The Golden Gate Bridge stood on the Golden Gate Strait in San Francisco, California. It was one of the world's most famous bridges and a miracle of modern bridge engineering.
The bridge was more than 1,900 meters long and took four years to build. It used more than 100,000 tons of steel and cost 35.5 million US dollars to build. It was designed by bridge engineer Joseph Strauss.
In order to ensure the shipping on the Gateway Strait, the Golden Gate Bridge was designed to be more than 130 meters above the sea. In other words, people who jumped from here would be jumping from 40 to 50 floors.
Just as Wind Void led everyone to jump down, the bridge behind them, whether it was the bridge surface or the pillar under Qiao Liang, exploded.
After the explosion, many people heard a sound that made their teeth ache. It was as if a steel beast was gnawing at the bridge with its iron teeth.
At this moment, a few US soldiers who had worked as engineers on the bridge hurriedly shouted,"Run! Hurry up and run! The steel beams and suspension cables on the bridge were breaking! This was the sound of the metal fibers inside the suspension cable breaking!”
The sounds were everywhere. The US soldiers who didn't die in the explosion immediately threw away their heavy equipment and began to run for their lives on both sides of the bridge.
However, don't forget that the bridge is two kilometers long! It would take a long time to escape!
In the end, a bowl-thick steel cable on the outermost side of the bridge snapped with a bang. The heavy steel cable flew into the air from the fracture and finally fell heavily, sweeping across the second steel cable beside it.
The impact was like a domino effect, triggering a chain reaction. The steel cables were broken one after another. The steel cables that were still hanging on the steel beams were like Medusa's snake hair, dancing wildly in the air above the Entrance Strait. The steel cables below were like the tentacles of a sea monster, fiercely hitting the bridge.
The steel cable weighed several tons. When it hit the road, a few or even a dozen US soldiers who were caught off guard turned into a pile of flesh and blood in an instant. The huge inertia caused the steel cable to sink deeply into the bridge, and the flesh and blood of the soldiers also soaked into a large piece of broken concrete under their feet.
Finally, like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the last steel cable on the steel beam in the middle of the bridge could no longer bear the huge burden of the bridge alone. After a loud bang, it broke.
The people on the shore saw the entire bridge tremble violently like a patient who was terminally ill and convulsing all over. Then, it began to collapse and shatter.
Like a stone statue that had lost its splendor, the bridge shattered into countless pieces and fell into the Entrance Strait below. The 130-meter drop made these pieces have a powerful impact. Waves that were several meters high instantly surged on the sea.
Ten minutes later, the North American Counter-terrorism Command received news that the Golden Gate Bridge had collapsed in an explosion caused by bandits. Hundreds of soldiers died on the spot in the explosion. Most of the remaining soldiers died in the sea along with the collapsed Golden Gate Bridge because they did not retreat in time.
The commander reported this tragic result to the president who stayed in Washington with a trembling voice. The president said hysterically,"What about the survivors? Even if there was only one! Is there?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. President. When the bridge completely collapsed, not a single soldier was able to escape.”The commander said with grief,""All the soldiers fell into the sea along with the bridge. You have to know that the height difference between the Golden Gate Bridge and the sea is 130 meters.”
The entire North America was plunged into an unprecedented despair and sorrow. Many people began to think about how to get the US out of the dark clouds of terrorist attacks.
What should he do?
Why, why did this demon-like king keep his eyes on the US? The former world overlord once thought that he was omnipotent. If he wanted to launch a terrorist attack in the United States, he would have to pay a painful price.
To this day, any organization or country that dared to launch a terrorist attack in the United States was either completely annihilated or directly destroyed. This made the proud citizens of the United States feel the national prestige of 'no matter how far'.
But now, the King had launched terrorist attacks in the United States again and again. This time, the United States could basically be considered to be using the entire country's strength to deal with him. The citizens of the United States were also very cooperative with the government's actions. They gave up their travel and gave up many of their rights so that the government could more smoothly implement the blockade on the King and the Empire.
But even so, they still failed. They lost in a mess.
"How is the king now?" The president asked," A drop of more than 130 meters. Our soldiers can't stand it. They shouldn't be able to stand it either. The king is dead, right?"”
" It's hard to say now," the commander said." Before they blew up the bridge, they used wingsuits to fly away. They flew very fast and eventually fell into the ocean.
We have already sent people and submarines to search. There should be results soon…"
"Don't send any submarines or underwater detectors. Just send the sub-hunters and let them use depth charges!”" Seal off the surrounding waters," the president said." It hasn't been an hour since they disappeared. Seal off the waters within 50 kilometers. Have the sub-hunters drop depth charges into every corner of this area!"
I want to turn this sea into a dead sea! Anyway, the Golden Gate Bridge is gone now. We have nothing to worry about. The battle is not over yet. Everyone, continue until the king is dead!”
The president was the president. Although he would sometimes be crazy, when it came to a critical moment, he could still maintain his rationality and make the wisest choice.
That's right, depth charges were the nightmare of all underwater personnel and submarines. Don't think that explosives are useless underwater. That's just a trick used in movies.
After the explosion of the depth bomb, the flames and fragments produced would not be able to spread too far due to the blockage of the water current. Therefore, the direct killing range was very limited.
However, the most terrifying thing about it was not these two points, but the powerful shock wave produced after the explosion!
