Chapter 1106: Why Didn't I Watch That Anime!
The mixed sound of various modern firearms like the M249 light machine gun, M2 heavy machine gun, and M4 assault rifle, as well as the explosion sound of various small rockets and grenades.
It echoed throughout Chiyoda Ward and Chuo Ward for half a day.
Until deep into the night, past one o'clock this morning.
The Ground Self-Defense Force barely managed to end this strange combat.
Fortunately, the process was smooth. Whether it was the terrifying-looking monsters or the ancient army fully clad in armor, they were no match for the offensive of modern arms.
Only the arrows shot by the opposing archers posed a high threat.
Almost all of the casualties among the nearly one thousand troops on this side were caused by them.
As for the infantry, cavalry, and even dragon knights, they were all sitting ducks under machine gun strafe.
Those long shields and armor that looked like they were made of fine steel were as fragile as thin paper, completely unable to block bullet attacks. Each time, both the person and the shield were pierced and killed together.
However, although the combat was over.
The number of civilian deaths in this incident was as high as over sixty thousand.
But the other side also had nearly sixty thousand killed in battle and over five thousand soldiers captured!
Japan and the rest of the world had already been thrown into a storm because of this.
This was the capital center of a developed nation.
Everyone was stunned; everything happened too suddenly.
Their Parliament was even more in chaos.
Clearly, it would take some time to make an official statement to the outside world.
At the same time.
The World Government, upon receiving the latest news, was also greatly surprised.
From Shiki, who was guarding the Halkeginia Gate on the other side, to Bullet, who was stationed in the Titan World, and then to Kong, Zephyr, Raimon, Sengoku on the Sea Star Mainland, and even the higher-ups like Garp, the Five Elders, and the Ruler Im, all attached great importance to this.
Because it seemed they had encountered another power that could also independently invade other worlds!
And unlike the previous devil civilization, the Netherworld.
This time, it was clearly a power primarily composed of humans!
Although it seemed a bit weak.
But who knows if it was just cannon fodder sent in to scout?
The World Government could actually do the same. Every time they open a star gate, they could directly dispatch a team of auxiliary legion troops to go in and cause some destruction, using their lives to get an approximate strength of the opponent.
However, in the eyes of Im, the Five Elders, Kong, Zephyr, Sengoku, and others, this was not worth the loss and could even be said to be a very foolish approach.
In comparison, it was safer and smarter to have people secretly investigate first.
But regardless, the other side was also a power capable of invading other worlds.
It's possible they had already conquered many worlds, so their war potential could not be ignored.
In the command department's meeting room.
Raimon looked at the several military high command members present.
"I'm thinking now if we should let Shiki's troops attack into the Nuclear World in advance?"
Zephyr asked doubtfully, "Why?"
"Because the invasion by this otherworld power is very likely to put Japan's military bases into combat readiness."
"By then, weapons will definitely be distributed to the soldiers on a large scale, and other warships, tanks, armored vehicles, and airplanes will be on standby at any time. This will clearly increase the difficulty of the offensive."
"Rather than that, it's better to attack in now and occupy Yokosuka Port first!"
Raimon spoke out his idea all at once.
"But that way, we will become the target of everyone."
Sengoku shook his head and denied after listening, "I think we should wait and see. At least figure out the specific situation of the rival. Now is not the time for a preemptive strike."
"Since the other side made the first move, we don't need to rush. Let's see how they fight among themselves. Anyway, the Nuclear World is right opposite The Gate, and it can be opened anytime."
Minister Kong nodded in agreement, his gaze also becoming solemn.
"This Old Man thinks this is safer. There are countless experts in the multiverse, and we should indeed handle them carefully, not to mention encountering a mysterious force that can also invade other worlds now."
Meanwhile, over at Noah's Ark.
Im stood on the Ginza Street constructed by the holographic virtual image, thoughtfully observing the goblins, pig-head people, heavy cavalry, and dragon knights flying overhead, who were currently massacring Japanese citizens.
He always felt this scene was a bit familiar...
"A fantasy world army invading a modern city, this seems like the plot of a certain movie from the Cold Country."
Im first thought of this because he had watched the movie completely back then.
But after deeply searching his memory and clearly comparing it to the scene before him, he found there were big differences.
Although when a fantasy work turns into a real world, there will definitely be places that are seemingly similar but actually different.
But looking at the previous few stargate worlds, except for the 2D art style becoming 3D, the overall situation was actually about the same.
Only this Imperial Arms World, affected by the so-called Holy Emperor, had significant changes from the original manga.
"It shouldn't be 'Dragon War'. The appearance of these goblins, trolls, and flying dragons clearly leans more towards the fantasy style of the Zero Magic World..."
Im fell into deep thought, seriously searching his memory from before he transmigrated.
"Right, I did hear of an anime with similar content once. It seemed to be called something like Self-Defense Force..."
Im found the memory fragments about this anime at this moment.
But in his memory, there were only very few video clips and information from chatting with people online.
He could basically confirm that the matter happening in the Nuclear World should be the content of this 'Fantasy Self-Defense Force'.
But Im also confirmed that he had not watched it.
According to his memory, he had heard people say at the time that it was a recruitment advertisement anime purely for Japan's self-promotion.
Such as a Japanese city being invaded by an otherworld army, and then the Self-Defense Force was dispatched to go in, massacring the otherworld army while stating they wanted peaceful coexistence and equal cooperation.
The most interesting thing was that great countries like the Lighthouse Country and Rakshasa Country were actually refused by Japan from intervening in the Otherworld Special Zone matter.
At most, they were allowed to send a few people over to observe the base well they were constructing in the otherworld...
He felt it was particularly ridiculous at the time, but he did watch a few videos and appreciated the process of a modern army crushing an otherworld army, but he fundamentally did not have the idea to seriously go look for the anime and watch it.
Hmm... Im regrets it a bit now.
He only knows now that the otherworld in this anime has mages, the elf race, and also something called Death God and Half-God.
Right, it seems there was also a Fire Dragon whose arm was blown off by a rocket launcher...
In short, Im cannot provide detailed information to the World Government this time.
However, since there is a god, it must be given importance.
"This time, let them gather intelligence themselves. I can't always rely on Im cheating."
Im shook his head and sighed, also feeling that the matter had become very interesting.
"The plot of 'Fantasy Self-Defense Force' actually happened in the Zero no Tsukaima World, which is after Hiraga Saito transmigrated..."
At this moment, he suddenly thought of the ancient army that invaded the Zero Magic World a thousand years ago but was resolved by Brimir. Couldn't it have come from the otherworld of this 'Fantasy Self-Defense Force'?
"If that's the case, then the other side had already embarked on the paths to conquer myriad worlds starting from a thousand years ago..."
Im felt increasingly that the World Government had encountered a true opponent this time.
Both sides will most likely compete using the Nuclear World as the battlefield next.
"Eh, that's not right!"
Im suddenly froze, saying to himself:
"If they are very strong, how could they be invaded by Japan and even develop some base on the other side?"
This question left him a bit confused.
So annoying.
Why didn't I watch that anime back then!
Truly, a young man doesn't know the hardship of diligent study, only in old age does one realize they watched too few anime...
