Five-Path Rotary Furnace!
One hour ago.
In the Xuan Hall, the sixtieth emperor of the empire formally issued the order to Air Force Admiral Budo to deploy medium-range ballistic missiles.
Thirty minutes ago.
The missile unit, which belongs to the Air Force, received an order from the Air Force Headquarters. After a series of verification procedures, it was finally confirmed that there were no errors.
The order was once again relayed to the mountains and ridges located south of the Imperial Capital, beside the Magu Heights.
This mountain range is the empire's missile launch site, where most of its missiles are hidden.
However, their ballistic missiles do not require launch silos or launchers. All that is needed is for someone to input the target coordinates into the missile body and then set the launch time, and the missile can automatically ignite and launch.
Honestly, if ballistic missiles weren't so large and heavy that they would be difficult for an individual to carry, they could theoretically be used as individual combat equipment.
Yes, it's 'cutting-edge technology'!
Ten minutes ago.
The missile unit underground at Magu Heights first placed the ballistic missiles into the launch channel, then installed the 'Five-Path Rotary Furnace' inside the warhead according to orders, and then input the azimuth coordinates sent by the Imperial Intelligence Corps.
At last.
Double-check that it's ready to launch. Once confirmed, initiate the launch!
The next moment.
With a deafening roar, the green medium-range missile spewed out a fierce flame from its tail and instantly flew from underground space to the surface at an extremely high speed.
At that moment, it had just reached the speed of sound.
Next, the ballistic missile's speed increases and its altitude above the ground increases. During this process, it continuously adjusts its trajectory by occasionally tilting or rolling its wings.
At this point, its speed had reached three times the speed of sound.
When the ballistic missile reaches an altitude of about 200 kilometers above the ground, which is the 'thermal layer' of the world's atmosphere, its propulsion engine automatically shuts off.
Next, it relies on inertia to fly towards the coordinate position, gradually forming a beautiful free parabolic trajectory.
At this point, its speed had exceeded ten times the speed of sound and was still accelerating, completing the steps of 'first stage separation', 'fairing separation', 'second stage separation', and 'third stage separation' in sequence.
Modern ballistic missiles, after continuous separation, return to the interior of the atmosphere with only a warhead and a terminal booster, leaving a rather beautiful pale blue plume.
Soon.
Even the terminal booster automatically pushes itself away, allowing the conical green warhead to activate its spin generator and stabilize its trajectory through the centrifugal force generated by high-speed rotation.
At this point, its speed had reached its limit, and its surface began to glow red and flame from friction.
At the same time, we finally 'saw' the continuous snow-capped mountains below and a magnificent 'white Titans' over a thousand meters high.
The latter was looking up at him, as if waiting for him to throw himself into her arms.
Since that's the case.
Let's give it a try!
All personnel in the snow valley stood still, gazing at the towering snow-capped mountain backdrop of Commander Bullet's division, silently praying in their hearts.
Sudden.
The entire world seemed to fall silent, and at the same time, an extremely bright white light poured out from the sides and top of the 'Snow Mountain Titans', followed by a rumbling sound that washed over its body like waves.
An aerial view.
Douglas Bullet, transformed into a snow-capped mountain and a thousand-meter-tall Titans, used his palms, about ten meters apart, to block a massive energy ball that was white with a hint of purple, accompanied by lightning and thunder, and was expanding rapidly at a visible speed.
[Boom!]
Illuminated by towering electric light, a massive mushroom cloud slowly rose into the sky.
Even this white mountain range, which includes more than a dozen snow-capped peaks, was tinged with purple as it trembled violently. All the air was compressed into layers of air waves as it vibrated, causing all the surrounding snow-capped mountains to erupt in terrifying avalanches.
Fortunately, Bullet had anticipated this and brought the area where the Star Gate Base was located under his control, so no matter how the avalanche roared or crashed, it could not break through the towering, wall-like rocks.
[Boom------]
It's unclear how much time passed, but when the white light flashed by, when all the lightning and thunder disappeared, and when the Shockwave spread further away...
The clouds in the sky disappeared, the cold wind stopped, and the falling snowflakes were swept away.
The officers, soldiers, and researchers in the base looked up at the "snow mountain Titans" who had stood tall for them and were relieved to find that his "back" was undamaged.
This means that the attack just now did not break through Bullet's defenses.
What they didn't see was that the 'Snow Mountain Titans's' frontal view was a horrific sight.
Its hands and arms had vanished without a trace, and its chest looked as if someone had scooped out a hole, the sunken surface now turned into molten lava and scorched earth, with viscous magma flowing slowly like 'blood'.
"It's so hot!"
Bullet, inside the 'Snow Mountain Titans', took a deep breath and stared speechlessly at the thin layer of soil that had melted into magma. The explosion had indeed almost affected his main body.
"However, Taiyi the description of a nuclear bomb; it feels more like Raiden so concentrated it's almost viscous."
If another one were to fly in at this moment, he would have no choice but to absorb it as quickly as possible and merge it into one with the surrounding snow-capped mountains.
But what if multiple ones explode at once?
Even if Bullet felt comfortable, he couldn't be much better off, and he couldn't guarantee the safety of the base below at all, which made him report the situation back to the Sea Star Homeworld immediately.
From the Empire's perspective.
Captain Sabatini, who was in charge of commanding the front-line Imperial Intelligence Corps in White Horse Town, had already witnessed the entire incident using his Teigu, 'Thousand-Mile Heavenly Eye'.
This left him utterly astonished, his mouth agape for a long time.
Whether it was a medium-range ballistic missile, a 'Five-Path Rotary Furnace,' or a 'snow mountain Titans' towering over a thousand meters, each one swept over his spiritual world like a tsunami.
As the captain of the Imperial Intelligence Corps, this was the first time he had ever known that the Empire possessed such terrifying weapons, and what was even more terrifying was that the enemy had actually withstood them head-on.
Not only Captain Sabatini, but also the other men and women in the office were stunned.
The ultimate technique of 'Thousand-Mile Heavenly Eye' is to project the image seen by the Teigu Arm through the Imperial Arm, which resembles a monocular telescope, into the air as a virtual screen.
The task of these men and women was to describe the images they saw in the simplest terms and to quickly draw them onto a blank sheet of paper using their superb drawing skills.
We need to draw several more and arrange them into a comic strip format so that Minister Najenda and the intelligence analysts at Imperial Headquarters can observe more details.
"This is terrifying! Compile this into intelligence and send it back to Imperial Capital immediately!"
Upon realizing what was happening, Captain Sabatini immediately lost all composure and began roaring at his men.
His voice trembled, his body shook, for he was filled with fear.
Those snow-capped Titans, nearly a thousand meters tall, wouldn't even be a match for three Admiral in the military, right?
He now only hoped that the Empire still had enough of those Thunderstorm weapons in stock, so that they could release a few more next time!
