He had sent many men to guard the mansions in the city, with shifts changing regularly. The warlord had also sent professional guards. It was airtight, not even a fly could get in.

This noon, Joyce received a phone call. Looking at the unfamiliar number on the screen, showing it was from overseas with the country code 81, displayed as Rohomes, she had a feeling it must be Reuben calling her.

Ever since Reuben had left the hospital directly that day and rushed back to Rohomes with Grizela, he had lost contact. She had worried in between, but after all it was not convenient to meddle in the affairs of other countries. So she chose not to ask.

"Reuben, actually this matter is not quite what you think. In fact, the complete blueprints for the electromagnetic pulse bomb have not been finished yet. The Warlord's side had exchanged blueprints with me before, we were improving it together. Originally, for us, the electromagnetic pulse bomb was probably only meant for security uses. Actually I also know, if you dig deeper into the design, when applied militarily, it would definitely become a technology that all countries fight to obtain. The personnel involved are all classified first-tier confidential. I won't hide it from

It was a metal rod, which could emit an electromagnetic pulse wave, causing circuit failure, interruption of shortwave communications, blown fuses, dielectric breakdown, wireless controlled devices failing, alarm control systems malfunctioning, and even radar would be affected, within a hundred meter radius.
