The Knight King Who Returned With a God

Chapter 70: The God of Electronic Warfare

Chapter 70: The God of Electronic Warfare

There was a huge country on the continent. No, the continent itself was a country.

It was a bit exaggerated and pretentious, but it boasted that it had ten thousand years of history.

It had some mishaps, but it still predicted explosive growth with its overwhelming size and population. A sleeping lion.

But the lion was slaughtered without waking up.

The Great Cataclysm, the worst disaster of mankind that announced the morning of the 21st century hit the country as gates sprouted up from all directions.

At that time, there was no system for hunters who could oppose the gates.

Most countries could not cope with the gates and lost many lands to dungeon contamination, and their cities were destroyed by monsters that came out of dungeon breaks.

It could have survived somehow with its advantages since the country had a lot of people and a lot of land.

What if some people die, what if some land is contaminated?

The population of one billion became 500 million in just one year, but there were hundreds of thousands of warriors who were loyal to death.

The communist party leaders at the time were not incompetent.

Surprisingly, they did their best for their country in this natural disaster. But??

The country was too big, too wide, and too huge.

The gates pouring out from all sides, the rigid response peculiar to dictatorship, the check on the sky warriors who suddenly gained power and exerted an undeniable influence, and the refusal of local military factions to withdraw their power revealed the corruption and decay of the country and the population continued to decrease, the land was contaminated, and food was scarce.

In the fall of 2012 the appearance of the second black gate, Shanghai Gate, and the emergence of the Archdemon Skazakaria and the epic item Wandering Demon Sword evaporated 15 million people in Shanghai.

The country began to collapse with this terrible damage as a start and local military factions rebelled against the weakened central government.

As usual in the history of the country, ambitious military factions proclaimed themselves kings.

So today in 2034 the country was torn apart into more than 50 small countries.

Here in the north-easternmost part of East Asia there are two countries from the former continental country that has been torn apart into 53 pieces.

A land of misfortune where more than half of it was contaminated by dungeon breaks, but it is adjacent to Russia and has abundant grain fields in Heilong People’s Republic and Jilin Republic, which accepted a lot of orc immigrants and lost soldiers, sky warriors and hunters while blocking monster waves.

Both countries were once huge countries, but until yesterday they were just ordinary continental countries without much presence among the other 50 states.

But that was until yesterday.

The two countries were mentioned one after another in overseas topics around the world and became the hottest countries in the world.

“Kraaam~”

Orc Private Liu of Jilin Republic Army is a typical orc immigrant.

He is exactly an immigrant of 16 generations, but since orcs become adults at two years old and start breeding, generation distinction is meaningless.

“Boss, where are all the enemies?”

Orc People’s Army soldiers approached Private Liu and they seemed to be itching to fight right away.

“The guys next door are boring! We came to fight them, but they ran away with their tails between their legs!”

“Human bastards are weak. They don’t know anything about the honor of warriors.”

Next door, that is, until two days ago they were the Heilong People’s Army who stood together on the southern border, but orcs don’t remember such old pasts.

All they know is that Rynshang Kazak, a legend among legends of orcs, became Jilin’s great chief. And if you want to eat a lot of food, you have to kill all those humans on that ridge.

The Jilin Republic, which lacked power due to continuous wars and gate raids, was destroyed by orc immigrants they accepted but the irony was that this was not orc business at all.

If they were normal civilized people, they would have negotiated and traded, but orcs solved problems in a very orc way.

“They say there’s a lot of food next door!”

“Let’s kill them all and take their food!”

Why bother trading when you can kill and take? They were different races from the beginning, so there was no reason to discuss common sense.

“I can finally eat human stew.”

“I wish humans would show up soon!”

The orc army advanced toward Heilong People’s Republic without hesitation and in front of their powerful combat power, Heilong soldiers and citizens who were fed up ran away long ago.

They tried to enter the city with the intention of looting even an empty city. And then?? something fell from the sky.

-Gwoooooooo…!

It was a 10m tungsten rod that fell at Mach 25.

“God’s rod was hacked?”

