Human countries have created nuclear weapons that can destroy the world. Is it really all that far-fetched that they can create defense system against supernatural beings with current technology?

@Palmito That's assuming the U.S. is an enemy of the Underworld and that they can make a move against a supernatural faction so recklessly. From what Magnus said, it seems like there are certain figures in the U.S. that know about the supernatural world. That's not strange as we have had humans who have knowledge or connections with the supernatural world. The higher-ups in most countries most likely know about the supernatural beings but keep quiet about it to the general populace. But even though they have knowledge of the supernatural world, they let the supernatural world do as it pleases as long as it doesn't heavily affect the human world.

But since Trihexa, all of the major powers of the human world have been put on alert and while they aren't hostile to the supernatural world they are still preparing themselves to defend against it. Because what happens when a supernatural event occurs that affects the human world as much as it does the supernatural world? They can't just turn a blind eye to it anymore and need to be prepared just in case.
