章 64: Tragedy

— Evening - The Sky Above Sector Alpha City  —

The sleek black jet bomber soared through the clear blue sky at an altitude of 1524 meters, high above Sector Alpha City. From this height, the target on the ground looked no bigger than a toy model. The command center had a clear view of the target despite the dim sunlight.

In the command room, the target picture from the targeting drone was displayed clearly on the screen. As the plane approached closer to the target, the commanding officer's hand began to shake, feeling the immense pressure weighing on his mind.

"We had no choice. May God forgive us," the commanding officer murmured to himself, knowing that he was about to order a massacre of innocent people.

"Confirm the target, Nest to Eagle, release the payload," the command center's voice crackled through the pilot's headset.

In the cockpit, Homer, the volunteer for the mission, hummed while piloting the plane.
