Chapter 171: From the Deep Sea (3)
Seeing that all the crystal nuclei were about to be collected, but when the time came, Jiang Haihe had to order a retreat, leaving the remaining quarter of the body untreated.
Return to the vehicle with a large bag of crystal nuclei and fire a flare to ensure that the retreat command is received by all soldiers.
All the wounded got into the car, and those who were not injured walked on foot, and the soldiers of the special company, except for the wounded, had to run forward.
The space of the car was given to the wounded people or animals, the animals cleared the way, the cars moved, and the powerful armored vehicles ignored the corpse obstacles along the way, and gradually converged towards the ranks of the second and third battalions.
The second and third battalions, who helped resist the zombies and also gained a lot of crystal nuclei, tore a path with the powerful firepower they carried, and immediately began to attack the corpses after gathering with the first battalion team.
The roar of guns never stopped, and as long as ordinary zombies or mutants stood in their way, they would be torn into pieces of flesh by the metal storm.
Knock knock!
There was a round of shelling from the direction of the Survivor Base in the Demon Capital, the plane had returned, and the Pterodactyl had also fallen, and these shellings were supposed to be fired to kill the fallen Pterodactyl.
Sure enough, several artillery shells slashed over the convoy's head, and seconds later, explosions could be heard from the rear of the convoy.
On the way back, a total of three rounds of calibrated shelling were fired, and at the end, a continuous burst of shelling sounded.
Twenty cannons, firing in turns, tilted a steady stream of shells at the dying pterodactyl.
At the time of the shelling, several of the rockets that had previously attacked the Pterodactyl lost their target and flew all the way to the center of the junction between the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea, and exploded several dozen meters high on the sea surface.
The splash of water and the sound of the sea that could be heard far away were noticed by anomalous creatures on the bottom of the sea, and after a burst of underwater ripples waved, a clear humming sound spread down the sea water and reached Lai Yongkang's ears.
"Huh?" Lai Yongkang was stunned and listened.
He seemed to have heard some strange sounds just now, but when he did, he couldn't hear them again.
There was only the faint sound of artillery shells exploding, and after listening for a while, he asked the several staff officers in the command room with puzzled expressions, "Did you hear any strange sounds just now?" ”
Several non-commissioned officers looked at each other and shook their heads.
Seeing that several people said no, Lai Yongkang nodded and continued to look at the drone shooting screen, just thinking that it was his own auditory hallucination, or a false alarm.
It's just that he made up his mind, after the turmoil subsided this time, he wanted to discuss with Ping Zhiyong and directly use missiles to blow up all the anomalies he found.
Not to mention the pterosaur monster, just because it can make noise and cause a wave of corpses, the anomaly can't be left!
Even if that would cost them a lot of high-level gains, they couldn't afford to take them compared to the risks.
……
Countless bubbles gradually appeared on the surface of the sea where the movement was heard, and the bubbles spread over a large area of the sea, and the turbulent water was also rolling.
Gradually, a huge shadow appeared beneath the surface of the sea, the length of the shadow was at least five hundred meters, and the width was also close to five hundred meters, completely the shadow of a land island.
If there were fishing boats here, the radar on it would definitely show an island moving,
The "island" did not completely emerge from the water, and after a pause, slowly moved in the direction of the mouth of the Yangtze River.
It moves, by the standards of a ship, fast!
Lai Yongkang, who was still concerned about the battle in the city center, soon received a report of an abnormal situation.
"The monitoring radar shows that there is a small island approaching the magic city!" The herald got the message and left.
Lai Yongkang and the non-commissioned officers quickly left the command room and went to the control room of the aircraft carrier, wanting to see what was happening.
With doubts, they came to the control room of the aircraft carrier.
Several soldiers in charge of monitoring the situation adjusted their equipment and used their observation methods on the "island" that was close to the magic capital.
Lai Yongkang, who was slightly anxious, approached the control room, immediately came to the side of the surveillance radar, and asked the soldier in charge of monitoring: "What's the matter?" ”
"Our marine radar has picked up a huge target, and we can't be sure what it is!" The soldier said, pointing to a rounded line on the radar.
Lai Yongkang frowned and asked, "Did the reconnaissance plane and drone be sent out?" ”
"We have just set off, there is magnetic interference, we can only observe at a height of five hundred meters!"
"Connect to the video!"
"Yes!"
Under the operation of more than a dozen soldiers, the video taken by the drone appeared on the large screen of the aircraft carrier.
Immediately afterwards, several people were fortunate enough to see the picture of the "island" exposing its body to the surface of the water due to the depth of the seabed.
On the rough sea, a patch of coral appeared.
The coral was connected to the great shadows beneath the surface of the sea, and its body was so round that it was impossible to tell what it was for a moment.
It also appears to have a strange magnetic field on its body, which interferes with the signal connected by the drone to the signal station, making it impossible for them to observe it up close.
The "island" is still moving towards the demon city, and its body is also moving from time to time, and the whole is gradually revealing the sea.
Seeing this, everyone was not calm, first there was a tide of corpses and then a pterosaur, and now there was a huge and unexplained object from the sea.
The previous development of the magic city was smooth sailing, but was it actually the tranquility before the storm?
Lai Yongkang looked at the island approaching the magic city, immediately called Ping Zhiyong's phone, and activated the independent transmission system of the aircraft carrier, and synchronously transmitted the "island" monitoring picture to Ping Zhiyong.
In the command room of the Demon Capital Survivor Base, everyone looked at the synchronous video from the Yangshan Survivor Base, and their faces were difficult to see.
They could no longer suppress their desire to speak, and fragrant words filled the oppressed room.
I've just solved the pterosaur, and here comes another guy of this size, is this virus producing huge creatures?
Animals have gotten bigger, zombies have gotten bigger, sea creatures have gotten bigger, but humans haven't gotten bigger!
It's just that if people get bigger, most of their weapons will be unusable, and they will become unclothed to wear......
Ping Zhiyong looked at the picture on the tablet, his expression did not show much panic, the first impact of the news brought to him by the pterosaur was far greater than this huge unknown object.
Now, he can face this unexpected situation calmly!
In the video shot by the drone, the "island" is moving, and its back is gradually revealed.
On a coral reef, there are countless small fish and shrimp, as well as huge dark red barnacles with sea water in their inner hollows.
The camera zooms in and you can see the seawater-covered hole inside the barnacle, with some traces of wriggling.
The bumpy shots can't make them see clearly, just seeing these is enough!
Ping Zhiyong, who had become pampered again, slowly spoke, "Let the vehicle-mounted ballistic missiles prepare and concentrate their firepower on this target!" ”
The sergeant in the room was suddenly silent, and then, the commander of the Rocket Army got up, took the key he carried with him, and walked out.
As soon as he walked to the door, he stopped again, turned around and asked, "What kind of warhead to use?" ”
Ping Zhiyong's eyes kept staring at the "island" on the screen, and he said without raising his eyelids: "Conventional warheads are the most powerful." ”
