Chapter 14 Destroying the Meteor Shower
Just as everyone was preparing for the impending disaster, it struck much earlier than anyone had imagined.
On the second day after the Great Xia implemented material control, both official observatories and private enthusiasts discovered meteor showers through telescopes.
Under normal circumstances, even if a meteor were to collide with Earth, it would only hit one area at most.
But this meteor shower is different, based on the meteor shower's flight speed and Earth's rotation speed.
This meteor shower impacting Earth could very well cause widespread damage, affecting most of the planet.
If a single meteor were to collide with Earth, whether it were Great Xia, Great Goose, or the United States, they would all have the capability to destroy it directly.
However, this time it was discovered that the meteor shower that attacked Blue Star was a swarm of meteors. Even if one or two meteors were destroyed, it would not be able to stop the subsequent meteor impacts.
Fortunately, based on observation, only the first few meteors were relatively large, while the meteors following behind were relatively small.
At the Great Xia Supreme Conference, a response plan for dealing with the meteor attack was formulated.
Therefore, as soon as the meteor shower was discovered, the supercomputer was used to estimate the exact time when the meteor shower would arrive at Earth.
After obtaining estimated timeframes of ten days to twelve days.
The imperial court immediately organized personnel to clear the underground space. Thanks to the fact that most cities had built a large number of air-raid shelters to prevent missile attacks during the war.
While other countries were still debating the issue, the Great Xia Dynasty cleared out a large amount of underground space in just three days.
In two days, enough supplies to sustain the residents for about half a month were stored in the underground space.
Over two days, residents within the designated area were notified to take refuge in the underground space in an orderly manner, based on the principle of proximity.
In just seven days, while other countries were still in chaos, the vast majority of the residents of Great Xia had safely taken refuge in underground spaces.
Although he had a lot of supplies at home, Dong Qi did not stubbornly stay at home. Instead, he followed the arrangements of the neighborhood committee and went to a nearby subway station to take refuge from the disaster.
Of course, there were also some people who did not follow the official instructions to enter the designated area to take shelter, but instead went to what they considered to be safe areas to take shelter.
Although the major powers usually have many disagreements, in the face of this disaster that affects the entire planet, everyone ultimately decided to unite.
Based on observations from the space station, the major powers decided to directly detonate the largest meteors in the meteor shower, which would greatly reduce the impact damage from the meteor shower.
As for the smaller, more insignificant meteors in the meteor shower, they are expected to self-destruct during their descent.
Human civilization has developed for so many years, and apart from wars, a large part of that time has been spent fighting against nature.
Although there were victories and defeats in the confrontation between the two sides, even in defeat, humans could find ways to barely survive, which is one of the reasons why humanity has not gone extinct.
Faced with this world-ending crisis, all countries have pulled out their best tricks.
The geese chose the largest meteor in the meteor shower as their target, and their method of detonation was still their traditional method of sending large bricks flying.
No one expected that a huge missile silo was hidden underground in the cold ice field region, containing a super-large missile with a height of over 100 meters.
This missile, which is much larger than a rocket, was reportedly built to strike American spacecraft in space during the space arms race with the United States.
This deployment can be considered to make the best use of resources, all aimed at attacking and destroying hostile targets in space.
Compared to the powerful, forceful attacks of the US, the US has opted for a saturation-style offensive.
This attack method not only has a high fault tolerance, but can also consume a large amount of stockpiled goods in the warehouses of major weapons manufacturers.
With an estimated attack of hundreds of thousands of missiles, the first half of the meteor shower could be destroyed in a high probability.
Compared to the US and China launching attacks from the ground, China didn't even bother with any pretense. Apart from using ground-based anti-aircraft missiles to destroy any meteors that might collide with its territory.
Furthermore, it employed attack methods hidden in space, because the US and China mainly attacked the front of the meteor shower, so China chose to attack the meteors located in the middle.
In addition to destroying it directly, it also attempts to see if the meteors at the back of the meteor shower will have their trajectories altered by the explosion in the middle.
Just as everyone was anxiously waiting for the meteor shower to arrive, the meteor shower unsurprisingly appeared near Earth.
As scientists have predicted, it will then be accelerated and crash into the atmosphere due to the gravitational pull of Earth.
Just as the meteor shower was about to approach the atmosphere of Earth, the giant missile from the Goose arrived as scheduled, and its immense destructive power directly destroyed the largest meteor in the meteor shower.
Faced with the impending doom, the special groups hidden within the United States did not cause any trouble this time. Dense missiles rained down on the meteor shower, and spectacular explosions appeared one after another like fireworks.
Don't be fooled by the seemingly incompetent behavior of the US military; it's all a cover-up. When a real crisis strikes, the Ansar, who were previously behind the scenes, will once again take control of the situation.
This time, the US not only successfully completed its original objective, but also exceeded its target by eliminating the fragments scattered by the giant meteor that the US bombed.
Seeing that the other two overlords had already completed their planned eliminations, the Great Xia side was not lagging behind either.
No one expected that the Great Xia abandoned its original gunpowder weapons in space and instead, unknowingly, deployed electromagnetic and laser weapons that were more efficient in space.
Electromagnetic and laser weapons, unlike gunpowder weapons, do not produce a violent explosive effect when they attack a target.
However, in terms of both attack frequency and destructive power, it is no less powerful than gunpowder weapons in space.
Despite the cost of overclocking and damaging all of its weapons, Da Xia did not attack the meteors located in the middle of the meteor shower. Instead, it precisely and efficiently shattered the larger meteors in the remaining meteor shower.
After seeing that the larger meteors in the meteor shower were destroyed by the three major powers, everyone in the know felt that they would easily survive this world-ending disaster.
After all, those large meteors with greater impact force have been destroyed. Based on past experience, smaller meteors, even if they do not self-destruct during their fall, will not cause much damage to buildings on the ground.
So just as everyone was relaxing, another crisis quietly emerged.
