"Boom, boom, boom!"

The Woolworth Building was infiltrated by wizards during its construction. They used various spells to hide a space belonging exclusively to wizards within the No-Maj building.

As long as the correct spell is cast, one can enter the Magical Congress of the United States through a revolving door.

This is an application of extremely powerful spatial magic, equivalent to hiding the Magical Congress in another dimension different from the real world. Hogwarts' Room of Requirement is similar to this setup, and even more advanced than the spatial magic used by the Magical Congress.

Murphy and his magic research department have not fully understood the principles behind this, but this does not prevent him from being able to destroy it.

The principle of the Anti-Magic Shell is actually to interfere with the flow of magic power in the surroundings with powerful and chaotic primitive magic energy. After it explodes, it can create an area of chaotic magic power. It is not very effective for creatures like gods that rely on their own massive magic power to cast spells in a wish-like manner, but it is very effective for destroying some spells based on the Magic Net or certain rituals.

After a few Anti-Magic Shells exploded, the Woolworth Building suddenly flashed, and then a massive clock-like building appeared out of thin air, occupying the center of the building. The next instant, it disappeared again, but a massive hole penetrating several floors was left in its place.

Fortunately, the No-Majs in the Woolworth Building had all gone to take refuge after the previous air raid alarm sounded, and this impact did not hurt any civilians.

Immediately afterward, the second wave of Anti-Magic Shells hit, and the spatial magic attached to the Woolworth Building finally broke.

After frequent flashes, with a bang, countless office desks and chairs and various strange devices all poured into the building at once, and the Magical Congress was pulled into real space.

The revolving door was blown to pieces, and the Countermeasure Bureau combat unit threw a large amount of tear gas into the building, then put on gas masks and rushed into the Woolworth Building one after another.

The building was filled with coughing and vomiting sounds, and the view was obscured by thick smoke, so no wizards came to stop them.

There was a camera on the gas mask Selica was wearing. Through magic detection and infrared detection, she marked several figures in the building. She immediately drew her wand and threw Petrification Curses at those figures one by one.

The other ten or so wizards accompanying the team did the same, and before long, they knocked down all the wizards they found, and then other team members confiscated their wands and tied them all up.

They advanced upward all the way, encountering almost no decent resistance until they reached the fourth floor. This was a closed space and was not attacked by tear gas. The soldiers kicked open the door and were met with a round of spell attacks, but they were wearing spell-protective suits woven with magic metal filaments, and spells that did not exceed a certain energy level could not break through the defense at all.

Being attacked, they were not polite either and immediately raised their rainstorm machine guns to fight back. A machine gun with hundreds of bullets per second was much more useful than a wand. Almost instantly, only wailing sounds were left in the room.

However, fifteen minutes later, Murphy received news from Selica: "The President of the Magical Congress has been captured, and the Magical Congress of the United States has been breached."

Wizards may have many incredible spells, but in terms of team combat capability, there is still a significant gap compared to No-Maj armies. What's more, the Countermeasure Bureau's troops were specifically designed to solve magical incidents. Whether in terms of individual strength or overall tactical literacy, they left ordinary wizards several blocks behind.

Afterward, Selica and the others found the magic node under the Magical Congress, built a ritual magic array around it, opened the magic channel between the US and the UK, and brought the magic node under the control of the Soviet Union's magic node.

Then they split into five or six teams to set up Floo Network portals in major United States cities: New York, Washington, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Houston, etc.

Soviet Union, outside Moscow, a massive archway more than a hundred meters high and several tens of meters wide stood in front of a wide road.

And behind the archway, along that wide sixteen-lane road, unmanned combat vehicles, troop carriers fully loaded with humanoid combat dolls, and fully armed infantry regiments following behind stretched for more than ten kilometers.

Besides Moscow, multiple major traffic arteries around cities like St. Petersburg were blocked, each with armies of almost equal scale assembled.

Relying on the small Floo Network portal network built across the country, in just half a day, the Soviet Union had mobilized more than 500,000 troops, while unmanned combat weapons were completely under Murphy's unified control and command, with faster assembly speeds, and their scale even exceeded that of conventional armies.

Currently, the combat power mobilized by the entire Soviet Union, converted into troop strength, already far exceeded one million. Only waiting for the ultra-long-distance Floo Network portals to major United States cities to be built, these massive armies would strike directly into the heart of the enemy camp.

In contrast, the United States side suddenly suffered an all-around strike. The White House and the Pentagon were evaporated by magic satellites almost immediately. If it weren't for the fact that the United States President hid in a secret location just in case before launching missiles to try to destroy the satellites, he would have been beheaded by now.

But now, the President being alive is actually of no use. Murphy's electromagnetic interference technology, which is decades ahead of the United States, also caused the opponent's command system to fall into a state almost equivalent to being blind and deaf.

Except for nuclear deterrent means that survived barely because they adopted multiple schemes with extremely high fault tolerance, the United States' communication capability to troops in various places was reduced to an extremely low level, so much so that many United States garrison troops still don't know what happened.

This is a war that crushes the opponent in all aspects including force, information, communication, strategy, and command. It is a super "Blitzkrieg" supported by countless magic technologies. Once the war starts, the collapse of the United States will be in the blink of an eye, faster than anyone can imagine.

As a part of supporting this Blitzkrieg strategy, the Countermeasure Bureau wizards are quickly building Floo Network portals.

Washington, more than ten wizards who arrived via Portkeys, on an avenue where a large-scale "Muggle Repelling Spell" had just been released by a magic satellite, used spells to float various modular building materials from the Undetectable Extension Charm cases they carried, and then spliced them together with Reparo and the Permanent Sticking Charm. In just over ten minutes, they built an archway identical in shape to the one in Moscow.

Afterward, they connected it to the Magic Net, joined it to a dedicated Floo Network, and lit the furnace fire. In an instant, rows of runes lit up on both archways in Washington and Moscow simultaneously.

Green flames suddenly burned and spread synchronously inside the two archways, rippling and connecting into one, and gradually gathered toward the center of the archway. After the flames were completely connected, they suddenly dispersed and shrank back around the archway. The next instant, the scene of another country was reflected in the archway.

Thus, an ultra-large Floo Network portal connecting Moscow and Washington was built.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers looked at this scene that exceeded reality in front of them, and were shocked by the amazing effect of "Void Particle" technology. But most of them had already accepted the "Void Particle Technology Special Training" for more than a month and signed the "Loyalty Agreement". Under the influence of the Soul Seed quietly placed in their minds, the soldiers did not have any riots and maintained good order.

The next moment, a voice rang in the minds of all unmanned machines and all soldiers.

"Advance! Trample the enemy country!"
