Then, that thing came to a halt and adjusted its hull orientation as if it were taking aim.
"Here it comes, here it comes!" everyone around shouted loudly.
Aleksei was just about to speak when a star, bright beyond compare, rose from the ground, tracing an arc toward the city.
The star burrowed into the enemy's three-story building used as a defensive fulcrum.
Nothing happened for the first second, and then a burst of light erupted from inside the building, swallowing it whole. The rooftop, adorned with the Prosen flag, and a large amount of dust ascended to the sky, becoming part of a mushroom cloud.
Aleksei couldn't help but exclaim, "Fuck!"
The sound of the explosion came a little later, followed by the shockwave that nearly knocked Aleksei to the ground.
Aleksei: "What was that? Was it the legendary 'Sword of Heaven'?"
"No, just a bunch of TNT, kid," said the veteran platoon leader. "But enough to send the Prosens soaring and terrify them out of their wits!"
