Episode 152 [ Nationwide (3) ]
The world was shocked by China’s use of nuclear weapons.
Humanity’s last and strongest weapon.
After the emergence of monsters, nuclear weapons were a weapon that all powerful countries wanted to use but held back.
Although it was an extremely powerful weapon, it was thought that the effect would not be great and the damage would be more severe.
And that thought was not wrong.
Contrary to the Chinese government’s expectations, the monsters were not affected by radiation.
If you exclude radioactivity, nuclear weapons are just bombs with extremely powerful firepower.
Although it was successful in stopping the monsters’ advance, it was not as helpful as expected in reducing the number of monsters.
In the end, the Chinese army had to continue fighting the monsters after setting up a defensive line.
Moreover, while monsters were unaffected by radiation, people were not.
Numerous soldiers were contaminated with radiation, and the radioactive fallout that rose up with the mushroom cloud began to move eastward on the air currents.
North Korea, South Korea, Japan and even Russia.
Each country sheltered its citizens indoors and sent profanity-laced protests to the Chinese government.
The Chinese government in Beijing ignored all of the protests from those countries.
Because they knew the radioactive fallout would head east.
*
The siren continued to sound.
[Fellow citizens! This is the Central Civil Defense Warning Control Center of the National Emergency Management Agency. Issue a real radiation alert. At this time, we are issuing an actual radiation warning throughout our country. Dear citizens….]
Seoul and all cities in Korea seemed empty.
There were no people on the road and no cars were moving except for a few emergency vehicles.
It still took time for the radioactive fallout to arrive, and there were rumors that it might be weaker than expected, but people didn’t want to take the risk.
The situation was no different in North Korea and Japan.
People were hiding inside their houses and looking up at the sky.
It was the same for the awakened ones.
“Is everyone going to be okay?”
Omar, who was sitting on the sofa, looked outside with a worried expression.
No fallout was visible. In the distance, only a small patch of cloud was moving west.
“We’ll be okay? “You said that awakened people are not contaminated by radiation.”
“That’s not what Omar meant.”
Jin Xiawei paid attention to Liu Yiling’s answer.
“Oh, I see. sorry.”
Liu Yiling apologized to Omar.
The people in the room looked towards the desk. The desk Kyung-hoon used was empty.
Not only Omar and Jin Xiawei, but also Liu Yiling and the female awakeners were all gathered in Gyeonghun’s office.
There was a separate break room, but as time passed, everyone gathered in Kyung-hoon’s office.
“Are you still away?”
“It came for a moment in the middle and disappeared again when it went sideways?”
Jin Xiawei answered another female awakened woman’s question.
“Do you really have the ability to move through space?”
“I don’t know either.”
Jin Xiawei shrugged his shoulders in response to the question. To be honest, she had that suspicion too, but had no intention of telling anyone else.
“Where are you going?”
“Well, you’re probably going around solving various problems. “They might be trying to prevent radioactive fallout.”
Everyone laughed at Jin Xiawei’s joke. Omar, who had been worried, seemed to feel a little relieved.
“Now that things have come to this, is it okay to hold a start-up ceremony?”
“I think I’ll have to postpone it…”
“It’s a shame. “I prepared hard.”
“Well, I just need to prepare again…”
As the atmosphere changed, people started talking about other topics.
And although people didn’t know it, the monitor on the desk had not yet turned off.
The monitor screen showed weather conditions on the Korean Peninsula and surrounding areas taken from weather satellites.
The air current originating in Mongolia was flowing east. It was an air current filled with radioactive fallout.
And from the east coast, a huge cloud was approaching the Korean Peninsula.
It was a cloud moving against the air current.
*
East coast at the same time.
Rumbling.
Black clouds were spreading, filling the horizon.
Lightning flashed through the clouds and thunder roared.
The wind direction confirmed by the weather station was clearly moving from west to east, but the direction from which the clouds were now moving was in the opposite direction.
Moreover, the movement of the clouds was like a living creature. It looked like a pack of animals rushing after their prey.
And in front of the rushing clouds, there was a helicopter that looked like it was being chased by the clouds.
It was the latest helicopter with a moving EV symbol on the side.
The helicopter, which was high in the clouds, was flying with its fuselage side door open, absurdly.
The pilot flying the helicopter kept looking back with a white face.
Although he was a former US military test pilot and prided himself on being the world’s best helicopter pilot, he had never experienced anything like this and had no intention of doing so.
After being recruited by EV for a huge amount of money, I have never regretted working at EV. But now I only regret it.
To anyone who saw it, dragging huge monsters flying through the sky with a helicopter was crazy.
“I’m not lying when I say you’re truly the best pilot in the world!”
Team leader Kei gave me a thumbs up from behind, but I didn’t have time to reply to the compliment.
“coming! This time it’s up!”
Hearing the co-pilot’s words, I quickly pushed the control stick. The helicopter plummeted downward.
Wow!
At the same time, the helicopter roared and the monster’s roar passed by.
The monster passed over the helicopter and turned around in front.
Sparks flew out from the monster’s body as it flapped its wings.
At the same time, Kay shouted.
“Vasily! “Defense shield!”
“Yes!”
Vasily, who was tied to the chair, grabbed the chair and displayed his special ability.