US Secretary of Defense Julius doubted his ears.

It was natural.

He heard that the secret weapon of his country, the satellite weapon ‘God’s Rod’, suddenly started to operate.

God’s Rod, a cold war thing that drops super-heavy projectiles from artificial satellites and causes nuclear weapon-level destruction.

Originally, it should have been scrapped long ago, but it was made to snipe the ‘Archdemon-class’ entity that caused dungeon breaks after the Great Cataclysm.

Of course, both the satellite and the projectile were much stronger than the original plan, and it was a hidden weapon that was literally made with the money of the 21st century America.

Such a weapon suddenly started to operate.

“What is this, how did this happen! Who issued the activation permit for the G-1 satellite!”

Only three people in the United States have the ‘password key’ to activate God’s Rod.

One is the US president. It’s like a symbol, just like a nuclear bag.

The other two are the Secretary of Defense and the Commander of the US Special Hunter Department.

And one of them, Julius Secretary of Defense, never approved this operation. Of course, neither did the president or the hunter commander.

“Was it hacked…?”

The soldiers at the command raised their hands at Julius’ question.

“The password key changes every minute. The combination pattern is over 100 million. It takes 13 years to calculate even with the world’s best supercomputer!”

Then who on earth activated God’s Rod?

“Damn, we have to stop it somehow! Is there no way to stop it at the activation stage?”

“No, impossible! The password pattern has been strengthened! The estimated pattern is over 10 billion!”

“What kind of fantasy is that?!” How is that possible?

Meanwhile, God’s Rod was preparing to operate and finished firing preparations.

“G-1 target specified! Jilin Republic…? It is! Jilin Republic?!”

“What, what nonsense? Why are they targeting them?!”

It’s an area that has been bothering the United States lately.

The coup d’etat was caused by orc soldiers and the sudden war with neighboring Heilong People’s Republic.

Normally, they would think that they should send UN troops or US troops to end the situation, but Russia suddenly intervened and blocked it.

The Heilong People’s Republic attacked the Jilin Republic first. That was the reason.

Of course it was nonsense and obvious.

If the orc army occupied Heilong People’s Republic, they would claim to be liberators of Heilong and take over Heilong grain fields next.

The United States had no intention of getting involved in protecting the remnants of a country that had already been torn apart as much as possible.

The UN also only issued a moderate criticism statement, and had no will to actively stop this war.

The northern part of the Korean Peninsula was a can of worms to begin with.

There’s no reason to bother with the Russian-backed Jilin. But??

“Damn! If God’s rod hits Jilin like this, the Russkies will jump around!”

It was an impossible thing for the United States to attack another country with nuclear weapons without a declaration of war. Even if Russia whines, it would be a bit of a hassle.

Julius Secretary of Defense made a decision.

“Fire a ballistic missile at G-1.”

“…”

No one questioned the order to destroy their own $10 billion military asset.

The soldiers in the control room silently instructed the nearest ballistic missile launch site to fire, and??

“Sir… The base is not responding.”

“What do you mean?”

It was literal. For some reason, none of the missile bases or naval fleets in the United States connected to the Pentagon responded.

‘Could it be, communication was blocked?’

How?

Regardless of the question, time went by.

“Tell the communication room to order by Morse code or something! Use analog or whatever!”

“The communication room is not responding either! Phone, internet are all down!”

“What nonsense is that?”

As if someone expected this? No. It’s too clever timing for that. As if someone next to him heard his command and dealt with it in real time.

‘It can’t be! That’s impossible!’

It can’t be. Even if all the hackers in the world unite and hack the Pentagon, it’s impossible. Secretary of Defense Julius shivered in fear in his confusion as someone in the control room shouted.

“5M65 NATO codename Grizzly confirmed to be activated!”

“…Why?”

The code name that the controller just shouted is a ruby high-output laser satellite weapon that is only activated by Russia’s dungeon break final operation protocol.

18 years ago, it was a collection of Russian military technology that sniped the army of the Frost Queen in Siberia.

