The Ancient Truth Could Not Be Hidden from Me Forever

At that moment, this war had ultimately been watched from the sidelines by others.

But on the Spore Evolution forum, no one was dwelling on that. Instead, everyone was utterly shocked by this new type of weapon! Even the scientists' expressions changed slightly.

They had to admit that this new weapon was incredibly powerful and had far too many advantages.

A gigantic magnifying glass more than fifty square kilometers in size could focus light, instantly producing a beam whose temperature could very well reach hundreds of millions of degrees. Even the core of a nuclear explosion was no hotter than that.

What did that amount to? A beam carrying the temperature of a nuclear blast's core at all times.

At the same time, it was an infinitely reusable energy weapon with no losses whatsoever, capable of firing endlessly.

Those two points alone completely outclassed nuclear weapons, which destroyed land through severe radioactive pollution. After all, the cost of manufacturing every nuclear weapon was simply terrifying.

This was a Celestial Weapon. Harnessing nature's immense power for infinite energy was what made it truly terrifying.

Even more frightening was that, unlike intercontinental missiles and other nuclear weapons, which could still be detected and intercepted by anti-missile systems in flight, this kind of instantaneous strike had no launch trajectory at all. Its strategic significance was terrifying.

It gave no time to react.

Given enough time, it could even completely destroy an entire continent. Its energy was infinite, so it could keep firing continuously and sweep across the land.

It was practically the Damocles Sword of myth, hanging above one's head.

People in several research institutes began discussing it. "The only flaw is the damage caused as the beam passes through the atmosphere. This planet's atmosphere is thin, so it does not matter much
