Chapter 1128: Pure Titans Falling from the Sky!

That afternoon, many South Koreans would later refer to this day as a 'nightmare'.

First, electronic devices such as mobile phones, computers, and televisions suffered internal damage, with some transformers even exploding.

Then, utility poles on the streets began to crackle and emit dangerous sparks.

Centered around Yongsan District, the power, communication, and television systems in large parts of the capital city area on both sides of the Han River were severely damaged in a very short time.

Many intersections also experienced traffic accidents of varying sizes due to traffic light failures.

This brought further negative social impact to the entire city of Seoul.

All the South Koreans living there felt that their familiar surroundings had suddenly become chaotic and strange for some unknown reason.

Moreover, as the sun continued to set in the west, the sky also grew darker and darker.

This also brought an indescribable psychological pressure upon the people.

But when huge roars that even shook the glass appeared in the sky, panic was completely ignited among the crowds.

They were fighter aircraft that some people were familiar with, but most were not.

They formed neat tactical formations and swept over every city at high speed.

Although they did not bombard the urban areas below, they still caused tension and panic among the citizens.

Some people comforted themselves or others, saying they might be the country's own air force fighter aircraft.

However, residents living near certain military bases soon couldn't even manage this self-comfort.

Especially the anti-aircraft gun bases, Cheonma missile bases, and short-range artillery bases that formed Seoul's air defense firepower network.

They were precisely struck by air-to-ground missiles from F4 fighter jets and F15 fighter jets in the first instance.

As for the air defense weapons below, under the effect of the electromagnetic pulse, whether it was electrical equipment, electronic systems, or more precise electronic components, they had all been damaged.

In this situation, let alone anti-air missiles, even anti-aircraft guns were unusable.

Because modern anti-aircraft guns had long since achieved various automated functions like searching, identifying, aiming, tracking, and determining targets using fire control systems.

But precisely because of this, they could basically do nothing now.

They could only be continuously destroyed by the missiles falling down one by one.

It is clear that calling the 'Electromagnetic Pulse Bomb' the 'Modern Information War Nuclear Bomb' is not without principle.

In Im's previous life, this 'Electromagnetic Pulse Bomb' did not have mature technology until 2022.

Therefore, the scientists of that great country found another way and developed a 'Graphite Bomb'.

Because this 'Graphite Bomb' was very similar to the 'Electromagnetic Pulse Bomb'.

American experts even thought they had developed an 'Electromagnetic Pulse Weapon'.

But in fact, this was not the case.

At that time, the purest electromagnetic pulse still had to be generated through primitive 'Nuclear Explosion'.

However, the range of the 'Electromagnetic Pulse' generated by this 'Nuclear Explosion' was very limited.

According to the results of the 'High-Altitude Nuclear Test' conducted on Johnston Island in 1962.

A nuclear bomb with a yield of 1.4 million tons of TNT was thrown into space about 400 kilometers high and detonated.

Yet it could only cause power grid tripping, failure of all electrical appliances, and burning of high-voltage lightning arresters in a city 1,400 meters away.

However, this 'Nuclear Explosion' formed a 'High-Energy Electron Stream' in space.

Over the next few months, it successively damaged the electronic components and solar panels of American satellites one by one.

In short, the efficiency of creating an 'Electromagnetic Pulse' with a 'Nuclear Explosion' was very low.

In contrast, although the 'Five-Path Revolving Furnace Technology' invented by Doctor Stylish also used explosion as a method.

Its core energy was neither nuclear energy nor explosives, but ultra-high temperature plasma.

Its power and scale were comparable to Enel's 'Raigo' in the 'canon', and the electromagnetic pulse generated was naturally even stronger.

Just like now, a single 'Five-Path Revolving Thunder God Cannon' bombardment on the ground is enough to affect most of the Seoul area.

If released at high altitude, the entire Cold Country, and even the northern Morning Country, would be swept by the electromagnetic pulse.

Similarly, detonating it in outer space could destroy all satellites.

It can be said that the World Government, which has mastered the 'Five-Path Revolving Furnace Technology', already possesses the ability to instantly block most electronic technology in the modern world.

Directly sending the globe back to a state worse than the 'First World War' period.

That is, to the extent that even electric lights, telegrams, and wired telephones cannot be used.

The reason for saying 'most' is because there are still network cables that transmit signals using optical fiber, which can completely guard against the impact of electromagnetic pulse.

