"Such methods are inherently self-destructive acts for the lower realm, which is why I said before that the lower realm generally only regards nuclear bombs as a threat. After all, if the ocean realm uses this to threaten the human realm, and our human realm does not have it, we will be in a very passive position."
"Moreover, since even gods struggle with such weapons, the Heavenly Court tacitly allows the human world to develop nuclear weapons, so that mortals can at least have some self-defense capabilities in the face of the gods, and can't rely on the Heavenly Court for everything," Zhang Wuji explained to Wang Yao.
"Oh..." Wang Yao nodded upon hearing this. He had heard of nuclear weapons and atomic bombs before he transmigrated, but the consequences of using nuclear weapons in that world were called nuclear pollution. He wondered if it was any different from the erysipelas in this world.
"If it was just a threat for show, why did the foreigners actually use it? And not just once..." Wang Yao shook his head repeatedly, unable to understand the actions of these foreigners in the foreign trade.
"I'm not entirely clear on the specifics, but during this trip I did discover that because this border region is the confluence of many interfaces, there are numerous and complex internal conflicts. Many countries and even interfaces are on the verge of conflict and are very wary of each other, so they can only rely on the arrogant country to maintain order."
"But the arrogant country is a selfish devil who only wants to take advantage of others. It loves to dig pits and set traps to seize the benefits of other realms and countries. It bullies the weak with its strength and has no say in the ocean realm. As a result, those who suffer losses naturally hold a grudge, while those with some strength envy the arrogant country's status."
“Unlike our Six Realms, where the Heavenly Court takes care of the overall situation and keeps things from going to extremes, the situation in the Ocean Realm is different. Everyone here believes in the law of the jungle, like beasts in a jungle. We can’t let our guard down for a moment. If we’re too tense, we might misjudge and end up using a nuclear bomb,” Zhang Wuji said.
Unbeknownst to them, the first nuclear missile was actually fired by the Barbarian Bear Kingdom. This was due in part to Wang Yao's involvement in the hatred, and also to Jack's palm strike.
Because Jack's palm strike not only destroyed several towns on the border between the White Bear Kingdom and the Savage Bear Kingdom, but also wiped out hundreds of thousands of soldiers stationed on the border by both countries, the gods of the Great Bear Realm had to intervene, and the ordinary foreigners in the lower realm were greatly shocked.
The Barbarian Bear Kingdom, being more technologically advanced, was the first to discover that the area of the incident resembled a human hand. They then detected several energy entities entangled in the sky above the location, radiating extremely powerful energy. From this, they quickly connected it to a terrifying existence—aliens.
In order to maintain the mystery of the upper realm, the Ocean Realm has been vigorously promoting the existence of aliens and extraterrestrial civilizations in the lower realm, so that if the Ocean Gods cause trouble in the lower realm, they can blame it on the fictitious aliens and cover it up with this kind of story.
Many of the tech-savvy people in the lower realm actually believed in this superstition and even developed a whole set of theories about aliens and extraterrestrial civilizations.
The most famous one is that the aliens' first priority is survival. They have come all the way here because they can no longer live in their original home. Therefore, alien colonization of humans is a good outcome. The worst outcome would be that the aliens would modify the entire world to make it suitable for alien survival.
In that case, humanity would only face extinction.
Because the theory of extraterrestrials is deeply rooted in the Ocean Realm, especially in the lower realm of the Ocean Realm, the battle of the gods in the sky at the border between the Barbarian Bear Kingdom and the White Bear Kingdom has become, in the eyes of the Barbarian Bear Kingdom's high-ranking officials, a battle for survival between the Great Bear Realm and the extraterrestrial civilization.
Furthermore, Wang Yao had stirred up their hatred with Jack and other alien gods, and Jack's slap was so brutal that the high-ranking officials of the Barbarian Bear Kingdom were afraid that the aliens' slaps would continue to fall one after another.
The principle of the Ocean Realm has always been to strike first, so in desperation, the Barbarian Bear Kingdom used nuclear weapons to bombard the energy bodies they detected entangled in the skies above the White Bear Kingdom.
However, the nuclear weapons of the Barbarian Bear Kingdom have always been under the surveillance of the Arrogant Kingdom. The war between the White Bear and Barbarian Bear Kingdom was originally provoked by the Arrogant Kingdom. Now that the two sides are deadlocked, in order to prevent the Barbarian Bear Kingdom from using nuclear weapons to break the deadlock, the Arrogant Kingdom has to be vigilant about the Barbarian Bear Kingdom's nuclear weapons.
So as soon as the nuclear missiles from the Bear Country were launched, the Arrogant Country immediately took notice. They were still calculating the trajectory and impact point of the Bear Country's nuclear missiles. If the Bear Country had only launched tactical nuclear missiles at the White Bear Country, the Arrogant Country might not have retaliated with nuclear missiles.
But the Barbarian Bear Kingdom was fighting aliens high in the sky, and the nuclear bombs kept flying higher and higher. The Arrogant Kingdom panicked when they did the calculations. You have to know that the trajectory of a nuclear bomb is actually a parabola. The higher the top of the parabola, the farther the range.
The arrogant nation immediately realized that this was definitely a strategic nuclear missile, and wondered if it was being fired at them. They quickly organized an interception operation on their homeland, and of course, they also retaliated by firing a nuclear missile back at the barbarian nation.
When the Barbarian Bear Kingdom discovered that the Arrogant Kingdom's nuclear missiles were coming, everything was beyond repair.
After all, the Barbarian Bear Kingdom had long harbored resentment towards the Arrogant Kingdom. The perfectly good Great Bear Realm was torn apart by the Arrogant Kingdom. Now, the Arrogant Kingdom was even more reckless, launching nuclear missiles. Wang Yao didn't even need to draw any more hatred towards the Barbarian Bear Kingdom before it was blown up. If the Barbarian Bear Kingdom was gone, what use would the world be?
So while Wang Yao and Zhang Wuji were searching for a place to expel the erysipelas, a nuclear war had already broken out within the foreign world. Bigwigs from all walks of life and countries hid in the nuclear defense facilities that had been built long ago, and then launched their nuclear bombs at the enemy with all their might.
In other words, Wang Yao and Zhang Wuji stayed in this snowy mountain far from the hustle and bustle of the world. As soon as they went down the mountain, they would see a scene of apocalypse. Under the nuclear bomb attack, most of the Yangjie and Xiajie had been completely destroyed, with rubble everywhere and very few living beings left.
