Cherreads

Chapter 90 - Space and Energy Weapon

"Before I start, I would like to invite our hero, General Chernov, who fought against the orc's king and successfully destroyed the monster at the final phase of the battle, let him tell us his opinion about the 'God'. Of course, for safety, he will speak with us through the phone." Ustinov speaks.

"Comrade Chernov, you are allowed to speak now."

Then, speakers around the room came up with Chernov's voice.

"Greetings to all Comrade, I am not sure what you will need to know, so I just tell you my experience in the battle. For me, all the 'god' is just like what our scientists have found out, it is just a form of energy, and as long as we can destroy it, this 'god' will fall."

"In the last battle, the main challenge was the orcs king, who still had the power of magic while our men lacked support from heavy weapons. Yet, under heavy casualties, we are still able to take down him. The problem was not obvious in the previous battle, as others had lost their magic due to the Tsar Bomb, perhaps in the future we could have some individual mecha just like how those Japanese imagine off?"

The room remains in silence.

"Sorry for the off-topic, back to what happened after we defeated the king. After that, we started to move to where we felt the energy was coming from, in this process, many of us couldn't hold, the strong radiation, and shock from the energy. In the end, I get to the front of the origin of the energy - a ring. The ring that I believe everyone has sees now. From the outside, it is just a normal ring that is nothing different from the other, but once it has been inserted into the table, it activates the monster, it acts as the energy core."

"Although this happens in the Orc's kingdom, where they rely more on their war beast to fight, causing them to be weak in front of our mechanical waves, I believe it will be similar when we are facing the others, as long as we destroy their energy core, they will fall."

What Chernov said seems easy to achieve, but the problem is, how could they destroy the energy core effectively? Sending a bunch of Spetznaz and magicians into the god body just to destroy the energy core? What if it fails? How many casualties will it cost?

"Thanks for the answer comrade Chernov, we will ask you again if we have any doubt." Ustinov talks to the phone.

After the phone was hung, Ustinov turned around and faced everyone.

"What does everyone think after hearing Comrade Chernov's words?"

"Well at least we know the way to fight against the gods, just destroy the energy core. We got the problem, now we just need to take out the solutions. So, space weapons are our solution?" Someone said.

"You are about to be right, space weapons are one of our solutions, and it will be the final solution. Instead, the real thing that I going to promote today, is our energy weapon. The space weapon, from the current stages, is just the space version of it."

"There is one thing that General Chernov did not say, what if, in the last battle, the troops outside can penetrate the monster's head and destroy the energy core? We all know that nukes are now no longer a general and also an appropriate solution for every problem we meet. The massive use of nukes in the land of plain somehow also affected the weather and dust there."

"Our energy weapon, which some people will call a laser weapon, will fill all the cons of the nuclear weapon. We plan to develop a few versions of it, the first will be the air version, and we plan to install it on IL-76, if it is too small, then it will be the tu-95."

"The one in the plane is more precise, and has a stronger penetration, we believe even is the monster we met, will not able to hold it. However, it is still a prediction, everything can only be confirmed after the research centre has done the test."

"Then the other version is the space one. The space one is not as accurate as the plane, as we do not require it to have, because its power will be stronger than the nuclear weapon. This was specifically designed to counter the undead, as you all know, our men are still unable to be immune to all their different powers of the dead, where we are unable to enter their land and our nuclear weapon has limited efficiency on their land."

"Nevertheless, the space version was designed to counter them, especially when they were ready to invade us again. Our scientists believe that all the undead power comes from a similar energy core in each province, and the space weapon, will destroy them. We expect each shot of its power to be enough to destroy a Moscow oblast"

The room was immediately filled with discussion. Everyone understands what it means, it means double the power of the 100MT Tsar Bomb but at a cheaper cost. It was designed against the undead, but what if one day, it aimed at them?

"Quiet!" By this time Andropov speaks.

When everyone settled down, he raised his question.

"How long does it need to build for the prototype?"

"I believe the earliest 2 years, latest 4 years. For the space version, 3 to 5 extra years, we have to wait for the space platform and the large strategic airlift cargo aircraft to be built as well."

 "Boost the research, I hope it can participate in the defence against the chaos."

Andropov has his answer for what Orgarkov and the general staff in his mind now after listening to the news.

"Comrade Orgarkov, let us go for the first plan, no land should be given up, I will approve the construction of the intercontinental train. Members of Politburo, do your job, boost our progress of socialism on the elves and dwarves, we need strong mobilization to finish all this. For the Motherland!"
