The next morning, the soldiers wake up to find that the city has been attacked by an unknown "massive weapon" . The soldiers rush to defend the city, but the weapon is not a cannon--it's a "burst" of electricity that can destroy anything in its path. The Ministry of Defense, which is supposed to protect the city from foreign aggression, is powerless to stop the attack. The only thing the Ministry can do is to destroy the weapon, because it is a matter of life and death.
