Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

However, explosions are something that cannot be avoided simply by running away.

Large numbers of American soldiers were engulfed by the shockwave from the massive explosion before they could react.

Their voices vanished in an instant!

The entire military base went from complete silence to boiling water, suddenly becoming agitated!

The military leaders reacted quickly and immediately began contacting their subordinates to try to find out what had happened.

But no matter what means of communication they used, all they received in response were endless dial tones and screams and chaotic images from various sensors and cameras.

The entire camp seemed to have been struck by a natural disaster in a short period of time, suffering a devastating blow.

"Damn it! Damn it! What's going on? What happened?"

The base commander was furious. What he wanted most right now was to find out the reason as soon as possible!

"Sir, there are no signs of an invasion of the base. None of the sensors have been triggered. However, based on the available footage, the enemy may have used some kind of intrusion method that we cannot currently understand to enter the military camp!"

The base commander's face was extremely grim. The most terrifying thing in the world is the unknown!

Anything that is known, no matter how terrible, can be solved. But for the unknown, figuring it out often requires sacrifice and time, and nobody wants that sacrifice to fall on their own head.

"Immediately report what's happening here to the White House and the Supreme Command, and request assistance from other bases. Ask them to send bombers to conduct high-altitude reconnaissance over our base. Then immediately activate all the drones in the base and spread out all these 'eyes' to find out exactly what's going on!"

Just then, the surveillance equipment began to dim one by one.

The officer, who was watching the monitor, suddenly changed his expression and began to quickly operate the computer, trying to restart the devices, but to no avail.

It's important to know that many of these devices have independent circuits, and the issue of power outages was already considered when the military camp was first designed.

Many of these independent lines are buried deep underground. Even with design drawings and knowing their exact locations, it would be very difficult to destroy them unless some deity accidentally cuts down some fiber optic cables and lines that shouldn't be dug up, which would cause this situation.

But even if it was intentional sabotage, that doesn't make sense. These lines are all independent, so it's possible that many enemies infiltrated and simultaneously destroyed the lines, right?

"Sir, the power lines to the surveillance equipment have been compromised by unknown means!"

The base commander also noticed this and immediately used a satellite phone to report what had happened to his superiors.

But by the time he finished his report, all the monitoring equipment screens had gone dark!

Even more terrifying, the lights in the command room began to flicker, and with a tremor of the lights, all the light vanished without a trace in an instant.

In an instant, the once lively and bustling command room, where officers were exchanging ideas, fell silent as if an electric shock had been switched on.

Everyone has experienced power outages, but with the progress of the times, such incidents are becoming increasingly rare.

However, there's no need to panic if this happens, because everyone knows that it will be fixed quickly. In this new era, people cannot survive without electricity and the internet.

Therefore, any government, as long as it has some capacity, will try its best to ensure the supply of electricity.

But this time it was different; when the lights went out, everyone was overwhelmed by fear!

The enemy was terrifying. They were like tiny insects wrapped in spider silk. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't find any trace of the enemy. In a very short time, the enemy cut off all the power, plunging them into darkness!

Could it be that the enemy has already reached them, is already beside them, and is waiting for an opportunity to kill them?

Stimulated by fear and darkness, sweat instantly poured down their faces like a spring. In just a few dozen seconds, many officers' clothes were already soaked!

Just as everyone's eyes were gradually adjusting to the darkness, they saw a figure hovering in front of the window. Fear erupted in that instant, and everyone collectively collapsed to the ground in shock!

Chapter 547 The Destroyed Military Base (3rd Update!)

At that moment, the base commander's adrenaline surged, and he trembled all over, but his strong mental fortitude allowed him to quickly calm down.

He rolled away on the spot and hid behind a pillar, then pulled out his sidearm and began firing at the figure outside the window.

The intense gunfire roused the officers' spirits, and they quickly reacted, searching for targets and launching an attack.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; whoever it was should be dead by now.

However, they also knew that the enemy must be numerous to have transformed the military base into what it is now, and their combat methods were unprecedented. The battle had only just begun.

However, the reality is often more cruel and terrifying than imagined.

The figure suddenly raised his hand, and against the completely dark background, a faint light shone from his body, like a dazzling halo surrounding him.

This figure was naturally Miyazaki Yu. He did not intentionally create such a halo. Psychic power is different from mental power and internal power. The essence of psychic power is a wave, similar to the essence of light. Therefore, once it is used, it will create a faint light.

In daylight, this faint light would not be very noticeable, but in this completely dark environment, it is surrounded by a fluorescent glow, making one look like a god descending to earth!

"boom!"

The entire room trembled slightly, and then Miyazaki Yu slowly floated in from outside the window. Around his body, it was as if there was an invisible spherical barrier that squeezed a circular hole into the window and the wall!

It was like a red-hot iron ball placed on the ice block, directly corroding a large, round hole in it.

Moreover, a sword aura immediately flew out, instantly piercing through the pillar, shattering the satellite phone in the commander's hand, and severing one of his hands at the same time!

"Ah!" The commander's scream immediately filled the entire command room.

Everyone in the room except him seemed to have frozen in place, standing there dumbfounded like dazed geese.

"Gudong-"

The officers in the command room couldn't help but swallow hard, beads of sweat rolling down their throats, and everyone felt their minds go blank.

