“Well I know a lot about our studies of magnetic energy and quite a bit, I might add,298Please respect copyright.PENANAe1iMbZTmIr
about our achievements with electric fields capable of disabling all sorts of electronics,298Please respect copyright.PENANALTHVU0p8ZN
but I never heard of any sort of EMP (electromagnetic pulse) quite like this.” she then298Please respect copyright.PENANAych3zSygU0
looks up towards the clouds and continues.298Please respect copyright.PENANAnBVqPi6a6r
“With all of the tests we performed, the basic principle was mostly the same; a298Please respect copyright.PENANAB3M22kLrlo
mass amount of pre-set energy is released way up above at higher altitudes, that then298Please respect copyright.PENANAaB8bBBIe7g
spreads taking down electric devices in its wake. But the equipment we carry with298Please respect copyright.PENANAHkEjIqaLur
us to the field is specifically designed to counter such effects, to resist any sort of298Please respect copyright.PENANAo9DKBuHJXM
disablement known to us and yet it too is mostly dying and with the rest of it soon298Please respect copyright.PENANAfUAfduAHyD
failing. The same goes for the aircraft that brought us here, also designed to counter298Please respect copyright.PENANAUuSNgwRYF4
these sorts of attacks. This is like nothing we are familiar with and it came from one298Please respect copyright.PENANAUk0MY6InRg
of our very own facilities?298Please respect copyright.PENANA2sxu3xZ2xJ
I am usually allowed into not so easily accessible files often by his majesty himself298Please respect copyright.PENANA3GIFxXJ0bm
and I have no knowledge of us having this type of technology. This is something298Please respect copyright.PENANAsTFgvHTucI
different from what we currently master; it is a different technology, way more298Please respect copyright.PENANAzgEmIZqIC2
advanced, more powerful, and capable of affecting a broader variety of things.298Please respect copyright.PENANA6Xb1aDydys
This is beyond anything we’ve supposedly own and it seems to last longer as well -298Please respect copyright.PENANAP8xY7KimWM
almost permanent - as its effects continue to fully disable even hours after its original298Please respect copyright.PENANAPRvuSsuVYW
release which brings me to my main point...” Celle puts her eyes on their leader and he298Please respect copyright.PENANAceG4pB93QM
stops in his tracks “whenever such a massive detonation occurs in the sky the obvious298Please respect copyright.PENANAWg1ignjIFW
signs of such endurance linger, for miles around and many days to come, that is why298Please respect copyright.PENANAjzQMouYgUC
our tests take place in faraway locales hidden from unauthorized eyes but here... there298Please respect copyright.PENANANaj9XEV61I
is no trace, there is no sign at all! The sky holds no evidence. Nothing almost as if...”298Please respect copyright.PENANAkdCI3wHCJB
“As if no detonation ever took place...” adds Deena.298Please respect copyright.PENANA66WP0hUZ0w
“Exactly...” resumes Celle “there is definitely energy and effect but no signs of the298Please respect copyright.PENANAO9fbJusDbP
source.”298Please respect copyright.PENANAtjzX96JDDy
“That is because no detonation ever took place.” they all look at Dhanel Marce as this298Please respect copyright.PENANAJwVyrw7jUq
one continues unsurprised “Well, not up in the sky anyway... but deep underground...”298Please respect copyright.PENANAvDZ3GABABO
“What? How?” asks Celle.298Please respect copyright.PENANATivnbddG8g
“More important is the “why” ... says Deena “Why did they do it?”298Please respect copyright.PENANAcnlpeFmL9r
“So boss, what is the story here?” Harigar Rhim couldn’t help himself but interject298Please respect copyright.PENANALyYI4kifRP
as he so often does “Can you just cut to the chase? What is happening tonight?”298Please respect copyright.PENANAV52gnHKqoO
Celle first looked behind towards the black-cloaked tattooed man and his questions;298Please respect copyright.PENANAOVJoNPETJJ
her eyes then travelled through her other two companions till they finally landed to298Please respect copyright.PENANA7B30hwXKtB
her left, on the leader of the five, on a captain with a pondering expression around him,298Please respect copyright.PENANAjOIDs08Uh6
even more so than usual.298Please respect copyright.PENANAej9NetzktL
The one who will soon brief them without even slowing his pace or looking back298Please respect copyright.PENANAeUGzc9Mkix
carries a heavy brow... “I am wondering how I should put the cards on the table.”298Please respect copyright.PENANAvvDrXZBGGX
“Sir?” Celle asked him not hiding her share of confusion.298Please respect copyright.PENANA7kEvRzMHUP
“Never mind...” Dhanel Marce let a short smile go and then his tone of voice298Please respect copyright.PENANAczB1FPFKis
changed into a more authoritarian one “Alright listen up, cause here it is...” he snapped298Please respect copyright.PENANAwcIWRddEi6
his fingers twice as it is ritual by now, the signal for all of them to shut up and listen298Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6C8TvgiHe
without interruption.298Please respect copyright.PENANAL3Uy7g2suv
“I am certain you are all aware of the Beriheim Incident six years ago. You have298Please respect copyright.PENANADl4I5yYEsZ
studied it likely more than once during your long and arduous training; whether you298Please respect copyright.PENANAHSdA7ddoZL
did so in history class or science or both, there is no escaping it as even in theology298Please respect copyright.PENANA24meHKHcis
classes it’s something brought up on a fairly basis. Everyone knows about it and298Please respect copyright.PENANApIc0iNS7gl
naturally many enjoy all the discussions and speculation it brings. It is a great part of298Please respect copyright.PENANAreLbpjlmFa
our history albeit a tragic one, a recent one at that which reinforces, even more, the298Please respect copyright.PENANA3krb6Z9ZX2
appetite to talk about it... and so, of course, everyone does... everyone wildly spreads298Please respect copyright.PENANAbFnSrWldyv
their opinions and hastily loosens their tongues... and they are all wrong...”298Please respect copyright.PENANACmt19hTBiE
Dhanel Marce took second place closely behind Deena and the others will follow298Please respect copyright.PENANAa9xouslVBY
him closely for the duration of the briefing “I will tell you the truth about the top of298Please respect copyright.PENANADGrqcmRYit
that mountain for that is a crucial part of our mission tonight.”
