Nuclear Explosion

At this moment, all the top ten countries on the entire Blue Star, whether they were national leaders who were working or important figures who were resting, were awakened.

Flame Dragon Kingdom, Sunset Empire, Snowfield Empire, Great Jin Kingdom, Yellow Dragon Kingdom, Central Plains Kingdom, Maple Leaf Kingdom, and so on...

All eyes turned to the Starshine Federation.

After all, the Starry Federation mobilized more than 200,000 troops to defend the Starry Spirit Platform.

Although this army of 200,000 has military discipline, there are always some mavericks who take pictures of the Cheng Ying mechs slashing at fighter jets and bombarding the Xingling Platform, and post them online to ask for votes and likes.

Some soldiers who were not affected by the electromagnetic pulse even turned on their mobile phones to live stream, completely ignoring the battle situation outside.

After all, the distribution of benefits from the outcome of a war belongs to the state, but the money from live-streaming tips belongs to the individual.

Who would be willing to risk their life for a country controlled by capital for a mere tens of thousands of federal dollars?

In this situation, intelligence agencies of major countries do not even need to send spies to conduct detailed investigations; they can obtain firsthand information about the battlefield simply by watching videos.

Video conferences are being held among leaders of various countries.

Different small groups and alliances constantly communicate with each other.

In particular, the nine most powerful countries that legally possess nuclear weapons and the ten countries that illegally possess nuclear weapons gathered together via video immediately.

They have received notification from President Edward that they will activate the space-based platform, launch Torch missiles, and destroy the target.

These missiles, installed on space-based platforms and launched from space, can accelerate to 20 to 30 times the speed of sound in a very short time. With the current technology of Blue Star, they are simply impossible to intercept and are the most threatening nuclear missiles in the world today.

There is no other.

The news caused a stir among everyone in the conference room.

"The Star Spirit Platform project is the Star Glory Federation's largest investment of money and resources. Which country would dare to send people to destroy the Star Spirit Platform? Wouldn't that drive the Star Glory Federation crazy?"

"The shape of that weapon of war... looks a lot like the concept art that has appeared in many works by the Tianhuang Kingdom! Is it because you were forced to possess nuclear weapons and harbored resentment that you destroyed this key project of the Xingyao Federation in an attempt to start a world war?"

"Our Tianhuang Kingdom is a peace-loving nation. Representative, you must not make false accusations here."

Various voices rang out from the room, and the atmosphere of the meeting was no worse than that of a vegetable market.

"Alright, gentlemen, enough of this nonsense. We must find out which country is behind this operation!"

The representative of the Flame Dragon Kingdom couldn't stand it any longer and stepped forward to speak, while turning his gaze in two directions. "Don't the representatives of the Snow Region Empire and the Yellow Dragon Kingdom have anything to say? Battery pulse weapons and individual combat armor—your two countries are leaders in these two fields."

Before the representatives of the two countries could speak, a stout man declared in a deep voice, "I declare that my Green Field Kingdom is responsible for this operation. The Star Spirit Platform was bombed by my Green Field Kingdom. This is our countermeasure against the sanctions imposed on our country by the Star Radiance Federation."

All eyes in the room fell on the representative of Green Field Kingdom, and the next moment most of the people burst into laughter.

At that moment, a beam of light shone out from the conference room.

It was Edward, the president of the Starry Federation.

He said solemnly, "Our Starry Federation is suffering from an unprecedented terrorist attack. I don't know where these terrorists come from, but our Starry Federation has always taken a zero-tolerance and absolute leniency stance towards terrorists! If these terrorists think that they can intimidate our Starry Federation and make the great Starry Federation bow down with such violent means, they are sorely mistaken."

The president of the Starry Federation declared in a resounding voice, "Their actions will only invite the most severe retaliation from the Starry Federation! The Starry Federation is irreconcilably opposed to terrorists, and we will spare no expense to achieve this!"

As he spoke, he pressed the red button in his suitcase in the video.

To ensure that their launch of the Torch missile was indeed solely for eliminating the terrorists who were destroying the Star Spirit Platform, and also to avoid triggering a world war, the Star Glory Federation released the stealth band of the Free Space-Based Platform, allowing everyone to clearly observe the movements of this national strategic platform.

Therefore, the reconnaissance departments of those top countries were able to pinpoint the location of the Freedom space-based platform and learn of the Torch missile launch immediately.

Huanglong Kingdom.

"It seems the Starshine Federation has truly suffered heavy losses and is now utterly enraged."

President Liu Yunqi listened to the report from those around him, then turned his gaze to the prime ministers and kings of the Great Jin Kingdom and the Central Plains Kingdom in the conference room, asking with a somewhat strange expression, "Really, it wasn't you who did it?"

His gaze focused on King Li Zhenyuan of the Middle Kingdom: "That kind of mecha... is very similar to the mecha blueprints that your Middle Kingdom's Nantianmen project team received. Is it really not a brand-new weapon of war that you manufactured based on those blueprints?"

