“Well I know a lot about our studies of magnetic energy and quite a bit, I might add,295Please respect copyright.PENANAotmXdOwLpO
about our achievements with electric fields capable of disabling all sorts of electronics,295Please respect copyright.PENANAqxwz1SeI70
but I never heard of any sort of EMP (electromagnetic pulse) quite like this.” she then295Please respect copyright.PENANAxcRXUmEOQf
looks up towards the clouds and continues.295Please respect copyright.PENANAPyyud9u4qF
“With all of the tests we performed, the basic principle was mostly the same; a295Please respect copyright.PENANAgLQihnw1Bq
mass amount of pre-set energy is released way up above at higher altitudes, that then295Please respect copyright.PENANAhB7qiiijaQ
spreads taking down electric devices in its wake. But the equipment we carry with295Please respect copyright.PENANAXK3L9boGUn
us to the field is specifically designed to counter such effects, to resist any sort of295Please respect copyright.PENANA9jVjgLhS51
disablement known to us and yet it too is mostly dying and with the rest of it soon295Please respect copyright.PENANA6BKM2Ls4vo
failing. The same goes for the aircraft that brought us here, also designed to counter295Please respect copyright.PENANA7IRu3vmo4F
these sorts of attacks. This is like nothing we are familiar with and it came from one295Please respect copyright.PENANASjAtH3gjnV
of our very own facilities?295Please respect copyright.PENANAtiYQK1scyd
I am usually allowed into not so easily accessible files often by his majesty himself295Please respect copyright.PENANAoZm1EDqdzh
and I have no knowledge of us having this type of technology. This is something295Please respect copyright.PENANAMy8UtFgZfo
different from what we currently master; it is a different technology, way more295Please respect copyright.PENANAR1e75sGlxI
advanced, more powerful, and capable of affecting a broader variety of things.295Please respect copyright.PENANAIVevectLwr
This is beyond anything we’ve supposedly own and it seems to last longer as well -295Please respect copyright.PENANAjsBlYggYeX
almost permanent - as its effects continue to fully disable even hours after its original295Please respect copyright.PENANAwIDECGVQGw
release which brings me to my main point...” Celle puts her eyes on their leader and he295Please respect copyright.PENANAUjeANRqoA0
stops in his tracks “whenever such a massive detonation occurs in the sky the obvious295Please respect copyright.PENANAxdgfSWBKqo
signs of such endurance linger, for miles around and many days to come, that is why295Please respect copyright.PENANAGywGohg4hG
our tests take place in faraway locales hidden from unauthorized eyes but here... there295Please respect copyright.PENANA8Ci1eZpfGD
is no trace, there is no sign at all! The sky holds no evidence. Nothing almost as if...”295Please respect copyright.PENANAYhihUdXMDx
“As if no detonation ever took place...” adds Deena.295Please respect copyright.PENANA3QzjxA0nNw
“Exactly...” resumes Celle “there is definitely energy and effect but no signs of the295Please respect copyright.PENANA0P5GjiTrnt
source.”295Please respect copyright.PENANASVUMnhheQ8
“That is because no detonation ever took place.” they all look at Dhanel Marce as this295Please respect copyright.PENANAdJmq1mDPb4
one continues unsurprised “Well, not up in the sky anyway... but deep underground...”295Please respect copyright.PENANA9GkuYknVyO
“What? How?” asks Celle.295Please respect copyright.PENANAIIB1IBKa6J
“More important is the “why” ... says Deena “Why did they do it?”295Please respect copyright.PENANApm0STz96YH
“So boss, what is the story here?” Harigar Rhim couldn’t help himself but interject295Please respect copyright.PENANAhoc9cvkFJ0
as he so often does “Can you just cut to the chase? What is happening tonight?”295Please respect copyright.PENANALpjQJXfAtT
Celle first looked behind towards the black-cloaked tattooed man and his questions;295Please respect copyright.PENANARMp7Eid2qE
her eyes then travelled through her other two companions till they finally landed to295Please respect copyright.PENANACEVQ66a0ak
her left, on the leader of the five, on a captain with a pondering expression around him,295Please respect copyright.PENANAI3FYiiszi0
even more so than usual.295Please respect copyright.PENANAS5XaBGtcX3
The one who will soon brief them without even slowing his pace or looking back295Please respect copyright.PENANAKrOxQNg5sc
carries a heavy brow... “I am wondering how I should put the cards on the table.”295Please respect copyright.PENANAu7URwlLgMN
“Sir?” Celle asked him not hiding her share of confusion.295Please respect copyright.PENANAPLEjKMG3qV
“Never mind...” Dhanel Marce let a short smile go and then his tone of voice295Please respect copyright.PENANA2NvK1JLhdp
changed into a more authoritarian one “Alright listen up, cause here it is...” he snapped295Please respect copyright.PENANAGWj8XhydMD
his fingers twice as it is ritual by now, the signal for all of them to shut up and listen295Please respect copyright.PENANArzpUGEW4Cx
without interruption.295Please respect copyright.PENANAbUW5NVz8RV
“I am certain you are all aware of the Beriheim Incident six years ago. You have295Please respect copyright.PENANATntpqaPe8r
studied it likely more than once during your long and arduous training; whether you295Please respect copyright.PENANAOTTKQkOEgR
did so in history class or science or both, there is no escaping it as even in theology295Please respect copyright.PENANAydCPZ7qqFZ
classes it’s something brought up on a fairly basis. Everyone knows about it and295Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1lTGv05HX
naturally many enjoy all the discussions and speculation it brings. It is a great part of295Please respect copyright.PENANAxIebMFrQCe
our history albeit a tragic one, a recent one at that which reinforces, even more, the295Please respect copyright.PENANAqO5M7JYzNR
appetite to talk about it... and so, of course, everyone does... everyone wildly spreads295Please respect copyright.PENANAPhUoVPL6e5
their opinions and hastily loosens their tongues... and they are all wrong...”295Please respect copyright.PENANAvvsmnde0zb
Dhanel Marce took second place closely behind Deena and the others will follow295Please respect copyright.PENANABhE933oqcE
him closely for the duration of the briefing “I will tell you the truth about the top of295Please respect copyright.PENANA8eku1K2twf
that mountain for that is a crucial part of our mission tonight.”
