Armor-piercing bullets don't believe in carbon-based monsters

Chapter 86: Ancestors’ Blessing

The shock wave killing radius of a 600-ton tactical nuclear bomb is about 1 meters, the light radiation radius is less than 1.5 kilometer, the early nuclear contamination killing radius is 2 kilometers, and the comprehensive killing radius on the human body is only kilometers at most.

For field troops, such killing effect is not as real as a round of bombing by artillery groups. Even during the Cold War, the Soviet army required its field troops to have the ability to charge forward under nuclear bombing.

Because this thing is really useless and can only exert the greatest destructive effect in attacks on cities.
-
However, there is a but for everything.

The delivery accuracy of the nuclear bomb detonated by Lei Jie was extremely high.

Although it was not an air explosion, the explosion point was right in the middle of the Mechanicus' fleet.

In an instant, the scorching heat burned almost all the wooden ships on the river, and also turned into ashes the 400 soldiers of the Templar Guards Brigade who were ready to go.

The armor became a burden to them. The high temperature melted the metal, which then turned into molten iron that tightly wrapped their muscles and bones.

After an extremely brief moment of splendor, the vaporized molten iron was carried away by the shock wave and scattered into the air within an area of nearly 5 square kilometers.

This is a true death without any trace left, but it is not the most painful and tragic way to die.

600 meters away from the center of the explosion, the shock wave was no longer strong enough to cause instant death.

The crusaders from Hanshui City who had already set out were thrown to the ground, and when they struggled to get up, they were horrified to find that their bodies were melting.

The last remaining image in their retina allowed them to witness their tragic death. Immediately afterwards, their souls disappeared from this world accompanied by strong light radiation.

Farther away, when the light radiation was greatly weakened by the turbid air and blocked by a large number of obstacles, the powerful power it carried still ignited the clothes of most of the crusaders, and their red and swollen skin peeled off layer by layer.

They had no chance of survival.
-
Perhaps in Chen Jianlai's time, they could rely on modern medicine to barely survive, but here, their survival time is calculated in minutes.

When the distance extends to 1 km, the power of light radiation is reduced to the limit.

The multiple intense rays produced by the explosion have penetrated the enemy's body and broken down the DNA in the surface skin.

It won't be long before they die slowly in agony.

But at this moment, they have not yet realized their own ending.

The enemy in the direction of Yuqingzhou has been completely wiped out.

In fact, after the dazzling sun rose, the miraculous scene had already destroyed the will of all enemies.

The Mechanicus troops in the direction of Xianning were also fleeing for their lives. When the horrific heat wave swept over, when the strong wind ignited the dry forest and swallowed them with overwhelming power, all faith had become meaningless.

escape.

The only option is to escape.

In their eyes, this was no longer a battle between people, but a punishment from God endured by sinners.

But why would God's punishment fall upon his own brothers?
Those heretics
Are they the true representatives of God?

A terrible thought spread among their ranks like a plague.

Will the next divine punishment come upon us?
There is no answer to this question, and no answer is needed anymore.

Just run away!

The enemies from Xianning collapsed at a speed that was expected. They had no time to wait for friendly forces, let alone pack up their heavy equipment. Instead, they ran madly towards Xianning as if they had abandoned everything.
In Yellowstone City, many people also witnessed this devastating scene.

They did obey Chen Jian's command, crawling low to the ground and burying their heads in their chests.

But when they found that the sky suddenly brightened in a strange way, they finally couldn't help but raise their heads.

At that time, a huge mushroom cloud flashing bright yellow light was rising in the distance, and the place where it rose was exactly where the enemy was!
The hurricane swept in and people staggered and fell to the ground.

Huang Yu, who was following closely beside Chen Jian, was looking into the distance with an infatuated look on his face. At this moment, he suddenly seemed to have an epiphany and understood what Chen Jian had said to him.

The sun is about to rise.

That's right.

The sun has risen, but it is the "ancestor's" sun!

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't utter a word.

After the impact of the scorching sun finally dissipated, he finally uttered a few words from his throat, which had been tense to the point of hoarseness:

"This is... The Sun. Is this really a miracle?" Chen Jian shook his head and replied:

"Your ancestors told you to trust them, not religion."

"Of course, don't believe in God either."

“It’s the sun, yes, but it’s the sun of our ancestors.”

"The Sun of the Ancestors"

Huang Yu repeated these words silently. In his mind that had long been worn out and alienated by the end of the world, he had no idea how such a thing came into being.

The enemy had obviously been completely wiped out, and the whole process took only a few seconds.

"Our ancestors possessed such amazing power."

Huang Yu knelt on the ground with the ritual of offering sacrifice to his ancestors, looked devoutly at the gradually dissipating mushroom cloud, and then said:
“You must be saints like them.”

"The one who created the 'sun' was never a saint."

Chen Jian let out a long sigh, and then said:
"There are some truly amazing people among them, leading the way forward."

"But more of them are ordinary people like you and me."

"When you first saw the sun shining over this land, tens of thousands of people had already dedicated most of their lives to it."

"In a sense, their lives are even more miserable than yours."

"Not enough water, not enough food, desert, desolation, loneliness"

"Many people even just returned from the battlefield, with the blood of the enemies still wet on their bodies."

“They are doing something that is almost impossible.”

"Grow an apple tree in the desert, or ride a bicycle to the moon."

“But in the end, they did it.”

"Four hundred years later, the legacy they left behind is still blessing us."

"The sun rises on them, not on us."
