Steel torrents pioneering a different world

Chapter 2 The Truly Colorful Door (Please read and add to your favorites)
The sudden appearance of light was dazzling, causing the soldiers' night vision goggles to overexpose.

Many soldiers quickly adjusted their vision and visually detected the source of the light ahead!
The dappled light seemed to carry an indescribable eeriness, drawing everyone's attention.

And this colorful light also illuminated an area several kilometers away.

"what?!"

A soldier exclaimed in a low voice, his face filled with disbelief.

"Is it a flare?"

Another soldier instinctively lowered his body, his voice filled with confusion.

Outside the building, the Blue Army's company commander in charge of the attack was full of doubt: "That light looks good but is useless, and has no side effects! Is it a new weapon used in friendly military exercises?"

"That's not right! We don't have this type of blinding weapon in our inventory! Is it a new addition to the Blue Army's arsenal?"

"It shouldn't be. The information we obtained about the enemy's equipment this time is quite transparent, and the directing staff wouldn't allow the addition of new weapons arbitrarily!"

"Wait! Our individual soldier systems didn't report us as killed or wounded! This shouldn't be an offensive weapon..."

Lurking in the shadows, the Red Army soldiers on defense looked at the sudden burst of light and exchanged bewildered glances, their hearts filled with a surging tide of doubt.

Just as they were filled with doubt and uncertainty, a strange change suddenly occurred!
First, a dazzling array of colors began to flash, and then a series of sharp, piercing electrical noises suddenly came through everyone's communication headsets!

Zila——!
The noise was like countless steel needles piercing their eardrums, causing them to groan in pain!
Inside the building, a spot radiates a dazzling array of colors.

Zhao Chong, who was going downstairs to move his sniper position, spat out his chewing gum and stared blankly at the strange guy who had suddenly appeared in front of him.

This is a strange energy object that is over 5 meters tall and 5 meters wide, with a square shape and resembles a gate.

As the multicolored light dissipated, a deep blue energy glow appeared around it. Through the multicolored membrane in the center, Zhao Chong could vaguely see the indistinct mountain ridges, dense forests, and heavy snow of another world...

This thing looks like a time portal from a science fiction novel.

As Zhao Chong pondered this, he stared intently at the other side, realizing he was in deep trouble.

"What...what is this? Is it a cheat code used by friendly forces?"

"Captain, it's a time portal!" Teammate Xiao Zhou's voice rang out from ahead.

Xiao Zhou was the first to notice the anomaly. While he was on fire alert below, he discovered a group of strangers who appeared out of nowhere without any weapons or equipment.

Then, seeing the other side move and jump around, I had just reported my discovery to my team when I found that the scenery in front of me had changed drastically.

"A time portal? When did this thing appear?!"

"They just appeared; they were prepared for you!"

Zhao Chong asked in surprise, but was answered by an unfamiliar baritone voice.

Turning my head, I saw a muscular man emerge from the shadows, but he wasn't carrying any weapons.

It turned out to be the same group of people that Xiao Zhou had just spotted.

"who are you?"

"Stop, don't move!"

The burly man smiled slightly at Xiao Zhou and Zhao Chong, who were standing at the time portal. He ignored Zhao Chong's warning and strode to the door.

The burly man turned around, looked at the two soldiers, and said in a deep voice, "Behind the door lies a new world! A completely new world that can adapt to humanity! It will officially open in 72 hours!"

"Young warriors, do you wish to conquer new territories? Another world awaits you!"

Before the two could stop him, the burly man stepped into the colorful portal and vanished.

Xiao Zhou's eyes widened when he saw this!

Zhao Chong, standing nearby, nervously popped a piece of chewing gum into his mouth, staring at the portal with suspicion and uncertainty.

"Xiao Zhou, tell me, is that a person?"

"Report, it is indeed a person! He... he went straight in."

Xiao Zhou looked at Zhao Chong, then at the colorful door: "Captain, do you remember what that person said just now? That it's another world? And it will open in seventy-two hours?"

"Report it first!"

Zhao Chong felt that his worldview had been somewhat overturned. At the same time, the 72 hours with strangers and the sounds of conquering new territories surrounded him, like the tempting whispers of a devil.

Three kilometers away!

The atmosphere inside the Blue Team's command center was tense.

Colonel Man, the brigade commander, had bloodshot eyes and his brows were tightly furrowed.

"Not only will they not let us grow mushrooms, but they've also suddenly announced that we can't conduct any full-channel electromagnetic interference either. They insist on fighting some kind of symmetrical conventional war!" "Those people in the directing department are determined to make things more difficult for us!"

The staff officers remained silent.

This training exercise on the vast grasslands was like the sky falling for the Blue Army, who are known for their tendency to bully their allies.

In previous years' exercises, the Blue Army was on the defensive and the Red Army was on the offensive.

Relying on their familiarity with the terrain, the Blue Team was always able to set up their positions with ease.

However, this time the attack is coming from the Red Team, who will play the role of the sharpest blade, testing the Blue Team's ability to break through enemy lines.

It is simply contrary to Tiangang!

"Our old tactics of infiltration, surprise attacks, and decapitation strikes have all been figured out by the Red Team. Forget about offering help or poisoning us now."

"The enemy is getting increasingly sophisticated!"

"After two days of continuous fighting, we have captured far fewer areas than planned, and our losses are too great!"

"If we keep doing this, our team will lose face!"

If he fails to complete the mission, he and his unit will suffer unbearable ridicule from their comrades, which is extremely difficult for them to accept.

Commander Man's bloodshot eyes were fixed on the sand table as he rubbed his unkempt stubble. He was thinking about how to minimize losses and inflict more damage on the enemy.

"brigadier……"

Just as a operations staff officer was about to respond, he suddenly felt a tingling sensation.

Then, all the lights in the command room flickered a few times and emitted a crackling sound.

Immediately afterwards, the huge electronic sand table screen went completely black, and then it jumped to the restart screen.

Shila-

A piercing electrical hum echoed in the command room.

"Strong electromagnetic interference?"

One of the staff officers gasped in shock.

"what happened?!"

The communications soldier stood up, his face ashen.

"Commander, just now, our command and communications were completely cut off!"

"Your house was raided?"

The brigade commander and deputy brigade commander exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

The two rushed out of the command building.

"What about communications with the directing staff? Can you get in touch with them?" Commander Man asked sternly.

"It's broken, all...all broken!"

The communications soldier's voice was filled with panic.

"An extremely powerful electromagnetic pulse of unknown origin has covered the entire area! Technicians are working urgently to repair the connection and attempt to rebuild it!"

Commander Man's expression changed drastically.

"All personnel on Level 1 alert!"

His heart sank, and his mind raced.

The Red Force's equipment list for this exercise definitely does not include full-channel electromagnetic jamming weapons of this strength; at most, it includes regional electromagnetic suppression equipment.

This attack is strange!

"Could it be an enemy attack?" some speculated.

"Impossible!" another person immediately retorted. "The grasslands are our heartland. Who would dare to make a move here? Are they crazy?"

"The fighting in the west is fierce, and they can't take care of themselves. Even if the White-headed Vulture had ideas, it's impossible for them to infiltrate here and launch an attack without being detected. Unless it's an alien invasion."

The brief discussion helped everyone suppress their fear, but deeper doubts arose in their minds.

Ignoring these speculations, Brigade Commander Man sternly urged the communications officer: "Restore communications as soon as possible! All other units shall operate according to the highest-level contingency plan for unidentified attacks! Prepare for all possibilities!"

He had a feeling that this sudden anomaly was a major blunder orchestrated by the directing department.