Hearing that this was Liu Yunqi's third inquiry, Li Zhenyuan said helplessly, "Although we obtained the blueprints for that mecha from the Nantianmen project team, according to our research, these blueprints are simply not feasible to realize. Many parts involve a field called 'psychic energy,' and according to experts, this field may simply be something that even the 'Qianxing people' themselves cannot understand, so they used 'psychic energy' as an excuse to gloss over it."

Although Prime Minister Sun Shiwan of the Great Jin Kingdom had some doubts, he still believed Li Zhenyuan's statement.

After all, given the performance this mech has demonstrated...

They directly broke through the Starshine Federation's strongest defense zone.

If the Middle-earth Kingdom truly possessed such a powerful weapon, why would it be so cautious and timid in the international community as it is now?

In a three-way cooperation, how could the Yellow Dragon Kingdom be allowed to take the lead?

"This mech is closely related to the Nantianmen project team no matter what. It would be best if His Majesty Zhenyuan ordered a thorough investigation."

Liu Yun asked curiously.

"Certainly."

Li Zhenyuan understood this principle and glanced at the big screen.

The Torch missile has been launched and is now accelerating to Mach 24, hurtling straight toward the Shadow Mech that is being locked onto by a large number of satellites.

"The premise is that this mech can escape unscathed from this round of attacks."

"To escape unscathed..."

Li Zhenyuan's words made Sun Shiwan hesitate. "The Torch missile carries sixteen nuclear warheads, and when it attacks a single target, it can be described as a saturation bombardment. If even such a missile cannot destroy this mech... then doesn't that mean... there is no weapon in the world that can destroy this mech!? If a weapon that can be called the pinnacle of global warfare is really exposed as belonging to a certain force... how should we deal with them?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yunqi and Li Zhenyuan both fell into deep thought.

Yes.

If this mech can truly withstand the bombardment of the Torch nuclear missile, it undoubtedly means that its combat power is already among the world's best, and it is not unrealistic to expect that one mech can suppress an entire country.

In this situation, how should these three major countries deal with the forces behind this mech?

After a long while, Liu Yunqi finally let out a long breath. "Let's wait until this mech can withstand this round of attacks before we talk about it."

"Can it withstand it? The Starshine Federation still launched this missile even knowing that you have electromagnetic pulse weapons, which shows that the detonation method of these warheads does not rely entirely on electronic components."

Voices from Gu Jinlai resounded in Xie Yusheng's mind.

"Not relying on electronic components also means that their accuracy is not as high as we imagine."

As Xie Yusheng spoke, the radar's perception was enhanced to the extreme, and any object entering within three or four hundred miles would be detected immediately.

The plasma cannons located on the shoulders of the Cheng Ying mechs were already flashing.

"They're here."

Xie Yusheng took a deep breath, his eyes wide open.

Nuclear missiles!

He is now facing the world's most advanced nuclear missile!

The sheer number and yield of this nuclear missile alone would be enough to wipe a small country off the Blue Star.

And right now...

He will face this ultimate weapon produced by the human race of Blue Star!

How fast is a missile that travels at nearly 30 times the speed of sound?

Almost the instant Xie Yusheng detected the missiles, they had already traveled dozens of miles.

For an ordinary person, the process of locking on and firing would inevitably involve a delay, leading to a failed interception. But Xie Yusheng...

In his shared spiritual state, in the blink of an eye, the plasma cannon on his shoulder emitted a burst of intense light.

It fires ten shells directly at a rate of two shells per second with relatively low power.

A second before he fired these shells, the operators behind the Torch missiles seemed to have calculated the range of the plasma cannon and activated the missiles in advance. The sixteen warheads spun rapidly and roared out in sixteen directions, almost covering the entire area within a hundred miles of Xie Yusheng.

Saturation bombing.

"Sizzle!"

Lightning flashed through the air!

Ten plasma shells directly blasted five warheads apart in mid-air.

At the same time, the Cheng Ying mech accelerated to its maximum speed and rushed towards the area where nuclear warheads were least concentrated.

The plasma shield on the mech's surface reached its maximum power; if someone were to observe it up close, they could even see a shimmering azure light emanating from the mech's surface.

"Buzz!"

The next moment, an intense light, so bright it illuminated everything, completely filled the heavens and earth.

All the brilliance before his eyes seemed to be stripped away by the dazzling light that kept flashing around him.

One, two, three, four...

The surrounding area, spanning hundreds of miles, seemed to be illuminated by ten blazing suns. No words could describe the brilliance of the energy emanating from these suns.

Come on!

Amidst this breathtaking splendor and brilliance, Xie Yusheng could no longer suppress the shock and fear in his heart, and suddenly roared to the sky!

"Open it for me!"

In the instant that flames, intense light, compressed air, and raging fire swept in, he unleashed his full power with the ship-slaying sword, carrying astonishing blade energy, and fiercely slashed forward!

One cut!

It shook the heavens and earth, and stirred up the winds and clouds!

The raging flames and hurricanes that rolled in from all directions were shattered by this one strike!

The sky, composed entirely of flames and intense light, was cleaved open with a chasm-like trench. Through the flames and intense light, he could even see the azure wall of clouds behind it!
