richard looked at the stats displayed on the interface as he entered the command center. the staffers inside, recognizing his presence, snapped to attention, offering a crisp salute. richard acknowledged their gesture with a casual wave, indicating for them to resume their duties.

walking through the command center, he observed the flurry of activity around him. screens displayed various data streams, maps highlighted strategic locations, and personnel communicated updates and orders.

mark was the first to approach him.

”so, how did the visit to our magic user go?” mark asked.

”she woke up, don’t remember anything, showed her some footage of her slaughtering our men and she snapped,” richard explained simply.

mark nodded, absorbing richard’s succinct summary. ”that’s a tough break. any idea what we’re going to do with her now?” he inquired, concern evident in his tone.

richard paused, considering the situation. ”for now, she’s under heavy sedation and surveillance. we’ll keep monitoring her condition and mental state. our next steps depend on whether she regains any of her memories or control over her abilities,” he said and continued.

”she’s quite strong, possibly stronger than andrea. if we can get her to work on our side,?it could be a significant advantage. but it’s a delicate situation, and we need to handle it with care,” richard added thoughtfully.

”hmm...the pill was extracted, right? that meant lin feng won’t be able to track her?” mark inquired.

sara, still slightly pouting but professional, turned her attention back to the console. ”starting countdown for minuteman launch,” she announced, her voice steady.

the large screen at the front of the command center displayed the live feed of the missile silo, where the lgm-30 minuteman was ready for launch. the countdown began, and the numbers ticked down methodically.

”10... 9... 8...” sara counted down, her voice resonating in the room. ”3... 2... 1... launch,” sara finished.

the screen showed the missile as it lifted off, the flames from its thrusters illuminating the dark silo. the room was silent except for the soft hum of the machinery and the distant roar of the rocket.

”minuteman is airborne. estimated time to target: 30 minutes,” one of the technicians reported.

richard nodded, watching as the missile made its way toward new york city.

”understood, sir,” the technician replied.

as the missile traveled, richard turned his attention back to the list sara had provided. ”after new york, we’ll focus on s?o paulo. prepare the next set of missiles and ensure we have accurate targeting data...”

29 minutes later.

suddenly, an alarm blared throughout the room... the large screen displayed a warning: the minuteman was being locked onto by an unknown source.

”sir, the missile is being targeted,” one of the technicians announced.

richard’s brows furrowed in concern. ”by what? can we identify the source?” he asked, stepping closer to the screen.

the technicians scrambled to analyze the data. ”we’re trying to pinpoint the source, sir. it seems to be an external locking system, not from our end.”

sara quickly joined the analysis, her fingers flying over the console. ”the lock appears to be coming from a satellite orbit. it’s sophisticated, possibly military-grade.”

richard weighed his options. ”can we override it? or change the missile’s course?”

the team worked furiously, attempting to regain control of the missile. ”we’re trying, sir, but the lock is strong. it’s resisting our override commands.”

”keep trying,” richard urged, his gaze not leaving the screen. ”shit...is it the work of the us armed forces?”