The shield Vasily created covered the helicopter.
Grumpy!
A bright light and the electric current that bounced from the monster’s body struck the helicopter. Lightning
. Fortunately, the current, which was no different from the previous one, could not penetrate the shield and was scattered in the air.
Kay held out the sniper rifle out the open door.
Bang
!
A gunshot was heard , and
a monster’s scream was heard. A huge monster was bleeding and fell into the clouds. -It was
the 8th monster.
Eve told him the number of monsters that had been injured.
Vasily was just as distracted as the helicopter pilot.
He heard that China had used nuclear weapons, and suddenly he, who had been waiting in Siberia, was brought to Vladivostok. I was called.
I rushed over and flew over the sea in a helicopter with Kay. After that, I saw incredible scenes. I saw a
man swinging a sword and splitting the clouds, and I also saw monsters hiding in the clouds attacking in droves. What was
even more absurd was that as the monsters chased after him, a huge cloud moved along with them.
The monsters chased the helicopter with the cloud, and Kay wounded the monsters with a sniper rifle to make them not stop following. “Just go
a little further . ! We’ve prepared an aerial refueling tanker, so you don’t have to worry about fuel!”
The pilots looked tired at Kay’s words.
The coastline began to appear in the distance to the west.
*
“Oh, when did it get so dark? It’s not sunset time yet.”
At Jin Xiawei’s words, everyone looked out the window.
The sky was full of black clouds.
The wall-mounted TV, which had been continuously broadcasting special news, began to play different content than before.
[This is news that just came in. The direction of the air current has changed. It is said that there is. It is said that the direction of the wind has changed from the west wind to the south wind.]
People who were looking out the window looked at the TV again.
[If the direction of the air current remains like this, the radioactive fallout will not come to the Korean Peninsula and Manchuria, but will likely head to southern China. .]
The broadcasting reporter also had a puzzled expression. It seemed like he didn’t understand.
“So you’re okay?”
Omar asked again,
“Yes, everything will be okay.”
Liu Yiling nodded at Omar’s words.
Jin Xiaowei’s expression of regret passed by Liu Yiling’s words. Although she
was thankful that the wind direction had changed and this country became safe, she thought of the Chinese people who would suffer instead. .
But it was just a thought.
Neither she nor the other women had any good memories of China. They all thought of this as their second home. The broadcast continued. [The movement
of
clouds currently covering the sky over the Korean Peninsula] The Korea Meteorological Administration is unable to provide a proper answer. Since the cataclysm, the criticism against the Korea Meteorological Administration, which has continued to be wrong in its forecasts, is likely to increase.]
Jin Xiawei looked at the empty desk.
On the monitor screen, clouds covering Manchuria and the Korean Peninsula were blown by the wind. *
– According to the analysis so far, the flying monsters that dominate the sky do not come down to the ground, but continue their lives using clouds as their nests. –
They
move the clouds to find food. No, they use air currents in addition to lightning. It seems to have the ability to move.
-If we lure the flying monsters that are staying on the east coast, we may be able to prevent the radioactive fallout.
Eve was right.
The cloud that Kyung-hoon dragged changed the direction of the air current. The air current was directed from the West Sea. turned on.
The air current turned southwest instead of east, showering a huge amount of radioactive fallout along the Chinese coast.
***
Bang!
The old fist hit the desk.
“Why on earth did this happen? Who knows? “Is there anyone there?”
An old man wearing a People’s uniform glared at the people in the room.
Everyone lowered their heads with gloomy faces.
Neither he, the president, nor anyone else in the room expected that the People’s Republic of China would be fooled like this.
“Does this make sense? ? There was a coup in North Korea, and we sent troops, but monsters came rushing down, and we sent in to stop the monsters, but they kept getting pushed back, and with a feeling of vomiting blood, we used nuclear weapons, and the People’s Liberation Army betrayed us?”
We looked at each other at the president’s words:
“And the fallout that was sent west is coming back. If you weren’t planning to destroy China, there’s no way things would have progressed like this!”
To be honest, most things were their own decisions, but they never imagined that the result would be like this.
The Chairman, who had been venting his anger for a while, glared at the Northern Theater commander.
“Is the 80th Army Group still refusing orders?”
“Yes. I am not receiving any communication at all.”
“You traitorous bastards…”
A curse came out of the chairman’s mouth. He asked the commander again,
“Can’t the Northern Lights move?”
“We are still fighting against monsters. We cannot withdraw our troops, even to defend Beijing.”
The commander wiped his sweat and barely answered. Thinking about the mistakes he had made so far, he felt like he would have nothing to say even if his head was cut off right away. Fortunately, there was no reprimand. The chairman
turned his attention to someone else.
“Then, in the end, we will have to use other troops. Eastern theater.” “How far have the troops advanced?”
“I… well… there is no answer yet.”
The president’s face distorted.
“Could it be… somewhere else?”
It was then.
Bang!
The conference room door burst open and an officer rushed in.
“Each province declared independence at the same time!”
*
[We condemn the party that used nuclear weapons on its own territory and put all its people in danger. From today, the Eastern District has decided not to follow the Party’s orders.]
Each district declared independence almost simultaneously. All warlords rose up.
China was divided into six parts.
The Warring States Period is back.