It uses astronomical amounts of ruby just to operate once, and it has only operated three times in 18 years. Why did that activate now?

“Grizzly lens moving! Coordinate specified… Jilin Republic border area… What’s there that??Orc army advancing to Heilong?”

Only then did Julius Secretary of Defense realize what intention this situation had.

He didn’t know, but someone wanted to destroy the Jilin Republic and the orcs.

“Launch countdown begins! Ready to operate simultaneously with Grizzly!”

“Crazy…”

Who?

How? For what?

“5! 4! 3! 2! 1??Launched!”

The device of destruction operates.

As soon as it operated, it hit all orc armies in the Jilin Republic.

God’s rod and codename Grizzly the shot one after another annihilated the orc army in an instant.

Surprisingly, they showed accuracy that exceeded the performance of the two satellite weapons, rather upgraded, and only sniped orc armies persistently.

If there was even one civilian or humanoid other than the orcs nearby, they wouldn’t even try to bombard at all.

When this whole situation was almost over, emergency announcement videos from the White House and Kremlin were released on the Internet.

[We, the United States of America, do not tolerate the actions of the Jilin Republic Army that break peace, and fired twelve God’s rods for the protection of the Heilong People’s Republic.]

On one side was the face of the US president??

[Russia does not tolerate provocations from bad neighboring countries. We will not spare any cooperation for peace. We cooperated with the United States to specify coordinates and only against the coup army??]

On the other side, the Russian president announced his position.

And when communication was restored and Secretary of Defense Julius confirmed these videos, he shivered in fear.

“Deepfake…”

The deepfake video that could only be called perfect was blocked from being deleted.

Currently, SNS and media outlets are flooded with economic news announcing US-Russia joint attacks on the Jilin Republic coup army.

They were perfectly fooled.

Secretary of Defense Julius felt fear in front of a great hacker who could manipulate the information network of the United States and Russia in this 21st century.

Above all, what should he call an electronic war god who has near-omnipotent electronic warfare capabilities in modern times where everything runs on electronic devices and networks are developed?

“Deus…”

Deus ex Machina.

It was a machine device worthy of calling itself a god.

“Why… Did this happen?”

In Jilin Republic Presidential Office, orc chief Rynshang Kazak, who cut off the neck of the former president and took his seat, looked at the coup army that was annihilated in an instant with a blank expression.

He was a veteran of three generations of orc immigrants who conquered gates with his powerful combat power and became a power broker of the Jilin Republic. It was natural for him to kill the weakling who ordered him.

He got the big boss position, and all that was left was to start endless wars as an orc boss.

But…

Communication was blocked and all electronic systems operated by using weak human bones were completely down.

Even the encrypted communication of each unit that delivered news in analog only reported the annihilation of the unit.

“Boss, what do we do?”

“Are we fucked?”

The subordinate orc officers wanted an answer with an anxious look, but Rynshang Kazak had no answer.

“First, let’s take care of the remaining guys and take the money and run. Let’s go to the grassland and have some kids and start over.”

Orc’s fertility is terrifying and they can give birth anywhere, like popping out babies.

If you ‘work’ for five years, they can quickly grow in size, and with this much power, they will be welcomed anywhere for gate raids.

That’s how bad the situation on the continent was, and it was a country that even had to borrow orc hands.

But the machine knight who watched all this did not tolerate it.

-Kwang!

Something broke through the wall of the office and as the orcs witnessed the intruder their pupils widened.

“What, what is that!”

It was a steel armor in the shape of a human.

If you modify a medieval crude knight armor into a futuristic one, would this futuristic yet old-fashioned design come out?

The unpainted ‘Adamantite’ exoskeleton armor looked like it had been hastily pieced together and soldered together somewhere.

<Special Exoskeleton Integrated Armament Platform Mk.1>

As much as it looks like a peculiar knight armor, the weapons attached to the whole body are ferocious.

[Target target confirmed. Non-human species-orc confirmed.]

Deus ex Machina.

The armored platform of the machine holy knight who came down from the sky aimed at the culprit of this whole situation.

[Give me back my funds.]
