"Did it blow up?" At the same time that Chen Xin asked this question, the current federal leader in the Presidential Refuge in the Federation on the other side of the ocean was also asking the same question.
"It's just that he was asking about another meteorite, the one with a diameter of four kilometers that was hitting North America and was supposed to be intercepted by the Lucians.
In order to intercept this meteorite, the Federation launched nuclear bombs again, a total of five strategic nuclear bombs with a 10-million-ton equivalent.
The explosion of five high-yield nuclear bombs also caused all detectors and observation equipment to lie down. If you want to know the results, you can only know it after the radiation and the fire caused by the explosion dissipate.
"Sorry, Mr. President, we are currently unable to confirm the situation at the scene. All equipment is malfunctioning." An officer reported to federal leaders that he had never seen such a situation where fifty nuclear bombs exploded at the same time.
But after the officer finished speaking, he urged other staff members to find a way to restore the observation equipment.
Soon, a staff member seemed to have called the observation equipment elsewhere, and the picture was redisplayed on the large screen of the shelter. A huge fireball in the sky was emitting light and heat, and was constantly expanding. .
Seeing this scene, everyone was a little excited. It was obvious that the nuclear bomb had such an effect only when it hit.
Just looking at the huge fireball in the sky, someone asked with some confusion: "Does five nuclear bombs only have this effect?"
No wonder there are such doubts, because although the fireball in the sky is huge, it is still larger than the mushroom cloud that can be produced by a nuclear bomb explosion under normal circumstances. Although it is an air explosion without a mushroom cloud, there is something wrong with this size. .
Just when everyone was confused, a large number of bolides rushed out of the fireball and smashed towards the ground.
"This is it!" Everyone suddenly became nervous and hurriedly operated the equipment at hand, trying to figure out what was going on.
However, while everyone was busy, more and larger bolides also rushed out of the fireball, falling towards the ground like rain, and their landing point was North America.
"Hell! Who can tell me what the hell is going on!" The federal leader used several words starting with f to express his emotions, trying to figure out what was going on.
"It's a pity that things don't work just by swearing. The federal leader is not the Hulk. The angrier he is, the more powerful he is.
¡°Although he cursed a series of curse words and threw all the demeanor and dignity of a country¡¯s leader into the Atlantic Ocean, the federal leaders did not understand what the situation was before them.
Just when he couldn't help but want to smash things, a staff member finally figured out what was going on.
"Mr. President, it's clear! Since the nuclear bombs we launched were not detonated at the same time, only the first two nuclear bombs that hit were actually detonated successfully. The other nuclear bombs were directly destroyed due to the impact of the shock waves generated by the explosion of these two nuclear bombs. It fell and did not detonate." The staff hurriedly reported to federal leaders.
This situation was expected in advance. After all, five nuclear bombs were detonated at the same time. This kind of thing has never been done in human history. The reason why the federal people launched so many nuclear bombs was just to ensure the hit rate, and they did not place any hope on it. All nuclear bombs explode.
So this situation is also within the acceptance range of the federal people.
"Then what happened to those bolides? Are they meteorite fragments?" An aide next to the federal leader asked quickly. This is also the topic of greatest concern to everyone.
"It's a meteorite fragment! The nuclear bomb shattered the meteorite, but not completely! NASA's observation results show that it broke into a large number of fragments and is heading towards the west coast, including a large fragment about one kilometer in diameter!" The staff hurriedly told them the latest news they had obtained.
"What?!" Everyone in the shelter couldn't help but be shocked.
When they first heard that they were meteorite fragments, everyone was not too nervous, because the size of those bolides was not particularly exaggerated. Even if they hit the ground, they would only make craters in the city, making post-disaster reconstruction a bit more troublesome.
But if a meteorite with a diameter of one kilometer hits it, although it is not as destructive as a meteorite with a diameter of four kilometers, it can still destroy the entire federation!
You must know that a 30-kilometer-diameter crater discovered by scientists in Greenland was created by a one-kilometer-diameter meteorite 12,000 years ago! According to scientists' calculations, the seven-kilometer-thick earth's crust at that time was penetrated!
And the crater is just the final mark produced by the meteorite impactThe direct destruction and subsequent series of secondary disasters are the most terrifying.
"Mr. President, what should we do? Please give the order!" The previous officer looked at the federal leader. At this time, as the democratically elected president, it was time for him to stand up and make a decision.
Following the officer¡¯s words, everyone in the shelter turned their eyes to the federal leader, waiting for him to make up his mind.
However, his body swayed twice and he almost fell.
The federal leader who was holding on to the table stabilized his body, looked at the people in the shelter at this time, and asked with some difficulty: "Can we still launch nuclear bombs for interception?"
"Sorry, Mr. President, it's too late." A staff member hurriedly replied.
This answer made the federal leader feel darkness in front of him. He had to raise his other hand to hold his forehead, took a deep breath and said: "Use all channels to announce this news to the outside world! Let everyone People are evacuating, and at the same time, let NASA calculate the impact point of the meteorite and evacuate as much as possible"
At this point, the federal leader took a breath and regained some composure before continuing: "In addition, I declare that from now on, the federation will enter a special state, implement a wartime system, and implement martial law across the country. State governments, National Guards, and police must all Fulfill your responsibilities and maintain social order until we get through this disaster."
When the federal leader said these words, everyone in the entire shelter was listening quietly. The atmosphere was oppressive and silent, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable. A female staff member bit her lip, nervous. He held the hem of his clothes.
Finally, after the federal president finished speaking his order, he looked at the still silent crowd and sighed: "Although as the federal president, I shouldn't say such words at this time, I still want to say, may God bless the United States. "
After saying that, the federal leader found a chair and sat down. Looking at the busy people, he asked the staff beside him: "How is the interception operation of the Lucians? At the expense of the Federation, they saved the Blue Mountains." Is it a star yet?¡± (Remember this site¡¯s website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
