The world was shocked by the news that Earth Fleet had landed in San Francisco after breaking through the resistance of the United States.
No one had expected the US military to collapse in a single battle.
Especially since they failed to inflict any effective damage on Earth Fleet.
Even without the participation of the Pyeongyang, which was presumed to have the most powerful combat power.
The scene of Earth Fleet activating the etheric field and crossing the Golden Gate Bridge looked like an alien invasion from a sci-fi movie.
But that was a harsh reality.
—Why are they giving up so quietly? What are the navy and the coast guard doing?
—Think about it logically. They must have been smashed to pieces.Follow the latest novels on
—I thought they were similar in firepower and had ion beams for defense, but it was not at all...
—We were all deluded. We thought that a new country that was less than 10 years old could not beat the United States, which had been the strongest for nearly 100 years.
—Even so, it’s too one-sided. The gap was bigger than I thought.
—Who can stop the United Human Federation now?
—I guarantee you, the United Human Federation will be a bigger bully than the US or China. How many wars have they started so far?
According to what was revealed, this war was provoked by the US, but that did not matter to the critics of the United Human Federation.
To them, Yujiha and the United Human Federation were evils that brought war.
However, despite their wariness, their views on the United Human Federation increased.
—The US should give up its superpower status now.
—Everything will change when this war is over. Whether we like it or not, the United Human Federation will reorganize the world, and those who can’t keep up will be extinct.
—But the US hasn’t surrendered yet, right? They have one last move left.
—If they use it, the United Human Federation won’t sit still either.
The last move was nuclear weapons.
The US did not activate its nuclear force even though its navy and air force were destroyed.
Because if the United Human Federation blocked it, it would be the end of America.
They could not use it recklessly because they did not know what kind of defense system they had.
But as Earth Fleet landed on the mainland, the Pentagon began to seriously consider the option of a nuclear attack.
However, there were some problems with launching a preemptive nuclear attack.
—Is it possible to neutralize the enemy with nuclear weapons? It could be a fuse that makes them shoot antimatter missiles at American cities.
—The United Human Federation has enough technological capabilities to block our nuclear attacks. But we don’t.
—If the antimatter missile they tested on Mars explodes in New York, at least 5 million people will die. If they target 10 major cities, it’s more than 30 million. Can we afford that?
They could not risk deleting 10% of their population and launch a nuclear attack on the United Human Federation.
Above all, the Pentagon generals were afraid of the United Human Federation’s technology.
They also considered the possibility of a false flag operation, so they kept the nuclear suitcase in a safe at the White House and Pentagon and required at least three people’s consent to open it.
However, despite this cautious attitude, they faced fierce criticism from citizens as Earth Fleet landed on their homeland.
What are they doing with 10,000 nuclear missiles?
In fact, in major cities like New York, groups supporting a preemptive nuclear attack on the United Human Federation marched around shooting guns.
The police force tried to suppress them, but there were too many people and bloodshed was feared.
“We’re all going to be slaves of artificial intelligence if we just watch!”
“Now! Shoot! That damn! Nuke!”
Despite these shouts, America’s leaders did not decide to launch a nuclear attack.
The risk was too great if they failed.
The United Human Federation could block their slim chance of success and destroy America entirely.
As they pondered deeply, Earth Fleet continued to destroy military facilities near San Francisco.
The army forces that were in combat readiness were stunned by the massive firepower and ran away.
Behind them, a cruiser fired a beam of light that was witnessed by fleeing army forces in armored vehicles.
Strangely enough, everything that touched that beam exploded as if it had exploded.
A reporter who was dispatched to the scene stuttered speechlessly.
“Uh... I’m here where Earth Fleet’s attack is continuing. As you can see, this is completely different from lasers. Light, a pillar of light? This is really...”
Then a missile came from somewhere.
The reporter didn’t even notice it before a laser shot out and intercepted it.
Boom!
A fighter jet and missile fragments fell into downtown at the same time and people screamed and ran away.
“Damn it!”
There might be a weakness in the Korean Peninsula, which was the origin of the United Human Federation, but there was no way for the fleet to go there.
“They are so lax and underestimate us. Both Earth Fleet and mega-city. We have to take advantage of that. Equip all aircraft with Hafnium2 warheads. We’ll knock down that wall in one breath.”
If the landing fleet approached, the railgun would not stay still, but they had to sacrifice anything at this point where their homeland was invaded.
F-35B fighter jets loaded with Hafnium2 warheads took off for short-range takeoff.
There was no aerial refueling aircraft, so takeoff was very risky and early warning aircraft support was also difficult.
More than 100 F-35B fighter jets approached mega-city and realized too late that railgun projectiles were flying at them and turned their noses.
Boom!
A few fighter jets exploded in an instant and missiles were fired.
Most of the more than 200 missiles were shot down by railguns and scattered debris into the sea, but about 10 succeeded in rushing to close range.
And they finally exploded near the defensive wall and made a huge hole.
When Hafnium2 warheads exploded, giant lumps of light melted black metal whole.
“Yes!”
“It’s a success!”
The officers on board clenched their fists on the bridge of the flagship.
They succeeded in inflicting effective damage for the first time in a war with the United Human Federation.
It was quite symbolic since it was their first mega-city.
As the defensive wall collapsed cleanly, the facilities inside were exposed.
Now they had to push their troops in there, but it was not easy to approach.
Dozens of railguns started operating fully and poured projectiles.
The landing fleet sacrificed their maneuverability and added black metal armor plates to their hulls, but they could not help being pierced through.
The landing ship suffered heavy damage while approaching Terra Island and opened its well deck to spill out its troops inside.
But there was a problem.
The hole that had barely been opened began to close again.
Black metal rose up in an instant and filled up the hole before landing craft reached shore.
Admiral Flores watched this scene from afar on his flagship and blew out a long cigarette smoke.
He had repeatedly suggested that it was an impossible operation, but it was a result of being pushed by the White House.
“Stupid bastards.”
With that said, all operations of the landing fleet turned to failure.
The Seoul-class cruiser that departed from Seoul led the combat ships that came out of the underwater base and formed a detachment.
These three ships ambushed the landing fleet and inflicted fatal damage.
They did not fire directly at humans, so quite a lot of troops were captured.
They were taken into the mega-city under the surveillance of drones and androids.
“Being captured by artificial intelligence is the end.”
“They’re sure to use us as batteries.”
The prisoners had heard some strange rumors, but nothing like that happened.
The androids did not treat them kindly, but they did not torture them either.
Treating the wounded and supplying food and supplies was basic.
Admiral Flores, who was captured, thought that the war was over when he saw his soldiers fall for the androids’ temptation.
‘In the end, the United Human Federation did not suffer any damage.’
Was America too weak, or was the United Human Federation too strong?
Whatever the cause, America lost all its expeditionary capabilities.
All that was left was nuclear power, but the White House did not seem to use it.
Public opinion was tilting rapidly.
As Earth Fleet advanced westward, America suffered too much damage.
The damage to the US military was one thing, but frequent battles near cities caused a lot of damage to civilians.
Especially those who used to think of war as someone else’s problem were shocked.
They felt their lives being destroyed as all traffic was blocked and chaos broke out throughout the city.
“This is not right...”
“If I knew this was war, who would have agreed?”
“Please stop now... please...”
But it was too late to stop the war.
Earth Fleet crossed the continent and headed for the east coast.
Their destination was Washington DC.