But the problem is that computers don't work.

If your computer is broken, the network cable being normal is useless, not to mention the power is out.

At this moment, military bases throughout Seoul were under attack by fighter aircraft.

Among them, important targets like Osan Air Base, which houses the Hanguk Air Force Operations Command and the ROK-US Combined Forces Command, welcomed a transport ship under Vice Admiral Karas.

That's right, a transport ship, not a bomber ship.

Because the Lighthouse Country Pacific Fleet 51st Fighter Wing Air Force and the Lighthouse Country Seventh Air Force are stationed here.

Therefore, there are hundreds of military aircraft of various models at the base.

These are all good things.

Although Shiki disregards human life, he is also aware of the value of these airplanes.

That's why he specifically reminded his troops earlier to try their best to preserve the pilots and technicians.

Of course, only try their best.

It is difficult to distinguish these in combat, and casualties are unavoidable.

"Faster, faster, faster!"

"Wake up, it's our turn to appear, lads!"

"Let the people of this 'Nuclear World' witness the strength of the Eldians!"

Inside the cabin of the transport ship, a man with a buzz cut, standing a full 1.91 meters tall, was loudly motivating the soldiers who were continuously leaping out from both sides, and patting each soldier's shoulder with his palm.

Mitabi.

Full name Mitabi Yarunah.

Former squad leader of the Elite Squad of the Paradis Island Garrison Regiment.

Currently a major in the Golden Lion Third Air Group, and also the commander of this airborne unit.

They had previously carried out the mission of occupying the capital city of the Elf Kingdom in the Familiar of Zero World.

At this moment, from the rear cabin of the transport ship floating in the air, figures jumped down like dumplings.

As their parachutes opened, they turned into white dandelions.

This scene made the eyelids of the US Forces Japan personnel stationed at Osan Air Base twitch.

Vice Admiral Georgeou, the commander, had an even darker expression.

"General, let's retreat, there's still a little time!"

Adjutant Sam, a colonel behind him, quickly advised.

"The airplanes can't take off now, anti-air missiles can't be launched, and anti-aircraft guns are useless. We can't stop them!"

Vice Admiral Georgeou suddenly turned his head and glared angrily at the other party.

"Anti-aircraft guns can be operated manually by soldiers, and we still have guns in our hands!"

That's right, modern anti-aircraft guns do have a manual mode reserved.

However, without the assistance of a fire control system, hitting fighter aircraft, missiles, or anything else depends entirely on luck.

But the transport ship in the sky has been hovering there, so there's no need to worry about not hitting it.

Therefore, the forty-eight anti-aircraft guns at Osan Air Base, under the control of the soldiers from the Lighthouse Country Army's 35th Air Defense Artillery Brigade, began launching a fierce attack towards the 'snowflakes' in the sky.

Of course, most of the firepower was concentrated on the transport ship floating in the sky.

[Bang bang bang bang...]

Rapid cannon fire continuously erupted from the twin cannon barrels.

Don't look at these Lighthouse Country soldiers usually being lazy.

But in this life and death situation, they displayed excellent military acumen.

However, no matter how hard they tried.

With the power of anti-aircraft guns, it was clearly difficult to penetrate the 'Magic Reflection Shield'.

At this time, everyone in Osan Base saw that the air hit by cannonballs around the transport ship was constantly showing transparent layers that looked very much like water surface ripples, but also faintly shimmering with colorful light.

Their expressions were exactly the same as those of the marines from the Hanguk East Sea Fleet before.

All were looks of disbelief, incredible shock.

After all, this was an energy shield!

Of course, despite the shock, the soldiers operating the anti-aircraft guns never relaxed their triggers.

However, seeing that they couldn't cause damage to the transport ship, many people swept their firepower towards the 'snowflakes' that were descending.

And surprisingly, it had an effect.

Many unlucky airborne soldiers were hit by the anti-aircraft gun's 40mm shells, and their entire bodies instantly exploded into a mass of crimson 'blood flowers'.

For a time, they suffered heavy casualties.

This was unavoidable.

Since it was war, the World Government side naturally also had the resolve to suffer casualties.

Not to mention that their airborne unit, although belonging to the Air Force Headquarters and considered part of the Main Battle Legion in terms of establishment.

In essence, there wasn't much difference from the Special Legions of the Auxiliary Legion.

