Palace is one of her targets. It just so happens that this space casino itself is also a source of evil. A group of capitalists rely on their wealth to withdraw from the world of paradise, and they are high above in the space station. It seems that no matter how many people die on the ground, it has nothing to do with them.

But now, they should have understood that when an avalanche breaks out, no snowflake is innocent. Want to stay out of it? That depends on whether you agree or not.

That's why she let Lumiel invade the control system of the Crystal Palace Space Station, and then ignite their jets, forcing the space station to change direction and fall to the earth, directly hitting the capital of the new United States.

Efficient, convenient, and pollution-free.

It really works.

Thinking of this, D retracted his gaze and looked at the battlefield in front of him—the armed forces of military technology had been completely destroyed, leaving only the burning wreckage of vehicles and corpses.

"Okay, things here are over, let's go back."
