Chapter 448: The Price On
The Lightning Beast floats and moves at a relatively stationary speed with the convoy of armed forces. Its electric right arm swung a thick electric whip, and after the whip was collected, its right arm swung out again, and the electric whip was pumped straight towards the console of car No. 1!
"This enemy has a lot of intelligence, and it knows that if you kill the driver, you will lose control of the armed car!" Hicks was shocked, he didn't have time to hesitate, and a big stride rushed to the console at the front of the car, stopping between the electric whip and the driver.
The speed of the whip was so fast that Hicks only had time to throw his right fist. His right fist was wrapped in pale blue energy, and the next moment it suddenly touched the blue-white electric whip.
The electric whip containing ultra-high voltage electricity inside flung in front of Hicks's fist, and suddenly came to an eerie halt. The Lightning Storm was expressionless, and its shock was not evident from his light-streaked eyes.
Hicks opened his mouth and slammed the five fingers of his right hand into the electric whip that had stopped moving in front of his right hand 5 centimeters. The high-voltage current did not rush into Hicks's right hand and destroy his body, he held the electric whip without doing anything, and his muscles pulled the other end of the electric whip!
The lightning beast was forcibly pulled in front of Hicks, and he was greeted by Hicks's iron fist that gathered ten percent of his strength! This punch hit the surface of the lightning beast's facial armor directly, and several cracks were made on it.
The Lightning Beast's ability is a third-order "Lightning Incarnation", an ability that is impossible for creatures like "humans". When the Lightning Storm gains this ability, it loses its original body and other abilities, and becomes a new life. Its body is a highly concentrated plasma field, and its body is lightning bolts, and touching it is equivalent to being struck by lightning. And it can mobilize the electrical energy in its body to condense into a weapon such as an electric whip to expand its attack range.
Hicks threw a punch in the face of the lightning beast, which should have been hit by the ultra-high voltage current in turn, but he was unscathed, and even grabbed the armor of the lightning beast's "neck".
The Lightning Storm panicked, desperately trying to control the ejection of electrical pulses beneath its torso to free itself from the human's grasp. To its horror, its current pulses could only be sprayed on the surface of the armor beneath its torso, and it could no longer squeeze an inch out of the armor.
"What kind of ability is this?" A strong sense of fear welled up in the Lightning Beast's heart. This is the first time that it has been restrained and free after losing its body and sublimating into a lightning body, and the first time it has been shocked to find that it is not invincible!
Hicks grinned, a smile that was both angry and sneering.
"This is the first time for you, when I shrink the range of 'zone control' to within two meters, all energy movement will come to a standstill! You can't escape! ”
"Bring the insulating cloth!"
Hicks roared, and the elite soldiers watching the battle in the rear immediately moved, and in less than 10 seconds, two huge black insulating cloths were delivered.
Hicks grabbed the Lightning Storm by the neck and grabbed it and smashed it against the insulating cloth. The soldier took the four corners of the insulating cloth and folded it, pressed the lightning storm cover of the pure lightning body under the insulating cloth, sealed the edge of the insulating cloth with super glue, and then took another piece of insulating cloth to firmly wrap the first layer of insulating cloth to complete the firm seal.
"Humph!" Hicks ordered the soldiers to put the insulating cloth away, and captured the third-order lightning beast alive.
This is not the first time General Hicks has shown his abilities in front of his own men. There's more than one third-tier ability, and it trusts the soldiers who get along day and night when they're out on the road, so it's not worried about revealing your cards.
And the ability of "zone control" alone is used flexibly and precisely by him, which is already too strong. As a special domain-type ability, Area Control has a range of 10 meters, and the greater the range, the less powerful it is, and the ability to apply pressure or pull in any direction within the area; From the shaping of a curved blade to the suppression of the movement of other creatures, the effect depends on the hardness, toughness and kinetic energy of the substance.
Only for "energy", "zone control" within two meters is absolute control! The energy released by other creatures is immobile in the area, and it cannot be retracted; If Hicks compressed the "area control" to a thin layer around his body, the lightning beast's electric current, which was comparable to the power of natural lightning, would not be able to rush into Hicks' body at all.
This is the encounter of fate, the lightning storm beast is an almost invincible creature in the third-order life, but it was restrained by Hicks's ability, and it was killed in a single shot.
Hicks used "zone control" to gather the glass shards in one place, controlling the broken half of the front window to rise to it, and precisely piecing together the large hole that leaked on the other side. When the squeezing force between the countless glass shards was perfectly balanced, he only had to stand nearby and maintain his weak ability.
A total of 40 seconds elapsed from the time the anomaly occurred to the time it ended. These 40 seconds were the armed convoy without Hicks' command, and in case of emergency, Hicks' deputy, the adjutant in the No. 3 armed car, gave orders.
By the time Hicks took over command of the convoy afterwards, the camp had shrunk into a ladder. The four armed vehicles in the rear and on both flanks had no place to shrink anymore, and the breakthrough of the car formation in the direction of 12 o'clock was also not optimistic due to the disturbance of the lightning beasts.
Even Hicks, who has been through a lot of battles, feels extremely difficult to deal with this situation. No, it can't be described as tricky anymore, the armed convoy has reached a desperate situation where there is no room for maneuver!
The current speed of the armed convoy is about 160 kilometers per hour, and it will take more time to speed up again, and tear up more space with double firepower, but how many seconds can the rear and wings last?
Now there are more than a dozen soldiers standing on the roof of the armed vehicles in the rear and on both wings, and they climb on the roof of the vehicles and shoot with electromagnetic kinetic energy rifles, which can kill an enemy who is close to the armed vehicles. The roof of the armed vehicle is so big, and the firepower of a dozen electromagnetic kinetic energy rifles is just a drop in the bucket, which is the last unwilling struggle of the soldiers.
"In a desperate situation, there should be a solution to a desperate situation."
Hicks silently recited these words, and suddenly raised his eyes, which flashed with strong conviction.
He hasn't lost yet, and he still has a final hole card!
"Car No. 6, I'm Hicks," Hicks said in a deep voice, "This is the supreme order, throw away the 'boneless' parts stored in your rear compartment." ”
"General Hicks......" came the voice of the captain of the sixth team on the other end of the headset. The emotions in his voice were too complicated for Hicks to tell if the guy was hesitant to abandon their mission, or if he was crying out at the sight of hope in despair.
"Execute the order now! I'll take on the responsibility above, and use the discarded boneless parts as bait to disperse the enemies surrounding the convoy. ”
"Yes, General!"