That is, a branch of troops possessing a certain otherworld power.

Moreover, the Command Department has already decided that once the Marines and Air Force are integrated.

These airborne units, mainly composed of Eldians, will be transferred to the Air Force of the Auxiliary Army.

[Da da da da da!]

[Boom! Boom! Boom!]

Not long after, when the airborne soldiers descended to a certain height, the other soldiers in Osan Base had already picked up their firearms and began to strafe the air madly, and some even carried rocket launchers to fire shells one by one.

However, although this caused more sacrifice on the airborne side, it also gave them the ability to counterattack!

They were not ordinary paratroopers!

"Feel it, the fear of giants..."

An Eldian still in the air, ignoring the bullet rain sweeping past, bit his right hand fiercely with his slightly yellowed teeth.

[Zzzzzzzzzzzzz----]

Immediately, blood splattered from his palm.

He and the other Eldians who made the same movement began to show many crackling golden lightning on their bodies.

Although the scene was not as brilliant and spectacular as the transformation of the 'Nine Titans', their numbers were sufficient.

Looking up from below, it was as if the original 'snowflakes' had suddenly turned into balls of golden, shimmering thunder and lightning.

Their dazzling golden light instantly covered the entire sky above Osan Air Base, and then...

[Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!]

Amidst the continuous huge explosion sounds, the balls of golden light quickly dissipated.

But the Lighthouse Country soldiers inside the base showed an even more terrified expression than before.

Because they saw naked, but abnormally huge giants falling from the air!

"God, are you kidding me..."

"My God, if this is a dream, please wake me up immediately!"

Every soldier was dumbfounded, completely stunned.

It wasn't until the sound of 'bang bang bang' landing echoed, declaring that everything they saw was not an illusion, that they were startled awake by the scene of Pure Titans emerging from the smoke and dust.

The Lighthouse Country soldiers fired frantically at the giants rushing towards them.

However, although the bullets went in, they only made small holes in their bodies and caused no further effect.

Not even a drop of blood flowed out... because they had no blood in their bodies.

Not only that, some sharp-eyed soldiers despairingly saw that even the bullet holes were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye!

[Boom!]

A Pure Titan's palm landed, instantly crushing three soldiers holding M4A1 assault rifles to death.

Another Pure Titan not far away swung its palm, sending two soldiers trying to escape flying.

As mentioned before, at Im's requirement, Ymir gave all adult Eldians the special ability to transform into Pure Titans at any time, and the ability to restore their human form periodically through mental will.

At the same time, she no longer allowed them to eat humans, but to fight through primitive hand-to-hand combat.

Although due to Ymir's ability restriction, she could not let these Pure Titans without self-awareness use firearms or more complex weapons and equipment.

But she could turn the Eldians' martial arts ability into the Pure Titans' body instinct.

This made every Pure Titan present an Abnormal Titan who knew professional combat technique and could run and jump quickly!

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

"No!!!"

"Monster! God, why can't they be killed!"

In an instant, the vast Osan Air Base became a playground for Pure Titans and an Asura Field for Lighthouse Country soldiers.

Everywhere was a scene of giants massacring human soldiers.

Those anti-aircraft guns were also greatly destroyed by the giants.

This was because when Eldians transform, they silently recite their upcoming combat target in their heart.

For example, killing creatures with certain characteristics, and destroying things with certain characteristics.

Then, after transforming into Pure Titans, they will instinctively act according to these targets.

"Nightmare, this is definitely a nightmare, I had a dream of hell..."

A dark-skinned soldier numbly watched the giant's fist falling on his head.

[Boom!!]

The fist fell, and his entire body instantly turned into slightly blackened 'ketchup'...

However, not all airborne soldiers chose to transform into Pure Titans.

Some, seeing that their side had enough Pure Titans, picked up their specially modified M1911 pistols. Using the grappling hooks installed under the grip, they quickly shuttled between the buildings within the base.

At the same time, they shot and killed every Lighthouse Country soldier holding a gun along the way.

Wherever they passed, one by one, fresh lives turned into bloody corpses and fell to the ground.

Although the order from above was to try to capture alive the pilots and technicians.

In their understanding, anyone holding a gun could not be a pilot or technician.

Even if they were, if you were holding a gun, you had to be treated as if you weren't.

Otherwise, what could they do?
