The bombing began, and at the same time, all the lights on the entire street went out!
Each person had a bomb strapped to them equivalent to 500 kilograms of TNT. The shockwave and flames from the midair explosions made the Mackinaw shudder, and the three people inside could only see a string of flames through the visual sensors!
Even Lier hadn't expected a suicide attack like this-
Glass and metal fragments flew in every direction through the flames. In the darkness, a mercenary shouted and pulled the control lever. "Activate the pulse gun!"
Bang!
The lights across most of Heywood went out in an instant!
As the explosions went off, all the High-Frequency Hacking Equipment the Brain Maggot Gang had planted in hidden places by various means activated in secret. They instantly drained the power from the entire area, then routed it through wired and wireless connections to the Electromagnetic Pulse Guns hidden in buildings, along the streets, and even underground.
Rather than a gun, this device was actually an assembly of several microwave waveguides, coils, and antennas. Hidden around them at multiple angles, they all locked onto the oversized armored vehicle-
This was an oversized urban weapon, an electronic-device killer capable of producing an extremely powerful, directional electromagnetic pulse over medium to long distances.
Rather than call it a "gun," it was really a system, a complete Weapon Array. "Gun" was just a figure of speech!
The capacitors finished charging. With a sharp crack, the coils of the directional pulse emitters suddenly glowed red, blue-white arcs crackled through the air, and the enormous cooling arrays kicked into full gear!
As the electromagnetic waves ionized huge volumes of air, their paths became faintly visible. Even the flames from the explosions began to distort!
