Chapter 13: Dream of Destruction ※ Munakata's determination
Time goes back to two hours ago.
PM2:30
"You bastard, try this-"
Since the last attack on the Kiri Elrods worked, New Town has become more and more fond of the one-hit escape tactic.
"Not hiding?"
Witnessing the launch of the two missiles, both accurately hit the monster's abdomen, Xincheng muttered.
"What's wrong? Newcastle. ”
Dagu also completed the task accurately, and when he heard Xincheng's self-talk, he asked with concern.
"Oh, nothing~"
Xincheng's face was faintly lost.
It's like playing a game, and I worked hard to challenge the final boss with LV99, only to find that the enemy was a Xibei that shattered at the first touch, which means that all my previous efforts were in vain, and no one will be happy.
"Wait!"
The two were about to return home, when Dagu suddenly said, "He swallowed the missile!" ”
---------------------------------------------------
This is a world without sound
"Where is this?"
Mo Yu looked around blankly.
The sky is obscured by thick dark clouds, which makes people feel uneasy.
The houses not far away were crushed by strong pressure from nowhere. Only a few remnants of the towers have become the symbol of the survivors of the catastrophe.
The collapsed masonry obscured the once-bustling road, and the ground was unusually twisted in countless charred materials.
From time to time, the wind blows, and there is a disgusting rancid smell.
There is no vitality, only a dead world, and countless harmful substances floating in the air that cannot be seen by the naked eye.
"What the hell is going on here?"
Mo Yu was amazed by this apocalyptic scene.
Climbing the tower not far away, Mo Yu's eyes showed a shocking scene.
Surrounded by an endless desert, the wreckage of a huge city, in the afterglow of the setting sun, reveals the beauty of intoxicating despair.
The collapsed bell tower was fortunately not damaged, and the steel timer was still faithfully fulfilling its duty.
"Scratch!"
The sound of the gears snapping is unusually clear.
Mo Yu greeted the prestige, and the hour hand stayed precisely at 6 o'clock.
"Bell~Bell~Bell~Bell~Bell~Bell~~"
Six bells rang from the distant sky, piercing Mo Yu's eardrums, deep into his mind, and painful into the bone marrow~
"Ahhhh
······
"Senior, what's wrong with you?"
When I opened my eyes, Minako's concerned face.
"Whew... Whew..."
Mo Yu gasped heavily, reached out and touched it, and his clothes were soaked.
"What time is it?"
"It's just 3 o'clock, what's wrong"
"I have a bad feeling!"
Mo Yu's face was serious, this was the first time Minako had seen him so serious.
===================================================
PM3:40
Temporary operational command room.
This operation is a key project of TPC.
Although Megumi was unable to convince Director Sawai about whether to extend the investigation period, he tried his best to achieve something else.
A large number of senior researchers were dispatched to this operation, and the samples of the monster's cells were taken in the first wave of investigation in the morning, and now the specific data of the monster cells has been turned into a report and handed over to every official in the communications conference.
"According to our survey. This monster is not a living monster in the traditional sense. ”
Zong Fangcheng talked eloquently.
"The monster's cellular studies have shown that. The cells of this monster have amazing recovery powers. You can take a look at this-"
On the screen is an experimental diagram of the monster cells
A small piece of monster body tissue was put into a culture medium with a large amount of strong sulfuric acid, and a large number of cells died one after another, but the cells that survived by luck actually began to regenerate in a very short period of time, but the appearance was a little strange. They are connected to each other to form a small flocculent object that holds the surface where the sulfuric acid meets the tissues of the body.
"According to Dr. Kenki's findings, these monster cells are extremely adaptable to the environment. In order to cope with the harsh environment of sulfuric acid, they spontaneously formed a layer of protective tissue, which can not only isolate the damage of sulfuric acid, but also absorb some components of the culture medium and even sulfuric acid itself for growth. ”
"Keep it simple, Captain Munakata." Director Yoshioka spoke impatiently, wondering when his old subordinate had become so verbose.
The rest remained silent, acquiescing to Director Yoshioka's words.
"Tell us directly how this information will help you in making a battle plan."
"In short, due to the cellular nature of the monster itself, it is impossible to kill it with conventional weapons. Not only that, but the monster's body will become more and more powerful as we continue to attack. ”
[The stronger the opponent is, this is not easy to do~]
Hearing Munakata's conversation, Yoshioka began to knock on the folding fan in his hand uneasily.
"Originally, our original plan A was to set a trap in the target 206,190 area."
“206,190···”
Director Yoshioka sounds familiar.
"It happens to be the aquaculture factory in the south of Beichuan City, and the scale is quite large."
Munakata brought his plans together, and the monitor presented the simulated battle situation in front of everyone.
"Use a flying machine as bait to lure monsters into the farm. The aluminium jammers scattered here in advance, combined with a thermoelectric attack, can be eliminated. ”
At first glance, it was indeed a very good battle plan, but it was canceled by Zongfang, and everyone knew that Zongfang had its own reasons, so they waited for him to continue.
"This plan is tactically feasible."
Zong Fang raised the report in his hand,
"If I hadn't had this report, I would probably have followed it."
At this moment, in Zongfang's heart, infinite reverence rose for Megumi Juma.
[Thankfully, I'm glad that Megumi Kurama has won over more researchers, otherwise I would have to make a big deal out of this.] 】
Cleaning up his mind, Munakata continued.
"In the actual analysis, we found that there was a huge hole in this tactic - that is, how can we determine that we can kill the monster?"
"Regeneration, electricity, heat – I see!"
Yoshioka had experienced a hundred battles and immediately understood the meaning of Munakata.
"The speed at which the monster's cells recover is far faster than the rate at which they are destroyed. If you can't kill it in one hit, it will only continue to strengthen the monster's abilities. What you probably mean is to set the monster on fire and let it burn on its own. But if the temperature can't reach the melting point of the monster cells, it's all useless—"
"That's it!" Munakata nodded, "The upper limit of the temperature of the thermoelectric attack is only 800°C, which is still quite far from the ignition point of the monster's cells at 1000°C, so we temporarily changed it to Plan B. ”
"Plan B is a supplement to Plan A. Please see here. ”
The place that Zong Fang Chengyi pointed to was the Tianyuan City Natural Gas Plant, a few kilometers away from the Beichuan Farm.
"Here, hundreds of tons of liquefied natural gas are stored. According to observations, the monster is extremely gluttonous and swallows everything in its stomach. Even the missiles we fired before were no exception. Plan B takes advantage of this. ”
"From here—"
On the tactical simulator, GutSwing2 hoisted an LNG tank.
"Here—"
The liquefied gas tank was delivered to the monster and swallowed by the monster.
"The next thing is that the main content of Plan A remains the same. When an electrothermal attack is launched, the external current is not so much a means of attack as a means of detonation. Tons of liquefied natural gas inside are detonated, and the heat of hundreds of millions of joules will completely burn the monster cells in an instant. ”
As soon as Munakata's voice fell, the big red letters "MISSIONCOMPLETE" appeared on the tactical simulator.
"Nice plan. Is the time already set? ”
"Yes! It's just 4:30 p.m. With this victory, we want to prove to people that we at TPC are capable of keeping them safe. ”
