Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 1184 - 1180: Magnetic Power
"She’s not home. When will she be back?"
Upon hearing the knock on the door, Xiao Yue welcomed Zhong Xiaonan inside.
"I don’t know either," Xiao Yue said.
"But you can wait here."
Xiao Yue knew Zhong Xiaonan’s background, so she treated her very well.
"Well then, thank you."
Zhong Xiaonan didn’t stand on ceremony. After all, it was a task assigned by the director, and it had to be completed.
So Xiao Yue led her to the balcony, to the spot where Shen Siyuan often sat.
"Are you the only one at home?" Zhong Xiaonan asked curiously.
She was very clear about the number of people in Shen Siyuan’s family, hence the question.
"Yes, they’re all out."
Xiao Yue poured Zhong Xiaonan a glass of water, then sat opposite her, picked up the book she hadn’t finished reading, and continued reading in silence.
Zhong Xiaonan also took out her phone and began to browse through it. For a moment, the two sat in silence, neither finding it strange.
Meanwhile, at the communications center of the Mei Army base on Nagakoku Island, encrypted radio waves suddenly came to life as the Mei Country military directives were issued.
"Satellites have detected a super strong energy peak near the target island’s surrounding waters, possibly remnants of new weapon tests. Orders are for the island-stationed Mei Army to immediately dispatch aerial and naval forces to closely detect the energy source, collect relevant data, and confirm whether it relates to Panda Country’s military..."
The commander stationed on the island received the order and wasted no time, immediately issuing a mobilization order. Two F-15J fighter jets, like silver arrows, pierced through the sky.
Simultaneously, the destroyer named "Wu Island" also cut through the waves, speeding towards the island where Shen Siyuan was located, with the ship’s phased array radar scanning in all directions, closely monitoring the surrounding sea area dynamics.
At the same time, on the Taiwan Navy’s "Success" class destroyer "Jigang," captain Lin Zhenghong also received orders from higher up.
"Closely monitor the Mei Army’s actions in the target sea area, dispatch vessels to the relevant area to investigate the energy anomaly, and if necessary, cooperate with the Mei Army’s actions..."
Unaware of any of this, Shen Siyuan was immersed in the simulation of Primordial Magnetic Power on the island.
The Five Elements Primordial Magnetic Sword in his hand emitted radiance, the Five Elements Power and Primordial Magnetic Power coiling intricately around its blade, producing a subtle hum.
The Magnetic Seed within him glowed brilliantly, like a dancing star, establishing an unending connection with the Earth Mother’s Primordial Magnetism surging beneath the deep sea.
An invisible magnetic field spread from him as the center, extending over a hundred miles of seawater, the tidal rhythms of the sea, the rugged contours of underwater reefs, even the water disturbances caused by fish and shrimp swaying their tails, all vividly presented in his consciousness. This sea area had long become a part of his seamlessly controlled "Absolute Domain."
As the F-15J fighter jets and "Wu Island" destroyer entered the magnetic field, Shen Siyuan immediately sensed it.
"Are they coming for me?" Shen Qingzhou did not find it surprising. Such a significant commotion naturally attracted the attention of relevant forces.
Yet which faction was approaching?
Shen Siyuan felt a sense of doubt, but it was quickly answered. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
The electromagnetic waves permeating the air were captured and analyzed by his Primordial Magnetic Power, and a clear English dialogue echoed in his consciousness: "Confirm target island coordinates, reconnaissance pod activated, no obvious military facilities detected..."
Since they weren’t his own, it was just the right time to test them.
To see how his Primordial Magnetic Divine Sword compared in power to human technology.
With that thought, the Magnetic Seed within him suddenly erupted, and the immense Primordial Magnetic Power broke through the confines of his corporeal form, instantly merging with the magnetic layers in the sky, the magnetic veins in the earth, and the magnetic currents in the ocean. The Primordial Magnetic energy within heaven and earth converged like rivers flowing to the sea, rushing madly toward the Five Elements Primordial Magnetic Sword in his hand.
Originally several feet long, the sword instantly surged, transforming into a brilliant sword beam a hundred meters high. Surrounded by radiant light, the Five Elements’ colors rippled and interwove along the blade’s edge, countless tiny magnetic arcs danced like silver snakes, exuding a world-destroying pressure.
Wherever the sword beam reached, the air was distorted by the intense magnetic field, forming rippling waves visible to the naked eye. Even light was refracted at this moment, resembling a rainbow spanning the heavens and earth, but with a deadly sharpness.
The two F-15J fighter jets were approaching the island at supersonic speed, the pilots meticulously operating the reconnaissance pod, trying to capture the energy source’s specific location.
Suddenly, a brilliant light tore through the sky like a divine blade, suddenly appearing before the cockpit. The two pilots’ pupils contracted abruptly, but couldn’t even pull the control stick before the hundred-meter sword beam fell with thunderous force.
"Screech!"
The sound of two crisp cuts overlapped, the extreme speed of the cuts making even the sound of tearing metal seem extraordinarily brief.
The two F-15J fighter jets were precisely split in half by the Primordial Magnetic Divine Sword, their fuselages instantly dismantling in the luminescent glow. Fuel and parts scattered into the air like broken pearls, yet the expected explosion did not occur.
The sheer speed of the cuts left the ammunition and fuel without the conditions to detonate.
The fragmented aircraft were carried by the airflow, rapidly plummeting toward the sea. Two transient splashes of water erupted and vanished in an instant.
The phenomena in the sky threw the crew of the "Wu Island" destroyer into extreme panic, but the captain reacted quickly, shouting orders: "Enemy attack, fire at will, blanket strike..."
The destroyer’s bow gun, side close-in weapon systems, and vertical launch systems instantly activated, countless shells trailing orange-red flames descended toward the island like torrential rain. The dense fire net seemed about to level the entire island, akin to a grand yet deadly scorched-earth attack.
However, in the face of the overwhelming barrage of shells, Shen Siyuan merely waved the Primordial Magnetic Divine Sword lightly.
The hundred-meter sword beam trembled slightly, the immense Primordial Magnetic Power transformed into an invisible barrier, enveloping all incoming shells.
In the next second, countless shells abruptly halted mid-air, then collectively exploded, the dazzling firelight blossoming like fireworks illuminating the entire sea, yet not a single fragment breached the magnetic barrier. Not even a scratch was left on the island’s reefs.
Standing silently on the island, Shen Siyuan’s garments fluttered in the magnetic energy stream, and the hundred-meter radiant sword beam in his hand continued to emit a daunting pressure, his cold gaze locked onto the "Wu Island" over the sea.
Shen Siyuan swung the Divine Sword again, the Primordial Magnetic Sword descended with the force of thunder, cleaving the ocean in two. Without losing momentum, it pierced through the destroyer’s deck and keel, splitting it completely from bow to stern.
Sea water ferociously rushed into the fractured hull, the two halves of steel wreckage tilted and sank on the sea’s surface, the crew struggling in the sea eventually swallowed by the cold water.
The entire process took no more than five seconds, the ten-thousand-ton destroyer was reduced to a pile of wreckage, sinking into the seabed.
This shocking scene was witnessed clearly by everyone on the distant "Jigang" destroyer.
The telescope in Lin Zhenghong’s hand clattered onto the deck, his face pale as paper, his body uncontrollably trembling.
"What... what is that?" The radar operator’s voice trembled, eyes filled with terror.
"Quick, turn around, full speed retreat, immediately, at once..."
Lin Zhenghong snapped back to reality, shouting orders.