If these people were all fools, they wouldn't be so afraid, but because they are all intelligent, they are even more terrified.

"It's Miyazaki the Sword Saint!"

One of them recognized Miyazaki Yu, and then they were filled with even greater fear.

These officers were actually part of the so-called upper-class elite in the United States. Since the end of World War II, control of the U.S. military has been concentrated in the hands of the elite.

If you are not from an upper-class family, it is extremely difficult to become an officer after joining the army.

Therefore, the officers in the command center were all top American elites, and naturally knew far more than the average person!

It was precisely because of this that they truly understood how terrifying the other side was.

Just then, the door to the command center burst open. It was American soldiers who had noticed something was wrong and rushed over. In fact, the entire process from the power outage to now had taken less than a minute, and the American response speed was already extremely good.

Miyazaki Yu sneered. Since he had already decided to kill tonight, there was no need to hold back.

He then opened his mouth and spat out more than ten void swords, which rushed towards the soldiers.

He just easily destroyed almost all the tanks, armored vehicles, and other weapons that were placed outside.

However, those ethereal sword energy was almost depleted. Sword energy is a consumable resource. Although it can last longer after being enveloped by mental energy and the consumption is greatly reduced, the consumption still exists.

However, even if only one of them remained, it would be enough to easily kill these ordinary American soldiers.

The American soldiers who had just rushed in didn't even have time to react before they saw a streak of light hurtling towards them, and instantly they were completely unconscious.

The sword energy pierced through the body in the blink of an eye, severing all the most important nerves in the human body. It could end a person's life in a fraction of a second, making it arguably the least painful way to die.

After all the soldiers fell, Miyazaki Yu immediately controlled the Void Sword again and attacked the officers present, who were all wiped out.

The entire process took less than three seconds!

After doing all this, he slowly walked toward the base commander.

"Sir, I have some questions for you, and I hope you can answer them properly!"

The army commander was already trembling all over!

Ten minutes later, two planes flew over the military base and conducted reconnaissance over the entire base, which was already in a shocking state.

The entire base was engulfed in flames. Apart from that, no trace of any hostile forces was found, and there were no aircraft in the sky.

Meanwhile, inside the White House, the White House Chief of Staff dialed the president's private phone number and briefly described the events that had occurred.

"The communication reports from the military base indicate that the base was attacked by an unknown force, and the weapons and equipment of the entire base were extensively damaged. Twenty minutes have passed since the incident."

Upon receiving the request for assistance, the Northern Command urgently dispatched two SR-71 reconnaissance aircraft to conduct reconnaissance, while the base commander also responded by sending drones to conduct reconnaissance.

However, neither surveillance cameras, sensors, nor drones detected any signs of enemy intrusion. By this time, the SR-71 reconnaissance aircraft should have already reached the airspace above the base.

The president hurriedly dressed. Outside the door, White House staff had already prepared everything the president needed and took out a tablet computer that displayed the interior of the White House office.

The most powerful figures in the White House have all gathered in the Chief of Staff.

The president's face was terribly grim. When they saw the president, the shouting in the office gradually subsided, but everyone's eyes were bloodshot, and some even had their facial muscles twitching, clearly indicating that they were extremely agitated.

"Your Excellency, just now, the reconnaissance pilot reported that the entire military base has been completely destroyed. From the air, the base is a sea of ​​fire. The number of casualties is currently unknown."

"Where is the base commander? Contact the army commander. I don't want to know the casualty figures right now. I just want to know what happened. Was it a premeditated terrorist attack, or something else? I need an explanation!"

Seeing that the person on the other end couldn't answer, his expression turned even more unpleasant.

He forced himself to suppress his anger and moved forward quickly, soon entering the White House office.

At that moment, the large screen on the wall was playing footage transmitted by the reconnaissance plane. Upon seeing the president arrive, everyone hurriedly stood up. The president waved his hand, signaling everyone to sit down, and then sat down himself, looking at the screen, trying to find clues from it.

After watching the video, he continued, "What about the video footage transmitted back from the military base?"

The surveillance systems of various military bases and key departments are connected to the White House system, meaning that the White House also has backups of the surveillance data from various military bases.

Chapter 548 Showdown with America

"Your Excellency, the video footage we received did not reveal any intruders. However, the base commander's recorded conversation mentioned that in the final moments before losing contact, the entire base's electrical circuits were deliberately cut off."

This caused the entire base to lose power, and all network connections except for the satellite communication system were paralyzed.

In other words, the base's external communications were completely cut off twenty minutes ago!

"Thump!"

The president slammed his hand on the table, his face so dark it looked like it was about to drip water!

What is this? A huge US military base, with a large number of combat weapons, and an overall defense that is almost impenetrable, possessing the world's most advanced early warning and defense systems!

And just like that, it was destroyed without any explanation!

"Ding Ding Ding-"

The office phone rang at that moment, which puzzled everyone, but the official in charge answered it anyway, because the call was coming from the attacked military base.

"Hello, has anything been discovered at the base? Please explain the situation immediately!"

A soft chuckle came from the other end of the phone: "Explain the situation? What situation?"

The young official's face showed anger. What was this guy all about? Now that the military base had been attacked, the White House leadership was furious, and all the officials present were now somewhat apprehensive.
